Man, this band. Like, look at how many parts there are to this absolute masterpiece. You listen to it and it's a catchy as hell rock thumper. But once you sit down and go through each part, you really start to see and understand the sheer genius behind the writing of it. I've been trying to learn some Wildhearts tunes, some of them are just phenomenally tricky! These guys are on a whole other level. Remember the story of Wyld Stallyns in Bill & Ted? and how they weren't fully appreciated in their own time? Well as much as The Wildhearts are loved by so so many of us, they should be monster big. Like bigger than Foo Fighters or QOTSA big. They fucking deserve it on sheer quality of music alone. Needless to say, I fucking love the Wildhearts. Wildheart forever.

Bill : Ted, while I agree that, in time, our band will be most triumphant. The truth is, Wyld Stallyns will never be a super band until we have Eddie Van Halen on guitar. Ted : Yes, Bill. But, I do not believe we will get Eddie Van Halen until we have a triumphant video. Bill : Ted, it's pointless to have a triumphant video before we even have decent instruments. Ted : Well, how can we have decent instruments when we don't really even know how to play? Bill : That is why we NEED Eddie Van Halen! Ted : And THAT is why we need a triumphant video. Bill , Ted : EXCELLENT!

Ive never tried to learn wildhearts stuff, but i have often thought..jeez, thats lots of riffs and variations, not sure my brain can take it 😅

[@RDMN_]

Those opening notes send a chill down my spine every time, love it!

[@alastairjulie1421]

Took the words out of my mouth

[@merhabene]

@@alastairjulie1421 Me to from the first time I heard it back in the day.

[@Joeskint]

I recall hearing this song for the first time ever at the Krazy House in Liverpool in 1992 when The Wildhearts were supporting Love/Hate and the longer the song continued the bigger my grin got - I have no recollection of watching the headliners but by the same time the following year I'd seen The Wildhearts live another five times, it was one of the best years of my life 😎

[@aripea1980]

One of my favourite songs to start a good car journey, absolutely love it! Definitely in my top 5 Wildhearts tunes! My top 5 has about 60 songs in it, though. :)

[@steventhomas231]

Brought back some fond memories this.

[@chrisdrake447]

What a great freekin’ riff. Great too to see it up close - these play-through are a joy! Cheers CJ...

[@jtarant]

Fantastic! What a great song, brings back good memories. Thank you CJ!! Please play I Wanna Go Where the People Go, I'd love to see that one

[@Lyme_lyte]

The first song I ever heard you lot play and instantly captured. Then had wait what felt like an eternity for you to release mondo. Thank you CJ for doing this.

[@nathanbriggs6098]

Bloody hell!!! I'm back to being 19 again!!! Outstanding tune in a career of outstanding tunes!

[@guyjessop-braithwaite5296]

Great stuff. Just need Mr McCormack to do some bass play through. Request: Shame On Me please.

[@alastairbirch1342]

He makes that thing sound like an orchestra.

[@MegaThamuz]

This is a monster wildhearts song, LOVE THIS! Another epic is Girlfriend Clothes. CJ PLEASE DO THAT SONG NEXT! 🙏🤘🏻

[@theslipperysalmon4559]

DIAGNOSIS!!!....maybe loved it 🤘🤘🤘

[@katiewray2525]

This phenomenal band sucked me RIGHT in around 1999, and they ARE STILL the best band that ever existed!! Their songs never get old!!!!! The bst of bands come and go, but no one can even TOUCH the Wildhearts!!!!! Manics come a close second though lol!

[@arnoldjones]

Great! Everlone next?!

[@AliSeasider]

Absolutely superb. And we could hear Chris’ guitar. Haha, just joking Chris. If we’re doing requests…. Can I hear PissJoy?

[@glennmoran4281]

Awesome 👌

[@nickwelch1148]

Thanks so much CJ! This is all my all-time favourite song and something I've been noodling away on my guitar since I was 18 trying to learn. 24 years later I now realise I've been playing it wrong ;). Cracking tune - love it! Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to hear those opening notes live again one day soon

[@simonl1785]

Excellent

[@shannonjones3714]

What a treat! Thank you for sharing this with us!

[@fernandoprivitera573]

fantásticos y únicos!!! ...The Wildhearts!!!!

[@catsmeow1037]

Excellent stuff cant wait to see you guys it's been too long.

[@teznade13]

Thats always been one of my favourites. Thanks for doing these, even though I don't have a prayer of doing the last solo its fun to try...

[@brave_gravity]

Isn't it crazy how much thought goes into a Wildhearts song? Ginger will never get the credit he deserves as a songwriter. CJ is one of my all time Favourite guitarists too. Everything is for the taste and betterment of the song. Nothing where it shouldn't be. They are miles ahead of everyone. They were way head of the pack in the 90's. Look at the songs they were releasing that decade! AA decade where there was problems with addiction etc also. But look at the re release of the PHUQ album. It's got fishing for Luckies (a fanclub only release at the time it initially came out!) mixed with the PHUQ as we knew it. This was before SP released Mellon Collie, and were revered for it. If you ask me, (and no one is!) but the original plan for PHUQ is even better. Sheer genius. And hey, i know they have their issues and like most relationships, they are not always gonna get along. But as long as Ginger is writing the songs, I'll always listen. I would just really love the line up with CJ and Ritch and Danny (or Scott, or Jon really!) to tour again and most of all, just be cool with each other. They deserve the world for what they've given us down the years!

[@TiberiusWallace]

CJ's got such a light touch on his fretting,.

[@mariel9180]

My fave! Thanks CJ 🤩

[@ViolenceJackie]

God dammit, been playing that intro wrong for 15 years; slide up from first fret- who knew? Love ya Ceej.

[@andyn72]

Awesome!

[@xVinceCx]

I LUV this mate! It's so great to see it played like this so I can follow along compared to when your amp is blowing my eardrums out of my skull (also good).

[@chrisflynn9768]

Don't be Happy was the best Wildhearts Album. A band's early years are always the best.... No thought goes into it. Love this 'Album' / EP. Bam was amazing. Got a feeling he was probably bad live

[@chrisflynn9768]

One of the keys to good songwriting is constantly listening to music.... 16 hours a day. New bands. New music. The other key is taking mind-altering drugs like LSD and living life like you've never lived it. Music is a story about the journey. If a songwriter goes on a life journey where they experience new things then the music will come to them. If the songwriter stops journeying then they will eventually start looking for the music. They won't find what they are looking for. Thi EP had the magic. It was about making sense of the world around them. Pure Journey.

[@chris-wz5ql]

Awesome play through again Cj. When’s Ginger gonna do one of these 🤔?

[@theknightwhosaysni1356]

The best 1min 16 secs intro in rock

[@Charlzhen]

Please do some more songs 😀

[@arielacarlos757]

[@rocket69218]
