XTC "I'd Like That" (1999)

[@wolfgamemusicvideo4532]

Its a travesty that this song isn't on spotify

[@CorpusFisty]

So annoying!

[@augustusbetucius2931]

Why isn't it? That's daft!

[@mcsuibhne005]

Yeah... I'd like that !

[@danielbarkdoll9024]

Yes it is

WHERE

[@geminiaxelrod4592]

Heard this song years ago on "Me, Myself & Irene". Don't know why it got permanently stuck in my memory warehouse, but it makes me happy whenever i hear it. It reminds me of how things were before the towers fell...before we lost our trust & faith in one another. We weren't perfect, but things didn't seem so bleak either. I miss those days.

[@meganbella8262]

Me too! I’m always singing this song. Never actually heard it anywhere besides that movie haha. Great song

[@screwyootube1]

If XTC would get back together... I'd like that. :)

Sometimes, I really am convinced that XTC was the greatest band that ever existed.

[@32INCHSTRIPER]

Sometimes?

[@johntaylor9988]

With the exception of the Beatles I'd fully agree - though XTC is Number one in my heart by a mile, my head and musician self says Beatles have them by a plectrum.

[@arieldenis]

Me too...

[@monkeburnswell3349]

@@johntaylor9988 i share your love for the Beatles, but since i didn't grow up with them XTC was my 2nd Beatles. i remember running up the stairs to the record shop to get my copy of the import of Skylarking. the Dukes of Stratosphere was my Sgt. Pepper. the Beatles are still #1 but XTC are up there

[@helenkramer]

yes. & most under appreciated, too.

I love how the song has those little chord resolutions on the sunflower line ☺

[@als3984]

My favorite too! 😊😊

[@FoulMouthFishing666]

Nothing better than newer (90s-00s) music that sounds like it was made in the golden era of music. Thats how you make an instant classic!

[@bvowens]

Love XTC since my youth. Great songwriting and great performance

[@eastlake93]

In 1999, before I was married, it was me, my brand new Buick Regal, and this song riding the 401 hwy in Ontario. Good life.

at 1:39 that eerie note is just amazing, I love it so much

Thank God for KZbin. Otherwise I would have sworn that this song was just a fever dream.

[@blackiefitzpatrick6611]

Lovely Tune from A great band.

[@MayaState]

One of the best soundtracks of all time, along with Dumb and Dumber

[@jtaco4101]

I adore the dumb and dumber soundtrack. Farrelly brothers are great with music. Kingpin pretty good too.

legit just came here from it, swear this song is about lsd

Perfect pop song

Definitely.

Used to listen to this song just about every night as a toddler- I called it “Ha Ha” I don’t think I’ve heard it since my childhood but it’s strange how these things stick with you for so long

This could easily be a Paul McCartney song. The guitar parts remind me of “Two of Us”.

[@reid.7680]

Brian Wilson too!

Another Day as well.

[@johnb9981]

Yes, musically it kind of sounds like a beatle's song, but the singer sounds just like Paul, like exactly.

[@yourmomshouse3232]

Sounds like Roy Orbison to me

Sorry, It's XTC, NOT the Beatles.........

Andy Partridge channeling McCartney awesome song

[@kasperg5634]

Neither the greatest musicians nor singers to my mind... but for intelligent and often beautiful lyrics and, consistently, THE best melodies in ANY group for the last 40 years XTC works for me. Along with Radiohead.

[@villababy8748]

Currently my favorite XTC song

[@ABreejikun]

So magical

My second-favorite band after ... those four guys from Liverpool.

[@bonzodog6872]

not one of their best

[@screwyootube1]

I agree. There's no pleasing everyone, but from what I've noticed, the % down is usually at 2-3% for many of the music clips I've seen. It IS up to 2% now, but I think of it as the YT-equivalent of Metacritic's "generally well-received". I LOVE the acoustic strumming in this!

[@bigdogboos1]

you must be new to the internet lol

[@JustDoYou33]

Right like how the fuck would someone even get here to NOT like this? Lmao

[@absolutelypositively]

Interesting all the comparisons to McCartney. If Paul had written and recorded this song, it would have been his first hit in decades. The Beatles were still together when I was a kid. The first 45 I ever owned was ‘Hey Jude,’ in 1968. And I was a 10 year old seasoned vet by then. You couldn’t turn on the radio in say, 1966-67 and not hear The Fab Four. I was lucky. But since say, 1989, I’ve not once popped a Beatles album/CD/tape into the stereo at home or in the car. XTC? That’s a different story. Thank you Andy, Colin and Co. You’ve definitely become my adult Beatles. A feast for my ears. You deserve much more praise than you’ve received. Perhaps it’s better that way. XTC/Dukes songwriting speaks for itself. . Again, I was lucky. 👏🏻🎸
