Richard Ashcroft

i was looking for a song to dedicate to Boyd, and I thought about this one, because we both love it so much and it is his favorite richard aschroft song, probably one of my favorites too although I have more than one favorite....





Then I found a WHOLE BUNCH of b-sides that I had never heard before as well as some other tracks too, and I put two in my sig as you can plainly see all over the message board.... but these two almost made my sig too,











I could listen to Richard all night long...... he is on my "must see live" list.


I had this song in my sig for a while:





And incase you dont know who Richard Ashcroft is, Here he is with his Band, The Verve



If you have never heard this song before, Do you live under a rock?

This is the video that made me want to hear more of his music, and don't you just love how he is like just bumping into everyone HAHA such a classic.

Mad Love To You Richard Ashcroft~~~~

Here are some personal favorites of mine if anyone is interested:




Just..., beautiful.




The lyrics.

.... In a neon wilderness,.... he was restless... escape lonliness.... find a new address.... Stood before I sink ....In a neon wilderness .......Spill my last drink .....Yeah, he was restless ....Say good-bye to my new friends

Escape from loneliness ...I found a new address ....In the last room ....I hear a boom ......Someone else's distress




^^^Man, I can dig on that groove.



Im Like fish with legs... I fell from the tree.... I made a rocket... I swam the ocean... I saw the moon.... I see the universe and beyond, I see you, I see me, that's my reality.....





Just... freakin awesome.






Then there is this track....,I love to sing this song...




This song is awesome as well....makes me feel.... so much,.




Here are a couple from his latest album that I absolutely loved:


This song... makes me want to go freakin nuts ... what a rush! I can imagine this live in an amphitheater... dude rock the house!



love love love love





There is another song that touches me and just wowz me every time, it's from Human Conditions (solo album)

but instead of posting a video which I cant find a decent one, i shall leave you with lyrics.


Sometimes you hold the world in your hands
Sometimes the world it baffles you with plans
Some days you drift oh so easy and free
Some nights you sleep in blissful harmony

How do we leave the wreckage of our lives?
How do you leave the past out in the night?
Don't throw away the pictures that give you a smile
Don't throw away the memories that make you cry

I saw God in the numbers


I know that I could learn a little harder
There's so much that I want to read and know
But maybe I'm a little lazy
Maybe I don't really want to know

I saw God in the numbers


The more I learn of history the more I hate it
'Cos we're repeating things we did a thousand years ago
We're building palaces of fortune in the sky
There's an underclass dying whilst we smile

I saw God in the numbers

I don't wanna




Then there were his two collaborations:
