What I’m listening to on this sunny Saturday of Indian Summer:
Teenage Fanclub’s “Ain’t That Enough” (from their album Songs from Northern Britain).
Teenage Fanclub’s “Ain’t That Enough” (from their album Songs from Northern Britain).
3 minutes and 42 seconds of pure melody and lush harmonies combining to create a pop poem that never leaves me indifferent (dare I say it makes my heart soar?).
For me, a sunrise is quite often enough.
Is British music so good because their food is so bad? Consider their cross-channel rivals, the French, who have taken cuisine to the highest heights, yet their popular music is, to put it politely, unpalatable… obviously no country can be strong in every artistic domain, but could there be some sort of inverse relationship between the ear and the stomach? I welcome your thoughts on this.
Meanwhile, I’ll share the delicious TF lyrics with you, although without the music it’s bit like having a mouth-watering meal put before a man with no nose… although if you click on the title of this post, it will take you to the album on Amazon where you can scroll down and hear a sample.

If you can I wish you would
Only if you feel you should
Bring your loving over
All adds up with circumstance
All stood up with taking stands
Bring your loving over
Highlights glisten
Silence listens
Days that found you
Embrace that found you
Here is a sunrise Ain’t that enough?
True as a clear sky, ain't that enough?
Toy town feelings here to remind you
Summers in the city do what you gotta do
Time can only make demands
Fill it up with grains of sand
Bring your loving over
Highlights glisten
Silence listens
Days that found you
Embrace that found you
Here is a sunrise Ain’t that enough?
True as a clear sky, ain't that enough?
Toy town feelings here to remind you
Summers in the city do what you gotta do
Toy town feelings whose gonna argue
Summers in the city Summers in the city
