Jadedragon, that shameful comment is totally unfair and shows your complete ignorance about Scottish society. I think you'll find we also have a fair number of psychopaths, schizophrenics, paranoids, inadequates and general-purpose nut jobs. So before you post anything else on this site try and get your facts straight!
scottishwillie cracks me up with remarks like this. as i listened and read the lyrics, all i could think was the song is made worthwhile because of the lyrics-

Waking Hours is a very solid album. Worth seeking out on Apple Music or Spotify if you're seeking something pretty great to listen to.

Great band great song great memories and now a brand new song,listen to it!!!
Thanks for playing. one of my favorite songs 
Best Scottish band ever. Sardonic lyrics, great tunes, brilliant live too. The most under-rated band I can think of. Should have been huge.
Waking Hours is a very solid album. Worth seeking out on Apple Music or Spotify if you're seeking something pretty great to listen to.
Del Amitri reformed again in July 2018, playing eight dates in seven UK cities. Their live set included a new song, 'You Can't Go Back', and a cover of Twenty One Pilots' hit song, "Heathens". In July 2018, Currie said that a new group album and further activity was possible.
A clear 10. wonderful song.
I think this is the first time I've heard the Dels on RP. Nice to hear!

Could easily be re-titled "Ballad of a clinically depressed scotsman"

So before you post anything else on this site try and get your facts straight!Thanks for playing this. It's one of my all time favorites and a lost classic. I have a lot of history with this song. Some of the best lyrics ever.
I love this song...nice way to sign off for me. Thanks for lovely music RP!

That's probably the number of times it's been played.

Shame on you RP listeners :)
Better than anything else I've heard of theirs.
I've not really listened to the lyrics of this before, but they're pretty bang on, if a little depressing. 6 from the Nottingham jury.

Maybe it's more about the band than RP...apathy is the toughest critic to overcome.
Great Song, makes my evening:)
Thanks Bill!!

Really like these Scots.
Must be the mandolin.
The repetoire of this group could easily get massive rotation here if I could only upload a dozen songs or so ...
This is a really great song. Could easily be re-titled "Ballad of a clinically depressed scotsman", but I still love it.

Yes.
