Pulp - Do You Remember The First Time? Lyrics

I didn't read the lyrics at the beginning, I simply love the melody, this is a pretty good song. I felt so special when I read the lyrics, so damn sexy but so real...

These lyrics kinda wind me up... 'I don't care if you screw him as long as you save a piece for me'. How pathetic can a man be?

If you are under 20 and reading this. Enjoy your youth, party, dance and take every opportunity. Time speeds up after 20 and in a blink you are 40. Enjoy your time in the sun. Signing off. Brit pop kid age 18 in 1995

Awesome band! https://youtu.be/a4yTfqEqufU👈🏻🕺

Takes me back to the days when I lived in England in the 90's, I wish I could have been at a festival to see them play this song live, it would have been amazing, playing it full blast in my headphones is amazing, I can feel the magic energy, makes me feel like I'm there! Come to Transmit in Glasgow please Pulp!

There are bands that I have a terrible effort to listen to. I love them to death, I grew up with their music. Mainly they are The Cure, Pulp, Prefab Sprout and The Smith. The problem is that they remind me of happy times, without smartphones, without voice messages, when the words spoken directly mattered, when there was no hatred and fear and, during a simple train trip, it was possible to meet a girl. I'm sorry for the kids today, who can't even imagine how pleasant it was to be together. Obviously things change, it's normal, but I'm now 55, I just observe, I don't like what I see.

Pulp take you back to the 90's like nobody else

My parents are such prudes that they labeled this song "trash" simply because of the suggestive lyrics. 🙄 They have such a skewed idea of what art is.

i'm nineteen and this song embodies that feeling of restlessness that you sometimes get when you're that young... pulp really just have that air of freedom around them. i get the similar feeling when i listen to the libertines. love them both very much

Yeah they both definitel have that quality.

Never was into him before but in my old age..it hits home...this and common people..what a talent.songs you feel and not just hear

What even is this????

Does anyone know who made this music video? Thanks!

best british band ever....best brit singer ever

Absolutely loved Pulp and Jarvis...nothing like them since. Bring back my teen years 90s forever

Jarvis a lyrical genius. In the day. Shame we get old.

Very good but odd song. Yes it is getting late.

Reminds me of my teenage years in Carlisle

I lv this band.

Do the you remember the worse time? I cant remember the first time?

Who directed this?

199fricken6. Live. Leeds. Forever.

I remember at the time there was that big stand off over who was the greater band Blur or Oasis? The answer was Pulp.

555 comments... well now it’s 556.... I love this song so much

Preferred the His n Hers album to the more famous Different Class.

That chorus riff... *bites lip* holy fuck I love that riff.

They should be yuge in America

Mayo y vos.

Knew/screw ffs

Takes the edge off it

“Jesus it must be great, to be straight”

He means drugs fnar fnar

You say you've got to go home
'cause he's sitting on his own again this evening.
I know you're gonna let him bore your pants off again.
Oh God, it's half past eight,
You'll be late.
You say you've never been sure,
Though it makes good sense for you to be together.
Still you bought a toy that can reach the places he never goes.
Oh, now it's getting late.
He's so straight.

Do you remember the first time?
I can't remember a worse time.
But you know that we've changed so much since then,
Oh yeah,
We've grown.
Now I don't care what you're doing,
No I don't care if you screw him.
Just as long as you save a piece for me,
Oh yeah

You say you've got to go home.
Well at least there's someone there that you can talk to.
And you never have to face up to the night on your own.
Jesus, it must be great to be straight.

Do you remember the first time?
I can't remember a worse time.
But you know that we've changed so much since then,
Oh yeah,
We've grown.
Now I don't care what you're doing,
No I don't care if you screw him.
Just as long as you save a piece for me,
Oh yeah

i barely remember the last time

If James Acaster and Dylan Moran had a baby I bet it would look like Jarvis

I love the dreamy nature of this song.

This song randomly popped into my head a few days ago, haven't heard it for years, still good.

Come on come on come on basketball.

Carolyn gang active in Jersey city w/drum circle around 3 Aug 4th 2019.

The cinematography is fantastic

I miss these times, miss been young when everyone was happy around the pool table have afew pints and listening to songs like this. Growing old sucks.

Probably ny favorite pulp song.

11k people let their lives slide out view

People who dislikes were deaf!

all time favourite pulp song

Take me back...

chatting to them down the ICA the day before they premiered the film, chatting about sheffield and Forced Entertainment, great then, still brilliant now

The video is giving me a headache

This video makes me dizzy and nauseous.

1:05 can I see the camera rig in the car windscreen's reflection?

English and proud

Incredible track. Oh to be back in 1994/5/6

im gonna throw up

Best front man since jagged God it's great to be english

Epic sound...cinematic guitar

I feel dizzy!!! I'm just kidding, that's a very good video!!

I HATE censorship.

Kids: he said “...and I don’t care if you screw him...”

Grow up.

That hook. Had this the day it came out(‘lifted from a Soundwarehouse in OKC) in 1994. To this day this song stands out to me. It builds and builds all into this release of perfect guitar riff. Jarvis and company released an album so out of sync with the times that it remains timeless to this day.

this song still makes my heart swell no matter how many times i listen to it... jarvis' genius is still affecting teenagers decades after the song came out!

"it would be great to be straight"
Love this song, but I have to disagree, sir

Pulp are mid 90s Britpop encapsulated. Its sardonicness, its sexiness, its optimism, its despondencies, its examples of the middle class enjoying being rather working class.

I think it was more that a lot of the lower middle class were only just out of being working class...economically maybe but not psychologically. Alot of wounds carried across from the baby boomer generation that became middle class.

Frank Ocean brought me here

BLONDED

dior homme is made for your body

He's a one off star

He's the poor man's Morrissey - but neverthless still a great song.

I'm dizzy

One of the best uk bands ever.Songs are so on point didn’t really hit the highs they should have I think.When I think of Brit Pop I think of Pulp.Different Class is one of few albums I can actually sit listen to the whole thing not want to skip any tracks.

Do you remember the first time?

Got to pop to Sc**w fix in the morning

One of the greatest bands of all time. Not many bands combine goosebumps with just..... Hold up, I really don't know how to put my love for this band into words. Just thanks for the music!!!!!! 😍

Brilliant song prob there best in my opinion video a bit heavy if you have epilepsy😬fuckin censorship it's the 21st century I think we can cope with the word screw well screw you vevo 😣

You say you've got to go home

I have to say Jarvis is so normcore but it really turns me on

Pulp was Britpop!

Cool guy

I have said this before but when the stone Roses didnt play Glastonbury , pulp played, the best gig I have ever seen they were awesome

here I am dizzy and want to throw up now

The best band in the history of the world and the universe

I really love this song, it's a piece of a art

My favorite song by Pulp

V96 at Vicky park in my hometown👌 pulp were amazing

"Do you remember the first time? I can't remember a worse time"

Simple words, a million of bad memories.

The guritar riff absolutely makes this song, it's great. Wish I paid more attention to Pulp back in 94/95/96...

this song fuckin bangs

Sad sex: the two words that describe Pulp.

Brilliant...takes me back 20+years to a time when music was good and there was no mobiles or social media!!!!!!!!

I dont care if you knew him?? Eh??

The song is so beautiful and depressive at the same time, always reminds me of the time with the girl whose love I lost forever

My god, Jarvis always sounds so familiar when it comes to love, he’s just like your old best friend who tell all your feelings just by looking in your eyes

Amazing

It must be great to be strange.

straight!

does he remind u of youngest teacher at college singing to u

2218 anyone?

to think i took that music for granted when i was a teen. damn. it was great though. even though there was a lot of shit, it wasn't like today were there are literally no good songs on the radio. we had a few hits and we could just ignore the other crap. Teens these days are fucked

True, it's just awful the modern charts never heard such utter shite...we were indeed lucky in the 90s.

Now I see from where ASAP Rocky came with the idea for his new video (asap forever)

Jarvis had deffo been listening to Achtung Baby when he wrote this.

Un rulo....

did anyone notice the little kiss at 1:52

That guitar is just fucking fantastic

This gave me fucking motion sickness

Great song but the only thing that spoils it is the political corrected censorship

This is a homage to U2 in more ways than one.
