Super Furry Animals - Northern Lites Lyrics

I love this song and this band so much!

Who cares what the world thinks. I love em!

Simply outstanding! Love you SFA!!

so many melodies in one song! great songwritting

Gets me every time.

Haven't listened to the 'Furries for maybe ten years now- then randomly woke up with this stuck in my head. Today I shall listen to SFA. it has been decided.

Genius.
For realsies.

This song and MV are shitpost

20 years ago today aye

cant wait for this whol lp to be remastered and rereleased in a few months

2nd best thing to come out of Wales after Welsh Cakes.... God, I love Welsh Cakes

only a few months and its all back out remastered rerelease even better than before

What a great tune

will be rereleased soon best lp of 1990s

Delicioso👏💙

Sunny song up 👍Way too left of field for that Britpop movement. Right down to gruff's upside down guitar!

IRISH ROAD BOUWLIN!!!+

Irish road bowlin at the end. Haven't seen it in years

Love SFA. Fucking mad geniuses.

I love how weird the video is

SFA OK 👍

Every time the Winter Olympics is on I end up here...

Not even a 100,000 views for a certified work of genius. No-one has the balls to experiment like these lads used to

Amidst the crazy mish mash they'd only gone and created the most uplifting song ever! Surprised it's not recognised more

Cracking tunexx

SFA were consistently consistent

you could say they were also consistent at being consistently consistent.

@FBI agent #4278 SFA had a responsibility to the people to be great and they paid out good on that promise.

i fucking love you gogs

Greatest music video ever.

Probably the best SFA song. Either this or Slow Life

I didn't realise how good this was first time around. Class.

@ Phippsta, f!%k all, but like you said great song.

Great song, but what the hell does this have to do with Curling??!!

+Phippsta That is called road bowling. It is not rocks they are throwing, but an iron bowling ball, the referee is marking how far a throw has reached with a grass marker. This is a sport only played in Ireland, typically rural Ireland.

+Phippsta i think this video is an ironic view on globalization, and maybe if you pay attention the song can be too

Road bowling? its making curling stones.

does everything have to make sense? or have a deeper meaning?

Phillipsta asked in the third response above "... what the hell are they doing at the end of the video, when they're throwing rocks/ hay down the street!!??" That is what I responded to.

Jeremy u typical loyal royal loving slave get it right that was Scotland playing Canada at curling it had fuck all to do with england or the uk as u foolishly call it english don't play curling your far too busy invading other countries n setting up food banks round your shitty little union

michael barrymore and friends

Filmed on and around the ailsa craig off the coast at Girvan south Ayrshire. Cool band.

And the road bowls scenes were either shot in County Cork or County Armagh in Ireland.

Definitely some of it is from cork. My grandfather is in this video at 2:55. He was big into his bowling.

weirdest video ever from a band that specialised in them. SFA OK.

Amazing clip. Even better song.

Fantastic video in which a brilliant Welsh band provides the soundtrack for the Scottish and English Curling team to do their stuff! God bless our United Kingdom! #Unionism  

@***** No. They are a part of my identity and one I take pride in.

@***** I'm British. I'm also a proud Unionist, like many of my English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish brothers and sisters.

Jeremy parker I'm no unionist-I'm a Scot Nat and have been for at least a decade but music is a binding force, I'm against Westminster and not my Welsh, English and Irish brothers and sisters, music is music-lets revel in the community it creates :)

You sound like Jeremy Clarkson 😅 what do you make of the exclusively Irish sport toward the end?

Some of the road bowling is from cork. My grandfather is in this video at 2:55, he was an avid bowler.

All time greats, ridiculously underrated.

Curling

what is this sport called?

oh, SFA :')

curling stones from Trefor woop woop

Like the stone been taken from rock lol

curling stones...

Beautiful...

The perfect pop song

best song ever!
