HVN203 - Cherry Ghost 'Kissing Strangers'
Музыка
The swirling symphonic melodies of 'Kissing Strangers' herald the return of Cherry Ghost, three years after the release of their critically acclaimed, top 10 debut album, 'Thirst For Romance'. The first single to be taken from the new LP 'Beneath This Burning Shoreline' , released on July 7th.. The dusty crooned vocals of Simon Aldred are wrapped around psychedelic lullabies, Glen Campbell guitars and stately drumming. An ode to wayward souls "trawling the night skies," 'Kissing Strangers' is a 21st century song for swinging lovers: young hearts on the chase and well groomed weekend brutes. www.cherryghost.co.uk Directed by Douglas Hart.

Simon Aldred is still about!!
Still one of my all time favorite songs
Jeez I miss cherry ghost. They were backing the magic numbers at the Apollo in Manchester. We got delayed and watched them walk off stage! Never saw them live, still listen to all their wonderful music
Brilliant and underated band Simon's writing is second to none, one of my favourite bands ever, just quality every song , such a shame they never got the stardome they so richly deserved, still for me one of the UK's best ever bands.........And i'm an old prog and punk fan at 60, Big up to Simon you wrote some classic songs
Strikingly well conceived tune. I think this is one of the best pop songs ever done. Such yearning. Lovely and tireless melody
Phenomenal songwriting; I feel as if every word and every verse crafted so perfectly depict the wistfulness and longing from the song

+didoma73 Yes, It took me right away. I heard Tom Chaplin of Keane sing it on his channel. He does it justice.
Loved this the first time I heard it and it is still magnificent now
terrifically underrated band.
Das Beste, was ich seit langem gehört habe!!!
I just can´t get enough of this song! Absolutely addictive!!!
Great group and song 71and holding November 25th 2018
What a song..Briliant Cherry Ghost.
So stunning! Thank you!!!
seen these guys at Wigan last night supporting the courteeners, loved it wanted to see them for ages. They were, as always fantastic
I hadn't seen a good friend of mine in a while, and I heard this song, and it pretty much summed up how we both felt, thanks to the dude who owned the cafe for telling me the name of the song.
SO good. hell yes.
Can't beat that combo, great tune playing whilst kissing a stranger.
Amazing song and beautifully depicted in this video!
How briliant, how perfect
At last. They are back. Roll on the tour!!
Absolutely Stellar! Everything. Everyone did an amazing job. Magical song, amazing work by Doug and fantastic performance by the Actor. I would be extremely proud to have had any involvement in this project whatsoever. Thanks for letting me listen and look. Can't stop playing it :) In a selfish way I hope this doesn't chart or get too popular.. I secretly like the fact that not everyone knows about it - like the majority of the tripe out there. Proper art... really struck a note with me.
What a gem !
this band,the best thing since sliced bread .i wish for bands sake more people would listen, learn, but from selfish point glad you tour small venues, keep it up lads .great gig at glee club .....
@highwireman I'am with you, love these guys, superb back catalouge.
einfach nur stark!!!
Bloody amazing song, as most are. Saw them supporting Coral at Salford and Doves at Bradford but now have tix for Manc to see them top of the bill. F*cking superb, cannot wait....
nice one, looking forward to the new album!
i wouldn't be surprised if your track adds an abyss of depth to a motion picture. great work, awesome spirit, devine music. Sam Shnaps
glad cherry ghost are back, superb new single, but i expected that anyway, this band are superb!
brilliant stuff
Superb stuff!
I´m in love with this song , I mean , Go Britain : Rolling Stones , Pink Floyd , The Beatles , The Verve , Oasis , Blur and now Cherry Ghost ;)- Rule Britannia , Britannia Rules The Music World ;)
This is perfect for an ending the of a TV series.
Yep. I know that feeling.
FINALLY THEY`RE BACK!
Lewis, our dear friend, we all remember you with a kind word, how are you doing and creative success? Your Russian friends
fantastic
"time-worn verse and phrase" lyrical genius.
I would give anything to see Cherry Ghost get back together. I asked Simon a couple of years ago if he thought it could/would ever happen, he replied that it will NEVER happen which is really sad, they were fantastic.

Also its worth noting that There was a reunion of sorts in 2020/21 a record got released. 🤔
Overview Lyrics Other recordings Main results Stifling a roar Beauty the crashing bore Time worn verse and phrase Young hearts on the chase Haste to dull the wits Ransacking photo-fits Smiles that don't belong Like the one that's gone Been kissing strangers Trawling the night sky Drinking the bars dry All is closing in All is closing in Heard you found your feet And fell on a winning streak A well groomed weakened brute A seed that's taken root And I'm the backward town That needs razing to the ground But you were passing through Half way to somewhere new Been kissing strangers Trawling the night sky Drinking the bars dry All is closing in All is closing in Been kissing strangers Running a long line With luck of the wrong kind All is closing in All is closing in Twitch from a neon heart The fumbling in the dark Been kissing strangers Trawling the night sky Drinking the bars dry All is closing in All is closing in Been kissing strangers Running a long line With luck of the wrong kind All is closing in All is closing in Source: LyricFind
@kerensasdad I was trying to think who's voice he reminded me of and there is a touch of Paul Buchanan in there somewhere. Think it's the singing from the back of the throat that might do it. Couldn't put my finger on a particular BN song it reminds me of, but the atmosphere of the song and the vocals are certainly reminiscent. Great stuff.
Lewis Cooper, my uncle haha
I know which singer he reminds of: Lee Mavers of the La's!!!
saw them at V festival last weekend. you know what the most embarrassing thing was? the tent was practically half empty, people would rather see some of the pap on the main stage (i think it was peter andre or something dog-rough like that). they played amazing, although the small crowd made it feel a bit more intimate. still, a band like them deserves better. cracking song and "We Sleep On Stones" is one of the best tunes I've heard in a long, long time.
@Waxthumper amen brother
@timmyhassett awwwww........
@Nunov103 Yeah but America has Robert Johnson, Son House, Blind Willie Mctell, Lightening Hopkins, Woody Guthrie, Charlie Parker, Louis Armstrong, Elvis, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, Tom Waits and The Band, who taught most of those guys how to do it.
who's that actor? Great video clip!
Wow amazing song and video that actors pretty awesome who is he ?
@godthisispainful to me they sound like a whole bunch of some of my favorite artists. there can't be anything insulting about saying that
my song of the year. Check out People help the people acoustic. Astonishingly good.
@kerensasdad what blue nile songs does it remind you of?
Льюис, брат привет от vtk
Great British northern folk is where its at. Check out my Cherry Ghost inspired mate gazgradymusic
rarara
:(
They remind me of a slightly more optimistic "Arab Strap" for some reason...
Pull your pants up FDA SImon. You're 35 not 17. Brilliant new album though.
bullshit.
