I agree. It ages well.

Amen to that. I actually buried Travis in my collection but I like this song a lot. Great, chill sound. I'll have to dig them out again and get this song on the 'ole iPod.

Is it me or is there a hint of Aphex Twin in this?

travis are a great band, great melodies&vocals, some that will become classics like "why does it always rain on me"....but I don't think that the songs of 12 memories will have the same destiny.....dommage

Like the instrumental arrangement a lot, but the vocal is pretty blecchhy.

I like the strong Piano element - well used for both percussion and melody. BOOSTED the speakers for that one. Sorry to the neighbors.....
Edit: I see I posted to this before because I loved this over a year ago. That is *a* test of time, but is it *the* test of time?

Another guy whose only groove is ennui. Maybe he could join Coldplay, and the whole lot could disappear. I wish.

It seems like I'm in the minority, but I find this Travis album more interesting than the others (although I've liked them all). This song is my favorite.

First time hearing this: A very very wicked instrumental intro which immediately snagged me. I just waited, hoping that if there was a vocal, that it would match. And bam, I could tell after the first phrase that it was right on. What a great fusion of everything!

My volume knob wont go any higher!
I FEEL EXACTLY THE SAME!!

Should always be preceded with Kate Bush's Running Up That Hill, even though musically they probably don't meld that well. ;)
