I love this song. This band doesn't get the appreciation they deserve (at least outside of the UK). Both of their albums are fantastic and it's awesome that they're recording with the drummer from the Arcade Fire (who doesn't get enough credit for their incredible sound eventhough he's probably the one most behind it) I wish I lived in England so I could see BSP more. I've only seen them once and they were spectacular. Their live, raw and emotive sound definitley translates extremely well onto their albums, which is a real rarity (I would equate their success in this to the Arcade Fire[probably my favorite band so that's a high compliment from me]). The video for this song used Edward Muybridge's (19th century photographer) images and that's one of the reasons why I love it. Muybridge took animals, people, anything really and set up a system where many cameras caught motion of these creatures. Once everything was processed, movement and action could be studied (the original reason why he did this was to prove to someone that all of a horse's feet are off the ground when it's mid-stride). www.sanctuarynewmedia.com/roughtrade/BSP_oily_hi.wmvI CANNOT WAIT for new music from them.

Yeah, brilliant song. Got to #18 in the UK back in March 2005.
