Feeder

A b-side to the "Tangerine" single, this song was deservedly put on their b-sides compilation "Picture of perfect youth" and it's to me the 2nd best song on the compilation, with the best being Undvided, both on CD 2 at the end of the playlist (TV me was #16 and Undivided #18 with Wishing for the sun in between)

Again one of their greatest songs, it's known to have been in the band repertory from the very beginning, so it's likely to have been written around 1993-4 and published in 1997. Amazing distorted vocals from Grant here. Curiously this is Grant's least fave Feeder song, he also claimed that he was ashamed of it, no one knows why cause it's so damn good!!

This song is great...he hates it WHY?! This is better than a good 75% of what was out on the radio then, and 100% now haha! PS: Respect to Feederinourhearts for their amazing, enviable collection of rare Feeder stuff to enjoy! :) Your channel is boss! <3

This song is great, I find it strange that Grant never took to it. Unfortunately I never owned a copy at the time as I bought the first release of the single (the one with Rhubarb). I'm always proud to say that was the first single I ever bought! :D Wishing for the Sun is lovely too - although 'lying on a bed, flying in my head' has to be a lyrical low for Grant if I'm honest :P Polythene and Swim era Feeder - the greatest 3 years of my life :D
