From 1994 album "Promenade". In my humble opinion, one of Neil Hannon's best songs. I wonder if it's based on his own childhood memories?

the late Benjamin Lo-Fi once allowed his cheese on toast to burn, because he was so enamoured of this song, and couldn't return to the kitchen 'til it was finished...fortunately though, the toast was only burned round the edges, and the melted cheddar was fine...everyone present enjoyed their meal.

Maybe my most beloved song of all times... It Is my childhood in its lyrics. Although, as a friend says, we were near by the mountain and a river, not by the sea. But it doesn't make any difference in the end, because we will always remember our Summerhouse! And we'll go back to it....with our mind's eye. Thank you Neil.

I think Neil should turn his hand to orchestral writing - he has such skill with arrangement - do you catch those reeds?

@tmmvds The video is perfect. The sketches fit very nicely with the great song. There is always people who love it or hate it. I'm a lover! :P

My all time favourite elpee of ever and that. Sigh. I wish love was as grand as on this album. At least, after the initial highs.

Indeed!! Yes, I do think he's underrated. He's one of the greatest pop composers of all times...so talented, so young!
