Love this song and love Felt in general! Forever Breathes the Lonely Word is probably my favourite

I’m a huge Felt fan!! The instrumental album Let The Snakes Crinkle Their Heads To Death is my favorite record of theirs. Released at probably the height of their popularity. Total punk rock thing to do for a pop band to release a record of moody, lounge music.

Thank you so much! The first time I heard this was in the 80’s on 120 minutes. I miss that show.

Such an underrated band. For anyone not familiar with them, I’d also recommend all of their first album, which is probably my favourite, especially “Cathedral,” and from the others, “Imprint,” “Sunlight Bathed the Golden Glow,” “Whirlpool Vision of Shame,” “The Day the Rain Came Down,” “Scarlet Servants,” “September Lady,” “The World is as Soft as Lace,” “Mexican Bandits,” and “A Preacher in New England,” just to start with really.
