  Slowdive's comeback ranks as one of the best in music history. They struggled to find an audience in the 90s, were basically driven out of the business by the music press, yet 30 years later they are now a top ten band across Europe!!

  I read somewhere that the Slowdive fanbase is getting younger and younger. That's a great testament to how their music connects with people, especially younger people who often feel things very deeply indeed. I know when I was in my teens and early 20s, my emotions were all over the place. Slowdive calmed my soul back then in the early 90s and they still do, now that I am 52 years old. I love the fact the band are just getting more and more popular. Bravo to them!

  The most insane guitar tones, mixing and atmosphere. Beautifully capturing the overwhelming immensity of youth through the clarity and hindsight that comes with age. Most amazing song and band!

  This video is amazing, I interpret it as like, how people come into our lives and we &quot;drive&quot; them through our experiences which is our lives, we get a closeup of the faces of the people in the back seat of the bikes, you can see their expressions and how it all might not have turned out good with the &quot;driver&quot;, one of them is even crying. You can tell the driver&apos;s face is of a tired person, representing the weight of carrying with all of that, we can see one scene where they&apos;re struggling with bottles, a skull, all of their experiences and emotions, going to one place to another with them. Sometimes, it&apos;s too much of a burden for us. We need someone to drive us to where we need to be, to help us ease the weight of all, and that&apos;s a big part of being human. That&apos;s why the smile at the end is so important. The driver is able to feel relaxed for once. Sometimes we need that in our lives, when we can&apos;t handle it all.<br><br>I love Slowdive so much, I have been listening to them since I was 14 and they&apos;ve help me relax and deal with emotions during my youth, I am so happy that they&apos;re still around and bringing us so much, I cant be more thrilled to feel again their sounds.

  It’s amazing that one of the best bands of the 90s has returned to make some of their best music ever.

  My little sister died a year ago this month, she was only 33. She looked so much like the blonde in this video, making it both lovely and hard to watch. She too used to carry people, she would help everyone, even strangers, until she was exhausted...I imagine in the end she got a lift from someone she trusted and she was able to just let go, hang on, relax, and enjoy the journey. Love you, Jenna ❤️ see you on the other side
