Week One Hundred and Forty-Three: Inspiral Carpets - "This Is How It Feels" - Life

If you were as lucky enough as I was to come of age in the '90s, then you most certainly heard the term, "Madchester", a time or two. The Inspiral Carpets, along with many other bands I have covered on this blog, like The Stone Roses, James, The Charlatans, The Mock Turtles, The Farm, EMF, and Blur, were all part of the Madchester movement.

The predecessors to and influences on this movement were none other than The Smiths and New Order, so it should come as absolutely no surprise that I was an avid fan of most of the Madchester bands.

Today, in addition to the video for "This Is How It Feels", I am also including a few of my other favorites called "Two Worlds Collide" and "Saturn 5"...

Husband don't know what he's done
Kids don't know what's wrong with mum
She can't say, they can't see
Putting it down to another bad day

Daddy don't know what he's done
Kids don't know what's wrong with mum

So this is how it feels to be lonely
This is how it feels to be small
This is how it feels when your word
Means nothing at all

Black car drives through the town
Some guy from the top estate
Left a note for a local girl
And yet he had it all on a plate

So this is how it feels to be lonely
This is how it feels to be small
This is how it feels when your word
Means nothing at all

Husband don't know what he's done
Kids don't know what's wrong with mum
She can't say, they can't see
Putting it down to another bad day

So this is how it feels to be lonely
This is how it feels to be small
This is how it feels when your word
Means nothing at all

So this is how it feels to be lonely
This is how it feels to be small
This is how it feels when your word
Means nothing at all

Nothing at all
Nothing at all
