JamesP_81 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 (edited) Just got my copy of Pedestrian Verse on vinyl through the door today. Had spent the last year trawling through record stores and charity shops in the hope that a copy had been unwittingly discarded and was even considering stumping up the £200+ asking price on the resale market. Then the reissue was announced and got it pre-ordered for £22. Result. Edited April 25, 2022 by JamesP_81 Typo 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meathead Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 (edited) It's been out for a few months now but Frank Turner's song 'A Wave Across A Bay' is about Scott: My memories of those awful few days in May 2018 still feel so vivid - hard to believe four years have passed. Hope you're all doing alright. Edited May 10, 2022 by Meathead 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevoraith Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Seems appropriate to listen to my 'everything Scott Hutchison ever released' playlist on Spotify this week. Also vividly remember confirmation that they'd found him four years ago today. Never ever mourned a 'celebrity' before or since, still feel a bit like I've lost a mate. I'm off to turn the volume up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Brightside Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Still hurts to this day. I think Scott and Phil O'Donnell are the only people that I don't know that I've been upset about dying. My Backwards Walk is my favourite song by Frightened Rabbit, what about you guys? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about outright favourite but this is definitely up there. A shame it never got a 'proper' release. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly don't know. I don't think I've ever really had outright favourite songs from bands. I'm pretty sure I have a thread in the Top Fives forum on this subject and it's five that are sort of above everything else, but for bands that I really like and bands that are really good there might be a certain time where I feel like listening to a song or album in particular but for the most part I'd take just about anything. When they did the Barras in 2016 and played Things I lost my shit because I love that song and I never thought I'd see it live, so I'll say that for now for something different. (I've been doing some reading and discovered it was Scott's favourite) Here's a video from 2017: Edited May 11, 2022 by Miguel Sanchez 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Living in Colour will always be my favourite. If Scott wrote a more joyous-sounding song then I'm yet to hear it. The 'by day I hope to rapidly die' line in the bridge makes me wince sometimes now, but the overall message is so uplifting that I never dwell on it.

Swordfishtrombone Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 (edited) Thank you for this thread. I stopped paying attention to new music circa 2003, I was vaguely aware there was a band called Frightened Rabbit who were highly rated but had never really listened to them. I'm really glad I have now after listening to songs on here and then spending hours on youtube listening to the back catalogue. Scott Hutchison was an incredibly talented artist and lyricist and a sad loss to the human race from what I can gather . I used to think Frank Turner was a bit of a twat too but that is a beautiful tribute.

MY friend got me listening to him before I'd listened to Freighted Rabbit, was at a concert when Frank Turner covered Heads Roll Off and mentioned he'd always cover a Freighted Rabbit song in Scotland that was the first I knew they were friends. This for me is ridiculously good 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
