When I Still Have Thee Lyrics


From the western isles to the tasman sea
There's a world of men and machinery
But the birds still sing and the sun shines free
No, I don't need much when I still have thee
Well, the rolling stones wrote a song for me
It's a minor song in a major key
But the stars still shine, the museums free
No, I don't need much when I still have thee
It's a modern hymn for the you and me
For the go between and the red army
Long as I still breathe and the air's still free
No, I don't need much when I still have thee
But the birds still sing and the sun shines free
No, I don't need much when I still have thee
For the rolling stones and the red army
No, I don't need much when I still have thee

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Teenage Fanclub are an indie rock band from Bellshill, Scotland near Glasgow, formed in 1989, and were formerly known as The Boy Hairdressers. They have two generally known humorous nicknames "The Fannies" and "The Bellshill Beach Boys"

Teenage Fanclub are revered for their devotion to chiming, Byrds-esque guitars and harmony vocals. Songwriting duties are shared between the three permanent members of the band, Norman Blake, Raymond McGinley, and Gerard Love.

In 2006, the band held two special concerts in London and Glasgow, playing their 1991 masterpiece Bandwagonesque in its entirety.

There have been a succession of drummers, including:

- Francis MacDonald (a prime-mover in the C86 scene, later of the BMX Bandits), the drummer in the original lineup, and in a later period
- Brendan O’Hare (later of Telstar Ponies, Thrapple , Mogwai and Macrocosmica)

and

- Paul Quinn (later of The Primary 5), who was later replaced by the returning Francis MacDonald.

Keyboardist Finlay MacDonald (no relation to Francis MacDonald) has also been a member.
