Flowers in the Window TRAVIS (with lyrics)
"Flowers in the Window" is a song from Scottish rock band Travis' third studio album, The Invisible Band (2001). Frontman Fran Healy wrote the song during recording sessions for the band's previous album, The Man Who (1999), coming up with the title by looking at British audio engineer Mike Hedges' flower garden. Released as the album's third and final single on 25 March 2002, the song debuted and peaked at #18 on the UK Singles Chart, reached #35 in Ireland, and also charted in Australia, Germany, and Switzerland. According to Fran Healy, he wrote "Flowers in the Window" during June 1998 in France, at Mike Hedges' recording studio while Travis were recording their previous album, The Man Who. When Hedges told Healy that every artist who had recorded at his studio wrote a song there, Healy refused to do so because he "didn't feel like it". Healy had previous written songs alone in his room, but one day, he sat at Hedges' piano and composed the opening riff. He then transferred this riff to his guitar and came up with most of the song's melody and its hook, which he wanted to be six syllables. Upon looking outside at Hedges' garden, he came up with the hook and title: "Flowers in the Window".

Good old Kenny Lynch! He was an English singer, songwriter, entertainer, and actor, appearing in many variety shows in the 1960s.

In the mid 1970s, David Soul enjoyed some huge charts successes. It all suddenly came to an end, brought on, I suspect by problems with his record label. In fact, this one was a hit only here in England. What was going on?

1975 im Jugendheim auf den Plattenteller gelegt, heute noch immer ein Genuß der die Ohren streichelt !! R.I.P.
Passed away today. 80 years old. Dementia. Thank you sandy for your voice. 😢
Es war unser Hochzeitssong von meinem Mann an mich, jetzt liegt er im Sterben und ich habe die Hoffnung ihn damit zurück zu holen.
Thank you for a lovely comment, Elisabeth.
Elvis. The. King. Forever!❤
I prefer Sonny James to Tab Hunter
Such a great song, such a great singer, RIP
My favorite Everly Brothers tune.
Austin Powers ripped off this look
Could be!!! It was certainly before his time.
Thank you, Jerry Fuller. You will be missed.
❤Oldie but goodie!❤
Long time since iv`e heard this . Cheers Victor
Still sounds fresh!
Nice one Victor , They never made a bad record . Have a good weekend ,
Despite their reliance on their links with Paul McCartney, they were a very talented duo. Peter, in particular, went on to have a long career as a well-respected music producer.
Great great song 👍
I agree, Bill. Well worth posting!
one of their many goodies Victor 😊😊👍👍*******
Loved them then. Love 'em still. Thanks for the stars, guys!
First time I heard this song ....... nice
He had a string of these happy-sounding hits back in the early Sixties!
DULCE Y HERMOSA VOZ DE CONNIE 😗
In memory of my late wife.
SUPER. PESMA A TEK KOJE PEVA???👑👑👑👑🧎🌋🌋🌋🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️
I jast cry when I hear this song, What s wrong with me

Always enjoyed this great song ...Reminds me of a girl named Rita ..!!
Love this song and lyrics from the king him self. A Devoted Fan. ❤😊

I need a time machine to go back to 1967. Carefree and listening to the best music ever! Learning about the world!✌️
magic song
Lots of memories thanks for such a great song
Thanks to John Carter and his lovely wife Gill for the melody and lyrics!
Jai du ciel bleu dans ma tête.❤
Naturellement!
Two words wrong in the subtitles.
My teenage self loved this song❤️❤️❤️
❤...
Play this back-to-back with ''Jessamine'' by 'The Casuals' and go on a Sixties Melody-Fest Rocket Ship....❤️
Am sure the words of this song can relate to us all in our youth. Certainly can to me. Keep reminding me of my youth through this greet song.
I could listen to Mary Hopkin's voice all day. I love this song, and it wasn't even that big a hit in the U.S.
Totally agree with your comments Victor Chapman /Chinn Were proven hit makers ,this song proves it . Strange how successful acts leave their proven production team.,only to split with no more success, Cheers
Yes, it happened to The Flowerpot Men after the record label "sacked" the Carter-Lewis team and brought in Greenaway and Cook. Nothing they did ever matched the brilliance of "Let's Go to San Francisco".
R.I.P. Errol Brown 🙏💖
Any song from wonderful neil diamond is just wonderful
Facts of life, not way of life. Sullivan made them say that. Couldn’t get Jim to do that.
one of those songs i fast forwarded through on the cassette
You missed out on a real gem!
Good cover band they never wrote any of their songs
No, but they could adapt a song to their own unique style.
First heard this when in the barracks @ Guards depot Pirbright 1964 on cleaning parade.
Didnt come out til 67 so doubt you heard it in '64
one of my favorite songs when i was a teenager. Still a favorite today
For me too, Jean!
Absolute magic!
Thanks for what it's worth sxx bravo juliett
I guess it's worth something to someone who knows what you are referring to! (You lost me!)
Beautiful!
