FORMED: 1989, Wigan, Lancashire, England
DISBANDED: April 28, 1999
The Verve, from Wigan in Lancashire, were formed in 1990.
The band's line-up was originally Richard Ashcroft (vocals,
guitar), Nick McCabe (guitar), Simon Jones (bass) and Peter
Salisbury (drums). In 1995, after the band broke up for the
first time, Simon Tong (guitar, keyboards) joined Richard
Ashcroft's group. In fact, orignally, Tong taught Jones and
Ashcroft how to play guitar.
Richard, Simon and Pete knew each other from Upholland High
School and recruited Nick from Winstanley College. Whatever
went through their minds and into their mouths in the
months that followed can only be guessed at, but whatever
it was, it worked. Nurtured by great music and Social
Security and with eyes fixed firml More...

Review about The Verve
Validation? | Reviewer: John
------ About the song Lucky Man performed by The Verve
I think it's about a guy finding himself through a relationship. The writer talks about knowing who and where he is, and feeling no disgrace for being "naked." I think the guy feels like he's an imperfect man, but doesn't feel bad about them when he's with his object of affection because her love validates him.
Good Tune | Reviewer: fredsanford
------ About the song Lucky Man performed by The Verve
But the lyrics are crap. Probably just a bunch of words that went along with the melody. Song writers now-days are not in tune, nor do they have much depth when it comes to meaningful lyrics. A decent melody, a few catchy phrases and your pretty much able to entertain todays jello-brained youth. This song has no meaning at all, those that are reading into it, trying to make this puddle into some sort of ocean are simpletons. But still, this fluff song isnt that bad, it is what it is.
This is the one song that touches my soul. | Reviewer: Bethany
------ About the song Bitter Sweet Symphony performed by The Verve
This song grabs you from it's haunting opening, and holds you throughout. I have listened to it so many times and it never gets old. I have manic depression and if ever there were a song to express how frustatingly complex my world is, it's this one. I love so many types of music, but this song belongs in a class by itself. This song is a rarity, that has never received the acclaim it deserves.
Beautiful. | Reviewer: Savannah
------ About the song Bitter Sweet Symphony performed by The Verve
This song is something different. It's beautiful. You know how at times you can listen to songs and love them but once you change your mood you start to listen to them but they just don't fit and you have to turn them off?? Well this is the only song i've ever heard that never makes me feel that way.
Meaning | Reviewer: Long
------ About the song Bitter Sweet Symphony performed by The Verve
When I think of this song, I think of teenagers waking up in the morning and getting dressed as usual. While getting ready, they are mouthing the words to the song. They then leave their house with their bags as if they were walking to school. As they are walking, they appear together on the same road. As the song nears the end, the road splits up and all the teenagers hug and say goodbye to each other as they each go on different paths.
The paths to me, is their futures as all people have different goals and destinations, but we are all walking on this road called 'life'.
The meaning is the song itself but I'll say.... Graciela | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Lucky Man performed by The Verve
I agree with what Ryan, who wrote here says, with something to add
"To me this song is about coming to realization with yourself, and that be it with how many twists and turns in life may come your way, it is your choice how you deal with it. And the bottom line, if your a lucky man in your own mind, and your a loving person, then nothing else that surrounds u really matters. Its about being strong." I would say It's about being oneself if ones searches for happyness and love like he says he does and what makes him lucky ( happy and have love).

I was looking for new songs ... and i love the bittersweet symphony version the verve did and so i fell upon this song ...
i think this song is about loving oneself more than anything else ... that love comes and goes ... happiness is sublime .... doesnt always stay ... we gotta keep the faith ... keep the love goin ... that u will be lucky as long as u love yourself ... as long as the fire burns in your heart ... as long as you feel the strength in the arms ... this life is yours to live :) ....
Peace ... love.... and happiness .... to all ... namaste :)
Happiness in self | Reviewer: Chris
------ About the song Lucky Man performed by The Verve
"Happiness more or less it's just a change in me, something in my liberty". To me this song is about one's ability to decide to be happy or varying degrees of happy and as long as happiness is what we feel most, we are all luckier as a result. The great thing about songs like this one is they can affect us all in our own way. I heard this song on the way to the hospital before my daughter was born and that moment in time is forever etched in my memory as one of the happiest moments of my life.
Peace and happiness to all of you...

quite simply the greatest single pop / rock / blues song ever written. its almost impossible to imagine a better example of a songwriters ability to express human emotion in a more meaningful way.
Asking for a comeback | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Sonnet performed by The Verve
This song is about resembling old memories of an ex partner, and find that there are still to much feelings.
Then offering a come back to that relationship and telling that is missing that person a lot and is having a really hard time. Finally hoping to have that loved one by its side soon.
its forever love | Reviewer: tony
------ About the song Lucky Man performed by The Verve
this song is so important to me , its telling me that i have love for my kids for ever , and i am a lucky man to have them ,
i live my own live but i am so rich to have them ------- so i am a lucky man
all the love I have is in my mind | Reviewer: Ryan

It is only in our mind | Reviewer: Yoarky
------ About the song Lucky Man performed by The Verve
I thought it had an ironic sense... Happiness "coming and going" maybe doesn´t really exist, because love will die someday:" Got a love that´ll never die" But if you love yourself, it might stay in your mind, and then you are lucky ???
In any case, it is my favorite song. I love it!
Yes, a great song | Reviewer: Kay
------ About the song Bitter Sweet Symphony performed by The Verve
I liked it back in the 1960's when it was performed by the Andrew Loog Oldham Orchestra, only at that time it was called "The Last Time" and it was written by the Rolling Stones. Exactly the same song, but without Ashcroft's lyrics.
Meaning | Reviewer: Jeff
------ About the song See You In The Next One (Have A Good Time) performed by The Verve
I read in a magazine that the meaning of this song is very deep. it is about Richard Ashcroft's journey to Asia and seeing Buddha. the magazine said he was so inspired and wrote a song about it. I think that is wonderful and so inspiring. I like it a lot. This song is one of my favorite because of that. =)

Isn't it about... | Reviewer: Daniele
------ About the song Lucky Man performed by The Verve
Isn't this song about when you are diseased of depression? When all the love you have is in your mind, everything is happening but you ain't feeling nothing. Happiness
More or less,
It's just a change in me,
Something in my liberty!
My thoughts | Reviewer: Morty
------ About the song Lucky Man performed by The Verve
This is one of my favourite songs of all time, The Verve were truly a walking masterclass. To be honest, I think that the song isn't about loving yourself, or other people (although many people tend to think along those lines). To me, it's just saying that nothing in life really matters if you look at it. Like it says "Happiness, coming and going" - which basically says that moods and emotions come and go, and "It's just a change in me" - which says that the events going on around are "just" are change to his life, but don't matter too much.
That's how I perceive it anyway. Once again, top song.
almost perfect | Reviewer: nix

------ About the song Lucky Man performed by The Verve
to me this song is about a man who has realised that no matter what happens to you outside, and everything that happens around you can not truely bare on your happiness. he has come to realise that happyness comes from good thoughts and positive thoughts. which in turn, will change you into a lucky person.
this is what it says to me anyway
