Dave C 42 Posted November 3, 2014 (edited) Wow. Stunned, but delighted to see this. The video, just like the song, is pure Elbow, understated but beautiful & poignant. Its heart-warming to see such recognition of the Aces & the importance of their history in Manchester. With all the apparent negativity & doom surrounding UK speedway at present, this is a welcome reminder of what the sport and each individual club, means to a dwindling band of passionate folk, throughout the country. Its all a bit sentimental, but hey, what's wrong with that? Lets hope that this video & the subsequent mainstream exposure, is another timely boost for the Aces & their plans for the new stadium. http://elbow.co.uk/watch-charge-video-online-now/ Edited November 3, 2014 by Dave C 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The White Knight 9,039 Posted November 4, 2014 A superb compilation. Strangely enough, for me, I enjoyed the Music too. A terrific advert for Speedway. Thank you for Posting this Rob B. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

moxey63 1,785 Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) Is that an official video then? I am well chuffed... well and truly gobsmacked. Elbow are not a bad group... but this record, and I've only heard it for the first time... ably backed by a superb video, I have to say... moxey63 likes it! Speedway don't half look good... I knew there was a reason for it. Just off to download the Elbow ditty! Edited November 4, 2014 by moxey63 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

raymondbudd 57 Posted November 7, 2014 I actuall enjoyed the downbeat nature of it, the storytelling of days gone past to a soundtrack with melonchony undertones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fatface 2,554 Posted November 11, 2014 Very cool indeed.It's difficult to define, but there is a certain working man's grittiness in speedway. It works so well on film. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
