LYRICS:
This is for those
In the hospital tonight
Seeing the road and the
Flowers that you like

I've been thinking of misfortune and
I can't begin to live
Thinking of the times I've had
I can't seem to forgive

I can grow
I can grow
I can grow
Or suffer my

I can grow
I can grow
I can grow
Or suffer my

Don't look back
Let them go
Have some fun In the very, very cold
I wanted to meet you (with the flowers you like)

I can say
Don't compare
Don't complain
Don't show what they really want
I wanted to meet you (with the flowers you like)

Things will get better
Things will get better
Before time
Before time

Things will get better
Things will get better
Before time
But only if you really, really want them to

This is for those
In the hospital tonight
Seeing the road and the
Flowers that you like

Foliage - Flowers That You Like

For our latest roundup of 2025 we look at the year in music, with Ali joined once again by musician and righteous supporter of Scottish music, Gefahrgeist's Fiona Liddell. As is now customary, they each pick 10 tracks to discuss which have left their mark over the last 12 months.

As they make clear, they could easily have picked many, many, more examples from what was another incredible year for Scottish music, (and on another day possibly would), but we hope you enjoy their musical musings, meanderings, and memories.

There's a Spotify playlist where you can listen to all the songs Fiona and Ali talk about, and if you like what you hear then please explore further, follow, and support the bands, musicians, artists, and labels involved. 

The reason for our Best Of 2025 podcasts is the hope you'll hear about something you'd like to investigate yourself, and this music chat offers plenty of choice.
