The Field Mice - Canada

The Field Mice were the most popular band on the seminal, cult indie label Sarah Records. Initially a duo from South London suburb of Mitcham comprising Bob Wratten and Michael Hiscock, their first EP, "Emma's House," was released in late 1988.

Please leave a comment if you love it as much as me :) Lyrics to Quicksilver : The last time that I saw you I was just and you were You were nearly 13 It was a summers day It was shortly after Our last term together Dearly I would love Dearly I would love To see you again Do you still in that grove That I look down almost Every time I pass it I dreamt of you last night I have done many times Since I last set eyes on you Dearly I would love Dearly I would love To see you again Dearly I would love Dearly I would love To see you again
