Part of a clear shift in direction, The Charlatans released “Impossible” as the third single from Us and Us Only (October 1999). Released on 15 May 2000, it reflected their move toward a more roots driven, soulful sound at the turn of the decade.

Another Place To Fall turns 20 🖤🎂 The final single from Eye To The Telescope.
I love performing this one live... it always feels a bit cathartic 😈!!
I've collected a few memories from the time, let me know yours in the comments.
1. This is one of my favourite ever pictures of me which we used for the 7" vinyl. I was so new to having my picture taken, and this captured the strangeness of leaving my small town in Scotland and making it in the big City.
2. A clip from the music video by the legendary Director Tim Pope. My friend & singer Donna Maciocia is in this - she sang backing vocals on Acoustic Extravaganza!
3. It was such a thrill to finally get to play T In The Park ⚡️ Not just because the crowd was epic, but I got my own 21st Century Kilt and got all the boys in one too!
