I think you're right and wrong Pontus - The Verve were very, very good and did get a lot of respect even in the early days. However I find it irksome that Dickie Ashcroft is now constantly lapping up all the credit when the real genius in The Verve was Nick McCabe.

History is the best Verve track IMO. What do others think?

bittersweet symphony surely


As the main hook of that song was by the Andrew Loog Oldham Orchestra playing The Stones The Last Time does it still count?

Yes, otherwise todays rap "artists" would get no recognition. How could m & m, 50 C, Kanye etc all survive without using other peoples songs?
 
If I had to choose a single Verve song it would probably be Drive You Home.
