The Hollies are an English pop group formed in Manchester in the early 1960s. Most of the band members are from throughout East Lancashire. Known for their distinctive vocal harmony style, they became one of the leading British groups of the 1960s and early-1970s. They enjoyed considerable popularity in many countries, although they did not achieve major US chart success until 1966. Along with the Rolling Stones, they are one of the few British pop groups of the early 1960s that have never officially broken up and that continue to record and perform. The Hollies were inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2010.

“Bus Stop” was authored by 19 year old Graham Gouldman (who would later form the band 10cc). Graham had the idea for the bus stop setting, and his father, a skilled lyricist nicknamed “Hyme the Rhyme”, came up with the first line : “Bus stop, wet day, she’s there, I say, ‘please share my umbrella.’”

When Gouldman played it for The Hollies, they knew at once that they were offered a KNOCKOUT❕

According to Gouldman, this piece’s middle eight was one of very few instances when he had a sudden inspiration rather than having to resort to hard toil. He explained : “You have to be working to make something happen. Occasionally you can wait for some magic, like McCartney waking up with ‘Yesterday’ already written in his mind […] - it’s like a gift from your own subconscious. Or sometimes, it’s like a tap’s turned on. When I’d written most of ‘Bus Stop’, I was actually on a bus thinking about how the middle eight should go. And this whole, ‘Every morning I would see her waiting at the stop / Sometimes she’d shop…’ that all came to me in one gush […].”

There is a short instrumental passage midway through the song, but the vocals, by Allan Clarke, truly carry the day❕The only real verse section is in the middle - the rest is chorus and bridge, which is flipped at the end - “Every morning I would see her waiting at the stop” comes before “bus stop, wet day”, providing a perfect bookend.

With so little verse, there are very few details - we don’t know what the bus or passengers look like - but that works because the listener can fill in the gaps. That is a technique Gouldman picked up from THE BEATLES❕ “Sometimes it’s what’s left out that makes it work”, he said.

PAY CLOSE ATTENTION and you will perceive HOW ALIKE The Hollies’ “Bus Stop” (1966) & The Beatles’ “Things We Said Today” (1964) SOUND‼️ ???
