"Ten Storey Love Song" was the second single off Second Coming, the Stone Roses' 1994 album, and it's John Squire's song: he wrote the words and the music and plays the guitar, with Ian Brown singing, Mani on bass and Reni on drums and backing vocals. Simon Dawson and Paul Schroeder produced, John Leckie did additional recording, and Bill Price mixed.
It climbed to number 11 in the UK, and its B-sides, "Moses" and "Ride On", turned out to be the band's final new music until "All for One" surfaced in 2016. The Sophie Muller video became a comedy of absences: Reni never showed, so a stranger in a Reni mask keeps wandering through it, and when Brown skipped the first day, the clip has Squire and Mani watching the missing pair on a TV and checking their watches.
