"High" is a song by Feeder, released as the band's fourth and final single from the album Polythene. This track wasn't included on the album until its re-issue in October of the same year, and is seen as a fan anthem. It was the first Feeder single to be playlisted on BBC Radio 1, reaching #24 in the UK making it their first top 40 hit. It also got extensive radio play, and made the B-list. Frontman Grant Nicholas was once quoted saying that the song is about friendship.

  • "High" is a song by Feeder, released as the band's fourth and final single from the album Polythene. This track wasn't included on the album until its re-issue in October of the same year, and is seen as a fan anthem. It was the first Feeder single to be playlisted on BBC Radio 1, reaching #24 in the UK making it their first top 40 hit. It also got extensive radio play, and made the B-list. Frontman Grant Nicholas was once quoted saying that the song is about friendship. It also is regarded as the song that kept the band in the USA for 11 months during 1998, touring with Everclear. The track was featured in the film "Can't Hardly Wait" in 1998, and reached #24 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock and #36 on the US Modern Rock chart. Because of Billboard chart rules at the time, the song was ineligible to chart on its Hot 100 chart for lack of a commercial single release in the States. The soundtrack album of "Can't Hardly Wait" was, however, certified gold by the RIAA for 500,000 units shipped, and "High" was one of the most requested tracks on US college radio during the summer of 1998. Two days after drummer Jon Lee committed suicide at his home in Miami, on the 7 January 2002 BBC Radio 1 DJ Steve Lamacq broadcasted a tribute show to him, as part of his then show titled The Evening Session. Many fans earlier on in the day contacted Steve to play "High" as a tribute to Jon at the end of his show, which he did. When the band returned to the live stage in August of that year, all live performances of "High" seen Grant Nicholas play an acoustic guitar instead of an electric guitar as with all performances prior to this. Touring guitarist Dean Tidey played all the electric parts of the song. This was the only year the song was performed with this arrangement.
