My coworker and friend Michael and I would listen to this over and over again. He passed away while I was out of the country, I was so shocked... Literally, one day I got off the train in NYC and looked up at the street sign and saw that it was the street he had lived on, I recognized the building at the corner from his description as we had talked about it at length. I just stood there and silently sang this song to myself and to him. Michaell, you are still missed, after all these years. Thanks for all the smiles.
@@Mark.Cleworth oh no, I am so sorry about your friend, that's so sad, my heart goes out to you Mark!! And thanks so much for your kind words, my friend.
@@jaimeozxo5884 I hear you, but she had in the past difficulties with the "men" in the music business being condescending. She also has said she never like performing live. Let the music speak for itself.
wtf are you talking about. this thinly veiled excuse to shit on modern music is hysterical. One, they have fucking flashy dancers in the video. It's also a fucking night club lol. Two, you're very, very wrong. Image, fashion and music go a long way. I bet you also like Roxy Music, T. Rex, Brian Eno and David Bowie, too, right?
@@adnanomeragic9597 "They" don't have flashy dancers. That's not part of the band. They are the house dancers on the White Room set. They are in all performances on that show. What are you on about.
It's me. It's me driving down to that London after a bad break-up. Just passed Harlow. With this on a loop. Low-sodium orange lamplights twinkling. Goddamn. Everything. But The Girl.
EBTG is such a grossly underrated band for the collective experience of so many different genre and styles of their original songs which come out acoustic first, revised and tech synth'ed for EDM or deep house & acid jazz. These days you don't need talent to be a top music artist. I miss the time of music where you had to be good and make relevant memorable songs for a full album of quality work, regardless of genre. The 90s were quite a time indeed as far as the music goes.
Her voice is one of the most gorgeous female voice ever. And it is at it's peak around these times. I love also the double bass, it combines miraculously with the electronica. This must be Danny Thompson, there is only one man on earth who plays like this. This is so utterly beautiful and tasteful done
I don't want excuses I don't want your smiles I don't want to feel like we're apart a thousand miles I don't want your attitude I don't want your things I don't want a phone that never rings I want your love, and I want it now I want your love, and I want it now I don't want your history I don't want that stuff I want you to shut your mouth That would be enough I don't care if you've been here before You don't understand Tonight, I feel above the law, I'm coming in to land I want your love, and I want it now I want your love, and I want it now My heart is that much harder now That's what I thought before today My heart is that much harder now And I thought that it would stay that way, before today Before today I don't want a phone that never rings I want your love, and I want it now I want your love, and I want it now I want your love I want your love I want your love I want your love I want your love I want your love I want your love
These women standing in the front row not only NOT GROOVING to this music, but standing there with their arms folded. It's like you're watching musical brilliance literally 4-6 feet from you (being played live, no less) and all you can do is stand there? What TF is wrong with this audience?
Sublime: The unforced melancholic modest delivery beautifully articulates and conjures imagery over waves of pulsating moody beat music: Intelligent disturbing unassuming profound. At the furthest limits of popular song or modern reaches of poetry: Sublime.
There's something so cool and groovy about the synths and the acoustic upright bass playing with each other. I wish the studio recording had that, but at least we have these live versions.
Love how this lady sings she really seems to blend In sweet with all the Instruments. She still sings In tune live as well and that's hard to find these days. XXX
One of my greatest regrets is that EBTG had to cancel their show in Ft Lauderdale / Pompano back in 96 or 97. I’ve been a fan since the very first time I heard “Driving” and later I fell deeply in love with “Amplified Heart” which quickly & literally became the soundtrack to my life in 94/95. I played & still play that album so many times that it’s part of my DNA and my life forever! Reading Tracey’s autobiography has catapulted me back to that era and my love affair with EBGT. Since 94 I’ve purchased all their back catalogue and kept up with all their new releases! I know the show was suddenly canceled due to Ben’s health and I am just grateful that he is doing well and still making beautiful music. Love you forever! ❤️❤️ MaryLiz from Ft Lauderdale ❤️❤️
"Missing" still sounds nowadays in a lot of places here in Valencia (Spain), I'm 40 and I have one brother and one sister older than me who listened to it so much in the 90's. Unforgettable song.
One of the coolest artist on earth, with an angelic classy voice! That's Tracy thorn. My favorite from her is,, I didn't know I was looking for love...
I Never got the chance to see them sing in public, whoever I had the pleasure to Meet Tracey and Ben at one of the WMC !! This video of them live is just amazing !! Sound exactly like the record. I could swear is a play back but her voice is such a perfection that is not playback ! Love everything they did ! I have all the records. And wondering if ever still be a British artist with such a humbleness and talent ! 🥰

Absolutely agree with you.
I came here from listening to her autobiography Bedsit Disco Queen. It’s well worth the money!
yes sir d man-g
Amen!!❤️❤️
THE BEST BREAK UP SONG EVER
Missing is one of the best songs of all time, just stunning.
The original is MUCH better than the remix in my opinion
Missing, wrong, walking wounded are all out of this world.
Gaurav Sharma , yeah u are prob right 👍🏻🙂
EBTG is one of the best electronic music groups in the world.
downhill racer..
Tracey's voice is like buttered honey.
not in our year
I'm 58 now but when Tracy goes into Missing chills encapsulate from head to toe .
57 and same here!
ah the 90s, where you can wear jeans and a hoodie. and your voice and talent does the job..
So true
thats true; however i think is better if u are an artist to wear something better. They looked like if were buying at supermarket...

I miss their music, like the deserts miss the rain
🖤🖤🖤
Yeah, too bad they had to fuck it all up by falling in love, getting married, and having kids. They’ve gone on record saying that ended the band.

This should be the only comment!
@@StrangeAttractor So awful. All of it just about
Seriously, I could listen to Tracey Thorn singing the phone book
😅😅
best version of this song..
How good is she ??? That’s called singing, no computers and all the tech, just talent.
True but u sound like an old head lol
@@stavisince9595 unfortunately - a very old head , with a body to match , trying to convince myself otherwise . Cheers .

I don't want excuses
I don't want your smiles
I don't want to feel like we're apart a thousand miles
I don't want your attitude
I don't want your things
I don't want a phone that never rings
I want your love, and I want it now
I want your love, and I want it now
I don't want your history
I don't want that stuff
I want you to shut your mouth
That would be enough
I don't care if you've been here before
You don't understand
Tonight, I feel above the law, I'm coming in to land
I want your love, and I want it now
I want your love, and I want it now
My heart is that much harder now
That's what I thought before today
My heart is that much harder now
And I thought that it would stay that way, before today
Before today
I don't want a phone that never rings
I want your love, and I want it now

Always beautiful 🥰

Yes, I saw that too
England has produced so many legendary artists - I still keep discovering new ones every now and then!
Yes, it's true
One of my favorite versions of Missing. Nice and chill.
The great Danny Thompson on bass

no idea how many times I heard that song, but I still get goosebumps every time I hear it
Same. And I dont get that feeling for the garbage music we have this days.
Is my mantra.
What an incredible time machine trip this is. You just feel like you could get lost in the music, her voice, and that setting.
One of the sweetest voices in pop
Tracey thorn..... what an underrated artist..... great record..... those were the days.
Amen.
The whole scene of this performance captures a very dream like ethereal quality... its just perfection
Genuine drum & bass
We need a fresh new album. A deep house like Temperamental. Tracey and Ben, you can do it.
They've done that. Who says that more than 20 years later, even if they ever did a new record, that's where their heads would be at?
AND I MISS THEM (EBTG) LIKE THE DESSERT MISS THE RAIN.
Prayer answered. See: Nothing Left To Lose. 2023.
@@davelafave6678 That's great news! I'm listening "Nothing left to lose" now 🙂
Ask you you shall receive. It was released a couple of weeks ago.
The dancing girls are out of their element. Beautiful music. Tracy is a beautiful singer.
They cant reach Tracy's element
They're doing just fine!
There's something so cool and groovy about the synths and the acoustic upright bass playing with each other. I wish the studio recording had that, but at least we have these live versions.

Cant believe this is 23 years ago ffs 😥
yes, you believe
25, now...
Amazing
2023 04 28 still ❤️
Run a red light listen to that
I understood that reference.
Totally forgotten about this song until 10 minutes ago, oh the memories come flooding back
Atmospheric, lovely, nostalgic. Like someone whispering sweetly in your ear.
I actually love the girls here. Adds a surreal slow-motion/time warp thing
this is what music should be, greetings from taiwan
I like how respectful the crowd is along with the beautiful vocals of Tracey ❤️❤️ I miss this kind of music being popular

They are one of the most epic bands of all times, totally feel u! 🖤
Danny Thompson on bass..................beautiful touch!!!
30 years and still bangin' in my head & in my heart. probably one of the best hit ever!
Those years, when we were young and there wasn't COVID-19
We were so innocent then!
They sound extremely good live here
One of the greatest voices in my opinion..so glad I know about their jams...ebtg
Beautiful singer, beautiful voice.
How many memories of an era that made your heart beat ...
now everything is over.
EBTG magical !!!

bloody brilliant.
Before Today is the jam. Love EBTG
My God! That bass is such a great addition to Missing. Fabulous.
Jesus! Brings me to another dimension. Both of them sing like angels. And the band - just so talented.
Extremely talented. I miss them.
the way she sings her influence is still out there
Before Today is too good it’s held up with Time I played it for some friends recently and they couldn’t believe that it was from the 90’s
Synth pop never get old
This version of Missing is the best I've heard. How many remixes exist out there? Yet this one rules
One of the best albums ever. 'Walking Wounded'
Their songs always give me a tightness in my chest. They're wonderful. Too bad they don't have the recognition they deserve so much.
her voice is so beautiful....even live!? luv EBTG!
Loved them both since
I found them in Eden 😉
AND I MISS THEM (EBTG) LIKE THE DESSERT MISS THE RAIN.
I still treasure the memory of seeing EBTG on the language of life tour
Tracey got a pure voice to move the deaf, dumb & blind with her magical voice 💋💋💋💕Ur the best to please my soul too
2022 still loving your music, your vibe and your great talent. YESSSS!!!!!
Wow, wonderful to see these tracks live. The bass player is Danny Thompson, a real virtuoso bass player. Incredible performance.
that kind of video One gives the Thumbs Up even before watching. may we be lucky enough to see these Two going on Tour once again! ! !
At least the dancing girls are on a different stage!
Yes it’s kinda strange as the ladies in red don’t really fit with the band vibes?
Best music from 80's and 90's, brings a lot of memories from my hometown California.
these girls dancing... please! but EBTG is always great!
But they tryin.
the stockings got me........
I greatly love her amazing singing and songs !!!
Só temos a agradecer por durante tantos anos essa banda maravilhosa ter feito tantas músicas lindas que marcaram nossas vidas! Obrigado!
Beautiful music. Obrigado.
I saw them on this tour in a venue just like this and loved it ❤️😊💯
I've watched this countless times on VHS and YT. Great show & performance, of course.
A very good song ....from Tracey Thorn ( Everything but the girl). SUPERB SONG !
I love these girls' dance. 💗
🙋🏼♀ Thx. never heard it b4,
and im from 1982.

Beatiful, Old times, Very times, forever for me is the best times 90´s
At first sight, I thought she was doing lip sync. What a voice!!!
Thank you for this video.😀
Run a red light is great! Voice deeper, same intensity! Great album! I love before today live version in Japan
Una gran voz una gran banda ❤❤❤ tracy
What a great rarity of a video of EBTG live! Wonderful!
Love this duo, this is just beautiful music.

OMG! I really miss the 90s. 😢
Thank you Tracy and ebtg...your voice and band beats got me to 2020...through trying times...❤
One of the best bands from this era.
My God! what an excellent performance
Great group and song!!!!
Tracey Thorn ❤️️
Before today is way better than Missing. Before today sets the tone to my religion, like every day is x-mas.
very smooth! always loved this group!! miss this music!
Techno with heart and soul.
Everything is AMAZING, but the Girls dancing in background :) Love EBTG.
Who the hell thought they were a good idea? Not old school feminist Tracey.

Probably one of the best songs and arrangements to hit our ears. I still cry when I hear it. Beautiful
