I saw them perform this song in 1989 at the New Orleans Super Dome. One of the top moments for me. The entire concert was fantastic. Saw the '81 Tour in New Orleans as well ...not so much
This is one of their hidden gems 💎 ✨️, they rarely play this in concert 🎉🎉 This is a tasty treat. This song takes you on a musical journey 🎉🎉 The Stones are definitely coming in hot 🔥 on this one. I I love their vintage music 🎉🎉
My mind would melt if they played this 2024. As an aside (dear diary) I just saw em in Orlando a few weeks ago and traveling to Vancouver to catch their last show in North America. It’ll be my 9th Stones show. My goal is to see em 10x before it’s too late 🤙🏻

Mick has the physical strength and balance of a man of 21 and one who is a gymnast. Pretty, pretty, pretty Incredible!!! Each time that I watch his opening "Dance" routine, I, strongly, get the sense that Mick is deeply channeling David Bowie in his emotional interpretation of 2000 Light Years w/o saying a single word. Using, only, his facial and bodily expressions to tell the tale.
Yes, can almost hear Bowie covering this one. It has at least half of the Space Oddity theme, and could preface his Hello Spaceboy. But this performance naturally precedes Bowie's 1990s adventures into schizoid-art
Saw same tour at LA Coliseum. Clapton came on stage for Little Red Rooster. Opening acts were Living Colour and Guns N Roses. A splendid time was had by all.
@@frankfrank7921 It was mind blowing when they played 2000 Light Years From Home. Living Color opened for them @ Shay. I think Little Red Rooster featuring Clapton came out on the Flash Point CD.. It must have been awesome to have seen Runs N Roses with The Stones --- Cool !!!
I dreamed I was back in Bangkok last night, I went over to my lifelong buddy's (Doug) place in BKK. (we are Canadians, and we both have Thai wives, and we're all going back to BKK soon), in my dream when I got to Doug's place he was playing this song.....I had to look it up and listen to it ...Haven't heard it for years...What a Stoney dream EH.....
That's a rare one for live. Saw them twice on this tour but don't recall this. I think it was the last tour with Bill, so glad I got to see them with him. Nice keyboars from Matt and Chuck,
it's kinda sad, because Kieth,Mick said this was lighting in a bottle ,but he wishes they didn't trip as much much of the music suffered,1967 lost year he says. i dig this!!!

2000 Light Years From Home The Rolling Stones Produced by The Rolling Stones Album: Their Satanic Majesties Request [Verse 1] Sun turnin' 'round with graceful motion We're setting off with soft explosion Bound for a star with fiery oceans It's so very lonely, you're a hundred light years from home Freezing red deserts turn to dark Energy here in every part It's so very lonely, you're six hundred light years from home [Chorus] It's so very lonely, you're a thousand light years from home It's so very lonely, you're a thousand light years from home [Verse 2] Bell flight fourteen you now can land See you on Aldebaran, safe on the green desert sand It's so very lonely, you're two thousand light years from home It's so very lonely, you're two thousand light years from home Written By: Keith Richards & Mick Jagger Release Date: December 8, 1967
In the original, it starts out 100 light years and every refrain notches it up until we hit 2000 light years. Also, these videos need to list credits. for this show in Tokyo - that is Eric Clapton on keyboards, at least for some of the songs. I do love this song, and of course the Stones can sing it however they want!
Eric Clapton never played keys for the Stones. He did a guest appearance on guitar in Atlantic city, that's all. Chuck Leavell and Matt Clifford covered keys throughout the tour.
And oh how they danced The little children of Stonehenge Beneath the haunted moon For fear that daybreak might come too soon And where are they now? The little people of Stonehenge And what would they say to us? If we were here, tonight
Jones just did not write songs, and that more than anything caused him to lag behind the other guys’ musical maturing. Mick and Keith went from covering blues standards they heard on US-import LPs to writing chart topping hits one after another, and with a completely original sound. Still, it was Brian’s spirit that created the Stones. He was the Roman candle that for a moment burned so bright. But he could not last.
Sus satánicas majestades fue un álbum muy especial para la época en el que fue elaborado, si te sumerges en el álbum deberás tener en cuenta cambiar tu estado mental para poder disfrutar de mejor manera.
I'm not sure if it is the heavy use of the mellotron, or the fact that they are both about futuristic space travel or just that they were both released within a year of each other, but this song always reminds me of the movie Barbarella. Anyone else feel the connection?
My dad was a small time party promoter he paid the stones 1800$ to play at the memorial auditorium couldn’t sell the tickets and lost his ass . They stayed w us cause they were poor . I was 3 I remember sitting in Laps of them looking at faces thinking weird things as child lol
why did this track remain so earthbound? why was it not elaborated....made to last longer with sax, violins, and multiple guitars, varied percussion.... please revise.
I’ve been listening to The Rolling Stones since the inception of the stones when Mick and Brian had it out and Brian screwed up BAD when he walked away in 69 and unfortunately Jones passed later that year...with the replacement of Taylor by the great Ron Wood that band just doesn’t give us...the original band technically after the shape up with Jagger, Richard(s) Ron Wood and Charlie Watts and Wyman and they just kept getting better and better but the end of this song did not have to be added...that just shows the filth Jagger and friends let creep up in the band...and a few other live moves they made..I’m sure most don’t care what the stones do but they will be in the 90’s soon and they should slow it down a touch...well not the stones because it’s their music that makes the band...and I wonder how many people has lipps on everything around their house?? It’s all good in the end...
Looking at the detailed chronology in early 1967, it appears that the Rolling Stones broke the ice for Pink Floyd with the album Satanic Majesties Request (hence the initial rejection of this splendid album, as Pink Floyd, just before that time, was not viewed as "music")
@mtopper66 Thanks for correcting me. I was just talking in the more general world setting: not everybody lives in the UK, Pink Floyd was viewed initially as a small tentative band with a new sort of music. Whereas the superstar Rolling Stones had been playing this kind of music too, to some extent, for quite a while: theremins are used in Between the Buttons (January 1967), prior to Arnold Layne (March 1967) and Satanic. The electronic turn of the Stones caused a scandal at the time, some Stones fans wanted to sell their entire vinyl collection. The Pink Floyd sound was more futuristic but there too Brian Jones had introduced fancy and wonderful instruments in preceding years... as early as the Not Fade Away cover in 1964, with a theremin. That's what I meant by breaking the ice (of new sound). The Beatles and The Who played their part too. Even the Beach Boys in Good Vibrations and The Monkeys used electronic instruments. And as far as Pink Floyd not being music, they were refused payment for a performance just for that, sued, and lost, because the British judge found that, indeed, what Pink Floyd did, was not music...
Cool that the Stones occasionally included this great song in their live act, never seen them play it in concert before - it’s awesome!
They played it at Glastonbury as well. Worth checking out.
Love WATTS drum line, miss him BAD!!!
I saw them perform this song in 1989 at the New Orleans Super Dome. One of the top moments for me. The entire concert was fantastic. Saw the '81 Tour in New Orleans as well ...not so much
Played it at Legion Field in Birmingham AL in 1989 on Steel Wheels tour. Awesome!
Was absolute highlight of the Steel Wheels / Urban Jungle tour. Caught them in Gothenburg in 1990.
Still one of my Stones favourites.
This is one of their hidden gems 💎 ✨️, they rarely play this in concert 🎉🎉 This is a tasty treat. This song takes you on a musical journey 🎉🎉 The Stones are definitely coming in hot 🔥 on this one. I I love their vintage music 🎉🎉
The Stones musical vocabulary is so vast that is it is a true blessing that they do this live.
Lets see the 3-D version!!! W/ Glasses!
So many songs to chose from, to play from their set list. I wonder if this was a hit in 1967.
It was never released as a single on the UK.
❤psych Stones
Three chord songs do not constitute a vast musical vocabulary.
The greatest rock n roll band on the planet ladies and gentlemen The Rolling Stones
LOL
My mind would melt if they played this 2024. As an aside (dear diary) I just saw em in Orlando a few weeks ago and traveling to Vancouver to catch their last show in North America. It’ll be my 9th Stones show. My goal is to see em 10x before it’s too late 🤙🏻

Saw this tour in '90 at the L.A. Coliseum with Living Colour and Guns & Roses opening- the Stones blew them both away
That show was actually in October of 1989. I have the Stones Tour Shirt and the Guns Tour Shirt.

I saw The Rolling Stones Perform 2000 Light Years From Home @ Shay Stadium 1989 on the Steel Wheels Tour they just blew me away !
A far superior show to this one. Plus being with NYers at Shea Stadium

@@gogoyubari366 Thanks for that Mr. Ushii
wow that they could re-capture that sound......……….incredible.
This is a true classic that I’ve never heard live before old man Mick got it together.
WOW! Never knew this existed. What a great job! Once of my favorite lp's along with Between the Buttons!
Only got to hear this song today. Love it. Folks will still be rocking to it.. 2000 light years from now.
The most mind-blowing thing is that... that's his job.
I dreamed I was back in Bangkok last night, I went over to my lifelong buddy's (Doug) place in BKK.

Live performance sounds so perfect
Awesome song ❤️. Rolling stones are geniuses.

Great bass line. 6:48
One of my favorite stones songs.
Now because of this song I want to travel back in time.
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times...
Très belle interprétation de ce super morceau des stones, des génies
Great song 🎵 👌 👏 👍
Do I have to mention why 2000 Light Years Away From Home is one of the Stones best songs.

Your right, if this was the lost year I hope they never find it TREMENDOUS they are the best!!!!!
Their very best. Almost anyone’s very best.
Absolutely mindblowing!
Strangely enough, 40 years later, I like this song
This song came out 52 years ago.
My favorite stones song
Mine too. They capture the essence of loneliness perfectly. Not what you’d expect from a rock band, but there you are.
Best Version ever. Live travel to time, l know. ♥️🔥👍🌍💯
love how chuck leavell throws in splices from the piano part of 'she's a rainbow' at @1:00
The real star of this version.... C. Leavell! :)
I think on this occasion it may have been Matt Clifford
Sin duda la banda mas grande que dió el Planeta Tierra,de Todos Los Tiempos...GRACIAS...
Hat nicht jeder auf´m Schirm! Genial zu der Zeit!
Best Stones thing I ever heard, apart from the studio version.
Agree, wish they had this on their live sessions all the time
I saw them in Gillette. I'm a life long fan. Great show.

SAW THEM AT THE GARDEN 94 YEAH BABY, WE HAVE ARRIVED

2000 Light Years From Home
The Rolling Stones
Produced by The Rolling Stones
Album: Their Satanic Majesties Request
[Verse 1]
Sun turnin' 'round with graceful motion
We're setting off with soft explosion
Bound for a star with fiery oceans
It's so very lonely, you're a hundred light years from home
Freezing red deserts turn to dark
Energy here in every part
It's so very lonely, you're six hundred light years from home
[Chorus]
It's so very lonely, you're a thousand light years from home
It's so very lonely, you're a thousand light years from home
[Verse 2]
Bell flight fourteen you now can land
See you on Aldebaran, safe on the green desert sand
It's so very lonely, you're two thousand light years from home
It's so very lonely, you're two thousand light years from home
Written By: Keith Richards & Mick Jagger
Release Date: December 8, 1967
BRILLIANT ALBUM
SIEMPRE HE DICHO QUE ESTA ROLA ES UNA OBRA MAESTRA DE LOS ETERNOS STONES
Qué genial esta versión!!! El show es excelente,gracias por subirlo.-
Amazing sounds!
Masterpiece
Poor mick he forgot its 600 light years , then 1000 light years , then 2000 light years,from home, still never seen this live so ok.
Love this song
cheers... hugs from Lisbon!
R I P Charlie Watts.
I remember playing this a a kid…was the B side of Little Red Rooster 45 Vinyl I think.
In the original, it starts out 100 light years and every refrain notches it up until we hit 2000 light years. Also, these videos need to list credits. for this show in Tokyo - that is Eric Clapton on keyboards, at least for some of the songs. I do love this song, and of course the Stones can sing it however they want!
Eric Clapton on keyboards?
Eric Clapton never played keys for the Stones. He did a guest appearance on guitar in Atlantic city, that's all. Chuck Leavell and Matt Clifford covered keys throughout the tour.
Not a stones fan, just like certain songs...this is one of them.
Seen it right away , spot light shadow... Mick Jagger a true spokesman in every sense of the Way...
And oh how they danced
The little children of Stonehenge
Beneath the haunted moon
For fear that daybreak might come too soon
And where are they now?
The little people of Stonehenge
And what would they say to us?
If we were here, tonight
@Viking Spinnaalllll Taaappppp!!!
How I miss the miniature Stonehenge to land right before Mick's feet🤣
I like your logo! and your comment.
though I dunno what it's all about ...
perfect version. my friend and I saw a nice one 'auf schalke' say 1990.
*Amo esta canción*
Es tremendamente hermosa Elisabet...mucho gusto,desde Brasil...
They should play that regularly. They hardly ever do!
I've always wanted to see the Stones play live...
Never had the chance
why not? where do you live - if I may ask?
great song great band
Their best song.
Great version from best tour!!
The best tour is 1981
The Greatest band ever !
1967 was avery fine year for this one,and maybe 2021 and on .hmn? Brian jones never did get too much credit for this one.Thanks elnegrovilla!
Jones just did not write songs, and that more than anything caused him to lag behind the other guys’ musical maturing. Mick and Keith went from covering blues standards they heard on US-import LPs to writing chart topping hits one after another, and with a completely original sound. Still, it was Brian’s spirit that created the Stones. He was the Roman candle that for a moment burned so bright. But he could not last.
Best version EVER. AMAZING.
Spacig, Independent Rock, vout of Time , Nothing enough from this....
BRIAN JONES What a SONGWRITER and BRILLIANT Musician !!!!😮😎g
Except, he wrote no songs.
Jones did very little songwriting. I’ll agree he brought a creativity to the Stones but there’s a reason he fell out of favor as the groups leader.
Need Brian on mellotron and theremin.
They would have brought Brian that night, but Keith forgot to put the shovels in the boot.
Brian is missing..
Be great if they'd given him a shout out for his contributions on this track, but as if they were gonna do that! Huge pity.
Triplo "mi piace " questa è una delle mie preferite del loro repertorio

5:07 Off to get funky backstage :)
Later joined by the other two.
Favorite stones song
Wait, this is kinda magnificent. Sure sorry I missed this one live.
I'm not sure if it is the heavy use of the mellotron, or the fact that they are both about futuristic space travel or just that they were both released within a year of each other, but this song always reminds me of the movie Barbarella.
Anyone else feel the connection?
A connection to Barbarella? No. But wondering if this song would have existed without King Crimson?
@@johntechwriterConsidering the song came out in 1967, yes
Wonderful People see listen
COOL AT THE COOLEST
How on god’s green earth did he keep a straight face during that?
Early Stones , Brian Jones era
Мик Джаггер очень артистичен и талантлив : он мне очень нравится и вся его группа,
Rest In Piece, Charley.
Rest in peace, Mr. Watts.
Epic
A lackluster version of a fantastic psychedelic rock song.
Óptimo tema
Back when they were young(er).
From the Stone's "psychedelic" album.
Shame Brian isn’t playing how much better that would have sounded with the best musician they ever had we will never know sadly
My dad was a small time party promoter he paid the stones 1800$ to play at the memorial auditorium couldn’t sell the tickets and lost his ass . They stayed w us cause they were poor . I was 3 I remember sitting in Laps of them looking at faces thinking weird things as child lol

I have just seen them.
Belo trabalho
why did this track remain so earthbound? why was it not elaborated....made to last longer with sax, violins, and multiple guitars, varied percussion.... please revise.
Great song but they did it entirely too fast. Studio version is steady. This felt rushed.
Agreed.
Keith hates this album, but Mick still has a soft spot for it.
Keith is great in this
Los Pink Stones
Saw the teleprompter at 1:23
MJ has stated he does not use a teleprompter.
Brian Jones Mellotron Classic from 1967
Richards guitar is genius
So they can do some old songs justice .
Great video on a great song. Did Bill play bass on this one?
