"The music video was shot live in the MuchMusic CHUM-City Building in Toronto, before and during their Intimate & Interactive performance in May 1998.
"Psychopomp" is a reworking of a composition called "Something More" that Jeff Burrows and Jeff Martin wrote as teenagers." (Wikipedia)

Truly this is an underrated classic, and it's a pity that so few people even know of this band at all. On the other hand, one could say that this is a hidden gem; a kind of reward/musical enlightenment for those willing to wade past the atrocious muck that is forced upon us today by big name record companies looking for a quick $. I know I'm melodramatic, but not much I've heard in recent years makes me FEEL the way these older tunes do, which is precisely what music is supposed to do :)
Hello from 2024. Your comment is still valid. Nothing has changed for the better. It even got worse
God I fucking LOVE THIS BAND!!!!!!!
Ellen lip sync
I really don't understand how anyone can dislike this song.. It's so amazing and they do such a good job performing it.
One of the rare bands that sound almost better live than on the album.
Nothing wrong with the CD's but yeah - the variations they do in concert makes for unique performances that could never be captured. You experience them and leave the concert a better person!
You speak truth my friend - how many other rock bands will pull out the sitar in the middle of a set and jam? I count myself one of the lucky few!
@@EM-dr3nk They got back together shortly before you made this comment!
I just saw them last night for the first time in Peterborough ontario. Was not let down. They are unreal live. Jeff martin is the man
Agreed I really prefer this live!
One of their best songs ever! The song certainly hasn’t aged!
Oh Jeff Martin, what a sultry voice you have.
reminds me of my high school days in the 90s... i loved this album, and this song.. its magic!
My favourite Tea party song of all time. :D
Me too😊
This one is divine!!! Pure beyond words! What a bunch of excellent musicians! And when he screams... it goes through the bones! Gosh i Love it ❤
Psychopomp was the song that grabbed me when i first brought the Trasmission cd, the lyrics on most of the songs blew me away so i rushed out and got myself a copy of Splendor Solice and Edges of Twilight and i've never looked back.
I can't believe there's so much interest in this band; it's nice to see. I used to listen to them in the 90s and thought they'd been forgotten.
Just saw them at The Roxy in LA in April. My first show. So AWESOME!!!
Oh not forgotten!! My love for The Tea Party was transmitted to my children... we are still amazed everytime we are listening them ❤
Best live perfomance I've seen in my whole life!!!!
Greatest version of The Tea Party's greatest song! Long live THE TEA PARTY! LOVE this band! \m/
Wow, this song almost brought me to tears.
I just keep playing this song over and over
Just saw these guys live for Canada Day, fucking love them.
THIS IS ABSOLUTE !!! nothing less, nothing more...
The tea party rocks.... my teacher dated the lead singer for a period of a year and a half... but dumped him 3 years b4 he recorded his first album... to this day shes convinced shes the reason he went into music...
i love that they use the scope of instruments to enhance their fantastic songs. orchestra accompaniments are amazing and they do it a lot.
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. The best song from tea party!
this deserves more views...
They had a huge following in Australia also. Great live band to see. would be nice to have them back.
beautiful song,beautiful band.I miss them
Oh ya get to see these guys live on july 9th in Sarnia Ontario welcome back guys we missed you.
Wow, Jeff is feeling it to death here. Extremely passionate vocals, may be the best live version of Psychopomp ever.
Love this song so much.
I have been a fan since 1994, and I am digging getting to view these vids for the first time, in some cases.
I just had an eargasm. This is the best live performance I have seen of this one. Thankfully, I moved to the far Pacific Northwest in 1996 and soon got a dose of "Temptation" on Vancouver radio in the car. Had every CD within a week. Amazing band and amazing times back then.
Shakes my soul every single time I listen to it....Supernatural
Sheer power in those vocals, so much passion. Tea Party live are such a treat to all who attend. Thank you TP much
wish they would come back to the maratimes again, saw them 10 plus years ago at ST.Francis university in antogonish, nova scotia, five feet from the stage, alcohol drums, and jeff letting it loose, great experience, love to see them again
Saw them tonight at Hamilton first Ontario centre and they were fantastic. This three piece cuts through the crowd like they did almost 30 years ago when they formed. The set list was phenomenal. My son took me for my birthday and we had a blast.
Jeff Martin has a voice that I could die listening too. Gave me goosebumps when i seen them live in 2002, and still to this day am i too hear someone who gives me the same feeling of utter amazment and bewilderment as he did. I HEART JEFF MARTIN!!
Have seen this band at least a dozen times since the 90's and I will keep right on going every chance I get, absolutely brilliant!
Met him at a restaurant in mississauga..... asked for an autograph and he wrote “Richard..... heavens coming down” ...... I looked at him and he could tell I was confused ...... he smiled and said “ it will make sense in a few months “....... heard the song on the radio a few months later and lost my mind lol
Badass orchestration
amazing how a song can instantly take you back to a place and time ( both Good and Bad )..... top 5 songs of all time ...... hearing it live is unreal.
MASTERPIECE
Yes... an absolute masterpiece!!!
Seen these guys soo many times and each time was better than the last. I haven't listened to them for a while though. I need to. It's been too long. Still my fav. Canadian band though!
Saw them live last night and they were fantastic. This is my favorite song by The Tea Party and seeing it performed live was mind blowing.
I want it all.
Don’t we all?
I friggin love The Tea Party.
About... 10 years ago, I was again awake upone Night, and can not sleep.
I turned on the TV. And on one of those stations that I normally never watch^^ was a report over the boys. It was about exactly this album, the tour they have made...by various countries and the Middle East definite influence the album!
The next morning I bought the cd:)
So beautiful !!!!!
Jeff + this song ! lol
How delicious is Jeff Martin's baritone voice from Canadian band The Tea Party. His voice reminds me a lot of the gorgeous low tones that Jim Morrison of the Doors especially thinking of vocals in Riders On the Storm. Love it!! My baritone singing students LOVE this singer!
Honestly... I don't see anything that ruins this video... just perfection :P
For those of us who remember - it never did. It is timeless.
this song and album is The Tea Party at thier peak.
Man, I never heard of the Tea Party until I came to Canada 10 years ago and as soon as I heard them I felt like I found something that's been missing my whole life. They are still one of my favourite acts of all time, their music is on another level, beyond description. I saw them live only once at Toronto Rocks, one of the best shows I've been to
I've heard this song 100s of times... and it still moves me! A truly amazing build to a crescendo of Rockin F*&%in brilliance!!!!!! Nuff said!
Love this. Thanks ROAD rash 3D. From Portugal with Love
Road Rash 3D also brought me the best band I heard in my life!
Ma boyyy
Also heard them first on RR3D!!
I don't understand how can this song be disliked....
i listen to alot of rap and metal and such, mainly because that type of music gets me going. that said, i can still recognize talent, and when i want to listen to music that i can truly say is art, i listen to the tea party
I would of love to see him do this song live. he puts his very soul into this song when he sings and plays it. this song alone is what makes teaparty so great.
Impressive song by Tea Party. I saw them once live: totally !@##$@. These guys know how to lay a heavy foundation and then make it heavier and darker. Personally I think this is their best song. Hurray Tea Party! Canada ftw. :-)
+Erwin Moller They will have new material out soon. Source: Facebook TTP Official
This band is amazing. I have seen so many live shows of all types of music for years and years and seeing The Tea Party headline Edgefest 98 (or 99 maybe) in Van was one amazing show. Nothing can really touch it. This song in particular..it built up layer after layer into this immense wall of crystal clear sound and when I looked around me, 40,000 ppl were completely dumbfounded, slack jaw gawking. Unreal.
goddamn, they were fantastic live
Love the use of many instruments. My grandpa just died a few days ago. Psychopomp is a guide to the afterlife (I'm not religious but I enjoy the stories). Of course psychopomp can be seen many things, grim reaper, an angel or many other spirits or figures. I guess it really depends on the religion or culture. The Tea Party write a lot of their songs based on historical events.
one of the best group ever
Apparently, the guy on the piano there wrote the soundtrack for Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, which is awesome.
+Josh Rose and warrior within :)
Not to mention Darkest Dungeon!
He's brilliant.
Makes sense. These guys have been infusing their music with Middle Eastern influences for over two decades, so I imagine that if a fusion of traditional Middle Eastern sound with an epic sound in the Western tradition is what you want, this is where you look!
Also, I just looked, and Stuart Chatwood (the guy) has actually composed music which has appeared on the soundtracks for 8 or 9 different Prince of Persia games. Dude is super talented.
Woah...that took me by surprise... badass!
come on, who doesnt agree this song should have a million views?
god damn i love Jeff's delicious voice and face. meowzers
this man and his music gives me chills. I love it!
Beautiful
Knew this band a long time ago, great stuff so wished they toured outside of Canada and brought it to the UK :D ty for upload
If you had seen them live playing with the Calgary Philharmonic the way I did.. it literally changed my life. I'd give anything to meet them. and let them know how they influenced my life. It involves more than just music.
I watched them live once in Australia... will never forget it!!
Great version of this one. I remember wearing that Transmission CD out back in '98. Finally got to see them live in Vancouver for the Triptych tour. Memories.
Very cool version with the string section. The song aged so well, it still sounds amazing many years after it was originally released.
Ah.. I could fall asleep to this song, it's like a lullaby and at the same time it's pretty haunting. Awesome creation.
They are back on tour! Can't believe I'm seeing them tomorrow night!!! SO exited!!
I've always loved The Tea Party... temptation, Heaven's coming down... Being a Canadian, we listened to them on the radio all the time. Then, lo and behold, later in life I become a fan of a great band called Nevermore, and when I look at their new album "The Obsidian Conspiracy" they are covering The Tea Party's song Temptation as a bonus track. People... I have ALWAYS compared the two vocalists, who both have perfect pitch and similar tonal qualities. I am PUMPED.
Got to see them live in Canada probably 15 years ago now (omg realizing that it was that long ago makes me feel very depressed).
Really, really amazing show.
God I miss them!!!
The fact that people are adding comments 4 years after this was uploaded speaks spades about how timeless and legendary their music is. I grew up with them and have comeback in a big way. Saw them live for first time at recent acoustic tour in Aust. awesome show!! Their influence is still paying off with great bands like Muse building on their legacy....and can't wait for their new album on 2014!
Wow, i dont know what to say, just awesome....
The piano riff that starts at 0:44 is haunting.
This always gives me chills... amazing.
Just perfect !!! +++++++++++
I've had to watch too many in my life fade away to this.
Going to see them on July 7, can't wait :D
Best song ever
@whatuptino .. U my friend took the words right out of my mouth!...
Love the symphonic sound of these guys. It would be great to hear them with a full symphony accompany
♥ u Stuart!!
Saw this live and loved it. Hot damn.
gives me goosebumps everytime
@gaelic13beauty Me too.... Me too... This song is just one of those rare beauties that allow us to really reflect on our thoughts...
Long after the song is finished, I can still feel the depth and the meaning of this song running through my veins.
absolutely amazing.. the most seductive of sound... a masterpiece at it's finest. love love love it
Jeff Martin must be a fucking nightmare to record. The guys got such a huge dynamic range between his quiet and loud singing volumes, you'd need a *really* *really* good microphone to avoid it distoring like hell. Bowie was like that too, really hard to record For heroes they used *5* different mics at different distances, so that when he'd get louder and the mic would distort, they'd cut to a further one, repeating the process as the song built up and his singing got more and more intense. Bowie was in fact so loud, he was able to sing without amplification at his early gigs and keep up in volume with the guitar amps. I kind of imagine Jeff Martins Louder passages might be a bit like that.
OMG how come I've never heard this before?! This song is fucking epic!
Tellement beau / So beautiful!
amazing
Jeff Burrows one of my favourite drummers.
This version is so much better than the studio version.
Estos tíos son unos máquinas!
I listen to the crap out of Transmission when it came out. Still listen to it today.
Best Canadian band of all time. I wish I could get Jeff to sing to some of my music,
They're the band The Cult wish they could of been.
@Andreas Baader Lamest comment ever in the history of youtube by far. Though there are similarities to The Cult (not vice versa) it is a disproportional comparison. The Cult is a much more succesful and famous band than The Tea Party. Still a nice band but not better at any point.
+ANTonURarse Have any fuckin' ears? The Cult's just a rock band, mate, the Tea Party is capable of expressing complex emotion (hope that's not too diep for ya').
Ever hear of The Guess Who ?
Devin Townsend disagrees!
I absolutely love them... And this song...ooooh!!
Still amazing in 2017!!!!!!!!
