Finally got to see them in the US alongside Suede (two off the bucket list at once!) and while their setlist wasn't what I had hoped for, especially in comparison to the other act, their energy and enthusiasm was fully intact. They may have softened edges these days but I am surprised these guys can still deliver like that. Certainly helps to have one of the slickest drummers in the biz.
Wasn’t that impressed on first listen.. then found myself singing it to myself.. had a few more listens.. now its one of their better tracks 😅 love manics
Really enjoyed this performance. Shout out to the killer keys work of Nick Naysmyth. As for the "fans" stating they should stop - why dont you listen to something else and let those of us who genuinely love the Manics and still do enjoy what they produce? No one is forcing you to listen or watch.
Naysmyth and Warren brings a complete sound to the trio now. And Thats right. You cannot be wearing fatigues and churning out Die In The Summertime for every single year. I love the Manics for what they were and what they are now. You guys aged gracefully and keep on making great music. Thank you. From a fan of over 30 years.
I don't think they should STOP. But the new singles sound like they could have come from either of the last two albums. They've never done three albums _in a row_ that all sound the same before. It's just a bit disappointing. So I hope the new album is a bit more varied. And not Resistance is Futile part 3.... There's nothing wrong with the last two albums. They're just a bit safe and I am missing the edgy MSP.
@@DavidOakesMusicThere's only so many times you can re-invent the wheel. I'm sure if they did something crazy different people (not necessarily you) would be complaining about THAT too.
Still not a massive fan of this track, but it does seem to sound a lot better as a live track for some reason. Perhaps benefits from the guitars being louder in the mix vs the synths?
Same here - Postcards is my favorite of their journey's latter half, the former being GAtS, but the band was disappointed with that release in the end and will sadly probably never go back to that style. I'll take what I can get!
@@Linesider1 Interesting! This is the first time I noticed, but of course I wasn't watching every video in the last years and I haven't seen them live for a long time.
Guys pls leave these soft songs to some boys pop band. Play real rockenroll, return to punk and hard core roots. I know that youre mature, but Deep purple are also and they issued in 2024 such a great hard rock album.
Creative ?! It seems your really young pop rockenroller. I listened to MSP from 1992 when they issued Motorcycle Emptiness. This was creative. Or Roses in the hospital, or This is yesterday...This one sucks.
@@TalicniTom-tp9qz well maybe I double your age in the Rock and Roll space, furthermore I am musician and producer, so maybe you don't like the song, that's perfectly fine, not every hit that comes out eveyone has to like, but let me tell you from a musical and production stand point, t is quite clear that there is an excellent work behind it
@@fert9825Yes but without the soul as Gold against the soul. Good production sometimes not enough. Somethings missing. Thats what happend also with the Stones, U2, Metallica....And what was with their statement that they will jam one classic as the Pistols and fall apart?
This is just a masterpiece. Such a present to us fans who have been with them for years. It's music for dads who weren't dads in the 90s.
JDB is such a legend ❤️🔥
Jeb du hast recht
I concur!
The most important thing is after years they still enjoy and are happy together while making and playing..And still rocks.
Heard this for the first time at Ally Pally on the Manics tour in July. Instantly loved it, even after all these years the Manics have still got it
I was there too but it wasn't on the setlist. Did they do it during soundcheck?

i just love them - they're still so grounded. Like the college band i wish we could have been :)
The Manics are like a fine wine. Each song gets better and better. Bravo from Milwaukee, WISCONSIN
Great song great performance,it's even better live.Love from Greece.
That build up before the final chorus, very Autumn Song!
Amazing drumming from Sean as usual.
Dad trainers killing it in 2024... love the Manics !!!!
Piel de gallina, Legends, returns!!
Chiar ne-au surprins frumos!
Absolute tune! Again, the boys deliver 🏴
I can really relate to this song.Totally love it ❤✌️
Love this song!!!!! Well done!
Nicky’s smile throughout this ❤️❤️❤️
That Petrol Emotion sample at the very start (Creeping to the Cross)
Yeah! I heard that and had to rewind to make sure I hadn't imagined it
And OMD?
Almost sounded like the old Roland CR78 intro to Enola Gay at the very start..... I'll have to go back and listen to it again to make sure, LOLZ.
yep think your right there
Yes I thought that too
Wow awesome I love the sound all the from 🇨🇦

@@Xirsuyxagree fully. I've been a fan for nearly 25 years, I first got into the Manics when I was about nine so I've literally grown up with them.

Can't wait to hear this live ❤
Manic Street Preachers einer der besten Band ever😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥🙏🙏🙏🙏👇👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋
No auto facking tune needed here. Still absolutely great.
I’m always ready to sing along and cry if MSP played songs with what they are now
Best ones!
Sempre a bombar!!!
Love, Manic!
Best song of the two. That guitar 🎸.
Best song they’ve released in a while, excited for the new album 🔥
Pure class
Qué belleza de canción, qué belleza de letra! Para que nunca mueran las utopías, "la revolución es un sueño eterno".
Brilliant ❤🎉
Legends!
Great catchy melancholic/but upbeat number.
That build up near the end... damn! They have done it again!
8/10

TUNE 💥🇬🇧. 3 DAYS OLD AND THIS IS FIRST TIME IVE HEARD TUNE ! 🤬
GBLESS MANICS😊
Yakkida 👏🫡✊️😁
Saw them at Austin City Limits with Suede. What a show.
Sounds like a great lineup
Very good,muy buena
So Beautiful and so Wonderful, for me a Little bit of The Beatles and John Lennon. But that's super good.🥰🥰❤👍👍👍
Ohhh yes
Great tune! Love it! Seeya in April🫡🎸🎸
Brilliant.
Fantastic band, is this song on an album, if so i shall buy.
Yep .. upcoming album number 15 'Critical Thinking' ... release is Jan 31st 🙂🙂
@@Jonny_Red Many thanks, will buy when out, brilliant thankyou.
anthemic
Nice music
I didn't like this when it was first released. But now I'm warming to it.
😉👍
Tune
absolute tune & good to see them back
I would like ear from you a Beatles cover! Would you?
Love this band ,till the end
Wow cracking song.... The very first fill that Sean plays, not the OMD backing track, is that from The Cardigans : My Favourite Game ?
Still not a massive fan of this track, but it does seem to sound a lot better as a live track for some reason. Perhaps benefits from the guitars being louder in the mix vs the synths?
James has the most amazing delivery
What happened to Jools Holland's studio?
I also hate the vibe (or rather lack of) of this tasteless theatre. It reminds me of a heavily relic-ed guitar or something.
Moved out of Television Centre, then to Ashford in Kent and then moved out of there to Alexandra Palace.
@stevem-h3562 😦
like it better live.
Wonder where they're from ...
This show used to be exciting delivering bands and sounds, now it is just an upgraded version of Top of The Pops… such a shame.
Who is the extra guitarist who also played bass on Hiding In Plain Sight?
Wayne Murray , rhythm guitar 🎸
He ads some extra oomph!
Cannot wait for new album
I can.
I really hope this album is more like Postcards From A Young Man and less like the last two albums.
Or maybe even the 2 albums before that one, fingers crossed!
Same here - Postcards is my favorite of their journey's latter half, the former being GAtS, but the band was disappointed with that release in the end and will sadly probably never go back to that style. I'll take what I can get!
I really wish the studio version had this guitar sound. I absolutely love the manics but decline and fall is really poor but it sounds great live
Is that their original drummer?
yes, shaved his head and grew a beard but it's still Sean
@@Gerrcinn i thought it was by the way he plays but he looks so different lol
@@martinsmith-ch7cbAllot of people have aged allot since Covid in 2020.
😂😂😂 no it's a clone
@underneonloneliness2 what a load of 💩 😂
Australia?
Are you referencing the song on their fourth album, Everything Must Go?
@Stoatmaster no
@Stoatmaster yes
@@MultiMeg101 Are you or not? Also if you are, why? And if you aren’t, why are you bringing that up?
Music sounds like a game show intro.
Perhaps Game Show experts should stick to Game Shows. Is a wise person who knows their limitations
The best band of their era… often mislabelled as Brit pop and overlooked for mediocre bands of that ilk.
Anyone noticed the pedalboard on stage? JDB finally controlling his pedals himself. This is new, right?
Yes someone else used to do it but he's been doing this for quite a while now (maybe since Wayne Murray started supporting in around 2007?).

They can’t, when Richie went missing so did that spirit. Downhill since
If you don’t like it, don’t listen them, it is rock, a better mature band now, very creative track

Ah manic street preachers, the lard years.
Boring now
Its impressive to make a custom les paul sound that bad.
Time they called it a day. The edge has gone. Been a fan for many years...seen them 17 times.
What edge? I’ve never considered them an edgy band. Since you’ve seen them 17 times and actually know them, what was I missing?
@@jonathanmarkham1998silly comment - still writing, still brilliant on the live shows
Tit.
Why would you want an artist you're a fan of to stop writing?
@@kp-rv3ui I'd have thought that is pretty obvious. They are putting out crap like this.
Drummers awful
Blasphemy!!!
Sean is not awful, listen to The Holy Bible, you'll eat your words!
@@fizzyfozbuzz874
On holy bible 30 odd years ago he was great
Here it’s complete rubbish.
@@haberjennings475He’s playing the song how it’s meant to be played. Show me where he messed up because I didn’t notice.
In what respect? Yes, he's not the most technical drummer but he plays for the song and serves it well.
I adore the Manics but I think the decline started when that keyboard became a regular part of every song
