Playing this song in my car in 1986, aged 22, I felt I totally owned my life, my world, my girls, everything. I am not sure what would that mean today, but the 80s were pure joy and energy
Amen brother! I'll never be able to experience that myself, considering I'm from Gen Z, but it brightens my day knowing that there are people out there who got to experience this truly wonderful time period!
What an amazing performance and energy. Ian is 25 here and looks out of it. His voice sounds fucked - still rocking today. The Cult are one of the greats from the 80s
I honestly do not know how I missed The Cult in the 80's and 90's. I love to this day Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, and so many more band yet I just recently got into The Cult. They are amazing.
I was 9yo when my parents took me to see The Cult at the Cow Palace in San Francisco in 1987. I remember every moment from panties flying, girls (and guys) running on stage naked, the huge f’kn mosh pit, and Ian trashing the drum set! My ears are still ringing 35 years later…
Such a kick ass guitar song. They put the bass player on a 6 string rhythm to back up Billy and another guy played bass. This is a rare and decent quality audio and video of the awesome band The Cult!
He had the most beautiful head of hair I've ever seen. His whole persona was electric! There are some things about him that remind me very much of Jim Morrison.
I heard this song when I was a bouncer in clubs in NYC in the 1980's. I loved it. But over time, I couldn't remember the title or who it was by. I always kept watch for 35+ years for the name of this song and who performed it..until tonight! I even heard it as soundtrack during the last Super Bowl right before a commercial break. I'm glad it finally found me!
@@darrenfartman1866 I just said, I love The Cult on the albums just not live. Same for Fleetwood Mac or Mötley Crüe. Ratt would be a good comparison, how a live band should sound like. At least in the early to mid-80s. Or Metallica concert 1989 in Seattle or 1986 in Toronto. As for today, I would say that from all rock or metal bands out there Metallica and Mark Knopfler do have the best live sound.
Holy fuck..I saw Cult on this tour! At a moments notice... will never regret dropping everything to go see them at Arogon Ballroom in Chicago. One of my favorite shows I saw live.
Oh the moshpit on that performance!. Get in that time machine and get in there!. If only it were possible...just bouncing around to one of the best guitar riffs of all time...lose yourself in the moment. Great band..
Someone that sounds like they might actually know what Gibson is he playing here? I'm guessing an L4 or L5 Jumbo hollow body for sure. Almost looks like a Tal Farlow, but this has P90's. Any thought?
@@googo151 I'm pretty sure its an L5 CES with P90 "soapbar" pickups in it? L4's had a cut-bottom heel for players wanting to the upper frets with greater access.
I am jealous of the audience members who got to see them live while they were in their prime. What an experience it must have been. My nr 1 favorite band and so freakin' underrated.
@@shawntyson4339 You can always tell when Ian is drunk because he sounds more like Morrison than ever. I bet that's how he became the singer of the Doors. They saw and heard Ian drunk and said, "Yeah, he's the guy.".
@@danielkelley7548I saw a documentary where one of the Roadies was responsible for the band's drinks at every performance. Duffy was i think rum and coke, and Ian drank 4 bottles of wine during each show. Geez. I would not be standing.
Just love these guys from the beginning to now. I see bassist Jamie Stewart has switched to rhythm guitar for this song. the 'bass' player's face has been blurred out........wonder why *** Update just found this on Wiki "...Working with new producer Rick Rubin, the group issued Electric in April 1987.

F..king Hell to the Yeah! One hundred percent agree!

Fortunate bugger. Good on ya!
I was there! They warmed up for Billy Idol and everyone was throwing their shoes at him!
Lol - I was there as well!! I remember Ian dragging the drum set out and throwing pieces of it into the crowd….good old days when tickets were $20-$25
The most underrated band of the 80s
100%
Indeed. They had sound and vision. The passion is palpable.
LOVE is a timeless masterpiece, should make into 100 best albums of all time list.
Great band!
yep
The Cult is one of those rare bands who have a very unique sound, you know it's them and only them when you hear it.
Such a kick ass guitar song. They put the bass player on a 6 string rhythm to back up Billy and another guy played bass. This is a rare and decent quality audio and video of the awesome band The Cult!
the entire Brixton show kicks. Always been partial to Jamie Stewart! So fit!
I thisnk it was Kid Chaos on bass for the Electric tour
You do know rhythm and lead guitars are physically the same thing?
Before playing bass in The Cult Jamie Stewart played guitar in the band Ritual.
How do you know that?
He had the most beautiful head of hair I've ever seen. His whole persona was electric! There are some things about him that remind me very much of Jim Morrison.

Tell us some stories of what you saw back in the day. Inquiring minds wanna know!
Glad you recovered a (really good song) past memory man. Isn't time a bee atch?😅
Isn't anyone gonna talk about how beautiful Ian's hair looks??😍 Absolutely stunning.
Aaah. Noooo....
Yessssss
I love the length but it’s so dark on him. A dark brown is much better imo. Like Jim Morrison’s colour.
Yeah it looks cool👍
Live performances don’t get much better than this. Kick-ass band.
I would respectfully disagree and assert they do get much better than this.
@@hamupinhere what are some examples
@@madpriest7822You still waiting ?? This is deffo kick arse ! ✌️✌️🇬🇧🇬🇧
To say the 80’s shaped the type of men I find attractive is an understatement lol . Loved this band, his voice, look and the music.
Great performance. This is what a live band should sound like kids
Ian is drunk or high off his ass. The poor guys in the band are the only great players in this disaster of a video.
overdriven and of key/text? I really do like The Cult but they suck as a live band
@@DrummerGrrrl That's what makes it so good man
@@TheKartoffel101 You rather listen to miley cyrus bro?

This song is meant to be played WIDE OPEN CRANK IT UP ALL THE WAY!!!
Holy fuck..I saw Cult on this tour!
At a moments notice... will never regret dropping everything to go see them at Arogon Ballroom in Chicago.
One of my favorite shows I saw live.
❤
Never gets old. Sooo good. It makes a 52-year old man dance.
And a 59 years young woman too! Classic ❤ loving it for 30 years now!
This 51yo too
A 61 years old too
29 here but have liked this song since I was 7!
ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING QUALITY CLASSIC LIVE!!!
My favorite song to go cruising with my stereo as loud as it can go.😎
I was at this show - my first London gig ever and it blew my mind!!!
You are one lucky man 👍 I wish I was a live back then but my dad shows me these bands and envy your years of live music.
Yep me to
Oh the moshpit on that performance!. Get in that time machine and get in there!. If only it were possible...just bouncing around to one of the best guitar riffs of all time...lose yourself in the moment. Great band..
I'm so happy I was born in the 80's Thanks 4 THIS TIME THANKS 4 THIS MUSIC ....Love always..... The Cult
These guys were rockin’ 90s tone way before grunge!
Great Band!!
LOVE brilliant GUITARRIST BILLY DUFFY IS THE CULT❤️🌹💥
Best song ever.. masterpiece ❤
awesome ❤
Love 80s rock time
The best rock song ever written
Obviously one of the best songs in the 80's!
one of my top 2 of all time !
the cult were brilliant
Omygad the vibe is out of this world! no cap everything has been dialed up in rock mode.
First girl I ever had “fun time” with was a huge Cult fan. They will always be a special band to me!😎
Was lucky enough to see them open for. Billy Idol back the day in Toronto and again 10 yrs ago in Vegas and it still sounds as good as it gets
Wow, not many videos out there of Jamie on Rhythm Guitar. The greatest bassist they had ever in my opinion
Someone that sounds like they might actually know what Gibson is he playing here? I'm guessing an L4 or L5 Jumbo hollow body for sure. Almost looks like a Tal Farlow, but this has P90's. Any thought?
@@googo151 I'm pretty sure its an L5 CES with P90 "soapbar" pickups in it? L4's had a cut-bottom heel for players wanting to the upper frets with greater access.
This song...wow.
One of My favorite songs ever! Uffffff🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
this is pure BLISS!!
Just perfect,, I still love their cool music👍🥰
Show without stupid phones everywhere,, we need this back😜😉🌟😎
I sing that song the same exact way after 1/2 a fifth . I love it.
This is the best live Cult I've seen and I've been a fan since the late 80s. And Ian half topless.. 😮🥳😃 Thanks!!
You are most welcome 😀
Was there, rock rolling, my entrance was being sick on the stairs, luckily enuff I managed to stay for the evening
Great Track , Still Today ...2024
Non ci sono commenti da fare. I capolavori Si ascoltano in religioso assordante silenzio...
Frigging Brilliant.
I am jealous of the audience members who got to see them live while they were in their prime. What an experience it must have been. My nr 1 favorite band and so freakin' underrated.
Alguém brazuca fanzasso dessa banda louca assistindo em 2020 a essa pérola !??

Totally gorgeous! And a gorgeous man that can dance? O.M.G.
Seen them at the Royal Court Theater UK that Summer when I was stationed there.
Phucking awesome
PURE MAGIC .... Godspeed the Cult ... kudos friends
Ahh, i was at this gig, great night !!!
I wish i could of seen this band, I was not into them until the late 90"s.
I've seen a few clips of Ian in which he doesn't sound....... I think he is wasted here. It's not his best. But the band is on fire!
Real fucking wasted,he was typically the more reserved of the two.
@@shawntyson4339 You can always tell when Ian is drunk because he sounds more like Morrison than ever. I bet that's how he became the singer of the Doors. They saw and heard Ian drunk and said, "Yeah, he's the guy.".
I read somewhere that he often had problems with his voice.
Fuckered up for sure.

"THE FIRE IN YOUR EYES!"
It's a good one forsure 👌
Yes,a🍀kiss my life...❤❤❤
What an awesome backbeat in this numbah!
80s 90s classic blow your balls clean off with raw energy banging tunes like this..
It's only rockrol, bora Like!!!🎤🎛🎧📻🎵🎼🎶🎙🎸🔊🔉
Timeless
I was there. 🙂
Really?
Great !!
Saw ‘em during this tour in Detroit. Guns & Roses were the opening band!
🤩🤩🤩
Quality band 👌🏻
Just love these guys from the beginning to now. I see bassist Jamie Stewart has switched to rhythm guitar for this song. the 'bass' player's face has been blurred out........wonder why
*** Update just found this on Wiki "...Working with new producer Rick Rubin, the group issued Electric in April 1987. For the album's tour, Stephen "Kid Chaos" Harris from Zodiac Mindwarp and the Love Reaction joined on bass and Stewart switched to guitar"
Ian channelling the full Morrison here. Duffy all over it like a judo suit, awesome player.
The best line up IMHO, Jamie at the bass and Lez at the drums. KICK.AZZZ
Ian lov U!
