Ellie’s voice is just Monster now.. interesting to watch a video where she discussed how much listening to Kate Bush made her want to take her singing seriously instead of just an add on to her guitar playing.
Recently come to the WA party, and I have to say that in comparing 'Blue Weekend' with most of what came before, she's blossomed from a 'vocalist' to a true 'singer'.
Only discovered them a couple of months ago, thank you nephew. Ellie's voice is mesmerising but the band all just seem so comfortable together.. Great band
She's sooo beautiful and makes singing look so easy. I always fall in love with this band when watching and/or listening to their great music. Really hope they soon will get the recognition they earn.
Damn, Smile really is THAT song huh... i just can't stop imagining how crazy its gonna be when performed in front of a huge crowd. I personally find a lot of old school elements in it, from grunge (Alice in Chains & Soundgarden) to some Faith No More here and there, also Pixies and Massive Attack. But as always that unique Wolf Alice tone ♥️ love it.
There's absolutely no words that can describe the emotion and range behind Ellie's voice during at final chorus in Formidable Cool. Her voice is so powerful around the 13:20 mark, leading into the shriek, followed by seeminglessly ending the phrase in the beautiful enlogated note. What a magnificant section in an already incredible set.
i was watching a video of them in the glastonbury 2016 and watching this one made me realize how ellie's voice is just getting better and better (and so does their songs)
Yeah for sure, and I reckon it’s all down to her confidence. You can see her body language and stage presence she’s got a lot more swagger. She’s not scared to go for those ridiculously high notes / screams.
@@mick4years5monthsand9 Agreed, but she seems so serious on stage. I saw her last night and I don't think I saw her smile once. I wonder if she's having any fun being a star.
IMO this is the best Live Version I've come across after discovering Wolf Alice by lucky happenstance. Since, I've become an addict. Ellie is Powerfully Mesmerizing. Her presence is Sweet Innocence to Bad B and everything in between. I definitely enjoy her lyrics and flow with beats that go from end to end. No cookie cutter BS here. I'm a joyous admirer.
So much subtle influence in these songs from the early 90’s, pixies, sleater Kinney, Belly, throwing muses……🤔 great to see a band respecting influences, but still being original 👍 personally, I think this outfit are fucking class!!! 😇
Yes they are and I am a Gen Xer who grew up with Blondie and every band they have as an influence Sonic Youth,Nirvana,Hole , Smashing Pumpkins,Cocteau Twins Pj Harvey etc etc.
Omg I love this song and wondered how it would sound live & holy moly this is better than the record, her voice is so powerful, blows a lot of these new young singers out of the water. Love Wolf Alice 💖 thank you TH-cam for adding them in the recommended list! 👍
Took me a while but now I know who she reminds me of...Julee Cruise...acclaimed singer of the Twin Peaks songs...but with a much larger range...excellent!!!
I see the signs of a lifetime, you 'til I die And I'm swiftly out, I wish goodbye What if it's not meant for me? Love What if it's not meant for me? Love I'd like to get to know you, I'd like to take you out We'll go to the Hail Mary, and afterwards make out Instead I'm typing you a message that I know I'll never send Rewriting old excuses, delete the kisses at the end When I see you, the whole world reduces to just that room And then I remember and I'm shy, that gossip's eye will look too soon And then I'm trapped, overthinking and yeah, probably self-doubt You tell me to get over it and to take you out But I can't, I'm too scared And there's the night-bus, I have to go And the doors are closing and you were waving And I like you, and I'll never let it show And you won't wait and maybe I won't mind I work better on my own And you were, well, a bit drunk And then I ask myself What if it's not meant for me? Love What if it's not meant for me? Love A few days pass since I last saw you and you have taken over my mind And I'm telling jokes you made that made me laugh, pretending that they're mine I wanna tell the whole world about you, I think that that's a sign I'm losing self control and it's you, it really is, one thousand times I look at your picture and I smile How awful's that? I'm like a teenage girl I might as well write a note in my notebook That you 'rock my world!' You do, you really do You've turned me upside down And that's okay, I wanna help him 'Cause I like having you around I'm a love-trick, a romantic cliche and they really are all true And we catch eyes in a stupid party, I know exactly what to do I'll take your hand, and we will leave, a French exit for me and you You know I'm home, and a bit drunk, some things don't change And I know now Me and you were meant to be in love Me and you were meant to be in love Me and you I see the signs of a lifetime, you 'til I die
These back to back songs really show the bands versatility and how amazingly talented Ellie is. The best band in the last 20 years in my opinion. I cant's remember the last time I loved every single song a band produced. Such variety, such force behind their music.

I adore the heck out of DDTK, it’s actually the first song I recommended to my now fiancée because it reminded me of her and my love for her. Soppy I know🤎
OFS! OutFreakingStanding! Really amazing unleashed vocals! Incredible vocals!!! You remind me very much of a very young Bjork! Also, very nice arrangements. Seeing them in Atlanta on November 20...stoked!
Is he really? Workmanlike certainly, but 'fantastic'? I'm not a drummer, but this seems to be no more than an on beat and unflashy background performance. More than in any other of their songs the band here recede to provide a background wash for the vocals. The bass is no more than a sequence of repeated pitches which change every 4 bars. That's not a criticism - it's great when a band work so well together and the instrumentalists can foreground the vocal performance without grandstanding themselves. I think they are a good band.
during blush she lost the sound in her headphone and then got it again and then at the end she lost it again🤣 but boy did we get a treat in those last few lines..pure😁
Great sound and performances on this. I saw them last night in Burlington VT. They did all of these songs, but it was sad because the sound was so bad you could barely make out what song they were playing.
long time fan, but this upped it a notch for me. I hate to say that I really don't hear or pay attention to lyrics, but I had left youtube's captioning on. Don't Delete is really sweet and her vocals are lovely here. They may never be wildly popular, but they're a legitimately good band. I better give Blue Weekend a few more listens.

Ellie's voice is heaven
Ellie’s voice is just Monster now.. interesting to watch a video where she discussed how much listening to Kate Bush made her want to take her singing seriously instead of just an add on to her guitar playing.
Recently come to the WA party, and I have to say that in comparing 'Blue Weekend' with most of what came before, she's blossomed from a 'vocalist' to a true 'singer'.
@@probitionate I think you have that backwards but we know what you mean, she's gotten better and better and this was beautiful
The vibrato parts in Dont delete the kisses are just incredible
this is just fucking incredible first track ......this is live ffs !!!!!!!.what a voice , simply out of this world . i listen to this on loop daily
Only discovered them a couple of months ago, thank you nephew.
Ellie's voice is mesmerising but the band all just seem so comfortable together.. Great band
She's sooo beautiful and makes singing look so easy.

Smile sounds a lot of Smashing Pumpkins. Gish and Siamese Dream era
Smile has a little bit of Hello Kitty Cat from the Smashing Pumpkins.
Portishead and even the Cranberries now and then, man I love this band !
I saw them do Smile last night. It wasn't a huge crowd, but it turned into sort of a mosh pit down front
Smile is old school Blondie aka hip hop vocal delivery but with Grunge and alternative rock ala Red Hot Chili Peppers, Smashing Pumpkins.
i've been looking for this everywhere , thank you for uploading also ... damn Ellie sounds great during Don't delete the kisses
you’re welcome :)
This performance of Don't delete the kisses, is my absolute favourite!
There's absolutely no words that can describe the emotion and range behind Ellie's voice during at final chorus in Formidable Cool.

Ya man! well said. Just insane. @ 13:20
"Don't Delete the Kisses" The lyrics-the poetry- the feeling, best love song. written so beautifully. completely steals me away. (:
i was watching a video of them in the glastonbury 2016 and watching this one made me realize how ellie's voice is just getting better and better (and so does their songs)

This band should be 10x bigger than it is. They are amazing!
Formidable Cool is such a great song!!
This performance, despite the lack of a crowd, really brings home how great this song is live.
*( "ONE OF MY °FAVORITES" ! ) 🐺 €¥£ ^
They always sound better live in my opinion. Great band.
When the sound is good.
That's possibly because all their recordings are shite, poorly mixed and lacking dynamic range.
IMO this is the best Live Version I've come across after discovering Wolf Alice by lucky happenstance. Since, I've become an addict. Ellie is Powerfully Mesmerizing. Her presence is Sweet Innocence to Bad B and everything in between. I definitely enjoy her lyrics and flow with beats that go from end to end. No cookie cutter BS here. I'm a joyous admirer.
This is the best live version of DDTK that I've found. Killer!!
Easily.
*_Their rendition on the 'Jools Holland Show' is pretty good too ..._*
I hope you have the chance to watch in person. Even better.
Don't know how to explain it- their music scratches an itch I didn't know I had--- They shred!
thank you so much for uploading, this formidable cool performance is already iconic
anytime, thank u for watching!!
Ellie’s voice gets better and better, slight Liz Fraser touches. Nothing wrong with that.
Her and Hannah Reid from London grammar have beautiful voices
Wonderful the power in her voice in the chorus of Don't Delete the kisses
What a band these are! Love the mix of sounds they produce. I also love how Ellie goes from butter-wouldn't-melt-in-her-mouth voice to bone crusher!
The best band in years 🔥 wolf Alice you rock 🤘
So much subtle influence in these songs from the early 90’s, pixies, sleater Kinney, Belly, throwing muses……🤔 great to see a band respecting influences, but still being original 👍 personally, I think this outfit are fucking class!!! 😇
Is this just great or what ? Thank you Wolf Alice and group :)
cliche incoming ...the new blondie!
Yes they are and I am a Gen Xer who grew up with Blondie and every band they have as an influence Sonic Youth,Nirvana,Hole , Smashing Pumpkins,Cocteau Twins Pj Harvey etc etc.
Omg I love this song and wondered how it would sound live & holy moly this is better than the record, her voice is so powerful, blows a lot of these new young singers out of the water. Love Wolf Alice 💖 thank you TH-cam for adding them in the recommended list! 👍
WOW, oh how I've missed your live performances! WELCOME BACK WA!!!!
Finally a great band like the awesome ones from the 90’s👏✌️😘
The drummer is friggin amazing!
she is so gaddam fierce I cannot stop watching this!
Fierce and feral, that's our girl!
Please, dont sell your soul.....Love the Original.
This song ❤ Ellie's voice ❤ wolf alice ❤
Just discovered these guys a day ago!!! Wow, real rock music still exists????
I'm stupidly in love with her
This absolutely kicks major ass!
Ellen Rowsell is one of the greatest singer-songerwriters of these days.
Everything I watch of them, I literally just can't take my eyes off her
she can sing like that AND scream like that ❔ ☯️
Such an amazing live performance all around. 🤘🏾
Took me a while but now I know who she reminds me of...Julee Cruise...acclaimed singer of the Twin Peaks songs...but with a much larger range...excellent!!!
Holly smoke you guys are awesome
I see the signs of a lifetime, you 'til I die
And I'm swiftly out, I wish goodbye
What if it's not meant for me?
Love
What if it's not meant for me?
Love
I'd like to get to know you, I'd like to take you out
We'll go to the Hail Mary, and afterwards make out
Instead I'm typing you a message that I know I'll never send
Rewriting old excuses, delete the kisses at the end
When I see you, the whole world reduces to just that room
And then I remember and I'm shy, that gossip's eye will look too soon
And then I'm trapped, overthinking and yeah, probably self-doubt
You tell me to get over it and to take you out
But I can't, I'm too scared
And there's the night-bus, I have to go
And the doors are closing and you were waving
And I like you, and I'll never let it show
And you won't wait and maybe I won't mind
I work better on my own
And you were, well, a bit drunk
And then I ask myself
What if it's not meant for me?
Love
What if it's not meant for me?
Love
A few days pass since I last saw you and you have taken over my mind
And I'm telling jokes you made that made me laugh, pretending that they're mine
I wanna tell the whole world about you, I think that that's a sign
I'm losing self control and it's you, it really is, one thousand times
I look at your picture and I smile
How awful's that? I'm like a teenage girl
I might as well write a note in my notebook
That you 'rock my world!'
You do, you really do
You've turned me upside down
And that's okay, I wanna help him
'Cause I like having you around
I'm a love-trick, a romantic cliche and they really are all true
And we catch eyes in a stupid party, I know exactly what to do
I'll take your hand, and we will leave, a French exit for me and you
You know I'm home, and a bit drunk, some things don't change
And I know now
Me and you were meant to be in love
Me and you were meant to be in love
Me and you
I see the signs of a lifetime, you 'til I die
Great job…but it’s ‘Irish goodbye’
It’s an expression meaning to leave without saying goodbye.
Thank you for lyrics. 12/26/21
If butter could sing...
Excellent stuff, the last band I got to see before we locked down, very much looking forward to seeing them again.
She is a goddess

Amazing force and passion!! Captivating even to angry thrash metal fans like me...🤣 12:40- 13:30 WOW!!!!!!!!
No negative losers so far: keep it like that! 👍😁

Killer bass
The most beautiful women in rock!
God they're so good 😭😭😭😭😭
Do I hear some Liz Fraser in there?
I adore the heck out of DDTK, it’s actually the first song I recommended to my now fiancée because it reminded me of her and my love for her. Soppy I know🤎
Can we get a new album & tour, please? Thank you.
I think this year or next for a new album from them.
It's great to see they all enjoying so much don't delete the kisses's execution
Wow I've missed them so much! Thank you for uploading this!
no problem!! thank you for watching 😀
Your voice melting me to Hell and heaven at the same time
beautiful
Ellie's solo at 6:13 is wild. I had to rewind it a bunch of times to understand how great it is.
Amazingggg sound on this. can really hear everyone
OFS! OutFreakingStanding! Really amazing unleashed vocals! Incredible vocals!!! You remind me very much of a very young Bjork! Also, very nice arrangements. Seeing them in Atlanta on November 20...stoked!

Is it just me or is Smile similar to Hello kitty Kat by the Pumpkins? Love this band sound awesome!
I Am One. Or maybe Siva. Or both.
She should do a duo with Hannah Reid from London grammar and I can only imagine how good it would be xx
Rosanna Arquette 2.0
But can she sing?
Great sound and performances on this. I saw them last night in Burlington VT. They did all of these songs, but it was sad because the sound was so bad you could barely make out what song they were playing.

This band is amazing. Hoping for a Roskilde gig.
In the 90s would killed it. That said...still killing it.
