Many years ago, I went to an Urban Outfitters and while window shopping extremely overpriced clothes, I heard this hypnotizing sound. I couldnt figure out if it was, a guitar, a synth or a voice sample. Then I heard this sort of suuuuper reverby wet voice almost incomprehensible, jump on the song. I wish I could have afforded a phone with Shazam at that time, but instead I had to swallow my "coolness" and ask one of the workers there if she knew what was the song playing in the backround. She replied "Oh, I think it's My Bloody Valentine" That night I listened to every single record of theirs I could find on the internet. It changed my life. By the way the song I heard that day was "I Only Said"
I remember reading a critic saying about 20 years ago that this song sounds luke "a future that hasn't happened yet". I think that's still true and it is 34 years old this year.
What I love about youtube is the fact.. I feel as an outsider in my shitty little town where absolutely no one has ever heard of MBV or shoegaze . Then i come here and see so many ppl, probably just like me, lost and confused, who think they were born in the wrong place and time.. but here we are together, enjoying and admiring this masterpiece. I love you guys
hey that's so funny you say that. for those of us who were into it at the time, it was really bc we felt that we just weren't being represented by the crappy spandex and big hair bands of the late 80s, so we definitely felt like WE were born in the wrong place and time. There wasn't much music like this around. At all. Creation and 4AD were doing some really incredible stuff and if you look at the longevity of Primal Scream you'll understand why the history of rock matters ; ) stay cool xoxo
Their music transcends time. It's like nothing else. The music in the charts today is completely irrelevant. I saw them in 1991 on the Loveless tour in Newcastle. I was 18. Now I'm 48 and if anything I appreciate the soundscapes even more.
Story goes that NME held a readers' poll at the turn of the century to name best album of the 90s, and they chose MBV Loveless. The editors worried, however, about celebrating a relatively obscure pick and used their executive discretion to name Radiohead's OK Computer instead.
Seeing Bilinda dancing like a child is so immersing, same goes for the guitars playing, this song evokes youth, lust and the teen anguish that comes with it, it definitely sounds out of its time.
When I lived at my parents' house I would normally play anything from the Cocteau Twins to the Voivod, from the Public Image Limited to Enya via the Led Zeppelin and Siouxsie And The Banshees. While going on about her domestic work my mother heard millions of hours of my music but never commented, not even if I would play the Extreme Noise Terror or the Discharge, except on one occasion only: I played My Bloody Valentine and she replied "Whoaa! What Is This Noooooise?"
Had intense ringing in my ears for five days after witnessing MBV in 2008, it was worth it. I heard their gigs were at around 130 decibels, or approaching the levels of a jumbo jet taking off. The Red Cross were there handing out earplugs, only time I've seen that. EDIT: I should have said that it FELT like it was worth it when I was a teenager. Hurting your hearing is NOT cool. I damaged my hearing at another concert to the degree that I had hellish tinnitus for half a year. I'm not encouraging that.
Usually the shows sit at about 100 to 110 decibels until the last half hour or so dubbed "the holocaust" by fans. A wall of noise that hits about 130 to 150 decibels depending on the venue. You absolutely need earplugs.
friends warned me about them being loud. i went with good earplugs. it was like the music went through you. your body had a ghost like materiality - bring earplugs next time!
I remember a morning, 5 years ago, that I skipped a college calculus class with the sole purpose of just resting at a park near downtown and listen to this album (no drugs involved). I was just there, resting below a tree, appreciating nature and the blue sky of that sunny day, through the chaotic beauty of this album. I'm sure there are a lot of more "creative" ways of listening to this album, but I don't regret any second of that moment.
@@sethprops4404 I imagine he probably thinks the ideal way to hear their music is blasting at frightening volumes out of a stereo. Creates sonic pressure and a literal wall of sound you can feel in your body. MBV are good no matter how you listen to them though.
Sean Cox epitome of esoteric.A beautiful wrinkle in time that can't be replicated and should have ended with the world tour. As I now look back the band as a whole was genius Shields genius proved not with last release he no longer possessed creative ability, sticking to same formula of loveless exposing a pitiful weakness and tarnished genius. When adding everything up it damaged them greatly,Once thought of as legendary to not anymore. But I digress. K.S. Is no guitar God, legend, or genius.. creating a technique producing tones/sounds uheard before. He and the band created breathtaking,exciting,moving,life-changing, brill. music of great beauty. A decade or so later he cheapened it made it less than spectacular and left us feeling duped,confused and a sense of loss and grief. Left wondering what the fuck happened.
Johnny Thunders Fuck are you talking about dramatic nerd? Yeah, MBV used the same formula as loveless but that formula is timeless, and the album is arguably better. It was recorded throughout the years between as well so who gives a fuck. Not every artists has to completely reinvent themselves every record.
Lil' ol' American sailor boy me was privileged enough to attend this concert in Kawasaki ,Japan and meet thee group backstage...how very gracious and lovely!
This song makes me wonder how Kevin Shields hears music in his head. This is unlike other music in terms of where the voice and instruments are combined with the unusual production techniques. There was an audio interview I listened to where he described "Soon" as being influenced by house music at the time.
Same them in Sydney.All the crowd got given free earplugs cos we really needed them.I took mine out during the last song /feedback to see how loud it was! My brain nearly exploded.
My ears glued to your 300 series BMW convertible speaker outputs at maximum volume in the parking lot of "Toad Suck Park". A beautiful place NW of Little Rock, Arkansas. I'll bet my life that no other human was listening to this song. Over and over. At that exact time. HDR. Thank You for allowing me to have that experience. And many others. Chameleons.
Listening to sounds such as this make you feel as though it feels timeless. I feel it doesn't matter if you were born in the wrong decade or not, all that will matter in the end is how that sound connects to you on a spiritual level.
This soothes my headache, it's so enchanting. What was it like to those of you lucky enough to have grown up with them and seen them play live? Shoegaze is incredible magic, this feels like being on cloud nine ✨ Also, I feel that this song really needs to be heard LOUD to be able to take full effect 😅 Sounds amazing on a good headset or stereo
I even quitted to any kind of dr*gs after listening to Loveless. The full thing made me realize a lot of things. The most powerful sound I've ever heard.
When I was into H on my last merrygo round, I used to put Only Shallow and this track on as I prepared my fix. As soon as it hit, the music just becomes background sound and you miss out as your brain is flooded with dopamine and you lose interest in music. Becoming sober and hearing this music properly again is a truly beautiful thing.
Just finished reading Kevin's interview on Les Inrockuptibles. Really can't understand how most people, then, couldn't love this disc. It was simply a quantic leap from everything else since, and despite that, a natural evolution. A new breed. Loved it.
Saw them with Dinosaur Jr, Mary Chain and Blur @ Brighton Centre. The floor shook for hours after they left the stage. That was a pretty brilliant night.
It was called the Rollercoaster tour. Saw them at Sheffield Arena. The security didn't have a clue what to do when the crowd threw all the seating out of the way to form a mosh pit. Awesome gig

I love this song. I've been playing it over and over again. I found about this band on another channel that plays vinyl records a few weeks back. Glad I was watching/listening at that time to find out about them. The bass line on the chorus makes this song. It has a bouncy feeling to it. A very timeless song! Thanks "My Bloody Valentine" for a beautiful song! 👍🎸
Belinda? Thank You. I know you had to go through a lot for this. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Listened at Max Volume in a 300 series BMW convertible with my head down as close to the speakers as possible. My friends car. He knew I would love it. At “Toad Suck Park” in the parking lot, NW of Little Rock in Arkansas. Life has moments like that. Very Rare. Very, very rare. Especially as you get older. That was one of them.
Thank you so much for the 4 people who gave a thumbs up to this comment. If you know who I am or not. This was a life altering song. Most of the music I have truly loved, from that time period, still exists. Almost everything since then is a flat affect deathscape of a world. In my mind. Caused by THEM. The small hats. I don’t care about anyone anymore. The people using me as a testing lab rat have ruined any ability I ever possessed to love or emotionally appreciate anything. So, I SAY FUCK THEM and I HOPE THEY DIE IN HORRIBLE PAIN, MOTHER FUCKERS. If I ever get the chance, I will ensure a slow painful “Shogun” death for them.
I get that vibe too, as someone else pointed out Stewart Copeland did the music for spyro and he probably had a influence on kevin. Stewarts stuff under the klark kent name most likely
I bought Loveless when I was 12 and I just didn’t get it... like I knew there was something there so I never got rid of it and then one day 16 years later I go to Japan and it just clicked it was like a moment of enlightenment
I think that a large reason that MBV didn't obtain the success that they deserved, if they wanted it, is because of the airy vocals that were probably more about feeling than lyrical depth. That's what I love about them is that feeling of musical luminosity that they give to the listener. It's almost like shooting heroin in your ear while peaking on acid. Not this song, but "Sometimes" just makes me want to melt through the speakers into their world. And I do
love, love MBV!!! It's totally like, a collective nod to one another, yeah, we all get it, and you all don't! !! what ma NY cast off as mindless noise,, I hear genius, and loud tranquility. ..it somehow induces a relaxation response for me... love it
First MBV listen (Loveless): I thought my CD player had gone f*cked. Took the disc out, checked it, wiped it off, put it back in. Same thing............ Upon my *sixth* listen, while doing the dishes............epiphany. 48:31 of WTF? beauty. Six listens to hear greatness? Now that's new music. And it has only continued to blossom in my psyche, since.
This song and album are absoutely magic. When I first purchased it, I think I listened to it 876 times in a row. It changed me and my taste in music in a second.
Teenage love tale to this album. It's 1991. I am 17 in small town New Zealand. Friends and I have loved the previous MBV album and EPs. I work at a tapes and CDs shop on Friday nights, and when this album comes out, our shop doesn't stock it. So, on my dinner break I walk the few blocks to the other music shop in town and quickly find it on cassette - the cover is red. I hand it over at the counter and the girl working there says, "It's great." "You've heard it?" "Yeah it's great." We phone each other later, and pretty soon we are driving across town at night to leave notes for each other. Teenage love that I'll never forget, and this album I still love just as much. M, I hope you're out there. It was awesome with you. J
I've partied so hard to this song. brings back fond memories. most of which are a blur haha this song is like a wet dream 😁 Loveless is one of those special albums that I remember to play when life is really good and we need the perfect background noise. Ahh
Back to those days when you thought your 'Loveless' vinyl record was slightly warped, but realize that it's Kevin's unique guitar playing that makes that sound.
MBV was the best shoegaze band because they had a lot of variety and didn’t just stick to the “pretty, sad” stuff all the time. This song is such an interesting blend of genres and the emotions it evokes are quite obscure, which is why I think it lives on
Recuerdo que la primera ves que la escuche tenia 14 años en el 2001, Creo que fue en Mtv.. Hoy tengo 32 años en el 2019 y definitivimante sigue estando dentro de las 10 mejores canciones que escuchado en lo que va de mi vida CHULADA 🧡🇲🇽
do you remember hearing MBV for the first time? subscribe for more uproxx.it/mrln2hd
scared as shit of possible ear damage, but at the same time in absolute pleasure, dream-like state. best live band ever
My mind was blown, completely
didnt liked it, but then started loving it
Yesterday
Many years ago, I went to an Urban Outfitters and while window shopping extremely overpriced clothes, I heard this hypnotizing sound. I couldnt figure out if it was, a guitar, a synth or a voice sample. Then I heard this sort of suuuuper reverby wet voice almost incomprehensible, jump on the song.

Will turn 34 next year let’s see!
Sounds really old to me
The future has never happened though?
yeah, it’s otherworldly for sure,
Critics are dicks
One of the only albums where the whole "Oh, You didn't play it loud enough" argument actually matters. The wall of sound this album makes is insane
yes! Phil Spector, eat your heart out
@@dirtmcgirt1038😂
Ok, six years in the future you made someone turn up the volume. You know, just in case.
I feel like 0:52 would make a great album cover. Maybe play with the rgb values a bit

I always keep coming back to you, Loveless. It was always you. All along.
Couldn't have stated it better. I come back to this album all the time and seems to share new secrets with me everytime.
Glider. The long one.

nice. good taste
No one speaks of extreme noise terror anymore so thank you
@ditimely The Cocteau Twins my favourite band since 1989 when I discovered them!
Same went with me.
That happened to me, but with Sonic Youth instead.
This song takes me back to riding the train to highschool, pouring rain outside, my crappy walkman
it takes me back to when i was still a drug addict

Saw them live it was so loud my ears rang for three days afterward. Think they played with Lush and Dinosaur Jr.
I'm surprised you had ears at all after that. ;)
It was worth the ringing in my ears.
I saw them with Lush!!! what? can't hear you.......
Both Dinosaur Jr. and MBV? Your ears must have been in pain.
Making us all jealous. You bastard.
Soon is prob the best MBV tune overall - genius dance fusion, bassline is perfect, vocals etc
Not even close
yeah thats fair. such a great song. its hard to pick the best mbv song cus they’ve never made a bad song
This band saves my life everyday. I swear I could play this for days in a row.

Proud to call myself a Shoegazer.

I love this song. I've been playing it over and over again. I found about this band on another channel that plays vinyl records a few weeks back. Glad I was watching/listening at that time to find out about them.
The bass line on the chorus makes this song. It has a bouncy feeling to it.
A very timeless song!
Thanks "My Bloody Valentine" for a beautiful song! 👍🎸
listen to "come in alone" i think youll love it
Saw them in Sydney, Australia in 1991. Amazing gig 🤪
These chord changes so colourful. Just great.
.
Happy birthday bilinda, beautiful little indie girl who stole my hearing.
MBV puts me in a trance their melodies hypnotize me in a very pleasant way.
her voice is incredible
I'd say the abstract imagery and mood of this video matches the music rather perfectly.
To think, this song and probably Loveless, wouldn't have been made without hip-hop and Public Enemy's inspiration. Direct from Kevin's mouth. Amazing.
Belinda? Thank You. I know you had to go through a lot for this.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Listened at Max Volume in a 300 series BMW convertible with my head down as close to the speakers as possible.
My friends car. He knew I would love it.
At “Toad Suck Park” in the parking lot, NW of Little Rock in Arkansas.
Life has moments like that. Very Rare. Very, very rare. Especially as you get older.
That was one of them.
Thank you so much for the 4 people who gave a thumbs up to this comment. If you know who I am or not. This was a life altering song. Most of the music I have truly loved, from that time period, still exists. Almost everything since then is a flat affect deathscape of a world. In my mind. Caused by THEM. The small hats. I don’t care about anyone anymore. The people using me as a testing lab rat have ruined any ability I ever possessed to love or emotionally appreciate anything. So, I SAY FUCK THEM and I HOPE THEY DIE IN HORRIBLE PAIN, MOTHER FUCKERS. If I ever get the chance, I will ensure a slow painful “Shogun” death for them.
This still gets me all these years later
why do i get a spyro the dragon vibe off of the beat
Hot Ham on a Hoagie---> I definitely hear it!
Dude yes
I've been thinking this for ages. I think it's that jittery snare
Hot Ham on a Hoagie omg now I can only think about the first Crash videogame, specially the first level
Stewart Copeland of The Police wrote the music for Spyro lol
I get that vibe too, as someone else pointed out Stewart Copeland did the music for spyro and he probably had a influence on kevin. Stewarts stuff under the klark kent name most likely
Extreme off-the-curve shoe-gazing, this!
I bought Loveless when I was 12 and I just didn’t get it... like I knew there was something there so I never got rid of it and then one day 16 years later I go to Japan and it just clicked it was like a moment of enlightenment
Might be my favorite song from the album, I absolutely LOVE the looping style, burned into my mind
I’m living for this song for the rest of my life
Thank God I finally discovered this band! Freakin' rocks!
GOD!..THIS SONG DOESN'T GET OLD. :)
got old for me the first 2 seconds
Haunted by memories I never lived
♥
Nostalgia of the unknown
Was a good time to be alive.
BFtheWave me too
man that is art
I think that a large reason that MBV didn't obtain the success that they deserved, if they wanted it, is because of the airy vocals that were probably more about feeling than lyrical depth. That's what I love about them is that feeling of musical luminosity that they give to the listener. It's almost like shooting heroin in your ear while peaking on acid. Not this song, but "Sometimes" just makes me want to melt through the speakers into their world. And I do
love, love MBV!!! It's totally like, a collective nod to one another, yeah, we all get it, and you all don't! !! what ma NY cast off as mindless noise,, I hear genius, and loud tranquility. ..it somehow induces a relaxation response for me... love it
The first time I heard this album was literally perfect. Changed how I thought in the realm of music creation.
I'm quite sure in a thousand years this will still sound fresh.
I miss that time when it was 100% about music. No image to create. No marketing. Just sound
First MBV listen (Loveless): I thought my CD player had gone f*cked. Took the disc out, checked it, wiped it off, put it back in. Same thing............
Upon my *sixth* listen, while doing the dishes............epiphany. 48:31 of WTF? beauty.
Six listens to hear greatness? Now that's new music. And it has only continued to blossom in my psyche, since.
Best band I ever saw live (Boston). That Petrol Emotion was a close second. I want a Hot Tub Time Machine!
when was that?
@@dirtmcgirt1038 1992 Avalon (Landsdowne St, Near Fenway Park)
No one makes music like these guys. I don't know if its even possible to do so without sounding like a copycat. This era of music shines.
Ethereal and sublime
i wish kevin wouldve danced
alex does any such footage even exist, I doubt
Tara O'Reilly maybe if we wish hard enough kevin will answer our wishes
alex a kevin shields shrine is in good order if such magic is to materialise
Tara O'Reilly i already have a kevin shields shrine in my closet
the only shrine to kevin i own lies in my heart. i'll steal church candles and work on a physical one however
Original music? Original sound? Nothing will ever come close to this.
Nothing ever has and nothing ever will.
Damn only discovered this band 5 minutes ago have to agree, feel like I have been missing out big time!!!
@@conorkeane4665 I found them a month ago and I feel the same
@@ejenplitobarces grab a fender jazzmaster is step 2 haaha 😂
check the band 'asalto al parque zoológico', from argentina. the closest to MBV you're gonna hear.
Complex stuff. Love MBV. Since 1990. Tremolo is where it started for me.
Happy 33rd birthday Soon💗
This song and album are absoutely magic. When I first purchased it, I think I listened to it 876 times in a row. It changed me and my taste in music in a second.
Teenage love tale to this album.
It's 1991. I am 17 in small town New Zealand. Friends and I have loved the previous MBV album and EPs. I work at a tapes and CDs shop on Friday nights, and when this album comes out, our shop doesn't stock it.
So, on my dinner break I walk the few blocks to the other music shop in town and quickly find it on cassette - the cover is red. I hand it over at the counter and the girl working there says, "It's great." "You've heard it?" "Yeah it's great."
We phone each other later, and pretty soon we are driving across town at night to leave notes for each other. Teenage love that I'll never forget, and this album I still love just as much.
M, I hope you're out there. It was awesome with you. J
What a fantastic loud band
Not that this is my favorite song by anyone but this song sure is PERFECTION.
I've partied so hard to this song. brings back fond memories. most of which are a blur haha this song is like a wet dream 😁 Loveless is one of those special albums that I remember to play when life is really good and we need the perfect background noise. Ahh
This band were running things between 1988 to 1992: very influential
It's now 2018 and I still love this album. Thank you from Sicily, My Bloody Valentine!
Didn’t expect Bilinda dancing in front of a camera. She usually appears shy and introverted
ahhhhh, bilinda 🖤🖤🖤🖤
Back to those days when you thought your 'Loveless' vinyl record was slightly warped, but realize that it's Kevin's unique guitar playing that makes that sound.
The best use of the tremolo bar with alternative tuning ever.
MBV was the best shoegaze band because they had a lot of variety and didn’t just stick to the “pretty, sad” stuff all the time. This song is such an interesting blend of genres and the emotions it evokes are quite obscure, which is why I think it lives on
They are not shoe gaze
@@williampowell15 funny joke bro😂😂😂 loveless is literally the pinnacle of shoe gaze and one the greatest albums of all time.
Is the Best shoegaze band. They still record albums
This song for some reason reminds me of a weird mix of Stone Roses and Boards of Canada clashing and colliding!
Recuerdo que la primera ves que la escuche tenia 14 años en el 2001, Creo que fue en Mtv.. Hoy tengo 32 años en el 2019 y definitivimante sigue estando dentro de las 10 mejores canciones que escuchado en lo que va de mi vida CHULADA 🧡🇲🇽
