This is really one of the BEST versions of this song I've heard ever. The beginning with just is voice is phenominal. Greg Graffin has one of the most perfect voices in the music industry.
Yea man, they basically invented “ medoldollic punk rock” sorry for the spelling, they are legends, no one was singing with harmony back then, just sex pistols shit
@@123Shado321 Lmao, it was awesome. They played a bunch of favorites, a lot from No Control. Great energy. It was the 20th anniversary of Stranger than Fiction so they played the title track, which is one of my favorites. Haven't seen em since, but i'd like to.
Métete en la cabeza de tus amigos, culo se le llama a la suerte usa, mala religión aburren pero es un buen aburrimiento cuando no pasa nada más que el respeto de alguien y muchos que aquí en Sud América le damos un ladrillo en lo que es unn rascacielo...ohhuuyeaaa el mundo se está llendo al carajo y dar palo no es lo tuyo es más la música es una mierda que vale la pena escuchar si los mismos músicos n0 fueran tan estúpidos...tengo 40 y soy de libra...puto Internet mató todo, yo lo único que digo es que mientras yo y vos escribimos boludeces y preguntamos otros no saben cuando les va a caer una bomba arriba...ojala que el planeta sea de las hormigas y se estén cagando de risa de todos nosotros en este momento y siempre. Ahh si me drogo y eso no aporta nada..chupala yo no maté a nadie pero si defraude y odio los perros ladrar a las 4 am.
That intro is perfect. This is still my go to video when I want to hear Generator live, even after 5 years. Even if it's just for the first 90 seconds of the video. Hahaha.
This version gives me the absolute chills. Everything is perfect, Graffin's voice, Bobby's drumming, Hetson's tshirt. I was sad for the loss of Mr Brett at the time but 96-98 was bad religion at their absolute peak!!! They should've been the biggest band on the planet!
Supposedly, Greg was tired of waiting for the band to be ready, so he started singing the song acapella. When the band was ready, they kicked in. Whatever happened... amazing version, somehow even better than the studio version.
Seeing them play this version live was (for me) the equivalent of seeing Jimi Hendrix playing the Star Spangled Banner live at Woodstock. It felt like a once in a lifetime thing. So cool to experience.
Saw them in Orlando the same year. The best concert I have ever attended. Ever. Graffin was this good from beginning to end, and he pretty much sang their entire catalogue.
I saw them on that tour as well. Vancouver 86 st music hall. Green day had released Dookie but hadnt become huge yet. Seaweed from Tacoma opened. When they played generator that night is a memory that will live with me forever. The song always gives me chills..
God, I have a man crush, seriously! I played this intro at least 20 times, and I can't get enough of it.. Greg's amazing, that energy and emotion is simply incredible
This is proof that Greg and the boys are true artists!!! Between their lyrics, the music, and his amazing voice...and NONE of it is produced in a studio by a bunch of machines...they have talent and make music what it should be!!!
I am a born again Christian now. Started listening to them in the mid to late 90's- I loved Bad Religion for at least 10 years. Began traveling the world in 2007- just because I was bored and I wanted to surf. Then I began having spiritual experiences.... began exploring and doing lengthy and very disciplined Buddhist retreats. I was in Nepal, India, the Middle East.... I seeked out all religions, but when I was deeply broken inside I asked to have a spiritual experience with Jesus, and to be born again.... this was the beginning of a deep healing inside my heart, many spiritual experiences, and miracles in life. I loved Bad Religions music- there is so much truth in what they speak about. Including the ugliness of organized religion at times..... but it doesnt mean the spiritual world is not real. I hope this finds whoever reads this doing well.... you are loved deeply by Jesus Christ. The spiritual world is very complex, and full of mystery.
@@matthewcurry5792 yeah I’ve seen that pretty good. Would be excellent if a bad religion album with loads acoustic on like what Rise Against did with there’s
Like a rock, like a planet Like a fucking atom bomb I'll remain unperturbed by the joy and the madness That I encounter everywhere I turn I've seen it all along In books and magazines Like a twitch before dying Like a pornographic sea There's a flower behind the window There's an ugly laughing man Like a hummingbird in silence Like the blood on my door It's the generator Oh yeah, oh yeah, like the blood on my door Wash me clean and I will run until I reach the shore I've known it all along Like the bone under my skin Like actors in a photograph Like paper in the wind There's a hammer by the window There's a knife on the floor Like turbines in darkness Like the blood on my door It's the generator Oh yeah, oh yeah, like the blood on my door Wash me clean and I will run until I reach the shore

I've listened to BR for 30 years, seen them live several times, the melodic part from 1:40 to 2:00 is one of my faves that only this vid can scratch, I wish they'd play it live that way!
Who ever expected equipment failure to produce something so beautiful and powerful? If the voice of truth were ever to ring out pure, loud and clear... it would have been in that moment.
He is one the reasons why i stopped listening to Bad Religion in the 90's. I think he is worst drummer Bad Religon ever had and he for sure is the slowest.

My favorite version of Generator. I love when they start slow! Gonna see them in about a week, so pumped!
Just seen them my 1st time this spring they are amazing and so precise...have a great time
Hope you have a good time!!

Greg's voice is like wine, gets better with age
his voice live is just as good as the albums!
Better Tbh, that's why he's just amazing
@@JJ27498 Where was the concert? I'm from Europe and I hope I'll see them in June in Milan, Italy
better...
I’ve been watching this for over 10 years and it’s the best performance of this song. Never gets old
Hi there, good day to you and it is nice seeing you here.
"There's an ugly laughing man"
Greg giving me a shout out on the song.
But you're so beautiful to me
Isn't it on the Tested version that he's pointing at one of the guys and get's a quick "He's standing right beside me" in?
@@agp11001 indeed, he said /sang that in couple of live shows ....making me burst in laughter :)

Best intro to a song ever. This song does something to me.
Makes Me Think About The World

Ahh si me drogo y eso no aporta nada..chupala yo no maté a nadie pero si defraude y odio los perros ladrar a las 4 am.
Agreed! Loved this song for many years and now after seeing this, even more 🤘
Me too,I always go to this for my fix👍👍❤
Gives me the chills every time.
I come here 1 time a week, to see this video, for more than 2 years.... I love it.
This make me happy and cry at same time.
His voice is.. like a rock, like a planet, like a fucking atombomb..
This is by far the best live version of this masterpiece
Sexiest voice on the planet... mind as well... sigh. 35 years later and he still makes my heart pound with that voice.
Michele Powell :)
И ам страигхт !
Greg is sexy as fuckk. Be still my heart!
yes

It doesn't get more classic than Bad Religion playing "Generator" live.. Time makes it just better.
That intro is perfect. This is still my go to video when I want to hear Generator live, even after 5 years. Even if it's just for the first 90 seconds of the video. Hahaha.

His voice....Completely amazing. Bad Religion hands down best punk band.
I agree 100%. Best. Band. Ever.
I just saw them in San Diego- they are just as rowdy as ever- fucking KILLED IT.
Nofx and descendents say hello ;)
29 anos, a 15 escutando isso. E ainda faz sentindo na minha cabeça.
Só tenho pena das próximas gerações
Relaxa, minha geração não ta 100% perdida, ainda temos salvação

Greg is a genius. Geniuses are often not too patient. 😅🤣 But damn, what a rendition it made for.
Mr. Graffin.......... what a voice. amazing.
Best band ever!
unbiased opinion
Thumbs up if you want Greg for president of the world...
With a quick blink of the eye
@@tomwilson9601 kĺllĺĺmm
Best idea of the 21st century! Am I right, my digital boys and girls?
Amen!
Atheist Lefty... nah
They've been singing for a long time and still awesome. They'll always be one of the best especially live
I will never get tired of that intro, never!
I wish this song had a full version with them playing it in the style of the intro.
Coming back to this all these years later is still truly amazing
Seeing them play this version live was (for me) the equivalent of seeing Jimi Hendrix playing the Star Spangled Banner live at Woodstock. It felt like a once in a lifetime thing. So cool to experience.
Saw them in Orlando the same year. The best concert I have ever attended. Ever. Graffin was this good from beginning to end, and he pretty much sang their entire catalogue.
You would have been there for hours on end, but I get what you mean.
I saw them in 1993. Green Day opened for them. So amazing.
I saw them on that tour as well. Vancouver 86 st music hall. Green day had released Dookie but hadnt become huge yet. Seaweed from Tacoma opened. When they played generator that night is a memory that will live with me forever. The song always gives me chills..
this live version is just a masterpiece
I agree. The slow buildup is so great
Raphael Nether TOTALLY AGREE!!!
Man, i've heard this version live last week in São Paulo. Totaly awesome, i have no description to this.
Absolutely!
Just... Do it
this is REAL punk rock
God, I have a man crush, seriously! I played this intro at least 20 times, and I can't get enough of it.. Greg's amazing, that energy and emotion is simply incredible
still give me goosebumps after still listenin their music for about 6 years now..
love them !
The only band that consistently makes great songs
So glad they still do this rendition live, it was a treat to listen to when they came to Denver this year.
same in Grand Rapids last night, I heard that little riff in the beginning and immediately knew
Zajebiscie....Słucham,Słucham i będę słuchał do końca świata I o jeden dzień dłużej. Zdrowka🍻
Best live version of Generator ever!!!
Tony Soprano looks so fresh here
No... That’s modern social distortion
Hahaqahahaa dude I was going to say exactly the same , Greg had some similarity with James Gandolfini
Better than studio version! Wow 🤟🏼💀 Holy shit 🇧🇷 come to Brasil again 🙏🏼
Ive seen them live three times and one time they sang it like this.
Hello there, good day to you and it is nice seeing you here.
I saw BR twice, about 15 years apart. Their sound and stage presence was excellent both times. As great a live band as they are in studio.
My favorite live version of this song.
Cadê os brasileiros curtindo esse punk rock maravilhoso.
Brazil
Salve irmao, bad é absurdo
I love how the band stops playing and Greg keeps singing it really shows just how great of a singer he really is .
every single musician should learn with Bad Religion what is making music. LIVE.
Hi there, good day to you and it is nice seeing you here.
In 2021, I am taking voice lessons after 40 years of living. The voice teacher asked me to choose a song to learn. I chose this one.
this is the best festival version of generator ever!
This is proof that Greg and the boys are true artists!!! Between their lyrics, the music, and his amazing voice...and NONE of it is produced in a studio by a bunch of machines...they have talent and make music what it should be!!!

3:23 still the best drum fill to date
Those vocals at the beginning are brilliant, wish they would make a acoustic album
Greg Graffin has an acoustic album that is pretty sick!
New map to Hell
@@matthewcurry5792 yeah I’ve seen that pretty good. Would be excellent if a bad religion album with loads acoustic on like what Rise Against did with there’s
Ew. No.
I saw you yesterday here in Barcelona and it's like the good wine, it improves with time
,
Try German punkrock is it a littel bite harder??? if you like.
commenting in hopes someone has a non-glitchy version of this live performance. whether audio or audio & video. thank you!
Like a rock, like a planet
Like a fucking atom bomb
I'll remain unperturbed by the joy and the madness
That I encounter everywhere I turn
I've seen it all along
In books and magazines
Like a twitch before dying
Like a pornographic sea
There's a flower behind the window
There's an ugly laughing man
Like a hummingbird in silence
Like the blood on my door
It's the generator
Oh yeah, oh yeah, like the blood on my door
Wash me clean and I will run until I reach the shore
I've known it all along
Like the bone under my skin
Like actors in a photograph
Like paper in the wind
There's a hammer by the window
There's a knife on the floor
Like turbines in darkness
Like the blood on my door
It's the generator
Oh yeah, oh yeah, like the blood on my door
Wash me clean and I will run until I reach the shore
For some reason I love finding great songs uploaded during the first three years of TH-cam ;)
ha. me tooo
They could do a bluegrass album just to mess with everyone
Hi there, good day to you and it is nice seeing you here.
They just sang this version in NYC. Great stuff.
Greetings from Portugal
We love you!
Absolutely epic; love the intro vocals.
For The Fact I'll Never Hear The Ending To This Clip Makes Me Sad
Agreed!!

Thank you. That was possibly the best 38 minutes and 54 seconds of my life.
No Bad Religion song can make your life complete.
Like a rock,
Like a planet,
Like a fucking atom bomb,
I'll remain unperturbed by the joy and the madness
That I encounter everywhere I turn
I've seen it all before
In book and magazines
Like a twitch before dying
Like a pornographic sea
There's a flower behind the window
There's an ugly laughing man
Like a hummingbird in silence
Like the blood on the door
It's the generator
Oh yeah, oh yeah, like the blood on my door
Wash me clean and I will run
Until I reach the shore
I've known it all along
Like the bone under my skin

Forgot about this for years. Stoked it popped in my head again. I crank that intro every time
F***ing lucky f***ing guys who were that that night!!! This is just the most amazing generator version i've ever seen !!!
This is the greatest version there ever was!!
I had never really heard them until now and I really love his voice... I found them through Rise Against and my best friend who loves them both. :)

One of my all time favorite singers.
The only band in the world that gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. LOVE BAD RELIGION
That drummer is king
+jarullar Yes, he is.
Yes
That would be Bobby
Until you've seen Bill Stevenson play
He is one the reasons why i stopped listening to Bad Religion in the 90's. I think he is worst drummer Bad Religon ever had and he for sure is the slowest.
Nasci na época errada.

Gotta give it to Greg, the dude has pipes.

There it is… awesome !
