Revisting this.. I was a Combat Medic in the British Army. Posted to Bosnia in 1998, I used to put this album on and sit in the medical centre and write my letters home. Moon Safari instantly takes me back there. The one bit of peace and quiet I managed to find..thank you...
This still sounds as fresh as it did when i got my CD in 98. Time will move forward but this album will always be timeless. The whole album is a MASTERPIECE and should be listened to from beginning to end in its entirety.
@@markfromct2 you know honestly I think of AI as just another tool to make music and same for for computer.

One of my favorite all-time jams. This band, especially the entire Moon Safari masterpiece, is just legendary to me. They are kind of unknown from my observations, too, and that's a travesty. I am constantly sharing links to other passionate music friends from moon Safari songs, and almost every time I do the reactions are akin to mine upon discovering their work back in 1998, just blown away and thus instantly becoming huge admirers.
@@TheMazdamiatamx5 I just know they're coming to Vancouver later this year. Idk anyone in my age group that listens to these guys so probs gon hit concert solo for 1st time
A young woman sent me this and other songs like Portishead in 2004 on a CD she named "Quiet". My heart broke later but the songs remain :) And the memory.
I hope that you found happiness with someone eventually To enjoy this musical journey with Thank you for sharing your story - we all have our respective journey with it’s ups and downs
@@grahamroycroft1376 Oh thanks for your kind words, I am fine but nearing my sixties now :) and I'm singing a little (jazz) myself, so the music remains :) I hope the best for you as well!
I got kind of a funny story about this song. I had a friend that worked in a CD store in the town I live in and I took this to him to play at the Store. He was a little weird with music like me becuase neither of us like the Radio at all. Well took it in the store and put it on the Stereo system they had down there, About three seconds after I pused play a man walked into the store that me or my buddy that worked there ever seen before. He browsed around the store for a bit and then this song was over. My friend then pulled the disc out and he really liked it. The man that came in asked me and my friend what he just heard and I told him La Femme d' Argent by a group called Air French Band. He then told us he was a Magician and he bought a copy and told us both that song would be perfect for his live performance. He bought a copy and left and I never seen him again and I never got his name.
Best live version Ive heard thus far some of the other live versions missing big parts of the songs. The AH's are missing in parts of this version and some key's are off in different parts of the songs but over all I'd say 90% of this song is complete to the recorded version.
Extraordinary - I assisted to many Air’s shows around the world but only yours respect the originaI sound and feeling. I would honestly prefer to assist to your shows than Air’s. I listened to Moon Safari album at least 5000+ times since it launch and you guys deeply understand the concept. Great work ☺️
Wow, that was incredible! This is one of my favorite songs of all time, btw! ;-) A lot of the sounds were spot on, they sounded just like the original recording. Loved the bass sound, although it sounds different than the original (i think it misses the specific attack of the original). Check out my all-guitar-cover of Femme d'Argent (here on youtube) if you like! :-)
Justin Meldal-Johnson is the bass writer of this marvelous composition ~ very, very important, nothing to be taken lightly in how amazing this song is. BECK's main bassist for almost 20 years ~ one of the most influential players in rock and roll from the late 90's - currently.
No he's not, you are mistaken. He toured with them as a backing member in 1998, but Nicolas Godin has gone into detail about he came up with the baseline for La Femme D'Argent.
This is not Air (the French Band). It's The Preservation Room Orchestra. This is a good performance of the Air classic, but it's nowhere close to the sexy ethereal glide, the gurgling Korg MS-20 backdrop, and the soaring Moog solo exit of the analogue-driven real thing.
Hi Barbara, this is actually a project called "Moon Safari Live" by Le Nouvel Orchestre Électro who have faithfully recreated Moon Safari so that it can be enjoyed live, whilst sounding as close to the original album as possible.

Used to chill out to this after being out all night in Ibiza, instantly takes me back 😊
Me too my friend, late 90's🎶🎼❤️
One of my favorite songs of all time....what a beautiful performance 🥲🎉
like me...I know that is the Song i heard the most in my life..
Still can listen La femme d’argent whole day long… And without any added substances^^ Peace to all!
Cheers!
This bass is just other worldly! Love it so much!
Yeah. Again no impressive runs needed.The tone is just right ( on my headsets, anyway). Sweet.
When we die and go to heaven, If you're received with some kind of music there most be this one, no doubt about it! Hugs from Argentina!
I surely agree.....
agree with Deep Forest's Sweet Lullaby
Take that for granted Argentinian broooo

How beautiful a Song could be?
Air: Yes!
Happy and proud to have been living during these musical times.
Wow, what a great performance!!! Absolutely Nailed it!!!
Such a rarity, to have the bass guitar front and solo...
Great job!
sweet as chill.
Soothing end to a long day!Other worldly music! BRAVO AIR!
One day I will get chance to see this live it’s been my favourite for At least 15 yeard
On tour this autumn in US.

I listen to this song everyday since I've discovered it and never tire of it.
This is amazing!!!
Great performance!
I m in total trip ❤
That bass player tho, perfect timing
good musical trip💚🎵
Absolutely Fabulous!! This is one of my all-time favorite songs from one of my favorite records of all time.
Loved it then, love it still
Wow, that was amazing! Tres magnifique!
Nice, really nice, to see that it can be performed “for real” not just in a computer☺️
AIR plays it all the time live. A simple youtube search could show you that.
Da stimmt alles!
Love
Can’t wait to watch this London
Magnifique! Best version, recorded or live. The dude on the keyboards back left owns it.
This is a cover version. This is not the band AIR.
@@donato77yes I knew that when I made that statement.

Who is this is? It's not AIR is it? Dont see the two anywhere, that being said, it's quite dark :D
The band are called Le Nouvel Orchestre Electro and this is their Moon Safari Live project :)

I didn't know Justin wrote that! Such an amazing player. Seen him live many times playing with Air and Beck.
Would explain my love for Beck & Beck’s earlier basslines!!!!
No he's not, you are mistaken. He toured with them as a backing member in 1998, but Nicolas Godin has gone into detail about he came up with the baseline for La Femme D'Argent.
Without a doubt, the greatest bass line of all time.
Oh yes!!! Cheers from Sweden!!

Everything sounds better with live strings. That would have been a great experience
Something is missing in the lead sound. It does not move me like the original. Is the volume too low? Please advice
The original one in the Moon Safari álbum will be forever THE masterpiece. Time has proven it’s impossible to do better than that 🤷🏻♂️…
This is a cover version. This is not the band AIR.
Please do a show in dallas.
For some reasons, this reminds me of the Australian Doors.
Ahhhhhhhhh……
anyone have details about this performance and where to find the complete set?
give me thr bassline ! merci.

This is not Air (the French Band). It's The Preservation Room Orchestra. This is a good performance of the Air classic, but it's nowhere close to the sexy ethereal glide, the gurgling Korg MS-20 backdrop, and the soaring Moog solo exit of the analogue-driven real thing.

I'm willing to bet that the band didn't stop for Mexican on the way to the gig. Amazing performance, just attempt to hide the damn mac book please!
Hide the Macbook? It's part of the music. They're not some jazz / funk band.
@@foljs5858 The real band AIR don't use any computers live.
@@donato77 That's the real band Air, and has a computer in their live show, so
@@foljs5858 LOL. This is a cover band, dude. Read the comments. Look at the guys, that's not them.
@@donato77 whatever, computers are still part of the music. They're not playing old timey dixieland
How to buy car repair insurance
This is a cover band. They sound great though. Watch another video of Air's and you'll see these folks are not them.
This si a tribute band?
Sounds a lot like Zero 7.
What happened to REAL music? Now I am listening to AI lyrics and computer generated music. I have to go back in time to get REAL MUSIC SAD VERY SAD
