I have at the legendary Metro in Chicago in the late 80's standing 10 feet from the stage. Black Metallic was a Guitar Firestorm I thought the place would catch on fire.
I remember seeing them at the Roxy on Sunset Blvd. LA. . . . . they were opening for Slowdive. One of the best shows I've ever seen. . . . there were maybe 200 people in the club.
Whenever I feel like giving up, I put this video on repeat until it breaks the spell. Then I daydream about making myself a nice living building out exquisite bespoke 911's for people to make a living and that helps too...
Did you know that the singer is cousins with bruce dickinson from Iron maiden(a medieval torture device) and that a Catherine wheel is ALSO an old form of torture? Love this song!!!
If there ever was a perfect video for this song,this is it I remember the first time i heard this when i was 15.I had bought the album on my birthday and ran out to the garage to indulge in some mary jane.I played it from the start and soon as heal started,man,i never felt so uplifted by a song in my life.25 yrs later it still has the same effect..too bad the weed doesnt lol
Just started watching TH-cam music videos, but this by far the best thing I've seen yet. High quality visuals, just beautiful, and what an amazing rock anthem. Wore out two CW cassettes driving from Nebraska to L.A. one time, not a bad song on either one. Got to see them in Omaha a about fifteen years ago. Great show! One of the great underrated bands of all time, in my humble opinion.
No one's done it better. Reaching those emotional highs. Amazing. Used to play this loud driving with my young kids. I swear, they're more balanced for it!
@@kiskaanfiska1 Who this band reminds me of most of all is early Roxy Music when they still had an edge to their sound. Catherine Wheel to me sounds like a direct progression off the album "Country Life" if Roxy Music had decided to evolve more into art rock rather than going, sadly, the route of pop music. Still, Roxy's later albums were still great and we might not have had bands like Talk Talk had Roxy Music not laid the groundwork for that style of sophisticated European New Wave. But, yeah, Catherine Wheel is amazing. I actually did a semi-naked interpretive dance in a Burlesque bar covered in finger paint and wearing a demonic mask that I made where I emerged from under a red sheet and ran about the stage streaming the fabric before crawling back under the sheet in fetal position at the end of the song. It sounds ridiculous, but it went over extremely well and I owe it all to this song because I never would have been inspired to do a performance like that had I never heard "Heal". The song literally moved me so much I had to get on a stage and express myself to it even though I've never been a "serious" dancer. I just absolutely think this is one of the most beautiful things that was ever recorded.
And I guess this is how I also related my personal healing with love for nature and animals. By having a broken heart, my shell got also broken and i expanded my love for nature and i also understood its way
An absolutely stunning video and excellent use of this great CW track. Thank you so much! What a beautiful world we have, let's try harder to cherish it
This song is amazing! I used to hear it on a late night radio station show as a teenager and haven't heard it since. All i knew is that it was a released as a b side. So glad i found it! Thanks so much for this awsome video! :)
It's funny because when I look at reviews of Happy Days retrospectively, I'm surprised that many of them hate the shift from shoegaze to the more rock sound, whereas I was reading rock/metal magazines at the time whose reviews were like "wow, these guys have finally found their sound - this is great!!". Sadly for Catherine Wheel, I think they lost old fans and the rock/metal folks found them a bit too indie/arty, I guess. I loved this album though, and Adam & Eve.
Che bel regalo che ci hai fatto! Il mio gruppo preferito senza dubbio ed il video è fantastico... Una delle band più sottovalutate in assoluto. Grazie!
You're definitely a lucky man!!!!! :) I live in Italy so I never saw them! Although I know and love them from their first single and I knew that they were exceptional in live performance!
We all have our opinions and like what we like heal is incredible and Catherine Wheel never got the accolades they deserve. To step it up check out Black Metallic perhaps their anthem. another band that flew under the radar...Dishwalla with J.R. Richards as the front man. Rock on all of you souls. Be well and be safe and treat others with dignity
@TheBestSoundEver visto che sei italiano/a ti posso rispondere nella mia lingua CANZONE FANTASTICA, GRANDI CATHERINE WHEEL e non male l'idea di accostare la forza del brano alla perfezione della natura
I used to have a girlfriend called Catherine Wheel. She didn't bang... but hey, she did a good turn ;-) If you like this enough to passiton, do us a favor and watch one of ours. Chairs. ART AXIS
@JakeJarmel So because something is beautiful necessarily means that something else is not? We are part of this and you are human too. The only ugly thing about humans is their rejection of themselves in the larger picture. I see beauty in humanity. I guess it comes down to vision. The cerebrally blind tend to loath themselves. I feel sorry for you. Aww.

they deserved so much more attention
Arguably one of the greatest rock bands ever. One of my favorite songs on the planet. Big words I know, but this band still means the world to me.
me too...
That lead guitar tone.......goose bumps
@@cybergrief Great shoegaze album
Totally agree. Catherine Wheel were excellent. I blast 'Heal' out most days at top volume on the way to work :-) It helps loads!!
My first Catherine Wheel album. One of many albums that's so good from beginning to end.
Best underrated rock band!
One of the most underrated bands ever in my opinion, and one of the most heart-wrenching emotive songs I've ever heard.
I got to see them live front stage in Barrie, Ontario 20 years ago. They were fucking amazing. I love this band.
chills every time I hear this song....CW is how my soul sounds, I couldn't live without them, who the fuck would want to?
have loved Catherine Wheel since the 90s. But had never heard this AMAZING song before now. Life-changer.
One of the best ballads ever😉
You're so lucky to hear it now for the first time! Amazing song.
Wow amazing! Yeah! Did you know the lead singer now is building Porsches? Yeah... I know.
@@oooooooooooo2332 hope he takes time to give us some new music sometime soon!
Rumors of a reunion are swirling! Hope it happens need more good music...this whole album was amazing
This would be the dream band to see in concert.
I lived that dream. 20 years ago. Barrie Ontario, CA
Rumours are stirring of a reunion!
Arguably even better live.

2020. Love the video. Love Life. Love All Of YOU!
2020. Love the vipeo. Love Life. Love All Of YOU!

Love it ❤
Such pain, such beautiful pain. Every time I've broken from a relationship I've used this song to help...heal.
I'm left in tears. The most beautiful video I have ever seen on youtube, with a piece of music by one of my favourite bands too.
was lucky to see them Chicago 1998- never forget the night- perfect and spine-tingling brilliance
tears of JOY every time i listen to this EPIC CW tune
Did you know that the singer is cousins with bruce dickinson from Iron maiden(a medieval torture device) and that a Catherine wheel is ALSO an old form of torture?
Love this song!!!
Cool!
@@flymeawayy Lol. I don't know about >. And I love CW. But cool info about the cousins.
If there ever was a perfect video for this song,this is it

Another good tune off of Happy Days is Shocking...i love the whole album start to finish so im biased 😉
Listening to this 2020 man Just makes my life better

Probably the most heart wrenching piece of visual audio I have ever witnessed you should feel proud.Beautiful.
I loved them all my life ! Just that simple.
this is indeed healing
Bellissima canzone e meravigliose immagini...grazie
They were one of my favorite bands. So many memories..
No one's done it better. Reaching those emotional highs. Amazing. Used to play this loud driving with my young kids. I swear, they're more balanced for it!
"everyone needs someone to live by" is a reference to eden by talk talk. both great songs
I love Talk Talk. The connection makes sense.
I love cw's 80's references, like: I think of you when you're sleeping/of all the secrets that you're keeping (Romantics- Talking in your sleep)

Tim Friese- Green influenced?
Since both albums were produced by Tim Friese-Green, it’s nice nod to Talk Talk indeed.
And I guess this is how I also related my personal healing with love for nature and animals. By having a broken heart, my shell got also broken and i expanded my love for nature and i also understood its way
Tank you Dave! ;)
It is an honor, a plesure, not a difficult job for me!
The credit is all yours! Your music is magic!
bel video e soprattutto fantastico brano di una band altrettanto fantastica che ormai si è sciolta...
An absolutely stunning video and excellent use of this great CW track. Thank you so much! What a beautiful world we have, let's try harder to cherish it
Majestic footage, capped by a beautiful song. Thank you for this.
Just needed to hear this right now
no hay nada mas bello q lo q es simple lo natural lo espontaneo gracias catherin wheel por tan buena musica
Rips my heart out everytime.
I wish these guys would come back on scene. The pipes on the lead drives me wild. 💋
Totally ❤

glorious! i vividly remember coming back from an early gig singing 'ba ba ba ba balloon'. happy days, indeed :)
Four minutes after 11:11 is a shaming reason to survive when so many
🎉
excellent job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love what's been done here
Che bel regalo che ci hai fatto! Il mio gruppo preferito senza dubbio ed il video è fantastico...
Una delle band più sottovalutate in assoluto.
Grazie!
This isn't the type of video I was expecting at all from a CW song, but I love all the animals. Awesome.
El ser humano es basura, cuando no se da el tiempo para observar. Mirar el mundo alrededor...y saber.
Buen video.
This video always, always brings a tear to my eye...no matter what😔
I LOVE this sooooo MUCH!!!
An epic song deserves an epic video - beautiful job.
Really fantastic video. Well done!
Amazing!
Man whoever made this video... You hit the nail on the head.
One of the best videos i have watched on TH-cam- Great!!!!

Great bio! I have loved this band since the 90s. They are a regular on my playlist at home and in my car.
3:39 onwards reminds me of Talk Talk
Is the same producer
Wonderful Planet- Wonderful Music

Si Marco. Non esiste un video ufficiale. Il mio canale su TH-cam è nato da questa esigenza.
Wait... What the HECK is that crazy black thing/bird/creature at 5:30?
Good job on the video.
This video takes my breath away each and every time I watch. How beautifully this is done music and scenary all together. ♥
This is right up there with BARAKA.
Ciao, quindi il video l'hai fatto tu? non è un video loro?
Every Juan needs some Juan.
Six people haven't healed yet.
dove hai preso questi pezzi di video?
su youtube...
I used to have a girlfriend called Catherine Wheel.
She didn't bang... but hey, she did a good turn ;-)
If you like this enough to passiton, do us a favor and watch one of ours.

or maybe we are driven because of ...
If you need help!
I love you song, yesterday, today, tomorrow ♥♥♥👍
