I once listened to the studio version of this song on repeat for four hours straight while writing. However, this live version is damn magical. Just enough tweaks to take it over the top. That moment at 4:44 when percussion and bass come together, again at 7:56;, and that smile at 9:13. That's what being a musician is about.
why underrated. the people that know. Know. They are genius. The underground is always under the radar and so it should be. Sold out the Hollywood Bowl. They did fine...

a band with 710.000 likes is not underrated at all...
What Darren is saying is this band does not get the attention and hype it deserves. The only song I knew from Air was "Kelly Watch the Stars and Sexy Boy" and that was only on MTV 2 when I was in England. I kept hearing the comparisons with Zero 7 and did not know why. I finally saw that this was a complete and extraordinary band. Yes they are very underrated and people should be aware how really good they are.
Darren Martin Underated because is not on the mainstream? hahaha look at the mainstream is pure commercial garbage, this is real music, the one that not everybody knows, that's why is so special.
Kitari you're just a massive hipster, you should want bands you like to get big and achieve real mainstream appeal. Air are one of those bands which are drastically under-appreciated despite defining a genre and really innovating the use of keys and synths in "jazz-like" rhythms and melodies. Plus the songwriting is amazing, they should have more recognition really.
Saw AIR open for Radiohead last night, life changing experience without a doubt. AIR was absolutely mind-blowing. That dude RIPS on the keys. Holy moly.
i have said on many songs,the brits are years behind in music,i can see british song bieng made in few years time,wow we have to catch up,but this is great track,jean michele jarre would be very proud
Getting to see them live, 3 times, are my best memories. Waiting in line for 6 hours, as i had to be first in line to get to the stage and be right there with them. Heck, I even have them both tattooed on my left leg. Glad it was not my right leg, since it got cut off last year. lol
Thank you, again for this upload ~ I really enjoy this different version. I love it just as much as I do the "original". I would love to see them perform live, but this is such a nice video I suppose I can say that I have! I have added it to my playlist and can't tell you how many times I have watched or just listened to it while I worked on the computer! Thanx again, again! lol ; ) ~pamela
One of those moments when you had this album when it first came out and loved it.. Then just by chance dropping on this in 2019..and seeing a glimpse of it in its astonishing beauty... God fucking bless TH-cam 🙏🙏👍
I first saw Air on MTV2 when I got to the UK in '99. I thought they were DJ's like Groove Armada. It took 13 years for me to find out that they are talented musicians with kick ass band!
Amiance, ambiant. On this stage time passes in another dimension. retro delicious, real live from Air, maybe the choice of the weird organ player could be discussed, well it's in the show
this bassline comes from another galaxy
You´re absolutely right, man. So is the whole album.
yep!
It comes from the Moon, surely? :D
underrated musicians, underrated band.... just astonising
You can't breathe without AIR

"writing" huh? Haha
That bassline is still kicking ass in 2021... Awesome
Oui. And in 23.👌
2024 too
And last Friday at SONAR 2024
Looking at my comment from 7 and 5 years ago Is testament that this rendition is timeless ❤️
I'm going to piggy back on yours here to keep track. It will be funny to see this in 5 years. I'll update too.
I’m still here, 8 years on
I love this song! And seeing that they actually "play" the song live is amazing!
i liked how the drummer and the bassist had a little moment at the end :)
Naomi me too
+Clara Looked like a scene from portlandia or something.
+Clara
me too! so friendly and kind!
That bass is out of this world
This song has made for a few magical nights :)
Underrated talent. Bass is amazing.

Bought moon safari back in 97. Love it still and listen to it in my classic French citroen Xm prestige.
Most complete piece of music of recent times
Liquid music. This sound is so lovely. Can't believe I didn't hear of these guys until a month ago. Now I can't imagine music without them.
You have some catching up to do. Welcome
Yeah, no kidding. I'll enjoy every moment of it, too.
This is my all time favorite song!!!
Time to chill, drift off and relax!!
my fav tune of all time and my fav bassline THE BEST LIVE RECORDING ON TH-cam !!
need this in 4K 🥵
And I’m still here 8 years later, likin it just as much
Haha yeah man weekly jam
Wow le final à la batterie, génial !
On est pas loin du morceau parfait. En live , c'est juste... whaaaa !!
Méchant orgasme auditif sur le final .
Best 10 minutes of my life! And most likely the best 10 minutes of your life as well! What a performance!
YES ^_^
I miss the concurrency of the main bass line solo in the end soooo much. That would gave me tears to my eyes. This way I "only" got the shivers.
I wished I could have been there; I know that was a fantastic experience to see them in person.
Dope
still watching after all these years. still inspired.
That last two minutes or so (at 8:43) gives me chills. Superb live rendition.
Mind blowing.
That bass sound is fucking amazing! I never heard anything quite like that ... and this rhodes piano. J'adore air, leur musique c'est très incroyable.
So beautiful...like making love in space! I played this album to my beautiful daughter when I was pregnant 15 years ago :)
Out of this world. JB and Nicolas and the rest are amazing. Love them!
Without one words,so much to say,it may only AIR!!Thank you for existing guys!!
Great sound, gotta love French House.
How does this song not have more views?! Absolutely magical!
You can see all of them have their eyes close, because they feel it in their soul. Music is beautiful.
Any version of this track is a breath of fresh Air! I can listen to a 3hr version of this, long enough for my trip to Vegas
i have said on many songs,the brits are years behind in music,i can see british song bieng made in few years time,wow we have to catch up,but this is great track,jean michele jarre would be very proud
i agree in past,brits were great,but at present we lack something
wrong william
why
I want to like this live version 150,000x.
AIR will stick w you forever, glad you found the sound
Two French geniuses!
I wish I could see them play live...
+Michele De Angelis They're doing live dates this summer. First since 2010 I think.
Thanks for your comment! I hope they come again to Brazil, to São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro...
THIS is music.
great production for a live video, feels more like a legit music video
Bullshit if you're talking about the video editing. It was fucking awful.
You know nothing George Snow.
The best ever imagined use of the bass guitar!
Best version I've ever heard
Super arrangiert mit dem Bass ganz vorn ,creativ von Anfang bis Ende
Fantastic
I can watch this video over and over and over again,,,, it's hypnotic!!
Super song
One of the best performances of any song I've ever seen.
Great french band as always, soon live at Paloma in Nîmes, south of France!
This is unbelievable!!!
The same riff in thousand variations and magnificent ending!
WOW!!!
Getting to see them live, 3 times, are my best memories. Waiting in line for 6 hours, as i had to be first in line to get to the stage and be right there with them. Heck, I even have them both tattooed on my left leg. Glad it was not my right leg, since it got cut off last year. lol
This is the dogs bollocks - absolute banger👏👏👏
That better okay I’m going relax now
ok, im in love with this tune more and more
Bass playing is super cool
have watched/listened to this numerous times, uniquely brilliant.
I don´t understand how those people can seat still and listen to it, I would be jumping and dancing wildly all over the place to this tune!!!!!

Absolute bliss to the senses

Best Live Ever!

I first saw Air on MTV2 when I got to the UK in '99. I thought they were DJ's like Groove Armada. It took 13 years for me to find out that they are talented musicians with kick ass band!
