OHMY GOD SLOWDIVE
not many songs floor me the way this one does.
I love the atmospheric trippy sound of this band. it's just amazing! transcendental.
Sends shivers down my spine
О, Олежа
Could any name fit these guys better than Slowdive?
Without a doubt in my mind...thier best song....
They are one of the primary bands responsible for the slowcore/shoegaze genre
They sound exactly like the audio! Brilliant!
... delia. as a gorgeous woman, with a pretty name, what do you like about this tune? I am serious, too. I Like a female perspective. Thank you.
Mike Porchia hi! I found this song by accident and I instantly loved it, perhaps because its so different than songs that are currently playing on the radio which I so deeply despised (no offense!). The instrumental, the way the vocalists sing it, the metaphor lyrics are what makes it so unique. Its a great song!
SOOOOOO TRUE, Delia. sooo true.THE "ONES" WHEN YOU DISCOVER WHEN YOU AREN'T LOOKING FOR THEM ARE THE BEST. KIND OF LIKE WHEN YOU ARE MINDING YOUR OWN AND THEN LOVE , LOVE SMACKS YOU IN THE FACE. BAM! WHAT IS NOT TOO(SP) LIKE ABOUT THIS TRACK?!? BEFORE, I WOULD CHECK OUT PAWN SHOPS FOR OBSCURE AND DELICIOUSLY TASTING MUSIC. IN THOSE DARK DAYS I FOUND MANSUN'S - "ATTACK OF THE GREY LANTERN" YUMMY, STILL. ARNOLD'S - "HILLSIDE", AND RIDE- ALL OF THEIR STUFF. NOW IT IS "YOU-TUBE". P.S. NOT YELLING, OR AM I VISCERAL BY NATURE, JUST THE "CAP LOCKS" KEY HAS BECOME LIKE MYSELF, TEMPERAMENTAL. OH THE STRUGGLES. GOOD LUCK TOO YOU. AND THANK YOU. PEACE.
Mike Porchia exactly, the ones I found by accident usually stay longer and I've never get tired of them. I can relate! Also, good luck for you too!
GOD, I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE. GOOD TO KNOW THERE ARE OTHERS. LIFE IS MUSIC. MUSIC IS LIFE. I JUST LISTENED TO SLOWDIVE "SOUVLAKIA", FROM THEIR DAYS OF YORE. IT'S A KEEPER. KEEP IN TOUCH OF ANY NEW FINDS, ETC. PEACE
Slowdive showing us how beautiful reverb could be...holy shit....since 1989...im stuck on this live version. It's actually better than the studio. Kexp along with slowdive created magic and I thank everyone for that. So extremely grateful 🙏what blows my mind is that on this track especially you can hear the band jam. Beyond excellence...to me this song is perfection and timeless. The mix on this where you can listen to each instrument individually is nothing short of brilliant.
I completely agree. It blows my mind every single time I hear it.
Delay, not reverb 😊
@@louisreed4992 doh! And after all these years....
After so many times... You're guys are awesome. So much Love from the Netherlands 🙂
🤯 🌊🌊🌊 🎶🎶🎸 I traveled through space, time and endless oceans to be blown away again and again by this music.
This is just an amazing work of poetry. The soft gentle and yet agonizing angst that intelligent spirits encounter is well captured...very elegant and simple....love is a light and ephemeral and fickle and cruel thing....but it is, for all its ephemeral characteristics, real and magnificent and ultimately sad...nothing lasts forever not even the stars....
Nice that. The song made me think of how something pure like love can decay and become buried when we let life and conflicting feelings get in the way
i would give ANYTHING to hear this song live
I'm just waiting for them to come back to Seattle. Hell, if they make it to Vancouver or Portland, I would travel there to see them. Maybe as far as San Francisco!
You just did if you watched this video..
I'm so madly in love with this song.....
any time i listen to this song it gets stuck in my head for days!
Lyrics
There's a buzzard of gulls
They're drumming in the wind
Only lovers alive
Running in the dark
And I rolled away
Said we never wanted much
Just a rollercoast'
Our love has never known the way
Sugar for the pill
You know it's just the way things are
Cannot buy the sun
This jealousy will break the whole
Cut across the sky
And move a little closer now
Lying in a bed of greed
You know I had the strangest dream
And I rolled away
Said we never wanted much
Just a rollercoast'
Our love has never known the way
Sugar for the pill
You know it's just the way things are
Cannot buy the sun
This jealousy will break the whole
And I rolled away
Said we never wanted much
Just a rollercoast'
Our love has never known the way
Sugar for the pill
You know it's just the way things are
Cannot buy the sun
This jealousy will break the whole.
It’s clearly “blizzard” not “buzzard “ in the first line which makes sense lyrically and metaphorically.
Can’t abide the Sun
you have to wonder if they had made music for the last 20 years just how many more unfathomably amazing songs they would have realeased, but im so greatfull they went back and knocked out this masterpeice
Exactly
@@lilbabytears Members of Slowdive were active in Mojave 3 and Neil Halstead released several solo albums. The Slowdive reunion album is better than any of that stuff but it's not like they were all dark the whole time.
@@jkrycz Neil put out some amazing music....
That is what I thought...their music is just amazing
Rachel, Neil, and Ian had another band in the interim called Mojave 3. It was really good too.
Incredibly powerful and severely underrated band. I never know whether to cry or smile. Lol.
It's a smiling song with crying from the absolute beauty of this tune. Hear those guitars???
Someone on Twitter asked one of those cool poll questions: You're driving from LA to NYC and you get to listen to only one recording artist the entire way. Of course I chose Slowdive. Balm for the soul is just the thing for a long driving trip.
Stunning rendition. They are so good !
This is such a wonderful song!
I LOVE HIS VOICE OH GOD
Fantastic song - live even better
Wonderful Neil!
Why didn´t I meet them before? they are amazing!
that's amazing omg
Sublime!
Wonderful.
Love you slowdive
Brillant!!
Muito linda canção...

Awesome song. Great lyrics. Anna! why :)

Música boa pra ouvir num dia chuvoso e no último volume. Canção de ninar pra adultos ( lullaby song ).

I love this song
Shoegaze...

B-E-L-L-I-S-S-I-M-O
dream pop/shoegaze
Does anyone have dibs on true north? Mines a little crooked but the bend was because the sun was in my eyes.

Согласен с тобой
lately i found peace in this kind of music
What a beautiful song.....their guitars cry in such a unique way that drown us within a celestial supernova. Thank you so much kexp and bless you slowdive!!! This band still is on a whole another level...this is signature sound at its essence.
i know its “ and i rolled away, said we never wanted much” but i always hear, and i roll the weed. Silly marijuana man”
Omg i hate you
Its “Anna rolled away”
"Anna rolled the weed."
Aw fuck man that’s all I’m gonna hear now haha
Lol
Found this band yesterday... they are so great
This Sound, this voice ahhh 😔
I just f**ing love you guys. Since I was a teenager in the early 90's.
Mee toooooo!
Slowdive--re-record your demo tracks (Bleed, Joy, Hide Yer Eyes, etc) for all our sakes!
Sleep, Richard.
I discovered this band 3 years ago, and now I'm into it,,,,,,,,so mellow and relaxing kind of alternative music...
any recommendations?
Sitting on my sofa wishing I was young again... and then Slowdive.
Soy solo yo o esto esta muuuy relajante
En las primeras fases si...
Música para volar 👉🎵🎶☮

@Aneisa Spencer I'm a big fan of mogwai...great band live.
This band make me feel that I'm still human.!!!!!????? It's a philosophic feeling.
Very nice performance by Slowdive. So, I guess they toured the USA and I wasn't paying attention, and I missed them. Have only myself to blame. Kudos to SD for producing such a fantastic album after > 2 decades. I bought it as soon as I found out, and I'm thrilled.
this is gold

Masterpiece
Slowdive é amor
Love Slowdive and this song - but Mr Suggs - WTF if up with Neil's mic being so low? you cant hear his vocal at all. Rachel's vocal is a whisper and it drowns him out.
i think it sounds good, considering the spaced out dreamy vibe they're going for.
i think its intentional. another live performance of this sounds basically the same
Yeah he seems weak singing it live
It's intentional. He wants the vocals to sit more in to the mix.
Agreed about the general laid back dreamscape approach, but even so the guitar is waaay too present and Rachel is for sure too low, you can hear her being brought up into the mix as the song goes on, so that's not great, should be set in soundcheck for a band of Slowdive's level, non?
THIS IS AMAZING LOVE THIS BAND
Very beautiful sounds clear and pure nice reposing voices !
PRECIOSA CANCIÓN!!!
Angelic masterpiece
Saw them last night, amazing! ❤😊
One of if not the most harmonious songs ever the melody is so sweet.
It does have fantastic melody.
Aqui es donde vengo cuando estoy triste
Even Leonardo DiCaprio fell as a drummer for them.
2023 qué sonido tan hermoso, sin duda esta banda esta en las favoritas ❤
fantástico! !!!!
Caiu um cisco aqui no meus olhos
No logro entender, porqué rayos tiene tan pocas vistas éste vídeo, es genial, fantástico, trascendental, auténtico hermoso, brillante, su atmósfera, su totalidad... Siempre que encuentro joyas así, me pregunto, cuántas más habrá por aquí, que aún no he llegado hasta allí. 😣
Nah, no te preocupes slowdive ya por fin se le está dando, el reconocimiento de poco en poco que tanto se mereció.
Pure perfection
Beautiful always
soo much love
Matemáticas y música
