3 years since I last commented but still listening to the Verve on the daily, I've got a weird feeling they might get together again for some gigs in a couple of years Last time i said that they actually did, went on tour, Glastonbury and released a new album. We can dream.
This footage is now 30 years old and I still love the band. The first 3 albums are wonderful, but there is a special place in my heart for early Verve.
It is currently 2021 and I only have 15 albums on my iPhone that I've marked as "Top Albums". 3 of them are from The Verve: The Northern Soul, A Storm in Heaven, and Urban Hymns. So yeah, I think their music is timeless!
Julia H. Yeah they do... how come nobody really rocks long hair anymore? like in the 70s all bands looked great with long hair... young people grow stupid beards these days but look terrible....
I love it when bands as brilliant as The Verve put the town they're from on the map. A town the world never knew existed or if you live in the UK don't give a toss about. They turn their humdrum towns into Meccas. The fans visits being tantamount to a pilgrimage. Same goes for The Cure who put Crawley on the map. It's funny to think amongst the socially housed, inbred, anti-social, feral scallys of Wigan there are The Verve fans from all over the world seeking new or expanded meaning about their self, others, nature or a higher good through their experience leading to a personal transformation just by visiting the local chippie the lads commonly frequented, buying battered sausage, chips and mushy peas no doubt. 😁
I'm from California and I literally made a pilgrimage to Wigan for this exact reason. And yes, I remember visiting a pie shop to get a Poole's pastie where my local friend saw Richard go once, haha. You hit the nail on the head, my friend, it was an incredible experience.
Yeah... I spotted that from the clock above the tiled fireplace & the orange walls... The TV's got a picture of an American flag on it too, hasn't it....
Richard Ashcroft's flat - that he got kicked out of when he owed his landlord thousands in rent! The girl on The Verve EP photo was his ex girlfriend too - who left him when they were recording Northern Soul.
The little kid with the LA Raiders wooly hat/beanie... Remember people wearing the black & white LA Raider jackets back in the early nineties... They're now called the Oakland Raiders
Producer: “right so we’re doing this piece about a band & we’re gonna film them twatting about in Manchester. Where should we take ‘em?” Everyone (in unison): “THE FUCKIN ARNDALE CENTRE!”
@@MrDazw72 It's in good nick for a VHS recording mate, did you clean it up? Don't suppose you've got any from the chart show when they used to featured on that? Saturday mornings 11.00am lol, still remember.
I’ve been searching it for like 10 years. I’m not even sure which show it’s from, it’s possibly the John Peel radio version which just sounds mixed a little differently but it could be an entirely different performance
yet his tongue has been firmly lodged up the gallagher brothers bottoms for 25 years + Fookin great band and greater music, never has a band name fit so n not so well. they were,are,and always will be the real deal. come on dickie u love mancs
Thay were around before and got known first but sayung that richards head got a bit stuck up his own head.. Thats why they fell out.. Ashcroft saying his heroes let him down selling out.. He done the same but its hard not too probably
I hate it when bands try and write off their obvious influences in this case Jim Morison and The Doors. It’s not that the dude is trying to look just like him or anything.. posers the lot
@@DDubya82 Well, that clears that one up then, doesn't it ?.. What town is it in or, close to, please mate ?.. West Lancashire is quite a big area... I mean, I could just Google it, it would be quicker like.... 👍🏻🙏🏻👌🏻😎

Richard Ashcroft was - and still is - a stunningly beautiful man.

saw them in 94 changed my life
The Verve for eeeever !!!! i love this band .... is practically my religion
A New Decade is ahead of us!!
Voyager 1 is the bible :)
@@robh4906 you know what i talking about
Me too and I’m a grown man!
Fucking cracking. 1992 this video was made. I saw Verve supporting Spiritualized at Bristol poly in May of the same year. 6 quid.
the connection there being Ashcroft stole Jason's missus off him around then!
funny, that Spiritualized's pianist - Richard's wife now)
That's where he must've met Kate...

What’s your other 12 Albums?
Man, forth is a very good album as well.
They all look great with long hair
Julia H. Yeah they do... how come nobody really rocks long hair anymore? like in the 70s all bands looked great with long hair... young people grow stupid beards these days but look terrible....
....and they're all bloated and fat too
I miss they long hair and this era
I remember taping this on VHS at the time. What a band!
2:45 "Manchester scene may be over" said it too soon
i love rap rap rapido!!!! and the verve thanks for posting this mate!
They were so good.
Ashcroft talking about Armani suits at 50 years old…..yes hero’s do eventually let you down.
Yes, exactly what he become.....

@@HyltonE Where else did you visit? Did you get up to Ashurst's Beacon (1:49)? That slope Richard runs down is all overgrown now...
Verve one of my favorites ❤
Can't believe I missed this.THANK YOU for this.Be well
How could a band so great break up
Thank you! It's wonderful
No dislikes, everybody loves them

They're sitting in the room that's on the cover of the Verve EP!!

I miss rapido and snub TV and my youth, fucksake
Getting Nick McCabe to talk is a very hard task, seems the same for the rest of the band as well apart from Simon Jones on bass.
Producer: “right so we’re doing this piece about a band & we’re gonna film them twatting about in Manchester. Where should we take ‘em?”
Everyone (in unison): “THE FUCKIN ARNDALE CENTRE!”
I thought that they where being filmed in Wigan town ?.. Are you sure that it's the Arndale Centre ?..
This is filmed in the shopping centre in Skelmersdale deffo not the Arndale
Better than Oasis
Way...
I love the Verve but got to disagree
Of course man !! Goes without saying that, mate...
Yep far more meaning in verves music than anything Noel every wrote..
Im more into the early verve then the early oasis ... they're both different but both gorgeous
Change my life!. Verve First video clip??? Maybe???
Yep, also 1st indie chart #1
Video clip available to watch?
Omg BRAKE LIGHTS live at 4:00!!!!!
Funny hearing that Richard quote at 2:20! I wonder what he’d think of his current solo records.
did he wear an Armani suit tho?
He wears a suit. Yes
Fascinantes...!!!
Nice! If you have any more Verve stuff, please don't hesitate to upload.
Brilliant!
Seen them support smashing pumpkins at Royal Court in Liverpool, good band.
@Robert Doyle fancy seeing your comment on here, what are the chances!
It probably won't come as a suprise to say It's Fitzy, incase you're wandering 😂
I love Ashcroft's voice! i never found him attractive though, but i did have a huge crush on Nick McCabe back in the day 😂
I still have a crush on Nick! He's aging like a fine wine.
ME TOO
The Manchester scene over???? In 1992??? Oh deary, it was just getting started...it was about to fucking explode !
It wasn't really just getting started now, was it ?!
Nice🏴
Mad to think hes 50 next year
Why is that mad, mate ?..

Thank you Darren, it's a such incredible witness, where did you find it? :D
Hi, glad you like it, it's from my own personal VHS recording from when it was originally broadcast on British Tv.
@@MrDazw72 Incredible! Ecstasy for the eyes! I wish I had this Vision to record the broadcasting but I was way too young

Who were the two bands?? Tough one really
Is there a clip of this break lights song version available anywhere?
are they in the Concourse?
How many times did Rich come down in that flat?
3:38 jim Morrison lurking in the background on the left
What is the song playing in the background?
it's called "one way to go".
3:45 That guy going it alone could have been the 5th member?
He does look a bit like Simon Tong actually...
Buen estilo el Ricardo Ashcroft 🍀🥄
Can you help me, please? What is the title of the last song?
Brake lights
Is no one else allowed to talk but Richard
Where can I find that video of “break lights” without the commentary ?
You can't!
I’ve been searching it for like 10 years. I’m not even sure which show it’s from, it’s possibly the John Peel radio version which just sounds mixed a little differently but it could be an entirely different performance
The instruments sound so close to the John Peel session but the vocal take is different - I reckon it's a different version for that vid

Just in case of someone asking who's the French guy at the beginning, it's Antoine De Caune. Very famous 90's host
Fuck that frog and his accent
@@LuisReyes-ql6uf couldn't tell a word he bloody said and i even speak French
Were not
No one really cares...
What's the song @ 4:15?
Brake lights
"Debut"
Antonine can mispronounce a word from his language when speaking it in our language.
First two albums were life changing... Richard making shite albums at 50 though 😐
what song were they playing at 4:14 ??
Sounds like 'Brake light' in northern soul.
Noel Hill great thanks
