the girl with the blue hair is how i felt as i watched my girlfriend dance at slowdive's gig at rock city in nottingham in march 1991, she was beautiful like the music ............ 2.5hrs later i was in a coma for 17 weeks after a near fatal motorcycle crash........ she stayed by my side every day playing slowdives music....
That touched me. The husband of a girlfriend of me had a motorcycle accident a few days before. The good news are, he has only an broken arm, not more. Nonetheless, it was intensive for all of us. And hearing slowdive is very emotional for me (the reasons are another reasons, not this), so this message here touched me. What a wonderful happy end for both of you. :)
I totally understand the blue haired girl in the audience. She's young and at that age you feel emotions so violently and urgently that you can't help but cry. I'm 52 and I still cry when I listen to songs, maybe for different reasons to her but that doesn't matter. What does matter is that we're all made the same, and we all have an inner urge to express our feelings and emotions. This music is perfect for exploring ourselves and dive into our own dark sea. So, never be afraid to cry. It's liberating, and it purifies your soul.
I come back to this video so often. So beautiful. Slowdive's drummer, Simon Scott is a good friend of mine, one of the warmest human beings you could ever meet. Stellar band and so glad that they gifted us with, a most welcome return.
Of course, you and I will watch and comment on this epic video, Ian. I've watched this many times and cannot get through it without crying my fvcking eyes out, Brother 🖤 Simon Scott! YESSSS 🙏🏼
I felt exactly like the blue haired girl when I saw them play this song live. Cried throughout the whole show. There's nothing in the world that makes me have feelings quite like Slowdive does. Love this band forever.
Two years ago tonight on Nov 10, 2017, I saw Slowdive in Toronto play this song as an encore to their show. Most amazing musical experience I have ever had. The next morning, I received a call that my dad died. This is his requiem, and I felt him there, listening it with me. Love you dad.
❤❤😢😢...so wird,dein papa immer bei dir sein ..im schönsten und schlimmsten zeitpunkt.......denk dran er ist in deinem herzen Manchmal findet das schiksal den richtigen zeitpunkt ....damit dein papa,in die unendlichkeit gehen kann .....wow was für ein lied,....
Nothing wrong with getting emotional at a concert. For me, that’s the whole point of going - not to pose or be seen. I don’t know this song or the band, but the chord progression is very emotional.
Most of them are probably 15 years old and haven't lived a day of real life. Once they've had a little time to get smacked around with the reality stick they'll maybe grow up a bit and get it. Hopefully, when the s$$t hits their fan, someone will be there to record it and post it on TH-cam so that they can enjoy life on the other side. [TO MAKE IT CLEAR] I'm talking here about the people who are giving her grief, not about her. How on earth anyone could mistake that I don't know but apparently a lot of folks did.
It sort of became the thing to do during Slowdive shows I think. I saw Slowdive in London in 2017 and two young girls next to me were crying during When the Sun Hits. One of them cried all through out the concert.
I'm 47. Music and movies still make me cry all the time. I've had my ass kicked by life as much as anybody, but thankfully didn't let it break my spirit. I hope you recover your inner blue-haired girl before you die.
@@sharinglungs3226 It's okay to hate if you're afraid to feel any other human emotion. We all do it sometimes. But do not mistake her being able to express her vulnerability with being unstable.
To be honest, if there is any band or icon out there that is worth crying over, its slowdive, not because of who they are, but because of how beautiful their music is, its just moving in every way.
verveine m I'm glad we both have the same spiritual views on Slowdive, we need people who have interests in these by-gone gems to become more common because i can count on one hand how many friends i have which actuall know who Slowdive are (1)
Originally Written by James Joyce as a poem, then turned into a song by Syd Barrett in 1969, then covered by Slowdive. quite a journey this tune has been on
If I was in Slowdive, that beautiful person with blue hair crying would be the everything, the justification of all the years of doing it. This power to resonate and move people is pure magic / music. Slowdive you are soundtracking our lives, our losses, our loves and we are all the person with blue hair, in tears, at the end of it all.
Neil shredding like he's 22 again. A beautiful thing to see. I thought he'd finish the rest of his days strumming his acoustic guitar like some street busker. This is where he belongs.
The effect of music is just absolutely insane if you think about it. Just some soundwaves but they make people completely lose control over their emotions. This is such amazing art. It is insane what Slowdive are able to do. One of the little things that make many of us who suffer from this soulless concrete jungle lifestyle we live in 24/7 feel alive. Soundwaves that actually make us feel like humans in this horrible world where humanity went almost completely missing.

When you're so emotionally connected to music like I am this happens often. I have cried at many concerts and even while performing . Some people just don't get it and never will. I feel you blue haired girl.
True, Ive been to Cure concerts and seen people get emotional, at Simon and Garfunkel concerts, raves...whether or not chemically induced when the music hits you ...
Guys, blue haired crying girl is one of my best friends in Belgium and a very beautiful person. She loves Slowdive more than anyone I know. Stop giving her shit because she's under 25. She's one of the smartest and sensitive people I know. Coming across this just now was extremely awkward for me though!
Lol I'm watching this on TH-cam and I still have tears in my eyes. Had a similar moment in a Mogwai show I went to as well. Screw those who are giving her shit.
My 19 year old daughter got me into this band. I’d never heard of them. We’ve seen them twice now. All I’m going to say is what a fantastic live show. Great band great music and when they play this you get goosebumps.
I saw Slowdive in Oslo (Øya) on the 9th of August. It was a stunning performance, and the ending, Golden Hair, was the best ending ever. I felt like the girl with the Blue Hair, inside my 43 years old heart. Some people cried, of joy, during the whole concert. If you`ll get the chance, please go to a Slowdive concert during your lifetime.
First time I saw them live was as a teenager around 1992, and I was in awe. The audience was truly captivated by their performance with eyes glued to the stage.
@@CRUASSANFAN I doubt she knew she was the only one in the audience that's being filmed and going on the thumbnail of a >1 mio. viewed video on youtube.
Ich weis,noch wie ich das erste mal luxuslärm gehört habe .....wow,...wie viel liter tränen ea waren weis ich nicht ....das,ging ganz tief ins,herz ..wow,...❤
Honestly, this is such great performance, it’s a shame to see people bashing and humiliating somebody who is going deep down emotionally with such extraordinary music. I don’t know who you are Blue Angel, one thing for sure, you are MAGNIFICENT.
Can I just say how wholesome it is to read the majority of comments who are in awe and support for the emotions blue-haired girl is expressing here? I love how you all come together to acknowledge how beautiful and normal it is to be moved to tears by beautiful music.
It’s a beautiful thing to see that music can move someone to tears. Isn’t that what it’s all about... music transporting emotion. All power and love to the ‘Blue Haired Girl’. I cried for twenty minutes when I saw Goldfrapp perform ’Tales Of Us’ live in Berlin.
It's so nice to see people who really love music for the sheer beauty of it. There's so much factory written b.s. on the radio these days and so many people who settle for it. Blue haired girl gets it, Slowdive gets it, I get it & it's better to share than any drug. Thank God for bands like Slowdive.
Lived in Seattle in the 90's and a friend of mine let me borrow one of his Slowdive albums telling me they're really talented and a bit underground. I loved the unique sound they produced but I'd never thought they would still be playing to this day. Bravo truly.
@@AshleyPomeroy no, this is fairly recent... Slowdive are still touring, they just released a new single, and they have a new album set to be released later this year! I think the band members are all in their 50s now if I'm correct
I’m 42 and have only recently discovered Slowdive, I love music generally but this is an absolute masterpiece amazing. I’m so glad I played FIFA 19 and liked the song “star roving” on it as it led me to come across this. Can’t believe it’s a Syd Barrett song too, I’m a huge (or at least I thought I was) Pink Floyd fan so the Syd Barrett connection is strong. Blue haired girl is exactly how music can make me feel. Nothing beats listening to this stuff on a nice pair of headphones. My new favourite band. Where have I been for the last 25years? 🤷♂️
I couldnt agree more, i grew up in the grunge age especially smashing punkpins, radiohead later tool, and always doors, pink floyd etc. Why on earth i only notice this band now! Coincidently i choose to see the video cause the still picture was of the blue haired girl and i thought if it could produce this kind of emotion i had to see it, and DAMM im happy i did. Im an audio freak as well so listening through great headphones is just the best!
I saw them in Poland on the same tour. It was amazing. To see them live after sooo many years of being a huge fan. They influenced my childhood, my youth and ultimately my music taste and also my own music productions a lot. Bless them. And the concert was fantastic, a lot of power after 20 years. It was a beautiful evening...
I return to this video from time to time. The world needs more Blue-Haired-Girl people in general. She´s an example! I have the same feelings she has during this song. Pure beauty. Both the girl and the music. When the haters go low, we go high!
4:02 A beautiful moment. Its weird, I`m 44 now, but I remember what that was like. It still happens occasionally, not quite as often as when I was that girls age, but It still happens.
twobyfour That has nothing to do with age. There just is certain amount of people who literally live by, on, and during music. I have my eyes sweatin' on many songs, and goosebumps on so many more. And that is in while alone in my room. Feeling the music at a concert is just a complete another dimension. I can 100% understand the girl. She's amazing.
I'm 49 and I have realized that my heart has closed itself throughout the years. When you're young like that girl, your heart is an open chest. You take everything in and you can have beautiful emotional moments like that. That's the beauty of youth. Then life takes its toll on you and you build that wall around yourself to protect yourself. But I still have the occasional moments when it opens itself for a while. It's not as intense as what she's experiencing but it's nice to know that it can still happen. To be alive and rejoicing in musical ecstasy.
one of the biggest truths someone has expresed. youth is youth and nothing can be compared to this. the experiences , the wisdom and all these importants facts of life even if you get them by aging you always find your self ready to exchange them for some moments like the one the young girl is offering. when you get old you loose all that feeling and you are ashamed to your self to express your feelings. so you are staying alone late at night on weekends hearing the music you like and you find your self crying for the lost youth ,and when you hear some noise like somebody is waking up ( my child) you wipe your tears quickly. it is the tragic of aging to remember the days you did not have any responsibilities and had all the time to love, cry, dance ,drink and taste life. this is why life is unfair. it gives you ALL the bliss quickly and lets you aftewards with the sense of not capable of feeling deeply and with this image of your self's withering.
I've seen them four times this year and I've been the blue haired girl every time during Golden Hair. I've seen a lot of good shit live but this song is the most powerful thing emotionally. The notes they're playing, the build-up and the crescendo just does something special to you, it hits just right and breaks your heart. If you haven't seen them live, go do it and feel the magic. Even if you have to fly to another fucking country, do it. It's worth it. You'll feel reborn walking away from that concert.
So sad that I do not have enough money to fly and also my parents will not allow me to go because we are arab But I look forward to visiting them soon because I am a big fan
hey I'm the crying girl i freaking love the cure too :) only saw them once when I was 15 and that was so special. except for the old dudes in the crowd acting like me and my friends were 'too young to be a real fan of the cure' lol ppl like that need to be stopped
Been there from the beginning and this band just continue to improve with age and they were something exceptional from the very beginning. Most bands do not tend to age well; its the mark of true musicians with a genuine passion and belief in what they are doing. May they continue to produce new fantastic music for years to come!
I think I have watched this video like a hundred times since last week. I just can't stop. It's atmostpheric, dreamy, perfect. I envy the blue haired girl for being there, just a little bit, she's my animal spirit.
I've listened to this for a few years now and that Crescendo build~up is absolutely 🔥🥁🎸🥁🎸🎹🔥🔥🔥 Slowdive express themselves in ways so many orher bands just can't, absolutely J'adore Slowdive💙
I miss going to concerts and fully give myself into the music, dance and cry, let my soul and body be fulfilled with emotions, blue haired girl I completely get u !
It’s 130am and I couldn’t sleep but these beautiful music and of course beautiful people of Slowdive brought me into another level of calmness… Thank you guys! 🙏
i feel the girl with the blue hair. I recently saw slowdive in denver a few weeks ago and while they were performing avayln 1 (third song of the concert) i just started crying. I was drinking that night and maybe that helped a little but I was very happy but sad as welll for some reason. It was just very beautiful to hear them. It was also raining that night as well and that made the concert more memorable. slowdive makes me feel a way that i cant explain.
One can not describe the force of sound that emanates forth from this band live. I missed seeing them growing up and to be able to see them live twice these last few years was something I never thought I would get to experience. ...and yes I cried both times as well.
Lean out your window, golden hair I heard you singing in the midnight air My book is closed, I read no more Watching the fire dance, on the floor I've left my book, I've left my room For I heard you singing through the gloom Singing and singing, a merry air Lean out the window, golden hair...
The other day just came up with a tune played on the wing on my synth, that very moment, only to calm and ease my little daughter's frustration. Not only she definitely forgot everything of that kiddish crying but also she winded up crying all along succumbing to that ecstatic feel we both encountered! When you re into music heart and soul the touch of it it's amazing. That's what music's for!!!
I don’t know how I missed this band-discovered thru KEXP and in several months, their music seems to be assisting me in making someneeded changes-the end of Slomo is spiritual ecstasy-I really hope they know❤️
A real band like this one always moves forward with there sound (: There are no barriers (: They tresend time and they are forever eternal (: Timeless and forever beautiful (: Slowdive (:
This is the first song I listened to, from Slowdive. They've been around for 30 years, what the fk was I doing? Better late than never...Thank you YT, but most of all thank you Slowdive!
Beautiful song! Gives me the chills. We need more blue haired girls like her in the world! Fact! She gets it completely,! Impossible to not fall in love with her...
Exceptional from a wonderful band Cool to see Neil playing like that again - love Mojave and his solo stuff, but this is wonderful Nice crowd and the emotional response is very cool

That touched me.
The husband of a girlfriend of me had a motorcycle accident a few days before.
The good news are, he has only an broken arm, not more.
Nonetheless, it was intensive for all of us.
And hearing slowdive is very emotional for me (the reasons are another reasons, not this), so this message here touched me.

Although tragic due to your accident, that was so beautiful to read and imagine. ❤

I know, right?!
Yahs Soren I really hope they come to Vancouver too. Last time they were here was in 2014 and I missed the show because it was 19+
Whenever I hear this song, I imagine I have blue hair and I'm crying.

Dig deeper into the song!
This is actually a cover, but this version is better.
so people are giving her shit because she had an emotional reaction to music? isn't that the point of listening to music in the first place?

I have never heard this band before, I love how the singer just leaves and gives love. Someone please...give the girl with the blue hair a hug.
God I love Syd Barrett. Beautiful cover. I had chills when I heard them close with this at FYF.
I was looking for this comment. :) Syd Barrett was awesome
This is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard and seeing blue-haired girl smile at the end brought me to tears. So much joy...
My 19 year old daughter got me into this band. I’d never heard of them. We’ve seen them twice now. All I’m going to say is what a fantastic live show. Great band great music and when they play this you get goosebumps.

Te amo
i'm epileptic and when slowdive came to NYC for first time back i had a seizure the next day. totally worth it.
@@xboyertownx hahahahahahahahahahaha
Hope you are okay dude
🖤
In my teenage years there was Slowdive, Lush, Ride, my Bloody Valentine,, Catherine Wheel and Chapterhouse. Great times...
You are forgetting The House Of Love....
Kitchens of Distinction. Curve were incredible also
Luckily, they & their recordings still are.
Yes yes yes
Cocteau Twins
I saw Slowdive in Oslo (Øya) on the 9th of August. It was a stunning performance, and the ending, Golden Hair, was the best ending ever. I felt like the girl with the Blue Hair, inside my 43 years old heart. Some people cried, of joy, during the whole concert.
If you`ll get the chance, please go to a Slowdive concert during your lifetime.
Syd. Did. It. Better
I am 39 now. I wish I can see their live concert one day, that's one of my greatest wish.
I saw them 4 times in the early 90's when I lived in Chicago. They are absolutely incredible live. Those were life altering experiences.
y all old af
First time I saw them live was as a teenager around 1992, and I was in awe. The audience was truly captivated by their performance with eyes glued to the stage.
Blue-haired girl is singlehandedly responsible for keeping this universe from shattering.
she's the girl from Jason Borne
And shattering it!
Motion seconded!
Miguel Acosta who’s Jason?
@@MarioZcr He is Matt Damon.
I cried watching blue haired girl cry. I feel sorry for people who don't get it.
llegue a este video por casualidad wowwwsssssssss cuantas emosiones es digno de admirar esta melodia y la chica plenamente sintio lo que trasmite
too much attention for her I think
@@CRUASSANFAN I doubt she knew she was the only one in the audience that's being filmed and going on the thumbnail of a >1 mio. viewed video on youtube.
She's having a bad trip, acid is nasty shit when it goes wrong.
@@sooperheep some people are just like that man
4:17 - Neil shoegazing as though it was 1991. Glorious.
Ich weis,noch wie ich das erste mal luxuslärm gehört habe .....wow,...wie viel liter tränen ea waren weis ich nicht ....das,ging ganz tief ins,herz ..wow,...❤
Honestly, this is such great performance, it’s a shame to see people bashing and humiliating somebody who is going deep down emotionally with such extraordinary music.
I don’t know who you are Blue Angel, one thing for sure, you are MAGNIFICENT.
Can I just say how wholesome it is to read the majority of comments who are in awe and support for the emotions blue-haired girl is expressing here? I love how you all come together to acknowledge how beautiful and normal it is to be moved to tears by beautiful music.
That's what great music does when it's done well, it brings up emotions you didn't know you had.
It’s a beautiful thing to see that music can move someone to tears. Isn’t that what it’s all about... music transporting emotion. All power and love to the ‘Blue Haired Girl’. I cried for twenty minutes when I saw Goldfrapp perform ’Tales Of Us’ live in Berlin.
I cant put into words how the guitar's fill your soul with heat when you see this live .
It's so nice to see people who really love music for the sheer beauty of it. There's so much factory written b.s. on the radio these days and so many people who settle for it. Blue haired girl gets it, Slowdive gets it, I get it & it's better to share than any drug. Thank God for bands like Slowdive.
This beautiful performance is what the world needs now, more than ever.
This is such a beautiful song. I have followed Slowdive since the 90’s. I completely understand the blue haired girl. I could stand next to her.
Music from Slowdive makes me believe that there's more to life than I can see.
So me.
♥
You catched it
There is
Josué Miguel Rodríguez-Vanegas le vas a al America JAJAJAJAJA
Lived in Seattle in the 90's and a friend of mine let me borrow one of his Slowdive albums telling me they're really talented and a bit underground. I loved the unique sound they produced but I'd never thought they would still be playing to this day. Bravo truly.
Slowdive needs to write a song called “blue haired girl” and dedicate it to her
It's terrifying to think that she's probably in her eighties by now - and all these people are dead and gone.
@@AshleyPomeroy why? this event was celebrated 10 years ago... the song was composed in the sixties but this is a different story
@@AshleyPomeroy lol
"blue haired an' clear"
@@AshleyPomeroy no, this is fairly recent... Slowdive are still touring, they just released a new single, and they have a new album set to be released later this year! I think the band members are all in their 50s now if I'm correct
Syd Barrett is happy in heaven for this spetacular cover
You obviously don’t know Syd’s medical history…he would be disgusted
@@Oh_I_Will oh my 😂😂
I’m 42 and have only recently discovered Slowdive, I love music generally but this is an absolute masterpiece amazing. I’m so glad I played FIFA 19 and liked the song “star roving” on it as it led me to come across this. Can’t believe it’s a Syd Barrett song too, I’m a huge (or at least I thought I was) Pink Floyd fan so the Syd Barrett connection is strong. Blue haired girl is exactly how music can make me feel. Nothing beats listening to this stuff on a nice pair of headphones. My new favourite band. Where have I been for the last 25years? 🤷♂️
I couldnt agree more, i grew up in the grunge age especially smashing punkpins, radiohead later tool, and always doors, pink floyd etc. Why on earth i only notice this band now! Coincidently i choose to see the video cause the still picture was of the blue haired girl and i thought if it could produce this kind of emotion i had to see it, and DAMM im happy i did. Im an audio freak as well so listening through great headphones is just the best!
what a magical version of the syd barrett song, i love this. i feel like i would've cried too had i witnessed this live!
Unbelievably beautiful! Slowdive has a very special spot in the shoe gaze/noise genre.
I saw them in Poland on the same tour. It was amazing. To see them live after sooo many years of being a huge fan. They influenced my childhood, my youth and ultimately my music taste and also my own music productions a lot. Bless them. And the concert was fantastic, a lot of power after 20 years. It was a beautiful evening...
I return to this video from time to time. The world needs more Blue-Haired-Girl people in general. She´s an example! I have the same feelings she has during this song. Pure beauty. Both the girl and the music. When the haters go low, we go high!
And tears stream down my face. Beautiful song.
4:02 A beautiful moment. Its weird, I`m 44 now, but I remember what that was like. It still happens occasionally, not quite as often as when I was that girls age, but It still happens.
twobyfour That has nothing to do with age. There just is certain amount of people who literally live by, on, and during music. I have my eyes sweatin' on many songs, and goosebumps on so many more. And that is in while alone in my room. Feeling the music at a concert is just a complete another dimension. I can 100% understand the girl. She's amazing.
There I was all jaded and doubting the young lady's sincerity and now I'm having a small sob.
Yep that's a strong emotional moment. I'm almost 40, got children & happily married, and it happens more often :-D
I'm 49 and I have realized that my heart has closed itself throughout the years. When you're young like that girl, your heart is an open chest. You take everything in and you can have beautiful emotional moments like that. That's the beauty of youth. Then life takes its toll on you and you build that wall around yourself to protect yourself. But I still have the occasional moments when it opens itself for a while. It's not as intense as what she's experiencing but it's nice to know that it can still happen. To be alive and rejoicing in musical ecstasy.
one of the biggest truths someone has expresed.
youth is youth and nothing can be compared to this.
the experiences , the wisdom and all these importants facts of life even if you get them by aging you always find your self ready to exchange them for some moments like the one the young girl is offering.
when you get old you loose all that feeling and you are ashamed to your self to express your feelings.
so you are staying alone late at night on weekends hearing the music you like and you find your self crying for the lost youth ,and when you hear some noise like somebody is waking up ( my child) you wipe your tears quickly.
it is the tragic of aging to remember the days you did not have any responsibilities and had all the time to love, cry, dance ,drink and taste life.
this is why life is unfair.
it gives you ALL the bliss quickly and lets you aftewards with the sense of not capable of feeling deeply and with this image of your self's withering.
I've seen them four times this year and I've been the blue haired girl every time during Golden Hair. I've seen a lot of good shit live but this song is the most powerful thing emotionally. The notes they're playing, the build-up and the crescendo just does something special to you, it hits just right and breaks your heart. If you haven't seen them live, go do it and feel the magic. Even if you have to fly to another fucking country, do it. It's worth it. You'll feel reborn walking away from that concert.
So sad that I do not have enough money to fly and also my parents will not allow me to go because we are arab
But I look forward to visiting them soon because I am a big fan
Blue haired girl is just a true fan, her obvious love for this made me tear up! I cry every time I see The Cure.
hey I'm the crying girl i freaking love the cure too :) only saw them once when I was 15 and that was so special. except for the old dudes in the crowd acting like me and my friends were 'too young to be a real fan of the cure' lol ppl like that need to be stopped
Been there from the beginning and this band just continue to improve with age and they were something exceptional from the very beginning. Most bands do not tend to age well; its the mark of true musicians with a genuine passion and belief in what they are doing.
May they continue to produce new fantastic music for years to come!
Slowdive is the perfect group for a Syd Barret cover that is a James Joyce poem. And the girl with the Blue Hairs is beautiful.
Never heard of this band before. Accidentally stumbled upon this song as it`s a cover of an old Syd Barrett song. I`m loving this!
Enjoy the ride
not only is this an amazing cover, but the sound quality is brilliant! Can't imagine how much better it would be to be there live.
I think I have watched this video like a hundred times since last week. I just can't stop.
It's atmostpheric, dreamy, perfect. I envy the blue haired girl for being there, just a little bit, she's my animal spirit.
Slowdive is coming to Chile and I'm finally gonna see them live. Hope they play this song
You r soo lucky 😔😔😔😔
Did u go ?
I've listened to this for a few years now and that Crescendo build~up is absolutely 🔥🥁🎸🥁🎸🎹🔥🔥🔥
Slowdive express themselves in ways so many orher bands just can't, absolutely J'adore Slowdive💙
I miss going to concerts and fully give myself into the music, dance and cry, let my soul and body be fulfilled with emotions, blue haired girl I completely get u !
… this band is absolutely miraculous … their music always manages to rip right through you …
Absolutely. Flood the place with sound that evokes feelings
It’s 130am and I couldn’t sleep but these beautiful music and of course beautiful people of Slowdive brought me into another level of calmness… Thank you guys! 🙏
Probably watched this like 1000plus times and still fecking love it in 2021
One of the most remarkable performances of 2010’s. I love this footage
what a joy to see a group of talented musicians just plying away at their craft quietly, with zero bullshit. Awesome stuff!
i feel the girl with the blue hair. I recently saw slowdive in denver a few weeks ago and while they were performing avayln 1 (third song of the concert) i just started crying. I was drinking that night and maybe that helped a little but I was very happy but sad as welll for some reason. It was just very beautiful to hear them. It was also raining that night as well and that made the concert more memorable. slowdive makes me feel a way that i cant explain.
I love people who lose themselves in beautiful music.
Much respect for the blue haired girl.You have heart.
Absolutely beautiful as a fan of syd barrett first and slow dive after this is just perfect. Chills and tears
One can not describe the force of sound that emanates forth from this band live. I missed seeing them growing up and to be able to see them live twice these last few years was something I never thought I would get to experience. ...and yes I cried both times as well.
Poetry!!! Nothing else! Higher melodies! A very Great band!!!
Lean out your window, golden hair
I heard you singing in the midnight air
My book is closed, I read no more
Watching the fire dance, on the floor
I've left my book, I've left my room
For I heard you singing through the gloom
Singing and singing, a merry air
Lean out the window, golden hair...
I just can't stop crying now too,,thank you guys for your great reunion!
thanks god!
listening to this is like a spiritual experience
The other day just came up with a tune played on the wing on my synth, that very moment, only to calm and ease my little daughter's frustration. Not only she definitely forgot everything of that kiddish crying but also she winded up crying all along succumbing to that ecstatic feel we both encountered! When you re into music heart and soul the touch of it it's amazing. That's what music's for!!!
This video will never get old... ever.
Can't stop listening to this. What beauty.......it's incredible.......touches me into my deepest depths....
About once a month , YT decides I need to watch this & I do. Brilliant.
Saw this band in 1992 and they amazing then..! Timeless band
The beautiful blue hair starry-eyed soul and this tune could in fact, be the cure for all the ugliness in this world right now.💙
Truth!
You nailed Chris
She’s just tripping out on DMT.
Wow. I like that
Yes, the blue-haired girl is a Heavenly Angel...
That's something special. I drop tear from my eye. This is so much joy to listening Slowdive, especially this track. Many thanks for you guys!
I'm sure Syd Barrett would have appreciated this rendition of his song - I did.
shine on you crazy diamond
do you mean it sounds like syd, or have they re-interpreted or used one of his tunes
@@crabbtrixexp - this song was written by Syd
@@alexandermukai7724 thanks
@@alexandermukai7724 only the music was composed by Syd, this a beautiful poem named "Lean out of the window" written by James Joyce.
the face of the blue-haired girl says it all...
The video is so incredibly, emotional, powerful. Mesmerizing. The crying blue haired girl is like an incarnation of the moment.
I have watched this more than 20 times now. It’s breathtaking.
At least twice a week
I’m back. Again.
You should hear the original by Syd Barrett. Amazing
Wow i love you slowdive... You make me feel in another dimension
We love you, Rachel! We love you SLOWDIVE!
Everyone needs a good cry now and again. This is the perfect sound track for it.
Thank you Robin Guthrie for everything you did. This jewel wouldn't have glimmered without your creative mind.
+tom tuerlinckx A lot of brilliant minds helped in the delevopment of music. But still, it's nice to honour such great musicians like Robin Guthrie.
+tom tuerlinckx
Really.
I don’t know how I missed this band-discovered thru KEXP and in several months, their music seems to be assisting me in making someneeded changes-the end of Slomo is spiritual ecstasy-I really hope they know❤️
Je ne pensais pas un jour trouver un groupe qui puisse égaler en émotion Cocteau Twins, c’est fait avec ce groupe la magie a opéré… SUBLIME 🖤
Si tu aimes Cocteau Twins et Slowdive, je pense que tu devrais essayer d'écouter Beach House ! Si ce n'est pas déjà fait
A real band like this one always moves forward with there sound (: There are no barriers (: They tresend time and they are forever eternal (: Timeless and forever beautiful (: Slowdive (:
This is the first song I listened to, from Slowdive. They've been around for 30 years, what the fk was I doing? Better late than never...Thank you YT, but most of all thank you Slowdive!
This moves me every time I watch this,amazing live track.
Beautiful song! Gives me the chills. We need more blue haired girls like her in the world! Fact! She gets it completely,! Impossible to not fall in love with her...
How have I completely missed this band 😩what an absolute belter of a performance 👌
The magic is unleashed when the guitar kicks it in...
3:42
Damn, I love that sound.
The drummer is wearing a badass Slint t-shirt.
I just got through listening to Washer.
Is this what pinback was referencing at the end of AFK?
@@littlepigboy Yes.
This is the reason for life on earth.
Got to have my blue haired girl moment last weekend seeing Slowdive in DC. Been waiting to see them live since I was a teenager 20 years ago.
Exceptional from a wonderful band
Cool to see Neil playing like that again - love Mojave and his solo stuff, but this is wonderful
Nice crowd and the emotional response is very cool
