I'ma dude and dont know why this song gets me teary eyed right from the get go. One of my all time favorite songs from one fo my all time favorite bands. I got to see them perform a bunch of times. Loved every. The guitar on this is awesome.
Luis: another great song ruined by the audience. Jaykee the Wolf: yep. they should shut the fuck up and resort to listen. no one pays to hear the yelp or drunk girl having an orgasm oohs or owwws.. Luis: true.
Jaykee the Wolf: luis?? Luis: I do sound very good. Journey, Cult, Whitesnake, Led Zeppelin, Jose Alfredo Jimenez. Unfortunately, I yet to find my own voice. Jaykee the Wolf: true.
Acapella/acoustic. after surgery. OMG he sounds AMAZING. no one in any rock band can sing this soulful. Ian Astbury is a GREAT SINGER. Listen to the resonation. This is a very melodic. in a way that is what stage is about...a UNIQUE peek into privacy of the artist process.
love the acoustic version of Sanctuary off the Love album / It seems more difficult to play this song acoustically than electrically. Electric CD no pun intended.
A pretty subdued performance, but good considering it's live...he's still got the great voice. I'll bet he can still belt it out on stage with The Cult. It's totally unfortunate that we're all growing older - I remember Ian was not only the best singer, but the most gorgeous guy alive 20 years ago.
@garygareth What are you talking about!?!? He sounds fine! You're just saying that cuz he's heavier now & you wanna say something negative! Come on man, he sounds great! Not too many people out there sound as good as Ian.
Midnight Meow he had not long had surgery on his knees and hips. He had to use a cane and sit for performances. He’s lost all the weight now. And looks so good.
This guy has a legend sitting next to him and he's trying to show off his guitar skills not cool, if this guitar player slowed it down a little bit and they met in the middle it would be a way better version, that's just my opinion
Man its sad to see how he let himself go, hes so handsome underneath all that fat, I wish I was as good looking as he used to be. His singing is still spot on none the less.

Luis: true.
Someone below said it best: the voice is hypnotic. I too find myself thinking of what else I could have done back in '87..
I JUST SAW THEM LAST WEEK IN NYC PIER 17. AMAZING SHOW.
I dare anyone to sound this good. Period.
Jaykee the Wolf: luis??

Jaykee the Wolf: true.

Thanks for sharing KaceyRae,,WOW!!

this is great, ian shows he really does have a lot more vocal talent than he gets credit for he should do more of this.
Maravilloso Yul Vazquez!
Badass awesome sound
How good a coupling is Sanctuary with Yal’s sitar sounding epic guitar? Perfect.
He sounds F'n awesome
Ah, love the delay with that guitar. Some Edge influence there. Fantastic stuff from Yul!
Most excellent
Ian x
Respect.
Yul Vazquez. The bad guy from Seinfeld!! WHO! WHO DOES NOT WANT TO WEAR THE RIBBON!!!
Brilliant that. Ta for the vid' mate.
love the acoustic version of Sanctuary off the Love album / It seems more difficult to play this song acoustically than electrically. Electric CD no pun intended.
mad voice
First, how old are you and how long have you followed The Cult? Second, post a picture of yourself and let us all make comments on how you look.
F-ing AWESOME>>>>

Is he Yul from Diving for pearls?
Yep
We all get old mate..That's if we're lucky. He still looks great to me though.
Que voz Ian ! Hermosa !
IAN greaaaatttt Guy
@garygareth What are you talking about!?!? He sounds fine! You're just saying that cuz he's heavier now & you wanna say something negative! Come on man, he sounds great! Not too many people out there sound as good as Ian.
The man is 50, not in his 20's anymore.
He's more likely 60
@andras178 it sure is! Good Memory
He sounds good, better than usual...
Why did he never sing this way with the band???
l love Ian's voice now and then and l would take him with the few extra pounds. Give the guy a break.
Midnight Meow he had not long had surgery on his knees and hips. He had to use a cane and sit for performances. He’s lost all the weight now. And looks so good.
We want a full report my sister!!!
Y
You must be a young man
Is that Bill Oddie?
This guy has a legend sitting next to him and he's trying to show off his guitar skills not cool, if this guitar player slowed it down a little bit and they met in the middle it would be a way better version, that's just my opinion
Very very dificulty to play with correct tempo with this delay
Someone has to say it....to much delay.
Bob the hoodlum from Seinfeld on guitar! Who? Who doesn't want to wear the ribbon?
@tigerini LOL! Come on all you guys are makin it sound like he's 70 or something! Geez he's not even old!
That rox tomcats...
age shall not weary him......getting old sux as we all know
The reverb/echo setup was awful - it threw the whole thing!
yeah and the edge ripped off paul reynolds(guitarist with flock of seagulls)
that's a good one
The man looks corpulent. I miss the slim, long-haired, youthful Ian.
Has Ian had some kind of massive head trauma?
No, You do though
Man its sad to see how he let himself go, hes so handsome underneath all that fat, I wish I was as good looking as he used to be. His singing is still spot on none the less.
He's lost that special voice of his :(
Needs a bass. Nice try🎸
Astbury, lost voice 👎
