Ian Brown acknowledged that Waterfall was primarily John's composition and 'Don't Stop' was John playing around with his masterpiece, backwards. Fantastic.
Don’t stop is much more than a reversed waterfall - it seems to use that as a foundation then layer lots of other stuff over it - creating a sort of mellow cousin to waterfall and takes the album into a mellow psychedelic place - it’s my favourite track off the album. I love don’t stop. X
i remember being 16 in 1994, buying this album and being totally blown away by the fact that they did waterfall and then immediately did waterfall backwards. that they can play it live is even cooler. it still impresses me i wake, i steal, look how i feel- loose
People who think this band is all about Ian Brown and John Squire have totally missed the point. Mani and Reni create a groove bigger than the grand canyon! Seen them at Heaton Park (which felt like the biggest party ive ever been to btw!) and Finsbury Park but would love to hear their whole set like this.
a great point. without reni they'd just sound like a grunge band (see the second coming gigs). people forget how important a groove is, not just the melody. we have evolved to dance, and reni and mani brought the funk. not many bands have the funk.
People love 4 peices. Let's face, ever since The Beatles. All you need here, a singer with some percussion in his hands, a talented drummer backing the singer's vocals, a great guitarist and excellent bass player. A tight unit.
Reni is the reason I started to play drums 20+ years ago and to see him better than ever now is again awe inspiring - I was there at Heaton Park but to see his work (beats and bv's) this up close is just mind - blowing...
Did you see/have you heard his drum solo intro to Resurrection at Finsbury Park? I think it was Mani who said he would've paid to watch Reni play on his own, I couldn't agree more.
James Beardmore No he's right, this is Waterfall in reverse. Elephant Stone in reverse is a track called Full Fathom Five (which was one of the B-sides to Elephant Stone)
Absolutely magical. What an incredible guitarist John Squire really is and as for Ian and Reni's harmonies, brilliant just brilliant. Long live The Roses!
I took for granted all this back in the day but I realise just how privileged i was to have been rounded at the time.It was the best of days..a real fucking blinder!
Seriously impressive that they learned how to play this so well considering the album version was pretty much just a backmasked version of Waterfall with a few overdubs... and Reni is still the heart of the Roses music... great stuff...
Hypnodelica I know. There was a point in giving us Don't Stop in the first place. Hard making the lyrics out back in the day, but it was a very emotional tune and I interpreted the lyrics as I pleased. Think we all did. The original was trippy as hell. It's a favourite of mine.
Kelly14UK These blokes probably sold their soul back in the day. How can you make such a great song as "Waterfall" and then do it backwards with different lyrics and make it awesome again?
*-* Ask the Starchild *-* Paul Schroeder, I think was the producer's name. He's the artist on those backwards records. You probably know this already, but I'll post it for the benefit of noobs : Elephant Stone/ Full Fathom Five; Waterfall/ Don't Stop; Made of Stone/ Guernica; Where Angels Play/ Simone and She Bangs The Drums/ I Am Without Shoes.
It's amazing to see it when you've heard the album version. I was a bit young when the album came out so didn't really properly listen until around 20 years ago. This is majestic.
I love the fact u feeling the roses together in the studio, it's a mancz ting, and a brotherly love for them all time, I find it, a Waterfall, lucky boro fc
I can't find words special enough to express how much this means to me at the moment. I just keep watching this and Waterfall and it's really helping me through a bad period of my life. Watching Reni really raises my spirits, he's so expressive and the beautiful vocals and rhythms topped off with Squires guitar just 👌
The more I listen to this, the more amazing and incredible it seems. every nuance. It actually sounds like a song backwards (I realise it is, but to make it sound like it is no mean feat!), the intonation, the timing, Reni's harmonies just a skip of a beat behind, giving it that slightly delayed, almost dragging sound you get when you hear something played backward - pure genius - love them!
thanks for uploading! good to see the whole band at their best again. i hope shane meadows and the lads release the full rehearsals, parr hall & heaton park footage SOON!! roses rule!!!
a true mystery how ian brown can sound so abysmally awful so often live, and then here and there.....BOOM....literal perfection. the harmonies here are angelic....perfect.
I always thought this was the Waterfall played backwards...Now....This is just outstanding composing masterpiece of syncopated rhythms and harmonies...Absolute musical craftsman-ship here...And Ian's lyrics to top it up! What else would you wish from the music?
+Cyrus Budd Of course it is Waterfall backwards. I always thought his was a bad idea. First of all Waterfall is such a wonderful song &, second, it sounds sh!t backwards!!
All talented musicians. good lord what chemistry. I have never seen this before. Most successful bands would kill for just a drop of this. Hope they use it and make us happy and better.
My fav Roses song, this dosen't quite have the dreamy phychedelic feel of the original recording (obviously) but to see these four great artists at work is awesome, many thanks for posting
But in the context that the original recording was just Waterfall reversed with a few overdubs it's fucking extraordinary that they learned to play it live like this...
Mind blowing and brilliant. So blessed to have had this band in my life since 1989. This is my favourite part of the film, even though it’s just in the extra’s. Do hope something is put out at some point , just from these rehearsals. They must have hours and hours and hours of footage.
Look how much they absolutely love playing this. Such an incidental tune on the LP when it came out. My fave tune live every time i saw them on the comeback tours/s.
So tight and polished without a hint of arrogance and aged perfectly with out aging and in the region of 30 years with only one album that never feels exhausted or rinsed and is one of 5albums that can be played entirely without any ffwd or interruption
I truly hope these guys understand that it doesn't matter if they never made another record as successful, or as impactful as this one. This album is such an incredible accomplishment, such an influence, such a masterpiece, that making it is more than enough for anyone to have done in one life. It has had such a profound effect on so many people, myself included. Side note, this album was playing the first time I experienced romantic love... I don't know if the album enhanced that experience, or vice versa,.,. but that experience, and these songs are intrinsically linked forever now. (Miss you Jill Lott).
This song makes me feel 10 foot tall and invincible and utterly proud to like this type of music. This band is stamped on my heart.
Yeah man. The world's a bit shit right now but this makes me feel the goodness. The joy. It's pure beauty.
perfect
LET'S PLAY ONE OUR BEST TUNES - THEN LET'S PLAY IT FUCKIN BACKWARDS
The real wonder is that it sounds pretty good.
Pmsl
Damn so clever there's tallent rite there say no more love this👍👍👊
Listen
Reni's vocal are simply stunning here. Cant stop watching this. the whole piece is beautiful.
+CherryPhosphate70 Totally agree..
+CherryPhosphate70 Great to see "Tomorrow Never Knows" actually done straight as a rock band.
+CherryPhosphate70
Same here; each and every time engrossingly mezmerizing.
+CherryPhosphate70 Guy was talented as hell. Mersey Paradise one of the finest songs ever. Hope he did backing vocals on that brilliant song.
Cant stop watching it? Then Dont Stop.
You're welcome.
I'll let myself out.
Alan Wren. The worlds most talented musician. Effortless drumming combined with harmonising with Ian Browns lyrics. It doesn’t get any better.
I agree with Andy Reni as a genius has synchronisation with brown is something to behold_keep the faith Andy 🛵🛵🛵
they should have statues of him in Salford
So fucking unacknowledged

Ian Brown acknowledged that Waterfall was primarily John's composition and 'Don't Stop' was John playing around with his masterpiece, backwards. Fantastic.
Squire dictates that whole jam. Class
Johns writing is imagery, so john wrote waterfall, tighttrope, breaking into heaven, ians is more statemets, like a rapper, fear, cant see me, corpses
@@rizzledizzle9801best example is that ian wrote the verse and john wrote the chorus to she bangs the drums
Best drummer of all time. Just listening to him play makes me smile every time.
I'm a drummer of 25 years and a fan.....RENI is simply incredible. All in the wrist! He FEELS all of it.
Don’t stop is much more than a reversed waterfall - it seems to use that as a foundation then layer lots of other stuff over it - creating a sort of mellow cousin to waterfall and takes the album into a mellow psychedelic place - it’s my favourite track off the album. I love don’t stop. X
their finest performance. this songs brings up a strange mix of feelings - excitement, beauty and revolution. makes me feel like anything is possible.
me too, datsunyellow, love this
Perfect definiction
🙄
right - what England could and should be now
The smile between John and mani at 2:18 was the recognition of greatness
I’m going through a tough time right now and this track has an oddly calming and euphoric effect. Thank you Stone Roses 🌹
Hope you're better now! This song is magic!

I`m 43 years old, I wept unashamed tears of joy in the cinema when this part came up.
Lea Millership did the same a few nights ago whilst listening.......Reni omg.
No shame in that at all

When people say really obvious things, and act like they're the first person to ever say it - Reni/Mani were a great rhythm section. We know
@@chrisjames6327 you having a pop at an 8 year old comment? 🤣

Fuck! The drummer has an awesome voice! Wow! Just one of the many of the uniquenesses of this band!
Not a word in the comments on the fact that this song is actually "Waterfall" in Reverse ? Above Genius, supernatural
Probably because it was Elephant Stone in reverse...
James Beardmore No he's right, this is Waterfall in reverse. Elephant Stone in reverse is a track called Full Fathom Five (which was one of the B-sides to Elephant Stone)
Because most people already know that its waterfall backwards
piluleli no, because that was obvious since the album was released. Nothing new
Probably because everyone on planet earth knows it's Waterfall in reverse, so it doesn't need to be said.
The chemistry is almost spiritual here.
ian and reni's harmonies
Mani and reni's beat
John and reni's fills
+djphineart It is lovely ...but Ian and Reni have clearly been auto-tuned
+sratus not at all lol
It's as clear as day, listen to it again, their voices sound robotic
+sratus when they made the first album there was no way of auto'tuning sounded very good to me ...its not the fookin xfactor
anthony truman not talking about the vocals on the first album
Still one of the greatest things on the internet.
Still
@@jameswhittingham8027 It's that good of a song in it's own right you forget it's Waterfall backwards.
@@Britpopsoul Paint your steel guitar from the top.
Such a great version. Notice at 1:56 and 3:54 (and more times) how Reni is moving below the cymbals to make eye contact with Ian for the vocals...
RENI is incredible
Absolutely magical. What an incredible guitarist John Squire really is and as for Ian and Reni's harmonies, brilliant just brilliant. Long live The Roses!

I took for granted all this back in the day but I realise just how privileged i was to have been rounded at the time.It was the best of days..a real fucking blinder!
What a bloke reni is.
I'm not sure what this means, but I'm pretty sure I agree with it.
Just beautiful! I wanna cry for all the lost years and songs that never were. Thanks for these posts.
this a thing of beauty .Made me cry watching it .unreal
Just absolutely beautiful......brought up to love the Beatles, the Floyd, the Who, but MY band, from MY generation were the best of them all..........

It's amazing to see it when you've heard the album version. I was a bit young when the album came out so didn't really properly listen until around 20 years ago. This is majestic.
Beyond Sublime. What a special band they were. Changed my life, man.
I can’t actually explain the feeling I get from this. Suppose that’s what makes it so special.
listen to those voices intertwine and give it to us all.mancland!!
Oh man the bass and drums are in total harmony while the guitar compliments the tune beautifully
Loved you guys since I were 13. Now 39 and still love your music. fekkin brill!
michael joseph met them when i was 12 in 89 now 37 :)
I got chills the first time the radio played "I wanna be adored" here in the states, instant fan.
How many times am I going to watch this...
It will be cause it's my phone Mugg s got my number but not sure if you hatiy yes
Never gets old just gets better and better with age the music is timeless and beautiful

Mr Wren's vocals are sweet, and is as harmonic as his drums, Mr Moon would be insanely impressed,
Agreed!
Who cares about Moons thoughts? Like it's not important what anyone thinks. Just you.
this is why i love music so much, the understanding of these 4 is something to behold
Mani! always so modest, playing like he's a kid being given his 1st go... godlike! 😎
thanks for uploading! good to see the whole band at their best again. i hope shane meadows and the lads release the full rehearsals, parr hall & heaton park footage SOON!! roses rule!!!
very happy to see these boys together again, i was one of those who bought their album in 89 and still one of my faves, Thank You very very much!!
what a gem .
Absolute stunning work of art.
What a special band, these tunes are getting played at my funeral! All 4 of them could do individual solo shows and play a blinder!
a true mystery how ian brown can sound so abysmally awful so often live, and then here and there.....BOOM....literal perfection. the harmonies here are angelic....perfect.
Autotune here for the film. He does sound okay sometimes though.
Can't believe I missed these guys when they came out!!!
Great songwriting/guitarwork and vocal harmonies.
It brings me too my knees
So good
So musical
Reni and Ian singing together is simply perfect 👌
I get chills each time that I listen to this and each time I get so lost within the melody and lyrics.
Divine!
Lot of love here between them ....totally amazing !!!!
Absolutely beautiful. Backing vocals just pierce your soul.

effortless and flawless...

Could listen this on loop all day, beautiful ❤❤
So sad it all ended before they could cut a new album. "Beautiful Thing" is a stunning track and a taste of what might have been.
Reni's got the most beautiful voice as well as being the most energetic and talented drummer I've ever witnessed
when your rehearsals is better than your concert , youre LEGEND !
I don't want to get famous Bob
My favorite part of the Madison Square Garden gig! Waterfall/Don't Stop blew my world away!!
This never ever ever gets old, music today doesn’t even get anywhere near this
The mark of a truly great drummer is to make playing look so easy. Reni does this and then some. Amazing musicianship

I can't believe how good these guys sound. I can't believe how they aged gracefully. I can't believe how good Mani sings and plays these funkys beats.
its Reni on drums mate…. Mani plays bass
Thank you, I always do that, I'm so dumb haha!
Mani means peanut in spanish 😅
True fan right there.
The way Ian plays guitar and John sings, with Reni’s bass lines is just the cherry on the cake 👌🏻

Best 5 minutes of music I’ve heard
Years on... still shining so brightly. Time doesn't darken beauty and genius.
Excellent !
Didn't think it was possible, but this is better than the recorded version!
Amazing. Somewhat magical! Legends
Pure class, that's music.
The sound of Ian and Reni's voices together is pure magic 😍
Love this session n it's got to be said RENI excellent 👌🏻
Absolutely blown away 😭😭 the genius!
One of my favourite roses tunes absolute classic
This is ridiculously good
I love a man I've never met. Reni is the coolest man in the planet. I could eat his beats. The soul of The Roses.
The greatest. One love. 🍋
