was an awesome time to see them,i was fortunate enough to see them at massey hall toronto,4th row floor,what a show....they just gave and gave,it was a magical night for sure,i so agree with you the late 70`s early eightees was the center of a musical revolution....
Sings like Bowie, looks like Rotten. Either way, this is one of the greatest songs ever and this is best version of the song, period. Love how he sings the end here.
@@bauhaus1961 even Call My By Your name aside, it's a song about gay people fighting oppression/loving the way they want to love so it's a bittersweet song. These lines in particular: They'd put us on a railroad They'd dearly make us pay For laughing in their faces And making it our way There's emptiness behind their eyes There's dust in all their hearts They just want to steal us all And take us all apart
I’m glad that “call me by your name” brought a lot of people to this song and band...makes me wonder how many other great songs by bands from the 80’s could be revitalized by proper use in an excellent film 🤔
Just saw The Psyches a little over a week ago. Still going strong. So many memories with this and so many other Psyches tunes. From ecstatic and boundless sky highs, to the deepest crushing depths. The 80's will *FOREVER* rule my world. *_THE PSYCHEDELIC FURS RULE..._*
I seen them in concert more then 5 times. Each version of this song is unique depending on condition of his voice might be in. One of my favorite bands of the 80's.
I found it interesting that the hired on keyboard player keeps the root "E" on the 2nd time loop instead of a "G"...I've always wanted to ask Todd if he played that in the studio. Hmmm, maybe a question for him in ATL this Oct.
Impressive to hear the "Ahwww Hoooo" part actually being done live! All of the acoustic versions done the recent years are pretty wild sounding too.....
My husband was singing that orrible "and i ran" song and i channelled my most fav song from back then and luckily remembered "love my way" what a song, great band
The Psychedelic Furs have always been a top notch, "A-list" band that have rightfully *earned* their *_own_* merit. Sad to see them constantly being held up to the Bowie/The Cure "yardstick" as if those artists have a monopoly on this style or genre of music...
River of Blacklights, if you notice, those comparisons between Bowie/the Cure are either from people who didn't grow up in the 80s or lack musical knowledge and ability to discern sounds and vocals.
I went to see them a few years ago. I thought, what the hell, its something to do, no big deal. OMG! I'm so glad I went! These guys are nothing short of real pros!!! They are tight and consistent. I left feeling like I just saw Kiss or Ozzy! Ass kicking concert! Dude sings like a champ! Band is right on the money!
The tempo of this version could be slower than the original but it still sounds AMAZING, different... their performance is really good, much, better than any millennial auto tuned band/singer from these days.
The Furs are one of the bands that have no equal... They are so unique that to sound similar would be to copy. Even if its a song I don't recognize, I instantly know its the Furs.
Karla DeVito sang back up. I first heard her on the Breakfast Club soundtrack (the part where they're all dancing). It's funny how these people are all connected.
I am blown away by you guys. This is my favorite song of the era. So happy to see tours still happening and even happier to see you rocking it harder than you thirty years ago! I was born in '87, very possibly concieved to this joint!.... The first time I discovered how cool my dad really is was him telling me about listening to this song on LSD on quadraphonic 4.0? Speakers on vinyl and it blowing his mind. I had always associated trippy music with earlier decades but my tripping play list has always included this and stuff spanning from 140 years ago to present...
Don't hate me. I'm 28 now and I'm here due to CMBYN. This song is just so fucking haunting, makes me feel like I'm into a party which only exists in my dreams, with a new love who only exists in my head. I wanna cry...
I would not have objected if the '80s never ended

I love that statement!
Sings like Bowie, looks like Rotten. Either way, this is one of the greatest songs ever and this is best version of the song, period. Love how he sings the end here.
and some moves like Jagger
reminds me of Brian Ferry.
Not so much like Rotton in this vid
Looks and sounds like Richard Butler
Unique in my opinion.
Sings like Bowie looks like Howerd ( Frankie).
I feel so blessed to have been a teenager/ young adult during the 80's. It was such a great time to be young and carefree!
One of the most beautiful songs written.
this song makes me cry
Why is that? If you don't mind me asking?
@@teariet.tekken-wolffenn5881 probably because he likes the movie Call Me By Your Name
Yep, this song also makes me cry..
me too...

This song always puts me in a trance.
Same!!
Yeah, what the hell is that… connecting to something I don’t understand
Saw them when I was like 16 and this had just come out. I’m 54 now. They were so good. Can’t believe so much time has passed
Tell me about it

Or forever stereotyped outside of its epoch!
firstbornjordan- that too.
It was in the wedding singer too
Yes some people never heard of. Them
I just saw the movie for the first time....LOVED IT👍👍
Even though I was born in ‘92, I can feel the 80s, especially with songs like this
This version slows my heart rate so much that my eyesight gets blurry.
It brings you into Presence? How cool...
THATS BECAUSE ITS SO DREAMY ... AND SUCH A GREAT SONG TOO ;)
The wedding singer introduced me to this song, always loved this song since I was a kid
Such a unique voice. That raspy voice works here!
42 years old and I absolutely love this man and I love this band
Love that voice, so identifiable.
Usually live acts are speeded up. This tempo creates another dimension to the song. Good one.
Best decade ever. Nothing will ever come close to it.
Just saw The Psyches a little over a week ago. Still going strong. So many memories with this and so many other Psyches tunes. From ecstatic and boundless sky highs, to the deepest crushing depths. The 80's will *FOREVER* rule my world. *_THE PSYCHEDELIC FURS RULE..._*
Modsleix 6 luck u
He sounds just like the album….wow!!!!
Such an amazing song!!!! Beautiful and hauntingly entrancing!!! And Richard Butler has charisma for days!!
Love this live version! Very atmospheric and seductive.
What a performance man, it's a once in a lifetime performance, greatest of all time...
This version is without the xylophone. Richard Butler does this song with cool and a cigarette. Love this song!
I seen them in concert more then 5 times. Each version of this song is unique depending on condition of his voice might be in. One of my favorite bands of the 80's.
Its a fairlight not a xylo
Sounds like they had some potent Jamaican ganja that night. The song is a bit slower than usual.
I found it interesting that the hired on keyboard player keeps the root "E" on the 2nd time loop instead of a "G"...I've always wanted to ask Todd if he played that in the studio. Hmmm, maybe a question for him in ATL this Oct.
Fun to watch the Furs. Must have been a different time when entertainers could smoke and sing at the same time?
I saw them live last year and they were FLAWLESS.
Fantastic! Grateful for footage like this in 2023
Fell in love with this band with their debut album.
This is great. Brings back memories. I remember when I was 14 and they aired this concert on tv.
Exactly. I was roughly the same age. First time I had heard this song.
Incredible version of an incredible song from an incredible band
Impressive to hear the "Ahwww Hoooo" part actually being done live! All of the acoustic versions done the recent years are pretty wild sounding too.....
Its Bowie and the Cure all in one.
Good call !
The Psychedelic Furs are beyond strong enough to stand on their own merit...
River Of Blacklights relax
Can't see the cure myself deffo Bowie a bit.. good call though
like heroes when start
Started listening to more and more of PF lately, absolutely superb band.
THE FURS!!
One of the best....
One of my all-time favorites thank you very much psychedelic furs
3:26 I pretty much adore this part 💕 He sounds nostalgic
Oh, it's a young Ed Buller on keyboards there. Known for his work as a great producer, engineer for bands like Suede, Pulp, Sulk etc
so real xylophones weren't used in this song?? thats disappointing..
In the original record, it was a marimba, played by Todd Rundgren. However, they chose to use a Fairlight for the sounds in this live version.
Smoking and singing "Love my way" so rad dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🤒🤒🤒🤒
Amazing group of the 80's. I do not compare them to anyone. It was a great time of music as was the 60's and 70's.
When this song was out it was just another song to me. Now it means more and more to me every time I hear it. And I don't hear it enough.
Richard butler is one of the best vocalist of all time in my opinion, the man has a voice from the heavens.
WOW, I love this slower version. So much power.
I used to smoke cigarettes while playing racquetball in the 80s.
HAHA, man I miss that decade , no other like it.
Love this song. "Call me by your name", beautiful memories.
Love the version, more slowly than original, GREAT!!!
Шикарный голос! Батлер красавчик!👍
The drumming is perfect totally spot on cant beat that 80s snare drum.
He looks so high omg
You can't win or lose, if you don't run the race!
Omg what a voice and he is so cute💗💗💗
My husband was singing that orrible "and i ran" song and i channelled my most fav song from back then and luckily remembered "love my way" what a song, great band
Elio and Oliver
mendoza008 call me by your name and i’ll call you by mine
@@katiemaldonado1707 elio👆
Shut up.🙄
Quit associating this fantastic song with those two. Wahi' Valleys
I'm a classic rock fan but first time I heard this really loved it and to this day one of my favorites
Have ALWAYS loved this song!
Love this band, remember listening to them in the 80’s on the radio and hearing in some of my favorite 80’s teen movies , with Molly Ringwald 😎
Still nailed it.

They couldn't be more different than those two!
Great song!
I would have loved to hear Bowie sing this one!
Best sung slow...awesome version....!
Great true and raw performance love my way!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I absolutely love this band!!!!
I love this song, and did back then too. It seems more meaningful now.
I am hoping Butler never got health problems from his near-constant smoking!
I love 80's style
Such a great song and believe it or not it didn’t do brilliantly well as a single. What were people thinking of back in 82??
Have always loved this song🙂
I went to see them a few years ago. I thought, what the hell, its something to do, no big deal.
OMG! I'm so glad I went! These guys are nothing short of real pros!!! They are tight and consistent.
I left feeling like I just saw Kiss or Ozzy!
Ass kicking concert!
Dude sings like a champ! Band is right on the money!
Love this song. Do not be confused. Richard Butler is the lead singer. His brother, Tim, is playing bass. Todd Rundgren produced the album and song.
I’ve always liked this tune.
Fantastic band His voice is awesome
I miss the 80s!! it starts with PF his voice his posture makeup even the cigarette he holds while he sings.
So talented and unique……🙏🏻👏🏻✨
Omg this version ❤
Love skiing with this song on!!
The tempo of this version could be slower than the original but it still sounds AMAZING, different... their performance is really good, much, better than any millennial auto tuned band/singer from these days.
Copious amounts of Jamaican ganja were smoked that night...
Fascinating to watch Richard as always.🧡
what a fucking voice!!!you can't learn that, have to be born with it.....love Richards voice 100%

john vicky yassss
That is fooking brilliant....end of post....
Best version, he sings well while goofing
soo amazing 💫
The Furs are one of the bands that have no equal... They are so unique that to sound similar would be to copy. Even if its a song I don't recognize, I instantly know its the Furs.
one of my all-time favorite songs
A lot of bands are known for a lot of things but not many for one perfect song, RESPECT ✊🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Most favorite!
The Furs, Great Music and Memories!
Great piece of music. Didn't think they could do it live!
Saw them last night! So damn good!!

Bowie's shadow is long indeed. Of course, this promises loads of sonic enjoyment.
fucking amazing
hell yeah!
WAY ahead of its time ! Dope
Has his own style....furs are awesome....
Beautiful voice!
Can’t wait to see them ❤
Even as A GUY, I loved this guy! And this song!!
