  • Thompson Twins ― Love On Your Side (The Tube 1983) Live
    [Month, Day, Year] featured on The Tube - Series 1 Set (1983)
    'Love On Your Side' from the album 'Quick Step and Side Step' (1983)
    Lyrics:
    I hear you laughing in some other room
    And it makes me feel locked out
    You say my passion often stifles you
    And you need to move about
    But I was taught that boys need girls and girls need boys
    You say that's not true
    You'd rather fool around than be alone with me
    Well, that's alright for you
    'cause you got love, love, love on your side
    'cause you got love, love, love on your side
    'cause you got love, love, love on your side
    'cause you got love, love, love on your side
    I've bought you sentimental roses
    But you gave them all away
    I've played you all my favorite records
    Then we spent the night in talking, talking all the time...
    You sent me home
    I was so surprised to find that after all
    It doesn't hurt to be alone
    (REPEAT CHORUS)
    Well all the things you say make perfect sense to me
    Somehow I'm still unsure
    Then I catch myself going through the same old rhapsody
    RAP BOY RAP!
    And I don't understand just what I'm doing to myself
    I guess that's nothing new
    'cause when you meet someone who doesn't follow all the rules
    It changes everything you do
    Performed Live: [debatable considering the keyboard antics]
    The Tube was a United Kingdom music television programme, which ran for five series, from 5 November 1982 to 26 April 1987.
    The Tube was an important outlet for the performers in addition to being the launchpad for new and upcoming performers.
    Presented live by hosts including Jools Holland, Paula Yates,
    in an era where most music TV shows featured non-stop miming, the fully live sets by the guest artists were innovative though the sound quality wasn't what we enjoy today.

    It's 4.30 am and I can't sleep, and I have this song in my head. So I have put it on but I wanted to hear it live, and here it is. Brilliant.

    The greath Boris Williams from The Cure on the drums!

    Borris Williams on drums, he was using a Simmons SDSV and a Movement Percussion Computer with the TT, great drummer!

      Yes! Boris is/was an awesome drummer! Didn’t see him with TT but definitely saw him during his time with The Cure! He was the best drummer they ever had!!🥁🥁🥁🔥🔥👊🏽😁👍🏽🎶

      Ah I thought it was him from the Cure! Hard to play an SDSV live. Pads very hard and sometime triggering was a bit chaotic.

      @carlosserrano3985 Před 6 měsíci +1

      @@discodave6153 True, the early SDSV pads were really hard but I saw another TT concert where he upgraded the pads with the mark III pads, those have the rubber playing surface and I think he added the SDS-7 brain along with the Movement Computer.
      I got those early SDSV pads in red color.

      Unfortunately sounds like a backing track or someone behind the scenes.

    Brilliant clip! Who'd've thought Joe Leeway would go on to a long and successful career on TV as one of the main characters in Red Dwarf. If only...

      Pleasure Victim - “you’re the object of my smile” and thanks for the shared enthusiasm for the TTwins.. Among the two disc set of performances only a handful made it to bbc’s series 1 anthology of selected artist highlights. So many great artists performed over the 5 season run it’s a shame that most are lost to history..

    I heard that Joe took synth lessons from Fletch.

      @petercarrington948 Před 2 měsíci +1

      Ha ha, so true my friend 😂😂😂and hope the camera is not on your hands! I saw one live concert video where he actually played some keys on the Sequencial T8 to make sure make sure it was muted first before the song began.😊 Can somebody tell Joe that the keyboard is not a percussion instrument.

      Later to join The Cure in time for The Head On The Door record. IMO he was the best drummer The Cure ever had! He’s awesome!!🥁🥁🥁🔥🔥🎶😁👍🏽👊🏽

    I wouldn't want to be the guy on the Stingray bass playing that repetitive line😉

    I'm not sure what Joe was doing with that Prophet 5 but he sure as hell wasn't making any sounds with it.

    At 1.18 Joe has the microphone in its stand, then he is holding it in is hand, then it is back in the stand. Was this recorded in one take?

      Not only that. The music doesn’t go with the synthesizer playing🤷🏾‍♂️.

  • @petercarrington948
    @petercarrington948 Před 2 měsíci

    NI love Thompson Twins, but what exactly is Joe Leeway doing with that synth?🤔🤔🤔 Miming very badly!

      He's miming / it's not connected.

    Live? Not so much. Leeway isn’t even trying to mime the keyboard parts

  • @MrArtist7777
    @MrArtist7777 Před 5 měsíci +2

    Funny, Joe's keyboard is turned off and Tom and Alana are shaking pointless widgets. LOVE the Twins, but this "live" performance is a lip-sync performance.

    • @petercarrington948
      @petercarrington948 Před 2 měsíci

      Agree, it does sound like a backing track. And I too am long term fan. I wish Joe had not tried to bluff keyboard playing (badly) it's so obvious.

      I think the drums, timbales and lead vocal is live and everything else is on tape.
