Song came out on the album Love in 1985. I was 16. Sounded great then. Sounds great live now. Wish I looked that good after that many years. Every generation has a handful of bands and artists whose music never gets old. Inspires new fans. Would love to see them in Pittsburgh. I can guarantee 5 ticket sales.

Duffy: pissed off as usual. I worked the pit at one of their gigs in 2012 or so and he literally booted his monitor right on top of me. I've actually spoken to him since and he apologised. I can empathise: I have a White Falcon and a Jazz chorus too - not easy to get what you want.
Do you know most hard rock vocalists decline over they years, they often have problems with vocal nodes, but his voice is still amazing, perhaps even better than it was.
yes, but his grumpy old man response to the drum solo request should have been "great idea, mate"...it worked as a nice "fill" in for that particular moment
Been in to The Cult since day one and was at the London Lyceum for the culmination of their first tour in 1984. Strange, because I don't remember Astbury having an American accent back then....and it certainly doesn't enhance what is one of the greatest songs of all time. Also......was this show played in a mortuary, as the crowd seem to be dead!
I was literally thinking the same thing as I watch this wondering if it was a cover band because of his accent. Sounds totally American! Does he live here now? A lot of my favorite British bands from the 80s are now American citizens.
And yeah this crowd is so lame. They’re coming to my city in April and I’m going to be headbanging hard. I swear I have way more energy at concerts now than I did when I was a teen. I also don’t care now what people around me think like I used to. Lol

@@devintariel3769 Thanks for replying, but the expression in America for what you're describing is "breaking my back." You're expecting too much of me. Maybe there's a different saying in England. We also have "burns my ass" which is just a general expression of anger/resentment.

Uh, if the song's 38 years old, how old does that make Ian? (Hint: About 58 when this was recorded.) You know what 58 year-old rock vocalists who spent a day or two on HARD drugs can't do? Hit highs....
It's a punk thing. Drum solos hark back to the days of dinosaur rock with 30min boring drum solos. Punk blew all that away and Astbury was a punk back in the day and still carries that attitude
WTF is up with the audience? Back 30 years ago we'd be ripping the place apart to this song! Pathetic! Put the freaking phones away! Everything that's wrong with the world today is right here....
Great band forever and ever...best memories... still listening and rocking in 2022 !
His voice is great
I don’t know why but this song brings back memories one of my favorite songs thank you.
My favorite song of all time...and I'm a Zeppelin fan!
Ha ha ha!!!!!
Si, energia !
Try the Phoenix from the same album!!
ditto!

Thanks for share. Greetings from Brazil. 🇧🇷
Great show! They surely made a deal with the devil....it was like going back in time.
What a line up and Graig on bass legends
damn this is a is a good video. Sharing. Way to catch them handling technical buggery. I thought they were just screwing around. Ye Gods, what a show!
Funny guy, absolutely the greatest introduction 🐶🐶🐶
Saw them play this in Poole, UK in 1985. Good times 🇬🇧
Szia.Ez jó! Üdvözlet.
¡Toma ya, este pedazo de artista es mi eterno ídolo!🙏💙(En la prox vida nos daremos un gran abrazo).
30yrs ago in Paris they got boo off the French don' t know shit from clay
Crowds are so sedate theses days. I'd love to see them again here in Oz as it's been a few years now since they toured.
He's married to an Aussie girl so most definitely we will 😊
Seriously! I would be freaking out if was there.
Well, we are in our 50's now...

Ian Astbury has the perfect rock voice
Along with Blackie

I can’t believe this.. It’s like Ian has dropped 20 years!! 🙌👏👉🇦🇺

He's had too much cocaine......
If he's recovered then better for him.

spark in jaw eyes
Almost looks like " the moon" in Florida! Hey come here man!!!!!!!.
Holy shit. Fastest ever live!!??
If this song does not get you moving, have someone check your pulse.
On a Freedom, impressing Big Mitch Baker again. After all these years.
The Phone brigade are in...what a waste of seats!
People should have their bloody phones taken off them on the way in. Tossers.

1 of a select few with golden pipes and no others have Duffy and his White Falcon
They played a lil nite club at 4 and Brannon I met Steve Masters of Quake Radio Station
Was this filmed in North Korea, or some other place where they never heard the song before?
Einfach nur geil!!! That is What IT IS... Endlessly fucking geil...

Audience: "Drum Solo!!"
Vocalist: Drum solo?? Are you fuc**ng kidding??
Drummer: [plays drum solo]
Audience: [big applause]
Vocalist: Well.... ?
Band: "She Sells Sanctuary" (only thing to top the drum solo)
A good drummer as well
3:05
Ian has THE coolest hair.. why’d he cut it? 🥳
Is that Ian Astbury!?! The audience looks like a bunch of accountants. Iconic 80's tune though.
Did someone cross the Doors with Billy Idol?
Love the cult
Ian will never play the outfield for the Yankees 😂😂😂😂
What’s with the American accent ?
Dead fans …. geez
B
Ian's accent is gone...😪
Along with his voice...
should not be playing 16 beats on SSS, Ian needs to sing too, still sounds fab tho!!
'Drum solo!' 'drum solo? are you f......'
Was
A bloated Astbury and how did he lose his English accent? Weird.
Exactly!
God,that was more boring than I thought it would be.
The crowd in SF is so lame!
The first single off the album Love...& the one song I still think is awful... probably because it has been played too death.
Always loved the song musically, however "makes my back burn?" Is this supposed to be an expression of emotion? Jealousy? Betrayal? Anger? WTF
Anxiety and the stresses of adult life and work what the expectations of being an adult man are.

Meelehneeohsss..
Totally agree bro, bit of head nodding and mild toe tapping. Reackon id be pogoing head n shoulders over these dobaneesers.🥸
It ruins their recording if they moves
Just awful how he sings it like that. Stick to the way it supposed to be sung.
uh, it's called a live show for a reason. he can sing it any f**king way he wants....

That looked boring as shit and sounded horrible! Watch the video of them at 93.7 radio station, it kicks ass!
Drum solo! You're boring us to death by gabbing on and on! Do something!
Who said drum solo? Get him out of the building! At least it wasn't a bass solo...
Don't know what all the crap at the start is about. Just wasting our lives. Play the song.
Weird accent!
God just get to the music and cut the crap. Wasted three minutes flapping lips with inner group chit chat.
Truly awful vocals!!!!!
Who is that singing? Thats not Ian
