Imagine! Being on one of those timber sailing ships. Horrifying! This song evokes the feelings of the horror and gives today those unfortunates a voice !!
Too busy listening to REO Speedwagon and similar Arena Rock guff, basically, had to be dragged out of the 70s and denim flares. Nowadays everybody dresses American, Baseball caps etc,

they were big in Los Angeles because we had KROQ. a great radio station that played new wave and punk music. there was Rodney Bingenheimer, a weekend late nite DJ who introduced us to so many amazing English, European and other alternative bands. i hated mainstream music. we were lucky to have all that great music in the 1980s.
Nocturnal Me - woeful, Ian needs to pick a tune Ocean Rain - majestic, my favorite version of the song Thorn of Crowns - nutso, wish we had seen the end of it (Ian's social commentary apparently was in reaction to having his house being robbed for the 3rd time that year)
sadly i was too "baby" for this,5 years old but i wish to going back in time to see this exhibition,maybe one of the best ever from my BUNNYBAND and i wish i can meet Pete...the best rumbling drummer ever!!!
Remember seeing this at the time, the c c c cucumber of Thorn of Crowns suddenly made me buy their back catalogue...loved ever since, first four albums the best by far though...
Why in the world would the camera man leave Ian's face during the "FROM BENEATH THAAAA WAAAAAAAA AAA AA VES" part?! Has been plaguing me for years. Tragic.
'All at sea again... ' - and that's just the vocal pitch and guitar tuning! ...Mac was still finding his live voice for these songs at this time. When he did they blew me away.
Still finding his live voice??? Clearly you haven't heard "Shine so hard" the live album they made long before this performance. British TV is very dodgy to get good sound in. Thats all
I disagree with the comment about Mac finding his voice or him being nervous as an excuse for his pitch change on Nocturnal Me. I think it was an intentional choice. That's just my take on it. I could be mistaken, but all of his other vocals were right on.
Watched this live, Friday tea time, pure bliss, if I remember right, they actually played/recorded another tune after show finished that I did hear-see at a later date.Anybody remember/know???
The audience were witnessing pure young genious's in their prime. There is no other band in the World like the Bunnymen!
And no other song like Thorn of Crowns!
genious's - lol
I love this band , they are so unique, no one comes close to their beautiful sound - But "genius"? noooo- no. Thats an over-used word
Was
Beautiful man,greatest hair and Ocean Rain is the 1980's Forever Changes!!!
Remember watching this on the tube when it was live incredible performance this is when the bunnymen where at there very best 👍👍
Man, British TV had so much great live music back then!

I will never understand how these guys didn't become number one in the U.S.A.? I guess Americans lack in musical taste.

They did with lips like sugar & people are strange in 1988 but it was already too late.

Wonderful to see it again
Really wishing they hadn’t cut off Thorn of Crowns. They were really tapping into something there
Saw them twice on the Ocean Rain Tour then twice again on the Songs To Learn and Sing.They were far far better than the TV appearances.
you are so lucky to have seen them live back then!
Crown of Thorns = best performance ever. Pete and Will are 🔥🔥🔥Les amazing as always. And Ian is in top form. Wish I could’ve seen this performed live.
Crown of Thorns, unbelievable
Just fucking awesome.
Nocturnal Me - woeful, Ian needs to pick a tune
Ocean Rain - majestic, my favorite version of the song

Best band on the planet .. I loved being the only kid who had heard of them, this album changed all that though.
Incredible. I'm pretty blown away..
Love it!!!🐰Thorn of crowns...wow awesome version!!!❤❤
What a version. Superb.
Rare live recording with good audio and video production.
Such an intense band!
Magic band
effortless magic...why can't it be like this no more, Ian?
the first song 'Nocturnal Me' was used for the end of episode 5 of 'Stranger Things' season 1! awesome song!
sadly i was too "baby" for this,5 years old but i wish to going back in time to see this exhibition,maybe one of the best ever from my BUNNYBAND and i wish i can meet Pete...the best rumbling drummer ever!!!
I must have been out the night this was on.

Wonderful ❤
I remember seeing this on the television all those years ago
6:23 imagine being on the receiving end of that gorgeous gaze. Sigh.
I know what you mean.
OHHHH YESSSSSSS
*sigh*
Why in the world would the camera man leave Ian's face during the "FROM BENEATH THAAAA WAAAAAAAA AAA AA VES" part?! Has been plaguing me for years. Tragic.
Pete. Fucking amazing
6:37 is so epic.
What did he see?? 😌🫦
Pete.......... That drumming on "nocturnal me" rings the first sounds of "dubstep".
Amazing!Miss The Tube.

Mat Mclean, I loved his vibrato in Nocturnal me.
@@matmc71 i've heard his mother were watching, and he got so nervous because of it that was hard to sing. So cute!

Major respect for playing live. Peerless vocals from Ian, before Pete lost the plot.
another diamond...
Superb!
My favorite version of Ocean Rain and Thorn of Crowns, but Nocturnal Me was a big mess xD
For me the best!.
Muito boa essa música! !
Pete.....................
What a drummer he was. So unique, even his own wreck was possessed.
Great footage of Pete.

Another KILLER transfer, "Travis". :)
you can still see the killing joke banners set up LOL
I think I can hear a future Radiohead amongst this gold
🖤
Julian Cope on first meeting Mac thought his name was Duke McCool!!!
12:07 bro's bursting 💀💀
As heavy as it gets.
muito bom....msm
no cooler band
Ghost made the best cover.
M
Why did ppl clap after Nocturn ? It was clearly AWFUL !
