One of the most ridiculously under-rated bands ever.
Bill 'Sputnik' Spooner was the heart and soul of The Tubes.
40 years gone so fast. Still a beautiful song
Tubes,sadly didn’t make it huge,too arty for some but for us Tubes fans,perfection.
Well said.❤
"The completion Backward Principle" was THE Album for me as a teen - and i still like it today. Perfekt in Sound and playin'....
The audiences for whom master pieces are made does not exist. Tubes were beyond most people. Stupid primates.
One of the greatest, if not the greatest rock band ever.
Exactly...
I WAS the biggest Tube fan - the singer, Bill Spooner, who does a great job of singing and playing guitar was a very dear friend of mine (along with Vince Wellnick on keyboards who played for The Grateful Dead until his sad, premature passing!) This is by far my favorite Tubes' ballad - a rare "serious" tune from a very much comedic, high energy Art Rock band that still hasn't gotten its dues! One of the GREAT shows of SF Rock that regularly made it to a small group of loyal European fans.
Oh you lucky man...I'd give my other index finger to meet Bill Spooner...his playing kept me inspired to keep playing after my neck hand index finger was ripped off...WPOD was my practice song even after the neighbors called the police...
I just saw and talked to Bill today.. He's doing good!
Love this band long time tubes fan from early 70s very few bands have moved my soul like this band!!!
@@ausfuhrpramienjagarthank you very much for offering to ask Bill about the TRUE author or authors of this timeless masterpiece
@@grahamt33 ... YW. I'll see what I can find out.
Sputnik Spooner was the heart and soul of the band.This shoulda been a hit he killed it.
So right! I've been in love with this song from first meeting...and love will last 'til the end of all time ♥
@@ameCaline07 .. I have to watch this video at least once a day or I start having withdrawals!.. LOL 🙂
Bill Spooner was a great vocalist!
Love it!! "Completion Backward Principle"--Awesome Album. ❤
I have always loved this song...I have been on a TUBES binge tonight. What great memories.
@Mary, yes it's always such a sweet and wonderful thing to meet old love's....especially at a time, when the world no longer look like the world we used to know.
A lil'bit like coming home, yes...?
Me too!!!
@@ameCaline07 You can never go home, but you can tear up remembering. Bas ass Bill sounds sweet here.
Possibly the best live band I ever saw.
God yes.
I was honored to be able to photograph them twice. What a fantastic experience.
Agreed, saw at the Shaboo in CT 70’s
Pantages Theater, LA. Winter 1978....What Do You Want From Live tour. Indisputably the best live performance I've ever seen.
Agree, definitely talented and unique.
TUBES forever.... Greetings from Germany....🇺🇸🇩🇪
I don’t get how this song and album didn’t do way better than it did. One of the best albums ever. It got played a lot in Australia.🇦🇺 We have good taste in bands here and expect a lot.😜
We knew from the first day my older brother bought the first album home. Saw the first show in NYC. BLEW US AWAY, and we saw a lot of shows!!!!
I am lucky enough to have seen them live. 3 great shows. You don't have to be a mega group to make great songs. WPOD forever...
I was lucky to see them in 4 concerts. 3 of them were their "infamous" New Year's Eve concerts = twice at Bimbo's 365 and then when they got "famous" and performed to a sold out at Bill Graham's Winterland on New Year's Eve 1975, with beautiful girls running around topless and one depiction of one of the showgirls getting schtupped (NOT in the audience but on the stage!) during their "artistically outrageous" performance. I also saw them perform a couple of songs; including "Haloes" at the "infamous" AVN Adult Video Awards Show in Las Vegas around 1999.
Saw them in a small club in the late 80s. It was great but shoulda been in in at least been in an amphitheater.
I always thought Fee sang this song.
What an amazing surprise to find out what a great voice Bill Spooner had.
Spooner also sang, Slipped My Disco, Pimp, Only The Strong Survive, Up from the Deep, One Good Reason, All great songs...
I Love all Spooners songs! Sad they cut him out of the band later on.
I thought same..Was Fee Spooners a great singer to!
And this is not the easiest song to sing. Damn!
Well...he has sang it since Spooner left the band 30 years ago...
When I saw them back in 2007 in Annapolis Md, the keyboardist started playing the intro while Fee started Talking About People He Had Lost In his life, & went right into a Powerful Speech about that a talented man that wrote this song (God I wish that I Could Remember the exact words that Fee used). And how he selfishly took his life. He was Angry but gave Vince His Dues & Wished that he was here Today. Anyone who knows a Foster Freeze Production can tell he worked on Arrangements and such, and I’m sure if everyone says it was was a Welnick/Foster Song, I’d believe that. But anyways it was a moving dedication, with Fee Admitting that he was Pissed at Vince for years for taking away Real Talent from this world.
But with me knowing a Great Deal about Depression, when we are at the end of Our Rope, we don’t think about what we are leaving behind. Sometimes we don’t think that there are Anybody to leave something behind to. They don’t know, Shit We don’t even know what’s going on within Our Own Minds
If you are feeling Suicidal , please Reach Out to someone :(
What an amazing singer on an amazing tune .
My good friend Bill....Every time I watch this video I get chills up and down my spine... Such a great song!
Best!
This is the best 'ballad' of the 80s. Mr. Spooner is a truly great song writer and a truly great singer.
One of the best bands and so underestimated that you need to ask yourself why some mediocre incompetent singers sell millions of records.
I've watched this video over and over for years. It's such a great song and Bill is the absolute epitome of a "rock star" in this live video!
As opposed to the video where he looks like a middle-aged banker
priceless a real tubes performance by their natural band leader
I love this track. I only wish there was less echo on Bill's mic. It takes away from a great performance, imho.
That's exactly what I immediately noticed as well. That slapback echo is completely the wrong effect for this song.
The delay is at the wrong speed for the track,,but check out his soulful guitar solo,,talented guy !
What, it's not that bad- oh god.
It also somehow adds something. Something dramatic.
Id happily pay a kings ransom for a ticket if ever Bill got back with the Tubes and they played live! With him they had 2 virtuoso guitarists Bill & Roger, 2 great singers Bill & Fee fronting one of the worlds greatest bands ever ! Even though I live in the UK I am lucky enough to have seen them live 3 times since the late 80's.
I love this song❤️
Saw them in 1983 at a small club in woodland hills Ca. Spooner is my hero, What a great song and a great performance.
Saw this tour Boston July 1983. Bills voice nailed it there too. Their music surpasses all other bands of US, except maybe classic Kansas. The Tubes truly were Art- or Progressive Rock.
Tubes underrated really !They diverse comedy ballads rock etc..way underrated song this,
Excellent talented band! Loved this song from the first time I heard it, many years ago
THIS WAS AN AMAZING TRACK! SADLY, DID NOT GET THE AIRPLAY IT DESERVED
Saw them when I was a freshman in High school .......memories
Remember listening to this album, with my mates dave and brian, with a nice bigs pliff, it just blew our minds, one of my top10 fav albums. And the Video was even better,
Probably one of the most innovative bands in the world. I absolutely love this band..!! From ballads to funk..they are genius !! Fee Waybill at the core.. 9/10/2021..I am still listening a lot..!!!!
This is my favorite Tubes tune. Early 80s or so the wife and I saw the Tubes in Oxford Ohio Miami University. There were only 100 or so in attendance but the band played their hearts out.
BELLEFONTAINE here. I seen them in 79 at Vet's Memorial Columbus.
Mega Talent! Defines intensity of performance! Well done!
Wow! Bills vocals were incredible especially the end!
Great song!! He does a fantastic job!! Great vocals!!
I love the TUBES! So glad I got to see them many times. Very talented band!
Watched the TUBES last night in Edinburgh and they blew the crowd away,!! fantastic gig and they spent a lot of time at a meet n greet, cant wait till they come back.
The best concert of the tubes ever! I was there 🤗 Sadly the german TV-Station broadcastet only 20 Minutes of the show (but they recorded it all ... hope for more?)
Still watching 😂still brilliant 👍✌️if they travelled back 2 Newcastle and this time played would walk there 2 see them 😍🇬🇧no ban necessary 💰😳🤗😂thank you the tubes ✊️🤝⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤝
Still blast the Tubes on my stereo in my truck.....
Grand composition, grand performance.
These guys were one of the Best Shows we Ever saw. We saw Everyone because of where we lived and these guys blew everyone else off the stage !
Heard this on the radio yesterday and it blew me away. Powerful song and great performance.
Not here, but THE
TUBES always put on spectacular shows... ---they
actually would get on stage and hold live, dramatic performances! With
huge canvas screens like in the hippie light shows. One such place was
the Kabuchi Theatre in San Francisco. Memorable. Totally as if it were
yesterday. Singing "yesterday, love was such an easy game to play..."
@celclia Blackstone...would have loved to watch the shows...as you did....I know what you're saying, 'cause I watched 2 shows...but from the TV only...and that took me by storm! Crazy and wonderful...the girls..the band dressed out in the most crazy way...oh f...., we don't see that anymore... ;-/
(And it's from one of these shows I've uploaded this song....)
I still got the shows on the old vhs-tapes...now I just need to find the video-player and kabel...and in between there's 20 mill. other things to do...it's a damn shame, we must take care of these good and wonderful moments.
Treasure them....'cause what the world has to give us today, is mostly emptyness, covered in Kardasian-cream and useless glamour, but
how were we to know, how it all would turn out to be...yes...?!...Here's a flower to you, wishing you a wonderful day..🌹👍
@@ameCaline07 yes, we could appreciate that which we had, not in division of past, present or future time, but in how these three are timeless and beautiful. Inside our memories, we can allow them all infinity. What we love is always eternal.
Have the entire Tubes catalog, this is the best vocal
Incredible song
Outstanding !.. Goes strait in to my soul !.. A masterpiece !
Composed by the late keyboardist Vince Welnick... it is a masterpiece.
Hell yes it's❤
Epic song from the soul.
Words don't really describe the profundity of this song.
The missing link.. to the real tubes.. never can be the same... Fee can't sing it the same. but man the memories
Bill Spooner was the the Tubes, When he left they never recovered
true.
Cocaine is a bad drug.
Had a lot to do with Sputniks departure from The Tubes Dukie boy. Don't get me wrong brother, I loved Bill Spooner and still do. He was one of my idle's growing up. Cocaine didn't help my musical career either. It is a bad drug. And how can you call me an asshole, you don't even know me. I will say a prayer for you tonight.
Maybe so. But that didn't keep four of the originals from playing together right up to the present. More of a fun thing for them to do together. Their original sound and presentation was too much for the boring ass radio play of the disco '70s. I lived that era. That original lineup and their act was as good as any I've ever seen over a long life of music, concerts and bands. Sad that they didn't make it big.
Never heard about Him since..
Day-yumm boy!! You got it going on!
he always did ..
Love Bill Spooner's vocal on this song.
I saw the them on their first tour back in 1974 or 1975. The next time I saw them, Bill looked a little rough. He stated that he quit the band so he wouldn't die. He probably did the right thing. I thank him for his contributions.
It's not fair 2 say they never made it ? I know I would say they did even if there was times they were banned from playing live on the tv ? Plenty of my mates liked what they did ,another underrated band is true ! Have you noticed there's never been any band 2 replace them ? Would be a hell of a job 2 carry that out ? Love this song and many more that makes my memories worth the time and effort 2 play the tubes on you tube 😜😘😂🙏👍
Bill taught a group of us sound engineering/ music production in the Tubes loft space in the mission district of SF. I was going to ask him if it was cool to spark a doob when all of a sudden Bill lit one up. For a teacher, Bill sure had class !
A Doobie" In Class. Oh well, "Bill the great then". No, he should 've got credit and praise for all his great songs, hey yah!
What a great song and voice. Not to mention the guitar.
They didn't get the respect they deserved and John Fee Waybill didn't get the respect he deserved for his singing!!
Bill kills this song !!!!!
...funny..but rooted...bill kept the soul intact with the tubes..one of music's most sincere players..in one of rocks greatest bands..
That is the awesome Bill Spooner! huge influence on my playing ♫
this performance has something dramatic and sensitive to it. beautiful song!
Great tune, lp and band. Saw them that summer
Ewig nicht mehr gehört! In der Tat ein starkes Gesangsriff...!!!
Wow! Now that's rock and roll!
Obviously the tubes real lead singer.
I Had to make love to survive? I just can't wait for Arctic survival love again…..I mean don't want to wait for the German beer back over there in AntarcticaI love Bill Spooner's music, and that great performance of his "Don't Want to Wait Anymore." It goes through my little Penguin head all the time. Good song Bill Spooner. Thanks
Yes underrated, but real genuine musicians
Wow, Bill Spooner worked up that mullet like a boss!
.. He doesn't have that mullet today.. LOL
@@ausfuhrpramienjagar people over 40 should not be sporting mullets, lol!
My old friend. Brilliant.
This is just NICE
yes, live is real, very good, very
The Tubes might do Broadway!! I hope it happens for them. Amazing band, still going. Fee says it's the Korean ginseng.
Love Bill!
i met the tubes in San Ramon, all kool guys, Fee didnt say a word all night!! But i really would have liked to have met Spooner, so underateded.
Ich weiß noch, wie ich das damals gesehen habe … Die Tubes sind geil!
Absolut! In den 80ern für mich einer der besten Rock-Bands! Sie hätten mehr Erfolg verdient gehabt!! Sie hätten nach "Love Bomb" direkt weiter machen müssen....
Honestly, today when listening, I think it was different when uplading, ....after uploading.
Few years later UA-cam made an update, a new arrangement to our sites...and I think it changed the video..the size, first of all, but the sound had changed, as well.
If I had the time I would like to make another upload (I still got the song on old vhs-tape....picture and sound was better..and not so much echo either...I will do it one fine day..yep! ✌💗
i love this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2:10 Killer smile!
It always amazes me how similar Bill and Fee's voices sound.
Spooner was perfect for this song. Yes, David Foster wrote this but this was not a Foster Chicago song with the overloaded keyboards and melodic vocals. This had a nice strong vocal, strong drums, strong guitar. Chicago kills this song off. The Tubes made it more rock.
It was Bill, Vince Welnick and David Foster who wrote this cool ballad. All three of them made it happen.
Original version was written by Spooner and Vince Welnik.Fee rewrote most of the lyrics and Foster added the bridge(rain section)
damn i wish this was around 25yrs ago🤘🏼
THE TUBES! Underrated....😢
Not Fair...😕
Bill Spooner Rules! Used to smoke cigs with him on a fire escape in SF after class.
guitar solo is awesome........
The tupes.. live is.great
Sputnik was on point with this song. The Tubes were big time underrated. With that, Bill looks like he'd have a rough last 24 hours. I think I heard him say once he left the Tubes before he died.
Bill is alive
@@brianmccain6302 .. I hope so. Because I talk to him every now and then.. 🙂
Powerful beautiful poignant
Grandissimo Bill!
He sings it so easily......and then he starts to play guitar.....
Happy Birthday Sputnik
Such sound.
I saw the very crazy rock and roll cabaret that was the Tubes in 78 or 79 in Philly at the TLA.
My beloved only ever saw the MTV Tubes, and couldn't figure out my unabashed fandome.
Oh man, he looks like a young Elvis!😀
18 / 19 yrs - fond mem's
Saw this show at Hammersmith
Just great
beautiful song Fee's background vocals make it though
studio version entered Billboard June 20, 1981.. reached #35
OH YEAH MANE THE GROUPIES WOULD HAVE BEEN PANTING--FLATOUT -- ALMOST SCREAMING.. HEY WHAT?
"I like your beer!" and the audience came alive!
Yes. I'm born and live in Germany. It could be the best FX to use for guitar players since decades: "Beer" or "Pils". You don't play better, but it seems so... PS: it was a Joke. In fact is every drunken played Gig not so good as it could be.
Sign him up.
