Nice! He doesn't go into falsetto on the chorus, and that's relentless sustained singing up high. Sounds older, but man, for 73 (?) that's incredible singing (and great playing, too). Bravo, guys!
Love the Zombies! "She's Not There" is one of the greatest written songs from the fabulous 60's. The play that goes on between major & minor chords in that song was way ahead of it's time.
Fantastic band , they were part of the soundtrack of the 60s, including to guys who served in Vietnam. And that fantastic hammond organ, you cant beat it.
OMG...that song came out 55 years ago (1964) These guys can still play it close to the orig.? Amazing ! Great job guys. Who new Zombies could have such a great lifespan ;-)
Probably one of the 10 greatest songs of the Rock era. First time I heard it I had to stop what I was doing and just listen. It had the same impact as "I Want to Hold Your Hand"... and that's saying something.
I loved 'em too. I was about eight when it came out. My sister adored Frankie Avalon and Bobby Darin. Me? I was for the stuff with a bluesy feel and a strong bass line.
This band was one of my first loves. It seemed that every time I turned on the radio, I heard the Zombies within five songs. They were are are THAT good. Ms Hoff’s words were heartfelt and spot on.
Probably the oldest British band still playing with their main founding members (Rod Argent & Colin Blunstone plus Hugh Grundy). Formed in 1961, a year before the Stones.
Rod Argent is one amazingly brilliant keyboardist! I love his contributions on “She’s Not There”, and throughout “Odessey & Oracle”. For example, what he did with Mellotron on “Care of Cell 44” is one of the most moving (to me) songs, and provides a standard of why that instrument is so powerful. Same with “Hung Up on A Dream”. As for his Hammond works, his solos are always - and still - fantastic...!
I don't usually notice such things, but they were dressed both cool (and appropriately for a bunch of old guys), and they sound better than they used to in the '60's, especially Colin Blunstone.
I watched an interview and Colin had vocal lessons after the song became a hit. They credit the longevity of his voice to learning proper technique and doing exercises.
I seen them do this approx 8 years ago in Belfast. They were great, but must say this version and understandably so is better so due to the occasion obviously and the support. Always a big fan of Colin Blunstone as well as Rod back in his Argent days. Colin Blunstone has a magnificent unique voice
Imagine if Paul was still living! They would’ve pretty much the only group from the 60s with everyone left! They would be killing it! Still killing it here though.
It's as though I'm sitting in my 1966 Mustang, Suzie Cream Cheese next to me and we are on our way to the beach....California Beach! Dayuum....these guys still have the voices and the timing! What a treat for an old guy!!! Now if I could only find Suzie CC
I love this so much. It reminds me of driving home from a family party with my folks and 5 older siblings and getting a rare to stop for custard in the 60’s.
Nancy... You are killing me right now..60's ice cream tasted. so much better..I worked at. House of HiFi in Trenton and right across the street was. CARVEL ..Every day after lunch ate a whole Pint. !!! Never got fat back then...Now ???
These guys look and sound great! The song was originally recorded in June 1964, 55 years prior to their induction in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Unfortunately, she is still not there. Maybe she moved to Texas.
We saw them a couple of months ago in South Wales -- absolutely brilliant. Blunstone's voice is amazing. We would go to see them again tomorrow if they were appearing within 200 miles of our home.
I honestly can only feel admired, these guys still rock amazingly with their age, I mean specially the singer and the keyboardist, that speed is actually super high 😮
Excellent vocal technique. I wish other singers of their generation, like Robert Plant took care of their vocal chords as Colin. Of course he doesn't have the same timber as his younger years, but he changed his original chest singing to a much more controled head/chest mixed singing. That's why he's always able the hit the high notes.
When you have a thing called talent, it never leaves you. It lasts forever. The original from '64 and this from 2019. I'm 68 and I remember when it first came out. A timeless classic.
Wow!! They sound Awsome and that bical is so strong!! Their harmonies are still fantastic and each member is absolutely amazing still. Excellent job guys!! Loved it totally.
I played in a couple of local bands in the late 60's.Top 40's stuff . Their music was so unique . They where one of my top 4 favourite bands back then and still are today.
amazing grace! one of my favorite bands! wonderful melody, vocals, keyboards, life giving!!!! Why now only???? nothing is too late! there's always reason for everything! Not to be recognized requires patience, perseverance and love. God bless you all.
god damn it's crazy to see they still have it in them and the gear switch to modern instruments, always a great song from a astoundingly talented band 60's or now
Aloha,from 14 to 62 yrs. of age,II will always be in awe of you,Mr. Cullin. Am very glad that we actually met at Max’s Kansas City awhile back when you performed an amazing solo gig. Luv u mate💕🌈🌻🎹🎤🥁🌎☮️🎵🐾
John i wish my twin sister and i could have sung the harmonies with these splendid guys ,,We would have blended in rather nicely lol xx long live the 60s lol
Wow! It's inspring to see our senior folk give such strong performances especially when they are better than others who are decades younger. I vote that if a band can't do a good performance that they should pick a younger or more able group to go to bat for them.
I saw them maybe eight years ago -- anyway about a year after they re-formed and started touring-- not really knowing what to expect, and ... OMG. That turned out to be one of my favorite concerts of all time. It helped that it was a small outdoor venue and we were able to stand & sometimes dance RIGHT IN FRONT of the stage, only maybe 5-10 feet from the band. p.s. the craziest thing is that we got into the concert for $6 each. Yes, within the last decade, and for The Zombies!
O I have been listening to this song since I was a little boy and I fell in love with it 💕the band playing this 55 years from the time they played it in the start os amazing
They're performing this 55 years after they originally recorded/performed it. That's astounding.
They'll be performing it 150 years after the end of their lives in a time where they can why not .
Greg this song is bad *** in a very good way
LOVE THIS ♥️ !!!!
Totally impressive 👏
They must be almost pushing 80!
Nice! He doesn't go into falsetto on the chorus, and that's relentless sustained singing up high. Sounds older, but man, for 73 (?) that's incredible singing (and great playing, too). Bravo, guys!
Thinking the same thing
Same key!
good catch, I thought the same, but sometimes it's challenging sing falsetto live as it can be very quiet.
@@katemae61 Yes, most are singing a full tone down 50yrs later.
Love the Zombies! "She's Not There" is one of the greatest written songs from the fabulous 60's. The play that goes on between major & minor chords in that song was way ahead of it's time.
Colin still belting out solid vocals. A truly great band.
One of the best in my opinion
And still in it's original key.
His voice has aged but he still has incredible range, it's a wonder to listen to!
No other band sounds like The Zombies. Their sound is unique.
Well is that's just the truth :) best band ever
Still the same high notes..
I'm so happy they're all still with us besides Paul rest in peace Paul atkinson
They definitely sound different than other bands of that Era !!! They are a little jazzy and a little soft !! 👍💜☮️
@@nessjustness2691 not the best band ever but def one of the greatest and highly underrated
One of the great bands of the British Invasion of the 1960's.
Please. There isn't a lot of substance.
@@jnagarya519 It wasn't about substance, what is?, it was about fun.
@@jnagarya519 Substance in pop culture? Are you on drugs??
@@felixt1470 more like a high horse. Emo or some such
@@felixt1470 ... Yeah he is. . unfortunately...it is Prozac...which makes sense. .*
Fantastic band , they were part of the soundtrack of the 60s, including to guys who served in Vietnam. And that fantastic hammond organ, you cant beat it.
🎶💙Zombies & The Young Rascals were my groups as a teen.💙🎶
Love that soft voice....still has it after all those years. Great song; always loved it. A very underrated band. Bless them.
Excellent performance, and one of the best Western pop songs of 1964.
OMG...that song came out 55 years ago (1964) These guys can still play it close to the orig.? Amazing ! Great job guys. Who new Zombies could have such a great lifespan ;-)
Lol
Wow, I was four years old.
@@karenbannister2300 There was a critic who called them the greatest rock band of their era not fronted by Mick Jagger. Absolutely!
One of my favorite voices of all time! Nobody else sounds like Colin. He’s a really nice guy, too. I’ve had the pleasure of working with him.
It's actually disgusting how long it took for the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame to induct The Zombies.
Yes, but they got there!
I agree !
Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame is pathetic. How many Rappers made it in before these guys?
Yes, and now it is The Guess Who's long overdue turn.
@@garysabo2181 yep
These guys are still amazing! Giants of British music that deserved much more recognition.
first time a singer got better with age. the notes he reaches are incredible.
What the hell were you listening to?
@@anthonybucci2775. Get your hearing checked. These guys rocked that song. It’s never sounded better.
Probably one of the 10 greatest songs of the Rock era. First time I heard it I had to stop what I was doing and just listen. It had the same impact as "I Want to Hold Your Hand"... and that's saying something.
yeah me too . I was just a kid but my older sisters were teenagers and listening to rock around the house.
To put it in perspective it came out the same year as I Want to Hold Your Hand and She Loves You.
@@bigmonmagoomba9634It actually came out 2 years later
Rod Argent , what a grate keybord player !!!!
Masters of writing, composition, storytelling, and performance!
Oh, gosh, I just adored them!!! I was 11. They still give me goosebumps!❤
I was 5 when I first heard them💕
@@nancymesek ...You were young and impressionable. And HAPPY.
I loved 'em too. I was about eight when it came out. My sister adored Frankie Avalon and Bobby Darin. Me? I was for the stuff with a bluesy feel and a strong bass line.
I was 5 too..!!!😆🇺🇸
I like the way they work "Gimme Some Lovin'" in there. Zombies rock!
@Alex Elliott ..and effortlessly which some audience members surely missed.........LOL...
of course that normal people did not notice that was a Winwood best riff he did !!
Unfairly overlooked for so long, a real quality band, great to see them play live at this event, Long Live The Zombies.
This band was one of my first loves. It seemed that every time I turned on the radio, I heard the Zombies within five songs. They were are are THAT good. Ms Hoff’s words were heartfelt and spot on.
universal principle: Rock and roll keeps people young.
The Doors before the Doors. Inspirational sounds especially synthesizers.
100% agree. It's like, "What if the Doors storytelling came from a more psychologically well-adjusted place."
They aren't using synthesizers, the first synthesizer was being built at Columbia by moog. He is playing a Hammond organ.
Rod argent man. Amazing at keys
Yes he is!! I would love to hear him play jazz- I know he would sound great, and KILL IT☺
Achan... His solo on. Time of the Season is Real Kick Ass ..! on this Hall of Fame show.
Probably the oldest British band still playing with their main founding members (Rod Argent & Colin Blunstone plus Hugh Grundy). Formed in 1961, a year before the Stones.
In 1965 it was 20 years ahead of anything else!
Never, never will I forget my London of the sixties!

Still remember the words to their great songs!! Glad they Finally got the recognition they so deserve!!❤
They actually killed it great performance
How do they all still look charming and handsome to this day and still sound fucking amazing god damn
Hugh has a sly sense of humor too
I still have this single. One of my favorites from the 60's
I don't usually notice such things, but they were dressed both cool (and appropriately for a bunch of old guys), and they sound better than they used to in the '60's, especially Colin Blunstone.

@@WayneKitching Definitely heard some more classical vocal technique during the chorus. As a classically trained Dramatic Tenor, I approve.

I get goose bumps listening to these guys performing this 1960's classic 55 years after they recorded it. It's unreal
One of the great bands

Judith Durham and The Seekers have that category covered!
@@bookman1949 How about the Rolling Stones?
@@danielgrossman4370 That's true, minus Brian Jones, but they have been going strong without him since the 60s
@@danielgrossman4370 Bill Wyman?
@@suncookrocks Bill Wyman's still alive, I think he's 83 or 84 though
these guys are still utter magic ,,,i have adored them since their beginning ,its so lovely to see them again ,,,Wow genius blokes lol xx
I love this Song.....Had no ideal it was that decade!.... CLASSIC TUNES NEVER GO OUT OF TOUCH!
Wowowowow! I guess that is still Rod Argent on keys!
I wonder how many people know that Rod Argent had a band in the early 70's called "Argent", which had a well known hit called "Hold your head up".
Loved that song, too.
🙋♀️
I don't know the exact number but I think a lot of people knew that!
Great album. I had it.
Bet you didn't know Chris white was in argent as well
Love the Zombies! So very glad they are in the Rock Hall, that induction was long overdue.
It's as though I'm sitting in my 1966 Mustang, Suzie Cream Cheese next to me and we are on our way to the beach....California Beach! Dayuum....these guys still have the voices and the timing! What a treat for an old guy!!! Now if I could only find Suzie CC
WOW THER VOICES ARE THERE AND THEIR MUSIC TOO, I AM HISPANIC BUT I LOVE THIS MUSIC- THE ZOMBIES
I love this so much.
It reminds me of driving home from a family party with my folks and 5 older siblings and getting a rare to stop for custard in the 60’s.

Or to Brooklyn...where they are playjng this for. RRHOF....Not in Cleveland .
@@michaelcelani8325 🤣
More likely at the time was that she left England for the south of France.
She's not here either. I looked.
They are still as good. What a group of talented, beautiful men.
We saw them a couple of months ago in South Wales -- absolutely brilliant. Blunstone's voice is amazing. We would go to see them again tomorrow if they were appearing within 200 miles of our home.
I honestly can only feel admired, these guys still rock amazingly with their age, I mean specially the singer and the keyboardist, that speed is actually super high 😮

I remember this song when it first came out at 11 years old and am grateful to hear it again today.
Just an amazing song. The Zombies with one of the best sounds of any decade.
Great song, great voice & one of the great bands of the 60's
One word - QUALITY!
My high school band (class of '66) did a few of their songs. My favorite was "Leave Me Be." I saw them live in 2019!
Wow, just unreal. Such an influential song. Keyboard heavy, soundtrack of the 60s.
Better than the original. More intense. More passion. That's what comes with age.
Wow!! They sound Awsome and that bical is so strong!! Their harmonies are still fantastic and each member is absolutely amazing still. Excellent job guys!! Loved it totally.
I saw them sing this outside of RRHOF and they were just as good outside as they were inside!

BRAVO!!! 70+ and still going rocking. With Quality...
Glad to see they can still Rock!!!
Love to see them having a great time.
Love this. I've been going through my old records recently and realised I have more Rod Argent than I remembered and I have a Colin Blundstone album.
One of the most underated bands ever.
THEY KILLED IT
The song so good it take x2 drummers to do it. Forever cool!
They really have stood the test of time. Fantastic.
A half-century of trying and I still can't sing along with this amazing harmony.
John i wish my twin sister and i could have sung the harmonies with these splendid guys ,,We would have blended in rather nicely lol xx long live the 60s lol
No kidding,😄
Great song. Excellent performance, they still can do it.
Grundy, White, Argent and Blunstone. Only missing one!
Paul 🥀
Paul Atkinson died back in '04. ☹️
The feel of this song is just so gripping.............a great one!!

Unlike many of the inducted acts, they had rehearsed to perfection.
Incredible songs and performance
standing ovation, damn right !!!
For 77, Chris White hasn't lost his touch either
Rod Argent could spank that Hammond B-3 organ. Guitar Man.

One of the greats and very deserving of the Hall.
I wasnt born... why none told me that they exist? i had to discover on my own! some groups HAVE to be teached to the new generations!
Outstanding. Transported me back to early 70’s, am car radio, windows down, no AC, driving to the beach.
Brilliant, one of the best songs of the 60s.
History in the making. Wished I was there.
