Slowdive is simply one of the greatest bands in music history. How a band could return after a 22-year absence and make an album as great as anything they've done, is so unfathomable and triumphant-it's nothing short of a miracle. What a gorgeous song!
My Bloody Valentine did exactly the same too somehow. Two decades to recharge the batteries... Autolux released 3 albums over their 20 years together... I guess good music takes time to brew.
@@elemkay5104 - Slowdive had their career cruelly cut short by fickle music listeners, critics, and quickly abandoned by their label, leaving their releases to collect dust in bargain bins for many years. My Bloody Valentine never suffered nor fell out of favor with music listeners, ever. For Slowdive to make their comeback took great courage and fortitude.
How convenient of you to forget NKOTB in that sweeping statement.
@@danieljamesmead You got me to search NKOTB.
Algorithm sabotage. Well played.
Truly amazing album
I still can't believe Slowdive returned after so many years and made a kick ass album. That shit just doesn't typically happen.
I never thought that the 2017 album was amazingly good. It surpassed my expectations
new one on the horizon too
this what i thought, best come back album
indeed, what a stunning album to return with. i tear up when i think about how gorgeous the release is. looking forward to their next album. thank you slowdive for not giving up, you have something very special going on
Thy really were a god send as is Christians Beachyhead project and the future 2021 Slowdive new new L P.
The intro is a masterpiece itself.
It doesn't even sound like that on the album!
The ending is far better than the album too.
The intro to "Underworld Live Roskilde Festival 1996 29/6" sounds like this intro too, but heavily distorted
... and so is that ending!
When I listen to that I think about the sharing a bed with someone you love at winter, cuddle limitelessly at the early dawn half foggy and half orange at the golden hour in the morning
this song saved me when i was at my lowest.
I have to strongly agree 👍🏼
Saving me right now on this day
The recording team for KEXP should start a production company that produces and records live performances!
They're doing live performances and kexp is in a way a production company. I love them how they are. It's their thing
I just discovered this around 72 hours ago, never knew it existed. I can't describe how this makes me feel.
I recommend listening to the entire album Slowdive (2017). This might be the best one on the record but there are some other great tunes on it.
@@Vagabond-Cosmique Naming a few.. Sugar for the pill, Slowdive(EP), No longer making time, Catch the breeze.... some of my favs
One of the most beautiful songs I’ve heard for sure
Uh....uhuhhuh, huhuh........
This video needs more haters, yeah. And 🔥.
This version is even better than the studio version.
Totally agree! KEXP should record this somehow...
It's markedly slower.
Simply wonderful...
I have replaced original/studio version with this on self titled...
100% agree. This has become the definitive version for me now
Makes me wonder if we even deserve something as beautiful as this.
"We need beauty because it makes us ache to be worthy of it." - Mary Oliver
We do.
There are songs that provoke me to wonder exactly that.
@@muhxbuff Had the same feeling/question when I heard "River Man" by Nick Drake for the first time...
@@shrimpu I’ll listen. I’ve only one of his songs downloaded
5:54 Halstead's expressions seems like either he went through an emotional override by that point or he's feeling something when Rachel's voice kicks in.
after 3 long years i can't escape from this song. I'm involved in its sadness and melancholy.
slowdive has something so spiritual to them , i love them so much
I feel the same
You'll find that a lot in dream pop
I have to agree , It just hits you in the feels , it makes every moment perfect & makes everything feel right
Still can't believe that I saw them live 12 days ago. Slomo has been the first song and I literally cried my heart out ❤
i've never heard a kexp performance as incredibly beautiful as this one. slowdive never ceases to amaze me
The war on drugs
This song is a masterpiece, and the live version is better than the album. Can't begin to describe how much I love this song (and album) and how much its helped me over the past few years.
one of the greatest bands in music history
Indeed
agreed
Okay I owe you this one, UA-cam algorithm.
Can we @UA-cam Algorithm here? I know it's a username lol
I discovered this song live after not ever knowing who they were. This was their first song and the molly had just kicked in. It was incredible.
Close the eyes,breath and hear Slowdive. I am in heaven
This is what parts of heaven sound like, enchanting but harmless....
❤❤❤
Give me your love, it's a curious love
Give me your heart, it's a curious thing
Our lady of the shipwreck is
Running thru the storm
Her skirts blown back, hands to the fore
My love and I go
It's a curious woe
Like dreamers at dawn
Awake but not yet
You give me your heart
It's a curious thing
Give me your love
It's a curious love
It burns and it slides
It's a curious ride
Give me your heart, yeah
Give me your heart
My love and I go
It's a curious woe
We're younger than clouds, younger than clouds
It burns and it slides
It's a curious ride
Give me your heart, yeah
Give me your heart
cannot believe they returned and made an album arguably as good if not better than their past material. I'm still mindblown at this masterpiece years later.
Rachel Goswell's synthesizer work on this recording outdid the album version. Nice and moody. Wonderful performance by an extremely gifted group of musicians.
Agree. Nothing sounds like a Roland Juno - such a timeless warm organic analog synth sound.
Juno 106
Sublime 💓
Agreed. Actually, though, Goswell only sang on the album. Neil Halsted did the Synth and programmed drums over the live stuff as well.
Pura verdade !!!!! .
Goddamn, every time I watch a KEXP live performance video I think they have the best sound engineers on the planet.
This version is perfect, makes me feel goosebumps... only a few songs have that feeling.
literally might be the best song ever
My go to band for complete serenity and music immersion of the beautiful expression of the instrumental merging with the voices snaps me out of pain, irritation, grief, panic attacks, PTSD, or anxiety. I feel stronger and relaxed and ready to face my feelings after a listen. Plus, I just enjoy their chill music. They are fantastic. I love them so.
Yes, same here, I get you.
Can’t explain how much this song hits my soul ❤️🔥
Beautiful music! Slowdive's vibe is so dreamy...
I'm so thankful to God that I stumbled and found this legendary band and its genre its like I found a piece of my soul just by listening to their masterpiece always giving me goosebumps. God bless this band and thank you for all your hardwork May God bless you guys more success and good health.
I feel you soooo much 🙏
This is a true miracle
A couple of years ago I went to see them live. This song came on and it was just perfect. I went by myself and at one point I told the dude next to me that if I was dreaming and I'd want this to be the soundtrack music. Without skipping a beat the dude responded with , "How do you know you're not dreaming right now?" I instantly melted on to the floor into other realities.
I love how they move to their music while playing
uggh this song is so beautiful in so many ways, definitely in my top 3 favorite slowdive songs with alison and dagger
This is mixed so freaking well. Sounds amazing. Great job Kevin Suggs.
Sounds great. Is it in some kind of high definition?
@Digital Awesome :)
@@arloharnish This is what good mixing sounds like. It's really astounding how many great and widely successful muscians use sub par mixing at their live shows.
Star Roving in particular sounds muddy on the record compared to the KEXP mix.
2023. Still gleefully enjoying every second of this masterpiece and so excited to hear the new album!
Incredible live sound
i need a 12hour version of this track
For my funeral please
Simply magical. I had NO idea these guys have been around since the 80's!!!!
slowdive are a gift from heaven
I think I found heaven and it’s name is Slomo
I love the sound of that snare
That sassy-smooth ride cymbal though....
the whole kit
My daily fix of peace and harmony. Thank you!
I thought their new album was great, really captured the vibe of their old stuff but with a bit of a modern spin.
I completely agree. There have been so many bands that went on a long hiatus over the years and whenever they came back, most of them seemed to want to go in a completely different direction. So refreshing to have a band stay true to their sound with just enough of a twist to make their sound more current and contemporary. An incredibly hard thing to do and a sign of genius and remarkable musical craftsmanship. Kudos to you Slowdive.
exactly
The sound engineers a genius!
All of them are deep into the music, enjoying themselves. Super record!
This song is a cure for my soul
This song is so beautiful. Keep making music slowdive!!
unreal music
what it mean ?
Explain please
Maxim Duboyskiy surreal
ethereal
I can't stop listening. Nor shedding tears of inspiration and letting go.
This is phenomenal.
thank you KEXP and the amazing Slowdive Band. you guys really lived this life.
Seriously how is this live version SOOOOO glorious!? You guys are absolutely incredible! I am so excited for your next album!
I'm crying... a lot...
It's such a masterpiece...
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Absolutely divine! I already was in love with the album version of this track. This rendition just takes it to another level.
Holy , the drummer !!!
Had never listened to Slowdive before, this was beautiful
As smooth as silk! What a masterpiece of music!
the intro is so insane it make me feel like I'm in heaven for a while
Such a brilliant soundtrack for this overthink night caused by the pendemic...
🇮🇩
The Kings of Shoegaze. Epic.
Guys I can not believe what I heard tonight... You are so amazing. Thanx for the life and have the opportunity to hear you. Thank you guys. You literally made me cry of this masterpiece...
Beautiful! And better than the album version, especially bescause of the extended outro.
This song have a intensity sublime. ♥
Amazing. Neil's guitar at 1:16 is awesome, love how it sounds, anyone?
This song is so delicate.
please keep making new music, Slowdive!
Oh my God, these guitars are a slowdive trademark, Just Beautifull, ethereal and blissfull 👏🏻
the live version is on another level
the emotions that arise as I listen closely... thank you Slowdive
I crank this up early in the morning for the neighbors!
Sou fã da banda, pois adoro a sonoridade de suas músicas.
This is perfection
Best song in the history of music.
Por cada melodía en esta canción, se eriza cada milímetro de mi existencia entera ... que buen aire para respirar y saberse vivo. Gracias!
Tengo mucho aprecio a Slowdive pues siempre me ha acompañado a hacer que mis sueños se conviertan en deseos y éstos, en cierta manera, con sacrificio, se hicieran realidad. Desde entonces, sigo siendo un soñador, porque la vida debe ser sueño, y Slowdive hace música para soñadores incansables.
Si pero te consejo que no escuches a slowdive si te encuentras en momentos dificiles de tu vida, te dara paz si... pero hara que tu sensibilidad suba de nivel y te desgarrara por dentro los sonidos melodicos y melancolicos de slowdive, Estas canciones son un extasis auditivo cuando te encuentras bien contigo mismo(a) y los seres que te rodean.

@The_Realistic_Man no importa, cuando yo estuve en depresión lo que hacía era escuchar a Radiohead y ellos tienen canciones súper depresivas
Slowdive es el hogar de mis emociones
@@witko7239 Gracias por el consejo, pero mi nivel de sensibilidad siempre está muy alto y jamás una canción me ha desgarrado, todo lo contrario, la música siempre ha sido mi gran compañera, con la que he soñado, he pensado, me he inspirado, me he alegrado y también me he entristecido. Más bien son algunas personas y hechos graves de la vida que te pueden afectar y que hay que afrontar y superar. Es la vida!
Few songs make me feel what this one do
sonically flaw free
this is love.
This is perfect
I love Slowdive so much! ❤️
THEY GOT THE SECRET SAUCE
This entire show is amazing!!
I can't wait to cry to this live
Love this song❤️
Absolutely beautiful. Thank you!
beautiful......heartfelt
This is so beautiful, I wanna cry :’)
This is so beautiful
I give this a Million out of ten. Slowdive is amazing.
I love Slowdive.
Such a wonderful song, perfection ❤️❤️
Such a perfect song.
Feels like heaven! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
heavenly music
Soothes my soul, and sends me on a journey....beautiful!!!
my favorite song of all time
You are simply amazing, I love you guys
Awesome song... I love Slowdive
I still watch this beautiful presentation to this day! Thanks KEXP and Slowdive
I Love chilling in my car listening to songs like this!!
I'm so happy to see this! I did not think I would ever hear new. A gift from the gods...........
