Imagine being there and hearing them perform this out of nowhere 😮
Saw them on that same Mezzanine21 Tour, in France. In the crowd I was surrounded by young people and when they started playing that track I recognized it instantly. I screamed "Bela Lugosi's dead" and those kids looked at me like "who's that old fart?". I've been a Bauhaus fan since the early 80's. The Cure's "10.15" was also on the track list, amazing show with Horace Andy and Elizabeth Frazer, and quite a total experience with that mesmerizing video show.
I'm so glad as a young person I've been looking into this kind of music. It started with joy division, and then I discovered this kind of music is exactly what I've been missing in my life
I had the same experience in San Francisco! too funny. I couldn't even believe they started with this song...but recognized it immediately. Never got to see Bauhaus, but was surprised at how dance-y the song can be.
@@lizzyred3677 Nice job on finding Joy Division! Great stuff!
@@lizzyred3677 check out 'India' by the Psychedelic Furs......you'll love it.
Funny i saw them recently in Paris. I’ve never been to a silent crowd like that one, people literally looked like they were forced to be there, just to be cool or something. But actually they weren’t enjoying it. All the visuals looked to them like they were being attacked by Massive’s politically engaged vibe, they felt guilty. Nobody danced, i felt i was in post ww2 in the middle of the collabo nazi regime so weird
What a respectfull cover to Bauhaus...magnificent !!!
I lost my shit when I saw the title - I absolutely love Bauhaus AND Massive Attack. Thank you for posting !
I know was like.....????!!! Too good!!
Same, knew it would be excellent before even hitting play!
My thoughts exactly!
Let me double that comment. Brilliant!
The best of two worlds 💜
Massive Attack covering Bauhaus.... What the fuck!? How have I only just found this?
Seconded!!!
To the Bat Cave
With you
Superb, isn’t it! Check out UNKLE’s No Pain No Gain
Just seen this and thought the same as you!
Fucking love a cover when it's done right and there's nothing wrong here
Omg..,this is incredible
Awesome tune, here. Sounds just like the original. But better.
@@saraenneking4652 I so have to agree!
What a rare treat.
Seems to me to be totally out of synch at the beginning …. hmmm. ….. maybe they should have ironed that out at the rehearsal?
Massive Attack paying a tribute to Bahaus : woaw ..! 🥰🎹👌🎶
Massive attack. What a brilliant bauhaus cover.
Aren't you dead too Pablo? If not, welcome back!
@@davew5167 d.e.a. and f.b.i. and c.i.a. cover up. They make to much £ to kill me.
the guitar riff is Rock n Roll part 1+2 from Gary Glitter...
@@dalakerdaniel9240 if that's right I hate the song already. What was massive attack thinking.?
@@pabloescobar7647 I don't know... maybe too young to know!?! take Joan Jett "do you wanna touch" same thing... just listen and tell me what you think, in my opinion it's "little geirl Gary"
Bauhaus, always imitated but never beaten, that said. Loved this 🧡
And to think that they did cover tracks from other people, Ziggy stardust great cover of a great Bowie song.
I will never forget being 14 when "The Hunger" come out and this song was in the opening scene. I was hooked.
indeed, magical
Loooove that movie when we were young goths back in the day… and of course always love Peter Murphy and Bauhaus. 🦇
People naturally categorize the Bauhaus track as goth music because of its theme and mood but rhythmically it has roots in the extended dub and steppers tracks of Jamaican and British reggae, just like so many Massive Attack records, so this cover makes a lot of sense 😁
It’s a bit krautrock too, and Stooges
There was quite a bit of crossover between post punk and dub back in the day. Y by The Pop Group has some dub influences, too, though they take it in a different route to Bauhaus.
@@jonathanwebb66 ?! You had two names and made a quote with it?!
Indeed. Pil with Jah Wobble were also an influence. Bauhaus were only labelled goths after they split up in 1983. The goth thing was a tacky hype associated with the dreadful Mission and Fields of Nephillim in 1986 onwards. This was my youth. It was never cool to call yourself a goth.
Nah
I've been to a lot of concerts in my life, but Massive Attack put on the best show I've ever seen at this concert.
Great memory to come across this.
The sound of the Radio Music City Hall was absolutely insane. Never experienced anything like it in my life. And I too have seen many shows: Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Police, Black Sabbath, Depeche Mode, Offenbach, Genesis, Peter Gabriel... nothing was like this performance that night. And hopefully, I was there.
Omg!! I saw this posting and was like ..Massive Attack...Bela? Amazing cover....i remember when i went to the movie theater go see The Hunger and that song and Peter Murphy in the opening credits with the Beautiful Deneuve and Bowie.... perfection!
YES
Amazing to think that this was one of the first things Bauhaus wrote. What a start!
I've listened to their other songs, and no offense, none of them come close to the greatness that is this song.
@@numinous123 Admittedly, I think the bulk of their output is a tad weak. Personally, I'd have given up after this one - not going to top it. Even "Kick in the eye" & "She's in parties" - both of which are good - don't compete with this.
@@neildunford241 Lagartija Nick, Third Uncle and Silent Hedges are also great tracks. Agreed that their albums were always more filler than killer!
@@CRZ38L Yep, agreed. L Nick. being my fave of those you've mentioned.
@@CRZ38L Yeah. I started going through their track list, and I have to agree with you. most of it is just filler. They were riding the fame of Bela Lugosi's dead until they couldn't anymore.
Man I wish they would release an official recorded version of this song, along with the actual show. They are incredible live, possibly the most professionally executed show I have ever seen.
this should be here : ua-cam.com/video/geMuYjyj2BI/v-deo.html
Have you seen Depeche Mode live ?
@@michaelholopainen2822 sorry no, I just wanted to help you, I still found that. ua-cam.com/video/x9vFBi6yhso/v-deo.html .... 8:50 it should at 8:50 be,
mores the pity
It’s just a cover
OMG love this song and love Massive attack - I’ve seen Massive attack but wow what a banger and it sounds perfect ❤️👌
Okay, I'm almost convinced to get UA-cam Music. In addition to Spotify goddammit
Massive Attack - 30 years in music, and yet to put a foot wrong. Incredible cover!
Best cover of all time from this old Bauhaus- Classic 🖤👍
i love massive attack and bauhaus, great cover.
When that first bass note emerges - goosebumps from head to toe. Wow. I mean.... ummm... Wow. Massive Attack playing, arguably, Bauhaus' greatest song. Seriously, it easily could've been that dream you want to dream for two days and two nights. Wow.
I conquered the world and this was my soundtrack
If I were in the audience I would've lost my shit. Awesome cover!
Brings my back to my youth...The good part of it. Love from Finland🎸🎸🎸
Proper! So good! Underage, I got into a club in Toronto when I was 18 called Dominos. I danced to this with a giant goth dude much older than me. LIFE CHANGED! God love Bauhaus.
DOMINOS!
I saw the thumbnail and title, and went "WTF?!?"
WOW. Unexpected, brilliant cover.
Thanks for posting. Cheers.
Their version gave me goosebumps. I would love to have been at this show.
Take's me way back to club days leaving the darkness and coming out in the early sunlight.
Exactly 🤜🏼🤛🏼
YES! Such a magical hour. I really did feel like a Creature of the Night.
Listen to the portion of the crowd react to both recognizing the song and just a little later when they are absolutely certain it's a bauhaus cover upon hearing the delay on the drums. Its not a huge number of people but they are all extremely.excited.
I was there! They also played "10:15 Saturday Night" (by the Cure). Just incredible.
That's awesome. They sampled 10:15(...) in Man Next Door on Mezzanine. Bela Lugosi's Dead must've been the inspiration for Rush Minute from Heligoland.
I saw Bauhaus perform this live in 1982 in Liverpool. It was Halloween which was also my 18th birthday!
That's cool! Regards from Carlsbad, California.
Wow, that sounds awesome!
Brady's or the Royal Court?
Somewhere in the audience, Vampire Bowie is very proud.
Well played my friend. I never thought about Ziggy living among us still.
@@dirtydave2691 He was in the movie "The Hunger", and Bowie played a vampire. They played this song during a club/murder scene.
It wasn't written for the 'hunger.. it was a club hit in 82
@@paulf7567 Never said it was written explicitly for the movie "The Hunger". Just that the song was used in the movie, and David Bowie was in it.
@@numinous123 right. Bowie as a vampire, as you said. Love the movie. Have a 35mm video of Bauhaus doing this song in the cage. Just like used in the Hunger. Think has Third Uncle too.
Very excited to find this version! They follow the original note by note and still manage to add to it. Excellent job. Probably would have screamed with joy hearing this live.
Saw this show live during their tour stop in London and this cover was one of the concert highlights. I didn’t realise they played it as part of their regular set lists, and when it came up they played this track so raw and sharp it damn close punctured my kidneys. Total sensory assault. I’d pay anything to be back there, experiencing it again.
Ahhhhhhhhhhh......lovvvvvvvve this. Its like an old boyfriend you still love showing up at your door as cute as he ever was, and he still loves you too...thank you for this.
THIS PIECE MARKED THE MOST IMPORTANT MOMENT OF MY LIFE...
T-M-I
Best cover on YT!!!
Definitely not a show to recommend to a high electro-sensible fan
Awesome performance !
Thanks for sharing.
They’ve done a cover of Metal Postcard by Siouxsie and the Banshees. Love Massive Attack, cheers.
enchanted by hypnotizing drums
This needed Peter Murphy coming in and singing it upside down.
❤60 YEAR OLD MUSIC LOVER HERE I MUST SAY TY WELL DONE CONTINUE TO RISE TO YOUR GREATNESS SEE YOU ROUND THE FUTURE
Thank You !
An astonishingly brilliant version of a brilliant song.
With his cheek bones filled with blood, but in a nice gothic way.
Was at that show! It was amazing and this blew my mindmeats!
Aaaah!!! What a fiiiind, my current mood.
NICCCEEEEEE
OMG..... What a wonderful Cover!!! My dark heart melt!!! 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
🖤🦇🦇
@@clarefloss8166 🖤🦇🖤🦇🖤🦇🖤🦇🖤🦇🖤🦇
This is as good a cover as you will ever hear 🤔 I doubted the title, then it delivered 😉
Two of my favourite things 🖤
The best cover ever.
Jesus Christ. This is my first time listening to this. Unbelievable cover.
Blasphemer, edit your comment
It's fun but flat. This is a good cover : ua-cam.com/video/rhJZrRV5YKo/v-deo.html
@@Jacammo1 they don't call him Derrick The Blasphemer for nothing.
these guys are still around, like an old friend.
Remember seeing Bauhaus do this at Nottm Rock City mid 80s man this is an amazing version.
i love this song. so simple, so strong. fantastic.
I’ve been on this rock damn near 60 years this is the only tune I think I can dance to thank you
This is the second greatest song of all time. For me. I conquered the world with this as a soundtrack
MASSIVE..... Understatement....This is another level of greatness... Respect.
Got goose bumps just for the title and then, listening it!
I just discovered this cover.
I Have never heard this version untill now and all i can say is aaaahhhhh what a base this is brilliant
Army base/bass guitar! It's not that difficult really.
@@Katehowe3010 It's even less difficult being a pedant.
@@hauntological Come on mate. If you're a music fan, you really should know how to spell it correctly!
@@Katehowe3010 I quite agree but it's not *that* important - and dyslexia is pretty commonplace here.
@@hauntological That never crossed my mind. You've humbled me, and i thank you for it!
That was frigging epic, even on a small screen and thru headphones. Hope they tour again and play the antipodes and this track
Wow-First time hearing Massive Attack-Couldn't be a better song to cover. Well done!
It was good but it’s not really representative. Listen to Blue Lines, Protection and Mezzanine.
A beautiful thing
Amazing trip hop Bauhaus 😂
The only thing that would have made this better is if Pete had stepped out of the wings and dropped the vocals himself, I saw Bauhaus on their first major tour in Portsmouth and was absolutely blown away by their live show, still am.
Better if Pete flapped down from the rafters in a big cloak 😂
Portsmouth Guildhall?
@@pashvonderc381 Yes in Portsmouth England, saw them again later there on the Mask tour I think, Ziggy was out then anyway. Great shows both times and still have a bootleg recording(audio) of one of them.
Magic mushroom selling and trading for food and other essentials in Glastonbury. Massive Attack, my new love after punk rock, reggae
, acid House and eventually dance by the Prodigy. Bauhaus took me to the deep places in my mind. Mushrooming set my formal education back a decade....but I wouldn't trade them times because formal education as we all know does not work for everyone. Love / Heddwch in the the ancient tongue of the Cymru. The truth against the World.
A brilliant cover version, can't fault it.
Thank you so much for recording and sharing! My wife and I were supposed to celebrate our 20th at these shows...but the date change :( We'll watch at home now!
Happy 20th !
Best cover I've heard so far ... the guitar riff is divine. Listen again in a moment! 🖤🦇
If you haven't, you should check out the Nouvelle Vague cover. It's my favorite!
@@emilyexplosion9120 I know the version, but I like the Massive Attack version better.
Dunno how I missed this cover.... Love bauhaus and massive attack, awesome
Never heard u do this....... there I go ha ha . Ace . I loved it for the bass even back then ; as with The Stranglers , Killing Joke , Ruts , Clash Dub etc. Would love to hear this live - excellent cover*
OK.. This is an unlikely thing but what a terrific version. Brilliant. 👍
Wow 😯 amazing. Love both Bauhaus and Massive Attack, fantastic cover
BRILLIANT!!!! version from a great band.
Superbe reprise j’étais au concert à Paris grosse émotion
Wonder if tool could cover this too....great song
Saw this O2 London, superb gig , thanx for posting 👍
My God ..I have to agree with Elissa below ! For a split second I'd gone back in time 30 yrs & the names of two my favourite bands side by side...but Massive Attack actually performing this..Wow!!The visuals on this are amazing !
Très bon comme réussi clin d’œil à Bauhaus...joli !
FYI Peter Murphy plays (well, used to play 🙄) in NYC a lot. I've seen him at City Winery. He did an extended revue at le Poisson Rouge where each night he played each of his albums in it's entirety. A couple nights did all bowie covers. Incredible!
Is he dead? The smoking finally got him, eh. It's bad habit, but he made especially annoying by being overly dramatic as he puffed away. Anyway, RIP.
Strange Kind of Love will always be magic.
@@thedalillama He’s not dead. Bela Legosi’s dead.
Thanks for the tip! One more reason to visit NYC.
Holy crap, thank you for making my day! It's appreciated.like peanut butter and jelly, perfect together and wonderfully done.
Best cover EVER!!!!
Nossa, viagem total... Ótima versão do Bauhaus.
I am afraid I need a pair of ray ban sunglasses to attend this concert. the light is terribly bright 🌞 ✨ 💛
Ho visto 2 live dei Massive Attack nel 2019... Se avessero fatto questo pezzo probabilmente mi sarebbe venuto un colpo!!!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Appena tornata dal concerto di Mantova, cerco freneticamente loro live che mi facciano ancora sentire come se fossi là.. mi sono imbattuta incredula in questo video, mai visto prima! Anch'io nel 2019 sono stata a Milano e a Padova. E dove l'hanno fatta questa? Solo a Roma!!! Altro che colpo mi sarebbe venuto!!! ❤
Hell of a light show!
Man. They sound better than ever!
What a great cover, sounds brand new
Great song. Thanks.
This was a GREAT show.
Why I'm I only now hearing this... It's amazing!
Amazing cover of an amazing song
damn, it’s so cool to find something new
This cut's it. Awesome cover.
Excellent cover
omfg...omfg...omfg...omfg...i know now the reason for covid-19...in my 14 months of semi lockdown existence i would stumble upon this incredible rendition...omfg...omfg...omfg...omfg... thank you as well to video pup....
You are very welcome :)
What a beautiful combination
had assumed this was going to be an awfully wishy washy electronica version ... a great surprise as it's quite true to the original and it's the first thing I've heard by Massive Attack i care to hear! Well done!
What a find!
What can I say... love these two bands...
So freakin cool. Thanks for posting🙌🏽👌🏽😍
Great show, caught it in DC.
Very, very Cool. Thanks for this. Rocks beyond Scope. I appreciate. 😀
Had no idea that they had covered this classic!! :-)
