Absolutely ridiculous how good he is. The older I get, the more I genuinely appreciate the talent from bands from my younger years. The shit we all took for granted. Amazing
I had the pleasure of being in this audience. the boys in the cowboy hats a minute in were in the pew in front of us. Then we were off to a local club. Andy did a dj set. Vince leaned against the bar having beers. And we danced with the band ! (to Goldfrapp Oh la la la la) I remember it well !
I'm listening in 2025 .. I'm not gay and am a child of the 70's/80's I think its great that now days most people my age (60's) accept people for who they are not what they are. Groups like this played their part
Still gives me goosebumps....my teens were spent singing along with Erasure....am knocking on 50 s door now and still got goisebumps they are fantastic
omg, the country twang really gives this another dimension! just proves a great song sounds good in whatever genre it is played. andy's vocals had matured really fine
One of the most demanding vocals for a male voice in any pop song ever. I was lucky to hear Andy Bell in San Francisco a while back and he didn't disappoint.
@@johnpratt8652 So did I. My mum bought me tickets for my 18th birthday and I went with my first girlfriend. I recall that Adamski opened, but without the actual singer from KIller, who turned out to be Seal). It was still a great experience though.
The wonderful thing about music is that it is universal. When there a song is great like this one, with such great performers, it transcends sexuality, religion, even culture. We feel it on a cellular level. We move without conscious effort. We sing along without realizing we are doing it. In music we are all one people. We are at peace. We love one another.
I love that they aren’t completely destroying this song by making it into some weird tech remix to impress today’s youth. This version’s got respect for its original fans; a less frenetic beat, a more nostalgic tone, but just as uplifting as it was for us 30 years ago! 🥰
I have been thinking that a country cover of this song would be great. Turns out, it's already been done. And by the original band, no less! I love these guys!
Holy shittballs ... that was epic ... i think we in the 80 ties didn't really realize what talent we had in those days. We knew the music was good, but damn all these artists from that era are truly amazing. I guess it needs a bit of time to sink in how truly blessed we were to grow up in that era with all those amazing bands ...
Saw a recent video of him singing live in his back garden and he was amazing he still has that fantastic voice he is one of the best singers that get better as he gets older bloody love him xxxx
It never ceases to amaze me how flexible Andy and Vince are. It takes a lot of talent and why not, humbleness, to re build their songs from their electronic core to make them sound like real southern tunes to please their audience. I know that deep down Andy also made some concessions given the venue they were playing at but that's what makes them music royalty. The fact that they think of their audience and how to engage with them best rather than thinking that whatever they do they must be worshipped. Another great show Andy and Vince. Hats off to them.
I forgot how magnificent his voice was back in the 80's.... And still is evidently! I gave this Erasure cassette as a gift many times in the 80's... a lot of great tunes on it.
Andy unique voice and vocal range along with masterful song writing by Vince Clarke has made Erasure’s sings so endearing. Brings me back to all the good times in my youth and their concert in Sydney.
He's singing the whole thing in a lower range, so he's able to hit the high note. I used to make this song a regular when I hosted karaoke. He's still got an impressive voice for his age.
Espectacular ésta versión! me encantó! no me canso de escucharla, gracias por subirlo. Esta banda es muy especial pues pasan los años y siento que se escucha mejor, gracias !!!
January 2025 - still epic! Love you Andy!
Absolutely ridiculous how good he is. The older I get, the more I genuinely appreciate the talent from bands from my younger years. The shit we all took for granted. Amazing
with no auto-tune in sight.
Yeah...I was just thinking..this guy's voice is really damn good.
Just said something similar...
I try to help my daughter to 'appreciate' listening to her favourite songs (bts)...
Yes agreed
The version is very good, it does not lose its essence, its feeling.

That sounds ACE!!!

The background vocals and that savage on the pedal steel are the unsung heroes here.
Like how U2 would use the cow bell...it's sometimes the small things that make things great. . (That's NOT what she said)...lol
What about the guitars?
Brilliant..Andy's voice is still epic after all these years
ua-cam.com/video/JV8Wno90aI0/v-deo.html&ab_channel=RobMain
He STILL has the confidence to bring out his best in high style, while not at his youthful peak. Not easy!! Love him!
A qualidade do som e a voz do Andy, continuam impecáveis!!!!! Amo Erasure pra sempre!!!!
ouvindo agora .Novembro de 2024
Still gives me goosebumps....my teens were spent singing along with Erasure....am knocking on 50 s door now and still got goisebumps they are fantastic
Amazing how humans connect across the world over the music they listened during their youth and their individual core memories ❤️❤️❤️
Right there with you! I’m just over 50 now and this song puts me right back in the sights, sounds, and feelings of my 20s.
Me too
Me too!!! What talent - joyous💖❤️🔥💓💞💕💋❣️👏🌍🌎🌏
Was a PSB fan more then and now I listen to Erasure more..
omg, the country twang really gives this another dimension! just proves a great song sounds good in whatever genre it is played. andy's vocals had matured really fine
Yup, saw the cowboys enjoying the show😉
I sooo wasn't expecting that but IT WORKS!! 💯❤️
Saw Erasure in concert in Manchester in the early 90s. A night to remember
saw them twice in Germany ! Amazing since 30 years
One of the most demanding vocals for a male voice in any pop song ever. I was lucky to hear Andy Bell in San Francisco a while back and he didn't disappoint.
I had the pleasure of watching this show live at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville….and it was glorious.
Makes me miss the 80’s and early ‘90’s
Awesome years of good music!
Amazing version, his voice is awesome.
So his voice has been his real voice, without help from tech for all these years?
Awesome.
yeh, speaking of respect, eh? no freaking x-tunes.
Erasure with a steel guitar. I’ve seen it all now, but it worked!
I still love Erasure as much as I did in the 80’s. Hopefully one day they make it to Australia. Would be a dream to see them in concert.
I saw them in Milton Keynes back in 1990 I was 17

They played in Sydney late 1990’s

Everytime I hear this record it's a pleasure. I love the guitar music and the vocals, its really timeless

100%
well-said :)
With a truly good song, you can strip it down and it just becomes better.
Arguably the best pop song ever
who's listening now in October 2024?
Me
November !
Eu estou ouvindo essa música em plena madrugada 😊
Watching November 2024
Everyone does. Great performance 😊😊😊
I actually got a little manic when I heard this song after so many years! Holy shit on the memories and emotion this song envokes in me!
I have been thinking that a country cover of this song would be great. Turns out, it's already been done. And by the original band, no less!
I love these guys!
Wow, this really gives a whole new dimension to this song. I want more of this!
Hello friend, I will check if I have more songs on the same presentation.
I seek at my DVDs, but this is the only song that I have from this show. Cheers.
Search for on the road to Nashville. The album is erasure country version songs
A voz ta mais madura e ainda ficou melhor, continua cantando muito e com a alma, amo essa música, um clássico.
Tbm amo, lançada no final da deca de 80 entrando pra os anos 90

Subtle but compliments the song perfectly!
Ficou maravilhosa essa versão... O tempo não passou pra voz desse cara... Sensacional!!!
I saw a video of him singing in his garden live, and he still sounds amazing, having a voice like his is a gift, one of my favorite performers ever,xx
Nothing but RESPECT for a great singer
This man can STILL sing as few others ever could. Great, great performance.

I love Andy. Im so proud of him.... I can sing to all of his songs. Thank you Andy. 💕
the pedal steel guitar gave it a new flavor, and i love it!
Awesome version! He's taken care of that voice.
My favourite band when I was in my 20’s Beautiful voice!
Powerful lyrics plus a wonderful voice, thats what erasure was and will always bse...

Faultless performance.... Amazing amazing amazing
His voice! Incredible still! What a talent
Lembro nos anos 90 no park de diverçoes em meu bairro, sempre tocava massa ki lembrança boaaa,😢saudades
gotta give some maximum respect for that performance ! // properly heartfelt and superb .. and pitch perfect )))
I never would have imagined doing a country-style version of this song, but god damn it works. Freaking awesome guys!
I forgot how magnificent his voice was back in the 80's....
And still is evidently!
I gave this Erasure cassette as a gift many times in the 80's...
a lot of great tunes on it.
Incredibile, meglio di quando era un ragazzino, stupendo 😍😍
perfect. just perfect.
Very slick and commited performance by Andy, and the pedal steel player added taste and a new flavour to it. Very nice version indeed.
Frig me who doesn’t love Andy bell & erasure? That steel guitar just amazing performance 👏🏼👏🏼🙌🏼
Unbelievable !! 💛 My Anthem back in the day and I need to make it so again !
I really love the original version but, man this is awesome!
That steel guitar sounds very delicious!
Great!
The talent is phenomenal!!!
Erasure are the best ♥ ♥
Love you Erasure!!! Love you Andy!!!
Excellent. Love this country music version of the song.. it works well with Andy's voice!
WoW, Andy and Vince is magic as always!
Andy unique voice and vocal range along with masterful song writing by Vince Clarke has made Erasure’s sings so endearing. Brings me back to all the good times in my youth and their concert in Sydney.
Bloody fantastic…as per…he’s the best…👏👏👏👏🙏🥰
Okay, this is a truly amazing variation with the autoharp. As usual Mr. Bell is the center of the entire arrangement.
It’s like an acoustic country version of a wonderful 80s dance song. Love it!
WOW..,SO REALLY AMAZING THIS PERFORMANCE ,
increible voice, after so many years look the same voice that was younger in the 80's.
These guys are not in my top list but I need to say his voice still remains the same after decades. Good job Erasure!!
Some singers lose it, Andy didn't. 🇬🇧❤️💙❤️💙

@@mac1975 Shut up.
Brilliant song, unique voice, huge range and timbre!
Blown away. Perfect; best lyrics ever and delivered flawlessly with so much heart
Damn he sounds good live! And mixing in the steel guitar was superb. As a native Texan I approve lol.
Classy guy just love this live performance,he’s still got the voice ❤️😃
Still has that amazing voice! That song brings back so many memories from my childhood. ❤
Such a good voice. Met him briefly at the BBC many years ago. Lovely guy.
OMG I've been crying my eyes out!!!
I absolutely love them, and love this song❤
Could listen to this on loop all day😆❤❤❤
What an awesome performance of a fantastic song!
This is totally awesome! Tremendous talent right here!
Still have this on cassette 🤘🏻🤘🏻
With all my heart, thank you....wonderfull performance.....is the same voice....
What a great concert! I was live at that great show. ;-) Nice greetings from Germany.
Awesome singing ,what a legend, and he can still hit those high notes incredible
He's singing the whole thing in a lower range, so he's able to hit the high note. I used to make this song a regular when I hosted karaoke. He's still got an impressive voice for his age.
You're right, my friend!!! What a performance!!!
i dont know why i did not have any respect for Andy back in the day.Absolute stellar man
This is the first time I've ever heard of them or watched a video. He's incredibly talented
Incredible acoustic performance. Love it.
Incredible. Beautiful. Awesome. And being from Texas, I love the steel guitar.
Espectacular ésta versión! me encantó! no me canso de escucharla, gracias por subirlo. Esta banda es muy especial pues pasan los años y siento que se escucha mejor, gracias !!!
1000 Dank das Ihr mich mit Eurer Musik durch`s Leben begleitet habt.
Tenho 47 anos hoje, essa foi uma época mágica minha adolescência .
A very beautiful song. Superb performance.

About 300 of those 650,000 views are me, and I just got goosebumps again. Love this!
Great! His voice is getting stronger.
