The REAL Ultravox.
R.I.P Chris. 😞
I saw Ultravox at Hurrah's in NYC, I believe 1978. Klaus Nomi opened. During Rockwrok John Foxx put the microphone in my face and I sang part of the chorus for all to hear.
F*ck like a dog bite like a shark? Better than Massive Attacks inappropriate cover
Foxx was a proper frontman. Absolutely brilliant to see him, Chris and Stevie Shears on quality footage such as this.
Stevie missed more than a few notes, but still prefer him to Robin. He did well in the studio.
Wow, Stevie Shears is the main focus at the end. Like an alternative universe Midge Ure 😂
Incredibly sad news tonight of the passing of Chris Cross, bass player with Ultravox. The version with John Foxx in the 1970s was one of my favorite bands. They played their last shows in March 1979 at the Cuckoo's Nest and The Whiskey. John Foxx went solo and the rest continued on with Midge Ure as the singer. Once Gary Numan and Human League had success as synth bands, John Foxx and Ultravox MK2 had more success and hits in the 1980s.
This song just captures the feeling of the seventies slow transition into the futuristic electronic romance, a dying love in a dying light, let's stay in here for ever, and when the streets are quiet, we'll walk out in the silence. I miss the seventies: -(
That'd be "Just for a Moment" not this punk rocker one
Ultravox on fire with John Foxx
I used to see them at the Marquee Club in London. Really very special, electric, electronic, experimental, and John Foxx had such charisma.
So did I
Hiroshima Mon Amour at The Marquee, it still makes the hairs on my neck stand up.
what an original song it was ...
My favourite track from their first album, wish i got to see them with Foxx live!
I did in March of 1979 at the Whiskey A Go-Go in West Hollywood, CA. It was Robin Simon on guitar. Stevie Sheers was let go after their 2nd album. I was 23 when I saw Ultravox back then.
I didn't know it was on the first album or any album
Love this song, especially Chris's bass line
This song is beatiful ....is Magic
I was at this show, they were supporting Eddie & the Hotrods, fantastic night.
Saw Eddie and the hot rods in 77 and Squeeze and Radio Stars were the support...I was still at school and my first concert. Ultravox would of been amazing to watch😊
2 years later and I still love this song !!!!
Very nice. One of my favorite songs of the first album.
Marvellous - perfection Top tune from the first album.
The mid 70s is when music mutated into something special.
True
Fantastic song. Great quality footage.
This is what I’ve been waiting for magnificent
Yep, definitely the highlight so far.
Warren's drumming is amazing but everyone is bringing it.
Marvellous. Really marvellous.
✨great song✨
This song always makes me so emotional for some reason and I don't know why. I love it a lot I guess.
Me too
Same here.
And me
R.I.P. Chris
Great live.
Top top stuff here i never knew existed !! Stunning & Foxx was some frontman.
Tremendous!
Live lyrics version
Enter me gently, I break in the light
Cover my eyes, with the rags of my life
Were you speaking
Or did I say
The empires are fading
It's time to be slipping away
Let's slip away
Let's slip away
Letters from lovers are lining my grate
Some came too early and some came too late
Were you speaking
Or did I say
The empires are fading
It's time to be slipping away
Let's slip away
Let's slip away
What am I to do
Don't leave me
What is there to say, I really...
We're just wasting time
Let the night takes it's place
Colour my eyes with the dusk of this wonderful day
Let's slip away
Let's slip away
All things fall from me, the bonds and the veils
All things blow by me, my sorrows have sails
Were you speaking
Or did I say
The empires are fading
It's time to be slipping away
As you call me
My hands they fall open
My mouth it is frozen
The chrysalis tumbles
I'm falling
Slow motion
Dissolve
I think it's "I really were just wasting time".
And apparently here he says "Cover my eyes with the dust of this wonderful day".
Enter me gently? Ooer mister!
My sorrows have sails...
such a great line, my fave track so far, loving these foxx era uploads
@@endlessriver2768 me toooo!!
Such a brilliantly constructed song almost orchestral xx
Al fin!!!
Y que hermoso les quedo el Remaster!!
Thank you for posting this.
Always preferred this line up
dopo Foxx troppo romanticismo, i veri Ultravox sono questi 👍💋
Seppur apprezzi qualcosa (Vienna e Rage…) del barocco nuovo corso con midge ure, gli album con John Foxx rimangono dei capolavori. Ma forse erano soltanto due visioni musicali per due periodi storici decisamente differenti. Chissà..
Superb.
Beauty !!!!
I much prefer this version to the studio version: on the debut album it’s too languid; Stevie’s guitar has some real bite to it here.
And that's a really beautiful Fender guitar that Mr. Shears has got there !
I love ultravox
#70s80sNewWavePostPunk
Can understand why they thought Stevie was limited when they moved forward, but his guitar parts here are perfect for the song
Brilliant Nice One for putting it here
wow
Blur look likes Ultravox !
Oh, esto realmente conmueve mi espíritu.
Best song Ultravox! when John Foxx was in the lineup
El dios ...
Fan-fucking-tastic!!!
One of my favorite tracks from the John Foxx era, yet, in this version, two very important things are missing: Warren's bass drum and Billy Currie! Where is Billy? Seems like the cameramen forgot that he was there too... In general bass frequencies are missing from the mix, you can hear Chris's bass or Warren's toms, but only in their high frequencies, which is pretty annoying... I know that it's an old recording, but I've listened to much better live stuff from the late seventies... Anyways: great stuff!
The live version on the first album sounds much better. I wonder why they went for this inferior mix. Compare: ua-cam.com/video/BG2XIYPkgyM/v-deo.html&ab_channel=Ultravox-Topic
@@SonicVolcanoify absolutely! You're right
This is the same recording that was previously the b-side of Young Savage. Comparing this and Modern Love with those previously released, they've really messed up the audio mixes on them with some needless reverb/echo and lost some of the bass. I can see me doing a redux of those two tracks. I really hope that these aren't going to be the audio mixes used for the EP and they stick with the flat mixes, rather than plastering this bullshit 'large hall' reverb nonsense all over them. As it is, at least I have good mixes for two tracks.
We did get a brief shot of Billy’s left hand near the end
@@thefrozenone it made my day! 😜
🖤🇧🇷
Ultravox as a punk act to what they became.
Ricky already this was post punk to me.... Looking towards Europe
I was a Midge Ure era fan who worked backwards.
This is far better.
The later material is more commercial (obviously) and a little pretentious. But there's still a lot of good stuff.
But there's still
same
Spot on comment
oh, my god.
That must be a REALLY hard song to sing - John Foxx goes hard faultlessly for 2 solid minutes ...
you know what, someone dropped a MAJOR b0ll0ck with this band, they really should've been f0rkin HUGE
Mats Wilander ?
The real Ultravox! Vienna was okay but after that they were too diluted. Like Japan and also the original Human League they went commercial and chased the dollar.
The 2022 remix of Rage In Eden is good though
Japan chased the dollar with Tin Drum and Ghosts? Its incredibly uncommercial. However, I ll admit they did chase the Yen 💴!
It was all over they day they kicked Stevie out. His playing really made those first 2 albums
Saw them countless times at the Marquee... and Doctors of Madness! The very best of times..
Ultravox are kind of like Genesis to me. Much preferred the Gabriel era.....same with Foxx. This one even sounds like Genesis due to some of the keyboard flourishes. Billy Currie being the Tony Banks of the group!
proto post punk
1977 post punk ?.
Once certains members of Ultravox decided Stevie Shears guitar playing was too rock and roll for the sound they were trying to achieve, huge mistake as the third album, the first without Stevie Shears was nowhere near as good as the previous two albums. With Foxx going next - the next reincarnation of Ultravox was an embarrassment to the original Ultravox....
Corrrrrrrrrect!
That's a minority opinion. Systems of Romance was genre defining and, led to Ultravox being leaders instead of just another punk era band. Which was probably their plan. Tho I like Shears he really has one sound, and it's very much of its time. And an inside source tells me he couldn't improvise like his successor, but he would say that
SUPERB
