36 years old, great version. I was 17 when this came out, what a great time of life. In friends rooms listing to music & singing & talking. Not buried in our phones. 👍🏼👍🏼
You can agree too other places in ENGLAND, like MANCHESTER or LONDON, but of course...long live LIVERPOOL, long live ECHO & THE BUNNYMEN. Greetings from BARCELONA.
Saw them last night at The Assembly in Leamington Spa - they look and sound a bit different in 2012 but was an awesome show - great to see this from their prime!

Really wish I could live like that
Best live version ever
I was 15
When MTV played music videos...
Me too😊 Back when music was real. The Album is superb.
Les and Pete; no rhythm section can replace them! R.I.P. Pete.
How incredibly fortunate to have L. Shankar play violin on the studio versions of this and "Back of Love"!!!
Liverpool has created some of the best bands the Uk has seen. The talent is unbelievable
I disagree. United Kingdom has created some of the best bands of the world.

Ya know da
Is right
The pinnacle of mankind's contribution to the high arts and humanities.
can’t believe i just discovered this band... so amazing
ave v better late than never.
Saw them in 1985 at the Greek theater in LA, went last week to the same venue 40 years older. 1985 show was much better.
The thing that makes this song so epic is that it just keeps on driving, building and giving right up until the final note.
Pete’s drumming is a different level on this performance.
Voice back then..wow!
Those dudes are bad ass
"... conquering myself until I see another hurdle approaching."
This is why Echo continues creating a curious craze. These are GREAT SONGS that went undiscovered by the masses. So they are heard as new.
So true 👏
Bunnymen were just magical. They were at their absolute height here.
So true!
they didn't even have to try so much and they still sound great...
Simple melodies, brilliant rhythm section, great frontman. What more do you need?
great stuff from the scousers rest in peace peter
Best song ever to a guy in 1983
Raw talent at it's best.
Lucky to have lived through that time!!!
Never seen this one before. So great!!
Best band i've ever seen live,and i seen a few good ones.
Best song EVER
Their best song
Wow better than the studio version
Saw them last night at The Assembly in Leamington Spa - they look and sound a bit different in 2012 but was an awesome show - great to see this from their prime!

Absolutely brilliant!
There can only be one 'CULT'
Love this song...this great version!!!💕🐰🎵🎶
Best song ever
The Cutter
Who's on the seventh floor
Brewing alternatives
What's in the bottom drawer
Waiting for things to give
Spare us the cutter
Spare us the cutter
Couldn't cut the mustard
Conquering myself
Until I see another hurdle approaching
Say we can, say we will
Not just another drop in the ocean
Come to the free for all
With seven tapered knives
Some of them six feet tall
We will escape our lives
Spare us the cutter
Spare us the cutter
Couldn't cut the mustard
Conquering myself
Until I see another hurdle approaching
Say we can, say we will
Not just another drop in the ocean
Am I the happy loss
Will I still recoil
When the skin is lost
Am I the worthy cross
Will I still be soiled
When the dirt is off
Conquering myself
Until I see another hurdle approaching
Say we can, say we will
Not just another drop in the ocean
Ocean
Watch the fingers close
When the hands are cold
Am I the happy loss
Will I still recoil
When the skin is lost
Am I the worthy cross
Will I still be soiled
When the dirt is off
Am I the happy loss
Will I still be soiled
When the dirt is off
I listened to this song so many times... Lots of layers to it. It helped me get through some tough times.
Thanks for the lovely compliment 😀
La edad de oro. TVE
Mac, Pete, Will and Les at the top of their game. Love them.
Amazing version without synthesizers!
Soooooooooo bummed I missed this last tour ;(
That guitar rift is pure fire
Wow rip. Ride free Pete.

Nice Video
hey paul r.i,p pete great drummmer i'm from chicago thhaks bro
The early eighties.
Is this really live? Seems too great to be live!
How did they not add a touring keyboardist to the lineup?
It's a perfect video wherein the great song is given a half-assed treatment by the band that wrote it, but they just don't respect it.
At that time I actually thought he was scottish with a name like that oh silly me.

Ian’s voice sounds incredible in this video. But compared to his voice now, he smokes WAY too many cigs to have a voice like he does now.
Pity Cope, McCullouch and Wiley couldn't have stuck together as the Crucial 3. Would have given the Beatles a run for their money.
No thanks, I'll take the Bunnymen.
About heroin?
Ummm...don't think so. IF, if it's about drugs, Ian's choice was/is the powdery stuff.
Eso es en Madrid, yo la primera vez que los vi fue en esa época, en Valencia en 1984… Aún lo recuerdo, pese al ciego que llevábamos TODOS 😂
i wish we'd have appreciated these lads more in the day, they'd have been better at what u2 do today.
