They used more of the sample than I thought, but even so, the main string section is not on the sample and that's what most people assumed was sampled. I think the strings were by Will Malone if I remember rightly, I know that he worked with The Verve and Richard Ashcroft on other songs. The main thing that they used was the bells which aren't that noticeable in the finished version as the guitar plays the same notes. I actually never noticed the electric sitar. It'd probably work as a song with just the sample and the vocals if the sample was a bit louder, but there's so much that's missing. It really just adds atmosphere. I had no idea that The Rolling Stones also "borrowed" from another song, although it doesn't really surprise me as that's what most blues rock bands did. Led Zeppelin wouldn't have a career if it weren't for taking things from old blues songs and they're not the only ones. Yet when someone tries to use their songs, suddenly lawyers get involved.

You can barely hear the percussion in the song though. It's mixed really low. The sample served its purpose by inspiring Richard, and if they were really smart, they could have removed it before release and avoided the whole mess.
I always felt bad for the verve here but listening to this- I dunno man - I feel like it’s pretty close to being the entire basis for what people liked about the song. What made this song huge was that strings riff and it turns out it’s just following the melody played by the bells that are deep in the mix.
@@bobsbigboy_ no, actually, i think it's all shit, and no Shinola as they used to say. Way too many of the comments were saying how great it sounded and they could hear the essence yadda yadda and that it was all the best parts of the tune. And that made me glad I don't like people. because people are often, such as in this case, full of shit, either in their words or between their ears.
This is so much better than the released version. All that additional guff just made the song whiney. Now Richard Ashcroft's voice is much clearer and stronger.

This is gonna be my wedding song ♥
Rolling Stones:
-Oh really?
I love how the Verve without the Verve is just Richard Ashcroft trying to do a trip hop/snug harbor thing

On the official video of Bittersweet Symphony at 2:17 you can hear the electric sitar in the background.
@@FerryLuckyMan I must have heard that song at least 100 times and I've never noticed it before. There's just so much there that it's easy to miss.
@@theneonchimpchannel9095 you can hear it clearer on the b-side "MSG".
WHAT MALONE??, CARL MALONE??

This is the real; the radio play version is what the suits think we want. Theyre both right. It just depends on the day.
I love this song. People want to talk about the strings being the what makes the song but to me the percussion from the sample is so good

I like this.
Be nice to have a version of just the background vocal
Still a great song.
So The Rolling Stones sued The Verve, but did The Staple Sisters sue the Rolling Stones?
Nope.
❤🩹❤

@@dantasia721 they don't follow exactly the same melody. They added additional music notes.
sounds empty and disjointed.
no shit
