Nooo! when a music is remastered it no longer sounds the same. The force of the sound and the instruments are lost, it sounds like it is in a box. I think the hertz drops. Listen to the original Don't Cry by Guns N' Roses and compare the sound to the original 2022 remastered version. You'll hear the difference.
Will those feet in modern times Walk on soles that are made in China? Through the bright prosaic malls And the corridors that go on and on and on Are we blind ? Can we see? We are one, incomplete Are we blind ? In the city Waiting for lightning to be saved, yeah 'Cause love is noise, love is pain Love is these blues that I?m singing again Love is noise, love is pain Love is these blues that I'm singing Again, again, again, again, again Will those feet in modern times Understand this world's affliction? Recognize the righteous anger? Understand this world's addiction?

Love is noise
The way Richard Ashcroft has managed to take some of the darkest emotions in us all & lyricised them into such an amazing song is what classifies this as a masterpiece!
Always and forever thank you to Great Britain, the British people and their creativity for giving the rest of the World hundreds of unique bands such as The Verve and music of unparalleled beauty, quirkiness and atmosphere. What would our lives have been without British bands?
Listening since 2008, never got tired of listening and watching it. Like it passes through my veins thoroughly and smoothly, no uncomfortable feeling. Awesome in many spectrums.
Esta fue la primera canción de the Verve en engancharme, yo era adolescente, sabía de sus grandes éxitos del pasado, pero esta canción salió durante los años que yo ya aprendía a distinguir música hecha con el alma, fue todo un privilegio estar consciente de su música durante esos últimos años de vigencia de la banda, lástima que la reunión duró muy poco, sin embargo han dejado un legado indiscutible, esta canción es bastante atemporal, suena muy fresca, amo esta banda.
"Will those feet in modern times..." I think, is a nod to William Blake's Jerusalem. What a song, been listening for over a decade, still relevant, still fresh, just like Blake's genius poetry.
The only band to actually make me cry (in a good way) whilst seeing them live! My Missus looked at me and said “Si why are you crying”? “Because it’s a beautiful moment”!
You have a love life and it recently fell apart? My condolences; the farthest I've gone so far are crushes that never materialized, and they're bad enough as it is. I can't even imagine what you're going through.
+Opetti Argh, tell me that this pain will go away, your comment was 9 months ago, but i broke up 3 weeks ago... Luckily i'm from Spain so understanding the lyrics is difficult for me. Anyway, whatever, listen to "Desire Lines" from "Deerhunter", one of the best songs ever made, and have a nice day, i'll try my best to have it also
+Alejandro Aroca García I'm really sorry to hear that your relationship ended. If I say that the pain will go away, I'm sure you wouldn't believe me. But you will come to realise that by your own. I thought I could never function as a normal human being again, but here I am writing to you. In my experience, the worst thing you can do is to try to avoid the pain. So feel the pain. You'll probably think that you'd rather die than feel the whole spectrum of emotions related to breaking up, but in the end it will help you move on.
+Opetti I can't believe you really answered me. You just took some of your free time to make sure that i had an answer, something to do, something to think about, even though you don't even know me... This is incredible, admirable, wonderful... You must be one of those people that the world should be full of... Let me tell you something, today, after writing the comment, i had to go to some place and i had to use the subway, i was travelling through a corridor until i reached some stairs, i always use the normal stairs, not the mechanic ones (Because i don't think that i need to use them yet, there will be a time to do it) and after climbing all the steps i saw a mother, who was with his daughter in a baby stroller. She was struggling to handle the Stroller because she had to climb down the stairs that i just climbed up. And i was the only fucking person there that helped her! People feel ashamed of helping others! It's terrible... But that woman told me the most sincere "Thank you" that i ever heard, and it made me feel proud and helpful, of what i just had done, helping someone. It made me realise that the effort of taking the stroller down the stairs had been worth it... Because maybe my ex doesn't love me anymore, but what the hell, that doesn't mean i'm useless, isn't it? I can still make people feel good... Even just by doing little things That's why i want to thank you what you've done, because you totally deserve it, you tried to help me, in fact, YOU HELPED ME A LOT, you wrote me when i thought that you wouldn't and when i needed it the most. It may sound stupid but... Hey, read this carefully, I LOVE CARS, really, i love them, they are the only thing that i know that will stay with me for the rest of my life, i learnt to read by playing a racing videogame when i was like 3 years old! But why do i tell you this stupid boring thing? Well, i have a list Yup, my "If I Were a Rich Man" list. And what is it about? It is simple, It is a list where i write names of important people of my life, people that really helped me back in the day, and then i write a car that i would give them as a present if i was a rich person. Yeah, it is stupid! But i don't care! If someday, if anyday in my life i become a rich person, i want my friends, i want the people who ever helped me to be rewarded, because i want to, because i think they deserve it! And you totally deserve it, Opetti. I want you to be part of that list, every single person like you in this planet deserves it Keep in mind that the probability of me being rich in the future is... Well... Quite small huh? But dreaming is free and all we have left in the end... But even being in the list feels good, isn't it? I'll have to feel the pain, i'll have to learn because of such a bad experience, but if i feel that i'm part of a world where people like you exists and makes its everyday life, i'll be proud to say that i totally want to live here and enjoy until my last breath. Hey, look at this: flic.kr/p/Bfeuup Welcome to my list Well, i don't want to make you waste more time on a strange person like me, keep living your life, enjoy it, keep being such a great person just by making little things like this and... who knows, maybe, someday, if i'm a rich person, you'll find a new car in front of your house, waiting for you, as a reward for who you are and who you have been. Oh, and do me a favor, if someday you need ANYTHING, really, ANYTHING, i'll help you. If you feel desperate, alone, happy, bored, ANYTHING, i'll be here to help you, i'll be here to treat you in the same way you have treated me in one of the most important moments of my life. Just send me a message or something, i'll give you my Facebook or Whatsapp, or whatever you need, but i'll be here. By the way, you can call me Billy, Alex Billy, that's how i like my friends to call me Have a nice day Sayonara!
+Opetti I just read your comments and I can completely relate!//my relationship of nearly 5 years ended a few months ago...it has been the most heart breaking horrific time for me but I guess you already know that! as a man going through a breakup I can honestly say I've never felt a pain quite like it! you feel like you lost your soul and you kinda die inside...can't function, can't think of anything but her and the mistakes you made, things you should have and shouldnt have done and said....regret! truly harrowing... but it is is getting a little easier as the weeks go by...I'm concentrating on various projects and thinking about the future...at meat trying to...but I don't think the wound will ever completely heal! I'm glad you came through it and you sound much better for it!
Not by Owen Morris who called him the best musician he’s ever met . His salvaging of the Urban Hymns sessions and finishing the production on that album kinda proves that.
Uk groups and singers have all a thing...That's so incredible. In France, we don't have that kind of sounds and melody. Love it so much. I used to listen to the Verve since so long time and will always. I remember when I listen to Bitter Sweet Symphony for the first time. It was just released and for the first time in my life I took the plane to discover life, meeting women...It will always be linked to The Verve ❤💛💙
Thank the god's for Richard Ashcroft. A truly authentic, passionate, rousing musician and conveyer of Universal truth. The man has been a blazing light in music since early work with The Verve on Northern Soul...."History" especially hit me and lead to my admiration that's endured throughout his remarkable career. After Urban Hymns and the big breakthrough with the album and notoriety/controversy of "Bittersweet symphony" though it went a bit quiet with The Verve's "Forth"....back with more innovative brilliance solo not long after "A song for the lovers". I love how fearless he is; he'll take on any genre (Out of my body) and is always exciting. One never knows what to expect from a man who can convey the pathos and pain of a record like "History" with pitch perfect lyrics intensely melancolic and so achingly beautiful with his extraordinary vocal gift .....Then vacillate toward an optimism later in his career such as in "Surprised by the joy".....The man is the rarest of things: Utterly authentic and one of a minute group of artists who speak/sing with universal truth and whom harness music to articulate messages that matter. He's a force of passion, fighter for social justice and truth whom at 50 years young, seems to be even more full of energy, fury at corruption, looking untouched by age and wow; that voice....It seems only to become more incredible. No matter how familiar I am with any song sung by Ashcroft, If a record of his plays, It evokes real feeling. I can't ever just listen; his music forces me to "feel". Music's aesthetic equivalent of the late, great Wilde's eponymous protagonist "Dorian Gray" fortunately has integrity and ethical greatness that was acutely absent in his fictitious physical equivalent.......... The finest lyricist of his (and my) generation and among the finest vocaliets across the entire spectrum of music and any/all generations. There are maybe two artists I can think of historically that are arguably as gifted vocally......And they are not alive for a long time. Obviously music is entirely subjective and there is no right or wrong way to interpret anything. Nor any definitive way to denote whom is "the best" at any musical matter.. I recognise this is just my view of a musical great. Others of course will disagree; as they should! A world where we all like the same stuff and think the same way is not a world I want to be part of. However, my (utterly irrelevant, personal) opinion is that Ashcroft is a visionary, an artist motivated by passion and truth who uses the medium of music to explore themes that are prerequisite parts of life for all; and does so with a sublime gift for writing lyrics that astound; performed with a voice breathtakingly brilliant; always giving his all; full of heart and not afraid to show us his soul. A truly great gift to music who has enough passion, vigour and dedication to leave me sure that he will be blowing my mind and breaking my heart with his sublime work for decades to come. Unstoppable. Love to all persons; peace folks.💙👌.
Fuck. Apologies for lulling folk into a coma. I go by that well known (ahem) adage of "Why say succintly what one can drag out for a self indulgent, lengthy monologue and force unfortunate reader's to lose the will to live with?" I live alone. I have no idea how I'm single; a fascinating character like me?!😆........ It's a fucking mystery!
14 years later, I am no longer 18. But the girl with the falcon, it's still a sublimely beautiful caption of the video. Of the long history of music videos, even. So serious, so serene.
@@alejandrove3589 My earlier reply was the result of a combination of low mood, drinking, and a memory of a negative experience involving someone. This isn't the right place to post specific details. The Verve were a great band, and that's something much more worthy of discussion.
Wow I remember first time in London turned on the TV and this song was playing i never forget , I didn’t know any English at that time but everything in this music felt amazing

Just saw Richard Ashcroft at the Splendour fest. Without knowing the singer on the stage was from The Verve...their music kept taking me back somewhere, but I couldn't figure it out. I decided to beat the crowd rush and left early. While on the bus home, I connected the dots, and leaving that show early is now my biggest musical regret. This music is timeless. Badass!
That first "riff" always gets my attention, so evocative. Reminds me of being a student in late 2000s, travelling to London on the train to meet up with my boyfriend during the summer holidays. Fast-forward nearly 15 years and we are long since broken up (something I deeply regret now) and now I live in New Zealand. Definitely feels like a lifetime ago that I was a student rocking out to this tune!
Incredibly underrated. One of the best British songs of all time.
❤💯
❤
Cannot believe this is 14 years old. Stunning as ever. Long live The Verve
16 year old. Since 2008
This masterpiece deserves to be remastered in HD.
How can this be preserved in 360p 😢
🙂🤪
Nooo! when a music is remastered it no longer sounds the same. The force of the sound and the instruments are lost, it sounds like it is in a box. I think the hertz drops. Listen to the original Don't Cry by Guns N' Roses and compare the sound to the original 2022 remastered version. You'll hear the difference.
Couldn't agree more!
Yes.
British music is perhaps, the best in the world.
It is.Forever in love with Uk music.
From a Greek
To you Brits ofcrs, but to the rest of the world definitely not😂
What about spain
True and Scandinavian and Dutch power and symphonic metal ❤
It is.
This song is a timeless masterpiece. It never gets old & could easily be a new single in 2024.
This and Bitter Sweet Symphony are timeless to be honest
Indeed, built on empathy I feel.
Chronically underrated.
So many of their songs would be an instant hit...any time in the future!
Most of todays "hits" is shit!
Whoo Whoo Whoo ahoo ahoo ahoo
I'm a Australian that fully respects the melody of U.K music. Shivers.
Gotta love Richard Ashcroft’s vocals❤
Love is noise ….. love is pain ……. Love is these blues that I’m singing again
Need The Verve back.,
Best voice of the world.
what about dave grohl?
Dave grohl hahahahahahaha
what about freddie mercury?
Along with Liam Gallagher
Best male voice is James Hetfield.
2024 anyone ??
🎉
Yeah!
I am here❤
Of Course, We all know what good music is!
🇧🇷
This man is a genius. Brutally underrated.
Nick is the genius
Nick and Richard TOGETHER is the genius.
yeah , The Verve is amazing band ...
Dorian Gray not buy me
Dorian Gray fucking right
This song just gets better the older it gets. So does this band!
2023 and this is still a tune.
🙂
Yes 👍🏽
I'm also here ☝🏼
Claro!
2024 now 🎉
This piece of art is just amazing. This song is just beautiful.
Genius
We want Verve to come back! It's 2022, we all aged since bittersweet symphony!
I totally agree definitely an underrated band and their songs need to resurface 🤘🤘👍👍🥳
Yasssss
And aged horribly! I'm 104 years old! Richard Ashcroft is a genius!!

We are one, incomplete
Are we blind ? In the city
Waiting for lightning to be saved, yeah
'Cause love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I?m singing again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing
Again, again, again, again, again
Will those feet in modern times
Understand this world's affliction?
Recognize the righteous anger?
Understand this world's addiction?
I was blind, couldn't see
What was here in me
I was blind - insecure
Felt like the road was way too long, yeah
'Cause love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm feeling again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing
Again, again, again, again, again, again, again
'Cause love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that you're feeling again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing
Again, again, again, again, again, again, again
All those feet in modern times
Walk on soles made in China
Will those feet in modern times
See the bright prosaic malls
Will those feet in modern times
Recognize the heavy burden
Will those feet in modern times
Pardon me for my sins?
Love is noise
so prophetic it gives me goosebumps.
Songs class the guys off the scale
Thanks!
Paradojicamente la realidad que estamos viviendo en este mundo, es q como ya estaba adelantado la aflicción de este mundo.
This is one of those songs that no matter how many years would pass, it will never stop sounding current. One of those timeless examples.
Literally one of the most overlooked comeback songs in the history of music! Fantastic tune!
Fact
It's one of the very few songs that can give me goosebumps still... Fantastic song !!!
You fucking know it. ❤
There is always something beautiful and brooding about british music, like no other.

There used to be.

Great words so true
10 years later and it still is as relevant and emotional as ever. I remember seeing it on tv often when I was a kid back around '09.
Absolutely love The Verve. Something magical about their songs and sound.
holy moly I was searching this for years 😍😍😍😍
Verve : Great Sound.
Great Music.
The crème de la crème

Quanto sei bello!! ❤️ Da sempre 🇮🇹🇮🇹
Who’s still banging this out in 2020 what a TUNEEE

Cant get enough of this
What an underrated song ... it's just fenomenal
2024 and still loving it 🥰 💕
I want THE VERVE in Rock in Rio 2024!!! 😍❤️🎶🎼🎸
Hello from Bolivia. Love this song. Love what Bretain produced, the best bands ever😻
Can’t explain the way this drum & bass riff makes me move ✌🏼
RIP Lenny 🎶
This song makes me listen over and over again since I first ever heard in 2008 addicted and still listening in 2021.
"Will those feet in modern times..." I think, is a nod to William Blake's Jerusalem.
What a song, been listening for over a decade, still relevant, still fresh, just like Blake's genius poetry.
Ashcroft also references Blake in the opening line of 'History' 👍
This song aged like a fine wine
Mi tema favorito ‼️🙌🥰🇦🇷😭💔
The only band to actually make me cry (in a good way) whilst seeing them live! My Missus looked at me and said “Si why are you crying”?
“Because it’s a beautiful moment”!
I hear this fucking masterpiece when I was a teenager, now as a adult I still have the same fucking feeling.

Most underrated band ever. They were and still the best even if they hate each other .
The Verve merci pour toutes ces musiques merveilleuses et incomparables et inoubliables ❤ 🎉❤
Nick McCabe was the most underrated guitarist of the entire Britpop era.
easily, country mile stuff, great bass by simon jones too
Not by Owen Morris who called him the best musician he’s ever met . His salvaging of the Urban Hymns sessions and finishing the production on that album kinda proves that.
Such an underrated song, and artist!
One of the best bands ever. Simples ❤️🇬🇧
Best band I ever seen.

One never knows what to expect from a man who can convey the pathos and pain of a record like "History" with pitch perfect lyrics intensely melancolic and so achingly beautiful with his extraordinary vocal gift .....Then vacillate toward an optimism later in his career such as in "Surprised by the joy".....The man is the rarest of things: Utterly authentic and one of a minute group of artists who speak/sing with universal truth and whom harness music to articulate messages that matter. He's a force of passion, fighter for social justice and truth whom at 50 years young, seems to be even more full of energy, fury at corruption, looking untouched by age and wow; that voice....It seems only to become more incredible. No matter how familiar I am with any song sung by Ashcroft, If a record of his plays, It evokes real feeling. I can't ever just listen; his music forces me to "feel".
Music's aesthetic equivalent of the late, great Wilde's eponymous protagonist "Dorian Gray" fortunately has integrity and ethical greatness that was acutely absent in his fictitious physical equivalent..........
The finest lyricist of his (and my) generation and among the finest vocaliets across the entire spectrum of music and any/all generations. There are maybe two artists I can think of historically that are arguably as gifted vocally......And they are not alive for a long time. Obviously music is entirely subjective and there is no right or wrong way to interpret anything. Nor any definitive way to denote whom is "the best" at any musical matter.. I recognise this is just my view of a musical great. Others of course will disagree; as they should! A world where we all like the same stuff and think the same way is not a world I want to be part of.
However, my (utterly irrelevant, personal) opinion is that Ashcroft is a visionary, an artist motivated by passion and truth who uses the medium of music to explore themes that are prerequisite parts of life for all; and does so with a sublime gift for writing lyrics that astound; performed with a voice breathtakingly brilliant; always giving his all; full of heart and not afraid to show us his soul.
A truly great gift to music who has enough passion, vigour and dedication to leave me sure that he will be blowing my mind and breaking my heart with his sublime work for decades to come. Unstoppable.
Love to all persons; peace folks.💙👌.
Fuck. Apologies for lulling folk into a coma.
I go by that well known (ahem) adage of "Why say succintly what one can drag out for a self indulgent, lengthy monologue and force unfortunate reader's to lose the will to live with?"
I live alone. I have no idea how I'm single; a fascinating character like me?!😆........ It's a fucking mystery!

14 years later, I am no longer 18. But the girl with the falcon, it's still a sublimely beautiful caption of the video. Of the long history of music videos, even. So serious, so serene.
The girl's name is Lydia. Beauty is best admired from a distance. She's not someone you should get too close to.
@@travelandmusic725 Well wasn't that random and unexpected
@@travelandmusic725 I am here again so I am going to ask, what's the story about her?
@@alejandrove3589 My earlier reply was the result of a combination of low mood, drinking, and a memory of a negative experience involving someone. This isn't the right place to post specific details.
The Verve were a great band, and that's something much more worthy of discussion.
@@travelandmusic725 Got it, let's stick with that then. No worries.
2024. Enjoy this banger! The world may be shitting itself, but we have our music to get us through it.
✊
This song is so underated.
Best male voice of the Brit pop era 👊🏾👊🏾
Keys to the World is one of the greatest albums ever composed. Well done Richard lad 👏👏👏
Wow I remember first time in London turned on the TV and this song was playing i never forget , I didn’t know any English at that time but everything in this music felt amazing
The Verve are just so so good ughh. Richard Ashcrofts Voice has a tone to it that's extremely mellow and sad yet calming at the same time.
Will those feet in modern times
Walk on soles that are made in China?
Through the bright prosaic malls
And the corridors that go on and on and on
Are we blind, can we see?
We are one, incomplete
Are we blind, in the city?
Waiting for lightning to be saved, yeah
'Cause love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I’m singing again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again
Will those feet in modern times
Understand this world’s affliction?
Recognize the righteous anger
Understand this world's addiction
I was blind, couldn’t see
What was here in me
I was blind, insecure
Felt like the road was way too long, yeah
'Cause love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm feeling again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again
'Cause love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that you’re feeling again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again
Will those feet in modern times
Walk on soles made in China?
Will those feet in modern times
See the bright prosaic mall?
Will those feet in modern times
Recognize the heavy burden?
Will those feet in modern times
Pardon me for my sins?
'Cause love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm feeling again
Love is noise, love is pain
Love is these blues that I'm singing again
Unbelievable talent and devastatingly pretty, so undervalued!!!
Richard Ashcroft one of the best singers in the world
Love you Richard Ashcroft 😍
Best comeback in British history
Just saw Richard Ashcroft at the Splendour fest. Without knowing the singer on the stage was from The Verve...their music kept taking me back somewhere, but I couldn't figure it out. I decided to beat the crowd rush and left early. While on the bus home, I connected the dots, and leaving that show early is now my biggest musical regret. This music is timeless. Badass!
Getting sweeter and sweeter every year.
Still in love with Richard Ashcroft and his voice ❤️
Lisa D grow up
absolute legend. one of the best British song writers of his generation
Adoro questo pezzo... La voce di Richard è unica.... 😉
What would happen if we all really loved one another?
That first "riff" always gets my attention, so evocative.
Reminds me of being a student in late 2000s, travelling to London on the train to meet up with my boyfriend during the summer holidays.
Fast-forward nearly 15 years and we are long since broken up (something I deeply regret now) and now I live in New Zealand. Definitely feels like a lifetime ago that I was a student rocking out to this tune!
Cool story
I love this song it's brilliant
A little big masterpiece!!
Masterpiece... Is right 🎶🎵🎤🎸
Ashcroft is a god in his own right hes unbelievable
The world wasnt ready for these guys, they were away head of their time, pure brilliance!
