I can't tell how many people were in the audience, but Jarvis had every single one of them in the palm of his hand for the last five minutes of the song. I love how no matter what performance of this song I see, it is always different. It's the sign of true performance art and talent. Modern-day hacks could learn a lot from this.
@NickInDetroit thats the brilliance of this song. EVERY at the show no matter where it is played will sing along with it. If i wanna hear it without the crowd, i will listen to the cd.
@NickInDetroit I think i may have been at this gig - certainly saw them at the academy around this time. I was mortified as my friend was singing her lungs out and I knew she would be pissing people off. Needless to say have avoided going to gigs with her ever since.
Is it just me, or do fans singing along make it seem more fun to watch? I mean, can you think of Cheap Tricks "I want you" with out those Japanese kids?
VEEEEEEEEEEEEERY FEW PEOPLE TURN ME ON AS MUCH AS HE DOES. AND, BABY, WE'RE TALKING BIG SHOTS, HERE. WE'RE TALKING MARK LANEGAN, WE'RE TALKING ADRIEN BRODY...

Me too, it just keeps getting better and better!
Most days start with this one. Fookin' brilliant met.
2021
Love this!!! 2022... anyone else? ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely brilliant live version.
This is what going to concerts and viewing live performances is all about - outstanding... loved the 5 minute jam session in the middle of the song.
A defining moment of a generation. Stunning.
one of my heroes, no question
it's 2021 now, in the middle of a global covid pandemic and I'm old. this song brightens up my everyday.
It doesn't get any better than this! Fookin brilliant!
Agreed, probably the best pop song ever written..alongside where the streets have no name and sometimes by Erasure.
double thumbs up in 2013, such a performance
And that, Ladies and Gentleman is known as nailing it.
Probably one of the greatest videos on you tube ever. Oh to go through the curtains to that. I AM DONE.
just wonderfull song, so strong and emotional...brit pop no 1
What a song !!! Best song EVER !!!
I love pulp
best version of this song ever!!!!!!!!!!!

still listening to this in 2013
Amazing song and performance!
jarvis i love you
u for ever
Best lyrics ever, but it took some time till I understood them ;-)
Should re-release this. In the current climate there is no better song.
Pulp, Oasis, Blur, The Stone Roses, Suede, The Smiths, etc. IS THERE ANYTHING BETTER THAN BRIT POP?
Dangdut
Wow! Fantastic!

@scantilyplaid the end of the year 1995.
@hallospacegirl the term is a "wide on"
Best part about this song was just before it, when the guy shouted get on with it and Jarvis owned him =D
Is it just me, or do fans singing along make it seem more fun to watch?
I mean, can you think of Cheap Tricks "I want you" with out those Japanese kids?
