Here in 2023 the vocals are insane. Such charisma and presence in person. You know when he walks in the room! His voice and the enjoyment he seems to get from the music, is contagious. Saw them in early 80s and last year. His voice is much better, I think. I swooned like a little girl. I forgot how powerful he is in person. Love love love him!!❤❤❤ so lucky to have him and Tim.
@@stevemilker Bowie is the font of this British sound and look of the '80s, but each of the great groups did Bowie in its own way. This group is as great as any of them.
@@johnbonaccorsi5378 true, I totally forgot about this band and this summer my favorite song was “Heaven” I couldn’t stop playing it lol. This band toured Chicago this summer and I wanted to go see him in person but couldn’t make it was on a Sunday night.. if they came back I would go in a heartbeat
I saw this, crossing my fingers they would sound like they did back in the day...the melody and strategic pauses the solid drums, the complimentary bass, the subtlety beatiful keyboards, and that wonderful raspy deep voice... missed the sax, but, still wonderful
Richard's such a cool-ass ROCK STAR. Bummer there aren't videos with this much quality posted of them performing this song live back twenty years earlier, when they were hungry ferocious young cublings.
I miss the keyboard melodies of the studio version but on this live cut, you get to hear the bass runs clearer. One of my fav songs from the '80s. The Furs were ahead of their time and shook up quite a few heads. Richard Butler knew how to work a crowd. Nice post.
I will always LOVE this specific song and band! They do sing like more I like but this song makes me happy & puts me in such a great mood when I listen to it! LOVE THE PHYCHEDELIC FURS!
........LOVE how they dropped the strings down a half step and MUFF roughed them up much more raw than the movie version etc., this version blows the song into hyper-space for sure!!If they keep it this roughed up the crowds will flock to see them still......!!! Some bands just have "it", and the Furs are 1 of them that have it ! Fri., 1/12/18, 1:22a.m............................///////////////////////////////
high school memories,just love it might see them when times was about just having fun and hanging out with friends pretty in pink i really love this movie,molly ringwald was me
His distinctive 80s voice still resonates in 2019
Seeing them in November. Again!!
@@salvatorerizzo8640 Where are you seeing them at? I have been wanting to see them & I am running out of time.
Fantastic!!!
PRS guitars are not the right guitar for this song. It's too nice of a sound. Needs to be gritty
@@kojam1 Fenders are better for it?
They should already be in the R&R Hall of Fame.

His voice is still the same! Amazing
The Psychedelic Furs Hard Club Porto 15.10.19 - Lisboa ao Vivo 16.10.19
I bet! Saw them in ‘83, in their heyday! Would LOVE to see them again.
pretty in pink! high school memories...new wave, college radio...we lived through the best music ever!!!!!
So true...there will never be another 1980's.....and that's so sad because the USA can be great again with REAL leadership.
@@colderbeer 2019 called to say "OOPS!"
Agreed! Best era ever!
LOVE. Great band. Miss the 80's when life was simpler.
people lived in fear of nuclear war. Iran went to the dogs. mortgage rates were 12%. your brain has just decided it was a simpler time. it was not.
I forgot how cool this band was.. Blast back to the 80's....
Boy!! They really hit it out of the park here!! What a wonderful live performance!!
one of the best New Wave bands of all time. The Great Psychedelic Furs!
The voice is amazing and unique.
LISTEN TO INTO YOU LIKE A TRAIN AND WALK MY WAY....
My favorite Psychedelic Furs song ................... greetings of Perú ..
Wish the 80's music was now! This is classic!
Absolutely love his deep vocals nobody sounds like him at all, totally unique and for me such an iconic sound are PF.
His vocals are easy to listen to, aren't they?
Reminds me of Bowie a bit

@@stevemilker Yes. Really great.
Love the 80s music
The brilliant Psychedelic Furs, absolutely brilliant energy on stage and vinyl.
This dude is simply incredible! Voice just takes me back straight to the wayyyyy early 80’s! Music can’t ever be touched!!
I saw this, crossing my fingers they would sound like they did back in the day...the melody and strategic pauses the solid drums, the complimentary bass, the subtlety beatiful keyboards, and that wonderful raspy deep voice... missed the sax, but, still wonderful
My heart aches listenin to this beautiful song......takes me back to the eighties....when i was 16-17 years old in a small town in the uk.
I love seeing his broken voice tone remains the same over the years.
A pleasure to listen to 👍
Only him, could never confuse him with anyone! Obliviously sober and having a blast!
Richard and the Furs are true brilliance. Love his voice!
Great song great movie !!!
Ive had the biggest crush on Richard ever since I 1st saw them Iam 63 and still have a poster of him on my wall LOL
One of my favorite bands dedicating a song to my favorite film of all time
(PRETTY IN PINK+PSYCHEDELIC FURS=BLISS)
+Crow Quentin a lil overboard, no? good song, film ok, also
The song was released first and the movie was named after it.
The idea for the movie came cuz of hearing this song even.
It's great to see a performer enjoying himself so much the crowd feels that also.
This is how it's done! Pay attention youngsters, practice practice practice because this is how it's done!
I will always love him and his voice always takes my breath away! Love you 💖
They may be older, but still are those young guys who I' ve eared in my teenagehood. 😍 💓🎸🎶👏
Wisest comment 💜
Richard Butler stood next to me whilst watching My Morning Jacket at the Hop Farm Festival. Couldn't believe it. Love them so much!
Seeing them tonight at the Catalyst in Santa Cruz, CA. Hope they're still good.
Great place to see them! Such great memories
Timeless
80's 4ever!!!
Amazing drummer!!!
YO SOLO TENIA 20 AÑOS DE EDAD ALLA POR 1984 LINDA EPOCA 😊
Second greatest song of the 80's!
What was the first?
Richard's such a cool-ass ROCK STAR.
Bummer there aren't videos with this much quality posted of them performing this song live back twenty years earlier, when they were hungry ferocious young cublings.
Love his voice.
Just wonderful memories come tumbling back... Thank you!
Man the lead singer still has it!
Psychedelic Furs Part of My Life
Simply perfect. They nailed it. Well done.
Love
He looks & sounds just as good as in the 80tys. Great song.
Wow, the Furs stay fab♡♡♡♡
80's one of great new wave bands

TIMELESS CLASSIC HIT
This song always leaves me feeling so sad.
Me too... Great band....they still got it!! 😎👍
Like most people I'm here for the nostalgia. What a time. It was, but not necessarily for the better.
professionals.
pure class.
Indeed she is! 👛
Timeless Classic ❤️
The dark sarcasm, raspy tongue-in-cheek vocal delivery against the moody polyphony...
I'm so happy they played the original and not the terrible version featured in the Pretty In Pink film.
MAGIC!!
Brilliant. Thanks for posting.
The one who insists he was 1st in the line is LAST to remember her NAME! - Can somebody post the lyrics, here? (Especially the ending). TQ!
they put on a great show
Got to see them last month and it was the best show ever
EXCELLENT !
Stunning song
Immaculate, beautifully written
Rest in peace Mars Williams
Always loved this tune! (and Molly) ;-)
I could not take my eyes off this video. LOVED it seeing this live on youtube.
Beautiful vocal delivery!
Absolutely brilliant!!! My god!
Wow sounds great❤ I like when bands don't have to lip synch their music
Very pretty!
Cool very cool
I will always LOVE this specific song and band! They do sing like more I like but this song makes me happy & puts me in such a great mood when I listen to it! LOVE THE PHYCHEDELIC FURS!
Genius 💞

LOVE MY 80's ---- dang kids now days don't know real MUSIC!!

They'll be in Philly July 2022!

Verdad
Reminds of me of Bowie a bit, so good!
Love this song ❤ xx
high school memories,just love it might see them when times was about just having fun and hanging out with friends pretty in pink i really love this movie,molly ringwald was me
Tolle Performance, ich liebe dieses Lied und den Film.
This is one of my mosst fav songs
Still great. Thank you.
Great performance, love it!
These lyrics are really strange/offbeat and Richard is the only man who can get away with making it sound absolutely brilliant!
Love the track his voice reminds me of Nigel Farage the way he talks.
They sounded great!
galing! kung ano boses nung 80's, ganun pa rin hanggang ngayon!
Butler has that great voice!
Perfection 2023
Simply amazing!
His voice is kind of like bowie- I see that influence. Bowie influenced many, especially the CURE and the Runaway- Cheri loved him!!!
Bowie + Lydon
Maybe
@@snappyjohn9122
Sounds and looks like both!
Peter Murphy blows them all away. It least vocally.
