Mew - Snow Brigade - live P3 Session

[jawneedanger]

The best rock band around now!

[kidd8k]

My arms retreat

I wish they were there

To hold you

[FlavoredDeath]

The 4/4 beat over the off time makes my jaw drop.

[Stdookie]

Hva slags amp bruker Bo Madsen her?

[Splishee]

I love how Jonas and Bo are two completely different performers. Bo has so much stage presence and energy while Jonas plays it cool... or maybe is just shy. Either way, it's an interesting contrast!

Mew. <3

[E3tiger]

How the hell do they play that intro???

[baramartin]

practice...? ;)

[E3tiger]

It was a rhetorical question..

[yoshi529]

i think its bass guitar on the record, but played on the guitar here.

[TeamBigTree]

its bass

[timthetortoise]

Pretty sure it's guitar since it continues throughout the verse while the bass does something else, live and on the record.

[recklessroad86]

@E3tiger Finger picking

[seifukusha]

@E3tiger I tried to figure that out too by watching alot of live shows. I thought it was slap bass or synths. Its slap guitar and slapback echo. He plays the song without a pick it seems.

[TearsForLosers]

Amazing!

[Clevedrengen]

the new album ^^ august 25th

[Clevedrengen]

August the 25 the album will be out.. or so ive heard..

[mithrandirbc]

i love jonas cool act... mew is soooo addicted

[FuniFrenger]

Jonas doesn't jump nor move around and i'm cool with it. Have you tried to sing while jumping or walking? It's hell. And even though i believe he'd be able to do it if he wants to, i think he's more of a peaceful/quiet person.

[vycadin]

hes always extremely focused on his singing just right, this is prob why he doesnt jump around

[Nutribal]

Chino Moreno from Deftones does that fine.

[Bemmer]

Chino has also fucked up his vocal cords plenty of times too from over exertion. =/

I'd prefer Jonas keep his vox safe. ^_^

Too pretty to damage. lol

[Nutribal]

Jonas is good and professional. No offence. The styles are just different.When a band perform live, it wouldn't sound exactly like the record. But Deftones does a good job a majority of times. There is a reason why, Deftones is a grammy-award winning band for best act on stage.

Chino hasn't fucked up any of his vocal chords. It is a part of their style which does not make them so limited like other bands nowadays. It is about enjoying Chino's voice.

[playswithpassion]

Chino Moreno is also a drunk prick at half of his shows and doesn't have anywhere near the talent or good nature that Jonas has.

[RtGKarma]

wow

i love mew

their music is great

(their drummer in my mind is remarkable)

they aren't bad live either. ^_^

[wwjd0388]

:( I love this band... But he doesn't have a whole lot of control when he projects.. He can sing quietly but when he try to belt notes out a little more he goes sharp

[nanerpants]

ya, seems like a hard style to pull off live.

[AnnaTheDream]

my arms retreeeeeeat, I wish they were there to hold youuuuuu.

This is such a beautiful song, Mew forever!

<3

[reza4200]

hvad fanden laver publikum!? ejnejnejnej! og de står endda forrest.. så er det egentlig lidt klart at Mew ikke rigtigt gi'r den hele armen, når publikum står og har den største stoneface på?! come on folks! rock nu lige til musikken!!!! de spiller ellers pisse nice live.

[kanafugl]

he's pretty shy.

Seen him two times, he sings great, but he don't look out to the audience.. But he's great anyway, because thats his style :D

[xMads1994]

They are also good live.

[GeoAl09]

sure jonas doesnt move around alot. but think about it, muses music is hard and ya know. they have songs that they can like rock out on stage and stuff like that. mew on the other is soft and ya know. not that im bashing mew cause i love mew! :]

but mew's music isnt really the kind where like everyone on stage can like move around and rock out and stuff.

[SirM4ds]

Amazing song! / Fantastisk sang!

[Dousch]

great song!

[dogeymon83]

This sounds like what I bought on iTunes. Is it????? I'm talking about the LIve Sessions iTunes exclusive.

[Acro987]

My guess would be no, what with the fans and all not being in the itunes version, but yeah, I bought the same one off itunes and it sounds pretty similar.

[MusicRelatedCandy]

I haven't got it, but it's possible that the recordings were taken directly from the instrument outputs to remove any audience noise.

[ZOMGitsXyndeeGEE]

The lead singer of Muse moves around a lot, and is able to sustain his vibrato, and other vocal talents, I think Jonas might be shy.

Mew is a grand band though.

[Rani9000]

also, it doesn't look that good when singers move around.. i mean, great performers like Robert Smith or Frank Black don't wiggle like monkeys.

[GeoAl09]

you listen to muse? i love muse! and Mew!.

[Looleefish]

Next to Peter Gabriel, Jonas Bjerre is the best live singer I've heard. This is nice, I want to be there when they come to Calgary... One day.

[CrudeBoy666]

he doesnt move a lot does he?

[inkalyn]

well, yeah. He needs to keep his voice steady I guess that's why.

[MMMuller]

true she did

[lazer59882]

you're a fucking moron

[sillyhippies]

well when they do live shows he makes them more amusing with lights and backdrops rather than his own stage presence.

[book17worm]

what kinda distortion pedal do they use for this song???

[Awesomesauces]

I think they use predominantly T-Rex stuff. Danish made pedals.

[inkalyn]

oh god, I just love the ending :DDD

[Hewno]

my goodness me i love mew, im their biggest fan lol (:

[ebplanetario]

its a hard that voice 4 live acts... they need to transmit the energy of the music through themselves

[ultrajoint]

be still for a moment...i hate jumpers

[diegomijares]

the performance of am i wry in this concert its a lot better. watch it.

[diegomijares]

Great song, great band, and yeah they need more energy, but i think it´s maybe an style and the kind of voice he use that match.

[chrisyeoh]

i think it's more fitting of him just standing there and sing. it's looks natural and empowering.

[ghostboat5]

i agree.

[stupidtakenusernames]

The Jonas kid doesn't move much, does he?

[narkiz]

It is because he really is SINGING.

[stupidtakenusernames]

You make it sound as if moving around means they're not really SINGING.

[FatFishes]

"shoegaze"

Research.

[ABrokenCitySky]

I'll find you somewhere

Show you how much I care

Know that there is no escape

From my snow brigade

that part is so beautiful

[esotsm54]

if you look the definition of mew on a dictionary it shoould say:

Mew: Life on its purest form

[themuffler]

hmmm they are good, love the sound. though i find their lack of energy annoying.

[deathblow99]

Its a trade off. Either stand there and not lip-sync or be wild and use a vocal aid.

[harlequinstar]

I love this song.

And and Jonas is damn good singer.

[LinnBollekinn]

their best song, and that's saying something!

[MewTheniRun]

Mew band who made me want to form band & play instrument!!! they're really good hope someday i can see they live!!!

[danimaxe]

mew i love you!!!!!!

[baramartin]

This is my favourite Mew song.

[Lilmichaelson]

@baramartin It was my favorite too, until I heard their other songs. Now I love too many.

[FrengerAndMuse]

Ohhh, I love this song!!!! I'd never heard a complete live version before, I'd seen just some playbacks... thx!!!! Mew: thanks for existing!!!!
