[reshamhouserecording]

this is the real shit :O

[eobo1]

to anyone who does not know plzz watch the film Un chien andalou

[runindie24]

Kim Deal's voice is sex.

[notnowliberty]

un chien, et al

[MrAlexandregallo]

This concert occured the day before I was born. Thank you, Pixies.

[MrRadioactivepower]

Kim is so beautiful in those days.

[card144]

@locote031 why u say that fucking shit? Foo fighters is came from nirvana ... he sing more or less like pixies , hes sing grunge u remember? Assh0le.

[42578chris]

cobain couldnt hang because this band ...right?

[s2khawk]

pulled out "Doolittle" cd for first time in a year...its been going round and round in my truck for the past 3 weeks and may keep spinning another 2 weeks...

[catfeces]

the pixies piss brilliance.

[splinter360]

You know Nirvana attended this gig. They snuck in. And while Pixies played this song , Dave turned around and said to Kurt: "I hope one day i'm in a band thats big enough to play Brixton academy.

[inglishbulldog]

@splinter360 Bullshit.

[splinter360]

@inglishbulldog Dont call something bullshit just cause you don't know. If you scroll through the comments you'll see other people have said the same. Better yet search it up?? or shall i personally link you?. Either way, the only thing thats bullshit is you calling this bullshit.

[1111distefano]

the pixies are so grooooovey

i am un chien andalousia

[Kaedemoon267]

These guys are awesome in concert. Fantastic band and one of my favorites!

[Zwikster]

I wish Frank Black yelled during the beginning of the 2nd verse instead of that quieter voice... but still good vid

[timbsytimbsy]

Vocals really remind me of Gordon Gecko of the Violent Femmes

[EdwoodCA]

@timbsytimbsy Gordon Gano. Gordon Gecko was the character from "Wall Street". Common mistake, I'm sure. ;-)

[ventures58]

It's cool when he says "I am un chien andalusia." Because there is a town in Alabama called Andalusia.

[itarethetroll]

@ventures58 It's the Spanish province to which he's referring

[YesItsOurs]

@itarethetroll He is referring to the film Un Chien Andalou that was a collaboration between Salvador Dali and Luis Bunuel. There are numerous references to the film, such as the chorus and "slicing up eyeballs, I want you to know"

[locote031]

fuck the foo fighters

[JonathanNevin]

@locote031 as if you would say fuck the foo fighters, both bands are great in different ways, if you cant respect real talent your taste in music is limited or flawed.

[Blink41ColdRomance]

@locote031 screw you pixies and foo fighters are both good bands. dave grohl is the man

[oiergasdn]

@locote031 what? why?

[locote031]

@oiergasdn i dont know....... overrated i guess

[oiergasdn]

@locote031 really? overrated? you should give a good listen to them. They're awesome. It's defenitely a good listen

[ballequaker]

@locote031

No fuck u

[HermanTheNinja]

@locote031 "fuck the foo fighters"...??? anyone who thumbs you up is a moron.......nirvana, foos' & pixies are equally awsome.

[locote031]

@HermanTheNinja nirvana and pixies are awesome......

[DeadJ0ker27]

@locote031

What's so bad about the foo?

[KreutzVids]

@locote031 what makes you say this hmm

[SuperChibbles]

@locote031 fuck u

[tootoot123]

@locote031 wtf bro?

[Chwzehk]

I first heard debaser 10 years ago and I still don't know what it means to be a debaser. :\

[IDrumNaked]

"6 dislikes" ... this is why we can't have nice things

[corpsemunger]

Dave Grohl was in the audience somewhere, this made him think "I want to do that" - Such an influential band.

[MrMunkeyfoot]

@corpsemunger ... and then forgot that and made boring m.o.r. cock rock instead

[corpsemunger]

@MrMunkeyfoot Nah, I like the Foos a lot - they are really good

[minka7575]

kim rox!

[minka7575]

kim rox

[sleve0]

Kim was so cute then...and Frank wasn't so damn fat!

[Paperhouse81]

This song is a reference to "Un chien andalou" By Dali and Bunuel. Weird movie.

[Element4078]

god every song jhust has a great hook all the songs are just great

[YaddahYaddahYaddah13]

the rhythm guitar was out of tune, as well as the lead, but not as severe as the rhythm o.o

but franks lyrics were kinda iffy.... there were some parts where his enthusiastic scream was completely amazing :D other parts he sounded very unenthusiastic...... but loud quiet loud ya know, thats the pixies :D

[tarq13]

6 people dont want to be a debaser

[UAMaverick]

This is such an intense performance, I love it. 1:46-1:50 is epic.

[funkysteveve]

dave grohl mentioned watching this peformance at the NME awards 2011!!!! :D

[corpsemunger]

@funkysteveve oh yeh! - i didn't notice this was Brixton Academy,



[MuSeMaN1000]

nirvana where in the audience.

[CleverTrevor101]

Tuuuuuuuuune!

[jazzmasterjesus]

kim looks amazing... frank is in the middle of a transitional period as far as looks go.

[BillyNilsson]

I love this version so much! Kim looks so hot and i love how Charles does his "ha ha ha ho" :)

[MentalTeleprosy]

eye

[BillyNilsson]

DEBASER!!!!!!

[frazierxxx]

wasnt a fan of this song till i heard it live now my favorite

[csierral]

Un perro andaluz

[PanchoWatkins]

weón, que temazo... saludos perros

[RandomVideos7818]

wow....the white tele

[csierral]

Kim es bella hasta ahora, porque canta sonriendo.

[junkhead1992]

[sammykins1234]

Brilliant!

[psychedeliquesound]

i looove <3

[cammaman1]

i heart you black francis

[radiotomi]

la banda sonora de nuestras vidas.

[cifolotto]

When Kim says Debaser I come every time

[vaffanculoutube]

@cifolotto ahahahahahaha :D

[killergirbot]

@cifolotto and i thought something was wrong with me im glad im not the only one

[albertodesalvo]

Esta es una de las bandas más decisivas en la historia de la música moderna. Una de esas pocas a partir de las cuales las cosas cambian completamente. Este es un tema emblemático, diferente a todo y que 20 años después sigue sonando brillante y nuevo. Gracias Pixies!

[roquentin82]

@albertodesalvo GRACIAS PIXIES POR VENIR A LA ARGENTINA.LOS PUTOS AMOS DE INDIE ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! VIVA PIXIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[KaiChippi]

funny, guitar out of tune

[Mayfinder]

What kind of mic is that?

Like the one that gives the intercom type voice.

[bigmuffexpress]

@Mayfinder

It's a Shure Green Bullet harmonica mic, Kim uses one too on the intro to Cannonball by The Breeders! 'cept she runs hers through a boss ds-2 distortion pedal

[Mayfinder]

@bigmuffexpress thank you:)

[bksug2009]

I prefer this Debaser live to one after reunion

[stuartdv]

They opened with Debaser at Newcastle Mayfair back in the days - crush barriers collapsed before they finsihed it- Pixies went off for ten minutes while crush barriers were removed. Black Francis walks back on stage "Same Again?" he says - Too effin right- happy Days indeed- brilliant!

[runindie24]

I've never heard Black Francis perform this song the same way twice. He's always so original with each show

[00roastedlampost00]

12 days after I was born :)

[oiergasdn]

uau.

he screams

[huntedgraywhale]

I'm scared to imagine what would happen if these guys never existed...no Modest Mouse...lord. Or at least what I've come to love as Modest Mouse.

thanks Pixies

[sarturo007]

Kim Always look good!

[AngusYoungGboy]

Shame Joey Santiago has a slightly flat 3rd string :P Otherwise, brilliant!

[hensly77]

@AngusYoungGboy good ear man I would of never noticed it until you said something haha

[n00bJesus]

way to not ever try at fucking all, Francis. this was before you got old.

[1giblesp]

Beautiful vocals be Kim.

[holyhelo5speak]

god fuck stop saying their good this guy sounds like hes taking a painfull shit with chunks of popcort scraping against the inside of his ass... this band fucking annoys the hell out of me

[ttraynor1]

@holyhelo5speak Then: BEAT IT!

[TaBB3rNackle92]

Goddamn, They Were and Are The Best Band Ever. They influenced allmost all the bands today.

[mrfudgeyhead]

Doolittle is just so majestic and album. It would be a space lion centaur if it were any physical living entity. It just rocks the whole way through, so hard.

And though they aren't the best looking band, they have just a heartwarming attractiveness. You just have to smile when you hear it.

[charlieenders]

oh man look at those ridiculous 80s instruments

[Wontonsoupface]

Yeah, Andalucia is a place in southern Spain. This song is about the movie Un Chien Andalou, a surrealist short film made in the 1920's (i think) by Salvador Dali and Man Ray.

[duskostrasni]

@Wontonsoupface luis bunuel, man, not man ray..

[taloyoak]

I wish I was an Adulterator

[dronesong]

love how the guitar is outa tune

[kasraman]

her voice is so arousing

[bosshendrix]

perfect!

[decoreh]

i' ve always love the kim's fragile voice, sound almost like crystal.

would imagine a diferent person when you listen to it by first time

[jhonnyrotten1986]

this is one band that as much as i listen to them, it just never gets old or worn out, there sound is so unique from evryone else's style. A band like this come's once in a blue moon :)

[SUPERPLYTNT]

Got Me A Movie, ah hah hah hoh

[cappstv]

I have this on VHS tape, i dont know if they ever release this as a dvd, it is kinda rare to find.

[rhcp871000]

kim

[Alannbitchh]

Best part is at 1:10

Got Me A Movie, ah hah hah hoh

Slicin up eyeballs ah hah hah hoh

Girlie so groovy AH HAH HAH HOH!

DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU BUT I AM UN CHIEN ANDALUSIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MajorHalman]

@Alannbitchh Don't hang me for this but is "andalusia" a place?

[beatlehardy]

pixies changed my life : tom yorke radiohead

[CobainInChains]

Man this concert is great!! where can i get the dvd??? pixies were really original, i can see how cobain would get inspired by them, there was nothin like pixies at that time. I mean, i think it has the british indie or radiohead kind of sound but pixies came first. Really cool band

[RafaelJackmout]

Francis looks totally mad.

Awesome band!

[39chevpickup]

What new album?

[TheSicDominator]

The pixies are THE shit. Hopefully the new album will be as awesome as the rest :D.

[doggplasma]

I thought Frank should have stuck closer to the studio cut wit the lyrics.

[firstcat]

That is the Green Bullet microphone, made by Shure. It is a low-quality mic that has a tinny, distorted sound. It is mainly used by blues harmonica players. Kim Deal also uses this mic in The Breeders, most notably in the intro vocals for 'Cannonball.'

[how47635]

does anybody know what the little thing hanging off the microphone that he screams into is called? the answer to this question could possibly save my life... and i would also like to comment on black francis's body style. i aspire to his level of fat powerfulness.. the man is big like a country and he moves like a cat. screams like one too.. unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately, for me, my genetic makeup has made me tall and rather thin. and not powerful at all

[rustedtin]

I like watching Francis Black slowly morph into his fat bald self.

[rustedtin]

Fuck I meant Black Francis or possibly Frank Black

[iloveslideking]

Pixies from their golden years. Awesome band, one of my all time favorites!

[Apethantos]

Pixies don't "have" golden years. Every year the Pixies play, is a golden year :)

[rotofilyt]

Kim's got the Mom Jeans

[MushroomP1llowz]

woah i want that telecaster!

[Copey0009]

It's impossible to listen to this song loud enough

[Denm2]

OMG I feel the same way I put this as loud as I can on my car and I'm like hmm not loud enough. :D

[SchmockwithCream]

wow i just realised this song actually relates to the movie " un chien andalou" from 1929!

"slicing up eyeballs", never got that part,now i do, thanks wikipedia!

[gocsa]

Kim looked good in 1991:)

[matgasne]

so did i :(

[Dubhuir]

aww =(

[groundjazz]

@matgasne hahahah



[ciglieggia]

@gocsa Kim IS the coolest :)

[Mat5983]

@gocsa she always look good what do you say

[docfraktal]

@gocsa

Maybe Frank Black, or Black "Francis" look not good in 2010,business restaurants are dangerous

[79CRMB]

@gocsa Kim ALWAYS looks good :)

[TheToastBrothers]

Frank Black + (Kim Deal X David Lovering) + Joey Santiago= FUCKING GENIUS!!!

[farizzal]

why doesnt joey just tune his guitar?

[MusicFromJoey1]

Definatily not one of their best performances,

But still okay!

[hwonk80]

Silversun Pickups, Sonic Youth and The Pixies....all in just over a month....FUCKIN' A!

[cccatering]

kurwa zajebista muza ale czemu sie tak spasli,jebane grubasy jezu od razu widac po nich upływ czasu

[cannabisabuser]

Sam jestes "jebanym grubasem". Troche Frank nabyl na wadze, ale reszta dobrze wyglada.

[JoeFox23]

I would kill for tickets to the Boston show. Luckily I can just buy some.

[brandonclayflores]

kim has a beautiful voice and joey kicks

[raiduk]

Sounds weird at 1:48 when he screams it twice, don't ya think ? :-/

[Suppeelsker]

It's weird. I agree. Okay version, the song rocks, but the album version is better!

[TheNotagain]

Debaser,one of frank's blackst.

[u2forinterpol]

frank black made lumberjack shirts look cool

[pinballwizurd]

love the pixies

[Anargie]

I'm not really in to woman but god I love Kim...

[doodleAnoodle]

beter then the album version..

[messaprop]

What are you arguing about? Isn't this just one of the best songs you've ever listened to? Just enjoy the music, guys! The only thing that remains at the end is that awesome feeling that you're alive. And they knew how to do it.

[rsuandrade]

Simply PERFECT!!!!!!!!

[danijauskas]

LOL

[Idiotpieguy1969]

GIGANTIC DEBASER LEVITATE ME TONYS THEME TAME THE HOLIDAY SONG NIMRODS SON WHERE IS MY MIND SLIVER HERE COMES YOUR MAN W.O.M. (UK SURF) Are ALL my favorite pixies songs.

[92bibiche]

it's your life....

[halomademepoor]

what the hell is a debaser

[dudemandude999]

what the hell is a faggot

[McGuinty1]

go watch "Un Chien Andalou" and you'll find out

[pinkeone01]

To debase someone means to make something more inferior or weak. A debaser is one who does that

[stonavich]

This gives me tingles :)

[DaniellaSomalia]

they deserved so much more recognition and lpays

doolittle is such a fantastic album of theirs

[Mineav]

Joey's guitar is obviously a bit flat on a string or two, but I thought it sounded pretty good, over all.

[mrkemrk]

Just noticed farrizal said the exact same thing. lol

[jo7dan118]

deal is a babe

[CHARLY3956]

MUY BUENA CANCION VIVA PIXIES

[scottiec2002]

jeez... i'm bouncing around somewhere near the front!

[frayededge00]

Best love band I ever saw. Fucking stunning!

[brinthansen]

the only similarity pixies have to AC is frank and Aveys screaming

[NinetiesYouth]

It sounds like an engine revving. There's a great analogy.

[NinetiesYouth]

Black's guitar sounds wonderous...and listen to that chopped up rhythm. This is the best song ever.

[Jejeeeje]

la mjor version de eta cncion es la estudio, aunk igual si los veo en vivo cn esa cancion pulento y djo la kga y wea ^^

[shatteredlamp12]

that les paul is hideously out of tune

great otherwise, love the voice!

[farizzal]

dude seriously it always is

it pisses me off their so good but the guitarist cant just tune his guitar

[JDuncanM1369]

Oops. Sorry. Didn't mean to rate your comment good. You're a fucking fat ass.
