  • I used to love this song when i was still alive...

  • AsSeenOnCCTV: nunca en mi vida me encontre a alguien que odiara a la musica de los ochenta!!!, de donde sacas eso? cada cual con su estilo pero la gran mayoria coincide en que buena sigue siendo la musica de esa epoca,!!!

  • Love the e-bow solo and the casual toss of said implement by Koppes. Great version of an excellent song.

  • The Church are my all time favourite Australian Band..since they began in 1980..I saw them countless times and was never disappointed..In fact,they are one of my favourites..world wide..Australia didn't seem to embrace this Band..I will never understand that...Bad Taste in Australia?..I would prefer to see them 'live' than 'ANY' Aussie Band..bar none..Thank F*** for the Internet..I can see and hear them whenever I want...:)..Thanks for your Music guys..XXX

  • @witchyliLL23 I was too young to see these guys when they began but have been a fan since 1988 and seen them alot. They were very big in Oz and still are. This vid is interesting. I thinks its when the record company thought they would be the next big thing in Italy. Steve Kilbey tells a great story of being put up in a 5 star hotel in Italy where all of the band's scrappy paisely shirts came back from the laundry looking amazing with new buttons and the holes & tears neatly darned!

  • I was in my early twenties in the eighties, everybody thinks that their era was the best, yes the fashion sucked but we didn't notice, but the alternative music scene was fabulous. We were just getting out the punk era and a lot of (GOOD) Australian bands sprung up all over. I loved the eighties and yes I do still reminisce.

  • Ooooooh! I wanna know who he's looking at @ 3:03. Ummppff!

  • The 80s were the best for music. So many great artist and music came out of the 80's. What people don't get is without the 80's you would not have the music now. Most is written by artist of that time. At least you had Musicians that played and wrote music. AL you have now is singers that cant write a tune.

  • Fantastic version of this song. Live music always sound better than recorded.

  • I've only seen the Church live twice...in small venues in late '82. Met and chatted to them both nights. Good guys and an excellent band...thanks for reminding me that I really need to see them again...soon!

    Great to see Richard Ploog once more. I miss his contribution these days. A bit like Bill Berry leaving REM. Wish he'd been playing drum kit rather than congas though!

  • I remember it being called "College rock" and "underground music". It was awesome stuff at an awesome time.

  • So nice to hear this again ...Pleasant and Peaceful Mellow song!..:-)

  • 3:03, someone got quite an affection look by Mr. K. :D

  • Nice to see Richard Ploog on drums

  • could somebody send me the link to this song in a not live not techno

    but in an original version

    pleeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaase

  • @Agakroete45 yes,i can

  • @beepollen1 You should make the trip to go seem them here in L.A Bee! :-) It's a pretty intimate venue and who knows how long these boys are going to still be touring given their ages and family situations etc. I totally envy you seeing them in 1986! The must have played a lot of stuff from Heyday which is such a great album. What venue did they play then?

  • 85494 OMG :(

  • Ploog was an extremely underrated drummer, and the band itself was always underrated. Good stuff here.

  • @scopapa33 I highly doubt Richard Ploog was underrated by anyone. Unknown maybe.

  • @Nigelxman keep doubting then, because he was where I am from.

  • The 80's was a great era, but these guy's really stood out!! The guitar work on those albums was extraordinary!! Willson-Piper and Koppes were masters of tone and echo!! And Kilbey's sultry voice was the perfect compliment. They will never become millionaires, but those of us who recognize the Church as the band they were will always enjoy whatever they put out. Cause it's usually good. Even after all these years!!

  • Probablemente mi tema favorito en directo suena genial

  • Excellent voice Kilbey so sexy and the guitar sounds spectacular, excellent live performance, love the church! 80s come back

  • The 80s was the last time arts and music tried to create something different ....look at the hairstyles today boooring , it was just fun to see the hairstyles back then , that amount of personality is lost , this-post internet- era is a mix-up of several decades

  • @chrisbaires no kidding! notice what a wide variety of different bands we had back then! originality, talent, catchy licks, awesome vocals etc. Nowadays, we have to deal with talentless losers like Lady GaGa! These people sing through computers and run their voice through so much shit, they all have that digitilized robot sound. They cant sing, plain and simple. They disguise their vocals and basically pole dance! Thats what has become of music. What ashame! We at least have our classics!!!

  • That was a great performance. Difficult performimg that song live.

  • God forbid they show a close up of the guitar player so I can learn how he plays it

  • @MrBuc128 Chordie.com has a real acurate tab of this song. Easy to play as it's only four chords. Am, Asus4, Fmaj7, G Have fun!

  • @ks6string Thanks.I actually do play this song with those chords but i just wanted to make sure that they played it the same way

  • I only sought this band out, while I was living in Turkey and only had the German tv music channel to watch, because he sounded quite like David Sylvian, as well as quite a few other songs of their album.

  • there was so good in the eighties,but on radio they play always the same crap from the eighties.....

  • ....such a mesmerizing voice.

    And to second the comment of "AsSeenONCCTV", it's so true that were TONS of great bands in the 80's. Elvis Costello and the Attractions, Wall of Voodoo, The Jam, Joe Jackson, Echo and the Bunnymen, X, Joan Jett & the Blackhearts, billions!

  • for those of you who dont' know what he played the guitar solo with its called an ebow. not super commonly used but they can give a cool effect at times.

  • @jonpianobass thanks... it sounded pretty cool to me...i've seen them a bunch of times and don't remember the "ebow" comin out.

  • @mrfiggins yeah people dont use them much, i saw a concert a few days ago and that was the first time i'd seen one used live

  • I'm  seeing them tonight!

  • Ace performance by the band!

  • I saw them at Jacksonville University in Jax, FL. 1988. Peter Murphy opened for them. They did several of their songs plus "Green Green Grass of Home". Great show.

  • just bought the best of great memories, the cover of the killers of this song can't reach this livetrack. well done!

  • greatist music ever made was the alternative 70-80`s rock..the commercial music went to hell in 72 when nixon won the election along with everything else in america while the alt music went to crap in the 90`s with heavy metal..as our society crashes the future will remember this music as our swansong and yes..i know the church are aussies..id give away everything i had to immigrate but i dont have anything..thank you george bush..check out jane siberry..kate bush

  • I love this song and his smile!

  • He's using a foot long vibrating double dong to play the guitar solo ! Ha Ha Ha !!!

  • that singer is the cutest guy ever

  • @bigpapi401 AAAAAYYYYYY pues Ñorron !!!!!!

  • @bigpapi401  - Steven Kilbey has the sexiest voice ever.

  • Great performance...And Steve Kilbey is so hot, as usual :)

  • Steve Kilbeys voice and looks really move me. The song and voice are rather haunting. Would love to touch that aussie. Come to me babe under the milky way tonight. nicemommy

  • Bellissimo pezzo, grandissimo gruppo...

  • anybody know what that thing he's playing the guitar solo with is? electric razor?

  • @kirbonite Its called an ebow. It sets up an electromagnetic field between the strings and the magnetics pickups that create sustained string vibration

  • @kirbonite Duuuhh thats a wireless mouse !!!!!

  • Always loved this band...I saw them at the University of Chicago in 1988 in this tiny theatre....so awesome!!!!!!!

  • UNreal have a tingly sensation watching brings back great memories. Terrific version

  • Saw the Church in 1988 in Athens, Ohio while attending Ohio University. They put a free concert and what a show it was. I would love to see them again. I miss that era and the post-punk/alt-rock that we grooved on long before it became fashionable and mainstream.

  • @astheticweeds - I was at that show! Brilliant! what an awesome band! I miss the post-punk/new -wave/alt generation as well. So much over -looked music. Going in search of Wire-Train.

  • (Answer to 'Nigelxman'). They're sitting like dummies (stunned), cos they've got the exact same band, only their bands name is- 'The Vatican'

  • The best music came from the 80's !!! I have always said so, love this song, the lead singer is dreamy, what happend to this group, anyone know??

  • They are still making wonderful music and still touring. They put on a kick ass live show.

  • I am so thankful to listening the radio when I was a girl in Europe. I loved them then and definetly still do now.

    Thanks for posting

  • Great tune thanx for posting!!Takes me back to the sk8 boarding era!!Long live rock

  • his voice amazing to hear back then. Amazing to hear again now. Brilliance.

  • Why are these Italians sitting there like mummies? Anyone?

  • saw this during several concerts while in Europe during the late 70's early 80's...they couldn't understand why the American GI's wanted to dance and move around during the performance. Probably a respect thing, ie; opera

  • exionem, your taste in music is dubious at best. Deff Leppard????? Duran Duran???? Foreigner?????? lol Yikes...Sorry dude but those bands don't deserve to be included in the same sentence as Crowded House and certainly not the Church!

  • I can't understand why people hate the music of the 80's. Sure, most of the mainstream music was crap, but it's always been that way, and there were loads of amazing bands out there: Church, Joy Division, the Smiths, the Cure, Pixies, the Clash, R.E.M and loads more.

  • The Cars

    Duran Duran

    Deff Leppard

    Crowded House

    Foreigner

    80´s music was sooooooooooooooooo much better than our so called "modern music"

  • Yeah you"re right...i"ve thinking exactly the same thing...and those bands you"ve mentioned kick ass

  • Because they only know about mainstream 80s music. Like you said there were legions of amazing underground artists in the 80s.

  • @AsSeenOnCCTV not to mention KILLING JOKE, SONIC YOUTH, THE SISTERS OF MERCY...

  • @AsSeenOnCCTV Anybody who says that the music from the eighties was crap doesn't know anything about music. 

  • @HotGeneration100 i agree with you.

  • @AsSeenOnCCTV ....Men Without Hats, Tears for Fears, English Beat, Blancmange, Ultravox, Japan, The Waterboys, Split Enz, Crowded House, Captain Sensible, Adam Ant, ABC, Haircut 100, Madness, the Pogues, New Order, Jesus & Mary Chain, Cocteau Twins....

  • @AsSeenOnCCTV People have forgotten how to just have fun and enjoy each other. Now it is only about who is tuffer, sluttier, richer, darker, and on and on. I have always said that the 80's was the last decade that music will ever see where joyful fun was the main objective of popular music.

  • @AsSeenOnCCTV Yeah, The Police, Dire Straits, Midnight Oil, Men At Work

  • @AsSeenOnCCTV -- I think there are more people out there who the 80's music than admit it. Where else would Glee steal their selections from? Today's music is void of imagination and life. The 80's ruled!

  • @AsSeenOnCCTV

    Main stream music of the 80s was not crap, unless you call Samantha Fox and Modern Talking main stream music.

  • Very nice recording, thanks for posting.

  • how old is this? check out the haircuts, shirts and the high waisted jeans on the MC

  • ALL the best bands turn up on these obscure european TV programmes.. You gotta love these people, thank you italy, spain, finland, norway, denmark etc etc etc!

  • Very good live version of a great song. I enjoyed this video.

  • Guitariist is using an E-bow to get that sound. You can see it in his hand--operates on a 9-volt battery--you sort of hover the thing near the string you want to vibrate. The E-bow has 2 electron magnets inside that straddle the string. They alternate on and off. When one mag is on, the other is off. These are turned off and on electronically rapidly. Makes it sorta sound like a violin bow is being used on the string-- and so the name E-bow (electronc bow).

  • curious sound from the guitar

  • viva la rai che portava all'Italia questo pezzo di cielo :D li amo

  • Che bella trasmissione che era DOC.

  • il pezzo con la cornamusa nell'originale è devastante...

  • that's my shit

  • i love the 80's...a great time for music..it was so real back then! man, how i miss those days...under the milky way :) fabulous vid

  • love this fukkin song, couldn`t remember the name of the song... i dedicate this to my wife...again, great song!

  • I LOVE THIS SONG!!

  • you surely ´havent`t heard anything about the church... go on their my space and hear something about them: you won`t tell bullshit anymore.

  • Ah the obligatory ignorant moron. There's one in every thread...

  • odd.  that reminded me of flock but you neither appreciate nor respect a brilliant band. i was in the music biz for 5 yrs. in nyc. britney, nysync, etc. "one trick pony" are you a fucking agent?

    rock on ass.

  • Sad. Sad. I'm sure you have a lot under your belt and you need to see a doctor. Drinking? Wow. Last 20 yrs. in NY. Who cares. 5 yrs. music biz. I grew up in Mpls. and Hawaii.  Then on to NY for yrs. I'm sure you are much smarter than I am. Have a good night!

  • get a life, dude...

  • yes, some years ago our national television made some good programs. today we only have that shitface of prime minister evry hour...

  • Great Song! Greetings from Germany!

  • Dang! What a good looking band!!

  • Love this Song!!!

  • My ex got me into this song, this still lasts.

  • Same for me. I feel so sad every time I listen to it.

  • Reminds me of senior year in high school and that summer....Good times, Great Song, Album and Band. Thanks for posting....this is what makes youtube the best !

  • What was that thing the guitarist used during the solo to create that fuzzed out sound? and why didn't he have to strum out the notes when he used it?

  • It's called an Ebow.

  • An ebow, very very cool. I will have to get one of these. I'm a guitar player, but I had never seen one of those before. Thank you.

  • kind of low energy compared to the radio version, still cool.

  • wow!

  • 12 string heaven

  • death4 you imbecile............look it up my friend

  • perfect song!!!

  • The lead singer was really cute, and had a great voice back then.

  • still is and still does!

  • His voice is even better now. They are touring the US as I write this. I just saw the first shows of the tour. Go see them if you have the chance.

  • Tearwave's version of Under the Milky Way is very good. Check it out on their second and last album Different Shade of Beauty

  • Mitch, thanks for posting this rare performance video. It is a unique performance, as all live shows should be. It is especially valuable on YouTube, because the audio is missing from other Church videos.

  • The 'Donnie Darko' and 'cosmic' videos are silent, so hopefully this teeny bit kitsch live version remains at least.

    Bongo Fury!

  • Bunch of Longhairs.

  • I knew this song was from my past when it showed in the movie "Dannie Darko". Not until now could I place it. Thank you! This is song is so much a part of me and I did not know why. I just remembered driving through Atlanta, listening to this song and wondering about those detours "despite my destination". And I did wonder what I was looking for.

  • PERFECT

  • Looks like some corporate hack has been busy disabling the audio tracks from all the other videos of The Church performing this song. Let's hope this live version stays up for a while. Dynamite song!

  • dear mitch547 thanks a lot for this gem!! Where the fuck was i when they played on this show? I'm italian and i didn't know about this!! i really missed a pearl :-)... thanks for posting this!

  • WOW! I've never seen THIS before the VHS tape I have only has Destination, Reptile and NSEW on it!

    This is NEW to me!

    Thanks!

    %^)

  • Thank you Mitch!

  • excellent. Not seen before
