  • hey what's the name of this live performance? did he play anymore songs on this live session?

  • che bellissima versione..the verve 

  • nick mccabe one of our greatest guitarists so subtle and sublime love his style of playing

  • ashcroft wow man he just totally owned the whole stratosphere there for a moment in time

  • I come here to feel it inside my soul.

  • ME Distes Ganas de Escuchar a Air

  • This is the best, what a beautiful song....Richard is looking the part here....think this is when he got married. Trippy songs or ballads, they are all the greatest.

  • Everytime I hear this song I feel less "alone".

  • just a feeling inside my soul, this is what u call real talent.

  • Shivers...... thats all

  • thegoodteacher(dot)com

  • still to this day a get tingles wenever i listen to richie.memories of my teenage years of madness roll back n to think wot it would of bn like without the verve,oasis n the phonics in ma life.if rich ,kelly jones n noel made a band music would b back to its best.raw emotional n most of all it b about the music. bring back the days wen music was a magnet to the ears that u jst couldnt help listening to and stand in amazement as sir richard leads the way!!!lol

  • forever richard ashcroft

  • check out my cover of on your own, let me know what u think

  • where is this

    

  • This is music.

  • ..... 

  • you said it well.... "Beautiful"....

  • anyone know where this is from and where you can watch the whole thing ?

  • true music, true feeling :)

  • i love richard's look

  • I've seen this show live on MTV.. thanks God i've found the video.. Amzing

  • Dime lo que ves Fue un sueño? estaba yo en el? La vida parecia tan obscena, asta que esto se acabo ¿Quien sabe? Todo lo que quiero es alguien que puede llenar el agujero. En la vida sé Entre la vida y la muerte, cuando no hay nada ¿Quieres saber? Usted viene por su cuenta Y te vas por tu cuenta Olvidate de los amantes que conoces Y de tus propios amigos Dime si es verdad, Que te necesito, te estas cambiando He visto este camino an
  • @yoshua6969 Demasiado esta canción.

  • i am so in love with him....

  • lyrics of this song are one of the most beautiful lyrics ever..

  • the rolling stones can DIE for all I care they're part of the reason for one of the verve's splits because of bittersweet symphony and the hole violin thing.

  • Ahh Jesus Richard what happened?

  • the verve were class but as for the nugget that said oasis are shite get a fekin life the second time i seen the verve was in 1993 they were top of the bill oasis were the first act on then acetone then the verve and the rest is history!!!!!!!! richard ashcroft is amazingly talented and yes liam gallagher is a fuckin knob noel was oasis cant wait for his solo stuff

  • one a the best voices in indie music ever,beats ian brown and liam any fucking day

  • I swapped a Steriophonics (1st album) god knows the title of it, for The Verves Northern Soul, canny bit of business i'd say!

  • This song feels like home! Simply stunning!

  • e fu cosi' che mi innamorai della band...

  • magic....

  • This is a stunning version. It's such a shame us Verve fans world wide have had to endure ANOTHER split and as a result have no idea as to if/when they will ever play together again. Glastonbury 2008 showed what they can do.

  • @Valdivia9494 it s you.

  • love love love this song!

  • i just fucking love that "we provide the fireworks..." thing in the beginning. listening to this so often, i got used to it.

  • still the greatest song Ashcroft ever wrote, followed closely by History.

  • EPIC!

  • verve run shit ashcroft /mccabe 4 ever

  • i met ashcroft last week. he's a nice guy. he signed my gibson jumbo. i went to his gig the next day. he uses epiphone acoustics live, and the strings kept snapping. this live version is incredible.

  • @theinck

    Jealous!!! Wud be great to get an autograph and photo wi a proper legend!

  • @Buckets321 i forgot to get a photo though. he was running late for his recording session, so he was in a hurry. i had my camera in my pocket ready to go, and just completely forgot. i was too much in shock, i froze. and the signature on my guitar was done with a shitty old marker that was running out. o well. at least I met him. My teacher says that the drummer for his new band laid down a track in one take. he put his sticks down and walked away, because he knew himself it was a perfect take.

  • love this ..always have .. and adore this album..i always defend rich's solo stuff..but still thank god, we had the verve..nothing comes close..not listened to this song in a long time... but, when you do, your right back there..McCabe and Ashcroft together.. were something else.... beautiful song... yeah.. memories...!!!!!

  • I noticed this is from MTV's 120 minutes..so where can I get the entire show??

  • this version is really wonderful.

  • just to say the verve are the best band in the world aswell ashcrofts own stuff, ALONE WITH EVERYBODY is propbably the best for me but thats not to say the other are crap because there NOT......! ok then all the verve & ashcroft are all GOOD....! there was a live album, i had ages ago called URBAN MIYTH(i think thats how u spell it), which is just alot of live verve songs. i would love to have that again so if anyone out there has it just tell me where u got it from thank....!

  • it dosent matter who is better (oasis or the verve), if you like there songs, listen to them and breath it in

  • just a perfect song! <3 and Ashcroft such a cutie :D

  • Jesus wept

  • just about as good as it can possibly get

  • @robrocks34 so true, beautiful , beautiful lyrics, everything about it, just melts my heart, Rich still the man, after all these years.

  • @ABITTERSWEETGIRL how his lyrics don't melt everybodys heart is beyond me. lyrical f@@king master in my eyes

    '' And the world don't stop

    There is no time for cracking up

    Believe me friend

    Cause when freedom comes

    I'll be long gone

    You know it has to end''

    just amazing

  • @robrocks34 .. havent listened to that song in a long time...but yeah, Rich gives you all hes got, bands come and go, seen many a gig, but nothing fills me with more emotion than Rich, On your own, is in my top 5

  • @robrocks34  Weeping Willow xD, great song

  • Good god , Richard Ashcroft melts me!! He is such a beautiful creature ;-)

  • I love Oasis when I'm feeling up beat but the Verve is a more complex and mature band. Plus they have some top songs!

  • theres plenty of bands who dont even get the recognition to earn respect off people. oasis were that sucessful and people disliking you a is part of success.

  • The only comparison between the two bands should be the go of the lead singers. No band in th world could've touched Verve at their peak. They were unstoppable. Then, they fuckin blew it. BIG TIME. Listening to the guitar in this song is what Verve were about. McCabe was the driving force. They could've been the best, but they weren't.

  • Oasis and the verve are two different bands. No comparison.

    Both as good as each other in what they do in my opinion

  • quality comment..

  • theres room for all.

  • Comment removed

  • love this song..makes my heart ache..

  • hahahahha vengaaaaa que estas tonto

  • you're right, i do love oasis, but this is different. just more soul in it I'd say, a kind of sincereness. oasis is a lot about profiling

  • what shall i do? it reminds me, he reminds me... the sound of his voice, the way he sings is like the way i feel towards you

  • Ohhh my God.....pffffffff, my soul is singing this masterpiece!:| BRILLIANT! Ashcroft= LEGEND!!!!

  • 2:37 ...what a warm feeling ..

  • ive always loved this song.. it has everything...pity it also has bad memories for me as well.. but i dont let them spoil how much i love this song...

  • Thank you Richard & The verve for this!! Just a feeling inside my soul.

  • Oooohh myyy loooord..........

  • how very true you are, in that statement, Ashcroft bears his soul always... thats what i love about him...

  • amazing richardddddddddd

  • how very true, yes ashcroft writes with such passion, and from his heart, letting you know his every upper most feelings, his angst, and heartaches, yes im so blesssed to have seen them many times, and will never forget them...

  • as it began here, so it ends...a beautiful song of memories..

  • excelente. Linda Version.

  • He is beautiful here.

  • as he is always.. this is a beautiful version...

  • this song has always been in my top 3 verve songs, always has, now it will always mean so much more.. tuesday 21 july 09. this song introduced me to somone who ill never forget.. xxx

  • As usual...a beautiful performance.

  • just perfect. legends.

  • anyone know if there are any more videos from this performance?

  • there is a version of This is Music, but i think that it has been deleted.

  • peace or  good intentions!!!

  • I love Richard Ashcroft!!!

  • dont we all hes a lyrical genius

  • fantastic version.

    the best one.

  • yeah thats right..this song is so haunting..i adore it..

  • i second that! in my opinion, this really is their best version of this song. the acoustic one is damn good too.

  • @mariano1587 Agreed. I think the studio version is annoying, but thankfully I saw this when it was broadcast. It made me a Verve fan for life. Only a short time later, we were blessed with "Urban Hymns".

  • so it ends as it begins....ill always love this song..always have..always will

  • Stunning performance by one of the greatest bands ever.

  • Really this song makes me shiver...

    I just feel in love...

    Incredible...

    How can u be so powerfull just with a melody and a voice ????

  • How is this for the most beautiful, underated tune ever...

  • Really I DO LOVE this man, Richard...

    I love his face,his voice, his sensibility, the way he's implicated in what he sings, and this melody, so sweet, so deep...

    Thanks to Richard and his band for that real pleasure ***

  • agreed :)

  • Life seems so obscene til it's over..

  • "want some one who can fill the holes in the life i know",BUZZIN x

  • wo my lord im sittin here on my own,...........not eney more,ww x

  • The Verve are my favourite band...Nirvana push them close for me but 'Mad Richard' edges it for me...love everything about them...love their 10 min records, loved their more pop stuff (Urban Hyms). Nobody 'sings' better than Rich Live i reckon. Always sounds perfect.

  • i love that bloody comment....mad rich is a lyrical genius....one on his own...lol

  • How the hell you could not love this song...This is real music..Awesome!! 10+ And the live voice is crazy!

  • this sounds ace live,great lyrics...!!!

  • This song touches my heart, I just love it. And Richard´s voice is gorgeous.

  • could he be any better i think not

  • He is gorgeous....and so is his voice....I never get sick of The Verve

  • So much better than the album version!!! 5 stars!!!!!!!

  • ahhhhh imagine listening to this song devastated and heartbroken!  i cant wait to be in that state!

  • it's horrible man, trust me

  • Definitely....I just broke with my girl after 4 years together and when I hear this song... :-( Sorry about my horrible english

  • Why do want to be in that state?

  • ahahaha

    ...yeah, wheres a shitty moment when you need one

  • nice red strides there RICHARD...

  • she would be a complete loser if she listened to your sensitive comment. Thats some compassion. let me guess, your a Christian?sounds like something Jesus would say

  • how i wish i live where u live so i cud see you dear!

  • i really really love this song...

    i can listen this all over and over again!

  • as i have... :)

  • this song makes me think of all my mistake's.

  • Where is all 120 min?

  • Great song off a great record.

  • Life seems so obscene til it's over..

  • This song never gets old. So powerful.

  • brilliant verve is best

  • this song makes me smile and maked me wanna kill myself at the same time....pretty special

  • i love this song...

  • I can't believe this song wasn't a hit in the UK, it's fucking great

  • Amo esta canción ♥

  • beautiful

  • Wooooooooooow ♥

  • one of my favourites song ever

  • brilliant!

    I love the way they can play with my feelings...

  • It's my favorite song!!!

  • There isn't anything this bloke can't sing that doesn't come out beautiful!

    Richard, you've got a gift!

    Cheers!

  • well said...this song is bleak but life affirming too, i think he's got guts to be able to sing a lot of the lyrics he writes....i would tend to keep them thoughts to myself.

  • This song makes me cry! Richard, you wonderful bastard.

  • best verve song ever!!!

  • was this an actual full show or just this one song?

  • deep

  • 14 years ago..

    Richard Ashcroft doesnt age at all

  • What was the name of this show?

  • An alternative rock show called '120 Minutes'. You can see the show's sign once or twice during The Verve's performance.

  • if this isnt one of the best songs of the nineties i dont know what is.

  • You come in on your own

    And you leave on your own

    Forget the lovers you've know

    And your friends on your own

  • Tell me what you see

    Was it a dream? Was I in it?

    Life seemed so obscene until it's over.

    Who knows?

  • Great memorabilia of my favourite Verve-Song! Thanks!

  • hey

    cotchford

    you

    missed

    me yet!

  • i love the lyrics

  • The name of the book is "Burning Money and the Keys to the World"

  • Yeah, dih1979 told me via message, but thanks all the same =]

  • It may seem wrong, I know it's wrong, and eery... but I find comfort in how unsettling, yet simultaneously beautiful, his songs and voice are. His face always seems so etched with pain and I'm scared that what escapes from his mind through his music in a such beautiful way is only a fraction of what he endures. My heart beats faster when I hear a song like this, a song he seems to pained to come out of. There is no right word to describe his brilliance.

  • you wanna read his book,its brilliant,great music by a great musician

  • He has a book? Would you be able to give me the name of the title, please?

  • highly intellegent comment you managed to put into words the way i feel

  • it's the drugs...that's what it is. years of being stoned and confused

  • Canzone stupenda... un vero capolavoro♥

  • is the recorded version a live version?? its a brilliant song!! thank god i bought that album! its class!!!

  • Modern day John Lennon!

  • The Verve is definitely a fuckin' great band.

    All they do is just amazing.

    "A northern soul" is a masterpiece, like "Storm in Heaven" & "Urban Hymns".

    One of the best band.

    Thanks for this wonderful live version!

    xxxx

  • Y'know, you may very well be right!

    THE VERVE FOREVA!
