Lush - Lit Up (Live)

[ManoftheDao]

Love this. Probably the most under-rated band of the nineties. Great sound. Wish I had seen them live. Mikki had the edge over Louise from Sleeper, for me, but it was a good discussion point amongst all my friends. Shallow, I know.........

[MindStompproductions]

They sound fantastic here.Really nice!

[22018]

though I did not like the way they were going, I feel bad that they quit. the music they made could be called delicate :D RIP Chris

[hurtbymusic]

not hurting now . . .

[thehappyone]

Who's the clown that gave this the thumbs down?

[EngelNr666]

beautiful

[dylan9236]

What an immaculate performance

[KrisRamJ]

"The future's yours to hold and you're really not very old" What a line. Another blinding song by Lush, "Split" is my favourite album by a long shot, it sounds to me like the truest voice of the band - "Spooky" was them finding their feet, "Lovelife" had a few too many commercial tracks for my tastes...

[nonameinfl]

I do and I was in love. I am in love.

[nonameinfl]

remember Lush

[smurfblood]

Great bands know that they don't have to "rock" all the time. Lush covers the gamut of emotion. They can aggressive, prickly, airy, somber, cold, and warm. Their sound it textured yet hazy, ambient yet melodic. This one (one of my favorites) is light and bouncy. Yep, there's nothing wrong with a happy tune.

[serendipitous6]

Well... a vote here for Emma. =)

[nevinaball]

I met Miki during this tour at the Glam Slam in L.A. She was in the crowd before the show so I had her sign my ticket and told her Lush replaced The Cure as my favorite band. She was so down to earth and approachable. I LOVE YOU MIKI!!!

[AnalogSavior]

Pretty awesome, but before I was old enough to care about music

Wish I could have been there

[ariellevonglitz]

beautiful music and lyrics...sad but so lovely!

[salubrious]

God Miki you're so voluptuous!! I want you, ha ha!

[noeltheshemale]

miki berenyi. hot, hot, hot. =)

[realmig29]

i still miss they all...

[Sleazymush]

I'm so in love with Miki. <3

[burningxdimx]

Sounds like it coud've been a studio recording. Great mix from the board.

[cfhidalgo2000]

one of the all time greatest bands ever to exist

[ikemstar]

To think of how it ended still brings a little tear to the eye. I remember standing in the S.U. reading about Chris's suicide, disbelieving. I just stood there. The music lives forever with my memories of this fine band.

[CageyPea]

Awwww . . . . even all these years later, I'm *not* surprised at how much I still love and miss this band. This song can lift you up no matter how bad a week you're having

[ashome13]

Miki and Emma have such soothing, relaxing voices... just like angels from heaven. Miki's not bad on the eyes either :) !!

[jeromekagan]

Outstanding example of Emma Anderson's top notch songwriting talents.  Beautiful, haunting and uplifting all at the same time.

[Hologramme33]

: )

[raiderglory]

Wonderful. So perfect. Took be back 14-15 years ago to a better place in time. Thanks for the memories, Mikki, Emma, Phil, Chris.

[DjSaneR]

OMG... this song brings me back.

[ariellevonglitz]

a song that I just cant stop listening to at the moment and a brilliant live version too!

[kung2000]

damn! i love this band! It is such a tragedy. i wish they would have a reunion!!!

[paulsvid02]

This video has exceptional sound quality and visuals...of course Lush is outstanding

[smurfblood]

A great song from a great album

[Eskimo50]

The vocals sound very good, a lot better than most Lush performances!

[julosx]

Among the things I love in this video is that you can actually hear Miki's guitar (a custom made Epi Riviera XII).

[codewintawind]

They are tight.

[AOCRkid]

i have too much respect for them to make a dirty joke out of that...but miki is hot. lol

[codewintawind]

I have respect for them, they are one of my favorite bands. However, Miki gives me dirty thoughts.

[INITIALSJE]

@codewintawind

...and just about every other female singer

under 4AD i have noticed over the past many years!

[Babaziba]

Got to meet them when they did an instore at my record shop on the "Spooky" tour, and saw the show later that night. What an amazing band.

[paulconrad]

angels. warm sounds and cold chills

[Vincestrummer]

Loved this band .... met Miki and drummer Chris in Boston USA years ago ... great people

[cathoderoy]

Me too, I couldn't believe how friendly they were. They gave away free beer too,

[AOCRkid]

yay boston.

[kirbivore]

I'm a sucker for redheads and girls who play guitar.

[luciemarie323]

How could I forget to comment on the others.. Best group of musicians to date.

[od3simon]

I got to dance w/ mikki at lolapaloza and just touching her was better than sex w/ some other ladies(lol)thanks mikki!!!

[luciemarie323]

They were absolutely the best band for me....... It didn't get any better than that.

Mikki is stunning.

[chellywuzhere636]

@od3simon what year?

[eightday]

@od3simon I can believe that.

[gregbutcher1]

@od3simon , you luck so and so.

[RonHo420]

Ohh... The EVIL things I'd do for Emma or Miki. Emma is one of the best song writers ever. It's too bad Lush and Sing-Sing are gone now, thanks for a great video! RonHo

[seppi65]

Emma Anderson is my all-time favorite songwriter.

[postwhatever]

Emma is sooo wannable in this one. 2:58

[julosx]

She was then in full bloom look-wise, sound-wise as in her songwriting.

[BlackSailfin]

How did you create a link to go to that exact moment in time of the vid? Please share - very cool!

[JMfanboy]

youtube added a link around the specified time automatically :)

[hritz77]

who are these guys?

[jimrocks22]

ah Miki so .... there just aren't words to describe her

[trumph7]

any way to trade for these japanese shows on DVD? i have lush to trade and other bands...

[tropenator]

Saw them at the back room in ATX in the early 90's with my BFF. To bad people tried to mosh. Still fabulous show.

[bornslippyboy]

what great quality. thanks for sharing. i think this is the best lush video on the net.

[julosx]

Type "&fmt=18" at the end of the URL code (above) and you'll even get this vid with a stereo sound !

[forgetthecheater]

Excellent! Thanks so much for posting this live stuff. I miss Chris, and Lush will always be great!

Thanks

Cheers!

[nsyman74]

all around much better video on you tube!

thanks so much its great

[melbacat]

Awesome!!!The sound is amazing!!!

[julosx]

A thousand thanks for this !!! I'm currently working out this song with the proper tool (a 12-strings ES 335).

Nice video quality !

[fatcatbuzz]

This is one of my favorite songs by them. I've been playing guitar for about 16 years and find it still hard to learn certain songs properly. Do you have the chords?

[julosx]

No I haven't actually... I do everything by ear.

[perhaps62]

A D (or Dsus2) A D (repeats throughout much of the verses)

Switches to Bm and E.

cool part that makes me think "Yes, Lush was wicked!": C, G, Dsus2, F, E, A

During the mirror part: C, Dsus2... G, D, A.

Pretty much that's it. I'm just guessing though.

[fatcatbuzz]

Thanks for the chords. This is one of my favorite songs off of my favorite Lush albums. It really is such a positive song and it could get you through a rough day. "Morning in the mirror, the future's yours to hold, one day things won't seem the same way I know". Chris was an awesome and underrated drummer.
