  • Comment removed

  • 5 people missed the 'like' button

  • shiiiit! i fucking miss Carlos D.

  • I am proud to say I can bang this on my bass... after 2+ hours of pure concentration and emotion... Much respect to Carlos D., you inspire me to keep exploring my bass!!

  • i think if this song had a longer introduction and an extended drum solo, this song will be ranked as a classic in the years to come.

  • Interpol always makes me happy when I'm down

  • Definetely the best live version of this song

    

  • 4 people aren't looking alright tonight

  • Carlos D is one sexy mofo

  • i wanna get exactly the same sound of the bass...! fuck

  • Awesome, want a higher quality video of this performance though!

  • really good bass line from Charlos

  • The moment the guitar really kicks in at 3.11 always gives me chills when I listen to it.One of the most underrated and overlooked songs of Turn On The Bright Lights.

  • @SATANSAMIGO lol nice!

  • Geil....einfach nur Geil....

  • Pixies Pixies Pixies

  • @brisenyo Yeah, Paul has said a lot that The Pixies are a huge influence for them.

    Fuck, The Pixies are amazing

  • carlos is getting so into it, it's hard to believe he doesn't even like the bass.

  • No other band could make two guitar strings sound so good

  • IAN CURTIS WOULD SMILE IF HE HEARD INTERPOL

  • Damn, Carlos owns in this song. You can tell he's really feelin it. I love the second part where it really gets heavy.

  • GODS!

  • Comment removed

  • they died after our love to admire.... THIS is amazing. sigh

  • This song reminds me to be a better person.I have to be good and honest.It's hard.Interpol trough music they help me.Thanks see ya on august 9 2010

  • this song is so amazing it makes me wanna cry thats how good it is!! i feel bad for ppl who havent heard it.

  • i love this

    songggg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

  • ORGASMIC 100%

  • PERFECT

  • orgasmic

  • wise men ay only fools rush innnnn... :p

  • a master piece, yes. but not the only one from them indeed.

  • damn, i have to go see them live.

  • a little bit late

  • best performance of their best song

  • this is their best songg!! this is a master piece...

  • @ALXgreatlord i think its one of teir bests, but i could think of SONG SEVEN, THE SPECIALIST, WRECKING BALL, so, they are one of the best groups of all times.

  • great live performance but I can't help but notice how the crowd behave, its like everyone past the second row thought they were supposed to be in another concert and are going "what the fuck is this?!"

  • my favorite tune from interpol, excelent performance!

  • damn they are all sweaty as hell...

  • I didn´t know that youtube is just for english speaking persons....

  • no ma amo esa cancion es tan inpredecible como la vida misma

    yeah

  • es (junto con a time to be so small) mis canciones preferidas, y cirtos tienes razon,

  • wish they played this live more! seen them 3 times and no the new or Length of love :( x x x

  • interpol is so far above all the other bands out there

  • Agreed, Interpol is the king of indie. :D

  • muerete¡¡¡

  • Increase your intelligence, moron.

  • actually i can speak foir languages, learning ....German. To answer your question English, Spanish, Portuguess, Italian. The only underclass person here, is you. Ignorant ape.

  • pero bien que me entendiste cabron

  • This is definitely towards the end of the playlist, Pauls face looks in a daze,a lil flushed and dripping in sweat

    He's trying to sound more fluid with the lyrics than the broken sensation off the track - different to my ears

    Still absolutely awesome to listen to!

    Carlos prying at the bass sounded so flippin' sweet!!

  • Paul is so hot. I mean, really, look at all that sweat...

  • i sort of know what you mean his voice doesn't usually sound as good live, but i think track in an exception. he probably sounds better here than on the album version

  • this is how he sounds when he sings this song on the album though. the vocals on the new dont really sound like his typical vocals.

  • Comment removed

  • carlos d is such a dude

  • yea, that b-string thing is fuken sweeeet

  • Comment removed

  • wow, i had no idea you actually have to detune the b string when you play this

  • The tightest band since zep or the smiths fo' sho

  • Today: May 3.

    Is my birthday, but... is the Paul's birthday too! :D

    Congratulations, Paul! I love you!

    I love Interpol!

    I'm addicted to Interpol songs...

    "The New", my favorite song...

  • wOw i ♥ InterpOl

  • this song is so fucking poweful

  • goddamn what a band

  • I love this song.  my heart is breaking :(

  • Sweaty Paul Banks=YUM.

  • The transition this song goes through is perfection, beat only by Specialist.

  • I know right? Definitely their best two songs in my opinion, I only wish that they had played the chorus twice before transitioning in The New. Love the "My heart's been breaking" part.

  • damn, that crow is awful. Put me there instead, i'll scream like a damn japanese school girl!

  • lmfao i mean crowd :P

  • yeah me too

  • the poetic lyrics set interpol apart.

  • interpol and joy division are so different, listen Closer of JD and any song of interpol.

  • You're looking alright tonight.

    I think we should go.

  • wow.

    wish they would play this live for me....

  • what a beautiful song

  • A blistering performance of a great Interpol song...maybe the best...they seem to really enjoy performing this song. Perfection.

  • carlos' face hahahaha

  • These guys are most definitely influenced by The Cure and especially Joy Division.With out a doubt, the bass lines are eerily reminiscent of Joy Division.I still like them though.

  • also paul's voice is very similar to ian curtis'voice

  • what are they playing in a oven

    but you know what, this has to be the best live concert of theirs on youtube

    ,probably because its all 'bright lights' songs

  • The far best version of the New. It's a shame they don't really play it live any more... :-( Paul's singing is so honest and heart-felt, just amazing!

  • one of my favorite songs!

    and one of their besst

    same here i cant seem to hate one i almost hate

    'next exit'

    but i just cant...ha

  • the new pretty much sums up that carlos is the best bassist around today

  • he's really good. not the best though.

    but for some reason he really didnt show up on OLTA.

  • who do you rate higher then?

    i noticed that, OLTA is a good solid effort but my least favourite interpol album. i dont know if the bass on that album is part of a new direction or whether he was just a little short of ideas

  • les claypool, victor wooten, flea, geddy lee, guy from rancid. i can think of a lot more. dont get me wrong, he's pretty fuckin good. but he's not the BEST around. i'm a bass player myself and he's got some pretty really good lines, but its nothing that's over the top amazing.

    as for OLTA. i think that he's putting less effort in the band nowadays. seems like he doesnt wanna be there sometimes. u notice these shows compared to their new shows, carlos is showing less emotion.

  • you place all of those bass (although great talent)players in line and only carlos d. has that iconic prescence that most bass players just dont have. another awesome bass player is twiggy ramirez.

  • les claypool, victor wooten, flea, geddy lee, guy from rancid. i can think of a lot more. dont get me wrong, he's pretty fuckin good. but he's not the BEST around. i'm a bass player myself and he's got some pretty really good lines, but its nothing that's over the top amazing.

    as for OLTA. i think that he's putting less effort in the band nowadays. seems like he doesnt wanna be there sometimes. u notice these shows compared to their new shows, carlos is showing less emotion.

  • carlos is better than all of them. i think you missed the point i was making, any good bassist can play a rancid bassline (not to take anything away from him) but who else can write a bassline as unique as carlos?

    flea is very talented, but chili pepper's are shite..balances itself out

  • whoshotlassie, you're being very biased. Just becasue YOU think the chillipeppers are shit, it doesn't mean they are shit.

    Stop arguing, Carlos plays a nice bass line in this song. Plain and simple. Forget who plays best.

    Look at who's having fun.

  • i think you need to take a more laid back approach -

    yes i said rhcp are shite (because i genuinely think that), and like you said..it is only my opinion. and i think im perfectly entitled to state my opinions in a non offensive manner on the internet. no need to take my post out of context as being argumentative, when it was part of a discussion.

  • Trust me, I'm not 'not being laid back' lol. I mean come on we both love what this video is..

    And yes, you're totally entitled to your opinion, but there are better words than shit. I think you need to understand that I don't agree with you, but also I didn't agree with getdeported. I was just trying to point out that it is near impossible for JUST you two to decide who's the best bassist, and also it shouldn't matter who'd better, but to listen to what you like.....

  • It's the subtlety of the bass and the simplistic nature of the songs the elevates Interpol above the "rock" genre, that and the immensely poetic lyrics that don't give you that synthetic feel other "rock" lyrics...ya know like the " ooooooh y-y-y-yeah, I---- know (bla bla bla)" those words are trite, vexing, and have turned rock into something bland and vomit inducing, honestly

    Interpol is fresh, still, and discernable amongst all that bullshit

  • @carlo88moe fantastic comment!

  • @carlo88moe smart man.

  • @carlo88moe That is such a douchey comment. Honestly, there is nothing wrong with Rock music... Ever heard the tragically hip? Sam Roberts, The trews, Rush, ac/dc.... Interpol is good but honestly that comment was pretentious as all hell.

  • @xxxapolloxxx and its not pretentious to start naming bands like a pedantic cunt? id rather be pretentious than as fatuous and just fucking stupid like those blathering on how "rock is still alive guys, i listen to bands like guns and roses and ACDC"...seriously,doesnt get more self congratulatory than that, so fine go listen to ur "rock and rock on MAYNE!"...btw,all the bands you named are well past their exploration date, whats left is a trail of post grunge shite bands trying to mimic them

  • @carlo88moe Obviously I listen to other music too... hence why I'm at an interpol page. I'm just saying its douchey to say that interpol is "above" rock music... if there was no rock music, there would be no interpol. Simple as that.

  • Comment removed

  • @xxxapolloxxx save the politically correct bullshit and just enjoy the goddamn music..

  • @xxxapolloxxx expiration* date...heroes of the past are sad, forlorn things to look at today...theyre pretty useless today because what made them great is that they were able to tap into the ethos of their time, which always changes, so really every bands worth expires,the bands you mentioned well exhausted theirs yrs ago and are irrelevant..oh,also, fuck you,might as well include that, proper invective isn't complete without it,u daft prog-rock douche...

  • @carlo88moe yes! the bass

  • I love this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • de las mejores canciones de interpol a mi parecer..

  • I didn't think I'd ever dislike an Interpol song until this one.

    Then I really listened to it the other day. I can't get enough of it.

    I don't think it's possible for me to dislike an Interpol song.

  • my fav song :)))))))))))))))))))))))))))

  • you're looking alright tonight i think we shooould gooo (L)(L)(L)!!!!

  • 4:01 the guitar is awesome, la guitarra no tiene madre

  • put some feeling in to it paul!haha..i love the way he sounds.

  • la mejor rola de interpol por mucho

  • they just take me to someother place

  • same here.

  • LOVE IT--I love the way this songs begins as one song, then deconstructs and bursts into a completely different song in the second half, then leaves nothing but burning cinders at the very end.

  • "Just lose it" at 3.13 onwards, Love this song. . . such great energy. . . . .

  • But I can't pretend I don't need to defend some part of me from you.

    oh myyy i wish paul was singing this to me.

  • The song always makes me feel better.

  • This song is more than amazing and it makes my heart swell and feel as if it might explode

    But in a good way.

    =D

  • Dear God, this is wonderful.

    Interpol are just... Something else.

    I hope they never stop making music this haunting and beautiful and every other positive adjective you can't help but assign this musical phenomenon.

  • jaja, I miss a "t"

  • you´re looking all right tonigh!!!!!! I think we should go...

  • it's hauntingly beautiful

  • actually the bass line isn't all that complicated compared to, say, obstacle 1 but its still very haunting. and i've got to agree this is a beautiful song.

  • i wonder why they never ever play this song live. i have checked almost every setlist and its never there

  • You're so right, so did I. It seems like they're afraid or anything to play it live. Suc a pity, it's one of my faves! :(

  • Or my other explanation: they don't play it, because Carlos gets so sad while playing it. Look at him in this video, he suffers that poor sod. So does Paul while singing... I usually cry when I listen to this song and leif erikson... and untitled! What do you guys think of my thesis???

  • i think it definitely has something to with carlos-- the bass line is so complex and such a huge part of the song that if he doesn't want to play it....the band wont play it! it is by far my favorite interpol song as well. such a perfect beautiful expressive meaningful emotional song.

  • the bass line is too complex to keep in mind...too risky to play it live

  • They played it at the end of the encore when I saw them in Munich '04

  • the bass is the best of the song no doubt

  • The bass line is so beautiful

  • Best Interpol song ever!!

  • That's just perfect...Saw them live in Paris three days ago, too bad they didn'tplay that one.

  • its like vibrant and explosive

  • Esa canción la mueve.

    definitivamente mi favorita del disco

  • Favorite Interpol song, without a doubt. I love them!

  • heck yes I love the melody close to the end

  • This is such a beautiful song.

    What a great performance.

  • poor guys look pretty thrashed, a hot box at that venue? fantastic performance as always by interpol nevertheless.

  • this is a very underrated interpol song. i think its one of the hidden gems on turn on the bright lights

  • absolutely

  • I couldn't agree more... I absolutely love this song!!!

  • Hermosa Cancion...Hermoso Carlos D.

  • this is one of my most favorite interpol songs...

  • nice bass

  • Esta es sin pedos mi rola favorita de interpol, por todo, la cadencia con la que inicia, las figuras son increibles y los acordes antes de llegar al final son alucinantes WOW!!!!! de pie señores rolonononon de interpol.

  • this is my favorite live preformance by interpol

    great energy, for once, from paul

    i like this live preformance better than the cd recording.

  • esta cancion me pone a volar

  • heck yess paul

  • love it.

  • mi cancion favorita de interpol...

    y ya estoy sacando el bajo jaja

  • the basss is pretty

  • Es  increiblemente hermoso el tema

  • Esta cancion no es muy conocida al menos en Mexico pero realmente se me hace todo un viaje estelar y para ir muy lejos , una gran inspiracion de interpol..

  • Awesome bass line!
