The Verve - Gravity Grave (Live in Glastonbury)

[CamiPing]

Love this!!!!

[niloxfreak]

To me youre like setting sun you rise then youre gone!!!

[dedogizmo]

Incredible performance!!

[tonebenderx]

God this is so incredible.  With the band flying so high, it just underscores how far Richard has fallen.

[pixargod]

@tonebenderx

I think another reason why the band fell was the fact that Richard Ashcroft and Nick Mccabe weren't the best of friends and had a rather turbulent relationship. Richard was kind of the John Lennon to Nick's Paul Mccartney. It's just something I read about the band.

[harishdanxd2]

one unlike??? :O must be justin bieber himself x-(

[AnaLilia813]

Or maybe the Verve was influenced by Peach as the song was written in the 80's.. Maybe great minds really do think alike

[AnaLilia813]

Some of the lyrics remind me of Peach's song "You Lied". I suspect the writer of the band was influenced by the Verve. I like Tool's live cover of the song better though, they did a better job at it than Peach

[maxwoodworth]

absolute classic! Too bad this clip cuts out the explosive last two minutes

[oasisforever00]

Greatest band in history...nothing can beat la verve!!!!! pure awesomess, brillant lives, great albums...psychedelia, shoegaze, alternative rock everything in just one band...60's 90's sound defines the verve.

[fathousecat]

pretty crazy to see the video after loving the audio recording for so many years.

[rock100pre]

YEAHHH so goos live performnce ESPERO QUE THE VERVE saquen nueva gira 2010-2011

SERIA ESTUPENDO QUE LLEGUEN AL PERÚ y escuchar esta cancion

vamos THE VERVE mi banda favorita de los 90

[scullysedge]

When they were good.

[Pire002]

@scullysedge And they still are.

[scullysedge]

@Pire002 They are god awful and an industry joke. Richard is called Lord Flashcroft and they don't even rehearse together anymore. They are a souless joke....just an opinion though..

[Pire002]

@scullysedge Oh come on, that doesn't make their music awful!

[scullysedge]

@Pire002 It makes it souless drivel, i suppose like most music about these days.

[MrAsh207]

that is so fucking true, there is no other band like them! show me other band over the last 40 years that can or make the effort to create the same sound and feeling that they make.

[SAIGONDISCO]

@MrAsh207

Brian Jonestown massacre

The Warlocks

Dead Meadow

Asteroid 4

ect

[noelsplectrum9]

no one makes music like this no one ever thats what makes them so special absolutely stunnin!

[wowclothes]

I was at glastonbury 93. I think I saw this, though the whole weekend was a bit of a hazy memory.

[mellowNdark]

Drunk, stoned or both???

[dub1ingunner]

Got to be one of the best performances ever to have blessed Glasto. Everyone download No Come Down and do what remembermeforevertit does.

[miniGMgoit]

I just wish they had continued to explore this style rather than ending up with the bilge that it their new album.

Storm In Heaven is one of my favorite and most played albums ever. The rest of it just doesnt do it like thier first stuff.

[scullysedge]

Couldn't agree more. The first two albums are great, then they lost it. Now they are a joke. I miss them. Feel is my favourite track and grey skies.

[miniGMgoit]

Grey Sky's 8)

I love Star Sail the best

[colorbarsat4am]

Most of all these new bands from UK should've never skipped The Verve's class.

[remembermeforevertit]

this is on the no come down album, i put it on in the car drive a 100 miles an hour as the sun goes down and feel like a god! thankyou verve!

[misubi]

Definitive version. McCabe is otheworldly.

[thegriggspaul]

reminds me of the recession......a boat blown by u..nothing ahead just a deepest blue.

[VincibleDionysius]

Blew me away back then. still blow me away now

[jenton70]

One of my favorite songs. I bought the EP when it came out. I'd never heard of them before but read they were good - this was the first song I heard and was blown away. Later, when Storm in Heaven was released, I was totally dedicated to singing their praises as the best new band at that time.

[iwantmycountryback72]

Richard's voice is as smooth and addictive as it was on this day!

WOW...LONG LIVE THE VERVE!!!

[toniomed]

es un muy buen tema...ellos están en aquel concierto muy jóvenes..pero,está de la patada reecontra chevere...de la p.m!!ojala el tiempo no hubiese cambiado....THE VERVE de los noventas...

[Defmark87]

The Verve are one of a kind. This performance is so badass I can barely comprehend it.

[gglaw3]

They should have grown their hair even longer, screw short hair.

[bohochic8]

Oh God...I would have love have been there when they played here..Lucky audience. Thank u 4 this gem Brunnerka!!Where's the rest of da interview at the end of this vid? Pls..Pls post it! ;)

[kutinoham]

absolutely amazing!!!

[boyspider7]

They were something to see back then, & continue to be awesome live...just maybe not as frenzied and intense in '08, but we'll see soon, yeh!

[7lartceps]

Imagine being there and here the verve for the first time.Mindblowing,intense powerful.

[corkscrewfoley]

This is the version that is in No Come Down...absolutely mind blowing!

[BurningSpear213]

Shit is this recent? I heard about the reunion and went "ugh" but there might be hope yet...

[jorgesgorges]

This is from '93 man...way old..

[caulkerz]

can you not tell from the hairdo's of the band & the crowd how old this is?

[weetimbhoy]

T in the fuckin Park.. yaassssssss !

[fireenergy2005]

i have always wondered why does the lyrics of this particular song differ from the album-version?

[DecaffinatedBoy]

The Verve The Verve.

Bout bloody time Richard and Nick admitted that they are awesome together.

Fuck the arguments.

Get on with it!

[ardalcravan]

I agree with all the folks who rate the first Verve album. We should hope that the new stuff measures up to that, not the urban hymns nonsense. What do I know? I'm only a music fan...

[RockandRollStar]

Stop being all so snobbish about Urban Hymns... It's the most popular, but it doesn't make it a pile of shite. To me all the albums are just equally fucking brilliant.

[pembo18]

spot on.

there's plenty of psychedelia on urban hymms - this time, neon wilderness, space and time, weeping willow, etc - that are equal to NS and storm in heaven.

Even with the strings, BSS is still very much what the verve were about; uplifting and yet soul destroying in equal measures.

[blaky039]

@RockandRollStar fark no, no album can come close to a storm in heaven.

[leumas009]

I have no idea how you got hold of this video but its awesome!! Can't wait for their new album - hopefully its a bit like a storm in heaven, such a great album....

[ascent7]

nick mcabe is THE outstanding guitarist of our generation....so happy i picked up on verve late 1992....forget bittersweet symphony...this is verve..

[BigDan777]

Ascent you are so right! A Storn in Heaven & A Northern Soul, & even No Come Down , the remix disc are the 3 best albums of all time. Urban Hymns was piss-weak in comparison...The best band of my life time!

[redtailari]

dude i couldnt agree more. what a weapon mccabe is. never been high but when i listen to him....man unreal!

[smashingblouse775]

way cool

[camzie73]

Christ,was this 93?

Takes off 14 years in 8 bars!

I was there or thereabouts!

Highlight of all my Glastonburys

[gunthern7]

wow !!!!! thank u

[melantonic]

de los mejores!!!

[thesteveoman]

note; 01:18 a john lennon look-a-like dancing in the video

[AnnithaTheOriginal]

So happy they reunited! Loved them for so long! Real fracking music!

[Pisspatch321]

This is from the 1993 Glastonbury. The Verve were on about 2 oclock on saturday afternoon.Me and my mate sat down by the NME stage and watched them we had never heard of them. Thanks for posting brings back great mems

[rockinstlouis]

I just love McCabe's playing. I just can't imagine the sounds getting larger, meaner, and more full.  So much grit.

[stanbass]

Welcome back. Real music returns to the scene. Arctic Monkeys, Franz Ferdinand etc Fuck Off.

[jp2v]

HERE HERE !!! W*nkers the lot of 'em.

[hypercatjohn]

wow the way it breaks down at 3:20, amazing stuff. cant wait to see them live again! ROLL ON OCTOBER!!!

[champman1959]

The Verve Return 2007

[drewlsy]

I like to call this Acid-grunge for the sake of it, although I do not believe in labels. But I thought it was deserving of one, that's how good it is.

[mikeytherose]

Robert Plant my arse, richard is richard like...

[sullysnet]

sad part is I just got this CD after WAY too long and damn I didn't even know what I was missing... brillant stuff

[GBfan006]

thanks 4 reposting this it was taken down 4 some reason..

[page7978]

Ashcroft very Robert Plant like here... shoulda stayed that way instead of trying to be the next dylan...

[brunnerka]

I love it!

[JasonHFY]

That's a band!My God,Verve rocked so much!

[carzcarz]

Jeez- this band is FUCKING AWESOME!!
