Opeth - To Bid You Farewell LIVE 2003 (Audio only)

[zenzming]

My first opeth song brings back memories

[Cheximus]

Fuck. Have only just listened to this live version after knowing this song for about 10 years. Beautiful.

[xMaideness666]

Simply Beautiful... Opeth should to bring this song back in their Heritage Tour, it would be amazing to hear it live again... Such a perfect song

[canslerasia]

I must have listened to this song thousands of times and it never ceases to get to me.

[YataghanX]

Ya Rmed. It pisses me off pretty bad.

[PossessWithin]

it just touches my soul

[rmed30]

this is why I don't go to concerts anymore. why are all these people just talking and yelling over this incredible song. what kind of disrespectful psychotic piece of shit do you have to be to think that you have something better to say then this band?

[Colbystrns]

Such a beautiful piece and amazing performance. This is in my Top 10 Favorite Opeth Song List, the songs are: (no particular order) In the Mist She Was Standing Hessian Peel Advent To Bid You Farewell Black Rose Immortal Godhead's Lament Demon of the Fall Night and the Silent Water Forrest of October Under the Weeping Moon

[Megadedly]

Also you have the info wrong, Benighted is the song before this, not Deliverance.

[chuckawobbly]

@Megadedly

Yup you are correct, I double checked my files, and the time I am speaking of is Deliverance than To Bid You Farewell from Athens Greese, March 6th 2004, almost a year after the performance in Rhode Island.

And I don't know if it is a vinyl rip or not. Probably just a bootleg from the desk.

[Megadedly]

Is this a vinyl rip?

[GodinSDXTguitars]

This is such an awesome version holy shit! That piano jam is just great..

[anathemadeathopeth]

one persone is a fuking stupid.

this song is so amazing..

[panduca]

devotion eludes... and in sadness i lumber, in my own ashes i am standing without a soul

[metalmike1976]

@panduca iomg omg omg might be the smoothest verse ever..my god..mikael is a genius...wow wow owow love that part..incredible!!!

[josefelix17]

Amazing. This is a great song, it's a shame that they don't play it often. And thanks for the link, it sounds perfect.

[josefelix17]

Amazing, this is a great song, it's a shame that they don't play it often. And thanks for the link, it sounds really good.

[ClaudeMcBanister]

If they play this at the albert hall in april i think my life we be complete =D

It would be nice to see in the mist she was standing aswell. I can't wait! =)

[MattHellwing]

...she wept and whisper "i know"...

One of the most excellent and sad song i've ever heard, this live version makes me remember it, so thank u!

[eezerian]

Wow....amazing. No other band sounds like this. I'm starting to worry that I'm just not listening to any other music than Opeth....I used to, but not anymore.

[YtseJam16]

Yup, I used to get that with Dream Theater but since I bought Still Life I've been listening to Opeth all the time and nothing else.

[waz416]

O YES....the song that made me fall in love with this band.....amazing rendition....love it....brings back memories......seen these guys live 5 times...always a blast.....PEAC EOUT

[MancuZ28]

ha, yes waz...memories!  i've seen them 2x, catching up to you haha...

[noahballs]

ah finally... now i just need to find a live version of 'Black Rose Immortal' on youtube :P

[HATECREWrulz123]

Im pretty sure they have never played it live due to its length. Thats why Im going to the 20th anniversary show that they are doing. I think they are going to do it finally.

[chuckawobbly]

I just saw that, they are playing the entire BWP album!!! OMFG

I have a rehearsal tape of BRI, it is low quality and only a section of the song.

[80smetalchild]

@HATECREWrulz123

uhhhh so u were probably disappointed... oh well advents not bad XD overall that was an amazing fuckin show. APRIL ETHEREAL!!!! i was so fuckin happy they played that tune live

[HATECREWrulz123]

@80smetalchild I was a little bit. but I had actually been stricken with fever the day of the show, so I was unable to fully enjoy it as I normally would have, but I still made the trip to New York and saw a great show.

[80smetalchild]

@HATECREWrulz123

aww man that sucks. ye my friend was having family troubles so i had to go alone... haha still had an amazing time!

[musicalkaratekid]

@HATECREWrulz123 well when i went to see them they played 'deliverance', the drapery falls,the grand conjuration,godhead's lament, all of which are slightly longer than to bid you farewell:P

[Megadedly]

@HATECREWrulz123 Nah, length isn't the issue. It's not even very long.

[chuckawobbly]

Uploaded through Megaupload. If it clunks out again I cbf uploading this thing every day, torrents are available.

[borromeocc]

Opeth has the best ballads ever even if they're prog death metal..

[Solarrain4]
