Lostprophets - Last Summer on TOTP

[lprandyb]

This was filmed at the quayside, in gateshead, for top of the pops. Ian had a bad throat so had to mime, he got alot of stick at the time for doing it, but top of the pops were gonna make him mime anyways if i remember correctly. love this song, start something is easily the best thing they ever made.

[kobrakai36]

this isnt lip sincing! wtf?

they arent shit like britney spears or some shit.

[gargoyle442]

they are amazing live and yet cos its TOTP they arent allowed to sing. I saw them live rly recently and they were really awesome

[emilyiful]

i wish i was there

ians eyes <3

[kathrynpoppymillie]

Well

Love The Song

But

You Have To Admit

Ian Watkins Has The Most Gorgeous Eyes

And I Am Completley In Love With Him <3

[JemmaCatherine]

i hate that they dont let them play live cos it's so obviouse that ther miming and there amazing live :(

[Idiotquee]

you can tell his lip syncing, he doesnt need to though. i saw him live and it was beautiful

[alicelovestinkerbell]

:D i love themm this cideo is old but is immense , lostprophets get better and better i love themm too much and who ever slags them off can fuck themselves (y) x x x x x x

[warhawkmedia]

Eat shiiiiiit lol XD

[Fapman1337]

See most bands have a slightly distorted version of their songs to mime live but this is exactly the same as the one on the albumn so they are either really stupid and just played the albumn version or plain good live

[StfuIdiot1]

Fuck hes rly good live

[Dayannal33]

Oh, its a shame that top of tp do not allow bands to play live, lostprophets is soooo goos live, ian looks hot... <333

[crazybobbis12]

Green Day played live on it

[LeeM833]

i believe he says eat shit

[johngoundry86]

haha, i can see how it kinda sounds like that but he doesn't say eat shit, lol. he shouts gateshead, where it was filmed (newcastle)

[johngoundry86]

whats he say at 2:29 ?

[LOSANGELESLONDON]

eat shit

[SparksToFlamesMusic]

i love lost prophets like my favourite band but... this is obviousely miming, up urs TOTP!

[jackyboi342534563]

nirvana took the piss too ... top of the pops is stupid that they dont let acts perform...

[legofmunch]

Its playback. Dead giveaway is when you see jamie singing lol TOTP never allowed any artists to play live. Look for oasis on top of the pops. They took the piss out of not being allowed to play live lol :-)

[Danielyeahman]

lol they filmed it off the tv.

[Hadenly]

No........

[TheRandomChicken97]

Ians not singin last summer but they are good live anyway

[xken02]

well in their defense TOTP made artists mimic the words and not play the song but they are still amazing live

[JULIALOSTPROPHETS]

playback ;]

[TutsButs]

I miss the old Lostprophets. Their latest album ain't that great.

Start Something <3

[fragomina]

i agree!!!

[Crisplylad]

Ya , I hope their next albums better than the last.

[killermind19]

@TutsButs start somehting is there best.. i love that album

[sebzapata]

@TutsButs What do you think of The Betrayed, and what didn't you like about Liberation Transmission?

[DarknapalmBeta]

wow lost prophets are really good live, unlike other bands

[rawrrcupcakeface]

Actually they aren't. In this video whoever made it obviously played the music over it because I saw this performance before and it wasn't like this, plus the song and his lips don't match up. So yea. They're pretty good live.

[originaljulz]

Agreed.

[fadence]

@rawrrcupcakeface Yeah, definitely lip syncing - Ian can't sing THAT good live...

[hellodom1]

use r all fud btw its illegal to mime it bcoz ppl pay to c th bands and it look fake becoz sum1 has recoreded it of a tv

[blobbycheese]

it isnt mimed, its just the sounds a bit faster then the video, so dont go slaggin em off

[blobbycheese]

ok forget that,, after watchin nirvana i changed my mind... soz guys :P

[rijones93]

this was mimed!

[poio99]

All songs on Top of the Pops are mimed dude, check out a video when Virvana were on it, they refused to mime and took the piss. Is awesome (Y)

[charlie31frost]

Virvana???

So did RHCP.

[Classices]

Yeah, it IS pretty obvious.

[chantallexx]

my favorite song ever <3

[andyplatinum]

Fav song of all time, so good

[johngoundry86]

ditto

=]

[chucklebug13]

this was the day i fell in love with this song.

[habstar90]

Is Jamie Olib related to Jamie Oliver or the same person?

[Amzz02]

sorry to say but i think it is mimed...don't get me wrong, lostprophets rock..like all music that was in totp was mimed :-/

[Raaawwr666]

its not mimed you foooools

the description says its out of sync....plus it sounds different to the album..

they are just too good (Y)

[rawrsome93]

aaahhh

ahhh

ahhhhh

amazingness

xD

[thebiggestkillersfan]

mime?

but meh bloody awesome and ian and jamie have shexxyfully mazin voices!!!

[sleepjunkie1]

wait...when in hecks name was this on TOTP??...(obviously ages ago cause TOTP finished ages ago lol ^^) but still...i missed it :(

[rorymarin]

not ages ago, but 2 years ago. it last aired in July 2006. this with Lostprophets was in like 2004, when Start Something was just out.

[Paolisj]

playback :)

[Gavin201M]

bileciki do kontroli!!!!!

[Gavin201M]

bileciki do kontroli!!!!!

[michaelintraining]

everyone has to ip synch on totp

thats why nirvana took the mick check it out

/watch?v=dtehDIWrX5U

[rorymarin]

My sexy motherfucker! You`r the daddy babe! Kiss ya! Muah!**

[GDrulz]

fucking beautiful ian's eyes!

[riotrebelling]

the track is too recorded to be live. it's so damn obvious. you can hear to voices of Ian a little.

but heck, lostprophets still rule. woo!

[paper12121212]

yea he's right

[acervista90]

his moth is moving when theres no music...come on whuld do somthing like that

[ThisIsntMyCar]

It's not live.

It's someone recording their TV then turning down the TV sound, then playing the accual song in the background on a CD player.

[heners8]

Good call mate, your dead right

[ThisIsntMyCar]

(Y) Yay me.

[ShortsNL]

Yeah it's lip-sync, definitely. Not because of the bad sync, it's it sounds EXACTLY the same as the original video clip. In a live gig where theres no lip sync the song always varies slightly.

Still, it doesn't matter Lostprophets rule, and so does this song. Why play live anyways when it's only top of the pops :P

[sam12121212222]

fake... u can tell in the verse

[emogrunger15]

hey kaiko83, its just a problem with the video, its out of sink not fake lol... then again this woznt the best version of this song live...

[GOOSESROCK]

why do they not play live on totp? cause most bands are better live like green day! lost prophets rawk

[Kaiko83]

That's shit! They've just played the track over the top, it's not even in time! What was TOTP's problem with people performing live???

[pfaaaa]

They wernt allowed to play live for TOTP .. so ian had to lipsync

[Des182]

Check out my bands music,

put to clips of burnout paradise

watch?v=zon1BCdujoY

copy this in after youtubedotcom

[Orthophobia]

It's the exact same thing as the song on the albulm... Like maybe they are singing a bit but seriously I don't think it's all real :S

[wildeyedchild]

you can see that TOTP edited over the song they did it normally cos you can see ian getting into it at bout 57 secs so they did do it live just TOTP didnt show it live

[Kirkander]

I dont think thats the sound they got live...But thats not to say they werent actually singing live. Besides , the video lags behind the audio anyway

[089hammet]

i like song but shit live,,,not enouge energy init

[ijustfuckup]

erm 1:27 kinda duffed haha

[pah340]

I was at this outside the baltic in Gateshead and it was MINT (i can see my head in the crowd)

[punkrockprincess566]

I wish I was there!!! :-(

[IanWatkinslurver]

It is a shame. But it proves they don't lip sync, they are REALLY BAD XD!! Still awesome just seeing them though, cute.

[xxwatkinsxx]

A fuckin amazin song by the best band in the world!!! Ian is a sexy beast!lol

[xxNEUROTIC69xx]

i ONLY agree wif sexy thing! :)

[milkmanmax7]

a wkd song by a awesome band!!!

check my account out

[Tink2706]

Lostprophets are awesome live seen them 5 times so far,cant wait for new tour

[CrazyProphets]

Hahaha PLAY BACK !!

[pafc4ever]

all totp was lip syncing - shame really

[christiandell]

if you're pissed off about top of the pops making lostprophets lip sync, look what happens with muse when they're asked to lyp sync new born

[kingXnothing]

well, this is top of the pops n they tend to do it alot

[kingXnothing]

nah theyd never choose to lip-sync, they r amazin live, n ian aint the type of guy to disappoint his fans like that. lol

[tobyb123]

yeah lostprophets they wer forced to lyp sync! theyr even beta live than on the albums! nd from above iv seen muse lyp syncin well funny lol

[BadDream51]

You really think they would have *chosen* to lip-sync?

I don't think so. This is Lostprophets. I've seen them live, and they were epic. Just...incredible.

And every bit of it was genuine talent, genuine skill. No miming. No lip-syncing.

They would only have done this because TOTP wouldn't have wanted mistakes, just a clean, perfect performance, as it's on national television.

Lostprophets, TILL I DIE. :)

[Kitchmeister]

it really does take the piss.. its a complete insult to lostprophets when TOTP make them lip sync. yeh.... with a crowd like that they wouldnt choose to.. they are made to.. maybe cos like at the full ponty the swear alot xD they still rock and yeh there so fcukin good live

[BadDream51]

Woo :) Agreed

[GeEnAjAdE]

what the hell what that...i wanted to see the real thing

[Baliskos]

Some moron replaced Ian's singing and the instruments with the actual song. The only thing real was when Ian said "ha" before Lee's guitar solo lol.

[chloex0]

So they actually did it live but then TOTP played over it ?

:o

[Danny123173]

its being dubbed real song over top

[XAngelwithattitudeX]

they rox .. when there not lip syncin

[pioneerguy]

I saw these live at King Georges Hall Blackburn in 2006 they were AWESUM evry1 must see them

[angelichannie]

I was there too they were awesome

[ZombieXWhorexx]

haha he isnt really singer pfft. ohh well ian still rocks liek the rest of the band haha <333 rock on lostprophets.

[Mixygirl]

I remeber Oasis being on TOTP and Liam and Noel swapped places just to take the piss.

[nyfakta]

lol yeh that was great, yeh this is a total lip sync, saw them in hull last week, pure excellence

[stripeytiga]

you can tell when he says the first words he stuffs it...i have lost some of the respect i had for them... ah well! its all better-ian fixed it with his good looks

[ywontushutup]

lostprophets for life

[AFIfanOnRt37]

someone taped the video, and put the song on it like that.

[Milkytits202]

they are lyp sinching...all TOTP lyp synch Nirvana did it but they protested they made a fool of TOTP

[TessaEqualsPanic]

they don't sing live but when they do sing live, they do it good!

they're awesome live

[F1VeSEVE7N]

lmao it inst live lol or else why wud they be able to sound like ian wen others r singin i seen it live and its complete diff livecus the solo is diff aswell

[holsxx]

seen them live once this year going again in november1

best band eva!!!

[lpthrice219]

yea usually jst the playin of instruments is mimed on totp but this time the vocals were 2

[tetsuoshima0505]

yeah they are lyp singing coz i noticed it on top of the pops when feeder played they were lip singing its what top of the pops must insist

[Rache19]

well u aint heard lp live, trust me i hav an dey snd exactly like tht, they snd da same live, trust me they r awesome live, they snd like der r off der album, trust me.

[tetsuoshima0505]

yes most proberlly do sound great im just sayin coz most bans would add alterations like at one point shout c'mon or somthing but they just lip the song and fake play (only coz of top of the pops)

[CityGentAid]

Not even the prophets sound that good live!

[tetsuoshima0505]

yeah notice how the guitar solo is exact same and no diff in notes and im sorry no one can play an exact guitar solo with out at least hitting a wrong note once or going out of time/tune

[lostphoenix]

you obviously dont know anything about guitar then, that solo is so easy to play, but yeah this is a mimed performance, totps insist on it

[tetsuoshima0505]

no i dnt know anything about guitar coz im a drummer :P but yea i hate totp im soo glad they stoped it

[jessicabrophy]

but if you are in a professional band as big as lostprophets then youve gotta be pretty damn good to be in the band. trust me, lee gaze is absolutely AMAZING on guitar, man that guy has MILES of talent, i mean you have to be pretty damn good to do the solo in the first place!!

[JamieHorror]

They're not lip singing, the video is just slow. Trust me, I was there.

[gellybeanz123]

this is my fav song in whole world fuckin love it its me and lukes song :P

[joe5628]
