I saw Living Colour back in 1993 headlining for Bad Brains and I walked in expecting to hear old faves like "Cult of Personality" and new hits like "Leave it alone". What I got was an amazing live experience that many bands today are incapable of. Corey Glover's energy was the thing that got everyone's attention, from his climbing the speakers to being carried out into the audience and the music was top notch. The capper was the on-stage jam session with Bad Brains after the show...!!!
the bad part of this band always been the recording side.....and honestly even if they are good musicians they are not that good songwriting there is a big difference.....
Living Colour... quite possibly the most underappreciated band of all time. Insanely talented guys! Jazz, metal, rock, funk, reggae, pop, these guys could do it all, and more importantly, sound amazing while doing it! xD
HeLLo EvEryONE My name is Angie Medina and Im 17 years old Im in a small town, but I have big dreams I play guitar and flute My dream is to be a singer I sing from the heart and stay true I know alot of people hate when artists like me make comments like this But I am different I promise that... if u give me a chance i'll show u And I would like that my dream can come true with the help of you guys So please stop by my channel and check out my cover Please help me get my dream Thank you so much
If Black Rappers were as good as Black Rockers.. I'd like Rap... but until that day, I'll keep jamming out to a band that never made it as big as they should have! Living Colour always rocked!!! And.. for those of you that don't know it, they STILL ROCK!!!! :)
@Joeybsmooth O I know some are, but I mean like the cleaner stuff man. You know, I miss the old days when RUN DMC was the big "IT" thing going on, ya know? It's just not the same anymore, not for rap, or any other genre, or so it seems. But Living Colour, well, they will always rock! :D
I rebought the Stain album a few month backs...only because I let a co-worker borrow it and he never gave it back. So...I went to Dimple Records and found the red jewel case edition for 1.99. I listened to the whole thing like 3 times last night. Stain still is my favorite Living Colour album. And I really dig the mix of this song. Anyone know where I can find a download? Kazaa peerhaps?
The group was underrated as a whole. They were probably one of the most original bands of the 90's, yet they got no attention. Stain is still a great album, some 18 yrs (give or take) later. Has anyone else heard the acoustic version of this song? Absolutely amazing.
Whats this original version everyone keeps going on about? I've only just go back into Living Colour after about 15 years, and this is the only version i've ever heard?
It's one of my favorite's band of the 90's. I discovered them in a concert in France, and WOW i took my firt spank in my face by the force of them nrj !! i missed them a lot...
I have not heard the original and this is my first exposure to this song, I got to say guys the original might be good too but this is also really goo, like if I had it on repeat it would take me about 5 go throughs be fore 1) i realized and 2) i cared enough to go to the next song. love it!
I much prefer the original. I guess they tampered with it to make it more "radio-friendly", and yet it still didn't do that well... maybe they should've left it alone
Just another fantastic piece from Living Colour, LC - thank you so much for your music, creativity, positive vibe and groove - absoolute kings of the unknown!!!
@Spyrofan246 People just don't appreciate real talent anymore. Unfortunately, if you don't fit the stereotypical image of an artist (metrosexual bieber, trampy teen kesha) you're not worthy of musical greatness. That's the sad thing, there's absolutely nothing great about these artist today. They're talentless and have no character content. Hell, they can't even sing...they just look good in the spotlight.
@sjk72 Staind...it's underated b/c it's fans are promoting the wrong album b/c 70%of them are either stupid like you or just plain worthless,never saw such a good band w/such a pitiful following. But yes Staind, in the Red case is a hugely underated album of the 1990's,this being the high point
@32Rainking Firstly, why are you so angry? Secondly, the album by Living Colour is called "Stain", not "Staind". "Staind" as you so eloquently put it, is a whiny, annoying band from 10 years ago(and has nothing to do with the subject of your little rant). You should really get your facts straight before you start criticizing people on the internet for no discernible reason. Have a nice day :)
@sjk72 NO-faggot idiot morons check their facts 1st,I'm right 98% of the time,so this time I was wrong,it doesn't happen much.I don't know why I'm so angry-maybe b/c this country sucks now and 75% of the people in the world &99% of mexicans just need to be executed.Maybe I long for the time when I listened to the album constantlyIDK-but I'm correct,it had a red case and the tape was red too.I didn't keep the case&I listened2 the tape so often the words wore off.
@sjk72 But I can't stress enough-I'd rather rely on my own brain&be wrong 2-4%of the time than have the internet function as my brain.I also hate that,another reason I'm angry;I also hate the spoiled rich people who control 95% of the money-the top 1%-I hate how weak people are-I hate that you can't have a fair one w/somebody in public w/o a bitch pusbag calling the cops,I hate Mentos-they suck-their texture&the fact they exist irritates me,so does theproduct called Selsen Blue,I hate cellphones
