  • I love this song and this concert from Brixton..........Mike Patton is hilarious, he just mummbles....they actually first started rap and metal fusion with the song Epic i think

  • tremenda version !! muy buena

  • My fave.

  • Ahead of there time. this song is just fucking EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • My favourite band and singer ever!!!!!!!!! Love badly Mike Bordin too!!! So much versatility and ecclectism. This is ART.

  • this is one of the most under rated songs i know of, this is one of the most fantastic songs i know and in my opinion, this is the best faith no more song, and this verison kicks ass!

  • i agree

  • Im i the only who wishes that I could sing like mike patton????

  • @MikePattonFan24 No, Brandon Boyd really wishes he could. Badly.

  • pure classic

    

  • i miss the guitar dude. he was awesome.

  • Patton's a lunatic. All the geniuses are.

  • find this 3!

  • @Lavern4101

    Nope. I really mean The Real thing :) The element that's everything. If you feel like yr too close, just swallow another dose. Once you have bitten the core you will always know the flavour. :)

  • I know the feeling!

  • No one but Patton has ever managed to put the psychedelic experience into words so well. The real thing is a very, very difficult thing to do justice in descriptive form. A lyrical work of genious! But I guess no less is to be expected from a genious.

  • coiso

  • all the people at that show are so lucky getting to see history in the making, damn it would be great to be there.

  • Who ever the fuck "Dislikes" Faith No More is wrong, correct?

  • il ruttazzo è molto rock ! ;-)

  • Music doesnt suck today...... just the people who play it.

    there just isnt anyone good yet, but there will be

  • Music doesnt suck today...... just the people who play it

  • hahaha 5:04, one second he's into it and then he does that without cracking a smile. Hilarious.

  • SUCH A BIG VOICE

  • I saw this when I was 15 years ago and it changed my life.

  • Huuuuuuuuuuge like

  • what is the history with the guitar player where is he

  • @koolaidman10 -From what I read, he is in an annual pumpkin contest every year in the Bay area I believe, and didn't he start Behemoth way back? Jim was underrated, and well, the band was before its time and stands the test of time. This is musical genius!

  • @gyrusscalvary Underrated is an understatement. As to the founder question, if you mean Behemoth the death/black metal band from Poland, then no there's no way Martin was a founder. Possibly there is another band named Behemoth but I'm not aware if there is. That shirt always made me think whenever I have viewed this performance(The first several dozen times was on videocasette tape a couple decades ago.) Looks like it reads "Half-Life"... a band; or album...?...

  • pure 90's...fucking amazing!!...Mike Bordin...OMFG!!

  • Mike Bordin on drums is like God in Heaven.... on his natural environnement!!!

  • This should've been called "Epic"

  • orgazmic vocalz <3

  • this band saved metal from grunge!!!

  • @OzBeastRabban I don't think "saved" would be the right term, but they did give a very good option instead of grunge.

  • @OzBeastRabban FNM aren't metal at all, and you are aware that "grunge" kicks ass right? It's post-grunge that is terrible, for the most part.

  • jim martin is still one of the most underrated guitar players.

  • @mwells219  ohyeah, you got that right.

  • Burp.

  • Sounds like he's got a cold or something here, but Mike's voice is fucking great. Personally, I love the vox starting at 1:40

  • YOU CAN'T REFUSE THE EMBRACE!!!

  • I so hope my daughter marries someone like Mike Patton one day. 

  • Best front man and vocalist

  • Their best song.

  • FNM are the essence of the truth

  • Fucking amazing.

  • i know the feeling....

  • @junglistninja ...It is the real thing...

  • Hammer Song! Eines der besten von Faith no More!

  • one of the best moments in my life was seeing FNM live in liverpool... the real thing was fuckin brilliant live......

  • god, i only ever knew "epic" by them,

    i just started checking out their other stuff finally...

    sooo much better than epic...

  • My Username - Click it to see more

  • each of their performance is so unique and powerfull, even now in their 40s they kick ass

  • @anuskaleok good stuff fnm

  • God Pattons brilliant and the band is just the perfect compliment to him. FNM is probably my all time favorite band. I only wish they were going to tour the US this time :(

  • Awesome!

  • better than the studio version!

  • @MMBinNC Yeah easily

  • @MMBinNC As great as this live performance is, I'd disagree. The studio version really touches me deeply when I hear it. One of if not the most emotionally charged songs ever.

  • God I love Mike Patton !! <3

  • 5:06

  • What an awesome performance

  • they're playin in dublin where i'm from and all the tickets are sold out i'm heartbroken!!!!!!!!!!!!!!not quick enough was in hospital typical..

  • he is fucking gorgeous

  • totally agree!!!!!!!!!

  • Actually, Patton is not. Roddy is gay.

  • @SanctumNecare disgruntled chilli pepper fan

  • Best live show, best sound, and best line up. You fat Bastards....

  • I still have that tape from 1989... Classics

  • Ainda bem que eles VOLTARAMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!

  • Awesomeness

  • i wish Jim was with them still...

  • seeing then tonight in same venue, can't wait!

  • Jim's guitar really cuts it on this. Awesome.

  • on tour without jim ..........still doesnt seem right

  • agreed

  • @snidley1979 i heard they asked him to tour but jim declined. 

  • Just in that nostalgic yet obsessive mood today that can only be summed up by this song...thanks for posting...

  • FNM RULE>

  • BRILL!!!

  • 2:35 !!!

  • yes! got tickets for 10th june!! better be as chaotic as it was back in the day!! :D

  • FUCK N OATH ! mme too.... better be EPIC!! else i'll be pissed right owrf... a part of me will die.... forever....

  • 10th of June they play again in Brixton Academy. Hope it will be something as good as this...

  • Thee evolution of Mike Patton.

    almost doesnt seem like the same dude.

  • I saw them in Cincinnati when they broke big in the late 80's. My friend was their A&R rep for Reprise records. Went backstage, took the whole band to our favorite bar and gulp long islands. No after party because we were from fucking lame ass Cincinnati. Epic failure on our part.

  • es increible esta cancion .. demasiado buena uffff aquellas epocas

  • 29 goin to 30 soon!! I was only 13 on my basement playing the drums to this song. at this age and the future I am what FNM made to be, 'the real thing" is my bible. Amen.

  • They left out the bit at the start where he farts into the mic and says "It was real"

  • thats on "Edge Of The World"

    same show.

  • Mick is a mad singer! This performance take me away to 90s)))

  • cant wait for download! you reckon they will play this there?

  • Faith no more baby :) download!!!! im ther

  • FNM IS BACK on download festival

    OMG!

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

  • Faith No More never be same...

  • faith no more is back!!!

  • Robbie, i was at the front row of that wembley gig all day. Hottest day of the year, it nearly fucking killed me lol.

  • Yeehaa!! they are touring Europe again in 2009!!

  • indeed! viva faith no more !big love! XxXxXxXxXxX

  • Fucking amazing song, one of my fav ever!

  • just gives me goosebumps...Long live Faith no more!!

  • every time i hear this song it takes me back too when they supported GNR at Wembley in 92 and they played this, fucking brilliant

  • That was the same gig that Soundgarden also supported... what a hot June day that was !!!

  • I was there that day too. Before they came on everyone expected Epic era hot pants and dancing about - they opened with caffeine and ripped everyone's face off. The most impressive first track I've ever seen anyone do, still in awe of it.

  • i really think they blew GNR of the stage that day, i'll be honest with you all i went as a Motley Crue fan that day, but came home obsessed with Faith No More, i remember my chest pounding at the start of Caffeine, i have the gig on casseate tape, i would love to see a video of the show tho

  • im 12 and i jerk off to mike pattons picture every day

  • This is 7 months old, but.. ROFL

  • this song was so ahead of its time, seriously... what a great jam.

  • awesome lyrics. It's been ten years without Faith No More in the world and it's sucked. They're missed greatly.

  • very nice video that whole gig

  • Man, this reminds me of seein' these guys at the Omni in Oakland with Primus opening. Maybe 18 years ago. Anybody else go to that?

  • This is a GREAT song, an EXCELLENT performance!.

  • im 27 now, i was jammin this tape in my walkman in 3rd grade. FNM has always been one of my main bands

  • This song always sounds incredible (especially on vinyl) but this has got to be one of the best versions.

  • 32 years old now heard this for the first time when i was 15 and this sounds every bit as good now as it sounded then. There wasnt one bad song on this album, a true classic

  • Same here, can't agree more m8.

    Cheers

  • 35.Faith No More and Led Zeppelin rule because they are searchers

  • so good

  • Hellbendzor, i could not have said it better. From this cd to there last, i love them all!!! Ground breaking band!!! Come on FNM, get back together, do it again!!!

  • Currently 34... The real thing takes me back to when I was 15... 19 years laters still a fan... Too bad they split up... But what a legacy they left behind...

  • I'm 18 and this is my favourite band.

  • What a gig the DVD is brilliant, I fucking love it.

  • im sitting here pissed from drinking speyside and loving this song as it reminds me of my childhood. im only 32 like. but this band is superb

  • hell yeah man. me too, 32 in a few days and this was freshman year in high school...that perfect moment that golden moment...

  • try 35 and still loving these bastards

  • only 30 and loving it!

  • Ah, man, 33 here, and this is taking me right back to schooldays.

    This album is even better than I remember it being. There aren't many that you can say that about.

  • This is one of my favorite songs of all time. This is fantastic songwriting from a classic album. Every song from this album was amazing.

  • Absolutely f*ckin champion!

  • whats the next song that starts right at the end?

  • sounds like underwater love to me..

  • it is

  • Underwater love.

  • After the link type &fmt=18 Faith no more in HD. This performance is still the best.

  • bring back fnm i love them :)

    and that speacks for alot o other people x

  • For example me

  • yay

  • yoy

  • mousebiscuit said it perfectly

  • Mike Patton è un dio...esibizionista al punto giusto e forse anche di piu, altrettanto geniale e bravo con la voce...

  • che spettacolo!!!!!!!!!!!! grande mike!!

  • top tune!

  • Please pay attention to the flautophonia in

    4:56 and 5:19 it came from a great italian singer call Demetrio Stratos. A man able to sing with 2 0r 3 different voices at the same time. Please watch on you to what him is able to do with his voice...please in important to don't forget a great singer die too young

  • BRING BACK FNM!!! I just want another tour, just one. And it would need to have Patton for sure and Jim Martin, because in great guitar players no one ever brings him up and he's awesome. One of the best albums ever was The Real Thing and I miss FNM :(

  • Nothing alternative about Mr. Bungle, Fantomas and Tomahawk.

    Oh and that little EP he did with Dillinger Escape Plan...

    Peeping Tom is a bit of a different story. But it's still too weird to be "catchy."

  • What a powerful song.

    I wish Patton will go back to his roots and make some new stuff like this.

    He's music became too alternative.

  • When are his novels coming out?

  • uuuuuuuuuffff AWESOME PERFORMANCE

  • I love how sharp and smooth his voice used to be

  • used to be?????? it still is

  • did you hear him with tomahawk live...God awful

  • ...........I love this tune, it has everything you could need from a piece of music!! melody, power, light and shade, brilliant performances all round and just a killer tune!!! The Real Thing CD will allways be one of my most treasured CDs!!! Great album!! Stunning in fact!!

  • TONNES of undeniable energy, they tapped a vein for a while!!!!

  • I was at this concert. I went against my will. Matt Bonner made me go. It was one of the top 5 concerts I have ever been to.

  • this is the first FNM song ive heard. this is one crazy version from one of the best musicians that ever existed. BTW mike patton looks like brendan fraser in California Man aka Encino Man...lol

  • love this band!!!! one of my fav FNM songs too

  • I know the feeling It is the real thing The essence of the truth The perfect moment That golden moment I know you feel it too I know the feeling It is the real thing You can't refuse the embrace... It's like the pattern below the skin You gotta reach out and pull it all in And you feel like you're too close So you swallow another dose The pinnacle of happiness
  • jim is gone anyway so he already said that he would not rule it out

  • Damn I love this song.Amazing.Best version I have seen of this.

  • Mike Patton and Jim Martin absolutely hate each other, that is why a second gen FNM reunion will never happen...

  • Out of all of the reunion tours why cant we get a Faith No More reunion DAMMIT?!

  • These guys are so rich. It would never happen. Puff Drums for Frickin' Ozzy, Jim grows Giant Pumpkns, Patton has a record label and another band that will never reunite, billy does something music related and Roddy is a rich gay dude in San Fran(not that theres anything wrong w/ that) It will never happen!

  • mike is the best singer EVER
