Saw them in The Royal Albert hall doing ladies and gentlemen album when it was only out.Eing out of it,most amazing gig I was at,went from Dublin that morning on the ferry.Watched the gig from a private box owned by this couple in their 60s who just went to any show they wanted,very surreal and emotional experience, people were crying and the building was shaking.
I experienced the same thing albeit in a much smaller venue, Manchester Apollo (one of my fave venues) and i have to agree it was a very intense and emotional evening.
Idk wtf some of these people are talking about the first two songs not being great or entertaining, they're beautiful and at the end they top it off with some hard rocknroll
imagine if you didnt know Spiritualized, and you just came across this vid by browsing. Then after thinking "ok, a good indie band", the REAL Spiritualized show up during "You Lie, You Cheat"......... You would only think "Wow".....
So freaking underrated in America... I can't wait for the new album the new stuff sounds amazing.. I really thought J.spaceman might start slowing down after Amazing Grace... Songs in A&E was one of their best albums!
His name is Tony "Doggen" Foster, and it has to be said that he is incredible! Everyone focuses on Jason, but for me, Doggen is just as big a part of Spiritualized.
j hu Pete isn't in the same galaxy as Jason in terms of songwriting ability. His solo stuff bears that out. His highpoint as a songwriter was the brilliant first side of Recurring. Apart from that he's not written a single stand-out track in his life. His great contribution was in spurring Jason on to write more experimental stuff when he was in the Spacemen.
The greatest part is he frequently admits to being at best a very basic guitarist. But boy can he compose some brilliant songs with 2 or 3 chords. If you've got a great band behind you too it helps booster up the sound.
had the pleasure in brighton 06/11/12,blew me away again,would love to know the name of the tune at the end when the bass almost demolished the building,never felt that much power from a guitar.
had a look at the comments first and had no idea what the fuck you were talking about... came here through browsing after being on "you wish you were red" by "trailer trash traceys" .. then "you lie, you cheat" came on. your status now officially makes sense. fucking good!
Erm...not it isn't, I don't know who it is but he isn't Weller's son. Bruce Rick Weller are just all the surnames of the people in The Jam, put the crack pipe down.
Yes indeed that was an epic episode of "Later," including Alison Krauss & Robert Plant, the Fratellis, Chris Difford, Emmylou, and Buddy Miller thrown in for good measure.
These are _not_ highpoints in the Spiritualized back-catalogue. Soul On Fire's good-ish, Sweet Talk is a nothingy kind of track and You Lie, You Cheat is, again, good-ish. Anyone experiencing Spiritualized for the first time from this video would do well to instead go and check out Yeah Yeah, which is a sharp, focused bullet of a rock song, or Rated X and The Ballad Of Richie Lee, which are two of the most beautiful songs Jason Pierce ever wrote. All three are from around the same period in the mid-to-late noughties as the three, vastly inferior songs in this video.
A band for the real 'I want to fit in with the rest of the indie kids', but not for those who want something different. There's not much about Independent music at the moment, the only real independent things are the record label, the music sticks to the same rules, which is what indie music is meant to be avoiding.
jukeboxbaby1 Bono wishes he could write like this, he simply isn't able too, he hasn't lived through the same things and has never, in my opinion, been able to recapture the magic of 80s, early 90s U2. That is just my opinion, I am not one who normally goes around saying this or that band used to be so much better. In the case of U2 it just happens to be true.

Might be my favourite band of all time. Such a body of work, and amazing live.

That would be just about the biggest event of my life if I'd been there

Incredible. Pierce always makes the live show a near religious experience.
Yeah, he looks like The Reverend Jim Jones in those idiotic sunglasses.
Spiritualized Shipping Company.
Long-trip specialists.
Idk wtf some of these people are talking about the first two songs not being great or entertaining, they're beautiful and at the end they top it off with some hard rocknroll
They blow it up at the end....pure spiritualized spacem3n. Thank you Spiritualized.
A beauty. So few bands have sounded this good on that programme, and Jay's so underrated it's bleedin' ridiculous.
he is not underrated
Amazing performance..!! This Band is so Great..
Pure unadulterated genius
stellar performance
Best trips I ever had!
Absolute amazing
Amazing!
@TheLexyboy That's like listening to Shine A Light, it starts all nice and mellow, then it erupts! Unbelievable!
born on a black day, shot through with starlight.
don't know where we're going...set my soul on fire.
I think I'm in love 😍
I really want to meet a girl that likes this band, not all the people understand this kind of music..
LuisWayne8 people don't, angels do

Yeah, thats what happened to me a couple years ago. And I came back!
MAN.I AM HOOKED.GOODTUFF.
Always reminded me of Ash did spiritualized
Jason P is the greatest song writer in my book!!
Ever hear of Pete Kember?
j hu Pete isn't in the same galaxy as Jason in terms of songwriting ability. His solo stuff bears that out. His highpoint as a songwriter was the brilliant first side of Recurring. Apart from that he's not written a single stand-out track in his life. His great contribution was in spurring Jason on to write more experimental stuff when he was in the Spacemen.

sonners2239 take me to the other side a spacemen 3 song
❤
One fucking word: maravilhoso
same here, but still enjoy 'em. yeah, we're old farts.
Epic Beauty Noise
@lilywhiteriot wow I thought they would be a lot bigger in the UK! I guess the masses are lame everywhere!
La cara de las coristas en el desafinado al final es priceless
Totalmente, no se puede decir que estuvieran impresionadas jajaja
got my tickets for the 9:30 show.
we need to put black backup singers and violins into all music
Gospel singers and violins rock
crack up, those backup singers are all standing there like wtf at the end
SpiritualiGed ...

The Original Digital Prototypes
tonight's the night of the vampire
this just happened to me
cool roky erickson t-shirt
fucking amazing end
jason♥
classic version of soul on fire. and if you did the amount of illegal drugs he's done you'd be dead so there. although, you never should say never.
escucha los 15 anos atras
Jason be taking cues from Joy Division on You Lie You Cheat
Cooler than Ghallagher
Thats what happened to me.
son spiritualized bien
10:17 marc bolan
I think it's Pär Wiksten @ Wannadies
3:02 o.o
That guitar player looks like neil young its hilarious
Hey - was just at the gig myself. Curious to hear what you thought..?
still with us m8?
I don't know what that means so this might happen to me...
Who is that guitar player?
7:28 ???
It makes me really sad that while such amazing noise was going on you were focusing on such minuscule unimportant details. :(
Erm...not it isn't, I don't know who it is but he isn't Weller's son. Bruce Rick Weller are just all the surnames of the people in The Jam, put the crack pipe down.
well listen to the 13th floors then.
who is that @ 4.00 ? Looks for all the world like Emmylou Harris - is it?
Yes.
Yes indeed that was an epic episode of "Later," including Alison Krauss & Robert Plant, the Fratellis, Chris Difford, Emmylou, and Buddy Miller thrown in for good measure.
LOL
hahaha
Oh, fuck me.
First two... no. Last one FUCK YES!!!

Excellent recommandation, thanks! Totally agree
someone gets it
Sound quality is appalling. Surely there's a decent quality version of this.
Such a shame, can't appreciate the full magnificence of the performance.
A band for the real 'I want to fit in with the rest of the indie kids', but not for those who want something different. There's not much about Independent music at the moment, the only real independent things are the record label, the music sticks to the same rules, which is what indie music is meant to be avoiding.
Honestly, Spiritualized is too clean, almost sounds like U2. Spacemen 3 sounds much more soulful.
jukeboxbaby1 Sounds more like Slowdive and mojove 3 ... Sounds nothing at all like U2. Watch yourself silly.
jukeboxbaby1 Bono wishes he could write like this, he simply isn't able too, he hasn't lived through the same things and has never, in my opinion, been able to recapture the magic of 80s, early 90s U2. That is just my opinion, I am not one who normally goes around saying this or that band used to be so much better. In the case of U2 it just happens to be true.
jukeboxbaby1 oh my dear lord, please go and wash your mouth for writing this haha. U2 my ass 🤣
sorry brother, but U2 are a short cut to thinking when it comes to music! Plus Bono is an evil mother TWAT!!!!!!!
boring
Kinda boring. I fear he'll never scale the same heights as Ladies and Gentlemen again.
Fear not.
Not really my cup of tea. Sound is boring to me. Just like any other generic indie band. Doesnt satisfy my soul. :P
