I've been watching this performance on RUclips for years, it is probably my favorite lineup of talented musicians playing tempted with Glenn Tilbrook and the amazing saxophonist David Sanborn who sadly died today. We will definitely be missing him. RIP David Sanborn 1945-2024 It's hard to believe so much time has gone by so quickly. I am 61 but can't understand where the time goes. It seems like just last week I was in my twenties. So sad to see him go. His work can be heard on many recordings. The stones miss you, David Bowie young American, and Bruce Springsteen, Billy Joel, and many other Rock, blues, r&b, pop, jazz, and just about every😮 genre of popular music.
Just when you think RUclips cant get any better you stumble upon another Masterpiece like this Glenn Tilbrook and one of the greatest sax players ever- Fantastic!!!! Thanks
this is a brilliant live performance. So nice to hear performers singing and playing their instruments live and sounding amazing...shout out to Hiram Bullock on guitar!
Yeah. Playing and singing live. That never happens since the Earth blew up and we escaped to whatever planet this is on the giant space ark. Christ, you're an idiot.
@@LisaGemini Hiram Bullock, as terrific as he was, was not a jazz guitarist. If you want to hear what jazz guitar sounds like, I'd suggest Kenny Burrell, Grant Green and Django Reinhardt.
@@Stratmanable Hiram was indeed a jazz guitarist. He played with Miles Davis and Gil Evans among others. What made him so unique is he could play jazz, funk, r&b, rock, folk and just about any other style and sound authentic which most jazz guitarists can't do.
No Paul Carrack on lead vocal or keyboards here, but wow, this is a fantastic version with Glenn Tilbrook doing all the vocals, the great late George Duke on the Hammond B-3 organ, David Sanborn on sax, and all of Squeeze in 1987. Thank you for sharing this gem of a post!
@@mikestevenson576 To me, it makes perfect sense. Both men have fantastic voices, but Carrack is better suited for this song. I prefer the timbre of his voice and his phrasing. Plus, I think his voice is more distinctive. Also, I feel like they were going for more of an "American" sound so that they could gain popularity in the states. Carrack definitely provides that sound. Just my opinion though.
A great song by great players who know how to play live. Props to the sound engineers on this - you can hear the kick and bass and the rest of the mix is great as well.
Wow, that just blew my mind. Paul Carrack (How Long Has This Been Goin On?) turned it into a smooth jazz song when he sang it - I love smooth jazz - but Glenn Tilbrook ripped it in genuine Squeeze fashion. Fantastic.
I just love this version--Glenn Tilbrook just nailed it! Saw these guys at a small college venue in Sioux Falls, SD when I was first married--best concert ever.
What a masterful song. There’s not a moment wasted, there’s not a move out of place, and for all of its sophistication it sounds so straightforward, deceptively so. And it builds like the best Motown track. Incredible.
David Sanborn hosting Sunday night playing his saxophone with whoever came around and it was all on PBS we can thank Johnny Carson And his production company for making that possible. That was the days when there were three channels and 80% of it was reruns and unless caught Soul Train or Don Kirschner on Saturday night, this was all the music you were going to get for another week on TV.!
@@bishlap Just picked a date from back in the day, I have a huge back catalogue of dates I can use if 1066 has an effect on yourself.....or is it maybe just the Brits you have a problem with? Either way all good and may I take this opportunity to ask all females from Haslington UK what there problem is with 1972?
I like this much more than the original. Partly because of Jool's being back, partly because of Tilbrook singing it all, partly because of the fresh energy, and partly because of the cool Sanborn sax. No goofy MTV video lameness, just pure musical chemistry by pros.
This song only went to #49 on the Billboard charts when it was released in '82. But here, seven years later it is rightly recognized for the classic new wave torch song that it is! The added sax and soul that is pumped into it here is how I've been hearing it in my head for nearly 35 years. One of my faves to play sing or slip in to the CD in the car.
I wish Jools would have Squeeze appear on “Later,” on The BBC some time . His program is always interesting but it would be great to see his old Squeeze mates Glen Tilbrooke and Paul Carrack and Chris Difford ! They should be the house band on that show. But alas the reality of bands and music is that people have their own lives and their own commitments and friendships get tested. Maybe it’ll happen one day?

Saw squeeze 4 times over the years they were great every time one of the best song writing partnership ever difford and tillbrook made some classic songs
I loved this live performance. Glenn's voice is so beautiful. The original version with Paul Carrack is a classic, but this live version sung by Glenn is wonderful. Glenn Tilbrook is an excellent musician, his perfect guitar and melodious voice are totally amazing.
Wish I could back to around 1990 and see this band I remember poster about their concert in town, now I wish I would have gone. At least someone hit the record button for Saturday Night Live and caught this band at their height. 👍
Top class and timeless quality i am 60 but thanks to google can play this to young people who like it as well thanks squeeze for all the pleasure your music has given me over the years does anybody know the physcology how music reflects moods thanks again

David Sanborn somehow made a perfect song reach new heights. What an incredibly talented man he was. RIP good sir
"I fumble for the clock, alarmed by her seduction" is a killer line.
A foot without a sock is even better.
Al
Alarmed by THE seduction
Tell a chick that and she will be slip and sliding on your face bro
IT IS!
One of the best songs ever..period
lejoe48 great great writing
I agree 100 percent.
@lejoe48 I like this song too
@Gio Mart ...depends on how long your 'best songs ever' list is, dude.
Black coffee in bed is a better tune
No one can sing it like Paul Carrak, BUT on this particular performance Tillbrook sings it AMAZINGLY. What a brilliant take of this incredible song.
Nice job right?
Don't really understand why they need Paul to sing the lead on this anyway. Still a great song Paul or Glen singing.
A+
Glenn rocks this very well.
Well said
Level of talent here is immense.
Rest in peace, David Sanborn 🎷
Best version of this beautiful masterpiece. The sultry sax really adds. RIP David.
Glenn's voice is what vocals should sound like! LOVE HIM!
+Keely Anne I love Glenn Tilbrook's voice.
+Keely Anne He's no Paul Carrack
Thank The Gods... Glenn's BETTER!
+Mike Atkins they are equally brilliant singers.
Give me a break, Paul has way better range and voice
Probably the best version of that song by Squeeze !!!! Awesome 👏
Some may object, but I prefer GT's voice over PC's on this.
But where was Difford???

this is a brilliant live performance. So nice to hear performers singing and playing their instruments live and sounding amazing...shout out to Hiram Bullock on guitar!
Damn, I thought that was him. Hiram is one of the top five jazz guitarists of all time in my book.

he only did the record and the vid

@@mikestevenson576 It was suggested by Elvis Costello, who co-produced the record. EC and the Squeeze guys held each other in high esteem.
Chris Difford was missing here.Wonder what happened to him?
David Sanborn on sax what a perfect touch for this great song
Geez this band was good. Really good.
An all-star cast on this one. I'm just discovering what a great talent Glenn Tilbrook is on vocals and guitar.
He's got to ba classed as one of the English pop/rock greats when it comes to being an all rounder. Guitar/vox and songwriting. Massively underrated.
In a class all by himself
"Was" a great singer.
Ok Tilbrook!! Bring jt!
@nancydenick1875 why "was"? Did he lose his voice or something?
Never get tired of this song. Tilbrook
Powerful vocal from Glenn on this.... brilliant 👍
A great song by great players who know how to play live. Props to the sound engineers on this - you can hear the kick and bass and the rest of the mix is great as well.
Yes. This. So rare to hear bass & kick drum in live-recording mixes.
Wow, that just blew my mind. Paul Carrack (How Long Has This Been Goin On?) turned it into a smooth jazz song when he sang it - I love smooth jazz - but Glenn Tilbrook ripped it in genuine Squeeze fashion. Fantastic.
Blame Elvis Costello for the delay...
What a wonderful rendition! Wow, that saxophone adds so much to the song. Incredible musicians, all of them.
Jools Holland is a legend! Proper music, not the shit we are force fed these days!
TherymasterWidnes ihb
So true. This is real talent
Unfortunately or fortunately Jools wasn't in the band when they recorded this song ...it was his replacement that sang it
TBH, No. But I still like both of them.

Squeeze had a college tour in 1987. I saw them at Franklin & Marshall College, Lancaster ,PA in 1987. Great concert !!!!
Kudos to the bassist. Didn't see much of him, but man! He's good
33 years later and still sounding great
What a masterful song. There’s not a moment wasted, there’s not a move out of place, and for all of its sophistication it sounds so straightforward, deceptively so. And it builds like the best Motown track. Incredible.
I’ve loved this song for 30 of my 44 years. But this live performance absolutely smashes it. And the sax part is stunning

So True! Isn’t it amazing to be able to sit and watch whatever and listen as many times as you like!!?!
This song still hits hard and a tight live performance, respect
Great performance by all but especially Glen Tilbrook! What a voice.
Real blue eyed soul - what a masterpiece
My favorite sing-along driving song (when no one else is in the car).
Possibly my favourite ever live performance of this brilliant track
What a magnificent band. I look back on the 80s and realize what an embarrassment of riches the British gave us.
Don't u mean the 60's and 70's?

Oversized jackets w rolled sleeves. I loved that look so much back then. I’m bringing it back.
Holy Jesus!! that was incredible, the energy!
Everyone is so handsome and well dressed 80s in this video.
Still my fav love squeeze seen them several times and Glen solo is superb highly recommend 🎶🎶🎶🎶
Tillbrook rocks but what a treat to see Hiram on this video too! RIP Hiram
Yes, so sad when great talents like Hiram leave us so early...

Amazing version of this song! DS on the sax was awesome 🤩
When you have George Duke pushing out the Hammond B-3 Organ parts, you ain't gonna do wrong.
Whoa! Good eye. RIP George
Great and favourite song and group
Glenn Tilbrook's vocals on this are hypnotic. The sax solos ready add alot too.
I have heard this song a thousand times. It just gets better and better
Sophisticated pop music,by people who could actually play and write.What an odd concept.
oleole52 Yeah, bit weird really innit.
oleole52 it is called talent! Rare now
Very true, but the song was actually written by Paul Carrack. Still love Squeeze though.
kobayashimaru65 The chord structure and constant key shifts are simply astonishing.
The song was sung by Paul Carrack but written by Tilbrook and Difford.
Thank you....Amazing
Glen sings this brilliantly. Best live gersion of it ive ever heard and ive seen them many times
Paul's vocals are great for this song but Glenn really takes it the extra mile with his unique Lennon-esque vocals.
Whewwwwwwww!! blown away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
.Fantastic song of my youth. Great addition with David Sanborn.
1:08
I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste
A flannel for my face
Pajamas, a hairbrush
New shoes and a case
I said to my reflection
"Let's get out of this place"
Passed the church and the steeple
The laundry on the hill
Billboards and the buildings
Memories of it still
Keep calling and calling
But forget it all, I know I will
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
What's been going on
Now that you have gone
There's no other
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
I'm at the car park, the airport
The baggage carousel
(The people keep on grindin')
Ain't wishing I was well
I said it's no occasion
(It's no story I could tell)
At my bedside empty pocket
A foot without a sock
Your body gets much closer
I fumble for the clock
Alarmed by the seduction
I wish that it would stop
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
What's been going on
Now that you have gone
There's no other
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
I bought a novel, some perfume
A fortune all for you
But it's not my conscience
That hates to be untrue
I asked of my reflection
Tell me what is there to do?
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
What's been going on
Now that you have gone
There's no other
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered

Glenn Tilbrook - what a fantastic vocalist and songwriter (and British!!!)
Wow, this is one of the best things I've seen for a while. Pure quality musicians absolutely nail it live!
If you saw Squeeze Live in the 80’s you saw them at their best. This is a very good performance though.
This is 1987.
You haven't seen them lately. They kill it?
Man, this hits home.
This is the kind of Music I grew up to. LIVE Music !!!
I love Hourglass and Tempted
Love this version!
Squeeze with David sanborn are you kidding me?!!
Squeeze was the S--T in the early 80's! Watched many a submarine races listening to em!!!!!
Fantastic David Sanborn on sax ❤
2:16 - 2:54 gives me goosebumps. Glenn's vocals...just wow. 🥰
Saw squeeze 4 times over the years they were great every time one of the best song writing partnership ever difford and tillbrook made some classic songs
Definitely up there at the top with other song writing duos.
SUCH a great version! And David Sanborn to boot!
Wow! Just beautiful
probably some of the best pop lyrics ever written
Pure fire. Lightning in a bottle. 🙌
Everything about this is just top. Amazing song, sublime live cut, great vocals, musicianship - bass guitar, sax - off the chart. Thanks for sharing!
This was such a great show. too bad it only lasted a couple of years. all star musicians jamming with each other every week.
Dude... you're so talented.
Stunning array of musical talent
one of the best bands ever !!
It's a great thing to watch a band gel like this, they all know it's working and raise their game. Fantastic performance.
What a talented group. Paul Carrick’s vocals were shear class but Glenn is brilliant as well
Carrack.
Privileged to see squeeze Olympia theatre Dublin Ireland amazing 😍
This version is far better than any other I have seen, pity it wasn’t the first
Lots of brass and sax
Was lovely to see these guys at Glastonbury a few years back, they were so knocked out by the reaction and love from the audience.
I remember seeing this on tv. It brings back so many memories of the 80's an awesome time to be alive.
What a fantastic performance of it! ♥♥
I love this version!
I loved this live performance. Glenn's voice is so beautiful. The original version with Paul Carrack is a classic, but this live version sung by Glenn is wonderful. Glenn Tilbrook is an excellent musician, his perfect guitar and melodious voice are totally amazing.
I was fortunate enough to see them live back in early 80's when they played a small venue here in Staten Island, N.Y....GREAT SHOW!!!
Anyone else see the similarities with Squeeze and Crowded House?
I see them and it's the voice quality of Glenn Tillbrook and Neil Finn, their voices are very similar.
sam hubball never looked until now. 😃
Little River Band also.
sam hubball the best song Neil Finn never wrote.
Actually, he would do a CRACKING cover of this.
Wish I could back to around 1990 and see this band I remember poster about their concert in town, now I wish I would have gone. At least someone hit the record button for Saturday Night Live and caught this band at their height. 👍
Version is HOT! Great performance was had by all.
November 2020 and this song still sounds awesome.
Love this song
Best UK band ever in my book
The best sax player ever for me, his work with Bowie on David Live is simply wonderful
Saw Glenn last night and his voice is still awesome! What a great performer who looks like he's having a good time on stage.
our greatest singer songwriter guitarist since McCartney and Clapton with the jazz legend Dave Sandborn...it dont get much better...love to you all
Fabulous! I loved this group!
Rest in Peace Hiram Bullock
I missed this show so much. It ended too soon.
