Fun fact...Henry won a grammy that year, but not for this tune but rather his audio book. apparently soundgarden won the music category and Chris Cornell during his acceptance said it belonged to Rollins Band. Award or not, they get the MVP for this one..Most Valuable Performance hehe..fierce af
@roccofoxtrot8743 that's the gayest thing I've read all day. Pop punk isn't edgy it's 35 year old men filled with estrogen and wanna bang 17yr old girls. Nothing cool about that.
agree! rollins band was one of my first gen admission concerts. there was quite a groundswell when he came onstage. ever see him do spoken word? must see for fans!
We need this now more than ever as people line up to be lied to with a smile on their faces. "Yes! That's what I want to hear. Oh, I love your soothing lies. Lie to me some more!" Grow some balls
HOLY SHIIIIIT HAHAHAHA! rollins in a suit FTW! nothing like watching him go fucking nuts in front of all those pretentious actors who don't know what the fuck is going on.
This is f'n awesome. I have loved Henry Rollins since I was in my early 20s. I'm 48 and I still think he kicks ass. He is one of the most intelligent, well spoken human beings on the planet.
Yep...Henry is pretty damn smart. He's also honest, does not back down from his opinions on major world and social issues. The dude has done his homework.
al final se equivocaron TODOS BIG TIME y la corto rapido...ya al principio se equivoca cantando...jaaa...imaginate como estarian..STILL ONE OF HE BEST BAND EVER..and Melvin in Bass kick ass REAL SOLID..☮
I remember seeing this live when I was 9 years old with absolutely no idea who he was or his legacy and just cracking up at the shoeless guy screaming. Gotta love Henry!
people seems to think, "what the fuck is going on here, everything was still and quiet and he comes to us like an affliction but he leaves us like an addiction...ha ha, thanks Henry for just beeing you.
I remember Rollins speaking about this during his spoken word tour in 1995. He spoke about the look of disgust on Peter Gabriel's face during this performance. Henry said that he always liked him before that performance, but that after this he didn't think that Gabriel was "as fucking cool."

GABRIEL ES EL MEJOR CANTANTE COMPOSITOR Y MUSICO DEL MUNDO....CHEQUEA LOS DISCOS DE GENESIS CON EL...CRAZY...PARA ESOS AÑOS
muchomusiclibre well, it was the 90s, the mainstream suddenly basically became interested with the underground just to be cool and to find the next big thing. A time where even a Death Metal band can join a major label (Morbid Angel was in Giant Records, which also had Chicago, Kenny Rogers, Oingo Boingo and Mc freaking Hammer, im not kidding)
Yeah just listened to that episode last night. I had totally forgotten about the band performing this on the Grammys and Rollins winning the Grammy for the audio book for Get in the Van. It seems almost surreal to look at it now. It was also interesting to learn from the podcast that 'liar' started out as a joke song for the band. I had no idea about the legal trouble Rollins had to endure during this period either.
This was the Grammys back in 1994. Henry Rollins performed here with Rollins Band, but he actually won a Grammy that year for his Spoken Word audiobook "Get in the Van'
I was there. Rollins band destroyed. All these pop music industry elites in tuxedos, mouths agape, faces melting. Shocked expressions like "what the hell is going on?! Put lip-syncong TLC back on stage!" It was awesome and hilarious.
Pause for appreciate that at one time...the Grammys had Rollins Band perform...former Black Flag/SOA...from the DC punk and hardcore scene. Kind of Surreal to think about.
There's something just a little bit wrong about seeing Henry Rollins in tuxedo, full on wish sash...? Awesome song, though! Love how they merged from the video into the live performance!
Just amazing. Henry said that Annie Lennox and Peter Gabriel were sneering at him during his performance. WTF is up with that? Clearly one of the best Grammy moments ever.
All the self important assholes in the audience were scared beyond shitless . They're all hoping " oh please don't go into the audience ". Hell yeah !!!! That's Rollins . Prime fucking Rollins . Thanks for posting this . You started my day off right with this .
He was before his time...those poor bastards must have been wondering what they were watching...even though the song is exactly what a lot of them were probably going through.
Fun fact...Henry won a grammy that year, but not for this tune but rather his audio book. apparently soundgarden won the music category and Chris Cornell during his acceptance said it belonged to Rollins Band. Award or not, they get the MVP for this one..Most Valuable Performance hehe..fierce af
It was Kim Thayil that said that but yes, just saw the video of their acceptance and wanted to find this
Kim Thayil said it
I always knew Chris Cornell was the coolest.
Oh shit, I didnt read the comment above mine...
Nope, Chris Cornell in 1994 winning against Henry Rollins said it belonged to Howard Greenwall
It was the Grammy Awards. That's why they dressed up. I remember this shit when I was younger. Bad ass then, bad ass today
Greatest stage entrance ever
Back when it wasn't taboo for the Grammy's to actually have some edgy shit on it
Hopefully that changes this year with the pop punk revival going on now
@roccofoxtrot8743 that's the gayest thing I've read all day. Pop punk isn't edgy it's 35 year old men filled with estrogen and wanna bang 17yr old girls. Nothing cool about that.
Henry Rollins - Rocker... poet... raging fury.
Excellent Clip - Thanks for sharing
The audience were left stunned....like WTF just happened?
Henry Rollins, dude still got it after all these years, I know he will keep on going.
agree! rollins band was one of my first gen admission concerts. there was quite a groundswell when he came onstage. ever see him do spoken word? must see for fans!
I bet Henry in 1981 touring in a beat up old van, all the crazy Black Flag shows, NEVER thought one day he'd be on a Grammy stage.
FUCKING INTENSE
We need this now more than ever as people line up to be lied to with a smile on their faces. "Yes! That's what I want to hear. Oh, I love your soothing lies. Lie to me some more!" Grow some balls
EFFF YASSS.
I see the tux from his senior prom still fits.
I believe this was The American Music Awards in either '93 or '94.
ROLLINS RULES!
pure anger in a smoking, awesome
What is year about ??? Thank you feedback !
i like the entire song but the intro kicks ass!!!!
lemonparty.
HOLY SHIIIIIT HAHAHAHA! rollins in a suit FTW! nothing like watching him go fucking nuts in front of all those pretentious actors who don't know what the fuck is going on.
that was so rushed!
Lovedisshit
Na. Cuts out too much of the song
He's not wearing any shoes.
I’m a Liar and I’ll will continue to be a Liar ah ha ha ha
damn somebody should have run up there in their suit and gone crazy, maybe started a very well-dressed pit
Tuxedo, no shoes. Rollins
Exactly, Rollins. :D
Ya know!!
..sounds like a spicy drink at a bar - "I'll have a Tuxedo, no shoes...make it a Rollins"
@@musicdragon333 most excellent
This song should be an opening act for every president's election event !!!
A lot of confused suits in the audience LMAO!
this is so raw compared to today
Word
I had a hard time believing the grammys actually allowed a live performace of this song. How the times have changed.
What would make this perfect,is shots of the horrified audience.
I wish there was crowd shot showing their expressions
You'd get shots of people like Annie Lennox looking totally disgusted! 😂😂😂
This is f'n awesome. I have loved Henry Rollins since I was in my early 20s. I'm 48 and I still think he kicks ass. He is one of the most intelligent, well spoken human beings on the planet.

I've been a fan since I was 14 and now I'm 45.
I wish the tuxedo would tear away revealing his hulking physique and signature short shorts
any doubt whether he was wearing the shorts underneath?
Michael Davidson what the fuck
Michael Davidson WTF did I just read?
@@Mahmood42978 Potentially the truth.
LOVING this concept!
Never realized how kick ass the guitar work is in this song
al final se equivocaron TODOS BIG TIME y la corto rapido...ya al principio se equivoca cantando...jaaa...imaginate como estarian..STILL ONE OF HE BEST BAND EVER..and Melvin in Bass kick ass REAL SOLID..☮
This is probably the most epic entrance ever!! Henry fucking Rollins!!!!
I remember watching this on the Grammys. I loved it and bought the album because of this performance.
One of his best songs. Dude is freakin awesome.......you wanna know why!?
CAUSE I’M A LIAR!!!!!!!
I remember seeing this live when I was 9 years old with absolutely no idea who he was or his legacy and just cracking up at the shoeless guy screaming. Gotta love Henry!
nice!
I love the fact that even though Henry has this wonderful tux on, the man still refuses to wear shoes on stage. Now that's commitment!
Probably one of the best tv/awards performances ever. On ya Henry
people seems to think, "what the fuck is going on here, everything was still and quiet and he comes to us like an affliction but he leaves us like an addiction...ha ha, thanks Henry for just beeing you.
You can't tell me nothin about that bass player. He is THE man!
I remember Rollins speaking about this during his spoken word tour in 1995. He spoke about the look of disgust on Peter Gabriel's face during this performance. Henry said that he always liked him before that performance, but that after this he didn't think that Gabriel was "as fucking cool."
Maybe he was disgusted at how badly Rollins fucked up the song? Anyway, Peter Gabriel was never cool.

GABRIEL ES EL MEJOR CANTANTE COMPOSITOR Y MUSICO DEL MUNDO....CHEQUEA LOS DISCOS DE GENESIS CON EL...CRAZY...PARA ESOS AÑOS
imagine that in 2021
I remember watching this, and not thinking at the time, he's mocking half the awards crowd, but I do now...
God, god, god..Rollins one of the funniest, real, intelligent, sensitive, vulnerable talent artists on earth
Anybody else see the irony of Rollins performing this in front of record executives and music stars like Michael Jackson and Madonna?
muchomusiclibre well, it was the 90s, the mainstream suddenly basically became interested with the underground just to be cool and to find the next big thing.

The Henry and Heidi podcast brought me here. Check it out, it's great!
Yeah just listened to that episode last night. I had totally forgotten about the band performing this on the Grammys and Rollins winning the Grammy for the audio book for Get in the Van. It seems almost surreal to look at it now. It was also interesting to learn from the podcast that 'liar' started out as a joke song for the band.

Same!! Best podcast ever.
The one just titled Rollins Band
Henry literally stole the show, who could follow that
brazilian people should listen to this shit
he makes me wanna mosh-pit or something. And I'm over 50!
Me too ...and I'm 63 ! Not lying !
Those vocals are awesome in this performance!
Love Henry's parody sentiment in this performance. Introduced by Berk from Aliens too, no less!
This was the Grammys back in 1994. Henry Rollins performed here with Rollins Band, but he actually won a Grammy that year for his Spoken Word audiobook "Get in the Van'
Third Herd I were 7 there
CUZ I'M A LAWYER :-D
I'M LARRY H. PARKER!!!
Henry attacks the audience like a fucking WARRIOR.
1:32 he sounded exactly like butthead lol
Love how Rollins still doesn't wear shoes
I've only seen him live doing stand up/talking stuff but I would die to see him perform. Love you, Henry!
I was there. Rollins band destroyed. All these pop music industry elites in tuxedos, mouths agape, faces melting. Shocked expressions like "what the hell is going on?! Put lip-syncong TLC back on stage!" It was awesome and hilarious.

Cool shit like this will never happen at the grammies ever again!
YOU WANNA KNOW WHY?!?!?!?!?!
How fucking funny is it to see Henry wearing a full on penguin suit WHILE performing?
Leave it to the Grammy awards to butcher a song.
Lol
@@thecollapseexperiment did... Did you reply to your own comment with that?
@@TheMeatghost isn't it obvious that someone deleted their comment?
you wanna know why !?
This was the only time I've ever watched the Grammys.
wow...pure talent...i love you henry
The lyrics to this song is Halarryous , just like my spelling - Kool video 😁✌️ thanks
Are we gonna talk about how the entire band rocked those tuxes?
hahaha this song is so ferocious
Rollins in a suit on stage... did hell freeze over?
I think this song was originally named lawyer.
we're clapping, but we don't know who, what, or why for
Mr Rollins is GREAT!!!!!!
🤤🤤🤤🤤
Is that the same tux he wore to the Bullis Prom?
Can Henry Rollins do the Oscars?
There's something just a little bit wrong about seeing Henry Rollins in tuxedo, full on wish sash...? Awesome song, though! Love how they merged from the video into the live performance!
Remember when the Grammys were cool........yeah me either!!! But, this is the shit!!!!!!
It's from the Grammy Awards at the Shrine Auditorium some time in the early '90s. I was there.
1995, just looked it up. Wish I could of been there, Rollins Band is one of my all time favorite bands!
....awesome!
This goes hard af
Just amazing. Henry said that Annie Lennox and Peter Gabriel were sneering at him during his performance. WTF is up with that? Clearly one of the best Grammy moments ever.
Temon
I always go barefoot when I wear tuxedos. which is very very often by the way.
by the way.. this happened??!???!?
CAUSE I'M A LIAR!
01:04 Chills
All the self important assholes in the audience were scared beyond shitless . They're all hoping " oh please don't go into the audience ". Hell yeah !!!! That's Rollins . Prime fucking Rollins . Thanks for posting this . You started my day off right with this .
Beavis and Butthead brought me there.
You wanna know why?
'CAUSE I'M A LIAR!
Hank playing live with not even just a shirt on but a full suit is a little shocking.
I saw this performance back then! Awesome, great! Thanks whoever uploaded this.
He was before his time...those poor bastards must have been wondering what they were watching...even though the song is exactly what a lot of them were probably going through.
i taped this onto audio cassette back then. Daily affirmation and I never realized it.
This performance give a faith no more vibe
If you know henry you know he was hating every second in that tux
yea the good ole days when bands actually play real musics
Raw as hell..Henry is the best..electro shocks the plants down there like M.Manson on empty tv.(and ripp your soul cut..)
God he's a bad ass.
play this for liars they get uncomfortable
