You're expecting Joey's guitar and it goes all softer than you think. It's nice to see the bones of the song, something like he would have orginally demoed to show the others the song. But on it's own it's deliciously fragile. What an artist.
as a fantasy and science fiction reader, i like the mythology and paranormal references in his songs. his voice and Kim's voice were magical together, and he sounds good here by himself
I love his lyrics. Good that he remains faithful to his initial rendition of his songs in terms of tone and pace. I'm not a big fan of reworking stuff. Shows that he clearly likes his own work and doesn't need to lazily deliver it differently through boredom.
"Underrated" there's that nonsense YT category again.... I don't know anyone that knows their apples from their pears that'd dare to utter such a nonsensical claim. People like you with your addiction to making big claims based on your narrow view make me laugh. Idiot
Hold my head, we'll trampoline Finally through the roof onto somewhere near and far in time Velouria, her covering, traveling career She can really move, oh, Velveteen My Velouria, my Velouria Even I'll adore you, my Velouria Even I'll adore you, my Velouria Say to me, where have you been? Finally through the roof And how does lemur skin reflect the sea? We will wade in the shine of the ever We will wade in the shine of the ever We will wade in the tides of the summer, every summer Every my Velouria, my Velouria Forevergreen, I know she's here in California I can see the tears of Shastasheen My Velouria, my Velouria Even I'll adore you, my Velouria Even I'll adore you, my Velouria
@@therespectedlex9794 Tears of shasta sheen refers to Mount Shasta which is located somewhere or other and supposedly homes the people of Lemuria,twin city of Atlantis.Not sure where the tears bit comes from.Or the sheen
thank you for posting this. i wish he could have told the story uninterrupted. i never knew what this song was about before this. it makes me love the song all over again.
I still just can't believe how many good songs this guy has written. Not just with Pixies, but the Frank Black solo albums are ridiculous as well. Get Teenager of the Year if you don't have it already!
My favorite Pixies song by far. Love the Weezer cover as well. I had a summer romance end today with the girl moving away. There was nothing I could do but loop this song...
@@nathanb5579 Yes. I wish it were a happier story over a decade later, but unfortunately it's not. I still think about her some, and she did reach out a few times and tell me I was the best man she ever met, but that's where the story ends. Occasionally I'll reminisce on the good memories, but now that I'm out of the haze of infatuation, I can see I was really just a rebound. C'est la vie.
he doesnt ramble. when he explains his songs he doesn't want to confuse people with his strange musings. So he hesitates to explain something because he knows they won't understand. I hear him do this often.
shows how people cant just listen anymore, they always need to cut to the chase, well thats not the school where real talents like Frank come from, they understand history and philosophy and feel like explaining sometimes, why the newer generations have nothing these days, just bullshit ppl
@machbaby Fmsus4. I think it's called. Barre the 1st and 2nd (and 6th, normally) strings with your 1st finger at the 1st fret, then barre the 3rd, 4th, and 5th strings at the 3rd fret with a flattened 3rd finger - or use your little finger: like an A chord shape moved up one fret. looks like he probably mutes the 6th string.or just doesn't barre it. hope this helps.
@Louquivole I can't even describe how crazy it's been, but there is hope. I saw her a couple months after posting and will see her again in a few weeks! :D
Lemuria was actually a scientific hypothesis from the 1840s - the Geologist who proposed it noted that there were Lemurs in Madagascar and India so he posited there was a sunken continent that connected them in a distant time. Then, after WWII, soñar and radar mapped the oceans and the theory of plate tectonics was proven by the planetary oceanic rifts. Some still hold to Lemuria as a real place but it was a fairly recent invention that is not supported by the actual scientific proof once ocean floors were mapped. Some say Atlantis was in what is now Saharan Africa - the climate was wet until well after the last ice age and was where Imperial Rome got its wheat until a few centuries after the Empire was formed North Africa became too arid to grow wheat.

I think this is my favorite Pixies song.
His explanation of the song has left it making less sense than before, however.
He met a chick who whos ethnic background ties her to limuria, but velouria means like hairy and he is referring to her as that because she was hairy
google Velour
whoa
the less the pixies musics make sense the better....
well it does make sense but you would have to be smart to get the references... that´s why it doesn´t make sense to you.
One of 14 reasons why Bossanova is as great as that which preceded it.
maan, everything about this band is just so magical
1000 times yes
i agree
You said this seven years ago and I’m still coming back to it at the wee hours all these years later. Magical is an understatement.
@@UbiDoobyBanooby He did say he had an encounter with a Lemurian.
Pixies music is like an entire universe of their own. Their music has an atmosphere to it that just transports you to a different place.
His explanation of this song made me love it more...didn't ever realize he was on board with the Lemuria thing.

Magnifique!!! Frank et sa bande ont enflammé l'olympia de Paris hier soir... C'était trop bien....
Ils ont joues Velouria?
I've been listening to this song for the past 5 years, and I never realized Kim Deal is singing "V-E-L-O-U...R-I-A" until I heard this version.
I didn't realize it until you mentioned it, and I've been listening to it for the past 14 years.
ive been listening to this song for 15 and I always thought vit was really love you bye bye babe . lol
I've been listening to it for 600 years
Indeed. I was unaware Deal was singing that.
Beautiful song, even more so with this acoustic version.
always thought she said eeeeeoooh ra ra re
I would never have thought that a simple acoustic version of this classic sing could come across this well, but he totally kills it. So beautiful.
Could watch him do solo acoustic stuff all day.
I love all the stories behind Frank's songs, they're so straight forward yet intriguing, like the songs themselves!

Yea, it's so annoying when artists do this to their own songs, but it's understandable to a degree
this is the greatest explanation of a song I've ever heard.
I''m amazed. Just found this version, listened to it 7 times straight. Genius.
God bless Chuck Thompsons possessed mind. This guy is a brilliant!! Pixies music will stay with me forever.
Genius. Pure.
Ah there he is - my god man! Perfection. xx
why does this make me want to cry? I love it.
The somberness of wisdom is relentless
so well said
Effeminate weekness?
Because it's so beautiful 🎼❤️ me too
@@franklinbumgartener1323 Binaural beats, propaganda, mind control, at the end of the... weekness. Learn to spell before you say who's weak.
hes such an underrated rhythm guitarist

"underrated" is the most overused word in music videos comments.
He's kinda ok
@@darkjesy7736 can you write songs as simple and as great as him?
Amazing. Never thought this one could be buskered, but he makes it beautiful and complete
Frank Black always reminds me of an Anglo-Saxon Buddha; so wise and mystical! :)
This is the man. Ive always loved pixies. Frank Black was the pixies. I miss them.
I love this song so mich
Hold my head, we'll trampoline
Finally through the roof onto somewhere near and far in time
Velouria, her covering, traveling career
She can really move, oh, Velveteen
My Velouria, my Velouria
Even I'll adore you, my Velouria
Even I'll adore you, my Velouria
Say to me, where have you been?
Finally through the roof
And how does lemur skin reflect the sea?
We will wade in the shine of the ever
We will wade in the shine of the ever
We will wade in the tides of the summer, every summer
Every my Velouria, my Velouria
Forevergreen, I know she's here in California
I can see the tears of Shastasheen

Shastasheen?

@@-barth-1889 ty interesting, I like the myth
Simply.......Beautiful, I named my motorbike Velouria...it's my favourite song to sing out loud whilst riding about :)
I'm so shamed at the vastnessvof my ignorance that I didn't even pick up a hint of what the true meaning was behind this sublimely beautiful song.
I keep coming back to this video. Wish there was more acoustic Pixie classics...
Sublime composition, he's doing a very nice version rendition here, long live Pixies!
He is so out of his damn mind...
I am in awe! Such genius.
thank you for posting this. i wish he could have told the story uninterrupted. i never knew what this song was about before this. it makes me love the song all over again.
He’s an occult freak and I love it.
Haunting -- thanks for capturing this beautiful performance!
This song is incredible amazing ,so pure & so simple at the same time ,one of my favorites song ever... Charles you´re a gifted musician !!
This song, Velouria, is one of my favorites! Absolutely!
And this acoustic version is amazing
Yes, this is really my favourite Pixies song, a pleasure to listen to. Thanks for sharing. Cheers, M
This song puts a lump in my throat. Don't know why.
So LOVE THIS SONG THIS IS MY FAVORITE PIXIES SONG 💕💕💕💕. Sounds so good after all years tears
This was great !!! Thanks for posting it.. Thanks for doing it MR. F
I still just can't believe how many good songs this guy has written. Not just with Pixies, but the Frank Black solo albums are ridiculous as well. Get Teenager of the Year if you don't have it already!
I can hear the accompaniment of the singing saw , or whatever the keyboard sound is ..awesome beautiful song this is
Pretty sure it's joey using a weird pedal on his guitar on something, does use that sound a lot on bossanova
There are none..more...
cool, calm, collected
such as this ..
Just beautiful, haunting.
Total class - a real artist.
Awesome story background, always loved this song first heard on kukq phoenix when it was still newly played on underground radio
My favorite Pixies song by far. Love the Weezer cover as well.
I had a summer romance end today with the girl moving away. There was nothing I could do but loop this song...

Did you ever see her again?
@@nathanb5579 Yes. I wish it were a happier story over a decade later, but unfortunately it's not.

already got it in the guitar ! i'm ready to play it for my beatifull friends by the river at night !!
holy shit batman,
frank black singing in falsetto... awesome!!!
like nectar dripping from the heavens...
Fantastic song.
My otherworldly love always wears a dress made of velour. That's why this song reminds me of her. ❤
One of the single best live performances ever?
Legend!!!!
Brilliant 😊
This is an amazing song I think it sounds great on acoustic.. I wish I could write songs like this guy
Wonderful performance.
Fucking Awesome... no other words for it. You gotta love the Lemuria speech also. Classic Charles.
legend
Legend
I want to grow up to be a debaser just like you I love you buddy
Classic. Just classic.
a lot of Frank's songs have a haunting feel to them. This is a great version!
Frank Black is a class act all the way! Mary Lucia had an awesome interview with him. Love The Current
Saw the pixes in dublin 1991 it was brilliant
magical songwriter
I agree, but acoustic version or not, Velouria still sounds 10x cooler with Kim's feather-like wispy vocals interlaced throughout the whole song.
Your opinion.
Until I heard this i liked the pixies a LOT
NOW HOW CAN I say 10,000 time more
Just wow and thank you going threw a rough scrape right now.......
wow.... WWWOOOWWW... so simple... SOOO POWERFUL
temaso!!...
This version of the song is insane..its like mind control.
@ForgottenMusicSongs thank you :)
I love it when bands explain how they wrote their songs. That was a weird one for sure but... cool.
It was such a shock (in a good way) when he did that - just kind of chatted and .... "anyway, here's Velouria!"
This is songwriting.
Genius.
Wow! Madagascar used to be called "Veloria"? This story should be in the liner notes. So freakin' awesome. You Rock Black Francis!
You clearly didn't listen
fooking super!!!
Charles' voice sounds DAMNED GOOD in this clip. I know that he's everyone's cup of tea but he does have an exceptional voice!
That's how angels sounds....
Weezer's version of this is quite nice. I normally dislike Pixies covers but that one is gooder than usuals.
StephenAndrew777 weird time signature on theirs, but still good. I just keep wanting it to pick up on the drums.
I can't imaginé how good this song could sounds with Kim doing the background voice....
En Internet hay muchos momentos épicos considero que este es uno de ellos. 😎
Dope song Frank. The cracks don't know better.
Genius
God he rambles when he talks,but Christ when he sings...just one of the best ever.
I could listen to him "ramble" all day.
he doesnt ramble. when he explains his songs he doesn't want to confuse people with his strange musings. So he hesitates to explain something because he knows they won't understand. I hear him do this often.

"Going somewhere with this," indeed.
Lemuria was actually a scientific hypothesis from the 1840s - the Geologist who proposed it noted that there were Lemurs in Madagascar and India so he posited there was a sunken continent that connected them in a distant time.

i wanna go meet the mountain people!! heheh great job!
Why did she laugh? Perfectly reasonable explanation he gave I thought
His lyrics will appear in poetry anthologies someday.
Frank loves the cool, refreshing taste of Hansen's soda. It feels cool and crisp on his tongue! :)
