Wow. An outdoor Fall concert, can you imagine? I might have died from excitement. Mark sure carried it to the end! I once listened to ONLY the fall for 8 months straight. True story.
Don't know your mate Gary...but Gary must have been sound...he loved the Fall....so ever time you play his song... he's around ...even if you can't see him...Spirit lives on in a song ..
@Big Valerie It's not really about a rabbit! M.E.S said so himself...mind you, who was it who said; "the worst interpreter of an artist's work is the artist himself?" Probably Godard, I think it was an "auteur"-type director, anyhow. Anyway this song, and the album it's from, is incredible. So good I bought it twice
@Big Valerie My mate who got me into The Fall (and many other "canonical" underground bands besides!) has a huge and eclectic record collection...and owns every album Kasabian ever put out! Which, I'm not gonna lie, weirded me out a bit. Like, he loves hyper-obscure kosmiche musik (or "krautrock" if you wanna be culturally insensitive and jingoistic about it! Don't forget, it was BRITISH journos who coined that term...it's always seemed insensitive at best and borderline racist at worst to me, tbh) and he's into this shitty, "Oasis with a better record collection" band! Strange. I just bought the LUS reissue/remaster on Let Them Eat Vinyl, good record, there's a lot to digest, the 90's output is where my Fall collection is skimpiest...EDIT: sorry it doesn't become one to brag about one's record collection, I'm currently waiting for my copies of "Live At St.Helens 1981" to turn up!
@@brad8512 There's a British band called something like: "Cronenberg's Wife", something to do with David Cronenberg, and they're CLEARLY fans of The Fall! You can hear it especially on their single "Couldn't Get Off", I'll try and look it up for ya...David Cronenberg's Wife! Here y'are: ruclips.net/video/l37j24CV7W8/видео.html , hope you enjoy--that beat and guitar line is pure Perverted By Language-era Fall, dont'cha think?! Tape noise at the beginning and everything!
It's Scandinavia. So the crowds ancestors were Vikings. Murder all day party all night ( Like Valhalla) . Lots of disappointed Gramp's looking down. Viking Atrophy.
I never knew i how good this energy filled music made feel, late discovering them but better late than never, they are helping to kick me out of me my long term depression better than all the medicines good and great brilliant gifted people.
This is seriously one of my favorite tracks on my favorites. I keep listening to this over and over. This is better than the album and the Peel version.
2006-год? - Я тогда уже бросил быть звукорежиссером. Потому что не знал о Вас, ребята! Я не знал о такой Музыке, как "The Fall" ! Сейчас я смотрю Ваше выступление и ВИЖУ, что ВАС НЕ СЛЫШАТ!!!... Хотя, ЧТО МНЕ, 52-ЛЕТНЕМУ гению в звуке тут "бисер метать"... - Вы - лучшая группа!!!
he's always grappling with the microphones. you'd think after 40 years he would've mastered them. i guess its just part of the charm. the Fall forever!
All consuming, play loud and move slowly - and think with a big mind -Oh Yeah! Audible transcendence of an outstanding nature - The Fall, are magnificent, in all their incarnations!
Every band, even famous ones, sooner or later has to play in front of a crowd who don't know them, in the daylight... They gave a good performance anyhow... Wish I was there!!!
The Fall have always sounded like a second rate university throw together to me I'm afraid - evidenced by this video. If I saw this back in the day at Sheffield Hallam I'd not be greatly impressed, I have to say. Why the Fall are so revered I'll never know, though I'm trying to like them more. Some of it is bound to be the John Peel effect, with Peel devotees claiming to love anything he liked a lot. Each to their own...
Atmosphere and presence because it comes from element of truth In lyrics and music.This is the hypnotic power of Fall. Watch out for Dr Faustis in Bend Sinister.In the 80s I was unprepared for this song.Did not know who Faustis was but gave me Sinister dreams..Some form of collective “hard core” ha
@staygee1 Well, I do. For me, they are one of the most talanted and meaningful bands of the ceintury. They are sarcatsic and absurd (as life is), that is why they will never be applauded. The more the public is confused and annoyed, the better the music is.
I don't know why so many commenters have complained about the audience. Quite a few of them seem to be grooving to the band. As for the rest, perhaps this is the first time they've heard the Fall. Now they can say that they were there, "And the singer was a feisty old fellow, wasn't he."
wish i coulda seen the dudes live! But did see Pressley slinging last year filling in for Greenway which was awesome! Wish Darker My Love would tour GB too!!
There has to be at least one kid in this crowd who is watching this who will later look on this as the moment when his musical tastes suddenly changed. How I envy that kid!
Fair comment, can see a lot of what you're saying is spot on. Just can't imagine anyone turning up to a gig where these guys take the stage and going sway thinking "let's sound like that" but I suppose if everyone liked the same thing it'd be a boring world.

I’m basically heading in a similar direction - any advice ?
I saw him play Glastonbury in 2015 outdoor, park stage, it was awesome
So you should!😅
@@leebp9106 Keep going.
So you should.😆
A guy I worked with at Royal mail called Gary, he really loved this.
He sadly died.....so every time I play this, this is for you Gary.
RIP Gary
Don't know your mate Gary...but Gary must have been sound...he loved the Fall....so ever time you play his song... he's around ...even if you can't see him...Spirit lives on in a song ..
The fine line between genius and insanity. No one straddled the fence better than Mark E Smith and the fall.
Well said..
Despite my age (76) I'm a newcomer to The Fall. Great band. Reminds me in some ways of early Velvets. Shame about the crowd but you can't win 'em all.
Rockin Atheist great
They "were" timeless in all their various carnations; maybe one day they will be treated with the reverance they deserve.
Rockin Atheist That's great mate. kind regards
Welcome to the wierd and wonderful World of The Fall, brother !
Because they're festival goers. Not Fall fans.
How can a band be so ridiculously cool, effortless and definitive. Rest In Peace Mark E Smith.
Mark E Smith singing a song about Harold Shipman to a bemused Norweigian festival crowd is pretty wonderful if you ask me.
The British people the song is aimed at are just as bemused. Which, I suspect, may be the very point the video is making.
Hahaha pure Mark XD
The song was great when played live in Manchester! I'm sure the audience understood and joined in the what about us refrain

this is bloody amazing ..thanks for putting this on you tube.
everyone should listen to THE FALL at least once a day.
peace
🙏🙏🌻🌻😻😻😽😽💕💕
The wonder of youtube is that I can still see Mark. Not just play my vinyl but see him.
Same dude. Elona looks dead fit, too
👀💞
Good point
Freeking story of The Fall right there.... Best band in the world and no one takes any notice of them!
We do🥴💞
Listen to Country Teasers
Dave Anchovies thanks for country teasers suggestion. Good stuff

Rarely seen brilliance met with such absolute indifference
Yeah, why aren't the crowd into it? I'd give me right bollock to have seen The Fall live. Elona is dead fit, too
They're not indifferent, they're Scandinavian (these things can be easily confused)
theyre scandinavian
@@tracyhoward8228 too much tension for them, they prefer norwegian folk (from norwegian wood of course). A Xanax people, anyway.
@@Sr19769pThey're still knackered from conquering half the world.
One of the best Fall grooves ever. Wow.
I never knew i how good this energy filled music made feel, late discovering them but better late than never, they are helping to kick me out of me my long term depression better than all the medicines good and great brilliant gifted people.
when you need to look the universe in the eye and say aye wot you wankaaahhh,The Fall is there for you...
The Fall are a bucket list band you can’t miss, enjoy
my sentiments exactly ! it just doesn't get any better than this
Love that throaty bass sound!
Little kid @3:00 - "Get me out of here NOW".
Same kid 20 years from now - "I saw the Fall live once. It was incredible. They were truly legendary."
I just did a spit-take.
So true!
Absolutely fantastic.
Awww this is hilarious! Love The Fall so much. The reaction is mentally good. Proper good music.
The fall left a statement behind, this is an example of music that stuns the audience. It takes guts, well done.
one of the greatest! Rest in peace, Mark E. Smith...you will be missed.
This the fall footage on you tube i just keep coming back to every time, Awesome line up. Awesome performance. Great footage.
This is seriously one of my favorite tracks on my favorites. I keep listening to this over and over. This is better than the album and the Peel version.
Can't find this on lp? Did this set ever make it to record? Thanks 2024

Хотя, ЧТО МНЕ, 52-ЛЕТНЕМУ гению в звуке тут "бисер метать"...
- Вы - лучшая группа!!!
The greatest band ever!!!
Something magical about this song- especially live. Love it.
A man way ahead of his time. What a mind. RIP.
'GENIUS' shouted loudly and proudly. x
he's always grappling with the microphones. you'd think after 40 years he would've mastered them. i guess its just part of the charm. the Fall forever!
👏👏👏🤣
New Year, another new year as a fan of the mighty fall
Give us strength
This is the dogs bollocks, I hope that crowd realises they were standing in front of greatness RIP Mark E. Smith
Looks they all are fall fans and realize who they are watching. They are locked in on the greatness. And the hypnotic riff.
The dogs bollocks perfectly describes this lmfao
Elena is stunning! Wow!
He was a lucky man.......
Every time I saw them I stood beside Elena
she has everything....
Elena; still a gorgeous minx
Been watching The Fall since 1984 Hacienda. Last performance at Glastonbury 2015 too.
Best lyrics ever 😂
Irony in true Manc style.
MES: RIP:
Love it...RIP Smith

Amazing group,song,girl,everything...
The bloke playing guitar may be the coolest man ever .
That’s Tim Presley, and Rob Barbato on bass. One of my fave Fall lineups.
Mark Smith is on great form here as is group. Good post, super set.
two mics!!!! utmost class, mark.
The greatest band that ever was!! Pure ROCKA ROLLA.
TO KOOL 4 U.🎃

Great stuff
The Fall are great and sounding crisp and gnarly as ever
Thanks for posting
Seen this many times, but fuck me isn't it amazing?
The last great Fall lineup.A mighty version of this tune.
What a great performance.
What a guy. So amazing. A hero
A SAD DAY 24.01.18 RIP GENIUS. Saw him at Manchester Cathedral just before he passed away
💞🙌🏻💞
Atmosphere and presence because it comes from element of truth
In lyrics and music.This is the hypnotic power of Fall.
Watch out for Dr Faustis in Bend Sinister.In the 80s I was unprepared for this song.Did not know who Faustis was but gave me Sinister dreams..Some form of collective “hard core” ha
The song is almost 8 minutes long but it doesn't feel like it. Love it.
+Biggles Wurth yeah I know what you mean although I would say at 8 minutes it's at least 5 minutes too long
Great song,great lyrics.
That bass is amazing. Long live MES!
This is amazing

Still The Best Group On The Planet
I need this. Nice and loud.
This line up of The Fall are fantastic.
The best line-up for me, and that's saying something. I got into 'em during the Scanlon/Woolstencroft years, bloody great music
...makes me sorta happy🎶🥴🍻
Magnífico, maravilloso, genial!!
The Fall are on form here. And Elena looks delightful.
Rockin good groove..is this the Fall you remember? Mark E Smith knocks out the competition...
Splendid !
Outstanding.👊🏻
The best of the latter Fall line ups !
One day, in the future, the lad at 03:00 will realise that his dad brought him to experience Mark E Smith-ah to show how much he loves him-ah!
Mohawk dude with the earplugs cracks me up!
I think that's a girl m8. Either way she/he is a fucking badass!
Forward planning. Avoid Screaming Tinnitus later on.
I have forgotten what silence is
Damn cool catchy song! So good! Thank you for posting this!
I don't know why so many commenters have complained about the audience. Quite a few of them seem to be grooving to the band. As for the rest, perhaps this is the first time they've heard the Fall. Now they can say that they were there, "And the singer was a feisty old fellow, wasn't he."
I hope that young lad at 3:00 realises one day what a legend he saw at that gig !
Yeah, you comments steeler, you )
@@shaxan nothing original under the sun, except for M.E.Smith💞🥴💞
The whole band reeks of coolness
That's the Manchester Californians for you ✌️
That's awesome ! To bad I found this group too late to see them live .
The fall...................Top band. Changes in lineup but he's still got it!
10 years on this does the blinking trick
FRKN AWESOME !
Brilliant track and M E Smith hits the nail again ..Mindful that it was 11 years ago though .. :-)
I can't imagine a group less likely to enjoy playing outdoors in the afternoon.
ClueSign Seen At Wickerman after noon Amazing X
@@scottfraser7118 Saw them at Waterpop in the afternoon. Fantastic!
Oh to see the whole set,
dual microphones for the win
wish i coulda seen the dudes live! But did see Pressley slinging last year filling in for Greenway which was awesome! Wish Darker My Love would tour GB too!!
This has to be the most under-attended festival I have ever seen.
Mark, a legend.
DAS MELHORES BANDAS Q CONHEÇO E TENHO 45 ANOS E VOU CONTINUAR OUVIR.
R.I.P. Mark E Smith....aged 60 😣
thats why i'm here.
I outlived MES, I thought my intake of alcohol would croak me long before him. I was wrong
@@malcolmcog hey . Im wth you malcolm. Keep on keeping on .
Those last 15 years were pure grace, all throughout the whole mid 90s he looked like he had about a fortnight left to live!
RIP Hip Priest 🥴💞
a Revelation I now get the Fall
genius
theres nothing boring about this...best band ever...
Meu amigo ,,,,vai deixar saudades
Love it, Utter class!!!!!!
Marvellous sound. And the synthesizer lady is beautiful.
She looks a dish.
And the Stylophone has been around. She don't need 6 keyboards. Love Sista Bliss but the Fall aren't Faithless. Nope.
Seen them 4 times and they never played this.
Best track ever.!!!!!!!
She was Mark E Smiths wife
There has to be at least one kid in this crowd who is watching this who will later look on this as the moment when his musical tastes suddenly changed. How I envy that kid!
Es la mejor y la mejor versión.
Pop rock inglés lo mejor de lo mejor
👑👑💕💕😽😽😻😻👌👌🌻🌻🙏🙏 A GENIUS A MASTERPIECE !!!
RIP the man, M E Smith. We'll never forget you .
Green socks never
@ xyloplax, indeed. I love this track. Wolf Kidult Man is edgin up there too - especial kvman2007's live Basement performance
This is a song!💝
Good recent line up of The Fall this. White Fence's Tim Presley on Guitar.
This is perfect
Hey you at the back, pay attention as this is the best band you will ever see live
Malcolm Coghill Too right! Even when they had a bad night, they were better than most.
They got that raw Manc street sound,the Roses had it,and Joy Division love it,rip Mark E Smith.
Reminds me of Lou Reed circa 1970. Good stuff.
The guitarist and bassist are now in Darker My Love, who are fantastic.
Darker my love
