This song is one of the best ever recorded . The reason I say this . Because its one of those incredibly special songs that gives you a certain feeling when you hear it that you only feel from hearing it .
This is one of those songs that you just can't believe is possible to be made by humans, it's not about the rhythm, not about melody or voice, it's about like the whole freakin song is soundtrack of your waking and dream life.
I'm sorry for that bro, Because they are not appreciated the importance of doing this kind of good songs in the 80s good band!? But this is really timeless...
I don't care where I am when this comes on, it instantly transports me to the late 80's..It literally has a hypnotic effect, and I like it.....and the 80's :)
I discovered this when it first came out. Got the album. I’m 82 and still watch it on u tube, along with with, Jonny lang LIE TO ME and of course, Steve winwood. CANT FIND MY WAY HOME!!! Bless ‘em all.
Holy shit this is live!!! LMFAO this blows away anything in the last 10 years of music of any live crap that people even attempted to play.Christ man awesome sound.
One of the most amazing, timeless, brilliant pieces of music ever...By one of the best bands around the globe. This sonic tapestry always sounds fresh, with rich layers...No matter how Steve sings it, no matter how Peter plays the solo, how the band weaves the magic in its mysterious, Shimmering, mesmerizing, empathy inducing quality... It somehow captures you each time. ...Leaves you waiting for more, always.
This song makes me float on air. Just the sound of it causes memories to come flooding back. Dancing, drinking beer, laying on a blanket under the milky way and wondering what you you were looking for.
I rediscovered this tune a year or so ago. Its one of those songs you hear on the radio and if you didn't catch the band name, you were just screwed. The airwaves were dominated by record companies back then. Certain songs got played over and over, to boost sales. Other songs however, shared a different fate. I can't explain how this song makes me feel. It draws out a lovely sense of melancholy. My, how some of us are drawn to nostalgia later in life. Its like a scent from the air that you catch with your nose and then it fades. You try to draw air back in your nose to smell it again, but no. Something primeval from your adolescent. You experience it once, and then chase that sensation. Its like a person you loved, a friend, and then you see them again after a long time. Like that first kiss, or that magnificent buzz from your first love. You crave it again and again. That's how this song makes me feel. Its beautiful. An air of mystery every time those vibrations invade my ears. I shall love this song, always. Disclaimer, this is not an Ai response. This is me buzzed on Whiskey, loving this tune all over again. I could ramble all night. But I won't.
I was working late night FM radio in the late 80s when this song came out. Every time it came up in rotation, I had to just stop and listen. Still feels that way.
joe22589 The Church has to date 25 studio albums with an incredibly wide range of songs from the bizarre, chaotic and psychedelic beauty of Day Of The Dead; Chromium; Vanishing Man; Anesthesia; Lunar and Trance Ending, just to name a small handful, to the melodic beauty of Two Places At Once; After Everything, Now This and straight up great rockers like Space Saviour and their new wave, jangly early stuff. Again 25 albums and I just mentioned a handful of songs. They have consistently put out great music for over 40 years and still going.
Oh when this record came out.... blown away! Got to see them live at a small gig at the University of Chicago. Band left stage with a guitar feeding back center stage. Epic night
To me this song is about sending your troubles away and let them fade and staring out into space into those beautiful stars ⭐️ The feeling of letting go never felt so good in my life. Such a magical song. The Church rocks. 😎👌
I've loved this song since I first heard it❤ still a favourite. I have to play it every time I have a 'music day' thank you. It's always seemed to meet a real Aussie song. I'm a proud Aussie. 😎😀🌏🪐🌕🙏🐦🇦🇺🌟🦜🦋👣🏡🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I didn't even missed the bagpipes in 2:24 The Church brings back the best memories of college days. Peter Murphy, The Mission UK, Icehouse, only the best...
@@bimma320 thanks for that, it's a very realistic bagpipe sound on the recording but nice to know it's a synth so I don't hurt myself trying to cop the exact sound lol
viewoftheaskew it was done the same way they show you here with an eBow; that little box thing he tosses away (lol) after the solo which makes the strings vibrate. The album added further processing
I was late on the "Church scene" and came in during Starfish. It was a brilliant piece of work and I couldn't get enough of Kilbey's voice paired with the amazing, ethereal guitar work and precision percussion. Starfish always has a special place in my heart and is a timeless work. This Sydney concert was phenomenal proving that the boys still have their craft under fine control after all these years. If only but in a dream to have been there...
Goosebumps when drums and bass kick in. Beautiful memories ... Timeless brilliance.... THIS is what should be winning Grammys Simply stunning music ecstasy. this band should be as big as U2, they are that damn good.
Still.. To this day... A perfect song.. Thank You! Steve, You are a voice that still brings me joy! Thank You for writing a song that images what I see when I look up into the night sky!
A real favorite, been playing this for 3 decades on my 6 string Takamine and love it just as much now a 30 years ago. And I just got a 12 string, found in an antique shop; playing on capo 5 as done in this video on my new/old 1970s Penco 12 string sounds awesome! Love this tune,
🎶 Enveloped in Celestial Melodies: The Church's "Under The Milky Way" Live in Sydney 🎶 In the heart of Sydney, a musical journey into the cosmos unfolded as The Church delivered an enchanting live rendition of "Under The Milky Way." This iconic performance, captured by Moshcam, is a testament to the enduring allure of the song and the band's ability to transport audiences to a realm of ethereal beauty.From the first resonant chord, the audience is transported to a dreamscape that seems to exist beyond the confines of time and space. The haunting intro sets the stage for a sonic exploration that mirrors the song's title-a journey under the cosmic canopy. As the vocals begin, Steve Kilbey's voice weaves a delicate tapestry of emotion, infusing every lyric with a sense of introspection and mystery.The live setting adds a layer of intimacy to the performance, as the connection between the band and the audience becomes palpable. The atmospheric melodies intertwine seamlessly with the backdrop of the Sydney scene, creating an immersive experience that captures both the essence of the song and the energy of the live performance. "Under The Milky Way" is a song that seems to transcend genres and eras, existing in a space of timelessness. In this live rendition, The Church captures the song's essence while adding new dimensions through their on-stage chemistry and improvisational touches. The instrumental arrangements ebb and flow like the tides of the ocean, creating an atmosphere that is at once serene and emotionally charged. As the song reaches its crescendo, the audience is left hanging in the balance between the earthbound and the celestial. The interplay between guitars, bass, and drums creates a symphonic climax that is nothing short of breathtaking. The combination of sound and visuals becomes an experience that is both immersive and cathartic, leaving an indelible mark on the souls of those fortunate enough to witness it. "Under The Milky Way" Live in Sydney is not just a performance-it's a cosmic voyage, an exploration of emotions, and a testament to the power of music to connect us to something larger than ourselves.

In a world where moments of musical transcendence are rare, this performance stands as a beacon of inspiration-a reminder that through the universal language of music, we can journey to the farthest reaches of our imagination, guided by the celestial melodies of The Church. 🎵🌌
This song defies belief, transcending the boundaries of human creation. It's not merely about rhythm, melody, or voice; it encapsulates an entire symphony, as if the entire composition is the soundtrack to your waking and dream life.
Sometimes, when this place gets kind of empty Sound of their breath fades with the light I think about the loveless fascination Under the Milky Way tonight Lower the curtain down on Memphis Lower the curtain down, all right I got no time for private consultation Under the Milky Way tonight [Chorus] Wish I knew what you were looking for Might have known what you would find [Verse 2] And it's something quite peculiar Something shimmering and white It leads you here, despite your destination Under the Milky Way tonight [Chorus] Wish I knew what you were looking for Might have known what you would find Wish I knew what you were looking for Might have known what you would find [Verse 2] And it's something quite peculiar Something shimmering and white Leads you here, despite your destination Under the Milky Way tonight [Chorus] Wish I knew what you were looking for Might have known what you would find Wish I knew what you were looking for Might have known what you would find [Outro] Under the Milky Way tonight Under the Milky Way tonight Under the Milky Way tonight

As a songwriter I find this an incredible HAUNTING NUMBER... I HAVE JUST TONIGHT- listened to it 25 times. I shut off my phone and HAD TO turn it on ONE MORE TIME Just to hear it before I went to bed... SHEEEEEEEIT my brothers and sisters WTF!!! BLOODY BRILLIANT AND HAUNTING...

That was brilliant using the lead solo guitar at the ending of the song. Instead of the usual lead solo 2 thirds into any song out there. Brilliant work and song.

Bro’s voice sounds just as good as when the song first came out. Amazing

Totally in agreement.
:)
Verdad, fantastica cancion.
An ethereal, aural masterpiece...
Calm down pal
@@TeresaBockwoldt meow, meow!
Está canción me recuerda los 80' 😢
Such a haunting and ethereal song, with a special vibration that gets deep into the soul.
A timeless classic of the 80’s.
One of my favorite songs of the 80s or any other decade.Haunting,moody and just plain beautiful.
Absolutely....I just can't figure out how I never heard it before two weeks ago? lol
Hi@scarlet.rememder me Jim Rufert
Probably the best song in the world.

Weird fishes is, but this is good too.
You ain’t wrong
I guess so.
Yes it is
Whoever mixed the music that night was in top form just like the band, perfection.
Timeless brilliance.... THIS is what should be winning Grammys
Grammys can go to Hell
Not the crap that is served up today.
This should have millions and millions of views. They are still pure magic.
I AGREE
Like fine wine and vintage sportscars
I'm sorry for that bro,
Because they are not appreciated the importance of doing this kind of good songs in the 80s good band!?
But this is really timeless...
Absolutely beautiful song
A song for the universe, for the stars and for something deeply hidden within you and me.
Yeah, it's difficult to explain.
Oh f that is a nice comment
Always wonder how many planetarium shows around the world have used this song since 1988.
well said.
.....................................................................well said
I don't care where I am when this comes on, it instantly transports me to the late 80's..It literally has a hypnotic effect, and I like it.....and the 80's :)

I discovered this when it first came out. Got the album. I’m 82 and still watch it on u tube, along with with, Jonny lang LIE TO ME and of course, Steve winwood. CANT FIND MY WAY HOME!!! Bless ‘em all.
Still find it haunting. Linda 84
When I sit down with my acoustic guitar this has been my go to song my entire adult life!!!🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻

This song will set you in a calm state of mind, What a great song.
For my money still one of the most addictively beautiful songs I've ever heard...damn but it's held up well! A timeless masterpiece!
This never gets old to this 52 year old girl,love it💜💙
This song makes me float on air. Just the sound of it causes memories to come flooding back. Dancing, drinking beer, laying on a blanket under the milky way and wondering what you you were looking for.
LOVE this song. Timeless.
There are just some songs ... that are just ... unbelievably good. This is one.
You have that so right. Can’t find my way home always does it for me too. Linda84
I rediscovered this tune a year or so ago. Its one of those songs you hear on the radio and if you didn't catch the band name, you were just screwed.
The airwaves were dominated by record companies back then. Certain songs got played over and over, to boost sales.

I can't explain how this song makes me feel. It draws out a lovely sense of melancholy.
My, how some of us are drawn to nostalgia later in life.
Its like a scent from the air that you catch with your nose and then it fades.
You try to draw air back in your nose to smell it again, but no.
Something primeval from your adolescent.
You experience it once, and then chase that sensation.
Its like a person you loved, a friend, and then you see them again after a long time.
Like that first kiss, or that magnificent buzz from your first love.
You crave it again and again.
That's how this song makes me feel. Its beautiful.
An air of mystery every time those vibrations invade my ears.
I shall love this song, always.
Disclaimer, this is not an Ai response. This is me buzzed on Whiskey, loving this tune all over again.
I could ramble all night. But I won't.
Imagine having this live version on Spotify I would play it again and again and again and again !!
Goosebumps when drums and bass kick in. Beautiful memories ...
Incredible voice!
I was working late night FM radio in the late 80s when this song came out. Every time it came up in rotation, I had to just stop and listen. Still feels that way.
The chords of this song are wonderfull
I’m forever locked in mentally to this masterpiece of the Australia I once loved and now long for. 😢
A haunting tune played in the key that I really like to hear.
1/1/24 stands the test of time, always brings me back to a special time and place, the 80’s-90’s
Awesome song, sounds like something you'd hear in Space Dandy 🌌.
music ecstasy. this band should be as big as U2, they are that damn good.
One epic song is not enough. U2 had dozens of epic world class songs. This one is great, for sure.
@@joe22589 The Church has multiple epic songs, too. Educate yourself. The Church has more than 20 studio albums, and every one of them is great.
Just one example... ruclips.net/video/96YYp98ye9o/видео.html
I would say better imo.

Sounded even more heavenly whenever I was high- back in the day.
Thanks for checking out our videos :)
This song is like being on the edge of a dream and conscious,just drifting back and forth.definitely stirs the inner soul of a person.❤❤❤
I have always loved this song. It just sends my mind into space.
And was appropriate for that Donnie Darko scene.
Send u into the milky way takes u off this doomed earth
To me this song is about sending your troubles away and let them fade and staring out into space into those beautiful stars ⭐️
The feeling of letting go never felt so good in my life. Such a magical song. The Church rocks. 😎👌
Beautiful poetry. Beautiful melody. I remember anguish. Glory, honor, peace. I still love this song.
I've loved this song since I first heard it❤ still a favourite. I have to play it every time I have a 'music day' thank you. It's always seemed to meet a real Aussie song. I'm a proud Aussie. 😎😀🌏🪐🌕🙏🐦🇦🇺🌟🦜🦋👣🏡🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

It's actually an ebow
Gday mate, when recording Starfish, there were no bagpipes. It was an eBow on an electric guitar run through a synth rig.
@@bimma320 thanks for that, it's a very realistic bagpipe sound on the recording but nice to know it's a synth so I don't hurt myself trying to cop the exact sound lol

Jim Snyder Poseur! (Just kiddin’, same here 😊)

Invierno de 1988, una de las mejores canciones que escuché

Speechless. I love singing this song all the time...…..
Me too.
This song defies belief, transcending the boundaries of human creation. It's not merely about rhythm, melody, or voice; it encapsulates an entire symphony, as if the entire composition is the soundtrack to your waking and dream life.
Sometimes, when this place gets kind of empty
Sound of their breath fades with the light
I think about the loveless fascination
Under the Milky Way tonight
Lower the curtain down on Memphis
Lower the curtain down, all right
I got no time for private consultation
Under the Milky Way tonight
[Chorus]
Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find
[Verse 2]
And it's something quite peculiar
Something shimmering and white
It leads you here, despite your destination
Under the Milky Way tonight
[Chorus]
Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find
Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find
[Verse 2]
And it's something quite peculiar
Something shimmering and white
Leads you here, despite your destination
Under the Milky Way tonight
[Chorus]
Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find
Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find
[Outro]
Under the Milky Way tonight
Under the Milky Way tonight
Under the Milky Way tonight
Meravigliosa versione❤❤❤
What an awesome track! !
Such a classic tune here.Reminds me of prom night...fun times
Timeless brilliance.... THIS is what should be winning Grammys
A song for the universe, for the stars and for something deeply hidden within you and me.
Goosebumps when drums and bass kick in. Beautiful memories ...
Love this song so many years.
As a songwriter I find this an incredible HAUNTING NUMBER...
I HAVE JUST TONIGHT- listened to it 25 times. I shut off my phone and HAD TO turn it on ONE MORE TIME Just to hear it before I went to bed...
SHEEEEEEEIT my brothers and sisters WTF!!!
BLOODY BRILLIANT AND HAUNTING...
"THE CHURCH" SHOULD HAVE BEEN REVERED! ( & They are- JUST not enough!!! IMHO )

I love this song, memories from my high school days!
Uno de los mas grandes grupos Australianos!!
Very beautiful live performance of "Under The Milky Way!" I love this song! :-)
That was brilliant using the lead solo guitar at the ending of the song. Instead of the usual lead solo 2 thirds into any song out there. Brilliant work and song.
Still sends chills down my spine.
Gosh, he's only looking a little bit older. The song never gets old at all.
Uma das mais belas músicas que já ouvi!!!👏👏👏👏👏
Exceleeeeeeeeeente cancion!!!👏👏👏🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪
