    It's 2021 and I'm sitting in my room and crying. The beauty of this performance is overwhelming. I'm lost for words. I've seen this footage ages ago but somehow it appeared again on my recommended videos and I'm very grateful.

    This lyrics, hands down, must be among the best ever written. And, yes, Davids guitar shoes might be a a couple of numb(ers) to big for most guitar players..
    "You are only coming through in waves.
    Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying."
    It's hard to top those lines..

      As a big Pink Floyd fan since the mid 80s, I first heard this back in the early 90s and this has always been my favourite cover of a Floyd song. One day I listened to a live Pink Floyd "The Wall" bootleg, and Richard Wright played a piano / keyboard melody during the guitar solo of Comfortably numb - that was almost the same as Some Kind of Stranger (which was always one of my favouritse Sisters songs). That makes this version all the more awesome. To me, Andrew Eldritche really resonated with this song, and amplified the emotion during the performances. It's awesome!

    Some kind of Stranger is a bit his Moonage Daydream :-) I've been a fan since 1984 but didn't think their live performances were at the stratospheric level of those 2 sublime albums. On the other hand, what is there still to say about music in a world wherein Taylor Swift is breaking all records???

    Needs more German people speaking! And more out of tune singing by Andrew! Otherwise it's perfect. ;-) In all honesty, I like it a lot, which is why I came to watch it, but he does have trouble staying in tune, which is mildly amusing. Too bad they never did a studio version.
