Legendary video. Watched it then and fell in love with the band (ripped the video and had this on mp3 on repeat for weeks). Look where they are now ! \o/ Who sometimes comes back to rewatch this ? :)
very few "electronica" bands catch my attention. ... these guys nailed it. done like it should be! and Lauren's vocals really top it off.....angelic and mesmerizing!
This is the first synth pop band I have ever actually enjoyed the hell out of. Normally I’m a rock guy, but Lauren’s voice is one of a kind, her lyrics are special, the synths are fantastic, hell even Martin has a cool voice too. Also, Lauren is a drummer, and used to be a drummer for a rock band 😎 She’s so talented
They're running samples through Ableton Live on a Macbook connected to a digital interface, the most affordable setup for electronic music. Nowadays they play with real vintage synthesizers. But I what find interesting is that anyone can make music with a cheap interface and a few samples downloaded from the internet, but few people have the talent to make good music like these guys and a few other bands.
Just over a year later and this song is still great. Their live show has improved steadily. Lauren's gorgeous vocals and the lads' driving beats still kick ass.
Now 11 years ago. I went to see them directly as a result of watching this video 11 years ago. At a medium sized venue in Manchester, where they were the first of two support acts and maybe only around 300 people in the room at the time (I didn't even stay to watch the main act) - look at where they are now. Amazing!
I think its amazing.. !! I freaking love Chvrches! instructed not to dance., lol "people we're filming this, please dont do anything that would make it look like you enjoy the song" ... what a bunch of knobs.. great song!
In 2019, I'm loving this throwback of Chvrches. I'm happy for them and their success today, but I really miss this raw and honest version of them...Before the need put on a live spectacle for huge festival audiences, when they didn't need a live drummer who really doesn't add anything to their sound, just takes away from their core chemistry. Lauren cynical introduction here is priceless
Wonderful presence, emotional music and that certain something you can't describe but absolutely love. This music is timeless and classy. I'd like to see them play with Operator Please and Dragonette one day. This sound is just so sweet, it gracefully dances the gap between my childhood music and what I listen to now. Lauren has a beautiful vulnerable voice and an amazing style, I really enjoy the arms only exposed and high neck-line. This band shall go far, I hereby call it so!
She doesn't look nervous; she looks bored. Probably because the crowd is giving them no love just standing there. It's like playing in a practice space.
she's joking. she's referring to the fact that another artist from Glasgow called Kassidy covered the CHVRCHES song. you can listen to the cover on Kassidy's Facebook page. don't know if it's intentional or not, but I also think it's kinda funny to introduce a song called "Lies" with a total lie.
I've watched this loadsa times now and just love it. Awesome synth sound and Lauren's voice is amazing for this track. I could see it doing very well commercially as well. she seems real nervous though butt better get used to the spotlight. Chvrches are gonna be big
Don't feel bad, they were in Kansas a couple weeks ago (about an hour away from me), and I missed it because I couldn't get a ride. I'm still beating myself up for it. :C
Lies is by far their best track
Ooooh dunno....really??
In my opinion Recover, lies and night sky are the best ones
*****
Night Skies is amazing. For me it is Night Sky, The Mother We Share, and Strong Hand (bonus track on the extended album).
I cant get enough of "Now is not the time" and "Science/Visions"
And Muse cover this song...awesome
Her stage makeup is always awesome! Love this one!
ikr this one is so perfect reminds me of black swan or something, very damatic & cool
She's unbelievably beautiful. So cute and stunning!
This version is awesome. Instruments are extremly powerfull and if you add her voice..... this is a masterpiece.
Man, I was here! I can't believe this is 9 years old now, I really miss this era in the Scotland underground music scene, man.
How was it!?
Underground...? Must have been seismic. I'm still feeling the aftershock here Down-under.
Such an underrated song. The world deserves to hear it…True Believer…
Why the hell is the audience soooo dead ... i would have been feelin it to that great performance ... she sounds just like the record
+Nacoga87 This was Chvrches second ever gig. They were an unheard of band with only a few songs on the internet.
That's just what we are like in Scotland.
Amazing performance.
So beautiful girl.
The song is superb, reminds me the 80's techno.
@@noghd2560 holy crap this thing is old. and so am i :(
Legendary video. Watched it then and fell in love with the band (ripped the video and had this on mp3 on repeat for weeks). Look where they are now ! \o/
Who sometimes comes back to rewatch this ? :)
Same🥰🥺she's so lovely and this breakable shy voice mixed with the brutal drums and powerful Moog Synthies.. It has such a strength ❤️
"Lies," "Gun," and "The Mother We Share" are my favourite tracks.
Lungs is great too though... and You Caught the Light. Holy shit.
add "Recover"
YES! SAME AS ME! We Sink also my Number 1 though.
@@unloveableandre Facts
forgot about Gun..that was a great one.
very few "electronica" bands catch my attention. ... these guys nailed it. done like it should be! and Lauren's vocals really top it off.....angelic and mesmerizing!
+John Ramirez Totally agree. Really great fusion of childlike vocals but gritty, prodding synths. Reminds me a lot of Ladytron.
This is the first synth pop band I have ever actually enjoyed the hell out of. Normally I’m a rock guy, but Lauren’s voice is one of a kind, her lyrics are special, the synths are fantastic, hell even Martin has a cool voice too.
Also, Lauren is a drummer, and used to be a drummer for a rock band 😎 She’s so talented
Me too :)
@@duketranslucent3rd Couldn't agree more, you described this perfectly.
@@donbeck8835 Respect!
Lauren doesnt need toys or videogames, she is obsessed with dat mic cable >.
The most shy-ish performance and yet so full of confidence. Great performer. Great music. Amazing tune.
There hasn't been quite that many songs good as this one in the last 10-15 yrs
This song is already a classic in contemporary music.
They're running samples through Ableton Live on a Macbook connected to a digital interface, the most affordable setup for electronic music. Nowadays they play with real vintage synthesizers. But I what find interesting is that anyone can make music with a cheap interface and a few samples downloaded from the internet, but few people have the talent to make good music like these guys and a few other bands.
Well. Iain is playing a Roland Juno 106, Moog Voyager and Prophet 08. Not really just running samples ;)
Music no one will remember in 25 years.
Who’s still listening this in 2024?
Me
2025
Me ❤😍🥰🤩
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ich liebe euch
Das Publikum war echt mies......ihr wart toll😊
I just discovered this, it's actually brilliant.
Me too, actually like a few weeks back. I like the fact that they bring back the best of the eighties, but with Lauren. :)
If she picked up just another feet of cable she'd be automatically in the union.
Utterly stonking track. I'm very late to the party, but definitely enjoying what I've heard so far.
2021 CHVRCHES STILL AS AWESOME AS EVER! Lauren's vocals & that pulsating synth are just stunning... ▶️ it very Loud!! 🎧🎶
Hope they make it big. Oh wait..they did.
ive probably watched/listened to this 20+ times today alone... havent been this in love with a band's sound in quite awhile.
think i have broke the replay button damnnn!!
Just over a year later and this song is still great. Their live show has improved steadily. Lauren's gorgeous vocals and the lads' driving beats still kick ass.
DUDE IM FROM 2020, this song still GREAT)))))
GREAT SONG....I LOVE IT !!!
Apart from the fact that she looks like she's being held gunpoint to sing it's a really good performance. Love CHVRHCES and this song especially
So much talent in her tiny body. Plus the best drops on the planet! Finally good music is making an appearance in today's society. Thank the stars.

I love this track. Peeps in the crowd going wtf is this be kicking themselves now

TRUST ME BRO! If that was me in there i would be on a hype like the guy playing on the keyboard.
it's so cool the way it looks on the screens in the background ......it's incredible 📺📺📺
Love this song and this singer .
DAMN hjer voice sounds like damn good live !!!! Just heard them on alternative radio in Netherlands, and this is awesome !!!!!
This is a pretty stellar performance and people are just standing around. WTF?
Maybe they're just memerised...
I would be there with my closed eyes and flying to another dimention lol
That's Scotland culture dude, that's just how people appreciate music.
Like you wouldn't be hearing a band for the first time you stupid fuck
@@Wackaz this is you joking, right? I mean, what appreciation..?
Lo acabo de descubrir y me encanta!!!! Me parecen muy buenos en directo...
La voz, los gestos, el cambio de ritmo... me parecen de lo mejor!!!
My Fav version over a few. Great job guys.

ditto to all of this.
before they said they want their music to be a "safe space", ffs
This was the first track they ever released publicly
Wicked song! Lauren is hot as fuck! Great voice!
That bottle of water is as big as she is.. She’s absolutely perfect.
This fucking band is awesome i had never seen something like this in a long time
this is perfection
hi again. very looking forward to CH4
Very Few artist sound JUST AS GOOD LIVE as they do on their albulms BUT LAUREN SOUNDS Amazing On both
It's just brilliant ;o)
i love you lauren
Lavren* lol
Ten rytmus je prudce návykový! Skvělé!
Linda!

she said in an interview that a lot of the people who weren't dancing were critics coming to report on them.
I've seriously had this song on repeat for about an hour now.
She's beautiful with a good singing voice to boot.Great dance music!!!
sweet new sound. incredibly hot singer. hope they make it big.
She doesn't look nervous; she looks bored. Probably because the crowd is giving them no love just standing there. It's like playing in a practice space.
Lauren is amazing live!
I bet they have Depeche Mode & Siouxsie as their greatest bands influences. The Mother We Share and this, great songs.
Going to see them on Saturday can't wait!
Fantastic!

La CARITA de Lauren me encantó.

Eargasmic!Im getting quite excited!
Come to Argentina. here is the best crowd ever.♥
I so agree. And amazing presence and sound.
Don't feel bad, they were in Kansas a couple weeks ago (about an hour away from me), and I missed it because I couldn't get a ride. I'm still beating myself up for it. :C
danke "alter Punk" für die Daten schön das es solche
leute wie dich gibt
Shivers down the spine ✳️✳️
beautiful 😍❤️🎶
Fuck this is so good 👏🏻
Why is NO ONE MOVING? This song is bad ass. I'd be getting crazy.
I actually love Lies tourist remix the most....
Reminds me of depeche mode
MUCHISIMO....
they are pretty much inspired by depeche mode’s works
No puedo creer como la gente solo esta ahi mirando yo no pararía de gritar y saltar, que cancion hermosa, como suena en vivo😍
the audio engineer went ham with the gain knob
So addicted to this song OMG
The audience is just standing there. They could have at least nodded their head or something.
That's awesome ! Good vibes !
The mother we share is the top one for me but this one is a close second.
This reminds me of Dizzy Rascal and Madonna at the same time! fascinating. I want more.
Perfection!
I just found out about this band. This is brilliant!
her voice is so 80's perfect for the synths..
