At this point in history , I'm gonna give anybody an "A" that ACTUALLY performs the song live on stage or on a TV program...too many took the suspiciously easy way out and just lip-synced it... to me , it means these guys have the talent and the heart to do it REAL !!!!!!
I think Jay Leno is trying to be cool here, and falling flat on his arse ! The whole album is amazing (the bonus track "Libertine" is a stunner). Real shame The Cult's record label did a shite job on promoting the album at the time.
It was a reference to a previous segment earlier in the show. Makes no sense in this context but to the audience tuning in live it made slightly more sense. Absolutely loved this record.
I feel tne comments on the line-up. I love this performance!!!!! BUT best line-up has to be Ian, Billy, Jamie. and Nigel. But still grateful for every fab incarnation! I love the kicks in this video and Ian’s response to Jay’s misfire question is priceless!
love this performance. I was so amazed at the time to see them back together. So glad u uploaded it actually only had a VHS taping of it. Beyond is their best album, so ignored, even by themselves
The Cult have been a constant in my life for 40 years. Ian and Billy are great musicians. Matt Sorum rounded out the band so well. Although Ian completely blows the lyrics, it still stands up as a solid performance.
Esse ,album consolidou ,o the cult .de mais abrindo para 3ssa geração mas nova. Que não conhece a banda .esse album ,é im dos mehores do "cult" album perfeito .viceral
He's goddamned beautiful!.. And how I long to be his mastered tambourine..(sigh..). Its silly to love someone you've never met. I know. But I don't care , I'm coo coo for coco puffs!!!
You can cut Ian Astbury’s hair You can teach him the White Man’s words You can dress him in the White Man’s clothes You can convert him to the White Man’s religion But you can never take away Ian Astbury’s tambourine.
I'm amazed that Ian actually sang a song the way it was recorded..... The Cult is one of my favorite bands of all time, and IMO Ian has one of the strongest voices in a live setting.... but fuck me he butchers the phrasing of the vocal parts on nearly every song ..... its literally like he improvizes the whole concert.... been like that since Sonic temple..... It's a shame,cause one of the keys that make the Cult such a memorable band is their EPIC choruses..... thats what they do best.... and if the vocals aren't hammering it out the way it was meant to be, it really takes away from the live experience. Can you imagine if anyone else in the band took the same phrasing liberties with their respective parts????
You might be happy to find that (while singing in a lower key), he did really well in of their final performances before the pandemic! ruclips.net/video/go4s_BLLCOw/видео.html
@@bloodnchocolate I'm not taking a shot at the quality and strength of his vocals.... IMO, he has one of the strongest vocal chords in any rock front man.... it is his complete disregard for the vocal phrasing of the song melodies...... he literally improves the whole show.... imagine if Billy took the same liberties with his guitar chords.... the songs would be unintelligible....
@@jimmybamslam Yeah, and I think it's mostly due to very poor breath control, which is why I was surprised he did so well on the show I linked to. Much more respect for the songs as recorded rather than trying to vamp it out due to poor technique. He seems to have done his homework, plus he's moving a lot too!
Having consistency in that range, for a baritone voice like his… takes an absolute TON of work. They are literally capturing lightning in a bottle in the studio with his vocals. Any singer will tell you that singing his stuff is difficult. It’s not just the notes, but the weight of his tone that makes it so good. He is an incredible writer, always wrote not just amazing lyrics, but the fucking HOOKS are GREAT. “ Fire Woman” is one of the most hard hitting, catchy choruses ever written. The guy is next level in every way.. but when it came to live performance, I think he just sacrificed vocal training for the sake of the performance. He shoulda got with a coach and figured that shit out… plus, everyone knows he likes to party. To me, he will always be one of the 🐐’s.

The Cult is a great rock and roll band. Need to be in rock and roll hall of fame.
Ian has one of the best sounding voices I have ever listen two he's has his own steppin
And matt sorum always a powerhouse in his own style!!
i needed this this night. Thank You. I think it is my Dad talking to me from the Grave. I love THE CULT. SUPERFAN.
The cult has had such an impact in my life...I love the music and Ian's voice OMG...his voice!!!!😒😛😍😎
The "Electric" album came out while i was in high-school and it changed my entire perspective on music, both as a guitarist and a music fan.
Matt Sorum's taste perfectly compliments Billy and Ian. John is very good today, but Matt. Damn. The engine that drives Billy and Ian.
Incredible power and energy…Actual until these days…Long life The Cult !
Great album
ÚNICOS Y GENIALES, UN TEMAZO BRUTAL Y POTENTE!!!

FANTASTIC PERFORMANCE THANKS CULT YOU ARE AMAZING!!
Seen them three times and would go see them another three times.. One of my top favorite bands..
What kind of a stupid question was Jay Leno asking ? Shame this Album didn't sell as well. Rise was an amazing comeback tune after their first hiatus
The whole album was fantastic, produced with Bob Rock, and criminally underappreciated.

Just getting around to listening to this album now...it's fucking great..love the heavy riffs
Is he trying to call them stoners? LOL wrong drugs JAY!
My opinion (one of their best songs)
Absolutely
I really like this performance.
The Cult performance Very good
I love this album
That's a very powerful performance and an incredibly ignorant and disrespectful question to Ian Astbury.

Holy foook ya tambourine,!!!!!

YEAHHH, perfect🙏IAN voice.. pure magie 💕🎶2022 pleasure listen the band🇫🇷Lovely’s All’s 💋❤️
Strong lineup here!!!!
Esse ,album consolidou ,o the cult .de mais abrindo para 3ssa geração mas nova. Que não conhece a banda .esse album ,é im dos mehores do "cult" album perfeito .viceral
Pasan los años y sigue siendo un gran tema de Rock. Excelente versión en vivo
Great band great album... electric and sonic temple are the best for me
I have these 2 albums.🔥🤟⚡
For sure. I totally agree!
That riff Billy is laying down is Nasty, Filthy, and disgusting. I love it!! The Cult! ✊🏽
Good times. A few months later the world would change forever.
You know that feeling when someone asks you a question so stupid, you think you might pass out?
I really like this album. Their later albums have all been amazing, though not as popular.
Mr. Matt Sorum on drums!!
Ian almost remembered the lyrics. lol poor back up vocals. I love the cult .
I love the Cult, but they never had powerful back up vocals....
@@Benniken I love backup vocals from Jamie Stewart on live performance of the Sun King from Pinkpop!
SUPERBANDA !!!!
He's goddamned beautiful!..
And how I long to be his mastered tambourine..(sigh..). Its silly to love someone you've never met. I know. But I don't care , I'm coo coo for coco puffs!!!
So fun!!!!
Fuck. Yeah. Man .
Well Jay Leno made that awkward. What a tool.
My favorite lineup. Sorum and Dimick with Ian and Billy.
This is the best Cult lineup. Sorum, Dimkich and Morrison backing Ian and Billy.
Great video until Leno got stupid.
Being Asbury choked
Was that tambourine really necessary? 🤣🤣
Ian Astbury always uses the tambourine......It's his thing....
yes
Yes.
Very necessary
You can cut Ian Astbury’s hair
You can teach him the White Man’s words
You can dress him in the White Man’s clothes
You can convert him to the White Man’s religion
But you can never take away Ian Astbury’s tambourine.

I agree.....Ever since Sonic Temple, his vocals have been going downhill steadily...
You might be happy to find that (while singing in a lower key), he did really well in of their final performances before the pandemic!
