Amazing version of this song. When will Josh Homme get the accolades he deserves? I don't think many people know how good of a guitarist and a musician he really is.
Saw them twice on consecutive nights, double bill with NIN Auckland/Wellington, NZ. They played this at Wellington, made my 2 days. Got the set list signed by and from Hutch after the QOTSA set, made my 50th, as did the birthday card that followed a week later, signed by the band and Mo Sup and Pat. Thanks, QOTSA and co, for being fucking legends.
+Tom T By they, you mean QOTSA and Björk right? Because if you do, then fuck yes, I agree with you! They turned a sort of spacey, dance song into a almost doom-laden, stoner metal ballad.
Saw them a couple hours ago in Montreal, and they played it!!! along with song for the dead, no one knows, little sister, a couple more and of course the whole queens of the stone age album. BEST CONCERT EVER
The first time i saw them play this song live, was at a club in Seattle. I had been up front in the pit the entire show. I was drenched in sweat. I was so thirsty and my body was just craving water. So I came out to drink some water then have a couple beers. I had brought some blow with me to the show. Probably the main reason I was wanting water. Anyways I had maybe 2 grams or so left. I had been wanting to see them play this song badly. So Josh starts the next song, I knew right away and its BLTC. So I pull out my baggie of blow and straw, put the straw in it. And im literally snorting as much as i could as i run back into the pit. I did some stupid shit when I was young, hell i still do. But the memories are fantastic. 😂
i used to like Stevie Ray Vaughn, Eric Clapton, Jimmi Hendrix or Carlos Santana's guitar playing about 15 years ago, but man, these days, Joshua Homme is the #1 guitar slayer in my opinion... He is the new real deal that i'm sure will rock my noodle til i die!
I can tell why they broadcast The Beatles into space, instead of Queens of the Stone Age. We didn't want to blow the alien's minds before they even got here.
One of the best live performances ive seen on youtube, and, I have to say, it looks like one of the most physically demanding on everybody's behalf. This is much better than the studio version, but both kick ass
one of the best versions. this is one of those songs that in every incarnation is just fucking amazing. when that riff kicks in it just takes you away to a place words can't describe
at 3:31 you can see the devil trying to enter the stage, falling from the sky - like the fallen angel that he is. Paralyzed immediately, tough, by so much awesomeness, he is left for dead. Only to be picked and thrown away by a QOTSA-roadie, a few seconds later. The end.
Yea man hes my fav too. its all them years of kyuss and trippin and stuff in the desert man, hes just transcended. this is my favourite solo on this song!
This is pretty rare footage... Josh playing his Ovation with some Badcats into the Lullabies Era and Joey playing bongos lol?? Pretty bad ass!! Love myself some early Queens stuff!!
Thanks for sharing. Some QOTSA was just what was needed to wash away the aftertaste of too many shots on at the top of the week at the local DC 14St dive.
...and still to this day, i envisage Josh, in a suit, all gentlemanly like, with the sleeves torn off....something about the finesse, and the rawness....
R u serious ? They're like THE best rock-group !!! Josh Homme is a magician when he holds a guitar, it's just magical and almost unnatural what he can do with a guitar, not to mention his great feeling to invent a great song and best of all he just lives to perform live concerts, when he's playing live, you got no other chance but to enjoy it, even if you aren't a fan
I mean this in the best possible way... josh homme is the second coming of elvis. Genre bending, but completely deliberate. Carving your own path. Charisma like you wouldnt believe. Pure rockstar.
have you ever seen rock in rio 14? michael absolutely kills it there. nick is great, considering he came up with the bassline, but michael deff knows how to make it still awesome
Amazing version of this song.

Musicians know
Still I feel similar, it is not just anyone who invents riffs like this.
we know, and that's enough
I know and that's enough
Deserves the Rock and Roll HOF!
songs like these are making QOTSA to one of the greatest Rock Bands ever!
Agreed
4:40 mark that shit is tight...def good performance..cocaine helps😁
I've seen QOTSA live 3 times and they've always played this song. It's absolutely amazing live. Josh is an outstanding guitarist.
Im literally coming home from a qotsa concert right now and whilst they didnt play this i can confirm they are stull fucking exceptional
Royal Blood must of listened to a Lotta queens of the stone age this riff alone defines their career to date
who would want a better influence?!
Yep, glad I saw them open for queens at the forum.

i love he always adds something to every guitar riff that is different from the album, no matter how small it always fits.

OFIDH awesome story man, how'd that unfold?!
possibly one of the greatest tunes they have written so far
+Tom T By they, you mean QOTSA and Björk right? Because if you do, then fuck yes, I agree with you! They turned a sort of spacey, dance song into a almost doom-laden, stoner metal ballad.
ah, i miss the ovation. i hope he busts it out again, some day. he truly had his own sound with that guitar.
Look how small that Ovation GP looks on Josh, he's a colossous, and such an underated guitar player. This performance is immense.
homme is so good. his guitar is just part of his body.
Joey Castillo tears it up in this performance. This is my favorite live of this song.
Absolute best guitar intro he’s done to this song. Amazing.
I always love it when they have a just a jam session after some of there songs.
"I'm reclaiming my mind, destroying everyone."
Gotta love them lyrics!
Live always good ,amazing band
Can’t believe I didn’t listen to ‘Rated R’ until a few weeks ago. Love this Song! Can’t wait to see them play live!
Guy on percussion gave incredible performace. What an energy!
Joey Castillo. He recorded Danzig 4. Hell of a drummer
i've had the divine pleasure of hearing this song in person
Saw them a couple hours ago in Montreal, and they played it!!! along with song for the dead, no one knows, little sister, a couple more and of course the whole queens of the stone age album. BEST CONCERT EVER

Headlong, the only way to go that I know.
best performance of this song ever. I envy those who were there
The best band i have ever seen live.
For those who have never seen them. Man yous have missed out on somthing special.
This is a song to feel, more than hear. It’s hypnotic 🖤
Took me 7 QOTSA shows, but I finally heard this song live. Melted my mind. I am not the same person I was before I heard this song live.
I come back to this video every few days just to watch the amazing. These guys deserve so much more recognition then they currently do.
Now this should be on the DELUXE VERSION!!!! Best live solo ive ever heard...
Wow ! What a performance ! Specially from the drummer.
Joey Castillo is a beast and my favorite QUOTSA drummer

Josh Homme was 5 years old when that happened.
That was one massive bend!
One of the best live performances ive seen on youtube, and, I have to say, it looks like one of the most physically demanding on everybody's behalf. This is much better than the studio version, but both kick ass
I will never forget the first time... all those years ago... When I first heard THIS song! 🤘🏼
one of the best versions. this is one of those songs that in every incarnation is just fucking amazing. when that riff kicks in it just takes you away to a place words can't describe

Wtf is that?
Username Denied the devil
Any updates on that Moron?
Yea man hes my fav too. its all them years of kyuss and trippin and stuff in the desert man, hes just transcended. this is my favourite solo on this song!
OMG! The riff of this song causes me chills!
It is the EPIC queens of the stone age song. Like the mind-bending climax of all that is ROCK music!!
God sent them to earth to save rock n roll
2:30 until 3:00, Josh really moves that GP around to get a feedback! A definite highlight!
how about when he actually plays it I think that's more what should be noted
This is pretty rare footage... Josh playing his Ovation with some Badcats into the Lullabies Era and Joey playing bongos lol?? Pretty bad ass!! Love myself some early Queens stuff!!
Eargasm!!!
Thanks for sharing. Some QOTSA was just what was needed to wash away the aftertaste of too many shots on at the top of the week at the local DC 14St dive.
it just have this flow,this atmosphere like almost no other song...this song makes me high
Love that older song from way back in the day.
Homme have got this black guitar since is 16 I think (I think it's an Ovation).
fantastic performance.
Benefits of C tuning! Got to love it.
12 seconds in and it's a thumbs up.
amazing performance! wish we could see more of Nick.
Weed changed the way I saw this song
+sonic titan literally the best song for smoking
@@TheHammeredDog for me it was mdma, but yeah, weed always works aswell :'D
This song changed the way I saw weed.
i luv this tune, what a performance
3:30 troy's like "wtf?"
@AQueenOfTheStoneAge i enter another world when this song plays, totally awsum !!!!!!!
I love the bass. Such a smooth sound.
Love the way Joey plays the drums like he's beating the face of his worst enemy!
...and still to this day, i envisage Josh, in a suit, all gentlemanly like, with the sleeves torn off....something about the finesse, and the rawness....
Well put.
I like this, because I like Josh, I like QOTSA...but, what? lol
No mortal could ever create something so awe inspiring... THEY ARE GODS.
Hands down - in my opinion the greatest Qotsa song so far... love it -- epic !!!
don't stop liking these guys. enjoy everything
R u serious ? They're like THE best rock-group !!!

Thank you for posting this video. This is a proper rockl band.
One of the best songs by Homme & fellas
Damn this group is impressive.
GREAT QOTSA! I LOVE THIS SONG AND RATED-R ALBUM.

Love love !
Every time I hear you, Im in love. thx Josh.
Oliveri brought them doin that yea. Best musical performance of that song in youtube. THX NICK!
I love Josh's solos!
I love watching Josh play
Indeed. His skills are comparable to master bra'tac with his Ma'Tok. He would make a fine Goa'uld Jaffa.
the best trip you can ever have...
Haha Josh: "Stay with me now". God, it's not that hard to clap on time.
Bloody hell. Great vid. Great solo. Wicked version of this track.
I mean this in the best possible way... josh homme is the second coming of elvis. Genre bending, but completely deliberate. Carving your own path. Charisma like you wouldnt believe. Pure rockstar.
dude, that was a hell of a gig!
"Rock my noodle" is the best string of words i've ever heard.
I have no words.....
this is a masterpiece.
Completely dig the otherworldly comment - it is like reaching the clouds. A high point in rocking out. I hope Vultures can fly like this. Forever.
sit back, relax, and enjoy the RIDE!!!
Such a Kyuss vibe
what a masterwork!
Incredible!
my new found epicness of a song
One of the more satisfying songs to play on bass. Shuman is a beast.
meant to say too... beast too.
have you ever seen rock in rio 14? michael absolutely kills it there. nick is great, considering he came up with the bassline, but michael deff knows how to make it still awesome
Here is Nick ...
I'm late to your shuman is a beast party, but I hope you realize that this is long before he was in the band?
yeah, kyuss, qotsa, rekords rekords, desert sessions
all of that and this video = 5/5
thanks for the post man!
