You have an incredible music taste I don't know if you are the same guy commenting on the elliott smith videos cause he has the same eraserhead pfp but I love you
If only Slowdive would release all these amazing songs on some sort of compilation. All we have is bootlegs, but I'd be fine with paying the band to create an official cd of em.
It is interesting how songs that were not the content of an album are better than songs that were part of the content of a 100% constituted album. And without a doubt, Slowdive is the best example of this. And we could say "I want this on Spotify" or "I want to hear it in studio album quality," but come on: that scratchy, retro, lo-fi sound is a plus here.
apparently this WAS supposed to be the album, originally. the label rejected the first 20 songs they submitted and told them to go back into the studio and “write something good” this time
I think just for a day is a great album. These songs are great too. To this day nothing gives me the same feeling that Primal gives me. It’s so intense
It's the best songs I've ever heard. I'm on my death bed in the hospital right now and the nurses are all tripping with me! I can't believe. I'm crying
I wish they would release a remastered version of all these songs one day. Hide yer eyes, I saw the sun, Joy and I thought I saw are one of my favourite tunes ever. Ironically I kinda like slowdive's unreleased stuff even more than their official LPs.
Erm, they reformed in 2014, have toured regularly and released a new album in 2017 with another coming in 2023? This was a couple of months back ruclips.net/video/cJjBPtfZua8/видео.html&ab_channel=GS
Sleep in particular is amazing, probably one of my top 5 ever Slowdive songs. Crazy that they never had it on an official album. Maybe they'll put it on their new album like Radiohead did with True Love Waits.
@@denzeljordan3448 yeah. Apparently their (label I guess?) Put it up on their spotify as a 2021 remaster but it was taken down like 2 days later because it "wasn't approved by the band"
Absolutely beautiful sounds here. Been perfect for my morning of a long bus ride around a Berkshire town. It's been sunny, raining, grey and sunny with deep thick grey/white clouds. It's been a perfect choice of music for such a morning.
All of these demo's are incredible. The bass in Silver Screen is just mind-blowing, as much as most all of this, this band has helped me out of many bad times, they're a real gem 💎 And to whoever is reading this, you have amazing taste!
slowdive was the best thing to ever happen to me. could there be anything more beautiful than their songs? the answer is no, nothing compares to slowdive's incredible music.
Imagine if they released or even re-recorded all of these songs! That would be amazing!! Ugh this band is so underrated and deserves more recognition 😩😆
I Thought I Saw should've made it on Souvlaki and I've always said this! Nobody ever says this is their favorite unreleased but to me...the composition is up there with When The Sun Hits, 40 Days, etc.
Stars That Shine (aka Untitled No. 3) and Silver Screen are two of my favourite Slowdive songs. Studio versions that kept the original essence of the songs in tact would be absolutely amazing.
What was Alan McGee thinking of? Some of these songs are great. Especially like ‘Joy’...you can hear the Siouxie / Joy Division influence there, and it would have been an interesting addition to the usual ethereal floatiness.
17:48 I can see you laughing Through dreams of perfect sleep Sleep away from me You know what's in my mind When you go I'm crying Dream, dream away from me Let the Lord embrace you Bow down, spare the reed When I close my eyes Your fate shall be free When I see you drowning I'll dream, dream away from you
This is my first experience with Slowdive and I can say this in itself is a near perfect album to me. Wouldn't mind if they were all remastered and officially released. (Not sure if they have been already lol)
Няхай мой каментар згубіцца сярод астатніх, але я не магу ня выказаць свае каханне да гэтага гурту. Гэтая музыка са мной заўсёды: калі мне кепска, калі мне добра, калі я кудысьці іду альбо нават проста стаю, гляджу на неба і мару аб чым-небудзь, што наўрад ці збудецца. Музыка slowdive сапраўды чароўная і мне складна растлумачыць свае пачуцці. Але, сапраўды, нават штосьці са мной адбываецца, калі слухаю іх песні, быццам я лунае ў аблоках, быццам больш няма неякай сувязі паміж мной і зямлёй і я толькі лячу ўдалячынь, дзе, бачыш, закат, які пакрывае ўсё чырвонам полымем і акрамя мяне і гэтага закату нічога і нікога няма... толькі я і бясконцыя, чырвоныя аблокі. Дзякуй, slowdive, пішыце і далей гэтую чароўную і цудоўную музыку. Вітанне за Беларусі!
They are truly unique, beautiful, moving, sensational. Their music always takes me to a peaceful place. First song I heard was Summer Day in 2009; I was almost 15 and God was that the best summer of my youth 😭
Some really great tracks, I'm a big fan of Slowdive but there are a load here that I've never heard before. Would be nice if they could release these in HQ or as a CD album at some point. I suppose that some of these were tracks that Alan McGee (or maybe the band themselves) decided to shelve. 20 odd years on and hopefully it becomes apparent that there are some real gems here.
this takes me back to sophomore year so intensely. i remember listening to this video everyday during my english class. wish i could look back and say something like “ good times..” but obviously not haha
really appreciate someone posting something like this- ive listened to just for a day souvlaki and pygmallion over and over again and now finally something i havent heard
There once was a ginge named McGee, who's label had so much to see, but he gave up on the arts and sold out to the charts, just to ride in a Rolls limousine.

All these songs are incredebly amazing! Slowdive is one of the greatest band in the music history.
I think its summer daze not day
Thank you for the time stamps. Such beautiful memories
🖤
Thanks for beautiful Independent masterpeace music !
I can’t believe they didn’t release sleep. There’s no way they thought it wasn’t good enough to release.
christian savills earlier band eternal wrote sleep and released it on their breathe ep
eternal
Aaron Westall Spotify?
Totally agree! Sleep is a fantastic song and one of my favourites if not my favourite
it’s out in spotify as a podcast now!
Sleep has such an otherworldy sound.
Exactly! One of my favourite.
what i imagine heroin to sound like
@@caspiantimothy6834 Feels like I'm using LSD without actually using one.
@@shapeshifter8778 One of my fav, too. Sleep & Golden Hair. Listened to them over & over.
otherworldly what a beautiful word
What I find the most amazing with Slowdive is that even their "rejected songs" are wonderful pieces of art.
You have an incredible music taste I don't know if you are the same guy commenting on the elliott smith videos cause he has the same eraserhead pfp but I love you
Why nobody talks about song 1 ? It’s such a beautiful underrated song
Yes indeed. These songs are all very good. My bid to god, however, rests on the instrumental last track.
it almost sounds like Grimes
song 2 is more popular. wooo hooo

My brother bought this on vinyl for 15 bucks. He struck gold

Marz Razavi ^
@Bryan Keisling ay cheers bro
Yeah bootleg doesn't sound good especially with the audio mostly choppy.
Each time Sleep plays I get an out-of-body experience

wich manga is that
I love knowing all the words to that song!

Honestly the scratchy lofi sound sounds so nostalgic idk why. Definitely hits different

I think just for a day is a great album. These songs are great too. To this day nothing gives me the same feeling that Primal gives me. It’s so intense
Shoegaze works very well with a more lofi production
youtube audio quality is higher than spotify anyway
"Sleep" comes from anywhere else but Earth.
It comes from the soul.
Alternative universe
Ironically "I Saw The Sun" is my favorite Slowdive song
Good one, yes.
I'm in love with it
better than most official releases these days
better than most official releases period
better than life
I can't believe that Sleep is unreleased!!!! Best song from this list.
such a shame 'I saw the sun' will never get the proper treatment it deserves.....and 'Stars that shine'.
Great track
I have to admit these raw versions have something special about them.
And sleep
thought i saw is perfect too
@@edwincuevas9965 totally agree.
Sleep is one of my favorite songs. I can't believe it isn't released ugh.
It released now check spotify :)
@@omerkafadar5303 where exactly? Can't find it.
@@thom6593 they deleted
It's the best songs I've ever heard. I'm on my death bed in the hospital right now and the nurses are all tripping with me! I can't believe. I'm crying
Sleep is my favorite slowdive song, still can't believe it never got released. Such a shame :/
Just stumbled on this band. Reminds me of the cure and Ride smashed together. My 16 year old self would’ve loved this. Enjoying this in my 40’s 🖤
I wish they would release a remastered version of all these songs one day. Hide yer eyes, I saw the sun, Joy and I thought I saw are one of my favourite tunes ever. Ironically I kinda like slowdive's unreleased stuff even more than their official LPs.
oh yeah, i definitely agree. i couldn’t tell you why… but it is what it is. These unreleased songs are just peak songwriting imo.
@@fabyn8190 gracias :)
Bleed is so good
Simply awesome - just imagine how this would sound „live“!
i've never heard something like Bleed or Joy
its definetly a banger
The world needs a Slowdive reunion now more than ever. 27 years has been way too long.
Erm, they reformed in 2014, have toured regularly and released a new album in 2017 with another coming in 2023? This was a couple of months back ruclips.net/video/cJjBPtfZua8/видео.html&ab_channel=GS
They reunited, made a new album, toured- the works, brotha.
@@Planklike for real??? I Don’t Know Why I didn’t hear about that.
They are making an album now! And also just released a new single :)
bleed and sleep are as good if not better than their actual releases imo.
Sleep in particular is amazing, probably one of my top 5 ever Slowdive songs. Crazy that they never had it on an official album. Maybe they'll put it on their new album like Radiohead did with True Love Waits.
@@pancakes1271 it was on slowdive's spotify as a remastered 2021 for a split second and then they took it down as if it was a mistake
@@ryfipassword yoo actually?
@@denzeljordan3448 yeah. Apparently their (label I guess?) Put it up on their spotify as a 2021 remaster but it was taken down like 2 days later because it "wasn't approved by the band"
@@ryfipassword whered you get the "wasnt approved by the band" info tho? im just trying to figure out if they'll eventually release it or something
I can't make it LOUD enough!
Sleep should not be forgotten in history
Absolutely beautiful sounds here.
Been perfect for my morning of a long bus ride around a Berkshire town.
It's been sunny, raining, grey and sunny with deep thick grey/white clouds.
It's been a perfect choice of music for such a morning.
Rachel on vocals >>>>>>>>
this is absolutely utterly beautiful. thanks guys.
This is my first time ever hearing these guys. This is unbelievable
these songs are pure magic
Sleep is one of my favorite songs of all time. Top 3 probably. It's undescribable
All of these demo's are incredible. The bass in Silver Screen is just mind-blowing, as much as most all of this, this band has helped me out of many bad times, they're a real gem 💎 And to whoever is reading this, you have amazing taste!

Sleep brings me back to being a kid in the 2000s and hanging out with my mom until the sun rose. Song wraps me in nostalgia.
will love them forever
yupppp. hope you still love them cause you commented this 5 years ago
@@lol-ki8yd Absolutely! 😍
wow so beautiful ❤️
Wow. Just wow. A real fan right here :)
I Meet them a couple months ago 🥹 i love them so much! They are like heroes ❤️
Joy is such an awesome song
Rap and RnB always had my soul. Found this music and similar bands now I'm singing sleep
First time hearing a lot of these. Really great ideas and melodies... gem of a find.
Imagine if they released or even re-recorded all of these songs! That would be amazing!! Ugh this band is so underrated and deserves more recognition 😩😆
So heartbreaking we can't find these on Spotify. They're all phenomenal!
I Thought I Saw should've made it on Souvlaki and I've always said this! Nobody ever says this is their favorite unreleased but to me...the composition is up there with When The Sun Hits, 40 Days, etc.
Stars That Shine (aka Untitled No. 3) and Silver Screen are two of my favourite Slowdive songs.

True but we might not have got souvlaki had they done this as an album first. I wish sleep and silver screen made it to souvlaki
His head had been turned by Oasis...quite severely.
in my opinion i saw the sun is the best. it's like you're in a dream, lost
The song "Silver Screen" is stunning
david young so good!
sleep is the best slowdive song ever man
I really liked the bleed. It's an underrated one. That feeling of chaos that it brings to you is the best feeling ever.
17:48
I can see you laughing
Through dreams of perfect sleep
Sleep away from me
You know what's in my mind
When you go I'm crying
Dream, dream away from me
Let the Lord embrace you
Bow down, spare the reed
When I close my eyes
Your fate shall be free
When I see you drowning
I'll dream, dream away from you
11 musical gems
this is my first time listening to slowdive and every single one of these are gems wow can't wait to explore their released music.
This is my first experience with Slowdive and I can say this in itself is a near perfect album to me. Wouldn't mind if they were all remastered and officially released. (Not sure if they have been already lol)
i love how you can see the stirrings and even pieces of later songs in several of these! ;)
song 1 is so sick! I just imagine being at the precipice of a mountain at night staring at the infinite sea of stars.
what can I say, just ... wow ... thanks for sharing!
Amazing songs, SLOWDIVE FOREVER!
1000 thanks for sharing it ! These songs are beautiful. Hope some of them would be included in possible Slowdive next lp ...
these songs hits hard ngl
the first song i knew was sleep, still my fav tho
Some of the best quality for these songs
Silver Screen is the best tune here love it a great deal
all these songs are so beautiful i cant believe they haven't been released :( especially sleep, that one is my favorite
You know a band is great when one unreleased song (Sleep) is better than some bands' whole discographies.
Ich bin glücklich, dass ich wieder "neue" Lieder von Slowdive hören kann. Aufregend.
I`m happy about listening to "new" Slowdive songs. Amazing.
sleep me transporta a otro mundo
God, I love YT so much for showing THIS❤❤❤
I'm loving that instrumental
sleep
Thank you very much for making this playlist! Obrigado 🇧🇷❤

stars that shine is one of the most ear melting songs ever made.
I love Slowdive
Wat a beautiful thought, at 2020 to get a lost album after all MY YEARS. What a real album it does still make.
this takes me back to sophomore year so intensely. i remember listening to this video everyday during my english class. wish i could look back and say something like “ good times..” but obviously not haha
I cant believe I'm seeing them live in May one week after my birthday ( ͡^ ͜ʖ ͡^) I love their music so fucking much
you are lucky man
Masterpiece. Sleep in particular is too goddamn good of a song!
Thank you for uploading such precious songs
my first slowdive song i ever listened to was sleep :)
Maravilha bixo, que dlç de musicas, grande parte eu já tinha ouvido antes, Slowdive é coisa dos Deuses.
joy velho. destruidora
acabei de conhecer e tô curtindo pakas
Queria muito achar Sleep no spotify para baixar
amazing songs...!!!!
Sleep is such a damn masterpiece.
they should make a soulvlaki 2 and remaster a lot of these songs
PLS RELEASE ON SPOTIFYYYYYYYYYYY
great stuff, wish there was an LP
Sleep........... Another one of those songs that is a true gift to the world.
So glad I am one of those who found it_
really appreciate someone posting something like this- ive listened to just for a day souvlaki and pygmallion over and over again and now finally something i havent heard
The instrumental at the end though 😫😫❤❤
i believe i like this more than soulvlaki , it hooks me right on
These songs are so amazing, it's unbelievable that they're not released 😢 How can I get these jewels on cd? Please let me know!
I love all of these 🖤
Man I love youtube's algorithm. Lets me discovering new stuff all the time
Beautiful music all, also all your faces, ayes mouths, talented people.
Hide your eyes .. best song on here
first time listening Slowdive, i don't know why i am crying. anyone can explain these feelings?
Catharsis maybe?
yes bro, im also experiencing a sort of reawakening and dissolving of feelings at the same time emotion just flowing
That happened to me when I listened to Brighteyes Casa Dega album 1st time
Same
You gotta see them live ! You will cry hard ! The crescendo of Catch the Breeze is life changing !
Dude Sleep is a world class mind bender.
Summer Day !
sleep is incredible.
тут так уютно..
