    My god this is as awesome as the studio version! Love the speedier tempo. What a joy to watch the original lineup just killing it. Marty and Peter are just phenomenal, then and now, and Steve’s soothing voice always ties it all together. I am grateful to have seen them in 2004 when Marty and Peter were still with the band, but I just saw them a month ago with Ian, Ash and Jeffrey and I remain in thrall. They are also great musicians. Long live The Church!
    My only complaint with this video is that there is not a single shot of Richard Ploog who if you listen is absolutely kicking ass on the drums. That guy had talent.

    This song is a masterpiece. Starfish is a classic front to back. That album captured a aching melancholy, a haunting autumn dusk that still "rattles" my soul (see what i did there?) and transcends time. BTW, Ploog is not human in this video. The f$#$8ing fills he does after the breakdown? SIIICK!

    Three dislikes for this video can only indicate those three people don't know what is cultural art and what is beyond exemplary. This band is like no other, unique, technically intricate and fronted by the worlds all time best lyricist of our time. Steve Kilbey doesn't just write a handful of great songs he writes albums and albums of great stuff. Peter Koppes and Marty share very different personas but on stage do rip it up.

      Not for one second. If somebody does so, he or she must be deaf and blind. Peter Koppes seems to be more of a quiet guy (I don't know much about him, this is just my impression) but as we all know, still waters run deep and are full of surprises.

    A great fast version of this beautiful song, absolutely adorable. But I hate the cameramen's work. There are four musicians on stage, not just two guitarists and a singer; there wasn't even one close up of the drummer, Richard Ploog. It feels like they ignored him which I find really disrespectful to him.
    Maybe they believed that only the front musicians are important, but no. The drummer is the backbone of a band, and this should be appreciated.

  • @richblath
    @richblath 14 лет назад +1

    @Nigelxman1 In many ways it is unfair to actually compare them at all, given that the only currency you can really use is their performances on the same songs. The different drummers have all left their mark on the albums they've played on and I've enjoyed their performances both there and live, but the sound/rhythm of the band has changed so much over time that there are too many other differences to really compare...

    ...on reinterpretations of old songs it is a bit different. I agree with your description of JD and also think that TP is actually getting better as he goes along, but in neither of these cases is my opinion due to the flashiness of the part or RP's image. As I said originally, Reptile in its original form flows beautifully from first to last. I like the version that they played on the most recent tour, but there is a lack of drive from the drums during it. TP decision or band? Idk.

  • @psychobollox
    @psychobollox 16 лет назад +1

    his use of drugs increased, leading to a withdrawal into his own head; this lead to problems with an increase in the amount of work needed to get an ever-decreasing amount of drumming on record. eventually this (drug-imposed) 'isolation led to his exclusion' (Wiki article), and he was no longer heard on the Starfish album, with his parts erased in favour of very well-metred drum-machine samples. what started as time out became a kick-out. sad. has his own myspace now.
