decent live version of Thieves Like Us? — Forum Archive

22 Apr 2007, 23:23

Can anyone tell me of a good version? How come Bernard struggled so much with this live? Did he not particularly like the tune?

Hac June 83 is my fave - could even have been it's debut. 10 mins plus.

There's a couple of excellent US 83 versions, when they hadn't finished it, that go on for up to around 15 minutes. The Hacienda 20/7/83 is an awesome version, it started to go downhill from 1984 when they cut the intro out and turned it into a three minute pop song though.

Bernard couldn't sing it because it was written in a key he couldn't sing, as were so many of the songs before 87!

It's the second to last Youtube clip in the thread Pope posted, no? It's not complete, though.

I like the debut of Thieves from I-Beam partly because of the awkward guitar bits, partly because of Barney's potty mouth.

Yeah, I understand about the pre-87 bit, but I like his vocal on the record; not perfect, but good. Who's most responsible for the music on this one?
