You can't ever unhear this. The insanity of this violin pierced my brain more than 20 years ago and there's no stopping..... nor even slowing....... it burns magnificently.
I met Tom Barman in April 2007 in a bar in Bairro Alto, Portugal. I was with my boyfriend when Tom came in. I instantly recognized him and told my boyfriend to go talk to him... I was shy. He went, Tom was very nice, went to our table, talked a lot, payed us drinks, so cool! :) We took pictures! For a fan like us it was just like a dream!
Tom is amazing. Met him so many times and he is always attentive, gives a hug asks how you have been etc. So grateful for all the memories he let me have
@@fredericlanglest7681The plague of being famous exemplified in this comment thread : people from all around the world that have, at best, shared a few minute of your time, spreading the word about "how you are"
In 1995 had onze Nederlandse klas een uitwisselingsprogramma met een Belgische klas uit Tienen, daar kreeg ik toen een Belgisch vriendinnetje en de jongen die aan mij gekoppeld was door de school luisterde o.a. naar dEUS. Ik heb ze daarna nooit meer losgelaten. Geweldige tijd toen en nu. Dank.
You certainly can DEUS are one of the most underrated bands in history I cannot think of a single song I don't love. It was DEUS that made me go live there for a year. Beautiful country by the way.
Saw Deus at the Reading Festival 1994. Astonishing. Again in a club in Camden where the sweat poured down the walls and dripped off the ceiling and they were fucking fantastic. Nearly 30 years on, they're still one of my favourite bands 😍
Corona Lockdown makes me hearing all the 90s stuff... And dEUS are one of my favorites... Even if I think of Cologne (MTC) in 1995 when we met after the show ;) 25 years ago ... Somewhere I have a drawing by Stef :D Can't find it anymore... :( But I found a few photos of the band on stage ;)
This song, and the video, really changed my life. Two guys holding hands and singing with passion. It made me realise that guys can do that. The era was the opposite.
@@mattluera95 Oh ... LOL ... 'twas too long ago for me to remember the exact wording ... ^^ I watched it once 26 years ago ... Those were the days ... And now that I think of it: It was quite seldom that a Belgian band was on Beavis and Butthead! (But who if not dEUS.)
It's just incredible how many talent we actually have in our small country Belgium. I always knew we we're something different, but i only realize now that we can become anything we want. I always thought i was stuck in our small country.. Thank u to every Belgian person/group/team that showed people like me wrong!
Music, yes. But let's not forget your painters, writers (I'm partial to Jean Ray, one of my favorites), etc… and amongst the things that taketh me a unrepentant belgophile, your sense of humour !
I'm Portuguese and dEUS became my favorite band from the first time I listened to them on the radio (10 years ago). I also love Stef-Kamil and his Zita Swoon's band :)
only after I met the front singer, Tom in a pub, i started to check dEUS out, now I realise what a band it is and what it meant to so many people back in the day... damn this is history!!
Ahh those were the days,Deus playing on Pirate radio in Dublin,i recorded this song on to cassette from the radio when it was airing,i just had to have it.The album was awesome too,an all new sound for me,prob well in my top 10 of the 90's,this and Hotel lounge,well we had to let our energy and angst out on something!
Good band. The Ideal Crash is possibly one of the best albums ever recorded. I remember I was on a plane and some woman sat next to me was talking to the guy on the other side and telling him about the band she worked for and their new album. It was Deus and she gave him a pre-release promo CD of The Ideal Crash. He'd never heard of them. I was sitting there sending mind waves for her to turn to me and give me a copy too. But it never happened. Now I'd just turn to her and say, "Excellent band' giz a copy", but back then I didn't have the balls. I bet he chucked it in the bin and never listened to it.
What a great song, I love it! I put it into my "Shellshocked Radio - Recommendations" List: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-euZHKLrI_TY.html Very well done!
The Ideal Crash IS their best album. You can play it from track 1 to the last and there’s not even 1 song you want to skip, it’s impossible ! That’s how good this album is 👌
First heard this song on a tape that I got free of the cover of NME. It's one of those tunes that reminds me of a very particular summer and a very particular person. Nights in the park. Before shit got weird. Here's to absent friends (RIP) and the parts of the old days that were _so good,_ it's _almost_ possible to forget the bad parts. Almost.
這個樂隊和他們的音樂保留了我對九十年代後期在台北的記憶，與一個比利時男孩的邂逅。 後來女孩去了紐約，男孩回到了歐洲。音樂就像一個開關不小心就打開了這些塵封的記憶。This band and their music always remind me of the memories of meeting a Belgian boy in Taipei in the late 90s. Later on, the girl went to New York and the boy returned to Europe. The music is like a switch that unintentionally turns on these dusty memories."
Just saw you like the smiths,i love em to bits,top band,so many great tracks,girlfriend in a coma,bigmouth strikes again,shoplifters of the world,so many great tunes
this was one of those rare songs that got put on beavis and butthead because it was actually good, and they wanted to blow it up for a wider audience, not just to make fun of it. Well and the rights were probably cheap AF. I wish deus rocked this hard more often, I like a lot of their music but this has way more energy than most of their songs. PS the extended outro is cut off here, he says friday/fried egg/career/korea about 34000 times over some nice jamming.
Nice to know more about that outro, Ian. These vets are still rockin'. Mauro is a fucking beast. But yeah, their early work (In a bar..., Worst Case..) is way better than their newer stuff. Not bad though, but this is legendary right here. Cool that they got some international recognition, but I still don't get why they aren't any bigger than this. Here in Belgium they're kings though ;)
I was introduced to this band by Beavis and Butthead in 1995 when this music would never have reached my local branch of Camelot Music. Some years later, as an adult, I heard it again on ine independent, non-profit radio station KEXP in Seattle. There are so many more European rock bands that remain obscure to a North American audience that need to be known. Y'know. dEUS, The EX, Les Thugs, who am i missing?
Beavis and Butt-head first introduced to me this song too. I used to have it on video but threw it away years ago. Luckily we have the ability to download now and I've discovered their discography.
I remember discovering that song and the band playing live on the French/German channel Arte (the link is actually on RU-vid!); and I just loved that tune ever since: completely bonkers and full of surprises...
To all people here digging the genius of dEUS, you shouldn't miss out on "Vitral - Asíntota". Go check it out now. Kick ass experimental underground stuff from 2016 already becoming a classic in itself.
Mijn nonkel had dit album gekocht en heeft mij geïntroduceerd aan hun muziek, hij is vorig jaar gestorven. Ik hou van je ❤😢. Ik ben trots dat ik tussen zo’n mensen ben opgegroeid.
Butthead: Why's that guy padding his stomach? Beavis: Maybe he's got like, a hurt rabbit in his shirt and he's going, as soon as like we're done with video, and ill let you out and ill give you a carrot Butthead: Dammit Beavis now see thats what i'm talking about right there. You're going, yeah maybe thats a rabbit in his stomach a bleh bleh bleh
I agree with every word you say. I am from the Netherlands and we can learn alot from Belgium when it comes to music.... A dutchy would never be able to create such a great song like this one.
What a great song, I love it! I put it into my "Shellshocked Radio - Recommendations" List: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-euZHKLrI_TY.html Very well done!
0:02 "Is that the smoke alarm?" "Dammit Beavis, did you burn another burrito again?" "Uh, I don't think so." "We need to take the batteries out of that damn thing." "But what if there's a... uh, nevermind."
Tommeke toch, dit is voor mij de beste rocksong uit de belgische rockgeschiedenis!! Hell yeah, iedere keer zit ik gewoon te headbangen, ik vind het schit-ter-rend!!!!!
Always outsiders but brilliant early 90s through to about 99, after that a bit more patchy but so much more interesting than most of their contemporaries. Unique band
Wow, by the time you wrote this you only knew ONE song of dEUS? Then you had so much more great tracks to discover!! Like ALL of their albums! (at least till "The Perfect Crash" ... But "Vantage Point" is also great!" Especially the single "Slow"!)
Maybe he's got, like, a hurt rabbit in his shirt, he's, like, going, "As soon as we're done with this video, I'm gonna let you out, then I'll give you a carrot, we're gonna fix your leg…"
