I disagree with everyone saying vocals were weak. I think the band carried through perfectly and the shyness in the vocals definitely suit the situation and lyrics. Very emotional, and I think they pulled it off perfectly. Mogwai rules!!!
I love Mogwai, love this song, and they are fantastic live. But this? How have the sound guys messed this up so badly. Who is responsible for it? BBC? WTF.
i like this version. love the vocals too, slightly too loud and a bit out of tune. not pre-fabricated like most tv shows. ads a bit more like watching the band live.
Love the song, studio version is great. The band is fine here also but I think the singer is singing in a register which is uncomfortable (too low maybe?) for him.
i think Stuart did great here. it's how he sounds, nothing wrong with that. if you guys wanna hear a diff version, listen to this one ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tGCQ3iqBaCg.html
BBC live sounds are atrocious, nice to see it's not limited to festivals Mogwai should've won. Have the majors corrupted the Mercury's too #justlikethebrits
I saw them live this summer and this track was also great live , the mixing of the BBC is the problem here ... And normally there’s an effect on Stuart’s voice which is not here .
Lol sounds ruthless for a fan to say somethin like that. I can see ya pep talkin the boys in the back over a beer before the show ‘don’t play a bland as fuck song boys and Stuart don’t fuckin sing not even a word’ now GO GET EM
