With a wealth of tunes on Urban Hymns to choose from, I’ve found that Velvet Morning rose to be my absolute favorite. Something about it brings out the best aspects of what I love about Ashcroft and his craft. Perfection of harmony and soul.
This is one of the most heartfelt meaningful songs you could hear, Richard is a true Legend great to see him teaming up with Liam too great times people!
I'm going to see Richard on the second of November I seen him at finsbury Park when I went to our LG. This man is fucking unreal a man a guitar and a fucking euphoric feeling like no other 🙏
I believe this is the GREATEST version of Velvet Morning ever recorded. Between Richard’s beautiful raw emotion in his voice and Steve Wyreman’s amazing guitar this is fantastic. It needs to go on an album. Richard and Steve together are an amazing combination. Thank you for this recording it’s beautiful
"Velvet Morning" is a great song from The Verve's "Urban Hymns" album. Always one of my favorites, this live version personifies the passion, the anguish and the tenderness of Richard's lyrics.
I have been listening to the verve since 94 as acid taking weed smoking youth. I left all that behind but still listen too richards work. Amazing talent
Velvet Morning The Verve Yes It's been long And yes I still feel strong Into the half light Another velvet morning for me, yeah Time Stands still As you take Your last pill Into the half light Another velvet morning for me And now I'm trying to tell you About my life And my tongue is twisted And more dead than alive And my feelings They've always been betrayed And I was born a little damaged man And look what they made I said, don't you find That it's lonely The corridor You walk there alone And life is a game You've tried And life is a game You're tired Yes I'm coming down Your beauty is A color surround Into the half light Another velvet morning for me And now I'm trying to tell you About my life And my tongue is twisted And more dead than alive And my feelings My feelings, they've been betrayed And I was born a little damaged man And look what they made He said, don't you find That it's lonely The corridor You walk there alone And life is a game You've tried And life is a game You're tired And life is a game You've tried
