Oh god, that was emotional. I never thought Grant was showcasing his wonderful talents close to his passing. Such a beautiful performer - his inate inner beauty shines through his music ans still resonates within many others listening to him today. Imagine being remembered as a beautiful, soulful, talented,gentle soul forver more. Tis is just a small part of what Grant has left us all. RIP my god brother.
How depressing is it that footage of dogs chasing their tails and other mindless nonsense gets millions of hits, but literally the most beautiful song ever written gets so few? This song never fails to move me.
I can't atop watching this! It''s amazing and beautiful! I don't care if I sound terrible when I sing, I always sing to this. LONG LIVE THE GO-BETWEENS!
I saw the Tallulah tour at the Paradise in the 80's in Boston.....bye bye pride is such a brilliant song....really, it's as if the mamas and the papas were in the studio with the GBs. So sad Grant is gone.
Mapple, I saw that same concert at the Paradise in Boston in the 80s. I saw it on my birthday, April 14. Best concert I've ever seen. I was so close to the the whole band and they sounded beautiful. So sorry I never got to see Grant and the band ever again in person. Once in a lifetime....
A wonderful song from a wonderful band, and there is something so touching and intimate about these acoustic performances. Thanks so much for putting this up. God bless the Go-Betweens!
Yes very tearful - saw them first in 86 in London, (Deacon Blue should have been the first support band on before they were famous - but did not show!) Robert walked into the crowd - still the most awesome thing I ever see a singer do - and I stood right at the front stage left and fell in love with Amanda. My friend came to see them with me another time and met his future wife at the gig!!!!! - only through music!
The last LP "Oceans Apart" was so great, and I was again really excited and thought, oh they have it all together again. It is really sad to hear that Grant is dead. Friede seiner Asche
I assume Grant McLennan is doing most of the singing, he reminds me of Paul Kelly for some reason, I think that's a good thing because I love Paul Kelly.
