THE SUNDAYS 'Here's Where the Story Ends' "Live" on German TV 

It went insane in 2020

I saw them play this song at the Roxy in Los Angeles shortly after it came out in 1990. Harriet sounds just like this in person. I agree on Karen. You should hear the Carpenters 1975 version of "Desperado", if possible listen to the entire Horizon album from that year. Karen left us too soon.

What have you been listening to in those 32 years?

There was something about Karen’s voice I’m not sure if the word is timber but it resonates with me

This lady was not singing in that voice 27 years ago

Elizabeth Fraser.

You weren’t the only one!

You’re not the only one that I know, but I’m too proud to talk to you any way

forever.

Ja

Me so many good memories. Love to relive 1993

@@starlesscoaster Amen. Forever. this song belongs in a museum.

it's one of the best rock music songs

hardly

I happen to agree with you.

lipsynching.....

It’s a playback !!!!

Besides the point. Iver heard her live and so have you.

They just don't have the original audio to that video.

@@charleyhill9867 either that or it's the show, probably a top of the pops kinda thing even though it's germany.

ivan espindola I can relate and can imagine how you feel deep inside as I go through pain and agony every time I here this song. Even as how beautiful Harriet's voice is I break down do to a terrible break up that ment the world to me. Stay strong and try to see the brighter side of it my friend.

ivan espindola I know exactly what you mean. Make those days count!

ivan espindola you are not the only one !! everytime i hear this song i get sooo sad and nostalgic, many memories of many special ladys in my life...

It’s a very, very, very powerfully sad song: a fitting way to express the anguish of having a deep, happy, joyous relationship come undone, especially for outside circumstances. One of the many risks of experiencing profound, intense love is that it enables profound, intense heartbreak-the kind of emotional pain that either kills you or deeply scars you for life.

That voice ...That beautiful melody :)))))

I don´t know if I want to be the happiest person alive, or cut my wrists and slowly die listening to this beautiful song with a big smile on my face.

This beautiful song has me crying throughout the verses as well. Peace

+@@atomall1 Karen Carpenter once did that to me in the early 70,s as a little 4-5 yr old. I don,t why? R.I.P. Karen. Feb-83.

Les dimanches me manquent.

hate to break it to you pal but this is lip-synced.

SociallyDemocratic poor Shane's life is in complete disarray now

Betty Boop I hope he'll be able to pick himself up from this modern-day tragedy.

RIP Shane

TokenChineseGuy's Rare Music! Shane got merked

yeah....i know every note of this song.... hearing electric guitar notes but....no electric guitar on stage 😪....damn good lipsynching job though 👍

Yes, seems to be playback, just like Top of the Pops. I was hoping to hear it live...I guess that is the reason why "Live" is in quotation marks in the title.

Absolutely 100% not being performed live.

June 1993...Majestic Theatre

​@@billyg5803 That sounds about right, thanks.

Are you Roman?

Self-titled album? They had three albums, none of them called "The Sundays." Their first album, "Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic," is the one that includes this song. Is that the one you mean?

One of All time fav's too! Go Habs!!

Alonzo, When "The Sundays" came to the attention of the assorted music press in England they were described as being a hybrid of "The Smiths" guitar sound and "The Cocteau Twins" vocals. So, you are not to be blamed for looking in the 'Cocteau' or 'TMC' direction.

thehistorywatcher Me too, that song is beautiful and angelic like her voice. This song makes me feel good and helps me deal with trauma and drama.

She's actually not. Everyone is playing correctly, and if you watch other live versions of this, she's perfect. Small subtleties if you listen closely as well. They were very good, and she's absolutely incredible.

She’s got a wonderful voice, both in-studio & live. But yo this IS lip-synced my brother. Trust me. No shame in it.

Lip Sync and "Studio track played over the video" aren't the same thing.

That's because it's lip synced here. Not sure why, they sound great live.

@@scootypuffjr. Yes, and yes.

Harriet is 60 this year, with kids older than i was when this came out. No doubt she is still beautiful but i would rather keep my memories of her and the band in their prime and as a reminder of just how good the 90's were.

🤣🤣😂

Is Live or is it MEMOREX

but IT IS the record, my god, how can't you even recognize it?

@@sos4550 I know, but it says "live" in the title!

LOL! yes!!!

SPROCKETS!! WE DANCE NOW LIEBERSHEIN!! ROUSS !

Lol ok yeah ...relevant

What?

the song is so simple ..Why wouldn't they play live ?

Yes, i thought the same thing. That's totally the album version playing.

Hi ya'll. There are numerous reasons why they, television shows, used to do this, and sadly some still do. 1. insurance. (record company not having faith in the bands ability to play live - and they want the best sound (album) of the single so people will buy ($) it. 2. Technology. Some studios had good equipment, some had bad, some were missing a few pieces, some had great camera but bad audio, etc... 3. Schedule - If the artist(s) played/sang 7 hours ago at a 2 hour concert- then had to pack-up, take the bus 1 hour to next hotel, check-in, shower - bed for 2 hours - then wake-up early to bus again to the tv studio - then sing it perfectly again.... Some have actually put it in their contract that they simply can not do back to back performances. The band RUSH just recently (their last / past tour) (at age 60 x the 3 of them) told the record company / touring insurance co' that they can not do back to back shows anymore (keeping in mind not only their age, but the type of music they play and Geddy (singer)'s high range, so much equipment, 3 hour show, etc). 4 (and a half) - The tv show's upper people (way at the top) are worried about having a bad performance blamed on their show / channel, etc... (the list actually continues). Biggest reason is usually money - record company insists on the best 'performance'. You can have the best musicians ON, and they will still be asked to lip-synch or simply 'play along to it' - then the audio the studio uses is (or mostly) the album version. These days it is far more rare (finally!) - and the better the band, the more chance of them actually playing. :) Check out RUSH on 'the Colbert report'. :)

Leonard Paz It’ll be the TV producers decision, not the band. It was especially common in the 80s and 90s. I remember Mark Hollis from Talk Talk deliberately botched lipped synced performances to make it obvious they weren’t playing live, in protest.

Zanzibar Breeze Are you guys nuts? She is obviously singing live. Its well off the the studio vocals. And in a good way.
