I can't see how anyone could not like this.

Please forgive me for my stupid comment. Id had a drink, on a bad day. And, going through my own stuff. The song is 'beautiful', to me.

@@melissabrume7515 same.

This is amazing.

@melissabrume7515 Not stupid at all. i hate how people criticize everything too. it's the downside of social media. Some people want to ruin others enjoyment. Maybe it makes them feel better about their own lives.

True ! There is something "special" . Like the Doors in the 60's .

They are, dear

Far from the band's more commercial Bohemian song.

I like the original better

Check out their live version " mohammed last . fm"

?

I had no idea what lysergic meant. What a fantastic word. Beautiful comment.

@@miamonan9627 Thanks. Nice of you to say so.🐪

both main men went on massive ego trips that are still going to this day ! I myself would say old BJM and Dandy's epic stuff now stuff hoe hum

Haunting is the word

Even if, most aren't 😮

🤟

Mike Turner this interpretation is brilliant

Mike Turner Muhammad had doubts in the religion and beliefs of his people but we was in no doubt that what he saw and experienced in the cave was real.The Meccans ( Muhammad’s people) had a religion which was a aging form of the monotheistic religion of Abraham (a one that existed before Judaism) and it had partially sunk through ages into polytheism and paganism until the day of Muhammad but some features of the original monotheistic religion remained. Muhammad’s first encounter with Gabriel was not described by Muhammad as a dream... he described it and felt it as real. the angels first words to him was a verse of the Quran which orders him to “read” (after the angel) in the name of the lord who created (mankind)....Muhammad (probably in shock) replied back ( i am not someone who knows how to read) . The angel squeezed him until he got tired and then released him and repeated this act 3 times. Muhammad was then able to speak after the angel the rest of the verses until the end of the first sura in Quran. He was then released by the angel to go home. Muhammad when released went home shaking and scared of what he had experienced and saw but it appeared all real to him not a dream.

@@mohamedkaddah306 Wow.

@@mohamedkaddah306 many Meccans were monophysite nasranis (early Christians) who were monotheistic but did not consider jesus christ to be God, but rather the holy son of God, a human. furthermore, Zoroastrians were monotheistic way before Arabs.

Mohammed didnt dream anything, it all was real.

their 97 tour in small clubs you wouldnt believe the realms they would reach

@@JackSquat1 i wish I'd seen that

you bust our balls with your religious crap...its a song....

You can't say certainly when it comes to heaven and hell, we're not ones to judge or to know.

Mohammad is an Arabic story. He did not live ever.

Mohammad and his friends killed dozens of innocent people.

the opening is from the film "Lawrence of Arabia". No direct connection to Mohammed, sorry😅

@@christianhoffmann8607 thank you...

I think is prophet Muhammad and us.

if an Arab were to make this song he would be persecuted for sure, the song is so beautiful and respectful.

Wasn't his wife the first follower?

Actually a lot of Jordan

that's very interesting.. :-)

It's the same chord progression

The Living God - misperceived - Azathoth

it's not there..thanks for listening..

youtube-dl renders that pointless

WinChun78 thank you!

Thanks . You're right.

it's music

Wht you mean about mohamed

no, live in studio (black session)..

True .. just similar sounds .. same album so it makes sense.. I love those songs equally so it makes sense lol. 😅

Certainly too similar to be a coincidence. Shame as I love these guys. That being said I now have Talk Talk on my list too!

:o

Ok, you have the primary Em - D - A chord progression, plodding tempo and same mood but other than that it’s not the same song. John Cope has a lot more going on in the way of harmonic tension and progression and the vocal melody is totally different. In general, Courtney’s influences are obvious but he has always had his own voice and, the similarities notwithstanding, has produced a uniquely creative and prolific body of work. In short, he has confidently and unabashedly taken all his influences and made them his own. Here, the thematic melody played by the guitar, the meandering trumpet and especially the vocal melody set this tune apart. I love Talk Talk and their song but personally I like Courtney’s melody better over these changes (strictly personal preference), and the falsetto on the 13 Tales version is just fucking stellar.

@@jamestcallahanphotographer All that may be.....but it's still a rip off.

​@@robertjones5258 It's very easy to sit in the peanut gallery and issue shallow judgements like, "it's a rip-off," without having done significant similar type of work or fully understanding the issue. The correct term would be a "derivative work." A court of law may indeed find this to be such. That would be for them to decide and we don't know if Courtney licensed the right to create a derivative work. My guess is probably not and there could be some liability there but I'm sure Capitol's legal team looks out for this type of exposure. Indeed, Courtney's own creative contributions to the original (the aforementioned vocal melody and theme, among others) are copyrightable within a derivative work itself, and they are certainly copyrighted by him in the form of his composition. For our purposes here you may want to refer to the following: www.legalzoom.com/articles/what-are-derivative-works-under-copyright-law. The fact is, rock chord progressions and even the 'feel' of a song have been recycled again and again over decades. It's kind of hard not to when using the standard Rock chord progressions and voicings on the guitar, but it can also be intentional. Since Mr. Taylor-Taylor seems to be more of a conceptual artist it wouldn't surprise me. There are many examples where songwriters have allegedly plagiarized other artists - George Harrison, Jimmy Page and others. Whether they meant to or not, only they know (or knew, in the case of Mr. Harrison). But we still get to enjoy the music, regardless (I mean, you're in here obviously listening to the songs, too...is that just to pick out the "rip-offs" and pass judgement in your omnipotence?) and give credit for creativity where it's due. Also, as I mentioned previously, the Dandys song only borrows the base elements of the Talk Talk song, the latter of which has a more involved chord progression and arrangement. But there are a lot of factors we don't know here. Still, Mr. Taylor-Taylor has had a successful 25-year career as the main songwriter for a popular band on a major label with a dedicated worldwide fan base. I think he's got a bit more talent than...what's the old term...a "rip-off artist." And with that, I'm done here.
