Amazing

@@Somnivore7 p

I know exactly what you mean

pretty good covers

b 52 wheezer

what did you imagine them as?

What were they supposed to look like? Must be young kids discovering

A X I always imagined them to be real emo looking fellas but they are just a bunch of average middle age folk lol

@@JohnDoe-xf8ew I imagined the lead singer as having some arm tattoos and being fit and ripped and to have a more masculine looking face. I first heard of the Pixies by hearing David Bowie rave on and on and on about them in an interview. After hearing the amazing Doolittle album and the intensity of the lead singer's vocals, I wasn't expecting him to be such a normal looking guy

Yeah - it's not that I had specific expectations, I just hadn't expected 'normal'. They look like an office's I.T. department on casual friday

Dolittle sounds as a 90's Alt. Rock LP in 1989 and thath make it soo good.

Great

De qué objetividad me hablas? Tus comentarios claramente están dirigidos con ofensa hacia los demás, evidenciando tus preferencias. Uno de los puntos fundamentales de la objetividad es ser imparcial. 😑 Quién te crees tú para inferir las capacidades cognitivas de una persona basándote en sus gustos musicales? Las capacidades cognitivas de una persona no se miden a través de sus gustos, por si no lo sabías. Quién te crees para cuestionar los ídolos de los demás? Quién te crees para definir lo que es arte o no lo es? "El arte no lo defines tú...." Y sobre todo, quién te crees tú para decidir lo que hacen bien o hacen mal otras personas? Dios, eres tu? N0!, ún s 0 b 3 r b i 0 & 4 r r 0 g 4 n t ę, pero sobrę todo, aquí queda plasmado que ęr3s ûn pędant3. Te he visto en algunos otros comentarios y además tienes aprox 70 en este canal.... Quién busca llamar la atención? 🤔 Tanto conocimiento en una persona tan brût4, que en vez de aportar solo viene a humillar. "Mírenme, soy un erudito del arte, alimenten mi ego... 😒"

underrated comment

Being underrated is underrated.

Sooo many underrated comments😁😁😁

Please underrate me, NOW!

He really does

@@alexandergunn5143 I know, I m surprised he didn't stay with the music more.

🙃🙂

hhhaaaahhaahhaaaa

He also does a great job of fronting The Cure minus the makeup in the video for ‘A Forest.’

Me too!

kim deal has been living in mine since the late 80s lol. dam that woman was something else!

Fortunately, you have a lot of room up there

​@@squirrelbutler2119Meow! Put your nails back in, dear.

Boom, there it is!!@@draoi99

I don't love em. Can't get into the vocals. Too goofy.

That's funny and I'm right with ya, hard to understand

Deal and Black were essentially the same person so that's the core of their issues for sure

I don't really like the pixies that much. Just a few songs that I like

Easy. They have a female in the band xDDD

True. Odd.

To be honest I don't think they're underrated. Everyone who knows thinks they're great. Bowie was a huge fan

Calling somebody “underrated” is as meaningless as saying they’re “interesting”. It’s the cliche of loser commenters.

@@chasbodaniels1744 the hell is your problem

PIXIES album DOOLITTLE, sold over 1,450,000 copies. Underrate this figure, Mike.

Not underrated in the slightest. They are regarded as one of the most influential bands of their era.

Anyone who knows anything about alternative music knows The Pixies

​@@Nathan-gd7xq underrated in terms of sale statistics. Maybe?

they didnt even buy the instruments, they found them in the street somewhere

@@darrianweathington1923 Buy.

David Copson autocorrect.

Fuck yes they did. Marry me Kim deal!

Sometimes you gotta splurge a little.

Pixies: we don't do vids. And they resisted so long

Pixies?...Drama?...Nahhhhhhh!

I'm glad Kim got sober.

Fat cone heads! i love it!

fat coneheads is the best description ever

She couldn't even play bass when she auditioned. She turned up without a bass and still got the gig.

Kim did play guitar though. She wasn't a complete neophyte.

@@mattbockbrader2140 That's true! It sounds better with that part omitted, though. :)

@@mixispid Wasn’t that because she was the only one who turned up?

Have you seen her lately? She is now the big deal.

I'd argue Gigantic did that more but Pixies in general shaped the 90's

One aspect of the 90s.. such an overrated band. This song is alright i guess.

@@LewdScoff I think you mean underrated

William M. It sounds like the Velvet Underground Cora 1968 to us oldies. Still good.

@@malcolmlewis5860 You acting like Pixies and Velvet Underground don't have the same fans

In any event, the open mouth schtick is very surreal and funny.

i def can see why...its kinda stupid...dont make a video then

@@BuMp2RuN Bands are often forced into it as promotion for the album. Music videos are basically 3 minute ads, as Zappa put it.

@@ketansajwan8071 nirvana also had a music video for in bloom (sub pop), 3 diff version of in bloom (nevermind), smells like teen spirit, and come as you are as music videos.....i luv them but kurt understood what a music video meant to his success...and if you are going to tell me kurt didnt want success...that is a lie..

@@BuMp2RuN I think they were actually talking about this kzfaq.info/get/bejne/euCCdL1i2rmRcaM.html it's not a music video but a performance in which the band had to mime to a pre_recorded track. In protest, the band completely butchered the performance and mimed really badly and Kurt sang in a weird voice. It makes sense in context.

I wish I could forget things on command in general so I could watch/hear/do them again etc.

Yep

I'm listening to it for the first time now

This is happening to me right now

@Hunter Vonnegut no

truth

Agreed

That's bad ass

I'm hot for the teacher..lucky!!

Did she say "I'm amazed"?

What is it with art teachers playing music in class?

That's great! But I think that your teacher forgot to teach you to use capital letters, grammar, and punctuation. 🤪

That and if I remember they didn't want to put this song in but producer said it would be good. Don't quote be on that tho I'm just some kid on the internet

Call me stupid, but the b@$$ player chick looks like singer from the Breeders?

@@the4bidden142 hey you're right! like how the drummer from nirvana looks like that guy from the foo fighters. weird.

@@loverobotsinc good call, so it's true about the bass player?

@@the4bidden142 she is.

Looked like he was trying not to laugh too

I noticed that too!

Or Roll with it by Oasis

@@rgvchris Or Nobody Else by Rikki Morris

yeah, like ac/dc

Apparently they put music before video. How bizarre !!!

Ya i don't care about their videos i love the music.

REM’s first video effort was called “REM Succumbs.” They’d broken big without MTV and likely thought videos were self indulgent and stupid. Vids were weird but good-think Stipe’s lyrics in pictures.

The video itself is a protest.. it was intentionally bad

:0

oh yeah lol

read this comment just after seeing this lol

mouth wide open mouth wide open mouth wide open like i was at the dentist

yes

Idk mate they sound a hell of a lot like the violent femmes and vice versa

Don't get mathematical on me now.

@@angusc5054 um, no

@@JJessePeterson yeah

@@angusc5054 I guess you haven't listened to much of either band then

Wow....

Wan wah wah waaaahhh. Lmao

Deal or no Deal?

Dulcimerist I love a great Deal

Zhafira Vreys Deal with it

Still underrated. I've seen them 3 times so far... Joe's still got it!

absolutely. he and the rest of the band were too creative for their time

When I heard this song as a teenager, the riff just seemed silly to me, but I was also in a very different place when it comes to guitar playing, I was going through my virtuoso phase so the simplicity of a riff like this just felt flat. The older I get and more I listen, this riff easily moves into my top 5 favorites. It's playful, driving, a little bluesy, and dressed in the traipsing of surf rock sensibility. Joey's musical palate is rich and seemingly evergreen, their new stuff is still pretty damn good.

thanks!

Appreciated. Some of us have known them for many decades : D

i thought it was family school

I used to see them at Green Street Station in Boston. On one hand it was like a practice space-10 people in the audience and I lived near there. On the other it could have been a VU or Cop Shoot Cop (NYC Williamsburg loft. Same Dope cheaper. Rough place. Just for saying I got last on foot in Bedford Stuyvesant and wound up in Brownsville people could tell I was ghetto but I am White but not what white people are like. Old junky asks "You wouldnt be from Boston by chance? Yeah. Oh. Tells people "Boston has ghetto poor White Folk. That why he's nervous but not punk scared." I wanted drugs and he ran a hit house-not a Gallery-and its dark now and he helped me score and said stay until morning-WE don't wander away from our block. Puerto Rican girl cooked food and I end up fucking her all night. Next day she gives me half bottle of Kwell and says "use it right now and they should be gone but I'll walk you to the way out too.."Lower East Side. Attorney St. 300 year old tenement that I stopped paying rent on a year ago. Nobody does but me and some woman started and keep getting 6 month stays." She knew the building. "Where did ALL the cats come from?" I started grabbing cats and set up the basement and they were now running the hallways-other people were down with it but it was odd-they formed a functional colony and they-some just acknowledged me others thought I was some Cat Alien-all this cat kill around my door. It worked though. Rat's stayed hidden and I knew cats can live on insects and water on grass and leaves in the morning. The Hit House guy-Dale said I was welcome no questions. I didn't get crabs. One day I stopped by and the people were really sad and Dale took me aside. She'd been murdered-real sick shit. I still haven't cried since 10 yo but I really wanted too. I couldnt which made everything more depressing. One woman said "You're half dead yourself you're Survival Material. I said I was going to make one of those pathetic Shrines because it was all I could do (dude turned himself in 3 hours afterwards-they never would have found her for months. I saw photos. Guy hung himself in Rikers after admitting to 2 more. The Pixies were actually found by A&R btw and purposely kept quiet so they could be a NYC band (that could be myth but who I heard it from is LEGITIMATE. Kurt was from Aberdeen which wasn't talked about until way later.) YIKES KAT-shitting up YT comments one post at a time with pointless bullshit. I met Lou Reed twice-2nd time he approached me-"Remember me?" I still laugh about that. I also forget he's dead all the time for just long enough for it to suck when I remember. Wouldnt you die for something pretty?

John😆😆😆thank you!!!

Totally. Kim is a boss here with her bass

was that bass line from a beatles song? sounds familiar

Best rack too

AND me and my goats.

@@PastaImposter that's the allure

I'm right there with you Mandy.

What kind of Deal did they get on that bass?

That bassist

+Człowiek Drzewo exactly, i was searching this comment!

THOUGHT THIS TOO

+James Collins u be everywhere I go with a comment about Peacock Affect XD

xD

LOOOOOOL!!!!! I was thinking the exact same thing. The Beatles sprang to mind with that guitar twang.

Hey you should look up a band called The Doublejumps if you like The Pixies

Thank you :)

Nuhun

just like the velvet underground

Zachary Freis That's right, just like The V.U. There was a famous statement about that: "While the first Velvet Underground album may have sold only 30,000 copies in its early years, "everyone who bought one of those 30,000 copies started a band.". Or this one by Gary Smith: "I've heard it said about The Velvet Underground that while not a lot of people bought their albums, everyone who did started a band. I think this is largely true about the Pixies as well."

I think that The Hollies might argue with you about ‘Creep’ but other than that, you’re right.

Yes. I've always noticed that the melody that Thom York sings in the bridge is almost exactly the melody in The Air That I Breathe

damndirtyape63 They were actually sued by The Hollies. And now Lana Del Rey has released a song that sounds familiar too.

:-)

not recommended for anyone that knows you don't make words by just having your mouth open in an o shape

+Ryan Reed Fun fact lad, this music video was made during the time when lip-syncing of artists was a huge controversy. So what The Pixies decided to do is make fun like crazy out of it and to be honest it's an amazing video. PS, I recommend you watch Nirvana live where they lip-synced, now that's what I would call frikken hilarious!

+We Assassins Creed! Yeah when nirvana trolled the fucking public that day

+We Assassins Creed! that....f

+Ryan Reed Wait, so the lyrics aren't "AAAAAHHHHHHHHAAAHHHHHHHAAAHHHHHUUHUHUHUHUA"?

Hi I Recommend checking out an indie track and video Called 'Looking into the Mirror By Robert Nix

Love this story. I'm a March 16th baby (1991), and loved this song growing up.

you know it's about a drug dealer, right?

@@rafaelcerveglieri Girlfriends need drugs too brother

@@andyspazchrist9832 ok, you've got a point here

@@rafaelcerveglieri No, it's about a hobo cracking his skull in an earth quake. "I know the nervous walkin'/ I know the dirty beard ha-a-angs. Out by the box car, waiting. / Take me away..." "Big shake to the land that's falling down. / ... Fall down and break my crown." It doesn't say he died, though it's also debatable whether he's seeing his rescuers and/or an angel at the "Here Comes Your Man" part.

@@101Volts hey, tahnks! read about it yesterday, he said in during an interview, right? :)

Have a good day too

lmfao

lol "synch"

@@benjicardenas5607 GMT

A friend of mine who had moved to North Carolina in the late '80s sent me a cassette with this song on it. It was my introduction to the band. I think that made me always think of NC as kinda into good music.

SCREAMING thanks Damon ;)

claro que no... dame una prueba

lol same here man. i read somewhere they did this just hanging their mouths open as a protest because some executive at NBC demanded they use a recorded track rather than actually play live when they came on the show.

When I first heard this, the chord progression of the chorus reminded me of "Sugar, Sugar." I mean that as a compliment.
