For the life of me I cannot understand how they're not more celebrated. For me they're THE BEST post punk and one of the best bands in general ever.

Tears what an incredible song always makes me reflect on my own life. Mark you and the band made magic happen on Strange Times. An album that has meant so much to me through my life. Thank You

Love hearing Mark's bass up close!!

“Strange Times” is,now and then,an absolute piece of art. And “Soul in isolation” simply one of the best songs ever. ❤️

This album still sends chills down my spine.30 years later.Best band ever

I've played Strange times for nearly 40 years and It still it blows my mind.

One of the greatest albums of all time and definitely in my top 10. I remember buying the album without knowing the band because I loved the artwork. It took half a dozen listens before I was consumed by its musical and lyrical brilliance (My life is a Barclays' loan now, and a mortgage to pay). Mortgage interest rates were up at 15% plus and this album perfectly captured the stress a lot of us were feeling. And Burgess had absolutely the right voice to make me feel that he was a kindred spirit. Fucking immense album.

'Here today' the first Chameleons track me and my brother ever heard, [approx 40 odd years ago] he taped it off the legendary John Peel radio show. We were hooked, and now I sit here in New Zealand as a 60 year old and bro is in China both a long way from Belfast , N.Ireland . Mark Burgess lyrics mean more than ever now in these times.

best band in the world!

Pour moi... Le meilleur groupe de tous les temps. Mark Burgess est un auteur compositeur interprète unique, d'une force percutante magique et d'un impact inoubliable sur nous... Cette musique, ce groupe, et surtout... TOI... Mark... I'LOOOOVE'YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fantastic band strange times is up there with the best 80s albums ⭐

Yo los he visto 5 veces en directo y espero una sexta. Desde València (España) larga vida a "THE CHAMELEONS".

Oh God I still love that brilliant band, I discovered them in the eighties , there are amazing

Can't wait to see them in Montreal on August 12, 2024 - I missed them in October 2023 ;-)

Saw them wednesday. They played only 2 Songs from ST. But it was completely obvious that with all the masterworks, souls in isolation with its weird Structure was the best. Suddenly, pure Transzendence was here, on earth.

Thank you for this! Great camera discipline, stellar video and the sound is incredible for a phone. My favorite band ever, and well captured. Damn, that was good.

That was f'n awesome!!!! One of my favorite albums from the 80's. Definitely withstands the test of time. I really can't believe I got to watch the Chameleons play Strange Times live ...during these strange times.THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

one hell of a concert love love love it thank you Mark and HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU on MAY 11

cada dia amo mas esta banda, su musica es un portal a los 80'. thank you for the music to my soul

I wish they they went on to U2 stardom but it's so cool that we the real fans (who know how good they are), have them to ourselves. So good, 🥂 cheers.

Catch the upcoming shows and you will feel the rock of the late 80’ into 90’s, this show is awesome! The singer/bass player blew me away!

He signed my fan and the bellows vinyl.. top bloke.

Wonderful! This album was astounding when it came out.

Plus de 30 ans , j'adore

wow love it STRANGE SO MANY TIMES LOVE THE CHAMELEONS UK

How can such epiphany inducing rock genius be relagated to a small club with people nonchalantly chatting away? Strange times indeed. I would take this performance over any overpriced, sponsor endorsed O2 arena shitehawk band any day. Brilliant album, beautifully played. Long live Mark Burgess

Real music by real musicians.

I was in Madrid in this tour. It was so nice! Awesome! An Incredible band ,remarkable album, so nostalgia!!!

Still sound amazing

What a wonderful paradigma .. long life to british post punk music !!!!!

Excellent!! They sound amazing!!

Imagine watching the Chameleons and then eating the best tacos in the world.

Simply brilliant

The more I watch the more I wish had been there

Os juro que están tocando una parte musical dentro de mi que nadie toca.... me.encantan

Thank you for posting! My favoutite post punk band (not the initial formation ..); but Mark Burghess somehow remind us. The sound is not perfect but anyway, like Mark said: "we're living in strange times" ...

SWAMP THING 😭 🙏

Noche inolvidable 🖤

Was soll ich sagen....Ihr werdet immer besser....geiler Sound....we see us in Germany 2020...

fantastic 🔥 🥵 ❤❤❤❤❤

This is great

You guys need to do this again like right now !!!!! Please come to Houston, Texas !!!!!!!!

Most UNDERRATED BAND EVER ;;;;;GREETINGS FROM FLANDERS !!!!!!!!!!!

I don't know why this Band was never more popular, they were / are fantastic! Never got much air play here across the pond in Canada unless you were lucky enough to be able to tune into an alternative radio station (cfny-fm in Toronto). I actually had no idea you were still kicking around! Right On guys.... Keep it up... maybe one day I'll get lucky enough to see you play LIVE!!!!!

Altijd onderschat maar voor mij the best forever.

This is incredible! Thank you! I'm in the U.S. Not sure I'll be able to catch it in person.

Two people that absolutely can get away with being the only remaining original member of the band touring: Peter Hook (and the light), and Mark Burgess. Reg, Dave and John are irreplaceable but this incarnation is a reasonable emulation; they sound great! Funny, both are bassists too.

Sublime

Mark Burgess = OZZY Ozboure.... perform live ..100%

Epic!

Vi amo

Very good, even if the drummer is still miles away from John Lever, thank you for the upload

Great band. Tempestuous career. Interesting and near-great side projects (or post-breakup-pre-reformation projects). 5 min ago just discovered there's a 2xLP release of the 2019 tour (which I never knew about to begin with, typical of the ever changing always under the radar nature of the band). This could be good. I'll probably watch it. But damn, John is gone and Reg & Dave aren't here. Always a shaky proposition. I just hope Dave/Reg/John's family are getting properly compensated.

This album is a litmus test for the world. If you can't engage in the lyrics and the message; the sonic guitars and the driving beats... well I guess you can go back to listening to Ms. Swift.

Were there line up changes?

Is it a 2,40m bass guitar ?

Pourquoi ce groupe n'a jamais eu le succès qu'il aurait dû avoir ?

You people are commenting only Mark is performing so why call it Chameleons Uk and not vox. Is that not Dave Fielding on the far right next to Mark?

Birdy

Mark when Russia coming ?

Burgee said Chameleons but... isn't this Chameleons Vox ?

Even better than the real thing ...

Bop ba dop baaa! or whatever

not The Chameleons mate , change the title

Our Post-punk Sgt. Pepper, well done, very well done.

Ian Curtis succession

This isn't The Chameleons, it's a tribute band called "Chameleons Vox"

As we say in Spain : "!!!!! Musicon !!!!!"

oh this is great like coincidence but for real this is post punk unworthiness forever / my screen blinked

I just don't know why things like this happen. That is Mark Burgess. This is not the chameleons. I know John is gone but Dave and Reg are still alive. Using the name is just poor form. I love you mark but theres a reason you feel uneasy. You know you shouldn't be doing this. But since you are heres a tip. Both guitars need to be equally boosted to the top of the mix. If your vocals are louder than either of the guitars the songs lose their depth and substance. Its not an ego thing,the songs are constructed so that the guitars leave room for your vocals but the weight of the music was shouldered by Dave and Reg . the soul of the music lives in your words and john pushed the whole thing down the road with persistent sympathetic percussion. You are singing at the top of your lungs, but the guitars are being suppressed and The reason you always sang these songs with all you had was because you were flanked by two brilliant guitarists who knew they each had to unleash one another's sound in order to give the songs life. If youre going to call yourself the chameleons, at least you could do yourself a favor and realize what made your band so unprecedented and irreplaceable. I saw you guys at spit in boston. One of the high points in my life. I was very conscious of the fact that I might never see you again. It was exquisite. Turn up the fucking guitars or go home. Soul in isolation sounds like a wind up toy trapped in its original packaging. I would go on but I have to stop the video. God bless you mark! I hope you read this.
