When I first heard this song in 1986 I knew it would accompany throughout my life

[@joebell3220]

...why ever lose it* Lucky Man.

[@francogibson7177]

I hear you. First heard it in 1991 and its been a favourite song ever since.

[@hervedumont6226]

Same feeling from France

[@ltrevor237]

mois aussi

[@taitrobin5854]

Same Steve, lay in my bed listening to the album a hundred thousand times. It really was the song of my youth

[@simonmoore2380]

40 plus years on, they're looking surprisingly chipper. And I have to say, they sound as good as they did back then. Impressive.

[@LexCreeps]

Just bought a ticket to see them in LA next month; absolutely stoked! 🥲

[@miramar-103]

Love the Band, Love the audience ... hardly any iPhones visible ... just enjoying the performance .... old school ...

[@stephanegingras9666]

The underrated adjective is often used on KZbin but if there is a case that it's perfectly justified, it's with The Chameleons. I would buy the Blu ray of this performance in a heartbeat. Since hearing this band on the radio in 1983 I've been a fan and touched deeply with their melody, signature guitars and the excellent keyboards pads. The true hidden music gem of the 80's and still relevant today.

[@curiosa-ms3xe]

holy shit …. this is unbelievable … thanks for posting … saw them last year in Berlin and also in 1983 … one of my favourite bands …. highly underrated … will there be a release of the complete concert and if so when🎸👍😉🥳?

[@orientplacevideo]

It had never occurred to me that I might still, one day, experience this incredible masterpiece played live. Now I see this is possible.

[@robyourtime]

Best band out of Manchester... tears welling up

[@TheDubOrange]

@@robyourtime there are so many good bands from manchester, my favourite are the fall, but the chameleons will ever have a special place in my heart, for this song alone and there are many other wonderful songs by them.

[@clintdavies491]

for me, THE best band ever. and second skin is my fave song.BUT we all have our own choices. what a fucking band .

[@franciscocortijo6254]

[@taitrobin5854]

It s unbelievable but true, Ive listened to this song for forty years and never get tired of it. I even recently recorded a version of it with musician friends. Love it

[@TheDubOrange]

i could not agree more, one of the best songs ever!

[@justindavidson8177]

One of the best bands on the planet!

[@clintdavies491]

@@jacquelineiona1996 you have great taste

[@stefaniebokel7581]

And The Cure

[@VoltaireVI]

Timelessly beautiful music. Edit: In January 2025 they will tour in Germany.

[@barryworswick4639]

All I can say is Absolutely brilliant!!!

[@jacquelineiona1996]

I’m floored - excellent band then and now! Wished I was there ❤

[@mrmaldoon8362]

I love this too much. Fuck yes boys

[@robertpetre9378]

I remember when I heard them perform this song at the Concord 2 in Brighton and it was brilliant. Definitely one of my favourite songs by them.

[@jpsaint-jevin3998]

oh my god!!!! wonderfull

[@dirk586]

Großartig. Immer noch. Jeden Song schon so oft gehört und immer noch magisch.....und es tut gut Mark & Reg zusammen auf der Bühne zu sehen .

[@MrGaluso]

Thanks for posting! Saw them in Edinburgh, last year, was a great concert! Very underrated band, probably the most of the 80s.

[@iceman7669ify]

My favourite song ever just means so much to me .......the music and lyrics are just perfect........

[@TheDubOrange]

one of the best songs ever...feel very moved everytime i listen to it. great performance

[@precisioncyclingtraining8182]

Simply amazing. The most horrendously underrated band in the world. ❤

[@oosnice7348]

They still got it!!! Excellent work chaps

[@marconovelli66]

Goosebumps...as always! 😍

[@Lethargo]

Never getting tired of this Beatles-thing in the end. Cheers.

[@DirkFellhauer]

This sound and this band made me what I am…besides maybe two more, but this is pure magic.

[@theoryfish3491]

Following in the tradition of genius bands of the 90s that got swallowed up in 'Brit Pop'...I confidently predict that The Chameleons and Adorable will follow Slowdive into cult status with the Tik Tok generation...Cream will always rise to the top.

[@hervedumont6226]

Reg playing a strangely decorated telecaster...

[@666sdkfz]

Got tickets for their Oslo gig in January.....thrilled !!!! 🤩

[@mikethebike73]

Was a huge fan in the 80's but never saw them live back then. Going to see them next week in Lyon, can't wait 😊

[@proghead122]

Been watching this for the last few weeks, It's a great song anyway but the vibe from this show is brilliant.

[@putocardi]

a shame they are still not filling stadiums after almost 50 years... most influential post punk band

[@lucaarcangeli8086]

this is paradiso !!!!! 🙌🙌🙌🙌 Beautiful🙌🙌🙌🙌 I'm hoping for the full set !

[@jacquelineiona1996]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS

[@mapgeek6]

Saw the Chameleons live last year and it was one of the best live performances I've seen from any band live. I have my tickets for this year's show, and I cannot wait!

[@Pierrot35]

What a sound of guitars!!! This track is absolutely awesome, so many years after they are still there... so proud to see them in 1987, one of my best gig ever.

[@mozzerianmisanthrope406]

Saw them four times last year. Will be at least another two this year. Simply sublime.

[@ltrevor237]

fabuleux groupe fantastique Musique

[@joebell3220]

Super Highly Ultra underated UK Band+++

[@iwannadrinkfromyourwideeye2635]

WOW, they finally are getting the recognition that they deserve. One of the best bands from the 80s for me. They are the 80s sound that other famous bands basically ripped from their sound.

[@hervedumont6226]

Thank for sharing
