At least they are still PLAYING LIVE no lyp sync no BS

[@terry85mar]

Why would they lip sync?

[@dathorndike4908]

Ian still has the voice. And he finally grew his hair long again! Awesome

Joking, right?

I love how Billy rubs a little more dirt on it live! Sounds awesome.

When I was a practicing alcoholic I used to really get loaded,and stoned,totally wrecked and blow the speakers out of the cabinets with this song.I am glad for those times and grateful to have survived and humbled that I never hurt or killed anybody.

I'm stealing the term "practicing alcoholic", maybe it is easier to explain to others. I'm reaching my 40s. No idea how I got past 25, but here I am. Long live THE CULT.

[@mitchio83]

Wish he would just sing it like the album!

[@coreymclernon]

I think this is a bit better than he has been. He was just mailing it in for a while.

[@rickr2029]

It's an incredibly hard song to sing like studio even when he was young.

[@reemclaughlin4260]

He’s ‘older’. I recently saw Pat Benatar, and she was still awesome, but those notes in ‘Promises in the Dark’ were lower. I’m happy these guy are still jamming. Excellent jam.

[@YtuserSumone-rl6sw]

I don't know if Ian himself has ever been able to sing a song even close as on the albums, unfortunately.

[@DIOSpeedDemon]

WHEN this video first came out in the 80's, I thought the lead singer was a First Nations Member. blew me away when i heard he was from Europe.!!! Great Singer, great song

[@jasonspencer1967]

Hi fans, The Cult still sounds amazing, My age is 50, if the world would just have known our 80's freedom! Love you all! 💪🤟🤘❤

[@pietop55]

This is a rockin' tune!!!

[@lesglover6515]

I wish Ian Asbury would follow the original theme of the CD songs. I mean as soon as he starts singing you know exactly who is singing he's got such an unbelievably distinctive voice. Still though, the Cult is awesome!!!!!!!

[@m.e.9974]

Cult rocks yesterday,today , tomorrow...forever.

[@ChrisP3000x]

I doubt he's ever been able to sing LIVE in his studio "cd" vocal range since around 1985. I saw them numerous times in the late 80s and 90s, and he had a hoarse, winded "the doors" voice. Still cool though. It's about the vibe with these guys.

[@carlosmartinez-ph5cw]

Lo vi en Argentina y su voz esta explotada...tararea la cancion y de cada una canta lo que puede pero no deja de ser mi banda favorita

Still as awesome as decades back.

Ian may seem sarcastic, but that's just him being human. Human being it is then . Message is clear, if you're alive and breathing, then live life live! Billy Duffy from Manchester. He sounds just like the record. The band is tight. It's The Cult. I'm getting a tattoo .

[@johnwatts8346]

i hate to say it, but i think his voice is blown? i mean i guess if youre doing a big long tour and gotta go out there for 2hrs a night for months on end, ya cant just let it rip the entire time or you wont finish the tour? so i spose hes singing within himself.

[@cherylmoranti3951]

[@MySundin13]

Ian having a rough nite.... This happens while on the road. Ive seen other new clips where he sounds great

[@drott150]

Alcohol/drugs + age + obesity + poor preparation = this. You can see the raw talent is still there, but they're quite obviously not willing to make the sacrifices to bring it back to life.

[@lewis7515]

It's a little sad to hear him do his best to avoid singing too much of his own song.... That voice is on the ropes and getting beat.

[@carlosrobles9449]

Went to their show in Phoenix, AZ last month, amazing show,! Sounds better live, too.

[@alana9832]

Some nights your voice just gives out when you're on the road!

[@MrMackTKnife]

He thought his mike was out and switched mikes to an inactive mike. His voice did not give out. He grabbed the wrong mike.

[@lewis7515]

@@MrMackTKnife Not sure what you mean? I'm referring to the performance _up until_ the mic failed - up to then, it was working well enough to broadcast his tambourine, and his entire short spoken interlude on top of it, without any interruption. So, up to the failure that becomes apparent at 4:12, if his voice appears to drop out strangely and repeatedly throughout song - and at times you'd expect to hear it - it's because he's not actually singing at those times: which is part of exactly what I'm mean?

[@Urko2005]

@@lewis7515 The mic was probably faulty and was giving intermittent drop outs until it totally died at 4:12.

Nobody paid money to hear a low-energy, tambourine tapping Ian Astbury play such an epic song with such a lame performance. The crowd sounded better unfortunately.

[@shanebailey9128]

Incredible band and live performers in the day! But it sounds like it’s time to make a start on those wood working projects they’ve been putting off.

[@WhoGitDaBiscuit]

Yeah. This is hard to watch. They sound like a garage band.

[@JulieT..]

Yeah, this is pretty lame. The tempo is way too slow and his voice is not as strong as it once was. He needs to just leave us with the good old performances, this is ruining it for me. It's called retirement and yes he should try it out.

[@fritzmuller8246]

I like this band so much , but it's time to throw in the towel . It's painful to watch all these old granddads trying to stay in the zone. Sex is a young persons game , at 50 plus the game is up .

[@fritzmuller8246]

@@TheMryokogeri Oh they do , they might not be having it yet , but they have the instinct . Old men in their later 50s have no business dressing up and pretending to be sexually relevant to a young audience or any for that matter . It's like watching an old woman dressed in a mini skirt and tight top with cellulite bulging out

[@ShadowWalkerPrime]

This is the epitome of going through the motions

[@combatgirl38]

I saw them in Phoenix with Metallica when I was 17 and was already a huge fan but I honestly don't remember anything about them opening. Then I caught them here in Minneapolis about 20 years ago and I was Pissed. Indeed drunk but also frustrated because Ian takes all of the fun of singing along by ad-libbing every single song so you can't get into a flow with any song they do. At least I know I'm not missing anything these days. I still like them but I'll never see them live again. I'm glad they still have a good live following and people enjoy them. There's too much Actual Garbage out there to hate on these guys.

[@ShadowWalkerPrime]

@@combatgirl38 This goes all the way back to the 80's. They have NEVER been a good live band but the music is phenomenal up until 'Ceremony'...... which sucked. Even 'Dreamtime' was a great album. Hard to say that about my favorite band but that's the way it is.
