King Crimson - Matte Kudasai (The Noise, Live At Fréjus 1982)

[@rafanj824]

I just love how Fripp is in the dark, so serious and mysterious. And Belew almost laughing when he did seaguls sounds, mounting a landscape. So cool.

[@def1ghi]

I saw Fripp solo a long time ago in a tiny club: a wall of electronics and his guitar to fill the room with shapes and colors and scents, all made of sounds. Amazing.

Stage lights are frickin BRIGHT, yo

[@peteraddison4371]

... You've got living imagination there, def ...

[@JosueMiguelSanchezLeonor]

I find this, one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard :")

[@BenDavidson-pm6uy]

Me too

[@Chuckles..]

Am always touched by the atmosphere of this song. I know Discipline gets all the attention but of the Discipline era, Beat is my favorite. Three Of A Perfect Pair indeed, amazing era for KC.

[@dustypanschmexual5447]

My favorite era of King Crim!! I love Indiscipline, and Neil and Jack and Me. All of Beat Is fantastic!!

[@AndreySloan_is_a_cnut]

I was introduced to Crimson via Three - it’s still an absolute favorite (Robert, something from that one on the (hopefully) next tour?). The slap bass on Sleepless was mind expanding, and Matte Kudasai is just sublime. So sorry I missed Belew on tour a year or so age. 😢

[@henrykmusial5645]

Its mean "please wait"

[@dago3336]

what a comeback!

[@robertgoleniowski4188]

I like listening to this song just before I go to sleep. It somehow gets you in the “rest mode”.

[@aallusion]

me too man!

[@victordunavent9477]

beautiful sad song, not long enough...thank you Bill, still my favorite drummer all these years

[@svenjansen2134]

The prettiest things last the shortest.

[@AssociationAdmirer]

This has been one of my favorite King Crimson songs from the first time I heard it. The textures are so delicate, you feel like a single wrong note could ruin a rendition of the song.

[@jasmadams]

Absolutely, there's a spell that's woven. I love so many songs from this era of KC, but this one has a magic all its own.

[@andrewgay778]

Even though he's known mostly as a guitar player - what a great voice!. Spot on pitch, powerful and nuanced too. Adrian Belew is amazing. The other-worldly sounds he creates on his guitar are so unique and unbelievable- and his voice so unique.

[@sardonicus76]

It’s uncanny how he sounds exactly like David Byrne. When Talking Heads were having some pretty serious creative control issues in the early eighties, Tina Weymouth and Chris Frantz secretly tried to oust David Byrne from the band and replace him with Adrian Belew. But after they’d recorded some new songs at Compass Point Studios in the Bahamas, Chris and Tina refused to give full credit to AB for some of the material that he’d written. Belew was understandably upset by this and when Robert Fripp asked him to front King Crimson, he didn’t hesitate to bolt for greener pastures.

[@TheTurkishKebabExperience]

@@sardonicus76 Kinda sad that there was quite a lot of conflict in the band, the only neutral member was probably Jerry. Sucks how the band ended, although I like what Belew brought to the band during live shows, brilliant live performer.

[@georgebennett1242]

Belew is such a singular talent. Phenomenal.

[@urabadperson]

Jimi Hendrix 3.0 is what he is.

[@BenDavidson-pm6uy]

​@@urabadpersonthat's great

[@peteraddison4371]

... and a very sneaky but historically important steal that was indeed by Mr Fripp from talking heads, that was. & The Power TreeOh-yeah-!!! ...

[@TheTurkishKebabExperience]

​@@peteraddison4371Didn't Belew leave because the tension between members, especially David and Chris with Tina, was rising?

[@MichaelVLang]

KC was capable of so many moods. This tune has always moved me, the melancholy and texture.

[@salviadivinorum1762]

Adrian with the 'seagulls', this was a treat a few times during the Pier concerts on the Hudson River, Manhattan, esp/ with the sun setting behind the crowd. It always seemed like a blues song but with a whole new approach. 'Walking On Air' I think is even a lil better, amazing.

[@pruntyportraits]

Fripp and Belew were such a brilliant compliment and contrast to each other. I bet when people first heard about their partnership they thought it wouldn't work

[@urabadperson]

Wrong. This album was immediately well received by the higher intellect community. Sadly, it stayed in that culture and not expanded beyond it.

[@creamtangerine85]

@urabadperson the person you're replying to didn't say that people disliked it, they simply said that they imagined that many people's initial reactions were ones of skepticism when hearing about them working together, which I think is fair.

[@joaocalladomusico]

One of my favourites from the Belew era. And your text is great!

[@peterresetz1960]

Imagine that KC would produce love songs.

[@bAgRiMoIrEsS.4]

This is a double great song by King Crimson ❤️❤️ the lyrics are sublime.

[@BenDavidson-pm6uy]

Among the finest ballads ever written. Beautiful.

[@bencarter6702]

What a sublime description of personality through music. Thanks Dr Bruford!

[@dth5283]

That chord at 0:14 automatically makes this version 100 times better to me! That chord alone is one of the greatest single sounds I have ever heard!!!

[@Chavez_Soria]

what chord is it

[@dth5283]

I have no clue! It’s the second chord that Fripp plays. I believe he added an extra note to that chord from the original, or he altered the notes of the first chord

[@Chavez_Soria]

​@@dth5283is it a bar chord it looks like a bar chord

[@Chavez_Soria]

​@@dth5283it looks like he's playing a g sharp minor I think

[@oeggebb1801]

@@Chavez_Soria i think its just B major

[@godoisw]

My God, this song reminds me of my youth ... 15yo already enjoying king crimson all the way.

[@kathowed]

So deliciously good! Just four blokes on a stage, all making sounds with familiar instruments and with plenty of breathing space, yet it sounds so rich; like you couldn't squeeze anything more in. And thank you for your description, BB; as always, it adds to my understanding and appreciation, while filling my head with more questions. And we like that.

[@damando6631]

Belew's voice here is absolutely beautiful

[@richardgleichmann7671]

I fortunately had the privilege to be at Merriwether Post Pavillion (outside of DC), to hear and see this... The Discipline album performed.. about 81, or (maybe 82).. The simple stage set was deeply colored lighting on the backdrop curtain.. It changed to a different color but you never noticed when. What an experience.. My mother (who was a harpist), liked this song...🎶👍 Thank you for posting this.. (and for the memory..).😌❣️

[@netuno60]

It's a beautiful song from this fantastic band.

[@russellmardling7156]

Great voice! My favourite Crimson era.

[@phneutro87]

best moment of king crimson

[@muffinman4353]

Great song, Legendary band...."Long Live King Crimson".

[@luciemichalke6358]

I remember my first concert of King Crimson. In Prague probably 92? Not sure now, but was onmore. And voice of Adrian....like a clearist water from mountains, uncredible, absolutely beautiful

Hola Bill, muchas gracias por el aporte. Que decir de este King Crimson, la rompieron en los 80'. Renovados y ajustados a la época, como ninguna otra banda que venía de los 60" y/o 70". Saludos desde ciudad de Canelones, Uruguay.

[@lmp9726]

Gorgeous rendition.

[@svenjansen2134]

I knew the middle pick up of a strat sounds nice but Mr. Sir Adrian Belew takes it to another level. And what a song! Those 'simple' melodies are the prettiest.

[@marcanglin7127]

Except that isn't a Strat but a Music Man version of one.

[@hamupinhere]

​@@marcanglin7127 It's actually not a Music Man either, but an Ibanez Blazer.

[@cybore213]

Bill, I just love the descriptions you include with these videos! The music is pretty good, too.

[@adenihil]

Forever beautiful & brilliant. Thanks Bill. ❤

Super cool the best and liserghic time ❤ sistiex was the most crrative and improvidtion time

[@nathanmeans1548]

Certainly one of my favorite KC songs... and such a contrast to my other faves like Fractured, Car Food, and Discipline.

[@TheFlutecart]

Dang, awesome.

[@rembeadgc]

Beautiful song and performance.

[@peterresetz1960]

Seagulls, elephants, and dinosaurs. What is next animal Adrian will create next ? Oh wait. I forgot the rhinoceros. Mr. Bill, I like what you did for the rhythm. Laid back, reserved, with just the right amount of accents.

I always liked this song

[@andreasbreitwieser1449]

With discipline came a big cloud of warm, delicious and innovating inspiration on this planet, touched a lot of us and left an energetic ball of something in all the hearts which were ready for this........Mr. Bruford, I'm thankful i shared this time with your melodic drumming and were also pleasured by Mr. Fripp, Mr. Belew and Sir Levin.

Who's Heydiodread?

For me this song evokes images of Manzanar et al. I don't think that was the intent, but the melody is so mournful it seems apropos.

He sounds like David Byrne

[@gwonya]

And Paul Buchanan

[@GCKelloch]

I know it's adolescent to analyze song lyrics, but I assume it's about an elderly woman in a nursing home in the US just waiting for the end. Thoughtful sentiment.

[@svenjansen2134]

In my fantasy he's in Japan on tour and sending long notes thru bbs or fax and she's in the US waiting, falling asleep in a chair and the system is slow so on both their screens it says MATTE KUDASAI. And it's raining 80s neon pink.

[@lucasanfilippo5370]

This is the First Song Adrian was able to Attack lyrics and Melody to.. the First Pieces he and Robert worked, were the tipical hard Guitar compositions like Frame by Frame and Adrian was having an hard time because he didnt get yet, how to build a Song around that.. then, Robert came with these old chords, and everything changed.. the song is about him being far away from America and his wife, and him saying "Matte Kudasai" to her.. in that particolar moment Adrian was missing his wife so much, because of the musical difficulties..

[@SEE.E.O]

im so so sorry but it sounds like someone left a dr beat on
