Propaganda: Dream within a dream - "Outside World Tour' 1985

[@soula48]

This is what the 80s really sounded like if you knew where to go...still play the LP a lot. and I'm 61 now!

[@frenchenstein]

My local music shop introduced Propaganda to me in about 1985, Sphere Records in Winsford I think it was; excellent advice 👌🏽

[@3DPeter]

the whole concert was a masterpiece from trevor horn, because every single note or sound, was played exactly the same as the studio versions, and i never ever seen such outstanding performance before. That's why i think that this was the best live concert, in the entire history of modern music.

[@0The0Web0]

Same. Saw them in Zürich back then. Amazing live performance

[@andiblinco347]

What a band, great music, great live, one of the best!

[@liamwilson42]

Susanne Freytag is absolutely stunning in this video

[@terfteeps]

Liam Wilson her vocal could be louder tho! Still love it!

[@toonlad66]

Fantastic version of an amazing song, and still love Suzanne freytag 😊

[@paulelliott3220]

Suzanne is an absolute goddess Sounds awesome and it's a brilliant version of song Fantastic and Claudia looks damn gorgeous too Brilliant stuff and got to find a copy of this live material

[@m5st5gr5s]

a goddess from the Wallhala i agree So feminine and cold

[@chubbylegend]

My fave Propaganda song, probably my fave ZTT song, but you could tell that transferring this to a live setting would be problematic. It's so chock-full of wonder and hugeness in the studio, elements of it would be shed when played on stage. Never mind, this still transports me to a warm place. I love it unconditionally.

[@meribast]

+chubbylegend They are performing, rather than just playing music.

[@AdrianCaceresneurosurg]

This and Seal's Violet are in my opinion, the two jewels Trevor Horn crystallized...

[@wiskasz8127]

When i was 19 i was totaly in love with her, and 30 years later still .....

[@clauswalter9586]

So ein Wahnsinns Song........ Hammer..... Läuft wie eine Maschine

[@Db64o]

capolavoro dei tanti che fecero la storia immortali

[@johnwiesen4440]

I was still in school then, I wish I was there!!!!!

[@SlobbyMcSlob]

Freytag has some of the most badass poise, the way she mounts on to her mic.

[@amw6778]

... still f..king great after all these years... way ahead of their time

[@kendavid891]

Me and my sis loved Propaganda and still do,musicianship is stupendous, nothing like this great 80s band ever,the mystery,the sound

[@FlavioVittorioMartini]

Great! Derek Forbes, ex Simple Minds as Bass Player! The Drummer, ex Japan. The song... Art of Noise!

[@g-plan9future204]

Unforgotten time in music

[@frenchenstein]

Great band. Big favourite of mine ❤

[@MultiMrMiles]

80s had the BEST...never forget...

[@fmbdl666]

This is so very good...

[@royalnass1029]

nice song

[@gilpfdasilva7144]

O melhor dos anos 80 puro talento.Sem apelo sexual

[@Joao666P]

good memories, I love this song, the lyrics, the beat, and of course Susan's voice ;)

[@tone12many43]

Gutted I never see these live. Loved Propaganda and Xpropaganda

[@patofliky6567]

Para mi lo mejor de Propaganda. Un ritmo que te lleva a cerrar los ojos y llevarte a lugares magicos, sin drogas. Como dice sueño dentro de un sueño

[@eastdream20001]

dilation of the pupil. very nice.

[@0The0Web0]

Such a timeless fantastic piece ❤

[@a62700]

Can remember them when Propaganda were new and big in Germany, we were a group of 2-3 people who heard them a lot in Denmark and was very fond of their music. Have a lot of their music also some old LP records 45 maxi singles. One of the reasons that I still have my old record player.

[@clauswalter9586]

Der Song ist so cool...... Immer noch

[@1joancalvet]

Fantasticos ¡¡¡

[@VickersDoorter]

38 years on and counting. Considering the relatively archaic production tech compared to today, the performance and quality is superb.

[@andreasgeorgiou8509]

even with its imperfect sound it's a fantastic interpretation given with body and soul. thank you.

[@sharonsekhon9475]

wish I saw this live. epic still.

[@ghostwriter71]

Such a great song - I would call it "unwiederbringlich!"

[@Keith1997d]

Amazing!

[@greatestmiamifan]

Lyrics in english (by E.A. Poe) : Is all that we see or seem But a dream within a dream? Take this kiss upon the brow! And, in parting from you now, Thus much let me avow You are not wrong, who deem That my days have been a dream; Yet if hope has flown away In a night, or in a day, In a vision, or in none, Is it therefore the less gone? All that we see or seem Is but a dream within a dream. I stand amid the roar Of a surf-tormented shore, And I hold within my hand Grains of the golden sand- How few! yet how they creep Through my fingers to the deep, While I weep- while I weep! O God! can I not grasp Them with a tighter clasp? O God! can I not save One from the pitiless wave? Is all that we see or seem But a dream within a dream? Und in deutsch (nicht von mir übersetzt) : Auf die Stirn nimm diesen Kuß! Und da ich nun scheiden muß, Laß mich dir gestehn zum Schluß: Die ihr wähntet, daß ein Traum Meine Tage, irrtet kaum. Wenn die Hoffnung sich zerschlug - Wann und wo sie auch entflohn, Ob bei Nacht im Schattenflug, Ob am Tage, als Vision - War sie darum weniger Trug? Was sich uns erfüllt, was nicht, Ist im Traum ein Traumgesicht. Wo die Welle, weiß von Gischt, Um den Brandungsfelsen zischt, Steh ich, und vom goldnen Sand Halt ich Körner in der Hand. Wenige! Doch selbst diese, ach! Gleiten in die Flut gemach, Und ich weine ihnen nach. O Gott! wie halt ich sie in Haft, Daß nicht alle mir entrafft! O Gott! Kann ich nicht eins der Flut Entziehn in meine sich´re Hut? Ist alles, was wir kaum Zu eigen nannten, Traum im Traum?

[@fexfreppl]

uuhhyeaahh ...memories !! the sound is real good ! (simple minds drummer ? love them too , new gold dream , ha )

[@ghostwriter71]

Please - Propaganda - bring it on - do it for some more tunes - bring it on. For some sweet dark memories...

[@STROPPYJ]

Wow. Just wow.

[@vivianaantonucci2021]

straordinario

[@rolskidrakeski]

ach suzanne........i love ya

[@Gordy1201998]

I heard Paul or Michael this week on Dutch radio, and he talked about the impossibility of performing live because of the technological complexity of the music. But now it seems they did, and even very well.

[@RICHTAYL]

There were some great versions of their songs on this tour, but having returned to this some months after watching them last, some of them seem to have disappeared off YT, including Dr Mabuse. Hopefully they can be put back up - at least 7 songs from this Tour were on YT.

[@3DPeter]

i made a mistake by mixing up this and another video from another concert from trevor horn the producer, were propaganda and othter artist were performing at a concert called the prin's thrust in england. that was amazing!

[@rabsmiff]

Germany, we ALMOST forgive you for WW2, now that you gave us the epic splendor of Propaganda.

[@gouvyrock]

"i love you Suzanne" Lou Reed

[@sunnyb92]

Brian McGee, used to be the drummer for Simple Minds.

[@iiimusika]

[@kendavid891]

Amazing 1990 1234 album they say in credits,"Susanne Freytag we love you"apparently she left Propaganda

[@majorerichhartmann33]

anni 80 miliori

[@thetriumphofthethrill2457]

Freytag's so Teutonic she would have made a perfect Ilse. And what a hottie. 😊

[@MrGILREED]

Simple THE BEST !!:)

[@meribast]

Susanne Freytag and Keren Woodward - separated at birth?

[@monj3]

que bien suenan, una lastima que solo sacaron un album bueno.... pero es una obra de arte este disco

[@Maguirearch]

Claudia Brucken looks like Marc Allmond

[@milesanddizzy]

@sunnyb92 ...and in the right ratio too :-)

[@chabbb]

big larsen on her mic when she begin to sing

[@Brentford-rf5sh]

She's sure pretty!

[@milesanddizzy]

@milesanddizzy ;-)

[@amw6778]

... Voonda bar!

[@Maguirearch]

An ice cool blonde wot a turn on !

[@Gordy1201998]

The best? Is quite objective, but I'm one of those who expect the same versions live and often don't like strange versions. Like Under pressure by Bowie and Lennox; George Michael may come close because of his range, but a female can't replace a man, and surely not Mercury. An amazing violin solo in Baba O'Reilly can't be replaced by a harmonica. Good covers though; like Dear Prudence by Siouxsie, are sometimes even better than the original. Everybody's gotta learn (Joe Cocker) not.

[@BrianSATX79]

Reminiscent of Laurie Anderson.

[@Gordy1201998]

I meant subjective ofcourse ... ;-)

[@gijsmertens6858]

sorry..i think i missed the 80's...not my cup of tea but hey, who am i. i think i went sleeping under a german stone

[@bozoleclown7851]

Trés joli oui, mais gros probleme de larsen quand même.
