Placebo, My Sweet Prince

[@onegiantpez]

This song didn't used to make me cry, but then the lyrics started to pertain to my life and now I can't hardly listen to it without breaking down. Brian is so amazing.

[@01narcoleptic]

When he sings it's like he MAKES the words and the music at the moment... like it is something straight from he's soul, music from his heart, this is absolutely marvelous

[@VictoryAlexich]

21.09.2010 г. я была на концерте "Placebo" , который проходил в Москве в клубе «Arena» . Брайан Молко - все 2 часа пел "живьем. Я восхищаюсь этим человеком и его мегаталантом!!! Исполнять такие трудные партии живым голосом, потрясающим голосом!!! в 37 лет!!! - для рок-певца - это уникальный случай!!! За 15 лет своей музыкальной деятельности не пропить и не прокурить голос - великое счастье! Это, действительно, дается "свыше" и не каждому.

[@polinapo1523]

так чувственно,Господи это моя самая любимая их песня

[@rooftrelen]

Just look how passionate he is.he doesnt sing,he feels,he is a beacon of emotions. He emits waves of feeling and emotions.Perfect performer...

[@jplobo1313]

Such a powerful performance. One of the best I have seen in my life. I love this guy.

[@vikivj]

probably the most beautiful placebo's song I really love it and the way that brian is singing it is just so painful and full of paison it's ... I have no words to describe the way I fell every time i hear it ... it's like some part of me is truly dieing... GOD LOVE this song and love Brian and love Placebo

[@Eeinka]

amazing.. as many people wrote in here, there are no words to discribe what this performance is doing with me, I just must watch it again and again.. it touches my heart.. Brian is perfect - my sweet prince.. So before I end my day I watch it ones more..

[@verycoldgirl]

my God,... its very old story and everybody knows it...he is absolutely always so emotional about this song...

[@ruka9986]

i dont know why it hurts so much when I hear this song. Before even paying close attention to the lyrics...just his voice and the song itself is so so sad...

[@annapalava8935]

LOVE it. Best version ever. I always start crying and my heart beats fast.

[@MyScarletFall]

This is my most favourite song in the entire planet! And this performance is stunning... His pain tears in your flesh...

[@nazarenewyckoff8883]

To me this is the most powerful song so far.

[@HeartxShapedxBox7]

I get chills every time I listen to this song, full of emotions... And especially in this performance... but Placebo are amazing, all the time.

[@noemista85]

Taikatalvi Unfortunately they have lost their identity in my opinion. Their music was good until 2007 but I can't listen to their 2 last albums

[@zebri10]

placebo rocks.. .the best band i've ever heard... they always sing with so much feeling , its so good...

[@droogxs]

one of the best live performances i've ever seen

[@javelin60]

This performance is gut-wrenchingly beautiful - it tears out your gut and wraps it around your throat - but all in a good way. Brian Molko is one of the great artist/entertainer/songwriters of the modern age. His lyrics are pure poetry.

[@otonome]

when i was down and drunk and lonely i listened to this song non-stop i cried so loud..and...scream in silence..my sweet prince you are the one (brian you are the best ever)

[@Moitelevizor]

He as if dies on a stage. Hopelessly, hurt and beautifully. In own way beautifully

[@Mandle28]

This is why Placebo are one of the best live bands in fucking years........Great song, great band!

[@FatsaRock]

Hey, my pleasure! Isn't it wonderful to find such a deep meaning in a song??? The magic of the music! It's great to loose into the meaning of the songs and try to understand their lyrics..... This performance is one of the best I have seen! So emotional!!!

[@carolinabergamo6459]

brian doesn't act like this in every show.. this makes his performance so rare and special and emotional for the public

[@bismark4288]

I. Agree totally. So emotional, almost a religious experience.... He, though I hate to compare singers to other singers sort of hearkens back to the pure sexuality that Jim Morrison portrayed on stage , makes love to our ears, without Morrison's arrogance, of course, Brian is more projection than inflection. He is the one. :)

[@penceyprep1598]

Crystal u need to chill out

[@deperez00]

the one time i've seen him shout. beautiful, beautiful song

[@lusine423]

I can only say one word for this song - EMOTION...

[@MissDelloone]

this guy is simply amazing a very big thank you to mister Molko you're the ONE!!! just like a god for me ....

[@TwoGuysWithPants]

wow. a really emotional performance. i love it when artists don't just play songs.

[@jsoken1]

It's so powerful how he sings it, his singing his poor heart out, I love this song.

[@devlishanjel13]

the boy's definitely got style...i love placebo!!!

[@nancyjunkie]

They are angels. =') This song makes me cry, it's so beautiful. PLACEBO is my life ♥

[@tsarabanjina]

Magnifique, quel regret de n'avoir pas été dans la salle! Super bien filmé.

[@franznataly]

Muy muy buen video el sentimiento con el que canta todo es muy fuerte muy muy sensacional brian es sorprendente la letra sin palabras muy buena

[@barbor88]

I have some kind of strange feelings watching and listening to it...this performance is genial,deep,soul,pure,breathtaking,painful,confession,the whole inside of somebody...but to see Brian in these conditions I mean what had to be inside him in this moment...that song hurts me...nothing bad just something strange what I can´t describe also ´cos of drug and drunk Brian...our lovely Brian...

[@evangelion10119]

This along with Lady of the Flowers are my favorite songs by Placebo.

[@otonome]

babe babe...please don't cry angel :( i do love you ur the best..ur the one brian..please dont cry babe

[@lrwelizabeth]

this song is so special to me, so hauntingly beautiful :(

[@tuskmite]

i usually dont like placebo but this is amazing. triphop, drugs, slow, sad. beatiful.

[@Skadiusha6]

Intense emotion fully packed. Just astounding.

[@sirius6113]

he´s fascinating

[@rosalbina188]

speechless.. breathless.. beauty and desperation in one fantastic, hurting, emotional, passionate performance. it really made me cry, and that doesn't happens so frequently. thank you brian for this great song, even though it was really painful for you

[@droogxs]

i've stopped doing drugs for 3 years now.. but sometimes i was getting high just to sit and listen to placebo ! .. but this song is not about drugs anyway, the thing was that Brian had a smashing night with his ex and next day when he woke up he found these words on his mirror " my sweet prince you are the one " written by her.

[@bakkermaarten007]

Althoug he didn't finish singing the song, I think the audience that was there got to see the best Brian Molko has got! Wow, stunning performance!

[@zebri10]

makes me cry... i love this song

[@luciaramirezbernal]

I love this video, looks so ... great, and more importantly .... It makes me wanna have a smoke at this rhythm

[@Stonekeepa]

its been more than a year now that every month I write at least one comment on this video and once again...: THIS SONG IS KILLING ME AND I CAN'T STOP LISTENING TO IT!!!!!!!! ARRRGHHHHH too good, just too deep... and to good!

[@ninodeportugal]

grande banda,grandes musicas,estilo execional,voz incoparavel, muito bon mesmo abraco!!!

[@manuelmuller9156]

Brian : It is a love song really, you know, and it's... we don't write songs with radio play in mind, you know, that was a song that... there was quite a big tragedy in our lives that occurred while we were demoing this record before Christmas and it sort of had to come out. We just kind of vomited the song forward you know. And it's kind of a song about sort of two romances, a romance with a substance and a romance with a person and they both ended very, very tragically. Hence you know the very, very downbeat mood of the song. It's so, you know... the song, even the guitars sound druggy in that song, it's weird, and that wasn't really that purposeful, it just kind of came out that way.

[@crystalsims1965]

it's a love song with heroin dumbass!!!

[@janeharrington9811]

@@crystalsims1965 Exactly. He was on heroin here. Later he substituted cocaine for heroin. He was just as drugged and belligerent then.

[@placebothecure]

Wow, the first Placebo song I heard... Thanks for uploading the vid! ^^

[@V4NW00D]

ho my god what a great video more from this concert please

[@britsangel]

His beauty hurts..I have to admit,when I see him so gorgeous and fantastic..I feel so bad..'cause he's not mine,'cause I'm not him,'cause I can't control him..something like that..I don't know :)).

[@a.b.2757]

Was lucky to be part of the crowd at the concert in 2001, but didn't understand the meaning of this song at all back then. I just remember that we were all quite confused of his behaviour and performance on stage. Happy for having found this video now. Are there any other videos of their gig from Hurricane 2001????

[@Έλενα-ω5γ]

I wish i was there but i was born in 2001...

[@01narcoleptic]

My Sweet Prince ~ Placebo is my LOVE.

[@aiorialol]

Best fucking perfomance ever

[@franznataly]

me encata este video no me canso

[@Kketerina]

Шел 2024 и эта песня все так же трогает и рвет

[@spaceape91]

OMG I finally found this again. My best friend who committed suicide 8 months ago showed me this. I am happy I found it, but I cannot listen to this song without crying.

[@elsapelle19]

it's his best live performance, for sure it is just a m a z i n g

[@andresgonzalez6328]

escuchandolo con debo.. pulgares arriba! PD: la amo

[@cukrowa]

OH MY GOD. THIS IS JUST GREAT.

[@TheOnlyCthulhu]

You're really obsessed with Molko, aren't you? Otherwise, why should you watch this video over and over again...

[@mariyavasyukova5060]

Best fucking song existing ever.

[@StaVroula141]

it was such a strong performance... really touching...

[@otonome]

i'm crying again on this song:-

[@MissDreamHuntress]

I fucking love this song. Great perfomance. One of my favourites ever. Placebo rocks.

[@luizaolsdal1266]

Я сейчас умру , Господи.

[@HereIsTheAlien]

this song makes me shiver every time i hear it

[@droogxs]

[@OoLoulitaoO]

[@katrekoovit8601]

[@theunattainable11]

[@Professor_Silva]

[@arconus]

[@maritree]

[@qMySpecialKp]

This performance is truly amazing...

[@michaelmole5435]

Lol 1:14 his diva head movement! Lol love it. Terribly deep song that most will never understand.

[@Southern4ever]

The girlfriend is still alive... Poor Brian, after 3:49 it all goes down-hill.. So tragic and beautiul. It makes me cry when he throws the mic down =[

[@mizolas]

Probably the best performance

[@frangetset]

i haven't cried for almost 3 years... 'till now.

[@pilotos123]

tears in my eyes...:(

[@DespinaSt9]

So passionate...It's obvious he is aching and also I think he is angry about something. Maybe angry with himself...

[@ispanico23]

I really really feel sad for this... I don't even know you, but I know very well how painful is to loose someone you love, so.. If can help, a big hug from Italy... xxxx

[@Useless-girl]

OMG! I nearly cried at the end of it. This really makes people to want to cut their wrists. So intense! So sad! So full of emotions! And the beautiful and painful music just adds to the lyrics. Brilliant performance! It hurts like hell, but it's good. Love him, love his music and lyrics! Amazing! Simply amazing!

[@Katelik]

какой милый, но какой наширявшийся Молко..)

[@zlatickoxt]

This was my first video with Placebo. At first I thought there was nothing special about this song but then I realized how much I liked it.

[@hbhill]

This song is mesmerizing... I am possessed!!!!! 0_0

[@ElisaN92]

This so makes me cry

[@FatsaRock]

English it's not my mother language cause i'm from Greece.... I'll check!! Thanks so much!! :)

[@retrogrrrl]

Achingly beautiful, passionate & INTENSE.

[@Derrek84]

looks like noone knows what this song is all about...but it's beautiful anyway i suppose it makes it even better that it can be interpreted any way you want to

[@jimbot2007]

amazing song and performance,but heartbreaking to watch him hurting like that.

[@sandydee22]

@pinkthunderwonder there are some interviews when they mention girl and some where they mention boy.

[@hopeforlooser]

This almost made me cry...

[@Vampyrellax]

I love him!

[@xxBuddenxx]

i wonder what steve and stef are thinkin while brians goin on his tantrum like oh shit, here he goes again still, one of my fav. placebo songs

[@zuzuhello]

im hypnotized by this video

[@HowAboutNoSir]

God I want to say so much while watching this but I'm speechless and totally amazed at the same time...so just...Brian

[@fmcnaimada]

la mia canzone preferita, suona nella mia testa dal 1990!!!

[@SaintDuma]

This is a very hard video to watch, emotionally. Across years and media, the expression is so clear and the performance so pregnant that even a jaded viewer clearly comprehends and is affected by it. It's a hallmark of a performer to have something that powerful, and this is one of many reasons why Placebo's music is so arresting, and has such a loyal following. Even if the music is not someone's particular taste, it is nevertheless too remarkable to dismiss.

[@silviacancellieri6513]

placebo vi adorooooo

[@googoobh]

I know of no other I could ever fight for.

[@manuelmuller9156]

I think it's both, heroin and love.
