@Is Bae Blind, July 24th, '97 I was there as well, having learned on Tuesday the 22nd that the cancer that was eating me alive in May '96 was in full remission. A very special evening, there was a charge in the place I've rarely felt. Similar to psilocybin, but not induced. Electrifying.

😂

[@LazerMage77]

In this case it surely makes the singing, and Beth, far more sexy. This song has such a desperation to it, and drinking and smoking are often aligned with depression and forgetting your anxiety in the situation you're in. Of course, she's just really enjoying a cigarrette whilst performing, and just not giving a f__k.

[@danydanielyan9904]

The way she goes "A thousand Flowers could bloooom" and hits us with the smile... this live rendition of Glory Box is absolutely breathtaking! The way Beth Gibbons pours her heart and soul into every note is just mesmerizing. The atmosphere, the vibe, everything about this performance is pure artistry... i think she unintentionally made smoking look cool

[@APisceanSlant]

As someone who was young and alive during this era, I can't express how sentimental the audience scenes from 4:35 onwards, are. As an old fart, I lament the fact that everyone (including me) are recording concerts with their phones. Seeing the crowd just focused on the band, performance and music, is definitely something to feel nostalgic about. That said, if I had the ability to capture this performance back in the day, I would have. No hate from this Gen-X'r...just looking back, is all

@@edisonlee9975 I listen and make primarily metal music and I get where he's coming from. Metal is more repetitive than pop in a lot of ways. A lot of metal bands just do blast beats, grind on the guitar and have singers that al sound the same.
