jesus and mary chain - don't ever change
- barbed wire kisses

[@robgraham9947]

This group has been with me most of my adult life. I couldn't imagine my life without their songs.

[@ariel.mirabal.nigrelli]

me neither 🧡 love to know people with the same feeling

[@gabrielgabeira]

Same here.

[@MrSteniorod]

Barbed Wired Kisses help me go through growing up gay, in the third world and in a recently deindustrialized city.

[@ariel.mirabal.nigrelli]

those melodies really touch my heart and soul. so many childhood memories and even memories I’ve never lived. hard to describe it, just feel it ❤️

[@ducatione]

After all these years, still my favorite band!

[@number7gracestreet]

Just Brilliant. They knew from their very own start that Rock and Roll was closed book, it had already done everything it was ever going to do (in terms of being new and rebellious). So they took the best pages from this sacred book of Rock and Roll that we all read as kids and took the best pages ---the looks, feels and sounds of the best: Dylan, Velvets, Phil Spector and so many wonderful others. Write songs about sex and death/decay and NEVER smile. Oh they were great, and I bet they were having a great laugh while doing it all. If it's not clear, I have always liked and listened to this band a lot. It's good they get so much late day recognition. They were always looking back themselves. Dog Bless Rock and Roll.

[@KnuckleHunkybuck]

lol. Dog bless Rock 'n Roll.

[@Insp.CountMortisWinshipKlaw]

The JMC were so unique and still are. The abyss walkers.

[@darren42able]

I said it before and I'll say it again just one of the best tracks ever.Saw them play live in October,sadly they didn't play this but it was totally amazing so good.I had waited to see them most of my adult life and I wasn't disappointed #Reidbrothers #Legends #JAMC

[@Max404s]

And 22 years later, the only band I will continue to love, perhaps for all my life. This is sad in reality, because the music is all about heartbreak, disillusionment, alienation and desire.

[@MrEasye6996]

All the bad things in life have their own sort of romance.

[@mattm9396]

32 years... damn

[@friautz]

The worse you feel the better songs you write.

[@Insp.CountMortisWinshipKlaw]

They are written to help you through trails of life till its bearable.

[@darren42able]

probably one of the best songs ever recorded Jamc coolest band ever

[@darren42able]

just one of the best songs ever recorded

[@menardovocal1071]

Darren Jones FACT!!!

[@marsa74]

At least from JAMC

[@shaneshankly4518]

Some people live their lifes to take command some people live their lives to understand . I hope one day their will be equal s to the brothers Reid

[@JJKelly125]

The guitar in this tune alone puts Reid in the company of Hendrix and Richards.

[@cruyffianslip]

The Jesus and Mary Chain.. still love this song all these years on... gorgeously gorgeous...............

[@Lounge-Hound]

24 years after this song still puts a spell on me like only JAMC songs can.

[@centralohioguy]

Some of their best singles were outtakes and this was one of them. 'Sometimes' was another favorite of mine.

[@hannarika]

How can we describe JAMC music? It makes me want to die, makes me want to live - live a fulfilled life with joy and sadness. Their music has never changed in that essence to me. Love them so much.

[@hellbornelfchild]

This IS the best song they ever did!

[@wescooley34]

The jamc and the damned are two of the greatest bands ever both underated

[@68tat]

best group to listen to in Christmas eve without a soulmate

[@pizzaplanetnazgulz]

+trevor thomas :(

[@waveswavesocean]

:(

[@MissBooful]

That is too cute

[@danielscissorhands]

No, that would be: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJ2ldoR9ptqimKc

[@annak8313]

YES.

[@levyjerome]

One of my favorite J&MC songs---how can you not like it?

[@pturberville108]

To many, these band changed the world.They are the swarthy raincloud of rock that has a searing beacon of light sizzling through it.

[@bluemoon9uk]

I forgot for so long how much I love that song, thanks for posting.

[@hthomas999]

My favourite band as a teenager. I'm now a 44 y.o woman & they still sound awesome!!

[@copiapoahaseltoniana6846]

It's no different for a 64 y.o bloke like me whose been a JAMC since I was 25 y.o.

[@LesleyWesleyPresley1]

My favourite JMC song

[@jodyanderson9034]

Me too

[@JollyJimmyJohnston]

Still can’t enough of this stuff!👌❤️

[@Grichal1981]

Well I guess I never saw her in that way Well I guessed everything always ends that way Oh I guess I should have tried to make her stay Keep on coming Keep on coming Some people live their lives to understand Some people live their lives to take command But the day has come when I must make my stand Keep on coming Keep on coming Don't ever change Don't ever change Change Change If I can't get to you It's just the way you tried to hold me down You got a hold on me and I'm scared to make a sound And you know everything I ever tried to say Come on keep on coming please don't walk away You got a hold on me and I'm scared to let you go

[@clod8]

This song makes me so sad. It reminds me of this one person who I loved so much but never really told this to, he once wrote this to me in a letter (don't ever change). He really liked me and wasn't as afraid to let that be known, but I was always the one backing off. The last part of this song says it for me - it's just the way you try to hold me down...I would have loved to stay for him, but my heart said I had to keep on going. It's been more than twenty years and it still hurts.

[@annak8313]

My heart goes out to you.

[@NoJoyInThisDivision]

reach out to him !

[@Insp.CountMortisWinshipKlaw]

He's better off without you, you ego maniac.

[@markallen2984]

Sometimes we just don't really know what's good for us. Growth almost always involves pain, but we almost always instinctively turn away from pain

[@andrewhenney]

Great and classic record Jesus & The Mary Chain and you have the greatest Bands name I have ever heard of.

[@deSadetheImpaler]

nice to hear fans are still purchasing music the old fashioned way =] cheers

[@markgreet3543]

They made some very interesting music I'm proud to own this record and have Neen listening to it recently still sounds fresh

[@dammbleth2]

i'd never heard this before. It's on a B-side album and thats the reason why. If were on one of the major efforts it'd be held in higher esteem. I'm probably gunna go buy it now... Barbed Wire Kisses (& love)...

[@howardpaul3444]

I am and have always been the only peep in my crowd who sees n hears these guys....its not a small crowd......jus between the ears ...and under the ribs

[@Mewted]

0:20 - Jim 2:20 - William 2:50 - Both

[@touchingthewound]

Aaron Nope thank you!

[@MrBooYa-yd5er]

William is very soulful and sentimental where Jim got that tension and good feeling. Both huge turn on

[@sergiocosta1816]

Just like Far Gone and Out

[@flamingooaisis]

Brings back memories of 1988.

[@lyonslaforet]

Barbed Wire Kisses (1988) is a riveting B-sides and outtakes compilation however.

[@wearingvansgoghingnowhere6685]

Can the 20 thumbs down people please show your face and feel free to wear your Coldplay or Nickleback shirts for a photo op.

[@everaldoluissilva2197]

I love this song ....

[@lezliesammon4687]

[@easytears]

@hellbornelfchild surely one of their best..and it was just an outtake...incredible..

[@vanmahler6282]

[@almauric2010]

I love this music.

[@JJKelly125]

"You know everything I tried to say."

[@stevenaaus]

Barbed Wire Kisses - the *only* JAMC long player.

[@mariahornosmiller8624]

Qué gran tema!!!

[@JollyJimmyJohnston]

Classic!!! love it!!

[@Valentine1138]

I'm pretty new to JAMC but i got the boxset after hearing the psychocandy album. Randomly listened to this song as i was playin each Cd all the way through. EASILY their best song:P if anyone wants me to send it then just ask ok, i consider it sharing the love.

[@MrEasye6996]

Such a perfect song.

[@theflyintheointment]

A lost Mary Chain classic.

[@MrBooYa-yd5er]

It really is incredible

[@nancy.g-son]

Love you! My theme song for my teenage years

[@Nechepsos]

cool... bobby g pics too

[@jameskrasovetz9860]

Keep on comin’

[@Valentine1138]

yeah if you really want it, but only if you promise to buy it later:) i must say its worth it!

[@ducatione]

@sindrole They rarely played more than a couple songs at their gigs and had their backs towards the crowds at times. Punch in "North Poly Riots" and you will see them at their best! Love them when I was a teen and love them now at 42.

[@alienawake1817]

So underated

[@LightboxX]

what many jamc fans know is that 90% of what the band is about are their b-sides and collections. barbed wire kisses, the sound of speed, hate rock n roll. don't get the power of negative thinking. get those 3 albums instead and listen to them as they were originally currated by the band. also..vegetable man.

[@npcx-mq6cr]

Couldn't get those albums where I grew up to save your life - anything other than Darklands and Psychocandy, forget it. We were _lucky_ to find Barbed Wire Kisses on a cassette taped from a cassette taped from a cassette. Fucking 80s.

[@howardpaul6187]

but it is sooooooo soulful

[@juliocesarfe]

i feel the same!

[@annak8313]

Insane.

[@xXXinfonlightXXx]

Thanks for the upload hoss! :)

[@merrydel4150]

just along the road from me. Could pop in and say hi.for ye all . lol. fab.fab.fab.

[@flamingooaisis]

@thomo18869 Was that 1987? If it was I was there, 17 years old, the first band I saw. They were only on about 45 minutes, but it was as intense as anything I have seen since (until Jim staggered off the stage).

[@adamwyman656]

Love this song

[@almauric2010]

me too!

[@pintalnisto]

Ah Sale bre

[@williamreid4542]

Classic 😉👍

[@pamrouck]

[@Harbringe]

JAMC had too many good tunes to ever label anyone as their best,just too many to pick from

[@noisemaniax2876]

Como pode ter ficado de fora de "darklands" ?

[@wendellmakilanw.researchde7312]

Свой дом -- лучшее место.

[@chriswganser]

obviously really never felt the bitter sweet part of real love then

[@zodiacloveteam]

How this ended up as a "B-side" is beyond me.

[@easytears]

True

[@MrMpvincent69]

goooood

[@comeonyoutiger]

@sindrole - because they regularly used to beat the crap out of each other, brotherly love when it was done properly - ie. before Oasis ;-)

[@pmfont]

you can send the box set via email? if so, i would thoroughly appreciate it.

[@dj-um7el]

1:00 80s Scottish Lou Reed???

[@aludraco6514]

Oh I guess I should of tried to make her stay

[@Lebonsoir13]

Testing...

[@lannes2000]

👍

[@npcx-mq6cr]

Kinda makes me actually miss being 15.

[@pedrowilde]

[@ArthurGoodlad]

Hard to disagree with that.
