The Streets - Weak Become Heroes / Blinded By The Lights (Glastonbury 2019)

[@Stampistuta]

Blinded by the Lights does an incredible of making you feel like your actually in the nightclub. It’s a bit of a masterpiece.

[@ogregolabo]

Yes , that is a master piece file the ages. Different generation same drives. What do we learn?😮

[@Gibbopottomus]

The mans a genius, read his book, grew up not far from me, i went to the same places etc and i know exactly where he’s on about etc, a real story teller but a proper performer as well. A current living legend.

[@gingerelvis]

The Streets where the absolute highlight of my weekend. I went off on my own leaving my friends to watch The Cure, ended up enjoying the whole set with a girl I didn't know also on her own. We sang, we danced, we cried then we hugged and went off into the night. Until next time.

[@ClaudioSanchezCC]

Blinded by the lights is forever a song that makes me feel like coming up stone cold sober.

[@brandnewday2750]

Blinded by the lights makes me feel empty, kinda heartbroken, and also like I’m missing out on something. It always did. Not sure any other tune has ever done that

[@littleCarmine]

Me too! In 2004 it made me feel empty about the night life I was missing out on because I was too young. Now the song makes me miss 2004 and my youth.

[@lindsayrogers6690]

I’m 67 and love this. My mate Tony Wilson pioneered dance music and would have applauded Mike Skinner. Urban poetry at its finest.

[@calibunninpoet7329]

[@Percepti0nIsReality]

So happy Mike Skinner is back on his grind! whhat a legend

[@Eclectic_City]

Blinded by the lights was huge tune for me. As a kid from Chicago who visited the UK, this track seemed to resonate with so many experiences of my youth. This became one of my favorite songs when I saw Kidulthood tho! Bigups to The Streets, a true legend.

That Blinded repeat synth is shivery, every time I hear it, live or recorded same reaction! Banger.

[@boxmad5523]

He’s right, people forget Original Pirate Material was a major force in helping Grime become more mainstream, without him we might not have seen Kano, Skepta, Giggs etc get into the mainstream, not to mention he also discovered Pro Green and Example. Skinner is a legend

[@Martyniak.D]

Rob Harvey has solid backvocal. nicely done!

[@thoseheavysouls]

He’s class! Doing a great job with Kasabian now too and back with The Music. Class act.

Blinded by the lights best song of all time no question, goosebumps even on youtube

I like the way he says: "Ladies and gentlemen". He's definitely one of us. A younger, English Bukowski...,

I can relate to EVERY Streets song ever written ❤️

[@laganas2008]

This and Stay Positive are two of my most loved songs by them.

[@Rkid-pi7ot]

Their best ever live performance. The atmosphere in the tent was electric. Not the same at one of the main stages.

[@dariocheese9240]

Top guy top band top song.... The streets easy peasy the best

[@lexigurlx]

The streets ❤️ some of my favourite tunes thanks for blessing our ears with some true classics x

[@Willbailey862]

Mate the streets got fully screwed over, John Peele stage was too small for them, half the crowd couldn't fit in the tent and you couldn't hear them outside of the tent, had to leave after two songs

[@adriancline-bailey3301]

Damn, what a moment, two amazing tracks, but Blinded by the Lights wow!

[@duncanwalduck7715]

Man, glad they're still playing. Playing big. Bigger, even. Just remember not quite paying attention to them at Reading one year, cos my friends (there) didn't feel any connection to the EDM scene, and it was really rather early in the afternoon still.

I feel like there better in the tents tho atmosphere wise compared to pyramid stage, I know what you mean though hopefully they come back and headline other stage next year fingers crossed

[@Al_o_bri]

Ryan Turner not when the whole field gets crowded out and half the people can’t see the stage, meanwhile the other stage headliner has hardly anyone there. Bad organisation on this occasion

[@buckbumble]

I think the John Peel stage is fitting as he was all about new, different, innovative music. Same as Mike
