Hey man just came from post gmr stream. Liking these guys alot. Am learning gunsmithing because of your channel.

So brandon you a 80s lover to like me

[@LilB1981]

Totally agree! The Midnight and Nikki Flores together is nothing less than amazing, they do so well together. This is the first live video of them I've ever watched, I normally just listen on Tidal...I love their whole image on stage, I'd love to see them live some time for sure!

[@sebastienringuet8952]

[@flighmore]

Best fucking band ever period. period.

[@BradGroux]

Thanks to The Midnight and Nikki Flores for securing my life savings. I no longer have to build a time machine to go back to the 80s.

[@AlexA-lz4iw]

Supposedly this song was written for bruce Springsteen...

[@StevenMcFlyJunior]

I can use that money to fix mine in Doc's Shop ....

[@Alkivar]

​@@AlexA-lz4iw close but incorrect. WRITTEN BY Bruce Springsteen. The lyrics were written by Patti Smith after Bruce gave up on it after a few months. Bruce's studio engineer at the time was Jimmy Iovine who got Patti involved.

Gashi 1984 album is surprisingly decent too if you haven't listened to it .

@@lavarball5618 was expecting HARD crazy stupid rap. This, this is not half bad. Interesting. Listening to Don't Kill Me r-n

It's so great to know that The Midnight is just as good live as they are in the studio. They're genuine musicians.

[@jeroenvisser4616]

That is so true, I have seen them in Paradiso in 2019 and they are 🔥🔥🔥

[@KaiTexel]

Saw em in 2018 in Philly and they REALLY ARE just as good. I am dying to see them live again

[@ayushnegi7477]

Exactly! He sings exactly like in the song 😍

[@JoshBattin]

Makes me regret missing them even more because of a broken foot after buying tickets for their show when they came to the Bluebird.

[@blackgreff]

I saw them in Mexico 2019 and I can confirm

[@hailey7368]

It's embarrassing how many times I've replayed this song lol

[@ohok6091]

Light years was better, her voice is different here, not sure why

[@dylantallman]

Two things: 1) y'all are some talented musicians to sound *this* good live. It sounds like studio quality with how tight and controlled it is. 2) please make Nikki a permanent member of the band, because she complements y'all's style/voice so damn well. I can't wait to see y'all live when the world is somewhat back to normal!

[@shahabanwar6280]

Three things: 1. This song is the best smoothing song of this album. 2. Niki Flores fits perfectly in The Midnight. First Gloria and now this. 3. The Midnight is PERFCTION. Period Love from Pakistan. 🇵🇰❤️

[@AfterTheMidnight]

Our favorite cover of this song! Nikki and Tyler kill it together. As always! This was a fun one to react to.

[@MarissaCooperButPoor]

Nikki Flores: a queen, an icon, the moment. Also, it's nice to finally put a face to the saxophone, your reputation precedes you, sir.

[@DecoyBacon]

Ive been lucky enough to see them live twice and both times he was treated as an absolute rock star when he lit the sax up! So much fun

[@MarissaCooperButPoor]

@@DecoyBacon it’s my dream to see them live, I am so jealous 😍😍

[@TopShelfTheology]

Who is that on the sax, and was that always their sax player? Is it Tim McEwan? It's been killing me since I learned that they were primarily computer-created tracks, I was like "there's no WAY you can midi a sax that good, realistically with gusto and all that."

[@longrangeshooter]

It´s ridiculous how good they sound!! Hope to see The Midnight live in 2022 in Spain. :)

The album version is definitely the same.... But this is a live you can see them in REAL

The Midnight's lead singer has got the voice of the 70s era films and songs. Wondering if his taste in this style of music and his matching voice are all a coincidence ! 😐

This was so amazing when I heard it live last year. I had this playing while I played DnD with friends online, we played in person until some months before. But this concert ran in the background for that one day. It was a new world, a different world. We adapted, we grew, we kept our ties. This music helped fuel this. The passion you poured into this performance is such a memorable time when we were so full of vacancy. It will live forever. So beautiful. so memorable. So good.
