Van Morrison - Bulbs (Live From Montreux) (1974) [1080p HD]

[Video #65] from http://www.youtube.com/user/MetalGuruMessiah the address for MetalGuruMessiah's Musical Paint Box! Check out my other videos!

Well, this isn't the version of "Bulbs" that I originally made the video for or the version I wanted for the video, but here it is.....from a version of the song recorded in 1974 and released on the Live At Montreux 1980/1974 DVD.

Wanting to make a video for another of my all-time top 10 artists for quite some time (also right after The Beatles, the artist that I've had most requests to make a video for!), but finding Van Morrison songs that will be allowed to play is difficult.

I was so happy when test upload for "Bulbs" went well and the video was allowed to play....jumped right in and made a video for it. Unfortunately, between the time of the test and finishing the video.....things changed. So......the only thing I could do was to find a live version to use. There were only two that I could find and though I preferred the performance of the other live version...the sound was so thin. Decided to go with this version....great sound, but not my favorite performance.....slower tempo.

My absolute preferred version of "Bulbs" is by far the original studio version. Veedon Fleece is another Van Morrison masterpiece and "Bulbs" is one of my favorite tracks on the album.

The video was timed to the original studio version and when I had to replace the song, I didn't want to re-tune the video....so I just extended/added/slowed as necessary to meet the longer running time. I thought the original video was very cool....nicely timed transitions.....this slowed down version doesn't really work, but....it's nice to hear his different take.

Hope you enjoy!

[Lyrics]
I'm kicking off from center field
A question of being down for the game
The one shot deal don't matter
And the other one's the same

Oh! My friend I see you
Want you to come through (alright)
And she's standing in the shadows
Where the street lights all turn blue

She leaving for an American (uhuh)
Suitcase in her hand
I said her brothers and her sisters
Are all on Atlantic sand

She's screaming through the alley way
I hear the lonely cry, why can't you?
And her batteries are corroded
And her hundred watt bulb just blew

Lallallal, alright, huhuhhuh

She used to hang out at Miss Lucy's
Every weekend they would get loose
And it was a straight clear case of
Having taken in too much juice

It was outside, and it was outside
Just the nature of the person
Now all you got to remember
After all, it's just show biz

Lallalal, huhuh, lallal

We're just screaming through the alley way
I hear her lonely cry, ah why can't you?
And she's standing in the shadows
Canal street lights all turn blue
And she's standing in the shadows
Where the street lights all turn blue
And she's standing in the shadows
Down where the street lights all turn blue
Hey, hey, yeah
