Video des Tages - Waterfall


The mighty Stone Roses perform "Waterfall" live on the telly - ca. March 1989.

The show was called "Other Side of Midnight" (or OSM), aired on ITV/Grenada in the UK.  In an extended version during the introduction, the host told of how he initially didn't like the Roses' early/demo stuff.  But someone he respected said "Listen man!  You gotta hear what these guys are playing now."  This was aired before the album was released.

Back in '89 I had a hat like the drummer's.  Mine was blue.

Not bad; the only one who looks older than 14 is the guy behind the amps. Speaking of 14-year-olds, the sound is not too different from the Jonas Brothers. Fill in the blanks: What was once ____ is now ____.
