The Sisters Of Mercy - Lucretia My Reflection

[chachaheels90]

Awh man this is beautiful. What I would've done to see this!

[CathalinaCFC]

"I don´t want people to come to see our gigs because of the magnificient things I´m doing with my hips"

Well those things are really magnificient, I was trying not to stare but failed so badly =D But still, there is much more than this...

[LoogieV]

Am i the only one jealous of dave vanian, for being married to Patricia ?

[silverwolf2061]

andrews voice melts in my brain like butter

[LebaneseBrit]

Nah, that's a bit of live vocal over the top of the studio track. If it was up to the Sisters then they would have played live, but miming was the quick and easy TV thing back in the 80s.

Look at the excuses made by the producers of TOTP when the audience demanded live performances - and eventually got their way.

[SantaKalauz]

whats the chicks name?

[camfroghoofy]

@SantaKalauz Patricia Morrison

check her out on wikipedia ( Youtube wont allow links  .. The official video is way better ;)

[kraftwerk526463]

wish they had stayed as this line up as patricia Morrison is as cool as Mr Eldritch

[goldheartagram777]

wow...this isn't dubbed with the studio audio at all...lol. i find it weird that they supposedly didnt play live during the floodland era which is when she was when patricia was in the band. Too bad shes gone :(

[diamandaish]

una de las mejores bandas del movimiento dark

[goofygoat2009]

I read that the band still owes her some dough.

[eveesth]

Does anybody have a picture of Andrew Eldritch without sunglases?

[livingdeadpunk138]

@eveesth

Yeah, I have a couple of pictures of him without them, and he looks, well, he doesn't look that nice hahaha.

Anyway, if you want to see him, just google it.

[tvsuechtig]

So long not heard, i wish, i could find the cd

[brittisnow]

remember, he's not goth! Just ask him and he'll tell you as he cashes a check from goths all over the world.

[divine1media]

fucking Hot!

[phatmatt885]

Damn patricia morrisson looks extra hot in this vid

[SheerFaith1]

too much amphetamin andrew..too much..

so keep on kicking asses

[somekind6ofstranger]

God I would have loved to attend a Sisters concert......

[gilllie666]

modern goth bands don't have that high octave bass anymore, its more of a background instrument and fairly inaudible...shame

[DarkNomad812]

"Christabel Dreams" - I think this band is real oldschool

[DoktorAzik]

@gilllie666 She Wants Revenge

[goofygoat2009]

she is super cool isn't she?

[alexwebsterowns]

@goofygoat2009

[DarkAngel182]

I used to have a bit of a thing for that bass player.

Pity shes not with the band any more!

[kpuc1973]

yeah me too.

didn't she join the damned and marry dave varnian?

[DarkAngel182]

Yes that's right. Last I heard she'd had to stop touring as she was bringing up their child.

[alanpogi69]

'Coz she's living with me now, bwahahahahahahahaha! : )

[DarkAngel182]

I heard she'd married that guy out of "The Damned"!

[julieanddavid]

@livingdeadpunk138 lol thats not vanian vanian is nicer looking

[livingdeadpunk138]

@julieanddavid

Hahaha I know it's Andrew Eldritch, it seems I wanted to reply to DarkAngel182's comment but forgot to hit the 'reply' button. Terrible mistake.

[livingdeadpunk138]

@DarkAngel182

Dave Vanian, that is ;)

[abakab1]

I LIKED HERE TOO!

[TheOCDan]

F***ing LOVE that song.

[outrim]

obviously miming.

whatever happened to patricia's band after this? saw them at camden underworld years ago.

[wuzasometina]

i like patricia. she's my friend

[gothikbloodlust]

ive heard this song b4 somewhere *thinks* hmmm did someone do a remake?

[JJVanillaGorilla]

blb

[HustlerPumpkin]

I'm gonna see them in February! :D It was my BF's Xmas present! :p

[Idol2Idol]

For fuck sake can we stop the whole "andrew looks and sounds like ian curtis" debate!.

Its totally pointless and was probably started by some fucking 16 y/old who saw control and considers themselves to be an expert on the whole post punk/factory records episode!. JUST DROP IT OK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lepenseur76]

Andrew looks like Ian Curtis?! Never really saw the resemblance.. still don't, actually..

[Idol2Idol]

Well said mate. Thank god you have sense lol

[kdx75]

GGGRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[Kartofflesalad]

Oh 1 more thing, he messes up the lyrics, so i am guessing that only the Instruments are Mimed....

[Kartofflesalad]

In this video, Eldritch looks justl ike Ian Curtis... Well if Ian Dyed his hair black, and wore aviators..

[herekittykitty34]

Yeah because for some reason he decided to comb his hair over his forehead which is weird since he didn't usually do that.

[Mehenkvetre]

That's James Ray, the one and only, on guitar.

[AvicusUK]

The guy on the left is James Ray, the Performance era hence less hell's angel look, and the guy on the right miming guitar is Rodney Orpheus, the vocalist from The Cassandra Complex, maybe because Andy found him comical back then. He is certainly trying hard (unlike Ray).

[AvicusUK]

he Sisters Of Mercy as Andy was super intent on pissing off the recent flock, back then, by not touring a la a very The Mission thing to do so NO,

[AvicusUK]

I guess he never gave CC or The Fur Bible a Merciul Release contract soooo, maybe he got on ok with James back then. After all this is essentially a TOTP Sisterhood, minus Lucas Fox, who drummed with the Sisters at Ben Gunn's last gig with them at the Lyceum in 1983, when Doktor Avalanche was doofishly wiped by Benjamin, AND of course Alan Vega, who provided the original (missing demo) vocals on the 1st take of This Corrosion,

[honeythorn]

OMNOMNOM.

[AvicusUK]

Patricia is so miming .. looks like she's twanging an old Gun Club swamp bass line, not the heavily duo-motiffed 16 to the bar bass line of Lucretia, My Reflection. . one I feel maybe Craig wrote before he left : it's very his signature, only less compressed Fender blended... Eldritch is indeed singing live (he could then), and seems to think that Rod And Pats are dorks from what I pick up .. some pet lackeys for TV pretending to be T

[TheOCDan]

"Floodland" written by Eldritch.

[indetroit442]

aaaahhhhhh

[nightimer]

Are you excited, mate?

[NBjam77]

excellent song from the best band ever!!!

couldn't help notice it's recorded in montreux though,i thought it was a jazz festival;)

[dutchovenbakery]

just ran across this video, but notice the lip synch? also , isn't that the guitarist from that band that sang "I Want Candy?" . sorry just can't remmember that 80s punk band.

[soepil]

You mean Bow Wow Wow ? Matthew Ashman ? Does anybody know if he played with SOM ?

[TommyHilfaker]

ahh the old good times

[ETBA67]

original

[EndorphinsNYC]
