You should of seen them open with this live,it was superb,I guess even Eno would have loved it.Great Power,Great Performance & Pete Murphy with his then chiseled from white granite face.He was a really good performer
cuando un amigo me presto el cassete ..que por cierto jamas regrese, me fascino la banda.. y saber tiempo despues que son los iniciadores del movimiento gótico, o cuasí.. ... y creo que en ese ritmo decadente, jamás debio de haber desaparecido.. ( the gotic was R.I.P) T,T..
The same but on english... [ " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " "]
Interesting argument from Both, but anyone who thinks music is just music is wrong. Sure, some music is just music, there's no heart or art in it, and yes slag it off for what it is, product versus art.
I don't think this is a great cover, but it's certainly not the worst.
As for a musician being a better judge... more than probably true.
However, there's a lot of technically brilliant stuff that just sounds pants.
Bauhaus had a knack of making good on existing tune like this, by Eno and I think they made a better job of Ziggy Stardust (oooh controversial!!!) Fax me for a discussion...
With all the worst parts of 80's music being resurrected in the past few years you'd think that those at the forefront (ahem! la roux) of would have at least given these guys a nod. This is where the quality was back in those day, Bauhaus still haunt me now...totally brilliant.
@mookie2637 I"m a musician,too,and I know better than to spend my time downgrading other musician's efforts or stand on a mountain and claim I'm an authority on what music has worth and what doesn't.you may have been playing bass as a session man for twenty years,but that still don't make you any more of an authority on music than anyone else.sounds like you've got alot of maturing to do.music is music.
@dancooperfication Sorry I don't like what you like. But why does that mean I have a lot of maturing to do? And what does 'music is music' mean other than an utter banality?
@mookie2637 i don't give a shit one way or the other.i think your immature because you boast about how long you've played an instrument,like that somehow makes your opinion more valid than a non musicians,and then proceed to trash a band who's video page you're on while listing all the bands you think are cooler like some little teenage hipster.i consider myself a musician,and i know better than to waste my breath cutting down other ppl's music on a public forum.yeah,u sound like a little boy.
@dancooperfication I said I didn't like it and I explained why. I said how long I'd played an instrument, not because that makes my opinion any more valid, but because someone told me to 'learn music'. If you are so 'mature' why are you incapable of carrying out a reasonable conversation without resorting to insults? I don't like this. That's my prerogative, just as it's your's to like it.
@mookie2637 if you want to know why you sound like a little boy,re-read the first comment you made 6 months ago.and i'm still curious why there are so many ppl like you who watch videos you don't like so you can bitch about them.i don't waste my time doing that,but for some reason i am wasting my time arguing with you,which is almost as stupid.i think i'll stop.
@dancooperfication Heh - okay it's a deal. I used to love them - I remember playing countless covers of Bauhaus songs in the eighties. My point is: where was the substance in this band? Other than the hairdos, the dry ice and the posing, what were they saying that could stand the test of time? Not much, if anything, in my view. If your's is different why not take the time to explain why. instead of throwing your toys out of the pram?
@dancooperfication Today I stood for 15 minutes reading an account by Jonny Marr of why Wire were a great band. It wasn't massively articulate, but nonetheless he didn't write that piece about Bauhaus. My sense is that they took accepted cliches of the moment and just...made them louder. Wire, The Fall and the Gof4 did something that marked a genuine aesthetic break. Your view?
@mookie2637 u still don't get it,dude.it's not your opinion that's lame,it's the fact that u think it matters.what did bauhaus have besides dry ice and posing? well,for one,they wrote songs and went out and played them for a crowd,which i suspect is more than can be said for u.when your dedicated to your art,you understand the effort and worth of others who get off their asses and do it.as for rock critics,i have never cared what they have 2 say.what a gaggle of comical douches they r.
rock lists can b stuffed up a big ol' butthole 2.luv reading some armchair fuck's opinion about who the best guitarist is,but i like cleaning my asshole with it even more.i'm 2 busy being jazzed about what i like 2 worry about the shit i don't.besides,music is only really appreciated on a primal level.music is primal.intellectual bullshit is best saved 4 fucking cocktail parties.
@dancooperfication Your articulacy, as ever, is outstanding. Thank you. What an admirable philosophy of music you have. With this attitude, we could have dispensed with Mahler, Bach and all those old farts. Thank God!
@mookie2637 WTF? u think I'm condemning classical music?By "intellectal bullshit" i mean ppl who argue about music instead of enjoying it. If u listen to classical music with your brain,i don't think you're really appreciating the music.music is about feeling,i don't give a shit how "high-brow" it is.But,really,please have the last word.This going back and forth is a retarded waste of time.
@dancooperfication Jonny Marr was the guitarist in the Smiths - possibly one of the more important British bands of the mid and late eighties. Are you suggesting that anyone who tries to write songs and gigs them is somehow automatically to be valued? Hmmm. I have written songs and gigged them, but I wouldn't claim that what I did stands the test of time because I was, uh "dedicated to my art".
@mookie2637 I am highly inclined to disagree with you entirely. I believe this song is quite a fantastic cover and much don't care for Eno's original at all. It's a matter of taste.
Hopefully you won't be like the average YouTube user and tell me my taste sucks and I'm wrong. Hopefully.
Lastly, if you don't like the cover and you already knew of the band, why bother commenting on it? Seems pointless to me.
@MegaDrProfessor No I won't be like the average YouTube user and tell you your taste sucks. Equally, why are negative comments any less worthwhile than positive ones? I've never seen a convincing argument why Bauhaus were 'a great band' or did anything musically interesting. A bit like Killing Joke, it's just a lot of dry ice, bad make up and doom-mongering. All just my opinion of course.
@mookie2637 mookie what a particularly awful reply. anyone who knows anything about post-punk music knows that bauhaus is on a level of it's own. peter and these guys helped move an entire generation of punks into the direction of goth. Wire is an amazing band, but really, besides Pink Flag I wouldnt call any of their albums completely epic. Mask and In the flat Fields are much greater accomplishments as far as I am concerned. The Fall and the Heat are also shit compared to bauhaus. learn music
@robaralis Clam down before you drop a load in yer pants, boyo. I luv this version, too, but Eno & Manzarek did this well live, too. it was harder than the studio version. As for This Heat, they were hardly "shit" (the language of the dullard) comapred to Bauhaus. Remember, Bauhaus had the core of Love & Rockets, whose later work like "Legs" was utter sellout crapola. And as great as Bauhaus was, they had some stinkers, too.
@robaralis I've been a session bass player for the best part of 20 years. I don't need to 'learn music'. I also remember going to several Bauhaus gigs in the early eighties when I was a sort-of fan of theirs. But now it seems to me there are many other bands of the late seventies and early eighties who did far more musically interesting and adventurous things than Bauhaus ever did. Perhaps you're just being a bit nostalgic?
@mookie2637 You must be a 5 years old if you think this is the worst cover ever. Either that, or you haven't heard much music at all. I give Eno & Manzarek tons of credit for their work, but this version takes the original and gives it balls! This version is more upbeat, harder, and much more compelling than the orig. studio version. Though live, 501 rocked this. too.
