  • I love this track - takes me back AND is still totally of now :)

  • I have been looking for this forever...loved this in the 80's...one of the best classics!!!!!

  • love it, love it, love it...

  • This is truly an 80's classic! If it wasn't for Malcom McLaren their would be no Sex Pistols, or New York Dolls....basically Punk Rock would have never been heard of!

  • Hi Stilben - it means the guy in the next car waved his fingers at me like he was conducting an orchestra with a baton.

  • Takes me back to my late teens.. having this song on a C90 (both sides), leaving work and being conducted by a guy in the car next to me at the traffic lights,,,,aaahhh, great to be young

  • @fxpuppy4 what does conducted mean?

  • So sexy, when you're 17, and still.

  • A madam , Is A WOMAN of SUBSTANCE, GRACE & POISE

    A Butterfly has all this and MORE xxxx

  • The video and the music is not in sync..

  • Does anyone know the female singing voice (not the operatic one) performing here. It's driving me nuts. I think it sounds like Carol Decker, she of T'Pau fame but I'm dammed if I can find anything on the net about it?

  • @surreydodger A certain Debbie or Deborah Cole, background singer at Malcolm's label, I just googled. Her voice reminds me of Sheena Easton, especially in "The lover in me".

  • @Gordy1201998 Thanks Gordy,,, still has a nice sounding voice to :)

  • Such a deeply beautiful pop song in every way. It got me listening to Puccini & I was disappointed...

  • Wonderful. And Harrogate Turkish Baths still looking as good.

  • No dislikes. Says it all.

  • So far,far,far ahead of it's time..and even further ahead of time than the contemporary bullshit Rhianna/Cee-lo mass produced McMusic that people have theses ays

  • its a part of my life

  • great song

  • Other than Dollie DeLuxe, the only notable hybrid of opera & PostPunk.

  • This was one of the sexiest videos in the 80's

  • thanks for posting this . . superb . . . I met him once in the toilets of White Trash in the 80's and we shared a spliff . . . a perfect gentleman

  • Delightful. i think the Director was Terrence Donovan, the photographer + Judo Black Belt - who also did "Addicted to Love" video for Robert Palmer. Great song and theatrics.

  • 1984...a very good one...epic...

  • One of the most beautiful masterful pieces of music and art to ever surface. Truly soothing and hauntingly tantalizing

  • @TheNouveauxdecadence Well put.

  • ,nm mn. 

  • NICE!!!!!!

  • @aleeejay - Thanks!

  • i16 time,dj pray.

  • I remember the first time I heard and saw this video in the 1980s. It still causes my skin to tingle. Great piece from a very eclectic artist

  • Does anyone know which song has the words "all work, no play, makes Jack a dull boy"?

  • @disisdkat It's in the album "Fans" track 4 Boy's Chorus (La Sui Monti Dell' Est)" (from Puccini's opera Turandot

    R.I.P.

  • Some of THE best classical collaboration music ever. Simply ...Genius 

  • Malcom was pure genius mmmt oo bad ,,things went other ways

  • Malcolm was always so ahead of time and so was this remix...i still get goosebumps hearing this song...RIP McClaren - the legend lives on in his music....xxx

  • Still one of the most beautiful versions of Madam Butterfly to date. His work might have been unusual for most, but to me he is a genius.

  • Yes and 63 is still awfully young!

  • amazing no comments to this timeless classic by malc mc, rip young man, respect to mixer for postin dis class chune, Jah Bless

  • @martmako, Its a mid 80's classic...takes me back to my teens; he may have been a bit off the wall but this is one of his best pieces, still sucks that he has left us, after all 63 isn't old these days?!

    Thanks for posting M1, cheers.

  • @anzac2404 totally tragic and I agree..he was a little off the wall, but a sheer genius. I miss him a lot
