Pure bliss. To see this music performed, music I heard and felt so many times. There are so many feelings connected with this music. There's so much golden shimmering warmth in it, like a dream of better days gone by but it's rather a certainty than a dream, dreamy certainty, certain dream, whatever. Those musicians gave the world the best they could give. You can't ask for more. Thank You for posting this!
I don't even remember how I got into Weekend back in the early eightees.I'm sure I purchased their album at the import record store in Vancouver. They were the most mysterious band to me. I knew nothing about them except that they were unique and wonderful. Hadn't even seen any video of them until now. I too can rest now. Thanks for posting this.You've made my day.

yeah this fucking clown is now working as a chiropidist 'a mum with 2 children to look after' 'but some musical ideas in the pipeline' can't wait for that- says so on the booklet to colossal youth which I stupidly bought today for 20 quid- i just liked that song clicktalk which doesnt feature her - I'm going in to demand my money fucking money back tomorrow - what fucking cunts- record companies should put up a warning on the cover THIS FUCKING TALENTLESS HALF WIT NOW WORKS AS A CHIROPODIST
Interesting band, I first came across them in the 'net and read a bit more about them in Simon Reynolds impressive "Rip it Up and Start Again". Though nothing great, they added a unique sound to an already highly diverse genre as Post-Punk.
Great!
So nice memories
Thanks

The verse melody in this reminds me of the song "On Broadway", played by Neil Young and others. Almost identical

I don't agree with you at all, but I think they should quote this in the album booklet.
