  • I'm so sick of people who talk shit about today's music on old music videos. I love this song as much as anyone but to pretend that this was what was happening in music in 1995 is fucking dumb. It's like Right Said Fred never existed. There's plenty of great music happening today. If you haven't bothered to look for good music recently, that's your problem, not the industry's problem because it's not like Belly was carving up the Top 40 back in the day either.

  • I love the Wheel, Catherine

  • Actually, I'm 33. And I saw them at The Lakewood Civic Auditaorium in 1995-96 when the two bands toured w/ Jewel.For the record you blind fool, my post stated that " I see and hear it ALL Y_E_A_R".

    See that last word there, pal? Let me spell it for you "YEAR". As in I see and hear all the crappy music immitating the 80's that comes to the campus/c-bus all year. Idiot and moron? YOU were than one who couldn't properly read a full post!?!? H/ADD acting up kiddy, better take your perscription.

  • I saw them do this together in NYC back in 95/96 when they toured together. Epic show!!

  • ...I just thought i still liked them for nastalgia, but i've been listening to catherine wheel,belly,lush all nite...and i gotta say it too...The modern music all sucks now.(I've a soft spot for the yeah yeah yeahs and dresden dolls). It's similar how our music grew outta the crap from the late 80'S....Living on a major campus i see and hear it all year. I was thinking i wasgetting old. lol

  • @mattnnalan living on a major campus, you see and hear it all do you? Are you fucking nuts? How old are you anyway? Christ, it's comments from idiots like you that make me want to give up! You better stay comfortable and warm on your "major campus". Moron.

  • Dude I have a confession to make . I'm a little embarrased but here goes anyway. I always liked this song but when I saw the video I just asuumed that Catherine Wheel was the name of the girl in this video not the band.Does this make me an asshole? If so i apoligize to those I have offendended .

  • 4 wendy's mom?

  • the video concept and design has more humor & color than the actual band members (except for guest Tanya D., who looks really into it). This band needed a breakout star--sometimes great musicianship and vocals aren't enough, you need a personality.

  • @themoonspinner that's when it stops being about art and all about image, and that's what's wrong with music today. the catherine wheel were just fine

  • @themoonspinner On the contrary!.I must say Rob Dickenson is about the most intriguing, intense personality I have ever come across in rock! AND his music and words ALSO convey all that! Which is more than you can say for many so-called "rock-personalities". Face it These guys had it ALL! They where just too good for the masses.

  • @themoonspinner On the contrary!.I must say Rob Dickinson is about the most intriguing, intense personality I have ever come across in rock! AND his music and words ALSO convey all that! Which is more than you can say for many so-called "rock-personalities". Face it These guys had it ALL! They where just too good for the masses.

  • ....she's a volume freak...

  • this version can be found on Catherine Wheel's cd single for the song, the cd version is lacking Tanya's verses (but keeps her backing vox on choruses). 1995 again for a moment :)

  • .....that is so beautiful and good and I never knew about it.........one can be so into song writing of that period......Catherine Wheel, Pond, Tanya Donelly and Kristin Hersh, the Breeders-rather-than-the-pixie­s for me anyway, I'm a fan of Kim Deal.....and Husker Du........all of these song writers did so much better than today's writers.....well done whoever uploaded that.

  • @martinheth i completely agree =)

  • @martinheth i agree =)

  • great memories

  • /watch?v=vOs7NQlk1z4

    Catherine Wheel - The nude broke my heart

  • Im a belly fan and throwing musis fan and i love Catherine wheel!

  • It 's a shame this song don't have more than 1 million views. Maybe it sounded too european

  • I need that version with Tanya

  • I love how going from trying to see who's doing main vocals on Two Step by Throwing Muses on youtube, then going to wikipedia, from there to here to look up Tanya Donelly comes to me finding this great song, by two artists I love that I've not heard before.

  • Ahh the 90's.Clinton was in office. The economy was good. We were not fighting two wars.9/11 had not yet happened so there was not a sense of paranoia and fear. The Music was great.....Then came Bush need I say more?

  • Comment removed

  • Wow I havn't heard this song in years.I always liked it. There were Many heroin songs in the 90s'.I remember hearing this on the radio but I never knew who sang it. It is amazing that when you have not heard a song in years how it can instantly bring you back to the year it was released. 95 I think it was. That summer and 96 some great memories.i was listening to Pearl jam Gin Blossoms Counting Crows Blues Traveler Toad the wet Sprocket damn there were some good songs on the radio in the 90s

  • its so weird hearing tanya sing the second verse when you're so used to the album version. still a great video, though.

  • The height of 90's alt rock

  • Remember I was here.Thai

  • This is so awesomel. She's suffering....

  • I definitely prefer this one to the album version. Thought that one isn't exactly bad. If this is your first exposure to CW, find Crank.

  • I was stoked when I found out the lead singer of Catherine Wheel collaborated with BT. The resultant song, "The Unbreakable", is deluxe fucking win.

  • So wonderful. Perfection.

  • Is it just me, or is this song totally the shit?

  • @IsabellaInc - apparently just you. Until now!

  • I had forgotten all about this song

  • Wow, dunno how I missed this in the 90's. I thought I'd seen and heard everything Tanya had released.

  • His voice is so dreamy and makes me relaxed. <3

  • Wow. I'm in love.

    I have to go do research until the computer screen makes my eyes bleed.

  • Saw Catherine Wheel and Charlatans UK at the Hollywood Palladium back in the 90's. What a terrific show (once I escaped the mosh pit!)!

  • And what she see's she cant believe !

  • back in 94' /95'. what a great song. Had it on a cassette tape. Didn't know Donelly sung in Belly.

  • nice melody going on between Donelly and Dickinson

  • When this came out they were touring together and playing cal state Fullerton, they cancelled still have copy of ticket stub

  • @betoruv I've posted some live Belly form J.Stewart show

  • I was lucky to see them together on that tour up here in Portland, OR. Excellent show. Man I miss the 90's.

  • I had tickets to this show as well. There was a weird incident, because my sister couldn't get someone to cover for her at work and we went anyway, so she got fired and we didn't even get to see them. At least we got to tell Rob and Merk about it a couple years later and I've seen them since then. I did miss getting to see Belly, but I have seen Tanya play solo shows and with Throwing Muses. All great bands.

  • Too bad this didn't get more airplay back in 95. I completely missed this gem back in the day.

  • Wow!!! It's been EONS since I last heard this!  :)

  • Back when music was good...

    This is great

  • Great band. Bring's back memories of the cute chick I knew who loved britpop. She was a cutie.

  • Awesome song, awesome band.

    Can't believe I'll finally see you in Austin. Thanks for coming.  Best artist ever!!!!

  • They are playing in Austin Texas next month -- cant wait to catch them on this side of the pond. Stoked!

  • Cool vid, never saw it before. This was one of the best albums of the 90's, imo. Awesome band.

  • That's Tanya Donelly formerly of the band Belly. Ever heard "Feed the Trees"? What a voice!

  • This is the original version. It's Tanya Donelly. Better recognize.

  • Excellent song from an excellent band.

  • I LOVED Catherine Wheel. Music today really is garbage (or else I'm too old now to get it).

  • @trashywilma dude, I think music today is garbage too, you're not the only one, and I'm 17 so you're definitely not too old to get it, it's just garbage :P

  • @4242424242lol It's good to hear that from someone that is young. I was in my 20s in the 90s and todays music does not even come close. It makes me realize I am not just some old dude.I like guitar based music. Well written songs with a lot of guitar. drums and bass. Let me know if there is any of that today because all I hear is dance and hip hop by people that don't play instruments but instead scratch a needle on a record.How much of that shit can anyone listen too?

  • @MrBuc128 there is tooo many people out there who listens to that kind of garbage you're talking about :( and there is almost nothing new that is good, so I'm searching for music from the 70s - 90s. that's what keeps me going ;)

  • @MrBuc128 You will be glad to know I am 15 and enjoy this kind of music. NO ONE in my school knows Catherine Wheel cept me. Hell im guessing like 10% of my school know who Nirvana is. I hate todays generation. I want the 90's. Now im just rambling on. Lol

  • @DX4LIFFE well don't just sit around and get jaded friend...do something about it. You're obviously unique. So, it's up to you to start a good band or something, I'll be listening for it ;)

  • @jinkybelle Oh no man I've got one goin with my buddy. I actually told him to check out this band in paticular because they have a huge musical influence on me.

  • @DX4LIFFE You're not rambling on. Music in the 90's was all about meaning and feeling. Glad to know you are among the living. Peace

  • @MrBuc128 I hear you dude. My wife and I were in our early 20s back in the 90s. No worries, just college and good times together. What happened?

  • Comment removed

  • @MrBuc128 You might like My Morning Jacket

  • @4242424242lol yes I'm not so old;) I'm 18! xD

  • @trashywilma You are not too old and yes today's music sucks. GenXers know how to make music that continues to be be played but not forgotten.

  • what about the fat guy going on screen at 1:20???

  • Ah, Tanya Donnelly -- one of the great alternativechicks of the 90's!

  • I find her sooooooooooo sexy... her looks and that VOICE.... OH MAN!!!! hehe love her

  • You fall in love with her looks and melt away when she speaks. Thats Tanya for sure.

  • Try the 80s... She co-founded Throwing Muses w/her stepsister, Kristin Hersh, a decade before Belly came along.

  • DAMN! That Tanya Donelly is smokin.

  • Catherine Wheel, ah the memories....damn there really was some good music in the 90's wasn't there? I feel old. This is one of the better songs about heroin by the way...

  • haha

  • @kdub10009 The music was great back in the 90's This song brings back memories of college and being in my 20's.

  • Crap, I completely forgot about this song. Catherine Wheel were trying to forego their signature shoegaze sound by this time...

  • GREAT song! What a throwback to the mid 90's. Cool

  • Love this song.

  • SIMPLY...IRRESISTIBLE!!!!!!...­..

  • I think Catherine Wheel's frontman is the cousin of Iron Maiden's

  • You are a moron, even if Rob (Dickinson, yes Iron Maiden's lead singer's cousin) would have the down syndrome, what's in it to comment? Moron!

  • kiss my ass dipshit, it's called an observation you pathetic dumbass. Go sensor your own posts moronic asswipe

  • Still a moron.

  • censorship. Not sensorship. Still a moron.

  • And you're both boring and redundant, do you get out a red pen and mark your monitor anytime you read a blog trying to find typos so you can 'make yourself feel better'? Wow, that bumps you up doesn't it? Poor little man :) You twit, are a moron, kindly go play in traffic.

  • SO...both cousins named their respective bands after torture devices... I wonder if their Granny had any " toys in the cellar?" lol

  • Well, there's the whole thing of Rob not joining Maiden until they had been around close to six years...

  • refrain from insulting people. Just makes you out to be the moronic one.

  • This album rocks! Do yourselves a favor and listen to it with headphones!

  • muito legal... it makes me want to do heroin even more... she is so hot

  • This has a very spacial sound.

  • I think this was an excellent song from this album, so underrated. I luv it, one of the best on this album. I luv them forever. now re-unite!!=P tanya has such a melodic voice...

  • saw them live in Houston years ago and they were awesome.

  • achtung achtung. hier spricht die cultpolizei. cultverdechtige! sie sind um zin gelt. widerstand ist zwecklos *G*

  • I haven't listen to this song in a long time, I had forgotten what a great song it is. Tanya is great!

  • This version (with Tanya Donelly) was the radio version of the song. I don't think she was removed from it, I think it was done after the album version was finished.

  • tHE BEST OF 90

  • classic

  • Some versions of the song dont have Tanya's singing on it. Exactly what album would I have to buy to get her voice on the song?

  • Why did they take Tanya Donelly out of the final cut? I think she's great.

  • Rob's voice could melt a titanium chastiy belt off Mother Teresa.

    Peace.

  • Tonya D makes everything better.

  • Amen!

  • Judy stares at the sun. I, on the other hand, prefer to stare at Tanya Donelly.

  • Sadly no, not since 2000. I think it's time for a reunion.

  • love the song..just don't like the way they dubbed Tanya's voice in the 2nd verse. Thx for this.

  • just amazing

  • What year was this?

  • 1995

  • Brilliant !!

  • Thank you for this, you are truly fab.

  • That Tanya.....what a fox.

  • GREAT SONG! OK VIDEO THOUGH...

  • My favourite Catherine Wheel song. Anyone ever notice the guy fixing the set over Tanya's shoulder at 1:16 and the in full view of Rob at 1:20!

  • That's amazing, I never noticed it before and now I see it every time! there's a dude out there "in space" spinning the mirrorball!!

  • I always thought he was there on purpose in full view since Rob said this video was supposed to be inspired by bad Ed Wood films, where you could see the strings, etc... Maybe it was a flub? I never really thought of it before now, lol

  • This certainly captured a moment in time as surely if someone had taken a picture. Great song.

  • This version is better than the CD, 'cause on the CD, the freakin' record company had them edit out Tanya's lead after Belly split up. Their freaking loss!

  • Good way for corporate to put their interests over art. For What???? To ruin a great mix!!!

  • I agree and like the video-version with Tanya better, too. But although Tanya was edited out on the album version, there is (thank god) a single to be had with her on it.

  • I agree and like the video-version with Tanya better, too. But although Tanya was edited out on the album version, there is (thank god) a single to be had with her on it.

  • its genius are the band still goin?

  • I pity those that will never allow themselves the chance for the discovery of an esoteric classic like this song/video.

  • Alright, one more. The melancholy vibe on this song captures how I felt at that time. I saw Belly and Catherine Wheel in October '95 and Tanya sang this with CW. I remember her squirting water through her teeth at the bass player and wishing that was me playing bass.

  • I was 21 and on my own for the first time when this song came out. I haven't heard it in 12 years and I have played it 3 times in a row today.

  • rock on, I love this song im old and appreciate this. Im probably close to your age give or take. Glad you found it I love this song.

  • kdevus,that was by far the most eloquent,poignant comment I've ever had the pleasure of reading on You-Tube.Your verve and insight are magnanimous and moving,...poetic,even.

  • I miss the 90s: Smashing Pumpkins, blind melon, soundgarden, pusa, silverchair, nirvana, electrafixion, radiohead, belly, joan osborne, Alanis Morrisette, Heather Nova, Placebo............I miss 90's. I wish they came back

  • NICE SONG...WITH A NICE GUITAR..

  • wow iam 30 now......

    so tanya must be near 40???

  • this brings back a lot of great memories!

  • Tanya looks at home on that space ship!

  • this song totally rocks! and especially with tanya. i still listen to belly and the breeders and throwing muses. ah, 95 what a good year you were for music.

  • This song is my Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds. Thank you Catherine Wheel and Tanya!

  • I got chills from this. I almost got emotional. It's like a part of my youth that I just reclaimed.

  • I totally agree!!!

  • I totally agree. 1995!! Crap I was 15!! I miss the 90's.

  • I am 26 now, when this shit was good, it was good, now its just great. And I totally agree with all of you. Reclaiming a part of my youth each day. This is what I long for, reclamation of ALL of my youth, so by the time I'm 60, pending death, I will be back to like I was when I was a teeny bop. As the great Perry Farrell put it once, "Children are innocent, a teenagers fucked up in the head, adults are even more fucked up, and elderlies, are like children."

  • love this song i miss belly heheh and catherine wheel

  • One of the top 5 heroin songs ever recorded. Magnificent.

  • Love both CW and Tanya, but is it me, or is she given a lead vocal on this that isn't on the CD. I think she is strickly backing vocals there, I'll have to pull the CD and check again.

  • Yeah this was a different mix.

  • CD she only does backing vocals. This was the radio track. I like this version better.

  • The only album I listened to sophomore year of college. GAWD, I miss CW!

  • Thanks for calling your group after me lol from Catherine.J

  • I love you tanya donelly

  • Always this great song sounds in my head, for me one of the best of the 90's. Tanya Donelly and Catherine Wheel thanks for this !!! - Aldo.

  • oh...almost makes me cry. i love the catherine wheel. i never saw them live. their music is everything-- pain, love, wonder ("strange fruit"), anger ("chrome"), i can go on and on. ill shut up now.

  • The 90's was the best decade for the music on the entire world, including Latin America.

  • 90s alternative music video were the freaking best. Stone Temple Pilots, Silverchair among others. :) It's so nastalgic it's just so beautiful and takes you to a nice place. :)

  • Totally forgot how much I loved these guys.

  • I agree with zang2nd. t.d. does have a bit more "say" in the singing. Glad she's from my city! I thank you the one who posted.

  • It's great to be from Boston

  • Wow...This is an alternate version of the popular video AND the popular version of the song. T.D. has a more extensive vocal in this one.

  • You dont know what the hell your talking about.

  • Wow, you are a true moron, congratulations!

  • I had absolutely no idea there was a video to this!  GO figure ...

  • remember dancing to this at the club in my party days..

  • me too

  • I read somewhere that they took most of her vocals off the song for the album and single because her group Belly's album that had come out didn't sell very well. Guess they had already shot the video before they made that decision??? Whatever the reason - I like this version with more Tanya better and it definitely makes it even more of a definitive 90's track!

  • thanks for posting. i LOVE this band!

    most underrated band of the 1990s

  • YES THEY ARE

  • I saw them live in 95 or 96 in Philly, and they were amazing. I was actually there see Wax, of "Southern California" -Spike Jonze fame. They were scheduled opener, but they cancelled when I got to the door. Catherine Wheel played one the most amazing live sets ever. They had this huge bannet behing them, and just killed it on "Judy"s staring at the Sun". Thanks for the video,

  • One of the most underrated bands ever.

  • I love this song. Tonya's vocals give the song more brilliance.

  • I can listen to this song 800 times a day and not get sick of it. I like this video because it's just totally 90's. I love the bright colors that the videos had in the 90's.

  • "I can listen to this song 800 times a day and not get sick of it."

    Totally agree.

  • creepy

  • Agreed! Very underrated band of the 90s. Tanya's a great addition, beautiful voice as always. Brings back memories from my high school days.

  • thanks for posting. i LOVE this band!
