[Burbujayaz]

[jasmmmm]

Wow! I'd not heard of these guys until now. Great stuff.

[ElGuayoteo]

uuufffff, great band indeed!

makes me want to drive down the highway to montreal with a bag of coke and nothing to loose

[ajldiaz]

Does anybody knows who played the guitar in this video? There are many past member in this band. Pieter Nooten Anka Wolbert Frank Weyzig Willem van Antwerpen Tom Ashton Sharon Soffner Rob Vonk Nina Simic Rui Ramos Lilah Paul Whittlesea Denise Dijkstra Agnes Jasper

[GiorniVenibato]

and the best song of all xymox, their live is really good too, unlike New Order which is horrible.

[manosolo16]

4AD label...

[Adrinishenkov]

busca "El sombrío secreto de la felicidad" en google

[RageAndLust]

My brain seems to work faster while listening to Clan Of Xymox...

[Elvensynthofficial]

My favorite song: clan of xymox - reason

[futari2009]

Driving down a dark road...volume turned way up.

[BlackHeroinFox]

I find it sad that they split, COX was indeed best in its early years. I've seen what Anka and Pieter have said about it, but I wonder what Ronny's side of the story is?

[avocate201]

Will there ever be another label like 4AD?

[AxelBitz]

@avocate201

Or Wax Trax! for that matter...

[newyorkment]

another great band that I'm surprised I even know about. they seem way ahead of their time in some ways.

[Veikun]

~hits replay button for the 5th time~

[alkelliher]

Boy , do I remember this back in the day! Thanks for posting!

[OldishMusic]

He reminds me of Roland Orzabal in this, he should be very proud ;)

[bimbumkutya]

GREAT!

[7Xymox]

how you found this video??? You can find the original song and download it...great video and great song

[v756939]

That guitar sound is a universe on its own!!!

[v756939]

Clan of xymox!!! FTW

[Kaokli]

gothic sounds would be good to hear if it wasn´t so gay

[TheNeuromancer111]

@Kaokli sometimes expression comes thru more passion, wherever your true passin lays; some great artists are gay and their music seems that much better - mayhap there are unresolved issues and feelings lurking within?

[Kaokli]

@TheNeuromancer111

i know what you mean but this gayness is impossible to bear

[pawelski66]

always loved in Poland

[komkom55]

coś niesamowitego jak słucham tego kawałka

[TheIrieviolet]

Am I crazy or does it look like pieter's tongue is pierced?

[EatTheTele]

Goosebumps! Still a super song!

[elivarga]

Extremt skön låt!

[pieternooten]

this track is written by pieter nooten. it's unbelievable that ronny can still perform this live with a straight face: he had not much to do with this track in the studio, rather then adding his comatose vocals and a bit of guitar! shame on this guy!

[pieternooten]

original music by pieter nooten!

[wave339]

epic Gothic rock ;D

[Demohil]

This video is a Rarity ! Thanks!

[melandrolia1]

Exelente tema *-* !

[jgarcia85dc]

i think the horrors copy this band they sound so alike

[ToniW1000]

In Alternation magazine Ronny Moorings claims he made the 'Twist of Shadows' album "entirely independently, without the rest of the musicians who were then on vacation". ?????? This is ridiculous. In fact, it's probably libelous. I wonder if the other band members have seen this interview?? Truly incredible.

[roodkapje88]

@ToniW1000

what a liarr ...anka wrote lots on twist of shadow .. pieter was gone by then but he wrote lots on the first 2 albums .....i ve heard as well that Ronny says in interview's that they where just session band members ...sad and sick ...

[TheAnnavarney666]

Un Clasico de Xymox *o* ....

[fhcarpist]

j avais 20 ans a l epoque j adore encoreeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[txenfu]

Xè quins temps ,visca La Barraca ! i Chocolate !

[D94t2]

Can anyonr tell me what album this is from?

[jutubaeh]

unthinkable w/o the belgium beuys...

[AXOLJ64]

I grew up on this...Always powerful and full of mystique..I would be honored if fellow fans would check out my attempt @ ...youtube.com/watch?v=gL72iXX­RozQ

[tetiontkon]

Ronny Moorings is a very handsome man.

[Exitof99]

Stupid radio cut up edits. It keeps skipping around and messing with my head.

[BRUJAoYANIVA]

I <3 Clan Of Xymox, one of my favorite songs and band...

[carlosruizc1]

Viernes de negro..

[Mascardinho]

@PositiveLastAction : You say so !!! And the 12" is one of the most danceable tracks ever. How beautiful music is able to be :-))

[PositiveLastAction]

@Mascardinho Viva!!!  :-)

[alrauun]

TROIAIO!

[electra1969666]

buenisimaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­

[Granualt]

Supercool!!!

[Enysvar]

11 justin beiber fanboys here

[hungbearlover]

this is just divine and brings back so many good memories...

[grauzone08]

Super souvenir de mon adolescence. Merci - Thank you

[SpearRevolver]

Great song...(:

[VitaMortisCarree]

Amazing to hear this again. I bought the 12inch in what seems to be a previous life, never seen the video before. This is one of the best forgotten (or ignored) songs ever, should have been on all compilation cd's of the genre, it would so stand out on any of em... TY for the reminder, I need to hear the amazing long version NOW!

[nethernity]

Oh ! He was such a cuttie!

[AdamCoffin13]

David Lentini, vocalist of the band Black March, turned me on to Xymox a very long time ago..I am posting this in his memory...

[2009flyinsquirrel]

What a sweet surprise....I didn't even know there was a vid to this song.I almost forgot about this group and then I saw it on a persons profile on Last.Fm.....fantastic song !

[skoty9999n]

ども。。

[prowler3000]

Where are you so far away

it makes no sense

it makes on sense at all......

[lunabird444]

danced to this at The City in PDX back in the day also!!!

[TRaiderEBM]

So do I......

[Obsidi0n]

@1:52 Sacared the shit out of my last night.

[Tengocuentadeyoutub]

good song ,a shame this band doesn't have any solid album.

At least their first albums have SOME good songs.

[BeautyinDiatoms]

I feel like dancing...

I'm so glad I grew up, along with great music like this.

[FrightfulAccountant]

25 years later and it still sounds amazing by totday's standards!

[Hemolymph]

i use to excercize to this in the late 90s, hehe ;-)

[kitcherella77]

Fantastic song,brilliant job from Clan of Xymox !!! I remember the days when younger, I use to dress like them.

[jaypdx4u]

ditto, they days at the city night club here in portland, oregon late 80's and early 90's. upstairs goth nights!

[CrazyAnimatorOfDoom]

@kitcherella77 I do now. haha

[THESEXI3STMAN]

@kitcherella77 youre old and ugly now

[GiordySim]

@THESEXI3STMAN

trovami musica bella adesso!!

ciao

[kitcherella77]

@THESEXI3STMAN Thank you

[PositiveLastAction]

Ah the glory days of music! 'A Day" is most likely one of the the most underrated song ever..opulent and filled with life. The original line up of COX will remain one of my most treasured bands.

[phantomlord91]

This is such a kick ass song! Ronnie looks a bit like Robert Smith in his early carreer :o

[obesamorbida]

i love song!

[Thainazugna0202]

@obesamorbida o/

[Ni5ei]

Funny how people tag this kind of music. Dark wave and Goth are terms which didn't exist back then.

Great video by the way. I was at a few gigs shortly after this was released.

[LordAzanko]

they used this song as the theme for rage of the ninja....good song..thanks to that movie i found this song....

[MIMNED]

This video that I saw for the first time in 1985 represents perfectly the inherent dramatic atmosphere of the song "A Day". Faster images, fading details, all elegantly akin to the old 4AD's style. This is not a video is a masterpiece!

[TheNouveauxdecadence]

Absolute perfection, STUNNING +

[huzoso]

i know!!!!!!!

[TheNouveauxdecadence]

@huzoso

Sigh + Such beauty

[StuperToaster]

judging from these comments, i feel im the only 16 year old who likes this stuff :/

[buddybuk]

@StuperToaster

I'm 16 too. We are the minority. :)

[StuperToaster]

@buddybuk some ppl make it sound hard to just simply know bands like these. Then again the ones that dont know them almost make it seem true

[DJDaniGX]

TEMAZO!!!!!! que recuerdos trae esa melodia de guitarra!!!

[jaypdx4u]

ah the days at the city night club on 13 NW 13th ave in portland ore in the late 80's... the main dance floor downstairs and upstairs was goth industrial. this songs reminds me of upstairs when i was all gothed out. good times many moons ago.

[TheDiscoLemon]

This song is really good

[thevikingpower08]

good amazing song

[3144541]

a day but what a day!!!

[pete200669]

this is the best song of the 80s.. and I did like a lot of Goth and Wave at the time

[kemicon]

@pete200669 I like this song too but the BEST song... Not sure I agree with that.

[ForwardN2Unknown]

New Wave or Darkwave?

[LordAzanko]

darkwave maybe...with a pinch of new wave thrown in for flavor...

[ForwardN2Unknown]

That was meant to be a question to a different poster, but youtube is not putting the comments in the right order.

[kitcherella77]

ΚΟΜΜΑΤΑΡΑΑΑΑΑΑΑ

[MIMNED]

The best COX's song they ever made! I saw this video in the year 1984 and I loved them immediately. The 4AD's image's style is unique, perceptible in "A Day"'s video, frame by frame.

[namaste1968]

Only he's that arogant.

[fordavid71]

gooo amazing!!

[jajapuedovolar]

100000000 STAR :D

AWESOME!!!!!!

[davecarter]

Awesome back then, when I 1st got into them, awesome now ! nuff said

[lowlockunknown]

Agreed, great song, album, later stuff not so much.

[ThePoisonDoor]

Clan of Xymox are indeed a GREAT band... they're from the Netherlands

[jpashby80]

God hes the god of goth! hes got the voice!!! AWESOME the way he distorts his vocals...I 'm loving this band!!!

[kemicon]

Man I love Xymox from back in the day, not as enthused about the later stuff though.

[bxymox]

Get swoopy and stompy, or "swompy" on the goth club dance-floor fot this one.

[gitane333]

I just want to thank CLAN for the song..

[shreivox]

this guy is getting better as a singer through the years despite many others in goth scene

[carpenoctem66]

The pitch is a little high on this video, but it still sounds awesome!

[morenazaplus]

5***** ;)

[RoderickUsherSS]

In this vid the dinger looks great with the new wave hair and all. I wonder how much this guy got payed for dressing up like a goth teen a few years later. God knows what happened...

[TorianKel]

Too many vocals, not enough Godfrey Ho sampling

[lowlockunknown]

The whole disk is great, kind of a difficult find. What in the hell does sexual preferance have any thing to do with it ? If all the homosexuals were taken out of music you might find out you have little, or nothing to listen too.

[Thesagga]

me tiene bastante loco

[moneyllica]

the only good song of this faggets

[syzygywell]

if you are going to insult gay people at least spell it right, it's faggot not fagget, ignoramus.

[watchlar76]

Haha..awesome!

[swamidurchananda]

this one favorite song of brother benjamin

[retromantics6]

Mierda que me gusta este tema!!! xD

[DrHeckill]

Great .... where are they??

[TejrnarG]

Not sure if i understand your question, but they come from The Netherlands. :)

[creten69]

ive neede this song so bad.like a nice case of poison ivy and a burning hot shower.Its like heaven,no killing joke

[darthblutkind]

i love the song but i hate this edit of it it misses loads out boo hoo

[skatetolive34]

this is @#$#$ amazing! at age thirty 4 i got some retro digging to do for sure!been craving this lately- here it is!

[kayrosx1]

What a tune,takes me back! In hindsight though,bass players hairs a bit shit!!

[Krringur]

Truly a great band ,,,all the best from iceland where Xymox had and has many fans

[VampyrKaren]

The best song of Xymox ever!

[chachamanuloli]

No....... they have so many.......don't know wich one to choose

[jmangell]

Man this takes me back. Xymox is one of those bands really lost in the haze of new wave music, but they were incredible.

[RadicalOrganisms]

THIS BAND IS SO FUCKING AWESOME

[petrusaloisius]

AAnd fo now I cant ebven find songs of other same like nbands as Viva Voce, Social Security, I SPy , Secret Sounds and more and more New Wave bands from the eighties in Holland here on the tube. Pls help me.

[petrusaloisius]

Didnt even know that they were from myu own Country HOLLAND. Good god what a cultur barbaric country we have without any resopect for artist of our own land....

[cronostasi]

questi si che erano bei tempi.ora non mi piacciono

[Bubblex16]

[televangelism]

He's incredibly hot on this video

[Nicolassaracchini]

EXCELENTE

[Alienacionglobal]

[ThePoisonDoor]

TERRIFIC! For ever

[oldirtydawson]

Wasn't 4.A.D. one of the best record labels? : )

[HENRIVAMPPP]

TU TUUU TURUUU RUUUUU RUUU..

[muertosis]

i love xymox but i think this version is missing a lot of xmox feeling i said...............sorry

[SweetSweetWaldo]

I heard it late one night on a college radio station in fall of '85, but the hippie at the mall record store was like "Zymot?," so I had to go to the city to get it!

[villesangel69]

great song!

[axellito80tas]

porq penen eso de marcar q no ese vido es bueno es musica como todosss a mi me gusta mucho cla of ximox soy su fans

[Shoreth]

Como siempre e dicho, Todo tiempo pasado fue mejor.......

[japierdoleokurwa]

this song is always with me on my ipod ;D

[RoseMilenkova]

My favourite Clan Of Xymox song!

[Knoedelhans]

Grandios!!! Was für eine Zeit! Xymox in ihren Anfängen...

[darinnear]

Makes me feel strong about my youth.

[ThePoisonDoor]

Superb, and groundbreaking! sounds very New Order

[Retaxio]

Super! :)

[Raszagal2]

simplemente estupenda

[jonnathr]

bought the 12" years ago, still gloomily classic 4ad cool!

[juliomtb]

this song reminds me of the first time i got stoned

[oldirtydawson]

The beginning of the song sounds like a vintage Mega Man level song to me.

[rutzen21]

I SWEAR TO GOD IT IS!
