I just listened to the other (newer) version of this song, and I definitely prefer this one to the other. I just sense more feeling in this older version.
Esta version de esta cancion luce tan sombria, sobria, sobrecogedora, se me eriza la piel oyendo esta cancion, me fascina la vos del intreprete, grave y profunda.
Great 5 part article about Xymox in Unruhr, the German music magazine. Comment section at the bottom of article explains the wiki war and why Ronny is banned by Wiki for abusive behaviour (repeatedly deleting Pieter and Anka from the history). Fascinating reading.
What's with the Xymox wiki war? I hear Ronny is blocked 9 times for vandalizing page and also sockpuppet as wiki-user 'Knowitall". he keep on deleting Anka and Pieter's name from the xymox page and wiki keeps banning him. Why does he want to delete A&P? Was a bad break up? Xymox was best when they were in it.

Uwielbiam klimaty starego 4AD. To była szczera do bólu muzyka z ogromem emocji, tworzona z prawdziwym zaangażowaniem. Jak zresztą większość w tym czasie. Ech...gdzie te czasy...
Sublime Sublime Sublime..sad that COX basically dissolved after Twist of Shadows and Phoenix. All subsequent Ronny Moorings projects proved to be substandard by a mile and really the band should have been renamed. Pieter and Anke were two thirds of Xymox and when they departed all later releases could not hold a candle.
@PositiveLastAction not really o_o creature & hidden faces were brilliant albums
if you ask me. Although their live album is by far the best 'greatest hits' album of clan of xymox & probably the best album alongside 'clan of xymox' & no words of subsequent pleasures
This is my favorite COX song. I like this version the most because of the instrumental build up after the "I'm twisted in these streets" part. When done live, he sings over that part (4:07) and brings in the "I'm shivering, I quiver" sooner. The original is best, but I've been lucky enough to have heard it in person 3 times and loved it.
@Tengocuentadeyoutub Para mi es el mejor album de Clan of xymox, es mi opinion. He oido otros de sus discos y son muy suaves y luminosos para mi gusto. Pero por los gustos se hicieron los colores. Saludo.
@Tengocuentadeyoutub ¿Como se llama ese album?. He oido algunos de los albumes de Heroes del silencio, pero no se cual es el primero. Amo la voz de Bumbury.
"Heartbreakingly beautiful" is apropos for this one...and the guitar solo after "I am twisted in the streets" elevates me to another emotional/spiritual plane altogether
ehila ciao raga , mi associo con voi grandi i xymox , insieme ai cure depeche , sister , bauhaus, ame fa impazzire pure medusa dei xymox , mi fa venire i brividi , cmq great band davvero.....
Eheh...mica tutti sentivano i Duran e gli Spandau in Italia negli 80's, fortunatamente! Grandissimi Xymox, per me una folgorazione assoluta insieme ai Sisters, Smiths, Mission, Cure (i primi...), Bauhaus, Joy Div.... "Louise" è una perla di quegli anni fra le piu' luccicanti.
Now this is the best version, the original. I hate how Ronny changed the last part when he used to scream out "Louise, Louise, Looooouuuuiiiiisssseeeee" (unless I am mistaken and that's Peter singing here). I miss Clan of Xymox when it was Ronny and Peter instead of Ronny's "I've got a famous Goth band name and a bunch of studio backup members in Goth clothing, so lets play electonic music instead of Darkwave like we used to."
I bought this album in 1987 and have listened to it a thousand times, yet never get tired or bored of it. I wish they'd play again in San Francisco, it's been too long since they last played here.
Whatever the genre, it is my top album of all time. A lot of people prefered the self-titled debut but this one is so beautifully dark and depressing - perfect for high school. Theme 1, Louise, and Back Door are THE BEST!!!
