THE CULT - THE WITCH

[hartley81848184]

I had this song played for my wife at our wedding reception. I dedicated it to her. All the old folks were shocked a little bit - but hell, it was good for them to hear something different.

[skydiveNY]

I had a Vegas stripper dancing to an eight minute version of this song, in a club. I was hypnotized from the first second until long after the song ended. I'll never forget good old whats her name. I'll never forget what she did to me.

[Sinistersaint686]

found this on the soundtrack to a 90's movie... it sounds like it could have just come out yesterday, its that great. absolutely timeless

[julypad]

magic........!!!!!!!

[Gruntfuttock100]

havn't heard this an an age. What a fucking tune!

[moonmiester]

I think you have to listen beyond the lyris to appreciate a little bit of magic. One of my all time greatest.

[Noentiendo64FTW]

I remember when this album came out. The fashion in music around that time wer the MTV Unplugged records that started with Eric Clapton and Paul McCartney and then virtually every band. I tink The Cult just saw that trend, showed it the middle finger and released an album called "Electric", with this song as it first single. Hell yeah!

[kajus44]

Film nakręcony kalkulatorem na lampach nixie. Szacun.

A utwór zajebisty.

[darkgreencrows13]

@fuknukll I bet.

[percyzeppelin]

i used to love listening to this at 5 in morning.

[redrock1965]

first time i have heard this ,,,,,,love it ,,,,,bloody cult are so good !!

[BohemianConspiracy]

cool rythmn section... it has a typical dance rock feel in it... or should i say a madchester sound on it... with heavier voice and heavier guitar on it...

This video reminds me to the cemetery scene in Easy Rider...and they are kind of crazy ...they even laugh between tombstones !... why not after all... those kind of places needs more crazy joys and not only tears...just a celebration from a life to another life... cool and subversive video

[Fraustt]

This vid is amazing.. has like this acid-drenched occult feel to it.. GREAT!

[bmlrealist]

WOW!!! I FORGOT ABOUT THIS SONG. SUPER!!!

[TheSimonRowell]

Such a dirty riff, great, great underated band.

[DeepBlueDJinn]

I saw them live, they take the stage and don't stop.

[greenfairies13]

christmas gifts at sweet soul sister. more?

[greenfairies13]

Thanks for healing me. See your jokes.

[riffmagos]

Great song for strutting down the street. I dare anyone to find a better. :-p

[MythicShot]

saw them in Seattle & Dublin and going to one in Dublin again next month..

[Lili85972]

Grande banda!!!!!!!!Adoro!!

[andrekkezero]

Greatest band in the 80´s :))

[andrekkezero]

Greatest bando in the 90s :))

[kissthis1goodbye]

Ian Astbury is one of rock's finest singers.... And he always looks so awesome on stage. Love those jackets and hats

[rodsling]

damn good song

... it feels like...somebody... put something...somebody puts something in my drink...

ok then ...the girl, the weed, the gun and and... a Sega?

well, i ll take it...

[TheTinatatina]

loved this song.....omg !!! how many years passed since than? always nice to hear it again

[djmusicjac]

not sure whether to put this in the graveyard or witch playlist, ha, ha, awesome tune

[lackocult1]

yeah, saw them in 2000 or so in new york city in the roseland ballroom...kick ass show.. got my leather pants on...some coke...bet your ass that it was a great night..

[noisysoul]

It sounds like The Jesus and Mary Chain. Listen to Reverence

[MonokelJohn]

Everybody need a Sega baby! Everybody need a Sega!

[captaincomputa]

Boss band da Cult,Ian Asbury's a Scouser

[dianebottle2008]

this reminds me.............. have you seen the muffin man?

[seichodan]

Killer Beat - Saw them in '87 when Electric broke - This tune reminds me of cross of Beck and White Stripes...

[PrncssTiffany1]

fucking awesome. Saw them in concert 1989. He had the nicest long black hair I've ever seen on a man ever

[stanleysoldman]

groovy tune

[seeknature4u]

IAN is Awesome. One Of the Best LIVE Bands, For Sure. Seen Them a Dozen+.

[gamfreq]

When you need 2+ guitarists to do what one could do easily there is obviously a big difference in talent. GNR was great until Slash left. Now I wouldn't invite them to play at my cousin's birthday party.

On the other hand The Cult was good as long as they had Ian and Billy the only two constant members.

[petilili1]

Best beat ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sammydwm]

LA Band?

LOL

Everybody in Glasgow had Cult or Death Cult drawings on their leathers back in 85 or so.

[kern0099]

These guys rehashed the Cure, AC/DC, plus others and made it better. I'm going to Google them I haven't heard of them in ages. Last of the great LA bands really. They bury Guns 'n Poses. They should do a revival.

[urbancoyote8]

@kern0099 . They're British

[kern0099]

@kern0099 British living in or at least largely based there in their heyday. You couldn't go to any club or party around Hollywood without running into a member of the Cult in the late 80's early 90's. It was like an LA rock mania that lasted even after Nirvana broke and you stopped hearing about GNR. Anyway, point taken though, they are British.

[Lukith66]

@kern0099 no body kills Guns N' Roses, no matter how good the Cult are.

[kern0099]

@Lukith66 Uh, that's where you're mistaken. G'nR never heard an arrangement they couldn't fuck up completely. If there was ever a band who should have listened to their production team, it's them. Oh well, good window dressing though.

[Lukith66]

@kern0099 nah, best rock band goin', very talented group, far from posers, they were just misunderstood lost souls with too much talent to control.

[kern0099]

@Lukith66 Well...maybe revival was a poor choice of words. They should do a marketing blitz and borrow the money for it, keep their same touring and production budget, since the performances are sound on both fronts. Just get their name out there again...what would you call that? People are so tired of new shit bands and there are still guys like this floating around. I think it's a no brainer to go and see their gig, but then punters don't know, do they?

[codge2112]

@kern0099 Revival???? they never went away really ,on the road all the time and new music out now,playing uk in 3 weeks time.

[musupapa]

I heard this song first time in 1994, it sounded rare to me and I though WTF is this? But after 3 plays, and years, and concerts, I can say that its one oft their live hits they play with Lil Devil, Sun King and others 15 songs !!!

[romulus62moondust]

never heard this before nice still one of my favorite bands

[bassfreako]

best song ever, de les tipota!

[THUDTP]

Kick ass RNR

[TubeFreakJonas]

Very helpful girlfriends in the video! Tune is from Cool World soundtrack, I cannot believe this success inspired them to do the "The Cult" CD.

Then again Bob Rock can make a train wreck of anything...

Still this song sounds great live, has a real sexy groove to it. You know I think the Cult are really at their best when they are not trying too hard to be this or that.

[chompypunk890]

WOW! This band is Fucking great!

[theblackrydermusic]

yes.

[holmsdale1959]

this song fucking rocks

[sylvierider]

love the beat too!

[bloodlyeye]

this is awesome for a video of the early 90's



[TWISTED2967]

I JUST LOVE THIS CULT SONG

IT WAS SO UNLIKE THE REST OF THERE STUFF AND STILL IS

[thereallybigj]

really really really dig this song!!!

[Greetling]

absoluter KULT dieser Song

[razamanaz90]

Best Cult song!!!!! super video!!!!

[FagFromVenus]

damn,cool tune!

[Gypsy4119]

Awesome share Peter.. first a first !!! Yeah baby !! (:

[Twighlight100]

i love that song and its rhythm is fantastic ...YES !

[hartley8184]

Wow. Wouldn't try to classify this music. Don't need to anyway. I just listen and love.

[Mikeybear4]

only one word for this band...Legendary!

[bubbamackdaddy69]

this song sounds amazing in my Trans Am full blast...love the drums..

[sailmakers]

Raw and banging!

Spot on....

[MAGENDY]

IAN---YOUR VOICE IS SO......BEAUTIFULLLllllllll...­...........ANGEL\mm/

[frankiegrrl]

does this remind anyone else of the cemetery scene in Easy Rider? Where they're all tripped out?

[caymansbanker]

The Cult - one of the best bands of all time.

[gonnahaveariot]

this is good, but i love the old Cult, i miss that Billy's Gretsch white falcon, you know what i mean..

the real Cult !

anyway..

Long live Ian Astbury and Billy Duffy!

[Lovesock69able]

Three rocks, a fragment of bone, chinese noodles, a coherent national dental plan. (katalina translates) Things that have nothing to do with each other.

[afuzzorchestra]

words cannot express how much I love this

[loulame]

That's what I'm talking about! Yeah!

[dnlrsn9]

another pearl by the greatest band ever

[stardaddyo9]

my all time favorite cult song

[GrantStoke]

There is a real groove on this song which is infectious,CFFC

[dnlrsn9]

amazing from the gesatest cult

[cotmullion]

It's shot like the acid trip in Easy Rider. Great song.

[pinworms70]

I knew a dude that said he was a Warlock and could predict the future. I kicked him in his nads and he doubled over in pain. He never saw that shit comin I tell ya....

[johnnycake020]

turned his nuts into a couple of PIKELETS

[brazjiujitsu92]

HAHAHAHA. That made my day.

[fuknukll]

@pinworms70 - Dude was obviously a fucking idiot. Any Warlock worth his cloak & hat doesn't have any need to brag. Sorcery & clairvoyancy are two very different things. A warlock won't see an assailant coming anymore than a clairvoyant could turn you into a toad. It's the Mathematicus who's truly dangerous....

[fuknukll]

@fuknukll - (stupid character limit). The Mathematici break the entire universe down to equations, thus are able to fuck with things big time - couple that with the amorality & cold callous approach of reductionist science &/or a sociopath, that's one dangerous mo-fo. I'm just a mere mortal, but I thought you could use some info'.....

[jonship]

not bad at all!

[pennchick]

i like the longer version from the cool world soundtrack. but this is still great.

[L3dZ3P]

Love this :D

[blauek]

I love this song too! My only complain is that it sounds like it was recorded kinda muffled....like Im hearing it thru a wall on another room...(I have it from a soundtrack album and its the only muffled song). I want to blast the guitars and trebles like all my rock music.

[rosebaum]

i honestly didn't believe this was the real video until I saw Ian singing....

love this song !!!

[TheRizvo]

version from ian's solo album great

[Mr61761gk]

1st time i've seen this video i'm a huge cult fan cool video

[cookamidgera]

This is a great rock song.....long live the Cult!!!!!!!!

[Jusstjim]

She's got what you need!!!!

[gypsyqueen1964]

Love the distortion! This vid reminds me of Easy Rider when they are tripping out in the cemetary. Great video.

[JonathanRingo]

This is some great stuff.The extended version with Billy playing over that souped up beat just kills."What she got is good".

[WavelengthRose]

kick ass...

[cffc2880]

It doesn't get much better than this, except maybe Resurrection Joe or Gods Zoo. CFFC!!!!!

[stockcar4d]

[ammie72]

[addomino]

Very good video and awesome music

I think the video was inspired by movie Easy Rider, littlebit

Cheers!

[ammie72]

Hah Hah my ex is a man and believe me this is about him!!!!!!

[Rewipeslideass]

Molly Ringwald in the beginning and then Moby making out with his twin brother with a hard boiled egg in their mouths..Crazy!!

[lostandwounded]

great stuff

[tszklarz]

I've always loved this song, but this song went from great to legendary when i saw a girl dance to this at a strip club. One of the top ten moments of my life!

[sanbaro]

Oh man! The dream come true!!!

I should be so lucky!

[brooklynflow]

Very Nice non hardrock but alternative rock song one of Cult earliest songs good tune and sound. Aparently are now doing shows in the USA thats what i heard on TV som time ago.

[oldphoque]

The drums and percussion on this is just awesome. Great song.

[pasc1977]

the cult had something very special that no other band had... and this song is very different of all the things that they've done...in a word excellent!

[borkan01]

Ian Astbury is god!!! u can also find other version in an album from their singer Ian spirit/light/without, much bigger!!!.

that album had bad critics, but is one of my favs, experimental sounds, check it out on itunes is fckg crazy!!!!!

[zipzagger]

This is from the "Cool World" soundtrack in case anyone was wondering. I don't know if it is on another Cult album or not.

[johnnycake020]

Its on PURE CULT, dude : )

[gabizm]

Marvelous piece! love.

[tupoy75]

Благадарствую!
