This song always scared me in a way. When I heard this, I WAS in a kind of paradise (because paradise is always so personal) and I was separated from my family (which includes a little sister) - I had just joined the Navy and got sent to Scotland. Anyway, reading/hearing the lyrics to this song (and a couple others, actually), I felt as if they were written for me/to tell me something.
Has anyone ever seen a video to this? Wow! If not what a missed opp' This bleeds Siouxs' tortured dark side.....brking rules - breaking vows - breaking into two - Damn It ! I can see the whole vid!, can't you ?.....songs a bit short for what I have in mind but Damn!....oh well...
The song is so weepy and full of morose. As if she was losing half of herself and was undecided whether to follow her half into where ever. Alas, a B-side it seems to her darker days. Where there is Sioux there is a Little Sister.
3:11 Chrissie Hynde, Pauline Black(???) Debbie Harry, Poly Styrene (??? No clue who the next one is. Can anyone enlighten me??) and of course Siouxsie (Goddess!) Thx!
....nah...I don't think so. The wrong crowd for Madonna....it's driving me nuts though. Someone must know......possibly...Beki Bondage from Vice Squad.....but really....it's a blind guess.....???!! Thanks though.
Seeing her live is an experience,she is still full of energy and fantastic at holding the audiences attention.A unique voice and one I love and have done for many,many years
Thats right Siouxsie is the Goth Queen-Mother of all that is dark and beautiful! Listen and learn, the younger generations have a duty to keep this art form alive! Dont let gentle dark-beauty die in this new "Planet of the Apes"
I hear you. I've been listening to Siouxsie since I was thirteen, sitting by an obscure wall, alone, and this has got to be one of my favorite songs by her and the Banshees.
@FFQueen92 I know the feeling. I too was about 16 or 17 when I discovered Siouxsie and her music and I was immediately, well, spellbound. The first song I heard was Cities In Dust, I think. And it was something so different than anything I had ever listened to before... and it also made me grow a huge dislike to all that commercial radio shit.
@FFQueen92 exatly, this is actual poetry instead of the 'just dance and get frunk get raped and wake up and do it again' shit that we all hear on the radio. i ADORE her!! and i'm only 14
I like this album. I don't listen to it as much as I should, always was more into Juju and Kaleidescope, but this album showed a more softer vulnerable side of the band that was great.
Another outstandingly haunting, faultless track from The High Priestess herself. Legally adopting her birth surname, at sixteen, as my own, is something I'll never regret - has given me a permanent, personal bond. Her credibility and talent is timeless and eternal. Love you forever Siouxsie.
Ain't that an Elvis tune covered by Dwight Yoakam?...Just kiddin'! See, those who know music LOVE all kinds! Siouxie is one of my favorites. My cassette finally snapped the other day, quickly replaced it with CD!
..I wish she would perform songs like these besides the mantaray songs next week..instead of the "standardsofthebanshees".But oh..its going to be one hell of a rendez-vous..she seems so powerfull in the newly potsed vids from the astoria..didn't see her like that ever before.
i gonna see her next week on stage.. wonderfull song, a little bit more soft then most songs of Siouxie and the Banshees , but still that ''dark '' wonderfull voice... i going too enjoin that gig alot
I know, i not been around much, being busy and stuff but I always say... Out of th eye is NOT out of the heart. annyway, i look forwarth too next saturday,
Soft but very rebellious. She is giving Siouxsie advice. "Little sister break the rules" "little sister break your vows". She is awesome. I'd love to have her as an older sister.
Me too. I'm always the little sister in my friendships but recently it's starting to change a little bit and I'm getting older than some of my new friends.

I'm 17 and I've only just heard anything by Siouxsie. First thing I heard by her was this song and I am utterly entranced by her. She is amazing.
So much better than the mainstream rubbish most people my age listen to.

I'll make sure her music stays alive. It's shameful that I only recently heard anything by her.
And this may seem off topic, but she's really beautiful isn't she? =)
