  • great song!

  • He does not use a Stapeler. Its called a E-Bow. Its used to make long distortiions with yoru guitar ;)

  • j adorre!!!!!

  • cool!!! 22balu

  • What is the stapler, anyway? A magnet? A coil? Obviously it's for sustain.

  • it's an e-bow, and electronic bow. Paul used it very well in several songs, super cool effect!

  • If you listen closely, you can hear the same beat and rhythm of I Ran in there towards the end, near where Paul uses the stapler.

  • great picture quality

  • Oh man !! I just would die to see the original band get together permantly bet they would have sell out crowds and not to mention have awesome songs like this one ! But whatever mike does now days is original a masterpiece frozen in time !

  • oops,i didn't mean to put that there twice because i thought the first comment didn't post

  • awsome one of my fav Seagulls songs! (Mike, Paul, Frank & Ali) The Flock at their best!

  • A classic!

  • Still kicks a.... that were years ago and i still think it good (memories) a full band on stage in u.k not many british bands have ever done that in states and survived.......oh wait is that what happened 'em? Like that listen too BLANCMANGE!

  • Love Paul's E-Bow effect at the end!

  • i love the band, but god they suck ass live

  • na they dont suck live but this one does

  • yes,because the opening synth trance was way off

  • wats that gotta do with anything

  • i don't know it kinda sounded like it was botched,but don't get me wrong still a terrfic performance of wishing !

  • i don't know, i thought it sounded sort of botched, but don't get me wrong a great performance of wishing !

  • What a FIND this video was! I agree...there needs to be an AFOS DVD.

  • Wow the quailty of the audio and video is very nice, I wish a Flock of Seagulls DVD would be released with this kind of footage!

  • This is taken from the legendary show "The Tube" that used to go out friday evenings on Channel 4 in the UK early to mid 80's

  • HOw old were they? Paul looks about 17 man this is some pretty rare footage you got here memoryofnightmare better keep it in good condition. Check out that e-bow paul has at the end of the song. I have that guitar I need a e-bow but those damn things are 76 dollars.

  • but i thought paul was born 1962

  • yea he was, august 4th 1962

  • but then how was he 14/15 when they took him in the band
