THE CHURCH-MYRRH

[VonSutho]

Anyone ever figure out what this song actually means?

[shadow0106]

@VonSutho Wanna know the same thing...

[tidepoolbay]

Nice work!

[SUNSHINEandSPIRIT]

@tidepoolbay Thank you,great song

[hms2008g2011]

It is so mysterious that how the eastern doctors know where Jesus is about to born and presenting him their 3 gifts which representing all his life and value? By just observing the star? ? How they travel there?

[reliabilityinmind]

One of the 1st song of the Church I listened to (together with Night of Light and Tantalized..which tantalized and mesmerized me). I love them since then, mid 80's, with the very same sensations, love and appreciation

[blarson12]

@reliabilityinmind Yeah the 80s were one of the best decades to be in.

[beebeeguy69]

So good to hear this song again. Memories of driving along the deserted Australian coastline at sunset. Thanks for posting. :-)

[mozjedangi]

Ohh YEAH!

[valsignia]

A nice song and nice visuals.

[karanaman68]

Thanks for the work in getting this video done.

Just bought the re-release of Heyday and had this wonderful song on heavy rotation.

I thought When you were Mine was magic but this is a different level again

Cheers

Scott

[SUNSHINEandSPIRIT]

Thanks a lot karanaman

[karanaman68]

@karanaman68

Good to see so many people that love The Church and this brilliant song.

Peace and compliments of the season

[SUNSHINEandSPIRIT]

Yes a great band,merry xmas to you too karanaman

[PuckerUp69]

I guess they never made an official vid for this but this might as well be it. I enjoyed the visuals so much. Amazing how my thirst for new music takes me back 24 yrs in time to rediscover a unique, timeless sound. Congrats :)

[SUNSHINEandSPIRIT]

@PuckerUp69 Thanks puckerup,yes unfortunately no vid was made for this song but glad you liked my little effort, its a great album with stunning lyrics,cheers,steve

[PuckerUp69]

@SUNSHINEandSPIRIT

I remember buying Of Skins & Heart, The Blurred Crusade & the Seance ep on vinyl when I was a young teen & adored all 3. Don't know why but I missed the rest and I've got a lot of buying to do here. I noticed Starfish is not available on itunes yet Heyday is. I prefer to find them all on cd though for the lyrics sleeve. Yes, the lyrics are mystical and cryptic, coupled with their superior musicianship it is listening bliss. I'll have to look at your other vids too. :)

[erodgenator]

you are so awesome thanx dude:)

[SUNSHINEandSPIRIT]

@erodgenator glad you enjoyed it man

[TenderCrusade]

Does anybody know what this lyric means? "Privilege on privilege

An unwanted discovery"

[joffisgar]

@TenderCrusade ,Its a long time ago, but, i seem to remember it was cabalistic, 2 ways to enlightenment, as the fool or as the sorcerer (knowledge) , the fool doesn't have the mental disipline and is doomed to insanity, hence unwanted discovery, also known as a premature kundalini arousal, hope that helps.

[TenderCrusade]

@joffisgar Thanks a lot for that info.

[TenderCrusade]

Wow, thank you for uploading this. I love the way you translate The Church's music in your videos. Just subscribed. Peace. Jeffriana

[SUNSHINEandSPIRIT]

Thank you very much TenderCrusade,appreciate your nice comment,great song

[Jaialai55]

Beautiful... Love it. Thanks for the post! :)

[SUNSHINEandSPIRIT]

Thanks Jaialai55,glad you enjoyed it

[mrfiggins]

They, along with the replacemants, rem and husker du (plus fab 5 freddy and DMC) made the 80's not suck too bad. I feel sorry for most of my generation that only got Madonna, Rick Astley and all that MTV crap.

[simionTheOne]

@mrfiggins

the cure, clan of xymox, echo & the bunnymen, the church themselves, the clash, siouxsie & the banshees, the chameleons, bauhaus, flock of seagulls, the stranglers, the essence, joy divsion, love and rockets, the talking heads & so on ...

the 80's sucked..? i'd give up anything to have lived those golden years

today sucks ass, & the 90's seemed more like shit to me to.

[TheLawFulfilled]

I love the images you've been using with most of these Church songs.

[SUNSHINEandSPIRIT]

Thanks TheLawFulfilled,appreciate your comment

[artfantasies]

OMG that's like a tidal wave from my youth. Never thought to hear this again. Thank you for putting this on YT.

[SUNSHINEandSPIRIT]

Thank you kdelplancke,glad you enjoyrd this great song

Thank you so much for your outstanding effort and posting one of the most beautiful collections of The Church songs ... I just spent about two hours reliving one of the best periods in music and in my life ... the memories, oh the memories ... Your visuals are also very impressive.

[SUNSHINEandSPIRIT]

Thank you lemonkooler

[karanaman68]

One of my favourite Church songs. Sublime lyrics again from Steve. Powerful rythmn section......my eyes well when they sing "and we talk about the way people treat us back there, their hollow laughter, pain in their eyes"

[letmusicfillyoursoul]

Great video, nice job. Thanks for the post. I love the Church. Michael

[SUNSHINEandSPIRIT]

[catanduva33]

I would play this song over and over on my tape deck, driving 70 mph down the I-290 in Chicago late at night. Along with Peter Murphy and Live. Unbelievable song.

[SUNSHINEandSPIRIT]

Yes its a great driving song,thanks for stopping by

[SteveMultiRed]

[SUNSHINEandSPIRIT]

Cheers steve,glad you enjoyed the song and video

[Nigelxman]

One of the most amazing songs ever written. This song takes me places

[route37c]

saw The Church play this in 1990 @ the Boston Orpheum...GAF tour

[rushfan14]

Great live song. The beat thumps through you like a train in concert. Too bad that the guys don't play this during their shows anymore.

[1algernon]

Does anybody know if there is an original video out there? I'd love to see it, since the song promises so much.

[SUNSHINEandSPIRIT]

There is no video for myrrh sadly

[RecoveredLib]

Unbelievable!

Everytime I discover another Church tune, it turns out to be a gem!  Not only does this band continue to produce a prolific amount of music, it's all brilliant!!

[H3Babe]

I adore this song! It is my absolute Church favorite. Thank you, thank you for posting. Great vid too. You have made my day! ;-)

[SUNSHINEandSPIRIT]

I agree,its one of their best for sure,glad you like both song and vid
