Reminds me of the Rumrunner days in Birmingham in the seventies and another club in the jewlery corner under the arches on a saturday night ( I forget the name now ) GREAT nights
I really admire the musicianship within this band, very original, not bowing down to convention, I feel I can say this after playing guitar and bass for a few decades!!
Does it really matter what the sexual orientation of a person is, we should accept everyone if we just like them for who they are and not be nasty.
hey I just noticed that in one pic she has on a boobie t-shirt, the guitartist for bow wow wow wore the same one for one of their performances of Go wild in the country
how random was it when this played in Marie Antoinette? lol. the older people in the theater going to see the movie for historical accuracy were so confused. haha. sofia coppola is really bold to put this in that movie. :)
the first time i heard this, i was like, omigosh, do you think she inspired marina and the diamonds? because i can't help notice the huge similarities, especially in the vocals! :D
es una buena cancion pero la letra critica la cultura de hong kong y tiene algo de racismo en la parte en la que dice "ojos rasgados cumplir con un nuevo amanecer"
nadaz - you are the best - this is one of the best things I have ever seen on here - & a pretty good version of this song - she rocks - the Punk Rock Era - a time to rebel against the Establishment
Sung this tune in 79' with my first band when I was 15, sweet memories, and got to see Siouxsie smash some douchebags head in at the Peppermint Lounge a few years later, classic!
This is the Peel Sessions cut isn't it? It's not specified, but it doesn't sound like the one I'm used to from the Scream remaster. Can anyone shed some clarity on this for me please?
Yes. This was recorded for the John Peel Session on 6 February 1978. I have many more recordings of the Banshees sessions for the John Peel show from 1977 - 1986 on my channel.
Siouxsie in her prime was 10 times better than Lady Gaga. Post Punk is one of the best genres ever created. I love the late 70s - early 80s. Music today sucks.
@destructingparabola Why do people must refers to Justin Bieber or Lady Gaga when they leave a comment on a rock or metal video ? You could just say that Siouxsie is a great singer (I think so) and leave Gaga alone.
I said this without bad intentions to you, it's juste an opinion ! :)
elginxxxman, you just can't beat an original eh? The song is about Siouxsie's local chinese take away in Chislehurst, round the corner from where she lived with her mum in the 70's.
I LOVE Siouxsie!!!!.... And to all you fans, you MUST check out THE other great rock band with a female singer, BELLADONNA.... Just watch their haunting video of "Let There Be Light " the song they did with legendary composer MICHAEL NYMAN based on his music of Oscar-winning movie "The Piano"... Nyman himself plays piano on it!!!... search for "nyman belladonna" here on youtube and you'll find it!!....:-)
This was in the Marie Antoinette movie! Oh, I love the Banshees. That guitar!!!! Oh, and there was a Cure song too: All Cats Are Gray. Both are magical!
"I'll never forget, there was a Chinese restaurant in Chislehurst called 'The Hong Kong Garden'. Me and my friend were really upset that we used to go there and like, occasionally when the skinheads would turn up it would really turn really ugly. These gits were just go in en masse and just terrorise these Chinese people who were working there. We’d try and say 'Leave them alone', you know. It was a kind of tribute."
@vnjegds Are you kidding? Uffie has some fun tracks, but she down right butchered this song. Uffie does not have great vocals. Most of her handiwork is studio wizardry, whereas Siouxsie had actual vocals. Hell, I'm a grown ass man and I know I could do a better version.
if i ever have a kid these r the names lol: sieuxsie, joune,nancy (sid vitcous's gf, weather liked or not, still related 2 punk) johnny, (sex pistols), mike (NOFX)
@TheCommentBandit the hong kong garden was a chinese takeaway in Chislehurst,where she used to hang about,and she wrote the song after seeing the owners get a load of shit from a customer one night.
fukin rockin trak this is! prsonaly i think jigsaw feelin is the most powerful excitin numba the've ever done god bless these guys i used to follow them every where.
@456japan Si, yo tambien adoro al grupo, ella es mi diosa y reina gotica.
