This has been flagged as spam show

the most cringeworthy piece of Television ever? the our price version of siouxsee? always was shite always will be.......anybody who rates this as good needs locking up and was probably studying medicine in the 80's and not going o

P.S~~loved 80s version as it was my frame of mind..at time...(hectic!)

loved this version..as more mellow..~(more me now)

Toyah brave to have done this~and she did it well..and I think its a great interpretation..

any folk that gets stuck in history~~get over it..~

think the lyrics says it all

!!!!

I loved the 80s version...but love this too..The words are what are paramount..

This is just a different perspective..Toyah is quite spirtiual & it wouldnt work now her doing a "punk " version in her late 40s/early 50s! Its a great tune..with great words..it was fab in the 80s..( in my teens)..

and Beautiful now..(in my 40s!)..

Why do people get stuck in past and not move on..

life is a journey

and this is where Toyah is..in her life..

I think its a great song regardless of format..

lillydot68 2 years ago

@lillydot68 Are you serious! Look for the version she does live in Shrewsbury 2008, superb.

Like Zingo33 said.. this was made for Songs Of Praise..x

necronomicon2000 2 years ago

What WAS she thinking?????? I have fond memories of Toyah... from the eighties and into the nineties but THIS??? This is just NAFF!!!!

What happened, Toyah??? WHY???????

marinasinger 2 years ago

This is not my version. My version is the punk one where she got crazy big hair and crazy clothes and sings wildly.

Did she make this version to make fun of Songs of Praise which I suppose is christian TV show on BBC?

Zingo33 2 years ago

interesting... and good... but ..... hmmm...

it was the punky vocals that made the song sound so good in the 1st place. dont hate me for saying it I love Toyah too!!!

Redline748 2 years ago

I agree - not the song for this kind of treatment. She looks damn good though...........i wish

Toyah's voice is fine - a quality not always apparent in her more punchy stuff

wtf!

I keep expecting her to bust out on a horse wearing latex with big hair, but no this song wasnt a joke

its a mystery why she did this version

xxtiaan 3 years ago

She CAN sing though.

shaunberryshortcake 3 years ago

Thought I might have been a tad harsh the first time. But after listening to the song again, I was definitely spot on.

Total Crap !!!! Toyah has ruined what was once a masterpiece. It's a shame it all went downhill after 'Anthem'.

I once fucked Toyah she liked to be shit upon whilst having bottles inserted in her anus. Oh bugger wrong one that was Toyah Battersby.

I didn't think that I would ever witness anything worse than the original. How wrong was I?

A nice person I think and thank goodness for the occasional eccentric.

johnnytenjobs 4 years ago

i love the way that everyone thinks that this is some kind of tame version. this is the most nuts thing she ever did. IT WAS ON SONGS OF PRAISE. the idea that she would be on that singing this song is so bizarre,

eddochan 4 years ago

a nice version of this song but when she gets to singing the chorus her red jacket dissapears, the re-appears at the end of the song, is Toyah now a part-time magician

acesigma06 4 years ago

"Thank You Martin"

It's a beautiful version of this song, it has a lot of meaning, Wow! it blows your mind, so good, can't help, but play it all the time, "Thanks again" mmm

Crying out for Phil Spalding to come in and wake everyone up. Make a good basis for someone wich a music program to rework it with some balls. I always loved the fact that this song was quite gentle but had a lot of power, especially on the Warrior Rock album.
