The Damned - Eloise

[gristleizer]

Call me crazy, but I didn't notice until watching this that Dave Vanian looks just like Tony Hadley of Spandau Ballet but with blue eyes and gothed out. Anyone else see the resemblance between them?

[ABIGAILXYMOX88]

Marry me Dave ♥_♥!

[ABIGAILXYMOX88]

Marry me Dave ♥_____♥ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Thedasaurus]

Rihanna does not fit in here.

[Thedasaurus]

"He's a very attractive pirate"

[Amandagrint96]

he is a sweeney todd...kkkk

[TheTheobear]

Cruella de Ville's record career kicking off.

[elouiseluvssparkle]

my father started singing this song when i was born :D so i was named eloise :D, the doctor spelt it wrong though so my spelling is elouise :L

[Gothtecdotcom]

Original Graphic EP in my collection .... love this song!

[aliceisdeadx]

This song is my new obsession O_o

[princessprojector]

One of the original GOTHIC GLAMour Pusses, and WAS he glam the old Dave Vanian, but his lip syncing is for shit....but when u look that good no body cares.

[victoriana324]

Dave Vanian totally gorgeous so fucking hot it hurts.

[Stormdragonbrisvagas]

Just saw them last night and they did this song!

[SuperGwen51]

the best!



[sirkevin1967]

Makes me laugh how people say that certain bands "sold out" by going on TOTP or by accepting sposorship.....yep all bands shouldn't sell albums or make any money for their effort, they should instead get a part time job at Tesco so they don't starve.

[twr12]

I blame the Producer; Micheal Hurll. If he had not been such a boring sourface he could have had more live performances.

[1969monkfish]

To go on TOTP, you needed to sell out, good song, but should never have gone on this fake shit miming show, but still excellent band in their prime....

[lewisner]

A legend is on the stage.

[goldenhorn1967]

Mimed :(

[Bluesbreaker2010]

@goldenhorn1967 most things were on TOTP

[MissyMorbidXoXo]

@TazzyTiz Sweeney Todd looks like Dave Vanian.

[misramful]

he reminds me of cruella de vil o.0

[gilky1a]

Listen up fuckers . this is the best cover song ever.!! Forget the sync bolox. Still the best.

Up yours!!!

[boozyshoutshout]

loves eloise from wales!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[NERD9054]

"Eloise... What an epic name..." - Eloise, Wales

[portinfinite]

I remember when the Damned were good.

[danielscissorhands]

This is when the Damned jumped the shark.

[fishyfingersparty]

Oooo look, we're on camera, let's do a cheesy clap-along-to-the-song and piss off anyone who really likes this song. Quality tune.

[Archasupe]

the best version of Eloise, is the spanish version of Tino Casal

[ellekknight]

dats ma name beaches

[MrVivi444]

fuck gay

[glassthroughmyheart]

My middle name's Eloise :3

[EloiseAyez]

my name's Eloise:3

[mrsexpistols36]

[MrThemutsnuts]

[henchwang]

Fuck off VEVO! The Damned, sponsored by Nissan???

[gilky1a]

Anybody got the sorted sync video with the end of the song added at the end?

Fuckit i will do it myself, this is worth it

[pilgim]

every night I break my heart to please....Stenalees

[leggy26a]

Best mime ever! NOT!

[wwxasw]

jajajajaj yo y los ordenadores,no crei que eran los motorhead,estoy echo polvo

[tinca1tinca]

Just for Beth hehaha not how I like to remember The DAMNED!!! Much better then this

[frogfister]

classic song., there's a bird works with me called eloise who walks past my machine every 5/10min, and each time i see her i sing this song in my head, certainly breaks up the day(ps, she is a bit younger than me and i bet she has never even heard this song before-may have to don a badger wig and sing it to her!)

[Mr309GTi]

@frogfister Go on..Give it a go, Lol

[frogfister]

@Mr309GTi thanks for the encouragement, if i had a better singing voice i would deffo try it, she is quite fit and well worth one hehe!

[andrula]

Makes me laugh that the studio audience is clapping along like it's a Donny Osmond song! Superb!

[TheSetMeUp]

I got my middle name from this song, I love it :'D

[MsVitoU]

the 1970's disco lights and dancing is too strange. so funny



[MadamAnt1]

yes amazing hair amazing voice! I love DV X

[0212900049]

Seeing them on Wednesday <3

[davenow]

Playing tonight at funfunfunfest!

[locorojo25]

saw them about 4 or 5 years ago. didnt realise wot a good looking man he was/is. im totally straight but id maybe take a wank off him lol

[Daisydreads]

Marry me, David Vanian! <3

[julieanddavid]

@Daisydreads hes already taken

[Daisydreads]

@julieanddavid So what? :D:D:D:D:D:D

I don't mind! :D:D:D:D:D

[Pheebaliciousable]

As an Eloise, thank-you, The Damned, for my name. It's served me well so far.

[julieanddavid]

would be funny if David Vanian wore a long wig to sing this song gawjus as ever :)

[damfat1]

The pants are priceless!!

[Phantomgraves]

I loved Algy Ward as the bassist. When he was in band every member had their own look but when he left they all tried to copy Dave, but when he left they made Phantasmagoria their best album(in my opinion) so its give and take

[oldpunkster]

He looks awesome here!!! they were so cool, so glad I got to see them!!

[85DEANO]

oh Eloise

[MrDavid52092]

this started goth man this is the firast fuckin band to dress as vamps

[plumbers4u]

Shame Vevo have to ruin everything by putting adverts everywhere!

[Morthund]

who exactlly was this L.O. Wheeze geezer?!?

[awesomebitch]

Man I really love this song, could listen to it aaaaall day, and dr. jekyll aaaaall night ; )

[daydream1000]

What a babe! 2:45 woke me up. Too bad this is on TOTP. That show was a joke and a bad joke at that.

[awesomebitch]

@daydream1000 hahaha I was gonna post that 2:45 made me pregnant! I love the Damned and Dave Vanian gets more and more sexy. Saw them live this past Sunday and they were awesome!! Check out a few vids on my page!

[daydream1000]

@awesomebitch They were in my lovely city tonight but I had a job interview. Oh Lawd, I felt like crying when I got home. Not only did I choke, I missed the Damned. i didn't see them and they don't come around very often. I could stab myself right now. On to happier things, Your page is amusing and I mean that in the best way possible. The rat video is like nothing i've ever seen. The concert footage is impeccable. The band sounded ace and Vanian looked fit as fuck. I'm jealous of you right now.

[awesomebitch]

@daydream1000 That really sucks I'm sorry! If i had a time machine I'd rescue you from that interview and drop you off at the show! Whenever they come back you have to just say "fuck everything else" and go! They're phenomenal! And Dave is so SEX that as soon as he walked out on stage, you could tell everyone in the crowd wanted to ravage him, men and women alike!

[daydream1000]

@awesomebitch Ahahahaha. This comment made me day. Thank you dear.

[LisaS60014]

@daydream1000

Bummer. The show in Chicago was AWESOME Tuesday. Tight sound and DV was sexy as hell.

[mindpharm]

YIKES...I think Dave is smuggling something in those white tight pants. Nice pirate shirt and cowboy boots.....lol. But I have to say those white gloves set it off!!!!!!

[kappucinokid]

A fantastic song. One that I had on 'repeat'.

[JungleJil]

So that is what John Cusak did before he started acting.  I did not know that.

[shizannon77]

Just realized Dave Vanian is wearing pants similar to David Bowie in Labyrinth!!  Smaller stuffed sock though!!

[upmybingo]

im named after this song ;)

[Loobs666]

@upmybingo Your name is... "You know i'm on my knees, Yeh?"

[lushysrobbiesangel]

@upmybingo Awww bless u !! I named my daughter after this song to !!! Lol !! God i love this song and the name :D its gorgeous xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[pagie89]

@lushysrobbiesangel my daughter is named after the song to!!! :D

[SOHASDEAD]

best.hair.EVER.



[xmeda]

weak voice he has... search for Barry Ryan

[Animal3651]

My dad named me after this song and just told me to listen to it .....

lmaoo

[garyw930]

May I recommend the book 'A Concise Guide To Eighties Music' by Karl Vorderman. The author is a big fan of this track.

[RobvanderVaart]

Fuck the commercials!!!

[jonneyd]

This is not punk I remember them as punk

[MassivePuddingGreat]

@jonneyd The correct genre would actually be gothic? But they were certainly full a many punky aspects.

[NotSoAmericanIdiot]

DAVE <3

[FootsureArtman]

best version of a great song

[MyFloppers]

I love you Dave Vanian you sexy man!! Phoarrrrr !!!!! Call me lol xx

[Shuarma]

La versión de Tino Casal es un poco más movida...

[Jimboola]

It's good, but it's no 'Bela Lugosi is dead'!  :D

[Whovian92]

my name is eloise and this got sung at me by teachers at school

[Sygnett]

@Whovian92 yeah my geography teacher sang it to me in front of everyone in my class at high school on my first day.. I am still scarred T_T

[sexypixie1993]

@Whovian92 lol my teachers did the same thing to me.

[ShewalksNbeauty]

<3

[Glamking1]

As they didn't make a promo video of it though. They kept the TOTP performance like The Smiths and The Jam kept theirs.

[julieanddavid]

Vanian is the Gothfather of Goth

[lilr8erreyes]

I just don't understand how you go from making Neat Neat Neat and New Rose to this...

[mrsayapo]

they made a great effort to reproduce the original version but his voice was too low.

[bnfox]

so sad to see this - such a great band before this disco new wave party phase....ugggghhhhhh!!!!

[SuperPais]

This is a version, If I know it good. Anyone knows which made the original one? Thanks.

[Nokturna666]

@SuperPais Barry Ryan

[SuperPais]

@Nokturna666 Thanks a lot ;-)

[PsicosisGotica]

I like his acttitude and his voice :)

[EloiseeeeG]

oh god, my name IS eloise, my mom used to sing this to me aswell

[kappucinokid]

This is a song which I really like.

[Keltibarian]

That's got to be some of the worst miming ever :)

[LollyLemur]

im called eloise:Lxx

[gillyjacky]

good grief ---- id that really the dammend ---- im getting old --- they seem kike JEDWARD

[gillyjacky]

good grief ---- id that really the dammend ---- im getting old

[EleutheriusL]

My little sister was named after this song... when she was 8 days old, she died of adrenal failure. R.I.P Elouise Mooney. <3 29-09-2005 - 07-10-2005 You'll always be with us.

[NickInDetroit]

I wish he could have lip-synced better to the pre-recorded vocal they made for the live performance. They did THAT because he was having a hard time hitting the high notes---but then, I am a stickler for detail.

[EmmaEgg1]

Wow Dave looks soooo different to what he looks like now. I still see them live about once a year. Gonna see them again in 13 days and I can't wait - they always do this song as well. The only original line up left now is Dave Vanian and the Captain but they are still f'ing brilliant live!!

[doolb666]

@EmmaEgg1 by chance do they play dead beat dance live when you see them? please let me know, this song and dead beat dance are my favs!

[EmmaEgg1]

@doolb666 - I don't ever recall them doing that one (but I am usually full of beer so just might not remember, Lol). They have definitely done Eloise every time I've seen them though. I'm seeing them this Friday so I'll make a special effort to remember if they do it and I'll get back to you. xx

[xrayspect]

the damned est un grand groupe! en francais au quebec Donal Lautrec fait version de eloise mais elle est poche

[sjeffe32]

This band inspired Dave Gahan from depeche Mode before they created the band. Intererresting..;)

[KEJkam]

my names eloise, i can only listen to this version of 'eloise'. i think my mum named me after this song...

[valarmanwe]

@KEJkam Shame. I think Barry Ryan`s version is better. Beautiful name by the way. Similar to Elohim ( pronounced `Eloeem` ) - which no one should be named. Elohim is the name of the All Beautiful.

[VNVgirl]

hes friggin hot

i agree!!! mega and this song sounds great cranked!!!

[Consolatrix4]

shit, he's hot :D

[stuckpanda]

i love this song

(but i may just be because my name is Eloise)

[VTWINTOE]

Awesome stuff!

Atmosphere, Class, Theater, Drama, Originality it's got the lot.......

[taiwarrior1]

Cor, this brings back memories. Love this song and Dave Vanian, yum!

[MrWarPeon]

FUCKING ADS. AT LEAST show me something I MIGHT be interested in if you have to be whores.

[misshoopsghirl1888]

PHWOAR TAKE ME NOW LMFAO

[claireburnett69]

there I am.. crowd scene.. first frame.. blur jacket white shirt behind the drummer.. amazing trip out... but think he was pissed with the false finish!! cause we all cheered and clapped before it finished.. opppsss....

[julieanddavid]

its 1986 not 1985

[Elegarret]

I know this song by Barry Ryan.

It is better to him, no one sings this song!

[uplifter1000]

@Elegarret

I so agree! Barry Ryan, definitely! xx

[Elegarret]

@uplifter1000 We are here to meet you ...

You wrote a response to my comment. I went to your channel ...

[uplifter1000]

@Elegarret

...and then what happened?

You are here to meet me? okaiiii....? lol

[NumaDeathMCR96]

30 Seconds to Mars in a sunkist commercial xD haha cool

[krallstello]

Can you imagine this man and Peter Murphy in the same room?! Charisma overload!

[answersInNemesis]

they have a Vevo account just for one video?

[NumaDeathMCR96]

@answersInNemesis they're that hard core >:D

[princesssookeh]

@answersInNemesis Vevo must own everything, or Vevo will not live...your soul is next.

[TreijaMusic]

1:45 - out of tune ''do-do-doo-doo-doo-do-do-doo'



[mosquito1958]

If you can get the 12'' Vynal X version of this its brilliant with very different treatment toward the quiet end build up part .

[kagsmc]

Love David Vanian x

[MegaHocking]

i did call my first daughter after the song....she`s now 14 years old and i used to wear my hair like that....and deemed a prat in my local village....lol...them were the days

[captaincow64]

i like the how the band name came out as the channel "thedamnedVEVO" damn vevo indeed

[novaface]

@captaincow64

lmao!!! xp

[KT12191]

@captaincow64 agreed, what a perfect channel name

[MrShannonite]

I always wanted to have my hair like his, but I was too chicken at the time, now I'm too old, lol

[TheGuinnessboys]

Dang, can you believe Dave Vanian was gonna be the guy to replace Glenn Danzig as the new vocalist for The Misfits before Michale Graves joined. that would have been the shit!

[doolb666]

incredible how these guys did such a drastic style change but their punk and goth rock kick equal ass!

[bloderme]

This is the punk band the Damned? Looks and sounds like some synth-pop band.

Is that Dave Vanian or Elvira?

[daniella8419]

i usually prefer an original track but not in this case ... this version is really good!!

[hahamadeyoulook1]

I love you Dave !!!!! and thats not good cos your 54 and I'm 13!!! :/

[TheVintageEloiseP]

@hahamadeyoulook1 completely agreed, im just fourteen but that isn't much different:D it doesn't help that

, although i wasn't named after this song (i'm pretty sure) it still feels like it my song. plus he's a complete babe in those gorgeous boots & the tight bulge trousers! love for dave<3

[hahamadeyoulook1]

@TheVintageEloiseP I tells ya if I get married my husband-to-be WILL wear this outfir to the wedding! :) If not the the deals off. Lol. :D

[sazzletee]

Am I the only one who gets this out of synch?

If not, Am I the only one who who puts it on mute and synchs it up with their iTunes so it's IN synch?

[sazzletee]

Nice footwork, Vanian.

[bigfatskunkreefa]

best pant-buldge EVER

[eddiewillers1]

God, I love this cover!

Bombastic, overblown, exaggerated, camp yet cool!

My anthem to a goth princess from many, many years ago (well, 1986, and her middle name was Louise, but what they hell)

[talissin]

The man i would fall in love with if i would be a woman.

[carla41jaar]

wat een verkrachting van een lied

[Saervagr]

no reason to pidgeonhole them..they are better than that. And, man, can they play !

[mariakzv]

I Love this band <3<3<3<3

[slick2112]

what a dance style 2:00!!!

super cool

[lalloo99]

the best cover version of a song, by anybody.

[davbob]

LOL I have been bouncing around youtube all day and arrived here several hours after watching the new Harry Potter trailer. If you ever happen to watch the Harry potter trailer Dave Vanian appears in it at 0.54 lol.

[wilf139]

shit advert followed by a shit recording, thanks sell out cunts.

[LordDracha]

this song always made me sad...but sad in a good way! :>

[missVeronaGD]

He's kinda scary-dressed O_o

[HanoverFist247]

@missVeronaGD Wasn't he always creepy in that Vampiric way?

[missVeronaGD]

@HanoverFist247 well yeah but that was cool. I kinda prefer vampires wearing black.

[princesssookeh]

@missVeronaGD oh dear. you're one of those easily frightened, daily mail reading, pearl clutchers aren't you?

[missVeronaGD]

@princesssookeh Oh no, I'm very far from that. Look don't get me wrong. Dave Vanian is amazing, so are The Damned, I'm just saying that I don't really like his style on this video. Anyway, I'm sorry for posting this. Don't wanna fight.

[toydolls1979]

damned are fucking awesome

elouise not the bestthey did but still a dam good song

[spikethornenebula]

i love that hairstyle plus one of the greates band ever i love these guys my dad introduced me to them first song i heard was neat neat neat and ive been hooked ever since the damned rocks

[TheEloiseyy]

My Mum named me after this song, it'd be kinda awkward if I didn't like it O.o

.
