the zombies breif candles

[toxicjimmy]

my favorite song by these guys, such a shame that a band way ahead of its time was underrated in the 60s

[stepenwolf7]

I love this band and all that the group members did after their demise. Colin Blunstone has such an angelic voice.

[lowaces]

i love the way they say" brief candles "

[molinagrosz]

[axxellein]

Truly superb...Awful moniker! ARGENT far far better

[lapicki51]

Porque los comparan con los Beatles?.Son mucho mas parecidos a The Moody Blues sobre todo en Odessey & Oracle, un album sensacional.

[chilibean11]

As I understand it,the drummer was picked out at a parade because he looked like he had the most rythm..haha....its all good...T

[moistandwanting]

i before e except after c

zombies reppin in the house tho

[Wacokid48]

the Zombies were as cogent and interconnected as the Beatles. Without the

others - they may not have excelled as they did. Colin's voice is superb, Rod's a musician's musician and a blast, but don't forget Paul's excellent guitar voicings( he's my hero), Chris White's minimalist bass and vocals and Hugh's great jazz drums back up.

I love this group. they are important and seminal pop artists.

[BeWaTer99]

In my opinion, the secret of the zombies lies especially on the figure of Rod Argent, who gave to the band that awesome jazz-classical influence. The sound of the piano added to the sultry voice of Colin. Chris White did a great work too on the lyrics.

If Al Kooper didn't rescue this work from being erased... ( actually, O & O was only released in the USA, because of his intercession)

Even The Byrds, The Doors, or THe Kinks themselves were influenced by them.

Oops.. I wrote too much, sorry :p

[ChivaInvencible]

Es preciosa la música de los inigualables Zombies... poco valorados en su tiempo, pero diablos!!! Eran un grupazo !!!!

[BeWaTer99]

La verdad es que fue algo curioso, Time of the Season se colocó entre las primeras de la lista de singles 6 meses después de haberse publicado su trabajo. No fueron infravalorados, simplemente eclipsados por The Beatles ( hay quien dice que suenan =...), a pesar de que, hoy en día me resulte más original el planteamiento de The Zombies, más cercano al jazz y del que beben grupos actuales tan famosos como Belle & Sebastian.

Yo no diría es un grupazo, más bien, gran disco de despedida. :-)

[anshelm222]

eclipsados por los beatles? entonces lo hubiesen sido todo el resto de grupos que se conocen más, los zombies sí que fueron algo infravalorados para lo buenos y creativos que eran. Y belle and sebastian son actuales? bueno, quizá sigan y no me entere, pero no diría que se trata de un grupo actual. Saludos. Y los Zombies claro que son grupazo, para mí de lo mejor en la historia de la música! y eso que soy ecléctico

[BeWaTer99]

Belle & Sebastian sí son actuales. Su último disco salió el año pasado ( BBC Sessions) y su último disco de estudio es del 2006 y es genial, de lo mejorcito que han hecho.

"eclipsados por los beatles? entonces lo hubiesen sido todo el resto de grupos que se conocen más, los zombies sí que fueron algo infravalorados para lo buenos y creativos que eran" No entiendo qué quieres decir

[ailone8]

me encantan los zombies!! :) que bueno fue encontrarlos en youtube!!

[edensdarkpoet]

ah yes the drama of 'love'

[maida1982a]

is rod the other lead vocalist on this?

[codyrhythm]

this music reminds me of when i lived at home and my i would wake up to my mom blasting her old records...just can't stop replaying it

[animegalc4]

I love the way it's all quiet with the piano and then all of a sudden there's a clash of instruments while he sings the chorus! (:

[purpleyelloworange1]

Colin Blunstone. Bright and shining gems of memory!

[Nrrody]

i love the guy's voice who sings brief candles blah blah blah (i can't make out what he's singing after he says brief candles)

[Uroshnor]

"Breif" must be one of those fabled neologisms that linguists are always talking about. What does it mean? Is it German? It sounds German. Then again, maybe education was wasted on you.

[schavira]

Well aren't you high and mighty.

[wyglop]

the etymology is Slavic for "mindless abuse of language"
