The Cult "Rain"

[init4mojo]

Fabulous!

[warpull]

more like stumbled into this video, i have always liked the cult growing up but now seeing how they started out...man i got to say...gay.

[memoryman94]

@warpull yeah, you're right, but the song is great!

[jokernet13]

Oh how I love this song. Ever did, always will.

And still remember the kiss of the girl I loved so dearly back in the 80s.....

[Crazychuy82]

FUCK yeah the cult RULES!

[Whiterhin018]

lol wtf are these people wearing

[wullayr1314]

wot a tune

[25ghr]

Nothing Gay here, look at the Hot women Dancing and the Woman on the screen , these Lads must have been fighting the girlies off with a shitty stick!!!!

[sabinabean]

I am in love with this song and Ian all my life

[BlockAps]

"You know what I mean"

Oh God I love that

[michelaccio1965]

Fantastica canzone,fantastici anni,sano divertimento e buonissima musica!!!!!!

[TheSlavette]

Ian, be my Master, Sir.

Seattle, WA USA

[TheSlavette]

Ian, please collar me?

[TheRobertbennett]

awesome song

[Nitroglycerinated]

If I ever loved a homosexual it would be Ian Astbury, for sure.

[bones6868]

@jakeov You are very funny. Thanks for wasting two minutes of my life checking out that euro/disco/metal/goth shit, which I knew would be nowhere near as good as The Cult.

Still, I had a laugh at the pathetic fuckers, cheers.

[jakeov]

Theatres des Vampires do it better

[warpull]

gay.



[Supersweetguy]

@warpull So if this is gay for you, why the hell would come to this video? Haters gonna hate...

[cinnabarpeach1]

I've seen these guys in concert & they kiss azz!! I remember watching them on MTV back when there was only 1 MTV!! I watch them now and think, "Dang these guys were fine!!" Who are they? They need to make a movie about this band!!!! :) ....

[1968mayan]

if am not wrong long time ago the cult opens the show for metallica,.,., over there at houston

please let me know ,.,.,.,.,.,., if am right or if am wrong

[MsMorko]

@1968mayan I've seen the Cult open for Metallica in the 90s, great concert! I also saw the Cult two years ago - still great!

[Mupperik94]

i can play that song on guitar! Its beautiful

[HeathenSaxon]

such a fuckin damn good song.

[alladinsane68]

when i see this i´ve to admit that the 80ies were not so bad ;)

[Lieu3C4]

Siouxsie Sioux's break through to the Xth (or was it the XIth?) degree of the OTO seems to have done a whole world of good for men & women eVvyware (although Hymenaeus Beta's XIIth degree .. sheesh!).

[SergiFuss]

Goose bumps all over the place.. timeless memories..The Cult, 20 years in my DNA

[TheSlavette]

Collar me, Ian !!!

[FnBast]

@steven thomas erlewine: why do u people insist on calling the Cult "heavy metal" ?? They were Never metal.. Along with Bauhaus, Sisters of Mercy, Cure, etc, the Cult pioneered a post-punk/early goth/new wave style of rock.. But unlike those other bands, Billy Duffy wasnt afraid of putting some balls into it... but that doesnt make it metal.

[tallcoolone09]

Now this is rock and roll baby! Ian rocks!

[nosnerd1967]

one of my favorite songs of all time....the guitars ....the sound....timeless!

[mundanem]

@nosnerd1967 timeless indeed

[marumito]

damn! i can't believe i was in 4th grade when this song came out ... poor me, i Didn't even know The Cult until my big brother made me listen to it when i was in 6th grade! FUCKIN' AWESOME SONG TIL NOW!

[Trybe007]

Great times.

[Hyperflummi]

Listening to the tune makes me feel like beeing back in this great time!

[dhookdriver]

Excelent tune.. I don't want my youth back, but I'll keep the great party memories with youtube to help me along!

[paullees557104]

i want my youth back

[marumito]

@paullees557104 -- me too! if i can only turn back time! LOL...

[AlAlmariado]

eheheh The Cult passa n Night Friends Club!!HAIL TO THEM

[MyDhartley]

Fantastic!!!!  Love it!!!

[19Dfuck]

they play this in demons 2 and it makes the movie even more kick ass!!

[FreakAlert2008]

Nice

[onlywhenpissed]

Good song. Is the singer a homo with all the make up on his face?

[stnavres]

@onlywhenpissed No he isn't, are you a retard thinking something like that has anything to do with sexuality?

[tuberobert1]

Steve Tyler on vocals, and Billy Idol on hollow-body guitar. Just sayin'.

Before anyone grumbles, I am the worlds biggest Cult fan, grew up with them live in college.

[AchtungBabyNZ]

@tuberobert1 Amen to that!

[jazzzbaby]

Part of the soundtrack of my teens and I wouldn't have missed it for the world. So happy I came of age in the 80s. Duffy...looking smoking hot in this video.

[bisexfun100]

tidlös musik man aldrig glömmer!!!

[alexia52009]

[sisterellaful]

great vocals! captivating! classic underrated wonder!

[HeathenCub]

[HeathenCub]

[deejayalemus]

[MrChair201]

[TXSBLUEBONNET]

[homeboyy55]

This is the Cult as I remember them...

[RagnarSig8]

Only one Cult and always will be one CUlt!

[Alten66]

Saw The Cult play this in the 80's...still a crackin good track.

[redwb1]

Great video! Love The Cult!

[kink66]

Thumbs up for putting this band in RnR Hall of fame

[RelaxMF]

love it!!

[MrLefthooker]

This is more than music. This is my youth ! When I listen to this the words come flooding back as if I heard it only yesterday. THIS is definitely in my Cassette collection :)

[belmordok]

Hot sticky scenes, you know what I mean, like a desert sun that burns my skin

I've been waiting for her for so long, open the "sky" and let her cum down... Here cums the "rain"...

[Moabepgi]

@belmordok There is a sublime message to women in music?

hot, sticky, sweet ...

open the "sky" ... here cums the rain

HERE CUMS LORRAINE ...

I think so

[cozybear692001]

@belmordok oh yesss... you noticed it very well... its about cum shower... splashhhhhh

[belmordok]

@cozybear692001 Well, thank you! :) But, that's just an another reason why this song is so sexy... As for the "sky" thing, I think he meant legs... Anyway, you got what I/he mean/t ;) Greetings

[bsilver100]

@belmordok great 80s rock the cult asome

[belmordok]

@bsilver100 Yep! I remember the 80s, great time. :)

[FreakAlert2008]

I so much loved The Cult during my highscool years during the 80s

[sharkb8er]

I saw the video 'rain' and bought the cassette immediately. The music chain is long gone but I still have all their cd's. Great stuff!

[ladykarendean]

"Open the sky, and let (him) come down"....... LDK

[greggynite]

The Cult are soooo CULT

[25ghr]

Still so cutting edge ,, yet its only Drum Bass Guitar and vocals, these Guys know there craft ,, real music

[redrum427]

what i would give for his voice

[onisilos67]

Probably the best from Ian.. and the Cult... I still have the shirt from the 1987 tour..Coolest tour shirt.

[maistral]

Είναι σαφές πως πρόκειται περι μουσικού κομψοτεχνήματος...εύγε νέοι μου!

[leopsa]

@maistral yiat milas elinika vre ? rsrsrrsrs pios se katalveni etho ?

[maistral]

εσύ....... και αυτό δεν είναι λίγο!

[leopsa]

Respond to this video...  yiati milas elinka vre ? pios se katalaveni ?

[mindseyezzz]

Music died in the last 25 years no more soul just business ......

[brucewilliammcgrath]

Happy b-day

[starkweather444]

Released on October 18th 1985. 26 years ago today and still sounds great.

[SiriuslyRedCloud]

Those dancers behind him are hilarious!

[deadpharm]

The Cult are so amazing, such a huge influence, check out Austere Voyeur and The Italian School of Poison

[Montanha1992]

Incredible

[coolen]

The Eurobeat cover of this song is pretty wild

[JerrodAmolyan]

Fucking awesome. I believe Finnish Sentenced has taken some ideas from Cult. There's a band you maybe like if you like this. (And heavier stuff)

[darkgreencrows13]

@TheFrenchEngineer1 I'm sure.

[TheFrenchEngineer1]

Saw them at Brixton Academy at their peak.....great night, one of my favourite gigs!!!

[Dtskynyrd]

Just in time!

[fenderstratguy]

Ian kinda reminds me of Liv Tyler for his hair and nose and Billy Idol for his singing style

[Davelopper]

BEST BAND IN THE WORLD

[jhinds5769]

This song just totally rocks. I first heard The Cult in the late 80's when I was stationed in the Philippines.I'm 56 years old going on 20 something. They just don't make it any better than this. If you don't like this go listen Crap Rap.

[CoastGuardIDC]

@jhinds5769 ...I hear ya...I'm almost 51....and I think this music kicks ass....

[littleguypup]

@jhinds5769

I was in PI in the 80's , 84,85 and again 86 Fighting 40 SeaBees

[ddriscool333]

@jhinds5769 lol they just dont make like this hahahahahah

[venatorgemini]

Oopie6, you're parents raised you right!

[bigdsears]

danm i member clubbin to this... x time. x used to be legal actually, when this came out it was. doze where the days man.

[vule71]

ima li nesto jace ?

[zholyrebel]

omg i love this!

[Oopie6]

Coming from a sixteen year old girl surrounded by Justin Bieber, JLS and One Direction, and who receives funny looks whenever she tells people her music taste - I AM FUCKING PROUD TO BE A CULT FAN.

[Davelopper]

@Oopie6 you should

[sivko23]

@Oopie6 you rock girl

[Erinseeking]

Another timeless tune from the Cult! Love them always cffc!!

[blowfish3]

Hmm. Those two women are the same weirdos that appear in Doctor 'n' the Medics video for 'Spirit in the Sky'.

[Supermadido]

favoloso !!!

[Cicciorasputin]

Draco Malfoy is playing guitar in this group. amazing.

[shamuswinston]

@Cicciorasputin Huh? That's Billy Duffy.

[Pr0fess0rSasquatch]

@Cicciorasputin Epic fail

[vicecitylocal]

@Cicciorasputin that's funny.

[TheSuendenfall]

grrrrrrreat!!!!!and he looks always good.

...yeahhhh the sun burns my skin also.

the CULT have NO fillers!

what happened to the music?????today..music is nothing worth!!!!for many years ago lyrics tellin´ a story.today it´s only sampling of the 80´s hits.nobodys trying to get a no1 hit with the legendary hits of the 70´s&80´s.they are toooo stupid to write a pearl like THIS!thanx 4 this PEARL!!!!!cheers

[rperelli]

what the fuck happened to music in the last 25 years?????

[navnig]

@rperelli 2 words......Simon & Cowell. =(

[malibumut]

@rperelli Vitamin E came into scene,,, no need for paid decent full on muscians & bands... doof & trance took over,, but guess what, it's doing the circle & the original is back... You wait, bands & rock are back, full on & full time... Doofs won't eventuate till after midnight.. It will be live acts first, then other delights... So it should be!..

[CoastGuardIDC]

@rperelli ...just as with most everything else, it's gone down the toilet...

[61janey]

@rperelli I agreeeeeeee ....these guys were the best and still are. Go the guitar and the vocals!

[73musicmusic]

@rperelli judging by the 2 million plus views i'd kinda have to disagree with you...

[dudemusicspace]

@rperelli It got put into a computer and quantized so many of us stopped practising and also people decided that what we do should be a free download anyway.

Between the labels money and the punters attitudes we musicians got royally screwed from every angle.

Pay peanuts get monkeys.

I agree with you, and hope this goes some way to answering your question.

[MrDaddykaos]

@rperelli it became dance do wha shitty.man to drive to this stuff when it came out..wow!

[AORCrazy]

@rperelli it turned upside down, to worse unfotunately...

[antonio36599]

@rperelli better ask what happened with human brain in the last 25 years...

[playpird]

@rperelli totally agree !!! music nowadays is the biggest bullshit copy ass crap ive ever seen !!

[monteger95]

@rperelli most of the new bands are shit but there are some good, not so many. at least there are a lot of good bands still around and all the legenday god rockers that will never die... (fuck you bieber!!!)

[breinoso]

@rperelli It got infected with something called Music Industry!

[MrJoshGosling]

@rperelli u mean 17 years right?

[alexia52009]

i loveeeeeeeeeeeeee this kind music!

[cegtown]

Any Era, this is a HUGE song!!!

[000MrAnderson]

were those guys in red wearing lipstick dancin like homos? What the hell!

[marsjolta]

awesome, nuff said

[TheBlakem]

this is When the Cult Ruled, before they became an AC/DC style band...

[MICMECMEXICALI]

PIENSO QUE LA MUSICA THE THE CULT ES MUSICA SIN TIEMPO, PUEDES ESCUCHARLA POR PRIMERA VEZ EN TU VIDA Y PENSARIAS QUE ES ACTUAL.

THE MUSIC OF THE CULT IS A TIMELESS MUSIC, YOU CAN HEAR IT FOR FIRST TIME IN YOUR LIFE AND THINK THAT IS A NEW TUNE

[ewmcnal86]

I THINK THEY HAD A BAD AGENT OR SOMETHING CAUSE IF THEY WERE PROMOTED BETTER THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN HUGE!!!!..I CRINGE WHEN SOMEONE ASKS ME WHO I AM LISTENING TO WHEN I HAVE THEM ON..THEY ARE LIKE "THE CULT?' ..THEN DAMN THESE GUYS ROCK....

[mindwarp12]

@ewmcnal86 "...would have been huge..."??? W-T-F man,

I was around in the 80's, they were astronomically huge.

[rperelli]

@mindwarp12 the actually were...i remember the madness on a random tuesday night in Camden Palace, the walls were falling down...

[heybaby12345ful]

fukin mint tune

[ASCoelho1]

The `80s. That's it.



[ASCoelho1]

The 80 `s. That's it.

[candlemoth]

Did you come here cuz of city of fire?

[myhorse3]

I Love This Group forever.^_^

[mmcneil777]

These guys would have been bigger if they came out in the early 90's. Cool band...

[Sairyswolf]

@mmcneil777 agreed, add a little more beat and this would be a hit during 2010 area

[uglybettyx1]

The Cult very strong!

[devtherevLS]

This song is pretty much the blueprint for The Stone Roses first album isn't it?

Some guitar parts sound uncannily like something Squire would have played, and especially the bridge/breakdown reminds me of the Roses so much. Would not surprise me at all if The Cult were an influence.

[dompropaganda]

great song. 

[shivarising]

You can download my latest album of Cult-influenced rock here...

[DiaryOfDreams32]

Ouh Fuck Wires. Be free

[lulu97764]

[MagsMags8686]

[Swingfly33]

Best band ever, nothing compares
