Christian Death - Romeo's Distress

[strummerthegreat]

best of the eighties!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[l33tohs]

I am amazed at how much I like this song. Here I am, being fixated on brutal death metal and BOOM I'm grooving to this. Go figure....

[VROXXXY1]

fuck yea !!

[tsartodd]

KISS on my hand ... was Gene Simmons standing on his hand or something?!?

[DANIELWHERESTHEB0AT]

@tsartodd i just farted. it smells like chinese food.

[guernseyfox]

Its simply awesome Ted. Remember listening to this at school in the eighties and it sounds as good now as it did then.

[PUREHEAT78]

@guernseyfox so true

[sasukechidoriptx]

Bass line!!

[narcello100]

i will never get tired of rozz..............

[dirtyrussians666]

love the beat bitches!

[WarGoatForestWolf666]

Kids of the Black Hole

[KurosakiIchigo711]

This isn't bad at all. It baffled me how great some american gothic music is..

I know some of you will take this offensively, but accroding to my opinion, Japanese gothic and visual kei bands are so much more talented..Their music is just..I know it irks some when they cannot understand the words, and if so, ignore this. Though the meaning behind the words is brilliant, if you care to look.Those of you who are willing to take a leap in faith, look for the song Nocturnal Romance by MoiDixMois.

[Rotschlange]

@KurosakiIchigo711 Can't listen to it for more than 30 second. And i tried to. But no, that's not goth. That's a squallid emulation of european sounds and motives, and in my opinion,the voice has no poetry. Childish, even if correct, way of singing. that's MY opinion.

Not willing to start a flame.

[CircuitFist]

@Rotschlange Glad someone finally said it. Visual Kei is the equivalent of Otaku's getting run over by a Hot Topic truck.

[shophmart]

someone told me to check out ths band. eh, at least its not heavy metal like i th0ught it would be. metal sux.

[procnet1]

@BeatOfFreedom make it 20 niggers

[kittykhoas]

@procnet1

Take your racist bullshit somewhere else.

[darkmaxiron]

yeah the true christian death =)

[ThexBloodyxMary]

i love them so much..

[radicalronin]

eva O is by best friends mom no lie. thats how i descovered this band

[lolvltra]

@radicalronin I wish she was my mom.

[radicalronin]

@lolvltra me to i've known her since i was a 7th grader

[looklikestalin]

this isnt a good song because it's racist

[hanssonj]

@looklikestalin why is it racist?

[Theshomchez]

@looklikestalin it ain't racist, it's a kick at racism

[ThexBloodyxMary]

@looklikestalin

lol.. how is this racist?

[sdsuedeheadsd]

easily in my top 10 favorite LP's of all time...r.i.p. Rozz

[MrThisucks]

this is soo 80's. this is so different than the other stuff from these guys that got me interested :U

[VomBlitzGetroffen]

@MrThisucks Well, this is from the 80s. Do you expect a groundbreaking 80s deathrock band to sound like the shit they play on the radio nowadays? And what the fxxx do you mean by mentioning their other stuff? This is classic CD with Rozz on vocals..this is raw and pure cult.

[cyth0n]

Their best song!

[frenchgoldenboyfan]

Rozz was the man !!

[sonofdark18]

@frenchgoldenboyfan and even to this day ROZZ STILL IS THE MAN!! . Long Live ROZZ WILLIAMS (November 6, 1963 – April 1, 1998) we miss you dearly

[frenchgoldenboyfan]

@sonofdark18 You are right !!

[sonofdark18]

@frenchgoldenboyfan Yeah!

[666Lachrimae666]

rip Rozz. . . . <3

[maldoror97]

I have been there on the Sex & Drugs & Jesus Christ-Tour in Trier/Germany. Must have been 1990 or so. Very intense event, but i rather had it with Rozz.

[ignorethemachine1]

@maldoror97 why?

[19Dfuck]

yup 6th grade first time i heard them was from a cassete my sister got me on my b day, and only in a theatre of pain scared the shit out of me, it was like to much to comprehend and understand for my lil brain, few years latter put it in my moms old crappy walk man and fell in love. and im proud to have come from Pomona just like where mr Rozz himself came from, that city just echoes with his name

[ILoveEvenInDeath]

@19Dfuck Same here dude, didnt hear about him till today though but his voices is brilliant i wish i'd heard about him muuuuuch sooner!

[blakkfukngmurdr]

Sometimes I pray this music comes back and other times I dont. It came and went, and maybe thats the point.

[emilecristof]

How are the lyrics of this song to be interpreted ?

[yelmprincess]

He sure took satanism seriously. Most goths just dressed up, he did the whole priest thing for the satanic church and was buddies with that ramirez serial killer

[Doesumama]

Please don't let your self become a cynic, and/or consumed by hatred.

[SometimeInNovemberCA]

I saw Christian Death live in 91 or 92 in Athens, Greece. It was great!

[okcoca]

This is the best album to listen to on Acid. Especially the cassette with the bonus tracks. We used to listen to that over and over everytime we tripped. The entire summer when I was sixteen. Still feel like I'm on acid when I hear any of these songs. Very close to my heart. Thanks for posting a good version.

[TonoFonseca]

@okcoca

If I could get a hold of the stuff, I would.

I would listen to the Stones and/or the Hollies though, just to send myself back to the era in which LSD was most popular.

I sometimes fantasise finding a bottle of 1950s vintage Delysid, unused and intact after all these decades...

Oh well, at least we still have mescaline: Poor Man's Acid...

[Crowsinger]

@solutreansocialclub Idiot.

[davidleegoth]

where is doug clark when we need him?

[mailuna]

after joy division............this sounds fucking impeccable.

[PUREHEAT78]

@mailuna 

[oxyorb]

@mailuna you right bro, Joy Division, Christian Death and Bauhaus are great!!!

[golding56]

where has this been all my life

[Adrinishenkov]

busca "El sombrío secreto de la felicidad" en google

[DeaconPanDemonium]

Fuck I haven't heard this one in forever...

Still gives me the chills!!

[heygodders73]

The lyrics should read, "You're days are numbered with Pretence in your pockets" not "Creations in your pocket"

[interval999]

Christian Death is dead.

And Christian Death is not dead.

Les deux à la fois.

[evilthesaurus]

@interval999

oui oui :)

[sonofdark18]

@ram29jackson your kidding me? HOW was he selfish?

[IHeartHelloKitty1974]

This song is actually quite uplifting to me, it makes me feel very bubbley and nicccce

I like it!

[sonofdark18]

Rozz williams. we miss you dearly. not a day goes by that each and every one of us think of you as a god of music. Long Live ROZZ WILLIAMS (November 6, 1963 – April 1, 1998)

[ram29jackson]

@sonofdark18 No dude, call it what it is..he was young disturbed kid who let his selfish fears get the best of him

[MystikMoonMagic]

i hate when people throw around the word 'goth' nowadays.....there is no such thing as 'goth' anymore, at least not the kind of individuals who were pioneers of personal expression and dark creativey...now we have just the 'hot topic' generation..........i miss the 80s.....

[NaturalBabeKiller]

Great video!!!



[TheMariaharrison]

:)

[davidg5205ww]

this song is shit

[ladronguapo]

@davidg5205ww you mean: this song is the shit

[MCRhasAFireInside]

i dont care if you call me a poser or not... but... this is rozz singing? right?? or valor?

[GothicTerrorZombie]

can someone tell me the name of the songs rozz williams sung ?

[annexphear]

I just love how Marylin Manson stole Rozz's style and everyone applauded him for being so original.. MM is a cheap side effect from too much Alice Cooper and not enough Rozz Williams

[KP5000]

@annexphear totally agree. & they had shit music. i've heard him in interviews & he seems like a decent guy, but he's not nearly as original as the hot gothic kids seemed to think.

[3third3eye3]

This is music...

[jasminmcgaughey]

@3third3eye3

Umm, 10/10 for observation?

Music and lyrics do tend to create music when put together...

[jakemuch]

@jasminmcgaughey don't be so pedantic he obviously means it like 'this is real music' seriously.. ¬¬

[jasminmcgaughey]

@jakemuch ikr?

[jjwjjwjjwjjwjjw]

When Rozz was alive, no shallow, ignorant losers listened to his music- only the best could keep up :) Sad to see that times have changed. And to all you people who say "this is what Rozzz meant by..." I guess it's a good thing you know him better than you know yourself.

[bytheblueriver]

This song, his voice, the lyrics... It just makes me cry and cry and cry. Brings me so many memories... Love you, Rozz. Forever.

[Jennifer1717]

Amazing band most def brings back memories :)

[Clematisian]

……. Rozz … why? … Why? … WHYYYYYYYYYYY !!!! ~ (•8-o

[satarnag]

I was lucky to meet Rozz. I was listening to his music not knowing what Goth was all about. I just that the lyrics and music appealed to me.

[simionTheOne]

this song is sick

rip rozz

i' mgetting to know ur music atm

[MCRhasAFireInside]

cool song.

[narcello100]

best of the best R.I.P ROZZ no FAILURE

[sonofdark18]

"im so tired" keeps sticking in my mind

[missmeghank]

hearing this took me back i love how music can trigger memory good or bad the bad thing about it is i realized im starting to get old especially after reading a bunch of high school kids fighting over weather rozz is gay what the lyrics are about who fucking cares if you have time to battle over a thirty year old song with a bunch of strangers and get so fucking angry you need to get out more its not that serious to each his own..

[srpsk1komun1sta]

@PeiinNagato Hahahahahaha,nooooooooo,this is DeathROCK,not deathCORE. :p

[PeiinNagato]

@srpsk1komun1sta Holy shit I'M SO SORRY I MEANT DEATHROCK ..FUCK DEATHCORE

I'm so embarrassed...I just typed something other than what I was thinking....

[stars7803]

great song and I never saw them in concert back in the day. :( but yes being Deathrock was awesome back in the day :)

[merbywerby]

the memories burn

[kwolf68]

Cool tune. I don't know much about this band but this song I really dig.

[Wscate]

@kwolf68 Yea this is a great song i would say listen to this album "onlhy theater of pain" or 'Ashes" i think after that this moron Valor took over and the band now sucks.

[sonofdark18]

why is it that whenever i look up at the sky and hum this song i start to smile. thats strange because i barley ever smile huh.

[sonofdark18]

@SimulacronX. we all wish he would come back we really do.. ....i

[SimulacronX]

Rozz come back!

[darkange13l2012]

rest in peace ROZ

[sonofdark18]

long live Rozz williams . i was 9 when he died then i found the cd "only theatre of pain" in the garage. one of the best days of my life was spent listening to this song. R.I.P Rozz williams (november 6 1963-april 1 1998) we miss you.

[Finntroll17]

I still never get tired of this song after so many years of listening to it. 

[Korruptkonceptsinc]

im tired of you douchebags... no one cares if you do drugs or not... if u do.. stop coming on here and expressing how cool u are for it, and if you dont, stop coming on here becaus of how cool you are for not doing them. youre a pussy either way.. so either stfu and enjoy real music, or just stfu and gtfo.

[Feuer75]

@TheTrainRex: Wait a few years and you'll see how "cool" drugs are...

When you'll get serious problems with your health....

And then tell us again how cool drugs are.

[TheTrainRex]

@Feuer75 I'm straight edge. I was mocking that guy and everybody at my school.

[TheAlliesCanHelp]

@Feuer75 he'll be too fucking high to care thats why every natural drug is awesome no too many side effects anything synthetic though is fucked

[Wrackewn]

poor rozz, let him rest in peace. and Git also.... =(

[gunsnroses909emo]

CHRISTIAN DEATH FUCKING ROCKS!!<33 and his sexual orientation does nott matter!!he's still fucking awesome!<3 vote upp if yuh agree!!^,..,^ x

[gothicomgwtf]

@aybitchdontdodat Nobody died in front of you. You're a liar and a dumb motherfucker. Disgrace to CD fans everywhere.

[ThyMozelTov]

@gothicomgwtf I'm not a CD fan, too hard to open. No one included you in this discussion. Go fuck yourself you dumb youtube warrior. I'm pretty sure I know about my life, you don't. And regardless of who died infront of me, everyone has a sob story, i'm trying to tell him it's up to the person weather they let it get the best of them or not. And no one elses call. Thank you though, for telling me what happened. I appriciate it.

[DerDrache707071]

Erinnerungen an die alte zeit...

[nairadina]

One of my favorites. Great song.

[xWitno]

Wow great music. Just started to listen to death rock fucking love it 

[Viperplayer187]

I find the vocals a little annoying. But the music is absoluetly wonderful

[Doesumama]

I remember seeing Christian Death a few times in Los Angeles, the whole androgenus Death Rock scene was really cool, just a bunch of people gay or straight and every thing in between getting together and listening to some kick ass music.

[sedutasullalunax]

@Doesumama io li ho visti più volte in Italia..un vero portento..a parte ua volta alle cascine di Firenze..loro non avevano voglia e il pubblico imprecò contro di loro..incazzati neri ;)

[NightOfTha44]

ALL FAGGOTS FUCK OFF, ALL HOMOPHOBES DIE

I wish Paris Killton was a cute skinny blonde girl full of hatred...

[PUTNAMEINTHISSPOT]

@aybitchdontdodat Wow you're an idiot. You say running away from your problems is less pathetic than facing them. Ha..You bratty, spoiled child. And you and plasmapunk can go kill yourselves because "you're soooo poor or life sucks or whatever", but if you lived like me you'd learn to appreciate good things but not many good things come.

[advisablyparentable]

burning crosses on a niggers lawn

[OpiumNiGhTs]

Wow...this takes me back! I loved it then, I love it now!

[gearhead292]

With a name like pariskillton you obviously never even knew Christian Death back in the day.... But Kudo's to you and all your EMO glory you actually discovered real goth music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[electroluxia]

ROZZ FOREVER.

[MarsCoban]

Hypocritical* Indignation*

[MarsCoban]

@plasmapunk Now, I understand that you probably wrote that reply in a moment of righteous indidignation, but clearly your anger disturbed your clarity of thought. Fight fire with water, not fire, is my advice. I doubt you'll listen to me, I'm guessing you'll think something like, Who's this fucker to tell me what to do? But I'm not telling you what to do, only giving advice, so that you don't make yourself look like an even bigger ass than the person who was being an ass in the first place.

[MarsCoban]

@plasmapunk "and fuck you and your classical music" "but I wont allow others to step on others for no fucking reason" - Hmmm, hyprocritical much? Now, I can see that you're reacting "for a reason" but that doesn't excuse unnecessarily shitting on his opinion. Again, wanting people to respect your opinion, yet shitting on theirs, isn't exactly the best way to go about garnering the respect you desire, I don't think. Rational explanations might work better, delivered without superflous insults.

[MarsCoban]

@plasmapunk "You shit bigot, fuck off and die." While I respect the fact of your defending homosexuals, I really don't think death is the best option for the ignorant - I would personally recommend education and cultural exposure. Telling everyone who doesn't agree with you to "fuck off and die" isn't exactly helping the problem of bigotry.

[rolfeder]

He sounds like one of the goth kids on south park. I wonder if they used him as inspiration.

[lapaginahueon]

he is saying whats that moving in the addict....

[ashleymoniduran]

@lapaginahueon his recollection of the kingdom of fire, it's the upstairs downstairs attic basement god satan black white yin yang situation

hence

romeo's distress you know?

[NOTgarycoleman]

I like this better after seeing the lyrics. Very nice. Thanks.

[XkissthestarswithmeX]

I like the first 38 seconds

[abaex]

@nnniiiccckkkooo Punk comes from Rock - Rock from Rockabilly - Rockabilly from Blues...so without Blues no Goth-Rock. They might be INFLUENCED a little by classical music but there origins are in Blues so Gothic and Punk at least have something in common. Without Blues you might have Darkwave but no Gothrock.

[NOTgarycoleman]

@abaex And yet blues is such a shitty form of music.

[abaex]

@NOTgarycoleman I think blues is totally okay depending on what stuff you are listening to - there is lots of shitty Rock & Metal related stuff out there too but you are just ignoring it since you know songs in those genres you like. That's it and nothing else. Every kind of music has it's good and bad stuff.

[NOTgarycoleman]

@abaex There's all kinds of shitty music but I haven't heard ANY modern blues bands that are worth two squirts. Maybe some OLD blues. But nothing new at all. It's like modern jazz. Complete shit to me.

[abaex]

@NOTgarycoleman Might be that todays bands are crappy but that doesn't define a music genre and decide if it's good or not. You know Bluse can't do anything about Metal/Hardcore/etc and Newschool-HipHop-Beats being mainstream at the moment. It's just not cool anymore that means just fags are playing blues at the moment. xD

[Wiccmoon]

este tema es recontra enviciante~

en todas sus versiones X'D

[Littlewick97]

u a lil punk ass bitch nigga gone be burnin crosses on a niggas lawn

[charlottevard]

@nnniiiccckkkooo Oh absolutely. All I meant was that punk played a great role in goth music and people shouldn't ignore that fact. I honestly prefer goth over punk but I still respect it.

[thevikingpower08]

i miss you rozz

[lapaginahueon]

i hear "whats that moving in the ADDICT?" and i think thats a lot better than attic. more relevant, even. and more correct. 

[ravemarisha]

so bad marriage brought him self to suicide?

[KORNISMYPROBLEM]

@ravemarisha it was alot of things that caused him to hang himself. he was frustrated with alot of things

[xXxlarlosxXx]

Damn this song brings back old memorys

[SkidWhileYouSkreem]

even though this guy is a faggot racist cry baby this song is too sick!!!!!

[volleyballk114]

@SkidWhileYouSkreem he's bi, and there's nothing wrong with that... he's mocking racist christians.. hes not racist

[Chaosoda12]

@volleyballk114 thats what i being tring to say to all but they just dont get it

[LunaOnlineMalignant]

@volleyballk114 He should drink bleach

[henryvamp]

@LunaOnlineMalignant

you should

[xxtaxidermyxx]

@SkidWhileYouSkreem I love how you criticize him for being racist while being homophobic. nice one, clown penis.

[gage116]

no im not mad my caps was stuck onmy bros computer couldnt fix that its just i dont think people should judge music that hard i bet some of the people that bitch just want to hear them selves or probably never picked up an instrument ,.,. i play keyboards and drums ,.

[gage116]

HEY SOME OTHER BANDS YOU TRY TO LISTEN TO IS DANSE SOCIETY-SOMEWHERE JOY DIVISION-TRANSMISSION,SHES LOST CONTROL SKINNY PUPPY=HATLESS INSANITY,KILLING GAME GREAT BANDS GREAT SONGS AND NEW ORDERS ALBUM MOVEMENT ITS A MASTERPIECE,.

[TobyW360]

@gage116 im not rich you dumb fuck, im pretty poor, i like it when people make complete misjudgements of someones characteristics, makes them even more retarted

[TobyW360]

I was recomended this song and band by a friend and I do not like it at fucking all.

The singer sounds like a whiney bitch and the lyrics make no fucking sense,

quit being depressed, go smoke some weed, get some friends, fall in love, party hard, grow old, and die.

Quit bitching about how depressing life is, people have it way worse than you pussies with computers and they thrive like motherfuckers.

[plasmapunk]

@TobyW360 @TobyW360 many of us have it tough man, and I understand what you mean, shitloads of rich kids just bitching about everything when they have nothing to bitch about, right? The way I see things, rich fuckers can go die, they ruin everything.

But just because you can afford to have a computer doesn't mean you have nothing to worry about.

This world is fucked up and it's good to put the word out there for those who don't have a clue. Doesn't mean anybody is giving up, we wouldn't be here.

[loves80sexperimental]

hey do you know what the band is in my profile video? I am dying to figure it out!!!

[FranticBabe5]

<3333

[lovemechekitten]

iv listened too this song at least 20 times today, i seriously cant get enough.

his voice is intoxicating.

[PUTNAMEINTHISSPOT]

Fuck songs with long intros..

[nrviolette]

@PUTNAMEINTHISSPOT

It's only like thirty seconds.

[PUTNAMEINTHISSPOT]

@nrviolette I was loading it on dial-up

[defrox]

Anyone remembers the comments about the lady that was selling Rozz's ticket stubs and stuff on e-bay? I remember there were a lot of arguments on the internet regarding that topic. if Anyone knows the link please reply. thanks!

[gearhead292]

Yes.... I just finished learning all the bass to this....... See this was a good one with Williams as was Spiritual cramp and there version of Venus in furs. Not that I totaly hate Williams but he was a complete Junkie!

[TheKorious]

Whatever happened to people just making music a certain way because they like the sound of it.Too much formulation makes scene s a dull place.I like what you call deathrock and psychobilly and goth plus many other things that dose not make me those things.I love when people assign a name to themselves,like I am Goth or Punk it makes me feel sane knowing someone actually believes they are the embodiment of a sound.

[analextraction]

they started off christian and then later realized how much bullshit religion was and started making music in spite of Christianity there not hateful or racist do youre homework before u start freaking out about what the lyrics are instead of what there meant to express plus christian death is the shit and u suck

[roothands]

I'm not a fan of this band but I always loved this song

[up2space]

Rozz was the man but he had demons. apparently.. i think his music is great. and he is a symptom of our times and one of us...

[RozzWilliams69]

very nice, i obtain some ashes, and his older bro is coming down to see me, i am holding a memorial service april 1 2011, at the hollywood forever cemetery, check it out on facebook, azazel izan gross

[cynthiachristian2]

@RozzWilliams69 uuuuuuuuuu can i go?? :)

[AnNaElDrItCh]

FUCK!!!, esto es realmente hermoso...m enknta esta cancion...eras un genio Roz!!!!!, who's that walking in the shadows, who's that walking in the streets???, wow....no ma... no tngo mas palabras para describir lo q m ac sntir....M NKNTA!!!!
