The video was shot in Portmeirion, North Wales in the UK. Same place as the TV series The Prisoner, hence the balloon in the shot at the very beginning of the video
One of my favourite videos. What a wonderful time in music history.

Hey music fans! Dan-O from Lava Lamp review here, and just wanted to invite all of you to check out my vintage album review channel. I discuss records that people these days may have forgotten or just dont know about these days. So far I've done reviews on Bob Dylan, the Doors, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Minor Threat, and more reviews to come. Please stop by and check Lava Lamp review! Your vintage music fix :)
@Perchakk saw her and her band in the late 1980s at apollo oxford ,she had a broken ankle and had it in a cast she still performed sat on a high stool bright yellow evening dress and hairy arm pits ! never forget ! brilliant artist performance and band ! that budgie is brilliant on the drums only time i saw her live stuck in my mind all this time fantastic she is somethink special
Here we can use the term "artist" Unlike most performers today, the focus here is on performance, expression, the music. Not dancing and whoring it up for a vote on some talent show.
@probrojeffro Don't be small minded and only live in the past. There are artists today that interpret our current generation through performance just like Siouxsie did in the 80s, and there will be many more in the future. If you can't distinguish somebody like Zola Jesus from Foster the People than you're in the dark pal. "Most performers today" are busting their asses touring in a market where hardly anybody buys their music, so give them a break too.
@princepoloband Most artist today are terrible. Funny how the closed minded are the first to see closed minds. If you knew anything about music, you'd see that post 2000 it's a great fail. The song writing pails in comparison greatly. And some Youtube flunky telling me how to think is laughable. You don't even know me, showing your insight and perception is so stunted and morose, your indict your own ignorance. Sorry, was that too much for you?
softskullbubblebrain....get a better brain....listen to old sound and U will see that was better than the crack that is here today!!!!! F:U.....even than i like Greenday but not the same thing.
@mowgli19601 You're in for a treat. Type Iggy Pop and the Stooges the passenger into your youtube search bar and see how this song is supposed to be sung.
hell yeah Iggy pops songs love it...the idiot,the first ever for d.js only made here my fav..1st album (rich B***th) awsome...love this re-make!!!cover..
VELHOS ANOS 80 VELHO BEXIGA E O SUPER PERSONA QUE PARA MIM ERA O MELHOR BAR DO BEXIGA ONDE OS PUNKS TENIA UMA IDEOLOGIA ; VIVER A VIDA SEM GUERRA E RESPEITAVA AS OUTRAS TRIBOS....
I was at this recording in Portmeirion with my old friend Max Hora (both then members of Six of One, The Prisoner appreciation Society). We were standing just off camera by Tyne Tees outside broadcast vehicle. This was all part of Channel Four's The Tube programme, although we actually appeared in @No Limits' a similar show re-enacting scenes from The Prisoner!! All good fun back in the eighties!!
@NotSoAmericanIdiot ehhh i dont like it, im not hating my mom put it on and i just commented lol, im not like those idiots who just look things up to hate on them
@LeshaAnn It was part of a documentary presented by Jools Holland, all about The Prisoner. Was on TV about 15 years ago, I had it on VHS but it's long lost now :-(
I love Both versions of the song. But, im more of a "the cure" and new wave 80's kinda gal, so i absolutely love this version. But if im really stoned, i definately go for Iggy's original.
I like both this and the more common second video. It's like a work in progress.
And, well, Iggy started with a good song. Siouxsie and Budgie made it better and gave the original proper due. Without this, the Iggy original would have been forgotten.
This also beats any other cover version out there (Michael Hutchence, anyone?).
Just the fact that they used the prisoner as a backdrop, and also that this is a kickass song, makes this one of the best videos ever....sorry, kanye, beyoncé does not have the best video ever.
So true 'probrojeffro'
