Cardiacs - Day is Gone

[Atomiumonamour]

I just cried in my pants.

[radicalhippo75]

Tim Smith was a Genius. How do we tell the world? This song changed everything for me. Born are we from hollow trees.

[JacobOpeth]

Great music on Mtv...that's a joke !

[johnnyrook68]

lsd?

[JamieBarnes11]

MTV played Cardiacs? God damn times have changed then.

[supun]

It's like the most you'll see Jim animated :) Unless he's running down a hill.

[mioluce]

wahhh Cardiacs on MTV? Awesome?

[ex0nic]

Oceansize fans?

[dan300878]

I just discovered the Caridacs, but wish I had sooner!

[rancidrancidrancid33]

are they on acid in this video?

[gadzoox1234]

@rancidrancidrancid33 they may be but i think the idea is to give the audience an insight into what it's like tripping.

[cobdendunster]

Although I have been a massive fan of the Cardiacs since dot, I had no idea that Tim is unwell. I just listen to music, rather than follow details. My loss. A bit late, but I wish Tim all the very best. Since I have no idea of your condition, please forgive me if I say that I would love to see you perform - I never did. Get well, Sir. You are so original and so, well, you fucking ROCK!

[rightwingpob]

Just getting into this band at the age of 31.....gutted it's taken so long.

[schlepworld]

If you have these in your garden you should get a terrier. What a beautiful guitar solo though!

[crashtv]

suitably mental

[rubregg]

Cardiacs on MTV? bwaahaahaa xD

...love that band, thanks for the upload :)

[palendromebob]

I saw the cardiacs with Levitation, loved levitation, i remember later seeing dark star too. What was the band they become?

[gehennathehorse]

Are you thinking of Mikrokosmos?

[GingerPimpernel]

@gehennathehorse Speaking of Mikrokosmos, any word on if the 3rd album is ever going to happen?

[gehennathehorse]

Gehenna the Horse knows many Cardiacs things.

But not this...

[Clarelovesangels]

@palendromebob i saw them with levation too :O)

[Mercurybeam]

Angoissants, géniaux, délirants, perfectionnistes, généreux , cauchemardesques, hilarants et valeureux Cardiacs !

[drgreyhound]

Even Cardiacs at their most radio-friendly truly deserve god-like-genius status. Would love "Heaven Born..." to be re-mastered.

[LucidityOfReality]

If only they had spent more on the video, the track is awsome, the video sucks. Shame because the Cardiacs are one of Britains most talented bands. Hello's to Chauncey, Franno, Raven, Mary Michelle Evil, and my baby Ruca.

[osunvid]

get the pump pumping the pump pumping the pump pumping the pump pumping the pump pumping the pump pumping the pump pumping the pump pumping the pump pumping the pump!

[littlestouffer]

Get well Tim, we miss you and we all love you.

[jahwob]

[rimriserusa]

[porlomsk]

The Cardiacs and Levitation in Edwards No.8 Birmingham 09/02/92 amazing and Market Tavern Kidderminster 03/03/92 brilliant gigs I alos saw them in Warwick University 26/10/90 and Oxford Venue 27/10/90 - sleeping in the car over night! Brilliant times!! Day is Gone!

[bobajobbob57]

I saw The Cardiacs and Levitation together in Folkestone - same tour perhaps - I'm vague on the date! What a show - I really miss Levitation!

[drink4e]

THEY ARE GREAT.

[Rhademanthus]

Sounds like Bauhaus, oddly.

[KeithLorraine]

Also reminds me of Hawkwind and The Damned

[zombiegod]

Well I'll be there again on 15/11/08. I just got my ticket today!!!! See you there???

[Paddywack0]

Sweeter than a small duck.

[matochiba]

God, I LOVE that solo!!

[SFTH]

Habsolutely hawesome!

[randomjp]

Clear out your desk,Zombiegod.Your boss has been notified...

[zombiegod]

Roll on November. Cardiacs in Sheffield (and skiving off work!) Fuck yeah!!!.

[buddyboy68]

yes i gotta say im stunned as well,i think the thing is mtv do normal ,and cardiacs arent normal thats why we love em so.

[relicdelic]

on Mtv?

im stunned

[Dmanlamius76]

In the past...as in...the early nineties, MTV used to be good! Ah, how times have changed...

[daddsy]

Why doesn't MTV play videos like this anymore? I'd never expect this to come on mtv.

brilliant though. obviously.

[ady24]

[please42]

This video has fired bolts of delight through my knackered old bones.

[schlepworld]
