Peter Murphy - Indigo Eyes

[AthenA2ptO]

havent scrolled back that far into the comments but if im not mistaken peter was the lead singer for bauhaus before his solo career-i remember that haunting performance they did in that vampire movie the hunger with david bowie, catherine deneuve and susan sarandon

[badoocee]

Indigo is the color of the deep midnight sky. YES.

[tommyrock69]

We all know someone we once put this on a mixed tape to in the 80s.

[FireTiger941]

Just when I thought I had heard every beautiful song there is, I discover this gem. Another song that changed my life...again :-)

[miguelsessin1]

Baita som!!

[LishLash]

Such an elegant voice, brings to mind this performance from the Thompson Twins in 1983:

Thompson Twins - If You Were Here (Live in Liverpool)

[cloudeye7]

So beautiful!

[tracemanaz1]

His voice will NEVER get old... incredibly soulful, this album.. got me through some times!!

[roxbottom]

Absolutely sublime.

[AlgisKemezys]

This is just great...

[epiTOE]

a coisas que nao teem expliicacao isto vai mal porque estou bebado

[barroense1]

Grande músico!!

[amyleoness]

Classic.

[oldpunkster]

Got see him years ago, he opened for NIN! When no one ever even heard of them....Peter was awesome....and I really liked NIN too, but we mainly went there for Peter

[theendlessenigma]

@oldpunkster i'd have went for Peter and left before NIN.

[BYODDC]

Wow! I'm so grateful for the internet and places like YouTube that have given me endless delight in rediscovering some of these incredible songs, real gems from a very fun but not horribly distant past. Very cool tunes here, achingly absent in this day of R&B and rap/hiphop drivel.

[TheSuendenfall]

awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!

[captaindaring]

Peter is one of the most frenetic live performers around. He is like a live wire on stage.

[qotsa18]

Excellent song, Peter Murphy was a real gothic singer

[boywonderaz]

@qotsa18 - I think he invented gothic, Bauhaus was certainly there at the beginning.

[sqwuade]

If you like this check out his first solo LP (If the World Should Fail to Fall Aparrt). I like it better than this one but this one is good too.

[sqwuade]

@sqwuade Case in point; check out "Never Man" on YouTube (From If the World Should Fail to Fall Apart LP) - Amazing song and production! It's actually a cover of an old Pere Ubu song I believe.

[vasdecabeza2]

post-punk & new wave !

[tzerokool]

by the power vested in me by the holy church of lizard king Jim Morrison i pronounce awsome

[sevewone]

WTF I woke up with this super gay song stuck in my head

[slipjorge]

MI FAVORITA ......

[WasabeJoe]

Love Hysteria simply captivated me - Quite a break from the Bauhaus Neo-Goth. I fell in love with it when it first hit the record bins....Very beautiful.

[TheEricinSF]

Peter Murphy's best song...never did stuff this good with Bauhaus

[vermillion303]

My very favourite Pete Murphy song.

[BabylonAGoGo]

from the dark-wave master himself. great tune. those were the days.

[SteveSparx]

her

[SupernalOne]

who can make somber abiding melancholy an energized & living place to be? Peter Murphy can!

[SuperPaulieh]

HAVEALWAYS LOVED HIS MUSIC. AND HE IS SO CREATIVE.....

[MrBetelnut]

pure goodness 

[Citylake2001]

Love this song! Peter you have much talent!

[mirebasantos]

im like very muth the best songs

[silverwolf2061]

wonderful song

[PhooBoy]

Why don't they make music like this anymore?

[ikeysdad]

Indigo Eyes is a song that makes me remember my grandfather.Playing in my mind is a video full of fond memories of my grand father. From the kind,quiet demeanor to the description of his rough,dry hands...Insane? no, just misunderstood by most...Thank you Peter Murphy.....

[thecrystalship92]

bauhaus!! !:D

[raleighwoodtgirl]

This song still sound so fantastic on ancient vinyl and a 30 year old mid-grade turntable. Thanks for the inspiration to get it out.

[mtjgw]

Alway loved Peter Murphy's energy and distinctive voice. I remember enjoying the tune and others off the album when it first came out and now at age 52, I still enjoy it. Rock on, Peter!

[alinaalarm]

So magical and mystical!!!

[Goombah777]

Yep, the best of the best

[deancook07]

THE 98 VERSION OF THIS IS GREAT, VERY DARK,DEEPER VOCAL.

[krallstello]

The hyped up singers who win the Grammy's and sell the billions of cds have NOTHING on Peter Murphy. His talent eclipses ALL of them. He is woefully underrated and under appreciated! He has a NEW CD coming out June 7th called "Ninth" Go to Amazon NOW and pre order it!! I did :)

[badoocee]

@krallstello, AMEN. Peter Murphy is indeed an artist that deserves much more recognition. He is one of those artists/musicians that has a positive effect on the stream of consciousness for many beings.

[avidamor]

great music

[cyrconi]

Es un tema que me hace volar dentro de mi conciencia , gracias Peter

[katadantesux]

WOW @ this tune. I have just realized that people have no idea what's out there. Absolutely brilliant from every angle.

[BloodNorseGods]

this is like a mellow Type O Negative

[The096757]

if i heard this during the 80s it was to the left of the dial.

what an awesome song. true art.

missed him when he was in a town i traveled to earlier this year simply because i did not know about his show.

[Tjpepeluis]

I get the privilege to see him live in concert twice, in San Diego, CA. ounce at House of blues and 4rth and B . . . still have T-shirts and Tickets . . . Really unforgettable shows also took him two pictures . . . Peter Murphy is an artist . . .

[littleboeep]

Memories of Royal Oak Michigan. the 80's forever...the Lilac Time, talk Talk, Aztec Camera, OLD rem; Chronic Town....The Church etc....

[ggh7664]

@littleboeep

Wow. Such great bands and great memories, though for me it was Salt Lake during the 80s. A few others for you would be Julian Cope, Midnight Oil, HooDoo Gurus, Mr. Mister....

[bjorn2run]

@littleboeep The 80s - the best decade for pop music ever!

[LUDWIGPARIS]

Peter Murphy does perfectly what most artists can't do at all.

[SupernalOne]

"Orphie in some thunderworld"? Wasn't it Orpheus in the Underworld? Whatever, great piece by Murphy, so lovely and moody

[MAGurue]

I was at a summer festival and never heard about Peter Murphy. My head instinctively turned, to see whose voice was that... I will never forget that moment. He was dressed as a turkish king.

[Glowb0t]

I'm seeing him live tomorrow :3

[olliepet1]

ANYTHING THAT COMES FROM THE EIGHTIES IS GREAT~ i LOVE THIS SONG..HAVEN'T HEARD IT IN YEARS..THANKS FOR POSTING! :)

[skeller63]

I just love all his music .. what a talent he has with the vocals ....

[watto1964]

Peter Murphy in concert sounds is just as good as the studio recordings! Awesome!

[Slumpnasty]

What kind of people listen to this kind of music?

[calo3152]

@Slumpnasty we the owners of a bigger truth.....

[vengefulsmite]

malicious Melane from Tennessee where are you

[zabilgy]

One of the truly most beautiful songs to come out of the 80s and such a marvlous voice on Peter.  Amazing...never get tired of this song!

[significcunt]

ooohhh yesss yess...... just give me soeme good 80`s pop and i don`t need anything else!!

[TwinBoom]

6 idiots hit the dislike button

[IvanAgram]

@TwinBoom No, it was an accidant because they were dancing in their chairs while listening to this graeat tune :)

[wheelworker1]

Id be a liar if I said Im glad I dont Indigo eyes..but I was born with brown ones..but at least they look like black which is not to far from indigo

[stevencmrn]

peter rules

[lunautube]

great voice

[sgq07]

80's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rosebelforth71]

a classic, i miss talents like these..

[dylan19674]

This song was released when I was in high school; it sounds as good today as it did then..!

[saladcommander]

Beautiful song.

[LENTICULARPLASTIC]

[] ( @ N

[artsylovelylady]

I loved this song so much growing up I couldn't hear it enough times on the radio!

[DrDougMusic1]

Nothing like playing this song after a crap fulled day. It always brightens me up. Youtube is like a personal Juke Box. Whatever melody or rhythm would run thru our brain, we can call it up on this site. How fricken Sweet/\

[djfranxu]

Ohhh this song is one of the best new wave song that I have listened.

I only am 23 years old and I know about this 80´s music by electronic remember sessions, and I have listened Peter Murphy only in remember sessions by internet.

It´s fantastic and a perfect voice and melody, maybe the best voice in the gothic rock, new wave and sinthe pop.

Best regards from Spain, and this song is one of the best together This is a Seagul (Snake Corps) or Nowhere girl (B-Movi), etcetera.

[order57]

I have the indigo vinyl somewhere.

Must give it a spin!

:)

[sana1999]

@order57 me too.

[order57]

Great album!

But this song is a masterpiece.

I remember those days and i remember that all suddenly stopped.

Good records disappeared and all became very boring.

[order57]

Great album!

But this song is a masterpiece.

[awellfedbottomfeeder]

to PM et al, thank you and shalom

[Glomerol]

What is this song actually about?

[somame69]

@Glomerol Take something then......maybe cough syrup at first ........then see how that works out for you

[Glomerol]

@somame69 :

Does this tell me what this song is about or are you saying essentially that you aren't sure either. :)

[gotanigo]

There's patina on the record ;-) But I have it still...

Thanks for uploading!

[KhMeRvEnGeNcE]

I. Love. This. Song

[DrDougMusic1]

He produced a sound and melody that is very unique and haunting. Very rare. True Genius.

[callefemoreira]

cara muito bom som, freedom, liberdade, inesperado, e womens. It so easy.

Gracias Mr Murphy

[WarpedFigurine]

Peter Murphy is the only artist whose music can turn my frown upside down!!!<3

[ToniMartin77]

Anyone who loves music should get an album from Mr Murphy!!!

[whitehorsemunching]

brilliance!

[MrKariope]

conduciendo coche sin capote no?y la vida hacia delante.....................

[sejo717]

ESTUPENDOS,¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ DESDE VALENCIA. MUCHOS RECUERDOS. SEJO,,

[vitorro1970]

Sinceramente,yo preferi que nunca se incluyesen los trabajos de Peter Murphy y semejantes,eso izo que fueramos pocos y los mejores en gustos musicales-ya que cuando se escuchas demasiado un tema,uno acaba aborreciendolo.

[oogie11]

This song sure ain't like Bauhaus lol, it's strangely plesant and sweet...

[elchato68]

Sophisticated lyrics that makes it practically imposible for a homie or a hoe to understand. Talent at its best, with band or solo.

[HUMANOIDECIBERNETICO]

Great song !!

[zerozander]

lovely song, gorgeous man!

[sosidecop64]

i missed the 80s....i miss being young again, i miss being in good health, i miss my kids being small again....so many regrets.....

[mindgoesblank0]

@sosidecop64 i just just wish i'd been born then. i'm only 14, i missed such a great decade...

[personmeant]

@sosidecop64 beautifully and sweetly said. the phenomena of the past and reflection.....so romantic and dramatic.

[MisAnnThorpe]

I personally consider this to be one of the duller tracks on Love Hysteria. It's a nice melody but it has that bland Roxy Music circa 1980 production feel about it. Probably his best solo LP, although I've been listening to Dust on YouTube and have just ordered a copy and apart from a musically excellent version of My last two weeks, which Murphy all but ruins with totally over the top vocals, that sounds like a superb LP.

[sana1999]

love love love love love love this song!

[SupernalOne]

does anyone know the title of the Peter Murphy song that includes the lyrics "the moon and the sun, partners in light"? I had a bootleg tape of it off the air, from the DC underground FM station WHFS, but can't find it now -- it had sort of alchemical lyrics and a nice feedbacky-guitar instrumental break - please help me find it!

[MisAnnThorpe]

@SupernalOne The song is "Seven veils" off the "Deep" album.

[tinytoes409]

@SupernalOne The DC underground WHFS??? Oh now THAT brings back memories....I'm from Baltimore! Listened all of the time in the 80's...now I have that Bug In My Head! I'll ask around...or it will pop in my head! Hope I can help!

[sugarandspice4815]

Such a beautiful song...

[sosidecop64]

i missed the 80s so much

[adamnelson55]

@sosidecop64 Tell me about it....

[snaapz]

Vox sound like greenday lol

[69METSJETS]

He's a cross between Bowie and Ferry. Good stuff!!

[ThePetepiper]

This is when you know your talented.This song makes me feel like the sky isnt even the limit. What a beautiful song. Thanks Peter.

[ellisdee14]

The best music the best times the best groups...

[tiramasopa]

It's a great song :-)

[PurpleBlueHaze]

[lamarimpala]

[bigdsears]

Alternate title to this album:

'Very large left hand'

[KnobGoblinsFearMyMox]

LMFAO!!!! Good call.

[jmulhern2323]

i wish a current band would step up and cover this song. its reaks of new wave, but i can't think of band who can do it justice now

[tiramasopa]

I personally would love to see Noel Gallagher (ex-Oasis) doing an acoustic rendition of this song :-)

[lamarimpala]

NAH

[SupernalOne]

this is a lovely song. Thanks for posting it. Does anybody have Seven Veils by Peter Murphy, that they might post? That one is nice as well, with a real mystic-anthemic quality and a nice on-the-verge-of-feedback guitar passage -

[SPDuffy1]

Jesus christ, you are a complete loser if you are posting comments about "shit". Why do bother? I know. You have no life. Find a hobby.

[porcelainXdolls]

You're a fucking retard... nuff said.

[xXRoBeRtXHaYdNXx]

why even click the damn video if you don't like the song? if you don't like it Dont fucking watch it! but don't post comments like this. it just makes you look like a shithead.

[mensakimmie]

Simply exquisite.

[enickma]

This song is perfection .....

[quiquelias1]

Thank God in Lima we have a Club where it is normal to dance, alone, in the dark, great songs this this!!! its called NEBULA

[orphiusflux]

You can dance alone in the dark?

I can see that being fun.

[jsnale]

a lovely music uaaau.

[zerovago23]

es un excelente video del rock ochentero y que hoy en dia la radio, salvo honrosas particularidades han tenido el honor de incluir en su barra musical y que ello hace no perder de v ista al murcielago nocturno

[efzt]

@zerovago23  hable ingles o callete gordito!

[jorgempcunha]

one simple word: GREAT!!! one of the best musics of Peter... i love bauhaus too, peter murphy was a singer of bauhaus before.. the gothic music is fantástic..

[BashtarPinhead1982]

Peter Murphy is Morpheus! :D

[bigdsears]

pretty nice album cover i guess...  his left hand looks kinda big

[silmalila]

Huh. Never noticed that before bigdsears.

But you're right, it really does look HUGE.

Strange I never noticed something so obvious before...

[bigdsears]

well, you know what they say about guys w/ big hands...

[silmalila]

Oh my...

I would have to RUN AWAY from 'hands' like that, even Peter Murphy's!

: )

[bigdsears]

Ha.... funny... touche'

[xxDickBonesxx]

Haha yeah I bought the LP a month ago, and finally took it out the other day, had a real look and was like... wtf were they thinking when they made this album. Awful colors and a humongous hand.

[silmalila]

Yeah, its a great LP but the artwork sucks.

Couldn't agree with you more.

[sagizanne]

grows on you like a good fungus

[inreanre]

Happy Birthday, Peter.

[kyungmee100]

yes! Sorry..Highline Ballroom!!! Tonight he is in PA!

[kyungmee100]

Saw him at the Ballroom in NY -7/6th! Awsome show! He sang everything I could wish for and loved his NEW SONGS! Loved his voice beautiful voice and moves! ONE THING I HAVE TO MENTION! There was a little boy around 8 years old there with his parents in the front row (next to me). I thought that was the coolest thing. He thanked the little boy and his parents and GAVE THE BOY his KEYBOARD! He was truely great to us last night! His performance, energy, emotions, and his connection to his fans!

[YungHoodz]

Highline Ballroom?

[KuntreeRetardScandal]

ha,... now we're talkin,...wow.. I was all about this one for sure,...

[SniffTheHedgehog]

So tell us how was your last commercial record recieved? Nah, didn't think so ... Small people inhabit small minded worlds ... where they are 'rock gods'. The open minded have no option but to put up with them ...

[SuperRod88]

Magnificent words and incredible music. Makes me dream away.

[monchoduran90]

Impresionante canción!!

[ChloeDancer04]

I agree. His lyrics have the intricacy of poetry. Such a great voice as well.

[incubustdd]

This is such a beautiful song-it's like a poem set to music! Gorgeous~

[mrbasaball62]

Peter is a hell of artist, and has had an awesome career, solo and with Bahaus.

[nadoanacleto]

sonzaço!!!muito bom!!the best!!!
