I bought this ( dave vanian picture cover - there were 4 different ones I think ) on holiday in Cornwall when I was 11...however also remember buying The Sparks No 1 song in Heaven at the same time????

What stood the test of time?

[Angusismyhero]

@cudworthblades I bought that same single last week! But because I'm at uni and my record player is at home, I just pinned Dave to my notice board. <3

Machine Gun etiquette...awesome album!

[barnowl01292]

Classic...

Still know all the lyrics!...

seems like yesterday...

[hartmusc]

5 stars. Of course.

But, a slight criticism. When then title said "with start & end", I thought you meant the start that was recorded on the album, i.e. the very drunk sounding:

"Ladeeesh an' Gentlemen. How-Do."

[RedBryn]

@hartmusc According to Captain Sensible, that was the voice of Coronation Street's Albert Tatlock, at the start of the album version of 'Love Song'.

[heyhopey]

I love this weird music!

[izabelgoudie]

I remember watching this (on totp) as if it was yesterday. i.e. this video and buying the single even though i was a heavy rock fan. My mate the next day would not believe the damned had played on TOTP. but as can be seen they didn't play their instruments. Still a powerful song along with New rose.

[CaptainMulletKOTP]

WAY before my time but these guys kick ass. Great band, great song.

GO CAPTAIN SENSIBLE!!!!!

[anarchygirl1]

Dear CaptainMulletKOTP, these might be before your time, but the music is timeless dont you think? As a band they have perfected their craft beyond belief over a 30 year period, if you have not seen them live, they are still touring regularly..go and see them..the most amazing energy you will ever feel with your clothes on! I interviewed 'The Captain' in 2007 at northumbria university...not only is he a musical Genius, but he is a complete gentleman. do yourself a big favour..go and see them !

[yorknomads]

definately a fantastic bloke a good friend of mine loves york was here last week with stu train spotting a down to earth musical genius simple as!!!!

[anarchygirl1]

I got that he was a down to earth guy when i interviewed him. i went to see them in my home town of Darlington on the 18th Nov(3 weeks ago). As usual they were brilliant, but the venue was not good. So you are mates with him are you?- would love to meet him again, can you get me an intro? how long have you been a fan?

[izabelgoudie]

just what you want want
