Check out my video for the song "An American Dream" by Love and Rockets on my channel... It's a bit controversial. The American Dream comes at the cost of others, which is what my video depicts.
I really love their music, and I love them. United in the Bauhaus, or alone in their solo careers, or part of Tones onTails, Dali's Car or Love and Rockets, they are brilliant anyway.
was that in london mzval ? i was there too. first time with green lasers... i missed bauhaus and was banned from seeing tones on tail by my mum for being 16 - anyway. caught LAR in 88 with the bubblemen. Kind of loved the bubblemen for being on the cover of MASK. revisiting, bauhaus are just devastating. utterly amazing. LAR, TOT, Peter Murphy, cant touch them. That was Alchemy
Thank you for putting this up. You have no idea how much I love this video, Daniel Ash, L&R, Tones on Tail, Bauhaus, Dali's Car.... etc are a part of my youth and present. Again, Thank You!
This song is as good as any of the great songs in rock history and I have heard them all from the Beatles to Nirvana to Matchbox Twenty. Great voice, lyrics and music with a little psychedelic fuzz guitar thrown in there. Love it. Peace.
I had the same experience on the first wave. I forgot how much I loved this album. Listen to this album with some great headphones and it is way up there. It really is one of the best albums of all time and I really mean it. WALL, MOBY, AND Love and Rockets.. 70s 80s and 90s .
I hear this song for the first time yesterday on XM Radio, the New Wave channel.
This definitely takes me back to my teens when music was smokin' hot. Nowadays you hear either rap (is that music??), or remakes of the best new wave songs. I guess musicians these days are running out of ideas, OR they just don't have much talent.
I used to rock myself to sleep with the "slow" version of this song back in the 80's. I prefer the slow version much better, but it's L&R! So brilliant!
Im i the only girl that find daniel ash fucken sexy .-. xD...lol i luv his face structure <3...i wish some guys looked like that this days =[, but no where i am from thier are fucken gay ass shufflers,pretty boys,and emos ]x....ewwwww
I do love the sound from this album,..........but these videos are hard to watch, its like bad stuff from the 80's concentrate, the big hair, splatter paint, femme clothing for dudes.
the whole Express album rocked. a lot of today's music, isn't even worth listening to. sure, there was crap, back then, but not to the extent that there is today...
@throwntomato - I completely agree with you on that. Even the newer hip bands out on the L.A. scene today don't seem to grab me the way the older bands did. Songwriting is at an all time low......
@throwntomato The Killers are a decent band but I hate to compare them with the likes of L&R or bands in that circle. They just don't write songs like they used to...
I love this song but I remember feeling very maternal when I saw the video for the first time. I wanted to prepare them all a month long set of proper meals. Those boys were so thin then. Please eat something, Jaysis!
david J and haskins are brothers yeah matched with the daniel and peter made a good match..I was always like "who's this guy alway's in a suit jacket and danny all crafty lookin and peter running around nut'z (hair of the dog and other vid's..there was alot.
true the bubblemen were the bandmembers, except on the tour they were the roadies. It was great to see them show up on the stage at the end of the show. though I saw Elements of the bubblemen on the lyrics sleeve for the Burning from the inside album.
The guys at the end of the video are "The Bubblemen" which was a side project of the band.
All the videos on here look like they're from "The Haunted Fishtank", which was a collection of Love and Rocket videos and featured the Bubblemen between videos. BTW, Its the guys from the band in the costumes.
I think both Haskins are very talented, to say that Daniel is all the talent is just coming from someone who doesn't know these guys history not just with this band but with Bauhaus as well. I guess to being a HUGE David J fan I take offense.
You can't say that one person is better than the others when they are a band. If just one is gone, Love and Rockets are no more. It takes all to create what they musically bring. It's more than music, it's emotion, and it needs all of them!!!
this song reminds me of my two week stay in a hospital in '88. a couple friends made me a mix tape and this one was on it; helped me get through that tough period of time.
