Prefab Sprout - Goodbye Lucille #1 (Live in Munich 1985)

[dobbsiancant]

such a criminally under-rated band.unfortunately they had the wrong hair cuts for the vapid eighties.

[mcinfinitydream]

Superbe !

[1970juanes]

cómo los quiero a estos pibes!!

[jluc1969]

Great !!!

[lbarsch70]

OMG, one of the finest pieces of music ever made.Steve McQueen is perhaps the best pop album of all times. But I also adore Thomas Dolby as producer, I think the Sprouts wouldn't have sounded that unbelievable and totally unique without him. Their music will NEVER die (until the end of our civilisation, electric power supply and our technical facilities opening the gates to this musical miracle)!!! (Please excuse my bad English)

Tune

[felipinio]

the solo at the end is timeless

[chosenmisery]

been listening to them since i was 13 yrs old, together w/the less familiar bands of the new wave era / romantics.i remember knowing them as "not Pop," ' cause pop then sucks.remember hearing the whole vinyl line-up of "2 wheels good" / steven mcqueen on a rainy day, hearing me sigh,saying....gloom....beauti­fully gloom.how did they do that? never heard anything like it during those times.goodbye penny.

10 000 view for Prefab, 1 000 000 000 for Lady Gaga...

What's wrong with this world? Does anyone have ears around here? Come on everybody, feel the power of a real songwriter.

[TheNuwaver]

@simasgar amen to that

[lbarsch70]

@simasgar

I love the Sprouts so much. They're part o my life for 25 years since i was 15. Please tell me, what's wrong with lady gaga, she's one of the astonishing artists of the last years. Please watch her acoustic sessions on youtube and maybe change your mind. She really has talent, (acts) emotion and is an entertainer like a rebirth of Freddy Mercury, a little bit burlesque, gay and in a totally untrue way lovely. What nowadays music should have a million views iyo.(Sorry for bad English)

[simasgar]

@lbarsch70 I don't deny the fact she may be talented, i just can't bear she got so many attention while there are so many great bands just like the sprout wich will remain unknown forever.

[Zimontube1]

@simasgar such as?

[elkabras]

I wish I`d born in 70`......but let me see....now I`d be 40 even¡¡¡Nooooo¡¡¡¡xDDD the Sprouts made such a terrible songs¡¡¡¡ Love it ¡¡

[davemja]

This song ... so beautiful, almost too much. The most sophisticated and emotive band of the 80's for sure - and I can't say they have ever been matched for songwriting, melody, sound ... stunning. I remember the first time I heard them - my fave alternative radio show, buried late on Sunday nights on a rock station - Lions in My Own Garden, Exit Someone came on ... and that was all it took. I was staggered, and remain as excited about their music today, almost 30 years later. And a new disc!!

[rula42]

outstanding! and i love this drummers style!

The songwriting of Paddy is so far beyond reach

( i am a songwriter, too...but not jealous...lol)

[iainwish]

What are you - 21? Why don't you give it a rest? Classic

[joebore]

i sooo love this band, one of the reasons why the 80s is such a great decade in music.

Uno de los mejores temas de Prefab Sprout

One of the best tunes of Prefab Sprout

[SEANBANOG4]

aw Paddy

[govindasantos]

hall of fame

[LaurenceChandler]

I'm a classical fan really, but this kind of music just transcends preconceived musical prejudices. All good music does that, and that's what this is.

[PatsyS3]

Steve Mc'Queen,one of the best albums ever made......bar none!!,every track is excellent well composted gems!,everybody who loves music should own a copy!....

Nuff'said

[chrisposito]

[bandypaul]

1.bonny 2.goodbye lucille 3. til the cows come home 4. when love breaks down 5. life of surprizes....one of the greatest ever..

[2perishable]

Thanks for all the Sprouts video. I have been a fan since Steve McQueen and this is the first time I have seen videos of them. What you've done here needs to be commended, especially since Paddy's health seems to be deteriorating rapidly. He needs to be knighted.

[trinityroadb6]

This song makes me cry everytime, it's beautiful! Awesome band!

[toddbulky]

The most sophisticated band of the Eighties - complex and simple at the same time. Utter perfection.

[seanie002]

one of the finest british songwriters ever

(if not the best)!!!

[dsherm32]

Thanks for adding this video. I loved this band and this is good footage / sound. One of the best pop bands ever, great lyrics and music.
