Underwaterboys - Shriekback

[TORVENIUS]

from which movie is the first video clip?

[amjabs69]

I bought this in 1987 (cassette), and lost it eventually. Thank you for posting this- one of my all time favorite night chill out songs.

[divavee1]

this song made me a fan for life

[cloud74buster]

@divavee1 that's good for both, you n' shiekback ;-)

[dester007]

Any free mp3 download out there for this song?

[xxtiaan]

[dorothea41008]

this is a masterpiece!feels like swimming with dolphins..

[Rufusgold]

to HitchHikersBlues: Actually, I don't consider myself a 'retard' just because I'm in a wheelchair. :( But I will see if one of my care givers can find it for me. I was hurt by your cruel response and hope that you never have to experience much hardship in your life and if you do, I hope the people you come into contact with are a bit more compassionate than you have been to me.

[Rufusgold]

@SonOfLancereto68 Thank you so much for your kind words. The world needs more people like you! :)

[HitchHikersBlues]

Oh, desire...

Thee ashes and the fire...

[charlesremschel7]

basically there wasnt room for Andy and  Barry to exspress THE big exspress--love them both but would take X.T.C first

[Rufusgold]

Why, oh why, is this song not available for purchase on iTunes?????!!!!!

[HitchHikersBlues]

@Rufusgold Go OUT to a (MUSIC SHOP) and buy it on Vinyl or CD you Retard.

What is wrong with some people?

[hamburgler57]

Miami Vice anyone? "Knock Knock, Who's There?"

[101Volts]

I like it. I think some Shriekback albums should be on my "To buy next" List.

[cloud74buster]

@101Volts Do so! "Oil & Gold" and "Big night music" are superb.

[101Volts]

@cloud74buster Thanks for the recommendations. I think once I get started its likely I'll end up buying their whole discography.

[Werewolf9098]

@cloud74buster I know it's being a long time, but what bout Jam Science? It's also good enough.

[fyahselectaperfecta]

[madkiwihosting]

Always made me feel like i was doing something naughty but nice

[madkiwihosting]

i haved lovedthis as well none i know as ever heard of them

[madkiwihosting]

Karen Hay NZ loved these guys

[RainPoetry]

Beautiful. Who can write lyrics like this? Profound and poetic. Had to look up fata morgana.

[cloud74buster]

@RainPoetry as far as i know, it's a weather phenomenon at the south, seas quite dangerous for the sailing ships.

[ratbatboo]

@cloud74buster

The name Fata Morgana is Italian, derived from Morgan le Fay, King Arthur's half-sister, an enchantress, a lesser queen of faerie and illusion...Thus the tying-in of the 'fairy castle' mirage to her name.

[Petrowycz]

@RainPoetry fata morgana = mirage

[Niveabody12345678910]

What are some more seductive slow songs, like this? Great job on the video and for the video up load cloud74buster!

[cloud74buster]

@Niveabody12345678910 hmmmmmm, try Bjork's - Come to me, George Michael's - Strangest thing, Barry Adamson's - Vibes ain't nothing but vibes & Massive's - Exchange....for a start. Thank you for your kindness.

[Niveabody12345678910]

@cloud74buster

Honestly cloudbuster, you know some really good music. I ended up looking up all of these and just loved them. If you have anymore, pitch them my, okay ? THANKS! <3

[cloud74buster]

@Niveabody12345678910 happy you enjoyed them, i'll pm you soon.

[101Volts]

@Niveabody12345678910 Dan Bejar has made similar music with his band Destroyer. Not all his music is quite as slow as this particular Shriekback song but you might enjoy some of his songs such as Foam Hands, Kaputt, Its Gonna Take An Airplane and From Oakland To Warsaw.

[Spugester26]

Brilliant tunes! Now I understand why Michael Mann loved this band! In Miami Vice this was pure dynamite and in Manhunter their stuff blew me away. Vive la 80's, Miami Vice, Michael Mann & Shriekback!

[SOPRANO9545]

Miami Vice.

Season 3, ep. Knock knock, who's there....

1987

Speechless!!!

[beowulven]

Absolutely brilliant work.

[agumberovski]

Greta ... great ... great ... great ...great

fabulous ... speechless ... fearless ...

outstanding ...

[vulpine57042]

Beautifully done. The imagery fits the music to a tee.

There's so few people I come across that know who shriedback is. I've loved them since I first heard them somewhere around 1986 or '87.

[irlandos1]

fantastic

thx

[joshyfire1]

I listen to Slayer, and I listen to Shriekback. Awesome stuff!

[isdfgbsdf]

Loving this again tonight........blush on!! big night music is awesome......if you want a copy just say so. It's the least I can do.Thx again for this dreamy vid. Luv ya cloudbuster.--A

[cloud74buster]

@isdfgbsdf thank you my friend for the offer. I've got a nice vinyl copy of "big night music" which i've used to accompany the video. If you pay attention to the sound, you can listen to the scraches of the disk.

[thomas74ish]

Great song, and what an amazing and beautiful video you have made for this cloud74buster.... fantastic work I must say, or rather... ART is the correct expression!!  BIG applaus from Copenhagen, Denmark.

[cloud74buster]

@thomas74ish thank you for being so kind & generous to your comment!

[isdfgbsdf]

awesome............simply awesome.........Thank you for your amazing creativity,as well as your dedication. I just bought "big night music" from amazon.....it cost me 50 bucks.......I don't care......having this album,this songa s well as running on the rocks ......makes me happy..... ; )

[cloud74buster]

@isdfgbsdf oh! i think i'm blushing, thank you.

[drausrrr]

wonderful! didnt know this video existed.. i love this band so much!

[63gstone]

Check out the guy swimming with the dolphin at the end when they are toughinb noses. There has dobe some connection there.

[estelledutoit]

the best song ever!!!!! intelligent music the likes of we don't hear these days!!

[isdfgbsdf]

how do i find this to download...help....

[tunguska1969]

I wore out about 3 cassettes listening to this Album and Big Night Music.

I couldn't even say what my fave was from those albums, each time I hear ONE of the songs "that's my favorite".

Nice job, was kicking my butt when I started watching this...that I hadn't seen the video before. haha

[jkallih]

type in "The Devil In Miss Jones Restored" to see rare short clip of Shriekback

[pvandeneng]

very, VERY nicely done.

[thesound59]

So rarely do posters make a video that reflects the mood and ambience of the song it accompanies. You have done a masterful job indeed., One of my favourite Shriekback tracks.Congratulations!

[cloud74buster]

@thesound59 your reward is a rich refund compare to my effort, thank you so much

[JWMoonlizard]

Are you thinking of Cradle Song?

[szjozsi]

Shriekback: the gift of the 20th century.

[beowulven]

Marry me. You see what precious few do. That dim light, a streetlamp in a snowstorm. I need friends like you.

[SoundslikeLucyfer]

Shriekback! For God's sake one more world tour please. Way ahead of the times guys

[sygnalGotAllWierd]

some eclectic shit.

[INITIALSJE]

Seriously though, that person on ebay is a joke.

You can buy the whole album for cheaper than that! Look around, google some music stores, some places are cheaper than others. I had that album on cassette, vinyl, and cd at different times throughout my life, but it's not that hard to obtain a copy, just a little harder than it used to be.

[INITIALSJE]

You can find it (cradle song) from a variety of places, you just have to search for it. I'd tell ya how to find it, but I can't risk my youtube privileges.

[GalvaWalken8]

From the "Knock Knock, Who's There?" episode of Miami Vice.

[beowulven]

Wow. You're obviously younger than me, but big up!

[str8sick]

Faded Flowers Running on the rocks This big hush And This I can never get tired of

[thorazine666]

SAME HERE SHITS MINDBOGGLING

[beowulven]

Oil & Gold + Big Night Music. That's the real shit.

[MarinaCvetic]

Meravigliosa..

Miami Vice Stagione 3

[death2hiphopnRnB]

Also, it uses that same haunting Fairlight keyboard that Jean Michel Jarre used on Rendezvous part 1. Such an awesome sound.

[death2hiphopnRnB]

As featured during season 3 of Miami Vice. A classic!

[osnodaigh69]

Anyone know where I can find Cradle Song? I know it's on Big Night Music, but that CD is even $60 on eBay.

[fibeera]

search google video for Shriekback - I just saw a "Cradle Song"audio link there and listened to that great lullaby!

[beowulven]

It was, literally, a lullaby for Finn Andrews, who's now a musician himself. A song so great almost makes me want children. Er, but not quite...

[beautydaddy]

Wondering where Nirvana got their first cover idea from?

[beautydaddy]

Masterpiece is correct, no literacy like this these days.

[nikasn]

Masterpiece!!!

[kiwijohn01]

Brilliant album too!

[Rayocasablanca]

Excellent video for a beautiful song. One of my Shriek favs.

[cloud74buster]

thanks for your comment, i'm so glad you like it.

[stavrakis1966]

@cloud74buster that was a fantastic video for a fantastic song

[5eurocups2005]

There is no doubt about it that they are a Great Band, he has a great voice

[quasarsphere]

They didn't tank. Well, not permanently, tho "Go Bang" was, by Andrews' own admission, bollocks. But their two most recent albums are excellent.

[kschumac]

Very very good video. Thanks for uploading this great song too

[woohooyeeha]

Wonderful and fantastic. This and 'Exquisite' are my two favourite tracks from the LP. The basslines are so hypnotic to those two songs.

You have done a brilliant job putting images to the sounds.

[scottrc5391]

yeah can someone please put Exquisite up?

[toyboy4u04]

beautiful song..very seductive too ;)

[rdclerck]

Wonderful piece of video w/ music as art. Have always loved this underrated song and band. Well done.

[cloud74buster]

Thank you for one thing, what you said about the song that is underrated is the reason i made this video. I' m happy that you liked it.
