psychedelic furs - blacks/radio/chaos

[Bish530]

Dicovered them in 82 aged 15 post 'Love My Way' - New Romantics were to rule for 2-3 years but scratch the surface and I'm proud to be part of this....

finally found a u tube video that actually has coments that are what they should be....about the music..wasent sure such a place existed!!!

[FarleyTube]

I just saw them live and if they would have played this, that concert would have gone from awesome to superawesome. They only played one song from that album though.

[Aneokame]

I can't even begin to form the words to say how incredible this song is, and the Furs in general. Absolute perfection. One of my favs.

[mattthetoadlicker]

I remember buying this first album,on a pure whim and having NEVER heard the Furs, back in 1989 nearly nine years after it was released. I will never forget the goose bumps that surged up my skin during India, to transform to tears of pure joy once this song did a seamless sugue from Blacks to Radio. Fucking superb!

This band was 40 years ahead of its time...and with this track alone..firmly labelled Mainstream music then and henceforth...under "Dross"....including stuff from that knob Eminem.

[bHopperC]

yeah, Richard Butler pushed bouandries that some people would never understand...he was a fucking poet!

[GardnerGoldsmith]

This cut was culled from the US release of the First Disc (called too controversial for the States). I had to hear it about four years later, and was slammed -- not only by the lyrics, but by the way this composition shows how the Furs handled their live approach, somehow combining two different songs, with a transition that's incredibly subtle, detectable only in the modification of the drums 4:00 -4:08. Suddenly, you've got "Radio"! Ingenius. Harsh. Caustic. Awesome.

[GruesomeLue]

classic...

[steveobie1]

If this wasn't up I was going to add it today....don't need to bother now!....awesome job!

[Crustalshift]

[petermurphreak]

Because something fucking SHIFTED in the UNIVERSE when bands like The Psychedelic Furs stepped on the stage in the '80's!!!....

a seriously underrated song from the most underrated band - but that's after all how it should be.
