House Of Love | Destroy The Heart - SnubTV

[andreaneilcmc]

Did Guy Chadwick, when he finally grew into his face become Gordon Ramsay?

[dibzzz]

Unbelievable.

[jasuelimeatyahoocom]

1987 i iived on a doorstep switching from 1 station to another usually radio 1 to atlantic 1988 started secondary school and watched the 5th years push acid house onto me with no pressure it was the way of the student and working class still findng there feet what i want to know is why my class was the smiths teenage fanclub roses and all that type and not showing me destroy the heart found myself in my mid thirties discovering who the jam did not do was this song inspired by joy division.

[skeletonkey6]

Flick your fag, Chadwick!

[whitesoldier1962]

Lip read his comment at the very end 7.18 "That was crap that" class moment , Chadwick forever the perfectionist!

[Philmod68]

I agree with the both above comments...you CAN'T even put Coldplay and the House of Love in the same league! I remember first hearing Coldplay and right away thinking "who are these LAMEASSES trying to use the House of Love sound....Its like a bad version and they SUCK!" hahaha

[peaeater1]

The Coldplay comparison only works as far as both have a lead singer that crawled up his own arse and became a complete fucking tool.

[johnsgriff17]

I saw them and heard them for the first time in 1997 at St Andrews hall in Detroit, they are so cool and under rated. Love them to this day. I can;t stop listening to them.

[mrPurple365]

I discovered them late and followed them till their ends... the latest album was okai, no disgrace for a band reunited. I called them white boy pop with soul and people laughed. I don't know how else yo describe them: "Indie" seems like a blanket slur.

[winggoddess]

what is the name of the second song that plays on this video?

[homcorleone]

@winggoddess

Man To Child.

[homcorleone]

@winggoddess

Man To Child (from the self titled debut album).

[winggoddess]

the way that guy talks reminds me of ozzy osborne.

[peaeater1]

The HOL did some great tunes and this demonstrates how they could kick it live too, but Guy Chadwick always was a dick. Levitation proved that point.

[SirDorothy]

I never realised Guy Chadwick was so eloquent.

[wwwtherockernl]

Brilliant! Around 1990 one of the best bands in the world.

[greatleapforwards]

@wwwtherockernl - what do you mean - 20+ yrs down the line and their music is just as relevant as it was then. and to those comparing hol to coldplay...really???

[magocacana]

what a a great band!!!

I miss em so much

[thesound59]

For those who reads, this go and buy this bands catalog right away. You will not be disappointed! This band had everything except ....much deserved success! HOL if you read this-I want to know it's not the quantity of the fans but the passion of the fans for the music you produce!

[shadowcatphaser]

Has anyone noticed this man to child song has the same

melody as 'shine on' just a lot slower? Still nice tho.

[standenberg]

It's not just nostalgia, these were great days. When real-indie bands like HOL were around, even Snub TV was cool.

[Browny180]

God bless You tube!

Not heard this for 10 + years.

Smashing!

[MCNOISE666]

Gas Coldplay.

[beermtb]

Guy Chadwick is Quentin Tarantino and I claim my five euros.

[number7gracestreet]

Guy Chadwick - you are a 3 things: a great song writer; a Conceited self indulgent: and probably much more....

wish you well.

signed, a fan

[moonuk]

Yea agree.....If it wernt for their bad TIMING & THE STONE ROSES THIS BAND COULD HAVER BEEN BIG BIG BIG!!!!!!!!!!!

[tigerboy1966]

Great band who came along at exactly the wrong time. Five years earlier or later they would have been much bigger.

[debatechamp]

I Love U2 - but I wonder how they rose against so many great bands from this time

[elektromode]

the best song never made.

[skrason]

Wow.

[DavidGolder]

Top version of "Man to Child". Awesome guitar by Bickers.

[chinesesloppyplop]

Fuck yea,i love the house of love the house of love the etc.are they back together again?:)

[johnmwaugh]

drugs anyone? who really needed the happy mondays anyway?

[ApopheniaIV]

I saw Chadwick at that Cure thing in London when they had that stupid big lake in front of the stage. He had his black and white stripey top on. I walked past him and said alright mate.

Worst Cure gig ive ever been to - and it was windy

[wildenfree]

Hey, I remember that gig...Crystal Palace werent it.

[mifune141]

Wow, amazing performance of this awesome song! Thanks for posting!

[salparadise1971]

Look at Chadwick as he fucks right into it.

Classic House of Love.

Still cant touch Love in a Car though.

[weehairyman]

It was at the Brighton Top Rank Suite (I think it changed its name to the Event - don't know what it is called now) and I was there! They were amazing.

[olliesdrunk]

I don't get these comparisons - why do people always feel the need to do this? Coldplay don't come close to The House of Love in any respect - Guy Chadwick was never considered "good looking" and did not have to marry an American Actress for people to love him - he just wrote some of the best songs you will ever hear

[HairyBosch]

I'm with olliesdrunk on this. Saying that HOL paved the way for Coldplay is like saying that without Public Enemy, we would never have had the pleasure of hearing Gareth Gates and his ilk. (A) it's just wrong and (B)if it were true, it's not something that should be applauded.....

[dommywaddle]

Too right. House of Love and Coldplay? Nothing in common. One is cracking indie music and the other is wimp rock.

[fausto80]

coldplay is monotonous garbage which suits the plain and homogenous people nowdays. just your average joe music. where as this whimp rock at least is different. i never knew these guys when i was a kid i found them by accident trying to find another song and think they are awesome. i love you

[Taleggio]

@dommywaddle true, and dude in the background has ace hair, ;-)

[z1rakz1gal]

@dommywaddle go to the top of the class. i saw coldplay at the bigdayout in perth when 'yellow' came out (ok, it was ages ago), the crowd stood there til it came on then left to go hear..erm, oh i dont remember..maybe, new order!

[Taleggio]

@olliesdrunk indeed

[ericthegardenerisfin]

@olliesdrunk Couldn't agree with you more...

[walkouttowinter]

Interview segment is fucking hilarious. Look at Bickers, he's smacked out of his trees.

[PeopleRFragileThings]

What an awesome song! I stumbled across this band by accident. They once played a tiny clip of "Christine" on the British comedy show "Trigger Happy TV," and it took me forever to figure out who sang it.

[citizengood]

This live recording of Destroy the Heart is just electric - FANTASTIC!

The interview... More drugs anyone?

Man to child... So beautiful and tragic

[sectmaniac]

One of the best bands ever!! This is an amazing version of a classic!!

[freecarex]

wow... what a criminally ignored band... no ride or coldplay without them... hol were far superior tho

[AIFL]

Yes, Coldplay do sound like HOL, I didn't think anyone else noticed. HOL are far far superior obviously but there is a similarity. How exiting they are in comparison to the dour 'Oldpaly boys.

[kevanhughes]

What a fantastic tune !! Criminally underated.. then and now.. an indie classic.
