Danielle Dax - BIG HOLLOW MAN

[flexn5000]

Ive known about this trac since it 1st came out,,,but just today I learned the title of it and who the singer is. I always requested this trac by singing ..walking in the valley of.....and hey yeah.....amazingly the djs always knew which trac to play.

[EastCoastDude]

Wow. Just heard of Danielle Dax for the first time today. What a great song here, among many others apparently, and what a smart person in interviews.Wtf! Danielle is something else! Very cool, amazing!

[TheWalrusWasDanny]

She was a big star for me!!

Danny

[SuperSteelydanfan]

[SuperSteelydanfan]

old new wwave

[gregbye331]

Love this! My girlfriend at the time (1988) had the LP of Inky Blotters. I still have a cassette copy. Will now go search for a CD.

[MrSid1971]

Good stuff...80s indie..cant beat it :)

[GiorniVenibato]

So is she the mother of Lindsey Lohan???

[rhythmicginger]

If it's any consolation, we all LOVED Danielle back in the 80's. The Rock City dancefloor packed out for this tune as I recall :)

[badtracking]

@rhythmicginger I saw her play live at Rock City in '91 i think it was. Good times!

[bogscraper]

Gaga my ASS!

[SuperGraceslick]

Danielle Dax was a star if you asked the right people!

[michiyo6666]

i met danielle dax in tokyo^^ and she was really nice person^^

[CactusScreamO]

she's an awesome singer, and she's beautiful!

[JohnnyLovely2]

this is her best video i think!

[Glowb0t]

sexyhawt

[dracojosh]

Seriously love this song and this lady. Miss her.

[WoodRatGirl]

"HEY YEAH!" She reminds me of a sexy blonde feline.

[TheInfantofprague]

I used to run to the dancefloor when this was play'd all those years ago... so glad to hear it once again...:))

[boerenlol]

I remember this song from the Summer of 1987, heard it on the on the radio just the once. Initially I thought it was a Belgium singer from the French speaking region.

(Beeg 'Ollow Men) ;--))

[panagiotouchris]

this is very angsty makes me wanna throw up

[sisterdebmac]

Jeebus, Dark Adapted Eye is one of the best albums EVER!

[mrspolson]

Don't think ppl really understand how genius some of her lyrics were, she was so overlooked.....why? x

[VikingRaider]

Love BIG HOLLOW MAN!! ..... She's IS great I admit,... but she was up against MEGA stars that were rising quickly around her, and which could produce many top 10 hit singles. Remember: the 80s were the single wildest and weirdest explosion of musical diversity mankind has, or will, ever see!!

[shandamoon]

She could rock those plumes! Heee... I remember when this was on the radio, late at night, the DJ said somebody called requesting this song but didn't know the title or artist and said something along the lines of "satanic chipmunks, Lena Lovich" and the DJ had the guy sing a few bars-- live! (did a pretty good impersonation actually)

[rustybuckets07]

R4949-she IS a huge star..dont confuse commercial success with actual clout.I cant imagine having growing up without her.I only saw her live once but it was a small venue and a moment I will always remember.I still have a leather jacket with a black and white painting on the back (goth standard) of Danielle.The jacket itself became known as Danielle ..by me and others..weird.I only wish she still fitted me.

[ahzak]

I love her since 20 years and more....Danielle you r beautiful hope you are ok !!!!

[NameyMD]

This should've been something like the biggest hit of the eighties am I right.

[shaynapunim1]

@NameyMD You're not right; you're ABSOLUTELY right!

[Galacticmaster]

she is scary

[INITIALSJE]

@Galacticmaster Yeah, scary HOT!!!

[SpiritualSlutt]

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥☠

[ginesik0]

I LOVE HER!!! JAJAJA THE BEST!!!

(from EspaÑa) xD

[Whydoesthissitesuck]

BR?

[IgorSavtchenko]

Classic track. This used to get played at LA clubs periodically.

[mariovka]

i love love love love love love her.

soundrack to my life. thanks for the clip!

[rtejon]

I'm late to discover her, too, and I'm noticing a range that reminds me of both Annie Lennox, Nina Hagen and maybe a couple others, at least.

[lordbodo63]

I love this song! She is fantastic live - and that hair!

[SayuriNitta84]

uh Danielle Dax How many memories!!

[Homoholic]

Danielle is truly very beautiful. Her good looks are more evident in other videos like 'Cathouse' or 'Tomorrow Never Knows' just to name a couple.

I saw her opening for THE SISTERS OF MERCY in Toronto in the 90s and she awesome (despite some technical sound issues).

[accidentcauser]

i saw her on that tour as well....but i didn't know much about her then...

[berniex2]

I saw that same show in San Diego with Lush, but I went really just to she her. She was wearing this silver strapped hot pants outfit, hair tied tight on top of her head ( really long by the way ) and oh my god probably the most beautiful and talented female musician I've ever seen live and I've seen hundreds of concerts. I wish I could have seen Kate Bush live though. You know it's a sad world we live in now on what people believe is talent and beauty these days. Thanks for sharing.

[andyosira]

@berniex2 think I played on that gig for Danielle (LG) - was the venue Irvine Meadows in San Diego ? - a pleasure of a singer to work for, v dedicated to her music, musicians, and also the fans - remember Lush singer .... big gig with SIsters Of Mercy too ..... Vision Thing era (.... I'll give my kingdom for my memory back ...)

[sirvidia]

@berniex2 stop moaning about the present and get on with it

[andyosira]

@Homoholic yeah, was on that tour - we had loads of sound issues at one or two venues - I remember the road manager giving the mixman a huuuuuuuge bollocking on front of all of us and the sisters of mercy road/sound crew saying his 6yo daughter could do a better job (at Phoenix I think .... seemed to some the guy was out of his depth) - she deserved better (and later found it !)

[KRISPYKWENT29]

Best female Drag Queen here! Well done Girl!

[grantzx]

fantastic to hear Danielle Dax again

[xyaqua]

Uber rocker!

She came from money, this is a truly authentic album: She really puts her soul into it, no BS half attempt.

That she used her resources to make this is really outstanding. Freaking cool name, voice that could kill on contact.

[cuprarosa]

she acted in 'the company of wolves'.

[desertracker]

OK...I Feel Bad Now...I Have Been Listnening To Dax Since The Mid 90's And This Is Her First Video I Have Seen...

[Gozzillacia]

Great grove- great song.

[EyeLove]

Brings back memories-cheers for sharing!

[84211805]

I like this tune. Theres no threpenny bits though, which is the real downfall here.

[rlobo]

i'm scared mummy

[effeffeff]

One of my favourite songs of all time, from a seriously undervalued artist. Thanks R4949 for sharing!

[tjh0225]

Her music is not hard to come by at all. She's got talent but, must she look like a 13 year old boy in his moms old 80's cloths? Throws me off.

[bellapauldegi]

you need to get to specsavers quickly.

[pessimystica]

cool!! hadn't seen this video in years. i 1st saw this at #'s Nightclub in Houston... not til late 90s, i was too young in the late 80s ;-) i honestly didn't really care for this song that much, but the more i heard it, it grew on me a lot. her music's kinda hard to come by though!

[ilycedehl]

Thank you for sharing! I've always been curious to see this. I definitely had Inky Bloaters on vinyl, I remember from the beautiful cover how cool a video styled similarly would be. She's so pretty!

[Elektrapunk]

Danielle could have been in Shock I always thought that - not sure if she can dance but visually and musically great ;-)

[4skinmasseure]

Beautiful. Thank you for posting.

[oisian88]

i saw her in England...I love her, and she deserved to be huge!!!

[darkviewman]

exellent

[caymansbanker]

One of the bext club songs of my time.  Thanks for the post.

[j1i2m3i4]

Brings back fond memories of sleazy clubs and great nights out. Thanks for posting.

[swanktrendz]

I bought Inky Boaters when it came out and it was (is) one of my favourites! Brilliant. She should have been more known!

[tjh0225]

One of my favs as well. It is puzzling why she wasn't more known..."a consequence of never being sure..."

[johnnyorbit]

I used to LOVE this song. I haven't heard it in like 10 years!

[bwbarbie]

I had no idea that you did a video for Ms Dax, a brilliant songwriter-singer, in my opinion. She's a goddess and I loved this album. Well done for putting up this video!
