I remember watching this as a 13 yr old 30 years ago...The thing that will always stick in my mind is the awesome drumming and the clockwork drumming style i.e. arms held straight up and aloft looking like a clockwork toy! PS I cant stand Victoria Beckham is there anything wrong with me?

I cried when I heard Dazzle again and to see how many other people love her music! For me it is like an archeological find! Her music was the haight ashbury for my generation who was into the alternative movement - not really hardcore punk, not really new wave- and goth, what was that back then? Certainly not the lurid crap I hear these days. AND after 30 years, seeing what goth has evolved to is getting a little old like me, but I hope I still look as kick as she does at 50

I totally worshiped her, but she didn't get much air time back them and when I joined the army in the late 80's and moved away from the "scene" I almost forgot all about her until I saw the movie Notes on a Scandal where the lead character digresses back to her days of emanating Siouxie that I started looking her up

I think this was the first Siouxie song that I ever heard when I about 8 years old back in 1978 or 79. My mom's boyfriend was totally into punk. They used to go to punk gigs and he used to come home with his t-shirts ripped. I used to ask what happened? He used to say that it happened when he was dancing. It wasn't until I was 12 or 13 when my best friend's older brother was in the Vandals that I understood about the mosh pit and from those guys I heard more of Siouxie and I was hooked.
