Outstanding song!
My little bro used to think they were singing, "Lou Reed".
I cannot hear it without thinking of Lou Reed now- not that there's anything wrong with that. Lou Reed rocks! I'm pretty sure the Gurus would concur.

I bought this when it first came out, on 33rpm vinyl. I think they were still kind of on the margins in NZ at the time, but I had heard them on a late-night music show on TV called 'Radio with Pictures', hosted by Karen Hay. Anyone from NZ in the 80's should recognise those names pretty well.
Well, this album takes me right back to summer holidays, probably '85 when I spent 3 months at Waihi beach sleeping in the back of a 1968 Holden 'Special' with our boards on the roof.
What a summer.

Death Defying-I am very moved by this song! Hoodoo Gurus should have been huge by now! Dave Faulkner is a genius!

Everything is right with this song. It is not so much played and sung as it is "painted", if you will, in the mind. The vocals are refined and at times raw. The rhythm is just fast enough to rock, and the song structure is impeccable, seriously. This fu$%ing thing actually brings tears to my eyes still, after all these years- this is what music should do. Yay!
Wow! Probably my favorite song from a band I'll always be grateful I got the chance to be a fan of. Great to hear far far from home. Thanks miketheblueeagle.
