'Destination' live at Batschkapp in Frankfurt, Germany 28th Jun 1988. Must be one of the live songs I've heard most in my life.

Quote from: SueC on September 06, 2021, 13:04:20Not that this sound was at all typical of the 80s, which is why I liked it then, and like it now! :angel

one of the world's finest bands. need to see them live asap! 'Destination' and 'Hotel Womb' bring back so many memories...

Their back catalogue is enormous... I'm having fun getting things I don't have yet and am really looking forward to Hologram of Baal:beaming-face

Brett and I recently caught Steve Kilbey at our local 600 seater - fabulous concert; I reported on it here! So here's another favourite...not bad for a second album...

Meant to post this earlier, must have heard this particular live version a hundred times...

Don't have many memories of this band from the eighties, knew of them but only bought first record in 1990.

"Two rights
Can easily make a wrong
Heard that in some old folk song
One as old as the hills

Cabin fever
Said I'd leave here
But I'm already gone
Already gone"

The holy city breathed like a dying man...

Thanks Ulrich, perfect song to start this day with.
Somehow it reminded me of this:

@Pongo Glad you like it, indeed that sounds similar (maybe the timing/chords)!

How does "Bossa Nova" or "Nouvelle Vague" sound to you?  ;)


"When it's tricky, when it gets tough,
When you need to feel that you're good enough,
All you pretty people who've been taken over.
Had better start looking for your own answers.
'Cause there's no safety in numbers anyway,
Or in a new wave

What about the new wave?
Did you think it would change things?"

How did I miss this? #np

New video (directed by band member Nico Mansy):


"every day i die a little bit more
in a silent way
i fight my little wars
since you disappeared
is that forevermore?
everyday, i fight my little wars
in a hundred ways
i die a little bit more"
The holy city breathed like a dying man...

Completely fell in love ♥ with this music by Anne Nikitin - the end-music to a gorgeous film we were watching - and have gone and bought the soundtrack.


That's only a taster - the end-song is more than twice this long, and of course there's lots of other tracks.

Here a track with the magnificient Blixa Bargeld:


Ulrich

"I ring the doorbell in your mind
But it's locked from the outside
You won't see me you won't see me"
