Lyrics below:
The cracks in the ground grin up at me
Even the creases in my shoes smile up at me
Thought it would end in tragedy
But I'm swimming around in your glory
O Baby O maybe
I'm the lost and found
Look at the stars they're raining down
Even these jewels want to kiss your crown
Don't be afraid it's just your face
Has that effect on heavens' treasure case
O Baby O maybe
You're a paragon
I haven't felt this way before
Impossible to ask for more
Unanswered prayers that went before
Lie like leaves upon the floor
Hang all the world and universe
When I'm with you they always seem perverse
I'm in a state of weightlessness
When I inhale your angel breath
O Baby O maybe
I'm the lost and found

I'm this video! So rad to see my 6 year old self in a video by one of my favorite bands. :) Siouxsie and the Banshees rule.
Melissa Misfortune Really? It's a recurring subject between my sister and me, when we talk about music, vids, celeb gossip , etc., we see clips from the eighties and nineties and wonder what it feels like to see yourself in a video. It´s so funny! ( And you are sou lucky! )
Melissa Misfortune everyone in this video is so cute!
Melissa Misfortune could you tell me what she was saying when she was onstage speaking to the audience?? also, super cool that you were in this 👍
melissa misfortune i hope it’s not weird to reply since you commented this three years ago but did you and the other actors get to personally meet siouxsie?
Are you filmed on this video when you was a kid i understand correctly? Because my english level is low....... How old are you now? You very lucky person
Many people consider this song the worst of their career just because it sounds too sweet or soft, and many people have nailed in their minds the idea that S&TB are a goth band. But they are more than that. They have drowned in many different genres and topics throughout their career. They covered the whole human emotional spectrum. This song is about self-esteem and she's singing words that she tries to believe are for herself, as she reflects on how we depend on others to feel good about ourselves. That's represented on the beauty contest. She gets convinced that she needs of other's opinion to feel good about herself, just like the other little girls, but soon she realizes that's all bullshit and starts to throw away the makeup and clothes.
They are more than 'Spellbound', People!
I truly don't give a shit about the "goth" label, but all that nice feelgood chatter about "self-esteem" has very little bearing on how bland this song sounds.
Well put mate
*Thank you for this comment about this great song!* 💙
I don't get it, SATB have like 3 "goth albums" aesthetic wise, the rest? Not really, like, since Hyaena they wasn't as dark as before and this is just a result of a years long evolution the band had. I don't know if ppl think The Rapture came a year after Juju or wtf 😂
@@MalMotorDedo you are so right! Siouxie and the Banshees never was a goth band, as the dumb fans always like to say out loud. I even read an interview that Siouxie Sioux always liked to think about herself as a pop artist.
How many great songs can one band have. They were so underrated.
Buenisimo lo amo
They were not! It seems the last youtube trend is saying underrated to everything. They are universally considered the most influential band of the post punk period.
The band has a number of music videos, back in the days if you were not famous you'd never have money to make that amount of videos. There was no UA-cam or independent artists. The band started in the 70s. They influenced loads of other bands. They're not underrated.
They had plenty in the late 70,s and early 80,s. Sadly this is total naff..
gmcg923 Have creative freedom ? You can create timeless music. Unlike the last 15 years when it’s instantly forgotten .
It's hard to believe this album is 25 years old. Good memories.
Yes, spring 1995, my 3class medium schoole . Poland 3kl.LO
Favorite line in the lyrics : < I am in a state of weightlessness when I inhale your angel breath >
Unlike most Siouxsie fan's, I actually first got to know them threw this album. I was a music lover, in high school, but the furthest I'd gone into post-punk/goth was one Cure album. I didn't have anything to compare it to, so I listened to it with virgin ears and thought that this album was amazing. Thus started a long journey back further and further into their catalogue loving more and more as I went along. This song brings back great memories.
I met siouxsie and the banshees with this album too, I thought it was a female punk group lol, "sick child" was so good that I had to search everything about the band
Superstition is where I came in and I saw them live in 1992. It was an amazing show!
A perfect pop single with a twist in it: so un-Banshees and yet so very-Banshees because all their singles are catchy pop songs at heart
Siouxsie Sioux
is a beautiful woman and this is a great song.
I saw this tour in LA. I was 16 and waited in line for tickets overnight . My friend and I were the only ones in line ! LOL. Front row baby goths . The show was at the wiltern in LA back when it had seats .
Like this song more now than I did when it was released. Still not my favorite on Rapture... but back then I was really not into it. Aged better than I thought.
Same here,this video is cute too.
This wasn't degenerate and stupid enough to be popular in the mid 90's.
one of my favorites UK bands in the world
It's the best British band
Souxsie is one of only a handful of 80's bands that transcended that era, and sound as good today as they did then...
" Little miss sunshine " ;-)
This is one of my all time favorites!!!! I know its not the quintessential siouxie track but this always makes me happy and nostalgic
Exactly how I've always felt about this song too rebelle
How beautiful she is!
I love the meaning in this song though. Shes talking about how unfair the beauty pagents are for young girls. I mean look at how she runs away at the end and gets all pissed off that she wasnt pretty enough to get reconized! Shes amazing though
I think it goes waaaaay deeper
AHA! I see now and understand that sequence at the end when a young girl runs off down a coridoor which then cuts to Siouxsie in a tiara doing the same. 'Cinderalla girls' indeed as their sash says.Very succinctly and subtly put. She does a better job of addressing the matter than Courtney Love could ever hope to.
I hold a special place in my heart for this song… we use to listen to a very tough S&TB but this could be easily mistaken for a Cocteau Twins’ song. That’s range and I think It’s really cool
Their last couple of albums are under rated, even by their fans. This was a great single!
The cracks in the ground grin up at me
Even the creases in my shoes smile up at me

But I'm swimming around in your glory

Lie…
Listen to this song with headphones if you want the bassline to shine. Cracking!
I didn’t love this song when it was first released in 1994, but I totally dig it now. 🖤
I love 💕 it and really this is the first time I’ve ever heard anything by them! They are so amazing and so beautiful with such a unique style and grace that is a huge compliment to their lead vocalist!!! How did they escape from ever hearing them! This is amazing and I love each and every one of their songs I am listening to them all one at a time and I am blown away by each and every single song 🎶 I am listening to!!!!
This song still makes me smile. I was lucky to see her preform once.😍😍👑🙌🏼🙌🏼
It's nice to see the queen of goth as a fairy godmother.
..
Sweet
this song just makes me so damn happy
In the other side...Me, This song makes me cry 😢👏
It makes me both happy and sad
Siouxsie's Full Work (The Banshees, The Creatures, And Her Solo Work) Will Always Be My Favorite Band, The Music I Treasure The Most In My Heart. 💙
At 1:47 I believe or heard she made the melody of the whole song of her crying for her mother when she passed away. I don't know if it is really a recording of her crying but it does sound like it . That is pretty deep 😪
Seems like that, a sadly melody.
So happy I got to meet sweet Siouxsie and Budgie when they were touring The Creatures tour!! She was so sweet and warm!!
Let’s start this 2019 listening to this cool woman ^.^
When she goes oowoo oo oo I heard it's really when her crying when her mother passed oh my now that is gothic
Omg she recorded herself crying her mother's passing I love you susy
Lembro quando passava na MTV ,bons tempos,saudades dessa época!
Kids and Siouxsie glowing! Both elements are brilliant, or is element the right word? A little easy achieved brilliance with an eyelash under the nose!
Mind, My mind is wandering, Sioux is always brilliant! This is one of their very best albums!
So, I hope noone got me wrong, cause she is one my biggest influences!
@@alexiskatsogiannos7468 Same here man!
I listen to this whenever im sad
Even at their widely assumed “low” point, Siouxsie and the Banshees delivered a really interesting album, including this video, before their break-up. Their work will never be properly recognized, but I imagine Siouxsie is fine without the industry accolade.
What's so interesting though about this generic radio-friendly slop though?
@@punkpoetry for a name like punk poetry you seem to be missing the pretty dark symbolism behind this song with the video
it has a radio-friendly beat sure, but the lyrics combined with the footage of the girls and child pageants is clearly a comment on how sexualising childhood is kind of normalized through institutions like pageants hence the repetition of the word Baby to refer to a literal young person as well as its romantic/sexual connotation
@@punkpoetry there are few really good songs on this record, like the title track and the single "Stargazer". The rest is OK and honest in a good art pop album but it's just so like nothing for Siouxsie and Co. It was time to stop and it was exactly what they did. It's not bad, not at all, but it's generic.
@@punkpoetry Im with you on that 100% Poor Cure Imitate
This takes me back to my middle school years. Such a sweet little tune
A rare happy song from SATB. I wish they would have done more like this.
Siouxsie and Budgie's side project, The Creatures, had a lot more happier sounding songs.
@@LaLa-sr3sr You think so? Anima Animus sounds pretty bleak to me.
@@jerviejervie2204 Boomerang and a Bestiary Of have some pretty happy songs. Like Boomerang, Morrina, Dancing on Glass, Gecko, Strolling Wolf
@@LaLa-sr3sr Oh, I haven't heard those. I've only heard Anima Animus, Hai, and US Retrace
@@jerviejervie2204 aw those are really good. They're the best of the Creatures' albums! Definitely give them a listen, especially Boomerang!
Still listening to this in 2019
siouxsie needs to bring her talented self back.. i dont give a shit how old she is
WHAT?? This is footage of my hometown!
Flagstaff AZ represent!
That's right, we have a pink gothic style cathedral in Arizona. ♥
so sad, the last single of this queen... Love Siouxsie...!
Sadder melody but unforgettable song ❤️😍
Love her soooo much! Wow, and what a great song 😉
This is my favorite they did.
my late budgie used to love this song.
So Did Siouxsie's!
Saw them on this tour at the Wiltern Theater in Los Angeles. I can't believe it's been 26 years.
Te amo Siouxsie 🇦🇷...
I am glad that she would find herself as being a mother. I loved her songs. Why would i not love this one? In the meanwhile, I became a parent, too
I hated this song for so many years, because I couldn't accept handle the difference from their previous work, but I can appreciate it now. Siouxsie is and will always be THE Goddess!
siouxsie la banda de mi adolescencia. principalmente me cautivo por la voz de esta hermosa e increible mujer. saludos les mando de San Juan Argentina.
A quien no se hipnotiza por su voz, saludos desde Chile

I like this, and that is that!
it's very 'indie' sounding this song,nice change of direction!
This was a great song back in the mid 90's when Old Skool and this was on the radio!!!
Siouxsie & The Banshees got rhythm! I always dance to their upbeat songs! 😎
Awesome song. Been listening to it forever now😊
Do I really like this song or am I only happy to hear Siouxsie and her Banshers?
Wow that's a big change in a different way. AWESOME ENDING!.
Wacthing from SP Brazil.
So good

1995 good memories.

Siouxie & The Banshees - O Baby

Even these jewels want to kiss your crown

When this song came out I was unsure about it but now it's one of my favorites. Happy Birthday Siouxsie!!
I love how Siouxsie puts herself incongruous to a situation, it's hilarious.
