@@kalevala29 I'm guessing guitarist issues. McGeoch was great. Smith was a perfect replacement, then after that who remembers. Meanwhile The Cure were becoming a more famous band in this period.
Well, funny thing. I can't respect the people of today, the same way. At least in the same regard as those in the 80's. In the 80's we waited for a good bomb. It was time of the Cold War. It was a time to live life as if tomorrow was a surprise. It wasn't til recently that America found itself in a similar situation. It was a time and culture. The people during those times were absolutely original. And, so will it be in these times. But, the people of today don't understand joy in the same distinct way.
Mhm... not really. It's not completely bad... guitars and drums are good, and voice of course is awesome, but the winds destroy everything. The original song is so perfect that it can not be covered. Every change makes it worse. (And usually I love covers)
@@GrosserMagus Agree most covers are crap. However, the Michael Hutchence version is simply phenomenal, capturing the darkness and making you visualise the depths of depravity this song conveys. Just my tuppence worth, of course 🙂
I've heard Dave Gahan speak of Siouxsie with great reverence. This made me think about how big a fan I am of Depeche Mode, Siouxsie and the Banshees, and The Cure. I'm grateful to all of them.
Yes but the Banshees are not peers of Depeche Mode and the Cure. The Banshees are completely in their own realm looking down on them. I hate when the Cure and the Banshees are equated because the Cure SUCKS!

This is an amazing cover of what is Iggy Pop's best work. It keeps the feel of the original while still sounding like a Souixshe and the Banshees original.
@@bogdiworksV2 I heard this song first growing up, so naturally I gravitated towards this version over Iggy's. I became a fan of Iggys later in my teens and when I heard the original it seemed so different but she kept some of the original vibes. Both are excellent imho.
I don't know. I don't think this was Iggy's best work. This was Commercial Iggy. Souixshe does it justice. Iggy and The Stooges was GREAT. As well as The Idiot. I'm a Fan of both Bands for different reasons. Dum-Dum Boys was really the song I always played the Loudest through slave amps. The Banshees remind me of West End 2 at Jones Beach LI from 1977-82. WLIR played a lot of their stuff.
I'm not an accomplished guitarist by any means, only played a couplea house parties with the band I was involved with b4 we split.... never was so driven to just "get in any band and play, then move up and get into a better band, keep going until you hook up with the right people and it just WORKS...." But.... although I've always thought a band doing a cover should do something not as well known rather than a "radio hit" as a cover for one of your last songs of your set.... even though So Many bands cover this tune.... I still would've been down for doing it as well. It's simply a great catchy cool tune.
I remember seeing this on MTV's 120 minutes in 1987 when I was 16.. This and Spellbound got me into Siouxsie and the Banshees. In those days, not alot of people knew about this music. It was before 'alternative' was accepted. Good times.
@@Jellycrusher it's so surreal how some of us have the memories of them actually playing music videos. I don't even resent what it is now, just don't watch, but it sure was a much more interesting channel when it was more music oriented with a sprinkling of just all types of weird programing :)
I totally remember when VH1 and MTV had music videos, we'd switch between commercials, but they did also have shows during certain times at one point, then it just kept mutating into... Whatever it is now.
I was there...the 70s UK/US new wave/punk rock explosion, which was the last great rock N roll music explosion. I bought her 1st LP the day it came out. I have a gold mine of punk rock/new wave vinal.
And everything was made for you and me. All of it was made for you and me. Cause it just belongs to you and me. So let's take a ride and see what's mine 🤟😎
The video itself is mesmerizing. Considereing the limited video technology back then, the concept and execution and techniques used are brilliant. Fun to watch and every second fully engaging!
This was not made in the stone ages and I have no idea what you mean by "limited" except that you have a limited imagination something the Banshees certainly did not!!
I was a student DJ back in college. I'll never forget the first time I played this Gothic anthem on live broadcast...IT WAS LIBERATING. Back in those days anything goes on college radio. Although we had to "queue" our selections, which very few DJs do today (that's why most so called radio shows and their "playlists" (all programmed) SUCK.
Welcome to the fan club! I was lucky enough to be 16 when this album came out. It was my first introduction to the band and it floored me. How I lived without Siouxsie and the Banshees before that I'll never know. I became an uber-huge fan from this point on.
After checking out Nina Simone's 1971 Here comes the sun album you should have changed your mind. She is the undisputed Empress of covers. There's loads of other excellent Simone covers outside of that album too.
It brings me the nostalgia of being adult and feasting in the night with my best friends of a city I just visited and had the fun of my life with the lights at the streets and the stars in the sky. And I don't even have that feeling yet.
This is one of Sioux and The Banshees BEST covers. Their whole covers album "Through The Looking Glass" is brilliant. Such an eclectic assortment of songs. I'm quite conflicted on which I like more - this or Iggy Pop's original. Don't get me wrong, Iggy Pop's version is brilliant. But this just has the extravagant production value - with the horn section and all. The music video for this is brilliant, too. The Banshees will forever be one of my very favorites. Siouxsie is the queen! John Valentine Carruther's guitar is amazing on this cover - as is Budgie's drumming and Severin's bassline.
A good song and an excellent version. It was nice to see her smile at the end. I enjoyed the video also. Wish she would do some more gigs, she's still fit at 60.
Tengo que confesar que Siouxie es mi amor platónico, además de ser una grandísima cantante , es preciosa . Una gran banda los Banshees . Pero hasta hoy con 54 años todavía siento lo mismo que hace tantos años por esta mujer.
One of my favorite Iggy Pop songs and one of my favorite songs by the Banshees crew. Siouxsie looks so beautiful, chic and hip in this video. I love her short, boyish pixie cut and of course her signature makeup and clothing style is always dead on as is her voice
yes friend, u keep going, everyone n thing has a season, keep on enjoying u journey til it's your turn, GOD IS GOOD AND TRUST GOD AND LET GOD KNOW WHAT U WANT AND THANK HIM AFTERWARDS, CAUSE GOD WILL GET U WHERE U NEED TO BE AND RIGHT ON TIME TOO, LOVE, PEACE AND HIGH HEAVENLY BLESSINGS TO U AND YOURS ALWAYS IN ALLLLLLLL U DO ALWAYS!! PEACE FROM GREAT USA !!!
I love the relaxed mood of this video. I miss this time. A wonderful time of my life. I went to Siouxsie and The Banshees shows 30 years ago. Time went by so fast.
Yeah that’s what everybody says of that time period. I was born in the early 80s and I can say that the 90s - 00s - 10s went extremely slow, I think maybe the 80s with all the levels of subculture and excess and drugs would’ve flown past pretty quickly in comparison
Asombrosa, la amo. Siouxsie sioux una diva de la canción junto a the bandshees. Lo mejor de lo mejor. Musica de calidad que nunca pasará de moda. No me canso de escucharla y disfrutarla. 🔹🌎🔹🇨🇱🔹
Actually, Iggy Pop loves this version commenting that he wished he had thought of adding horns to his original version.
O capital Inicial canta ela em português
& PEGGY LEE!!!
Tja, wer zu spät kommt, den bestraft das Leben 😃
That’s awesome
The brass crescendo makes this magic!
This is now the definitive version!
Siouxsie and The Banshees should be in the rock n roll hall of fame!!!
love the way this lady uses her voice. Just by chance came across this track ( Serendipity perhaps) lm 81 years of age.
Peace to all ! !
The body ages Alan, the mind does not... You have great taste in music!
Glad you were able to find some new great music to listen to! Take care I hope you are doing all good.
Keep rockin' Alan!
Actually i hear this song on Dexter and i love it.
Same, was just looking up music I enjoy and this popped up, sad I just discovered this version lol
One milion covers of The Passenger, and this is the best one.
But all credits to Iggy Pop who wrote this perfect song. I am happy that good bands like Siouxie covered it.
Siouxsie and Kate Bush made the 80's magical.
Can't deny Debbie Harry tho
Indeed.
Indeed
Nina hagen too
B52's
Who's still listning to this song in 2024 ?

I do great song❤
Apparently, about 98,000 people, if you look at the views above... 🙂

You can't get more alternative than siouxie and the banshees. Still sounds fresh and crisp after all these years.
If you like her alternative or not thats all
S😅
This was actually pretty mainstream and got in the top 10. Siouxsie always had one eye on the charts.
@@darthvader822and?
@@peepapellido5609 Meaning that you can get more alternative than the Banshees, which was the assertion of the OP.
I think my favourite thing about this clip is that... they look like they have amaizing fun filming it
if you read their book, '85 and '86 were kind of rough. this album was a bit of rebirth I think and Peepshow was to follow.
yeah I was thinking they may have had a few brewskies on the set

Whats name of the Drummer................BLONDE.............
@@lindahoeymakers8898 Peter Clarke aka "Budgie". He was her husband.
As a ska and goth kid, this was the perfect song for me back in the day.
Do you like Madness ?
I miss the 80’s a lot, people back then were really very creative and also were into self expression.
I’m torn whether I miss it or not. Being a punk goth odd ball back then wasn’t easy in society like it is now. Very creative time though.

Still my favourite version of this song. The whole album was phenomenal with Siouxsie's voice
One of the best remix of the origenal Lou Reed… Or, mayby, just The best…
Sa voix est magnifique! Mais je préfère les chansons + anciennes !!!!!!!!!

This is an amazing cover of what is Iggy Pop's best work. It keeps the feel of the original while still sounding like a Souixshe and the Banshees original.
@George Corbul I love it, too, her voice really fits the gritty feel of the song. But so does Iggy's. Hard to pick one over the other.
@@bogdiworksV2 I heard this song first growing up, so naturally I gravitated towards this version over Iggy's. I became a fan of Iggys later in my teens and when I heard the original it seemed so different but she kept some of the original vibes. Both are excellent imho.

this is the original (According to google )Mike Thompson
Max Hooper Iggy Pop is the original.
Yes but Iggy is the best.

One of my favorite bands of all time. Need to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Mine 2 since 79 school days memorys
Agreed!
Rock n roll hall of fame. I agree. Love the music.
OMG yes!!! I hope they get there while we still have them around!!
Top 10.
Siouxsie is without a doubt the coolest woman ever seen in the world of music, an icon, a symbol of all gothic culture.
Несомненно то , что хуйнёй они были, ей же и остались.
Siouxsie is an hypnotic goddess ...love her voice,love her eyes !!!

Way better version.
The horns
Also there version of Dear Prudence is over the top

Always been a lifetime fan since i was 15 yrs old am now 59 yrs old.
I'm sorry but what's with the "limited video technology"? I think this was shot on film. I mean, it is awesome.

took the talent requirment out of DJ-ing
omg the memories this brings back. 1987, age 19 living in LA with my friends David and Jennifer, life was just beginning
It was a very good year...
I used to watch this hundreds of times when I first discovered the Banshees about 4-5 years ago. Had the biggest crush on Siouxsie.
It's easy to have a crush on her. She is absolutely stunning and so is her voice. All in all I prefer this version to Iggy's
4 - 5 years ago ! - what planet were you living on before that ?
John Bacon ......I wasn't born when this first came out :) I'm a child of the 90's!
wow.....i think i know siouxsie since the late 70s and she is my Queen, she influenced me a lot and was kind of idol in my youth :)

In Book One, we were Riding on a Crazy Train.
Now for Book 2, we're The Passengers.
Wait for the Book 3 and another epic song
We need Love train for book 3
Ozzy and Siouxsie together? I’m in!
Book 4 was greatttttt

What a powerful voice! Not to mention that Siouxsie's gorgeous - so beautiful in that feathered catsuit.
I have adored her since I was 12! Which is 44 years ago next Sunday! dx
My youth ❤
When I hear their music I feel young again….
Favs for life
Fun song!
Sofisticadissima na época e ainda hoje e pra sempre. E tocava o dia inteiro no rádio. Saudades
Music will never be this good again
Breathtaking. There's no one like her.
Siouxsie rocks! Their music still sounds great especially in these last 30 years or so. They are definitely one of my all time favorite bands!
This song never goes out of style
If I was a musician back in the 80s I'd have been desperate to work with this woman.

Her version of "Trust in Me" takes the snake's song of predation and turns it into seduction.
@@tikhongilson3770 Indeed!
Really great track, classic Siouxsie. Love her!!!
Totally get you there, loved them as a kid in the 80's and still do now, will always.

such a treat indeed. Seeing Siouxsie being cheeky with her pals. this is quite a gem!
Me reencontré con este tema, después de muchos años !!!
Suena excelente hoy !!!
FANTÁSTICA VERSIÓN
Always loved the banshees especially her ❤️
A good song and an excellent version. It was nice to see her smile at the end. I enjoyed the video also. Wish she would do some more gigs, she's still fit at 60.

I want a duet of them :)
I bet you love X factor.

Iggy's original is awesome, but I agree, I like Siouxie's cover even more.
Agreed. The video is very well done. First time I've seen it.
Siouxsies image is DAZZLING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You can't keep your eyes off of Her graphic persona it's vital to this glamorous psychedelia!! Love It!!!!
Cool Band, saw them at the Roxy back in the early 80's... (Happy House & Christine)...
A moment of silence for the people that haven't found this masterpiece yet 😔
😂
Estaba muerta, pero he resucitado 😊
A true magical masterpiece , i ve been listening to it repeatedly then and there for months , i cant get tired of such a beautiful song

Yeah that’s what everybody says of that time period. I was born in the early 80s and I can say that the 90s - 00s - 10s went extremely slow, I think maybe the 80s with all the levels of subculture and excess and drugs would’ve flown past pretty quickly in comparison
Excellent piece of art of the 80s.
She has such a style! Stunning! ❤️
amo demais este som!!!!
Mi grupo favorito desde hoy. Larga vida a Siouxsie
The song has been and always will be perfection.
The horns
Siouxsie Sioux had a historical look. Besides a great singer.
2016 y ésta música sigue siendo la mejor!
...absolutely gorgeous!
Been a fan of this band since the 80's.

Que bella mujer ❤️
Great track ,great voice and presence, even now in 22, others are still following her style.
Tenho um cd dos 50 melhores anos do rock, tem essa música 😍😍
Great songs never die! :)
Fenomenal 👏👏

SHE IS AMAZING!!!!
My fav track of Siouxsie & The Banshees. Unreal
Unique and beautiful ⭐️
Forever! 💋
