As I get older I realise it doesn’t matter who has hits and who doesn’t, soft cell are in my mind one of the best , and marcs lyrics are superb , as long as I know that I’m happy , but I get what you mean ♥️
A beautiful song with a great melody that mentally puts you in this chaotic world that Marc created. The piano perfectly mimics the highs of low of his anxiety.
Sean P The album is called "Non Stop Erotic Cabaret" anyway! 😄 And I'm not agree with that, Tainted Love for me is not the best song but one of the best ones though...
Marc Almond and Dave Ball...always expressing the awfulness and yet wonder of the human condition with pure rage and yet comprehensive fabulosity. Jeez, we're privileged to have these guys.
@@marcia.escritora It actually is. Usually comes across as stern and disconnected, the little grims are a sign he's engaged somewhat haha. Deffo cracks a smile way more than vince clarke ever did.
Soft cell completely changed everyones view of pop music. Marc Almond and Dave Ball changed everything. All the shite we had put up with for the last 10 years was not acceptable anymore
That video of all the tracks off their first album i bought it i played to death timeless every clip bounced you off into another dimension and the intros to each one were fab way ahead of their time.
Looking forward to seeing Soft Cell @ St Anne's Park Dublin next Saturday support OMD Heaven 17 Soft Cell doing arguably one of the best lps of last 40 years "Non stop Exotic caberat" can't wait 😎👍
NSEC is still great after all these years.Brought the cassette in 1981 as an 18 year old & still playing it ,this time on UA-cam in 2024!🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧😆😆😘👍..Even my youngest daughter loves Youth & sex Dwarf 😂
8.26.2022 San Francisco. The performance of all songs from the most important era....that's all I needed to see. I had waited 38 years. This settled it all. Thank you Marc And David
Absolutley ground breaking music , i think loosly fashioned on Sparks . I have all of Soft cell LP's and also Tainted love on 12 inch vynyl which is quite possibly the best single ever .
I have only recently discovered all of the video evidence of Soft Cell. I grew up with these records, and all I knew was the sleeves. It should come as no surprise then that seeing Mr. Ball smiling is unnerving. If one only looks at their records sleeves, Mr. Ball always appears to be the serious one. What a fun video.
STILL A GENIUS. BEST ALBUM OF THE 80's. THE PEOPLE WHO MADE THE PET SHOP BOYS. THE PEOPLE WHO MADE SHARON OSBOURNE. THE PEOPLE THAT MADE THE 80s. THE PEOPLE THAT DEFINED THE 90's. THE ALBUMS OF SKINNY PUPPY AND SOFT CELL AND THE LYRICS INSIDE DETAIL HOW WE GOT HERE. MARILYN MANSON STILL STEALS FROM THE CROSS GENDER THIRD REICH OF SOFT CELL. MOST OF OUR TEENAGE ANGST WAS ACTUALLY IMPORTED. SKINNY PUPPY'S ASSIMILATE IS THE FIRST ANTI POLICE SONG and a POLICE MAN BOUGHT MY FIRST EMU 2 to BE LIKE SP-A CANADIAN BAND.
What an awesome artist. He was treated like shit by every form of media In the 80's. HE led the way for gay right and is solely responsible for the breakthroughs in gay rights alll the while he was the most humble and dignified person ever. 1984 Royal festival hall All those lamenting the loss of soft cell, a few years ago were in for the most awesome performance. Marc in his sequined Jacket singing You have, Jeoy demento, I will never forget that moment. And he eventually got a MBE, the same guy that the sun news paper tried to destroy. He is the only reason I feel completely flambouyant.
I just stumbled upon a Marc and the mambas tune called catch a fallen star. What completely blows me away about Marc Almond is how he has spent 30-40 Years bringing out very original music. But he also has a very loyal fan base, the likes of people who were 14 when tainted Love came out and now are over 50. When Marc sings the sun shines for me
Trying to please All these people around me Is trying to reach for the moon (The Moon) I see their faces looking so empty saying I hope that they'll finish soon (So Soon) Could be a chat show (Yap Yap Yap) Could be a go go Reaction would be the same (The Same) So here I go Though why I don't know Trying to prove myself again Entertain me I'm as blank as can be And I've seen it before And I've done it before And I think that I like it But no I don't like it It just goes on over and over And over and over and over again I try to give them all of my best And it's taking a turn for the worst (Oh No) Things going wrong Start to sing the wrong song I think that we must be cursed (You Betcha) Playing the wrong tune Hitting the wrong note This is where my nerves become frayed It's falling apart Why did we ever start And do you think we'll be paid (No No) Entertain me I'm as blank as can be And I've seen it before And I've done it before And I think that I like it But no I don't like it It just goes on over and over And over and over and over again Over and over again Build 'em up, knock 'em down (x5) I see a movement Down in the front row Maybe it's just a mistake She's smiling at me (Hello) But he's frowning at me (Goodbye) Which conclusion Do I make Fold all your arms And look straight ahead At this puppet on a string You're feeling confused But you've made a decision You don't like anything Entertain me I'm as blank as can be And I've seen it before And I've done it before And I think that I like it But no I don't like it It just goes on over and over And over and over and over again Build 'em up, knock em down (x4) Entertain me I'm as blank as can be And I've seen it before And I've done it before And I think that I like it But no I don't like it It just goes on over and over And over and over and over again
This band is criminally underrated!
Shhh…there’s no actual rating system.
The best group
As I get older I realise it doesn’t matter who has hits and who doesn’t, soft cell are in my mind one of the best , and marcs lyrics are superb , as long as I know that I’m happy , but I get what you mean ♥️
@@DJAlgorhythms so true , but sometimes you can’t help wishing more people love the people you love ,
So hare them with all your friends and turn your generation on to them and others like them.
This whole album is fantastic ..probably the most perfect album of the eighties ....Marc and Dave ..the planets aligned the day they met
Not the best of the 80's but SO SO SO FAR WAY AHEAD of everything. But some lads from Basildon were doing some nice live performances back then .. :)
Disintegration.
Yes!! I just saw Marc perform Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret last night in it's entirety front to back a couple nights ago and I'm still BUZZING!!
@@the_cutter8485 Disintegration was more like the beginning of the 90's or the death of the 80's.
@@the_cutter8485 love your name, btw... love Echo ♡ and one of the best tracks
Soft cell at their best , such a great album all killer no filler as the kids say ❤
A beautiful song with a great melody that mentally puts you in this chaotic world that Marc created. The piano perfectly mimics the highs of low of his anxiety.
Maria Puentes Yes! It's my favourite song from them, I like it more than Tainted Love then!
@@GiovanniBattistaBorrelli That's coz everything else ok Non Stop Sex Cabaret is better than Tainted Love
Sean P The album is called "Non Stop Erotic Cabaret" anyway! 😄 And I'm not agree with that, Tainted Love for me is not the best song but one of the best ones though...
This is genius level and the most weird video in the Ecstatic Dancing.
Isn't he just beautiful
Soft cell has always been a massive part of my life especially in my childhood in early 90s ❤❤
Marc Almond and Dave Ball...always expressing the awfulness and yet wonder of the human condition with pure rage and yet comprehensive fabulosity. Jeez, we're privileged to have these guys.
Fabulous,
my fav band and fav song
Love how Dave Ball just kinda throws out smiles as he looks out at the onslaught of shenanigans happening around him. Clearly he was entertained 😆
Travis Wesley okay but Dave is just the biggest mood
Dave didn’t even show this much emotion in the banned sex dwarf video it’s fun to see him smiling
It's really cute wahtching him smile
@@marcia.escritora It actually is. Usually comes across as stern and disconnected, the little grims are a sign he's engaged somewhat haha. Deffo cracks a smile way more than vince clarke ever did.
@@whatamalike Are you telling me that Vince Clarke is a human and not a replicant? Oh, my... It's really touching discovering that at 52 hahahaha
Brilliant! Dave made every song sound different, dark yet pop-y and Marc's genius lyrics
Always
this is the 80iest 80s that ever 80died!
Briliant album. I still have my original, although a bit worn.
Shame Sparks and Soft Cell never collabed, would have been amazing! Both bands iconic synth duos, this town is deffo big enough for all of them!
Back when pop was at its best, The anthems were created, and the live shows were some of the best
Absolutely. Couldn't of said it better myself.
Soft cell completely changed everyones view of pop music. Marc Almond and Dave Ball changed everything. All the shite we had put up with for the last 10 years was not acceptable anymore

Chips on my shoulder another cool tune
I still know the words to every song on this iconic album! Oh, the memories!
Me too!
And me ....a d when I play it I don't skip one track
Me too !!!
Marc and David was and also now innovative in you’re genres 🌟🌟
Looking forward to seeing Soft Cell @ St Anne's Park Dublin next Saturday support OMD Heaven 17 Soft Cell doing arguably one of the best lps of last 40 years "Non stop Exotic caberat" can't wait 😎👍
Soft Cell was a big part of my childhood....😚
My first seduction -
12 in 1982- plastic film freshly removed from my eyeballs.
Marc brought a dwarf to the party. This wont end well
Oh sh
Carrying a silver platter with a pile of coke she did not, alive still they are.
Sex dwarf??
...Isn't that nice?
NSEC is still great after all these years.Brought the cassette in 1981 as an 18 year old & still playing it ,this time on UA-cam in 2024!🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧😆😆😘👍..Even my youngest daughter loves Youth & sex Dwarf 😂
What a song!.. Can't believe hasn't been viewed that often ..
Still got this video on vhs & this is the first track.
It's like Rocky Horror mayhem. Always a fun song.
This underrated meaningful song is timeless ❤️ “It just goes on over and over again.”
2:26 Best Part
Soft Cell has truly made me realize many things about myself at only 13 thank you for everything I wish I had been alive when this album was realeased

Brilliant commentary on the whole idea of the "Entertainment Industry". Years ahead.
My fave band ever
41 years ago. bonkers

He’s so pretty!
He’s really cute to

I love the energy in this one
Fantastic track to go ballistic too in the bedroom as a kid!!
Especially love the.. Playing the wrong tune hitting the wrong note part 😂🎶
Una delle migliori canzoni del Soft Cell. E delle piu' "veritiere" direi anche...
What happened to Marc? Icon of the 80’s!
8.26.2022 San Francisco. The performance of all songs from the most important era....that's all I needed to see. I had waited 38 years. This settled it all. Thank you Marc And David
I AM ENJOYING THIS ! ! !
ME TOO !!!
so underrated😭😭🩷 love this sm
guys i love soft cell
This one is my most favorite song! 😍💕💕
I bought this album at the time and I love it!
Absolutley ground breaking music , i think loosly fashioned on Sparks . I have all of Soft cell LP's and also Tainted love on 12 inch vynyl which is quite possibly the best single ever .
This whole album is just a treat and I’m so glad my goth friends in HS introduced me to it. Glad it’s still so easy to come across.
Soft Cell And Depeche Mode Turned Me Gay. Now Me And My Boyfriend Listen To SC And DM A Lot Together. Thank You For The Music.
I listen so many years but still have no boyfriend--be happy.
I also like Pet Shop Boys, New Order, Donna Summer, Eurythmics, Duran Duran, Real Life, Cutting Crew, Berlin, etc.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The ultimate song to dress up in garish makeup, a cocktail in hand and dance and drama in a mirror. Dammit this is good.
Had this music video on laserdisc back in the day lol. Got 80s was a great time for tech and music.
Dave’s smiling!!!!
Acquistato il vinile nel 1981 !!!!💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💟💟💟💟👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Love Love love this.. Amazing Duo... ♥️🌻
What a Creator Marc and Dave were, nothing close to them in 2020
Soft Cell …
最高です♪

One of the BEST 80's bands.
Love this song !!!
I can relate to their every song.
Still listening & im 60!😆
Watching again
Que j'adore ! 0:13
This whole album is about the youth of 2000’s. It’s rough being young no matter the decade.
Dave Ball is such a cutie.
❤❤❤
Just great!
I so love this tune and video,madness!!
Youth❤
I thought tainted love was there only major hit song. Until a few years ago. Silly me hey...???
Now I know differently. Well ✔️ done... sc boys. ❤
This video is wonderful
Favourite all time song thanks guys
Easily my second fav after Tainted Love
So underrated
Absolutely individual music! But "Tainted Love" is a cover!

Sotf Cell n Tears For Fears best Duo's of the 80s bothi dark in different ways 😢😊

First time I have seen dave ball smiling
Drugs are a hell of a drug. ❤️♥️
Fantastica 💖
THE BOYS AT THEIR BEST
A danger noodle!

Brilliant!
I have this on vinyl
Great track 😎👍🏻

I'm easily entertained
What an awesome artist. He was treated like shit by every form of media In the 80's. HE led the way for gay right and is solely responsible for the breakthroughs in gay rights alll the while he was the most humble and dignified person ever.
1984
Royal festival hall
All those lamenting the loss of soft cell, a few years ago were in for the most awesome performance. Marc in his sequined Jacket singing You have, Jeoy demento, I will never forget that moment. And he eventually got a MBE, the same guy that the sun news paper tried to destroy. He is the only reason I feel completely flambouyant.
I just stumbled upon a Marc and the mambas tune called catch a fallen star. What completely blows me away about Marc Almond is how he has spent 30-40 Years bringing out very original music. But he also has a very loyal fan base, the likes of people who were 14 when tainted Love came out and now are over 50. When Marc sings the sun shines for me
Actually he got an OBE, which trumps a MBE ! 🥇
Yessss!!! Thank you for this wonderful surprise today!! :D it has been really entertaining ^^ :)
Yeah
Still love it in 2021
Non stop erotic cabaret is in my top twenty albums of all time 😊
We need a gig in southport mark
I 💜it
Marvelously wierd and fantasticly abnormal.
En el 2017 lo escuche x 1era vez en un dvd de new wave y electropop , de tiempos vuelvo a encontrar esta nota
Saludos desde lima - peru
Nobody:
Soft Cell: “EnTErTAiN mE.”
It’s a great song
He we are now entertain us
Omg i totally remember this song!!! But cant remember where i first heard this🤣🤣🤣🤣
Who are the two backing vocals girls ?
Cindy Ecstasy and Josephine Warden ?
❤❤❤❤❤❤😂
El vídeo de esta canción y la canción la utilizaron como promocional del disco non stop erotic cabaret
I worked with Baba , at the zoo bar in Bognor....She 's the fire eater near the beginning . Gerry Cottles Circus ?????
Marc almond is so hot.
Trying to please
All these people around me
Is trying to reach for the moon
(The Moon)
I see their faces looking so empty saying
I hope that they'll finish soon
(So Soon)
Could be a chat show
(Yap Yap Yap)
Could be a go go
Reaction would be the same
(The Same)
So here I go
Though why I don't know
Trying to prove myself again
Entertain me
I'm as blank as can be
And I've seen it before
And I've done it before
And I think that I like it
But no I don't like it
It just goes on over and over
And over and over and over again
I try to give them all of my best
And it's taking a turn for the worst
(Oh No)
Things going wrong
Start to sing the wrong song
I think that we must be cursed
(You Betcha)
Playing the wrong tune
Hitting the wrong note
This is where my nerves become frayed
It's falling apart
Why did we ever start
And do you think we'll be paid
(No No)
Entertain me
I'm as blank as can be
And I've seen it before
And I've done it before
And I think that I like it
But no I don't like it
It just goes on over and over
And over and over and over again
Over and over again
Build 'em up, knock 'em down (x5)
I see a movement
Down in the front row
Maybe it's just a mistake
She's smiling at me
(Hello)
But he's frowning at me
(Goodbye)
Which conclusion
Do I make
Fold all your arms
And look straight ahead
At this puppet on a string
You're feeling confused
But you've made a decision
You don't like anything
Entertain me
I'm as blank as can be
And I've seen it before
And I've done it before
And I think that I like it
But no I don't like it
It just goes on over and over
And over and over and over again
Build 'em up, knock em down (x4)
Entertain me
I'm as blank as can be
And I've seen it before
And I've done it before
And I think that I like it
But no I don't like it
It just goes on over and over
And over and over and over again
Wish R2-D2 and C-3PO were in this!
