      @@Teknopuls3 "labels" are not a "problem". If you have a conflict with labeling the music, it's your problem. Categorize or "labeling" the styles or musical genres are part of Musical Deconstruction (part of music history). If you have the opportunity to go a music academy or simply to know the basics of music theory you will realize that...
      Differentiating between different styles of music is not difficult. Music must be distinguished and differentiated. At this point, the different genres/styles of "Dark Alternative Music" are differents and not fail into the same label..

      @@apolonyus-sun Music "must" be distinguished and differentiated"??? Why? I understand genres (country, rock, electronic, classical etc) but to get to that level of micro-categorization is enigmatic of how GenZ/Millenials approach gender identification. Yes, you can over-label and thus over-complicate a subject to a point that it devolves to people arguing about where it 'fits' over simply enjoying the music and moving on.
      Take Classical music for example...it's pretty known what to expect to hear when someone mentions Classical Music...you immediately think of Beethoven, Mozart, Hadyn, Wagner...but there is no sub-categorization of that whole genre...Why? Is it because it's "all the same" or is it just that its not as popular, and thusly, not focused on to sub-categorize? And, if so, where are the 15 different sub-categories of Classical music?
      To put so much effort into doing this with modern music...it's akin and stinks of the Indie snob claiming "I heard them first and..." at your local starbucks.

      Same here, there's not many really good cover versions in my opinion but this one isn't too bad. I know it's a Beatles song and I can see where Oasis got their inspiration for Wonderwall from. I can count on one hand how many good cover versions there has been. The Beat's version of "Tears Of A Clown", The Jam's "Move On Up" , Japan's "I Second That Emotion" and No Doubt's "It's My Life" for me are the only decent cover versions. There are some songs though that artists have covered and totally ruined but I won't go into that, needless to say that the vast majority of them are Boy Bands. Can you explain your name "We are number one but Baggy Trousers by Madness, I'm intrigued !!!

      japan is a great band dude.. my name refers to a lazy town song and how its influenced by the madness song just look up "we are number one but' and youll find a bunch of videos people make of the song but edited it random ways.. its a meme, bro

      We Are Number One But Baggy Trousers By Madness Thanks for letting me know. I'll look that up. I thought Japan were a very under rated band. Songs like Cantonese Boy, Life In Tokyo, Quiet Life,Visions Of China,European Son,Nightporter,All Tomorrow's Parties and of course Ghosts and I Second That Emotion never got the recognition they deserved. Also the album Tin Drum which is my personal favourite hasn't got a weak track on it. Not forgetting the brilliant "Forbidden Colours" David Sylvian did with Sakamoto. I still play their albums and they have definitely stood the test of time. Cheers

      I like covers when the original flabbergasts me on account of its popularity. I just don't get the original of this, it puts me to sleep. There is also a ton of songs that people say are a "ripoff" of Dear Prudence. Ripoff of what exactly.

    While I can't agree with everyone saying they prefer it to the original Beatles song, it is still probably a close second. I don't often approve of Beatles covers, but this one is fantastic. Of course, Siouxsie can do no wrong..

      I suspect they're Siouxsie fans. Nowt wrong with this version - in fact it's very good - but the original version, performed by the writers of the song, I do prefer.

    Siouxsie And The Banshees achieved the incredibly rare feat of doing a Beatles cover that is just as good as (if not better than) the original. Stunningly gorgeous. You could be Punk, Goth, and Psych at the same time and be uber cool. Robert Smith's guitar sparkles. What if Robert had broken up The Cure and stayed as a permanent Banshee? It blows the mind to speculate.

    I knew some guys that had a goth band in the 80's. They named themselves Dear Prudence after this.. They didnt like when i told them they'd picked a Beatles song for their band name.. 😅
    Also, i was shocked to see Robert Smith in this back in the day.. Even though I had read he was in the Banshees for a while.. 😊 Later on i got the live album he was on. So got used to it.. 😊

      Unfortunately, his health declined during this time, and the final straw came when he returned to London from Berlin, Germany in late May 1984, and his doctor (whom he'd last seen at age 18) was shocked at his present condition and thus said to him "Whatever it is you're doing, you'll have to stop" but Robert refused because he wanted to tour Holland with The Cure, so his doctor wrote a note to him (Robert) explaining his (Robert's) condition, that Robert in turn gave to Siouxsie & the Banshees' manager Dave Woods, which read (among other things): "This man cannot walk, let alone tour." After reading the note, Siouxsie was furious and said "How come you can do The Cure tour, but not The Banshees tour?"
      Note to Robert: you should have seen your doctor more often!
