Despite who wrote the song or how Eldritch felt about it, he makes it absolutely beautiful - I myself love the lyrics. His tone for them is perfection.
Amazing version....a fine proof that if completed and released as was planned, the "Left on Mission and Revenge" album might have probably been the best goth rock record ever.
This track was recorded after the release of First And Last And Always and just before Craig Adams, Wayne Hussey and Gary Marx left the band. It was supposed to be one of the tracks in their second upcoming album but the huge differences between Andrew Eldritch and Wayne Hussey led to the departure of the latter. Hussey re-recorded the song with The Mission but in my opinion, he didn't meet the glamor of Eldritch's deep voice nor the sound of the original version of the track.
I'm a big fan saw them in Sydney Australia not to long back they were freakin' awsome sounds fine to me I'm just happy you posted it big balls to the wall hell yeah ❤😂😂😂22/5/2023
Epic job mate! It feels so good to be able to listen to this now amongst other SoM songs and not have it hurt my ears when it comes on. Thank you so much for doing this.
I think probably too much ado was made of the Eldritch/Huessy thing. Even though the Mission was way different (Great band too, though) you can see how the underpinning or the lyrics work with eldritch's darker stylings- because Huessy has those same stylings also. I think people forget he didn't just work on their 1st album but a few 12"s. I liked the direction Andrew went in afterward- but felt kind of experimental and rudderless without his bandmates. I wish Huessy and Adams would've just kind of followed along but then Andrew probably had an ego that wouldn't allow for anything more. Great Potential is lost all the time for a lack of compromise.

You did a great job! Now I would always listen to this version becouse it definitely sounds better than the unremastered version. (And usually I don't like remastered songs at all.)
From what I’ve heard Eldrich and hussey were at nadir by this point and Andy thought Wayne’s songs were substandard so this was rejected and later heard on early mission records
One of Wayne Hussey's (several) songs for the Sisters' second album that none of the others wanted on it, leading to the whole band splitting up. Initially the split was semi-amicable, and they agreed nobody would be using the name Sisters of Mercy going forward. Then Eldritch got wind of Hussey and Adams planning to use the Sisterhood name, so immediately registered the name himself and slung together the Giving Ground single, and went on to record the album Gift (co-produced by Lucas Fox, the original drummer for Motorhead, trivia fans), scuppering the Hussey camp's plans and causing an upcoming session for the Janice Long show to be under the name The Wayne Hussey and Craig Adams Band. Mmm, catchy. Hussey of course took those songs with him and they turn up on later Mission albums. After Gift, and working on This Corrosion as a potential Sisterhood second single, Eldritch decided to hell with it, time for Sisters 2.0 and so, Floodland.
before Eldritch eventually keels over from sex, drugs and roll n roll (and cigs) I wish they would re-release a shit load of stuff including this on 180g vinyl and be done with it!
Esta pista fue grabada justo después del lanzamiento de First And Last And Always y justo antes de que Craig Adams, Wayne Hussey y Gary Marx dejaran la banda. Se suponía que iba a ser una de las pistas de su segundo próximo álbum, pero las enormes diferencias entre Andrew Eldritch y Wayne Hussey llevaron a la salida de este último. Hussey volvió a grabar la canción con The Mission, pero en mi opinión, no encontró el glamour de la voz profunda de Eldritch ni el sonido de la versión original de la pista. (google translate)
Dear Elias, this is the beginning of what I haven't been expecting for 35 years, for I only dreamt of it. The split of the 1985 Sisters'lineup is to me the most tragic event in the whole history of pop music. The premature death of Joplin Hendrix Morrison Wilson and B. Jones couldn't be more serious, for they had works done. The Sisters had only one huge album. What we here hear thank to you (and I never could dream that an Eldritch version of at least one the songs of the first Mission album, one of the two only tolerable, existed) gives us only a pale idea of what this story could have become, if the Eldritch's ego hadn't ruined it all. The afterwards career of the so-called Sisters is a complete flop, apart from 2 or 3 songs. Hussey's voice is for sure a complete disaster but as a composer he contributed to the highest wave of Sisters's creativity, to which Eldritch alone never reached afterwards. If I was a millionaire producer, I would invest everything in the come-back of the 1985 line-up. The 1985 album is a masterpiece and what Mission showed just afterwards gives us again an insight of what the whole story could have been. Infinite thanks then. Did Eldritch recorded other Mission's songs? I know he stupidly rejected Hussey's further compositions (but why? for Christ's sake; for half of the 1985 album is written by Hussey - but it seems that he equally disliked it, what allows us to think that Eldritch has just been the happy (for us) instrument of something he didn't master at all). And I must confess this version of the Garden of delight isn't good, one feels Eldritch doesn't feel at ease here. Anyway, longing to read from you, djef in brussels
@@frauleindaniela it is indeed dear Daniela. In the very beginning Hussey's band took over Sisters'name before Eldritch got into a clash and got it back. That's seemingly the reason why your bootleg is called after the Sisters - but the band playing is that of Hussey. By the way, the Mission's songs composed by Hussey were intented to be recorded with Eldritch, i. e. with the phenomenal line-up of First and last and always. But Eldritch ruined everything he touched. And Hussey's voice is quite disastrous, halas.
@@debranchistesdumondeentier2946 No, it is a proper Sisters bootleg with this version on it. 😉 And I heard the Mission version in the meantime as I finished reading Wayne Hussey’s autobiography in which he also mentions this song. I can only recommend it to you! It’s called SALAD DAZE. Partly a bit disgusting, but often very funny and always very interesting! I’m also very sad about that spilt back then but after reading the book it kind of made a bit more sense. It was like a bad marriage destined to fail. The characters involved were just too different.
I think the lyrics aren’t Eldritch lyrics….the music sounds very FALAA….I think the stuff Eldritch did on Floodland was more progressive….I can see why he rejected it
Indeed those are Wayne's lyrics which Eldritch always disliked . If you recall all the songs that Hussey wrote for FALAA kept his musical compositions but not his lyrics , Eldritch would rewrite them with his own lyrics . At some point I guess Wayne got sick of that which I kind of understand .
Its much better than The Mission's version but really just on a par with the worst bits of First and Last. Ben Gunn deserves more credit, the Sisters did all their best work when he was in the band.
Big and empty. If this line up had made a second album it would’ve been just a poor follow up to FALAA. The split was the best thing to happen for all parties. Andrew wanted to go in an experimental, electronic industrial direction and Wayne and Craig wanted to be a led Zep covers band.
Saw the mission in 86/87. Fucking hated them. Unfortunately was too young to see eldritch et al live. I sooo wish he’d stuck with what he was good at - being a goth mega god and this track had legs for that. I think he must have done a shit tonne of meth and woke up thinking he was a German dj or summit. I’m gonna go now and listen to gods own medicine slowed down to see if I can relive my youth. ( eldritch- for fuck sake grow your hair and start to actually Sing again- your voice and poetry were beautiful)
I traded tapes ( analog ) back in the late 80's with Europeans , and got a hold of this , among other recordings of SOM. Nice to see this pop up here.

It's written by Wayne Hussay it's in The Mission Children album
@@miehassan3633 no, it's in "The First chapter" and a different version in "Gods own medicine"
Amazing version....a fine proof that if completed and released as was planned, the "Left on Mission and Revenge" album might have probably been the best goth rock record ever.
So sad it didn't come true, all of them were perfect together, the Mission's version lacks something that I found in this one....
I need this on vinyl!
I still appreciate both existing versions… regardless they are brilliant! 🙏🏽🖤🔥
Thanks for the upload, I love the Mission but was never overkeen on this song but it sounds great with the Eldritch vocals!

True except Gary Marx left before the other two .
This was recorded in November 1984 while the group was still a 4-piece.
@@gaijin2465 I don't believe so , I think this was one of the tracks Hussey wrote for the follow up album .

Simplemente oscuro, la esencia del verdadero arte oscuro y la cuna de imitaciones posteriores. SOM es único en su tipo
The bassline is awesome, Craig Adams was the spirit of SOM.
Yeah but i also love the guitars duo
I genuinely appreciate the other musicians but Eldridge was / *is* the spirit of SOM.
They were perfect together 😢

Also after breakup he recorded Floodland and after that album traded singing for mumbling

can you send me a copy of this mp3 with email or something
i will try to remaster it again with ozone 7 this time and i will let you know...could you send me your email via pm so that i can send the track?
I sent it via hangouts i cant find pm button on youtube ffs :D if it really has one
@sokolataras79 can I also have the remastered version please on mp3 😁 its my favourite song ever
You can almost hear Von's cringing to Waynes lyrics.
what does it mean 'Von' ??
'Von' is a nickname of Andrew Eldritch.
Gary on it??
Gary was gone by this time
@@ShiroiTengu Nope. It's from FALAA session. He was there.

Adjust the speed, it's slow.

Its much better than The Mission's version but really just on a par with the worst bits of First and Last. Ben Gunn deserves more credit, the Sisters did all their best work when he was in the band.
The missions is quite better

Big and empty. If this line up had made a second album it would’ve been just a poor follow up to FALAA. The split was the best thing to happen for all parties. Andrew wanted to go in an experimental, electronic industrial direction and Wayne and Craig wanted to be a led Zep covers band.

I think he’d need a wig now! And the amount of speed has buggered his voice and metabolism
ｑ
You’ve lost a beautiful gothic album with this track in it
Typical horrible Hussey lyrics. I'm surprised Eldritch actually sung them. So glad the band didn't continue in this direction.
Totally agree. Big and empty as Andrew said.
horrible, tinny sound with to much treble
And a weird lisping dissonance
Serafim Severin did you eat shit?
you are horrible!
Great job! Thank you!
