Some people think this is two different worlds but for me it's all the same...growing up in the neighborhood but having that gothic dark attitude inside. Makes all the sense in the world to me. Love it!
I grew up in Southern California during the late 80s-early 90s. I would go to these little local shows and just stare at the beautiful Hispanic Goth community. They are like the living embodiment of art, Im 42 and I still swoon in amazement by the aesthetic, music and spirit.
I'm a 59 year old punk rock geezer. I like Goth and Witch Hose, weird huh? And I LIKE this guy! He's got attitude and a great sound! Hope you go far Prayers!
The youth has taken the step much higher in the 80s music and techno wash it much harder music which sounds awesome and great , keep it strong for the minds who love to challenge great sounds instead of violence.
I keep finding my favorite...I think this one is my ultimate favorite. Production, music video...When you casually run into your goth friends in a music video x) Ashlee Swan! That groovy, heavy bassline is dope. Diggin that psychedelic rock / 80s synth pop voice with the darkwave feels
PSB fan all my life, 300+ disks in my collection and I like the fact PRAYERS have not done a straight cover of 'west end girls', to me its a completely different track with a little inspiration from PSB. I can imagine playing this loud whilst driving.
I absolutely LOVE IT!!! I grew up a gangster from Albuquerque, New Mexico but have ALWAYS been into the “Gothic & Dark” scene, hence why I have such a unique “street name.” Rap & Rock & Roll are DOPE AF especially when done together! I have loved the darker bands such as Morbid Angel, GWAR, Ozzy Osbourne, HIM, Aiden (especially William Control).......this is the best of both worlds put together!!!! Keep doing yo thang Leafar Sayer!!!! Amore carnale from that Duke City Burque 505 Nuevo Mexico!!!! 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊

lol. I know the original since i was a kid and I like Prayers version all the way around. If you guys hated it so much just go and listen to the original one and leave this one here. Even the PSB guys liked it...
At first I was confused . Mind u I don't know nything about prayers just clicked on the vid. But understood what the reference was to and I like the vid. Its 2015 I don't think everything should make complete sense to everyone. Its kinda like "take it how u want to take it"... the vid is unusual in a cool way cause its 2 diff world ur not used to seeing together.
Fuck, I wish I was still in CALI, I'm. White boy covered in ink but whenever I went to Sherman (I'm from Highland Park --The Avenues), it was love, if you show respect you get it back. Plus I was NEVER a gang banger, I am down w all types of ppl. But, PRAYERS, your doing your thing man. RESPECT!

I like it. Carries it's message with very little words used. It conveys a very nice atmosphere and it's pretty good at explaining their feelings and situation.
Never seen a sad cholo before, this is like an episode of MS13 reasons why! 🤣 Kill Tony skankfest episode October 2022 joke made me remember this lovely band! TB on drums in young gods was dope af. 🖤
***** what does this have to do with the industry? this is a small independent duo who are just covering a classic. the pet shop boys (who i am a big fan of) did a few covers too. are they unoriginal?
Well done Prayers. It is a gothic tribute in recognition of a duo that has influenced so many genres of music: The Pet Shop Boys. As an art piece, you have made it your own. To have a tight community of friends like that to believe in your music and art, I applaud you all. San Diego is my second home and I hope to hear you live someday.
I like how quick everyone is to judge this great homage to the Pet Shop Boy's original. Do a little research and you will find out the lead grew up listing to them and many other new wave type music. Whats even funnier is the pet shop boys loved these guys so much they got them to make a music video for their 20 something track. I couldn't care less about what anybody really thinks but you got to ask yourself, are you wrong or are the Pet Shop Boys wrong? But then again everybody is entitled to their opinion.
The Pet Shop Boys are wrong. Lou Reed said he liked it when Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch sampled "Walk on the Wild SIde" for "Wildside." No one remembers that pile of shit all these years later, and no one will remember this. People do remember Marky Mark, however. And I'd rather listen to that garbage than this piss take.
@ Kona jinx, ha you did not just mention Marky Mall 's lame attempt at trying to ride on the coat tails of that vanilla kid. Thanks i needed that laugh.
Couldn't care how much someone listened to The Pet Shop Boys, this is crap. I don't understand why it exists, it doesn't sound anything like West End Girls
This video is like a backyard rockabilly punk show with 1 random metal band in Compton or East LA. I think someone's primo just tried to charge me 3 extra dollars to get in and then Tried to sell me a NOS balloon in the comments section while a group of girls asked me if I was old enough to go to the liquor store and hook it up with some alchohol..by tomorrow morning I expect to walk outside and find a random stranger crashed out in the back of my car Still drunk and asking where the girl/guy they got into the back seat with went..I'm not even trippen though. Still have 2 bottles of md50/50 and a roach I stashed, and i didn't get jacked or in a fight so it was a good night
Your sound is Fucken dope! U changed the way I see music. And life . I can relate to a lot this music is a BIG out let for me!..keep making good music fuck haters!! Hopeful I will be at "Gothic on the beach!!
Peytonsbeard My bum is on the West End. My East End bum is on the lonely Swedish West End. Come and take a look at the west end of my East Bum, as I touch you with its west end - yeah! Looooonssssss........
+Gabriel Rodrigues People have the right to express their valid views and opinions on this worthless turd calling itself a "song". Don't want to hear or read about them? Then stay off the internet and go live in a cave instead.
While I appreciate the aesthetic & goth nature of the video,the music is... A little... I don't know. The vocals are very whiney,and the instrumental sounds like it was made on a cheap toy keyboard. But ay. I hope someone enjoys it. I appreciate the originality. Love the way the video was shot.
Rene Perez I have a homie who produces out of his extra bedroom in his 2 bedroom house that makes better sounding music. Don't make excuses for these guys.
Comments,comments,comments, criticism,criticism, criticism, ......that's all it is here. But honest truth, is no one will ever accept the fact that we are not all born the same, and are not created to like the same music. So if you can't acknowledge that a boy grew up liking something like the pet shop boys,and got caught up living the life of a Cholo, and are now trying to deny acceptance of a now grown man,trying to express his life and passion with others....then shut the fuck up! Yeah,their music is simple,but raw as fuck, as well as their lyrics, but it has existence in their writing. Which is why PRAYERS are rising to the top. So haters will keep hating, and PRAYERS fans will keep loving their journey!👊
I used to play in this cemetery as a kid, I remember one year after a posada a friend and I snuck into this cemetery to drink a beer, must have been eleven. As we hid behind a crypt we saw this ghostly figure floating a few yards away, I couldn’t believe my eyes, still can’t explain it.
Some people think this is two different worlds but for me it's all the same...growing up in the neighborhood but having that gothic dark attitude inside. Makes all the sense in the world to me. Love it!
"Ey so are you like a rocker-foo?"
Lmao
Si mon!
Lmfao every Hispanic kid from LA be like 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Accurate

Rock n rollero! Greetings from Mexico

Awesome
Took me 6 years to find Prayers. WTF? Brilliant artists!
im just now finding this. and i love it
i have to admit! he has a good voice. this whole merge of two subcultures reminds me of me growing up as a punk in a barrio in el paso tx.
I’m from Southern California and most of the Punks, metal heads, goths are Mexican or of some Chicano decent
L.A. punk scene back in the mid and late 80s was almost 50% Mexican (in my experience).
Hell yea,Hispanics always been into metal.
Im one of those Mexican "emo teens"
Yep!!!
hell yes! im from San Bernardino! I.E.
That splt second of footage at 2:30 with the hot gothic chola slow motion moving the cuete is cinematic gold for me
The youth has taken the step much higher in the 80s music and techno wash it much harder music which sounds awesome and great , keep it strong for the minds who love to challenge great sounds instead of violence.

I grew up in southside Long Beach, 61 and still rockin! This band is amazing
I've seen these stickers around
Logan Hights I never expected this I love it ! It's like the Cure had a baster Chicano kid in the 619
Good call. His voice reminded me of early Robert Smith/Cure. Like A Forest/Killing an Arab era.

Is not it the same song? '

So bitter!
I heard his voice and thought this is so fucking punk!
lol. I know the original since i was a kid and I like Prayers version all the way around. If you guys hated it so much just go and listen to the original one and leave this one here. Even the PSB guys liked it...
got no history, got no past. those words hit hard
diamond dogs . only one person could have pulled this off . love you rafa
This is awesome, and somebody I know is in this video

Loving this, wouldve thought he was from the UK if i didnt see the video, Chicano Goth is a new genre and im digging it 🖤
solid track! love both original and this.
*LETRA*
Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes
You're better off dead
There's a gun in your hand
And it's pointed at your head
Sometimes
Sometimes
You think you're mad, too unstable
Kicking in chairs, knocking down tables
In a restaurant, in a west end town
Call the police, there's a madman around
Underground, in a west end town
East end boys, west end girls (3x)
Too many shadows, whispering voices
Faces on posters, too many choices
Too many choices
In a west end town, a dead end world
The east end boys, and the west end girls
East end boys, west end girls (2x)
Got a heart of glass, a heart of stone
Just you wait until I take you home
Until I take you home
We've got no future, got no past
Here today, built to last
Here today
Built to last
In a west end town, a dead end world
The east end boys, and the west end girls
East end boys, west end girls (4x)
I like it. Carries it's message with very little words used. It conveys a very nice atmosphere and it's pretty good at explaining their feelings and situation.
I like the background music; captures and amplifies the power of the original, and love the video, but vocals? Oh God...
I dig it. New wave music getting recognition from new groups is cool. Like Deftones did doing a cover of Duran Duran's "the Chauffeur".
Never seen a sad cholo before, this is like an episode of MS13 reasons why! 🤣
Kill Tony skankfest episode October 2022 joke made me remember this lovely band! TB on drums in young gods was dope af. 🖤
I love the original & I think this cover is quite good. Badass video
This my new shit 💕
I had a stroke listening to your song
Love this song everyday!! Like 5 times or more!!
I love prayers for doing this noisey never dissapoints
This just makes me want to listen to the vastly superior original version.
A Witty Username pet shop boys all the way
A Witty Username ya this is SUPER SAD, another example of the music industry failing to remain unique.
A great example of TTH.... Trying Too Hard.
***** what does this have to do with the industry? this is a small independent duo who are just covering a classic. the pet shop boys (who i am a big fan of) did a few covers too. are they unoriginal?
Kkidzz pls explain
love the music
A cover woo. I suck for not getting here earlier! Spotify came through for me finally. These guys crush it! Come to NY.
I Dig I Dig,....Much love from The Central Coast Monterey County
What a fucking nice cool version of the amazing West End Girls of the Pet Shop Boys and fabulous video !

First time hearing this group like it alot.

Yeahhhhhhhh, my profile pic shows my level of enjoyment while listening to this. I will now watch the Pet Shop Boys and try and forget this exists
I fucking dig Prayers this movement has been a long time coming. I love it.🖤🖤🖤
Well this is pretty damn fresh
This video is like a backyard rockabilly punk show with 1 random metal band in Compton or East LA.

Yes. It doesn't include this worthless turd of a track.

I agree. They are more style than substance.

What you need to understand is that music goes through growing pains. This could be the precurser to a much bigger genre of music.
