Just like 1993
This is criminally not played enough on the 80s stations. One of the best songs of the 80s.
Or the best song ever
I'm glad it isn't. They would play it to death
I hear it on different channels on Sirius XM.
I hear it a lot on channel 28, The Spectrum.
pandora puts it in every 80s playlist that includes new order, book of love or lightning seeds.
@@TheNawlinzNative haven’t heard the Lightning Seeds in ages. I have one of their cds somewhere. I have a Nik Kershaw Pandora station that plays a lot of New Order but not sure I’ve heard this particular Peter Murphy song on it.
I'm 53, love 80's music, and just found this GEM in April of 2024! LOVE IT, THANKS!
It's never to late to discover this amazing artist enjoy his works I'm a forever fan been listening from the beginning
"You pour yourself over me like the sun through the blinds". Fuck me, that is some gorgeous writing right there.
It's Bauhaus
Fucking is exactly what the artist had in mind. #missionaccomplished
I agree
This melody surrounds me. Cuts you up. Oh ohhh oooohhh.
What part of herself is pouring?
His haunting song makes me cry, why? I am 76 and love alt rock, but this is awesome and lyrics amazing.
❤💜
That’s so cool. I’ve always loved this song. 😘👍🏻✌️🦋☮️

My family is dysfunctional. One day it was different, I was sitting with my parents and casually chatting, we were laughing, everything seemed "normal". We decided to play a music channel on the TV and while I was looking for some music I came across this song and video, I immediately liked it and turned on Shazam to find it. This song now and always will remind me of that day when it seemed like we were a normal family, a day when there was no yelling and no fighting.
"Hold the secret close I hear you say"
Damn. I’m sorry. 🤗
I miss 80s singers who sang in a dead serious tone in the woods or the moon light and didn’t need to explain a damn thing to anyone!
I miss singers who could sing, who could make a note, who could carry a tune, who could engage the audience...you know, musicians.
And didn’t need to explain a damn thing to anyone! Ditto
Every person who likes this song loves it.
Right on sister!
Peter Murphy reminds me so much of the character, "Hydom Gimleh" in the Japanese Anime - "Space Battleship Yamato"
Anyway great great Music Video.
This is the kind of song that never gets old. I've been listening to it for about 30 years and it hasn't aged a bit.
Me too I'm 46 been listening to this since I was 16
me too,we know good music.leonard
Definitely. Smooth & rockin' for sure.
Saw him in a dive venue in Dallas in '92. Fantastic performer.
And you haven't either, sir!
We all still young at ❤
I was obsessed with this when it came out. I was a depressed teenager and it was very comforting. Still sounds fresh in 2022 and still is comforting
I hope you are feeling better nowadays 🌟 although the last few years have been tough…
Me too😉
This song got me through nursing school
Peter Murphy is one of the planet’s best musicians and his songs are eternal. He is a genius.
Yup....epic song for them years.
April 15, 2024. Fan since the 1980s.

David Bowie after getting bit by a vampire = Peter Murphy
🤣🤣🖤
David Bowie already got bit by a vampire. It’s called THE HUNGER.
After being on the set of The Hunger with Catherine Deneuve
😂😂😂😂😂. I'm basically totally in love with him. I remember this from when I was a teen just found him and immediately recognized it. So I'm basically in love again.❤️.
Peter Murphy is a vampire singer?
They FINALLY playing this on San Diego radio stations. The people have spoken 🎉
Really?!? Which San Diego stations (I'm in San Diego) --- if they are just now playing this - they are a little late to the party! 😉
It was too risky, too intense, to challenging for the commercial radio monied interest to play back in the day. Now it is a safe choice, a commercial win. Underground artists forever.
91x??
@@FlugPoP Yes!!! 91X ... 🤩
🎉❤
This song is timeless, I never get sick of it even 30 years later. All Night Long too.
i was just thinking that as i watched, stoned and drunk out of my brain. but it's just so good, even to someone like me who likes new music. this is just tops, shame it's not up there in the pop echelons. but that goes for a number of his songs, especially the heartbreaking madeline dietrich song, that song is a tear jerker
@@jimmythebold589 stoned and Peter Murphy go hand in hand❤
The song Crazy by Seal
@@georgeredhawk1996Absolutely!
Good times and sad memories
For some odd reason, this song feels like a late night deep talk with a friend about the weird reality of existing
I think that's why I like it. My kind of scene.
Look up the meaning and origin of the word, "saudade"
This was the after-party music...' Reflection!'
excellent description
Lchaim from Jerusalem. Schlama means peace. Malkuth means heaven. Hubba means love. Hubba to you.
Peter Murphy has 1of the most distinctive, fascinating and original singing voices I've ever heard.
Sounds like Bowie, don't you thing?
@@09rgsNo.
@@09rgs In it's own way yes..... Like a flat Bowie, in a good way =)
Sounds like Iggy
Pure Art!!!
Saw Peter perform this and most of the album live 1989. My hands on the stage at his feet. Powerful performance. The opening act was Nine Inch Nails. Still one of the most epic shows I’ve ever seen.
OMG that sounds like the greatest show EVER!
Yes!! Saw him on this tour too… then saw him again in 2019- 30 years later. His voice is still hauntingly beautiful…
Crazy show wow.
Lucky devil!
Still loving this one in 2023...His voice is hauntingly beautiful in this song..
Hi......😂🎉😢😮😅...twist away....good might
Was thrilled when I met Peter in the late 80s when I worked at a local radio station. He's very slight man, I was taken aback - they always look larger than life on TV/on screen! Very soft, deep voice, not showy at all. Just showed up at the station all alone, no entourage or anything. Made me love him even more! I was never a huge Bauhaus fan, but I do remember listening to his CDs from around that time over and over, great memories.
Where is he now?
A guy in my USMC barracks bought this album when it came out, hated it and tossed it in the trash. I picked it out and listened for the hell of it, just one listen. Still one of my go-to albums to date and, I think his best.
Great story about the album thrown out and picked out of can to become the go too album 💿
Ones man's trash really is another man's treasure, that's lovely
Especially Seven Veils
Wow cool man . Did you happen to go to the blue crystal in the late 80s early 90s because we always played this . I bartended there for three years . My real name is Gary
@@johntrujillo2486 where were you stationed when this happened?? I was a navy Sea Bee 🐝 deployed to Sicily in 1990 where the Italian dock radio station played it. It was awesome and always takes me back to a more simpler time….
I will never ever understand,why this was not a great Hit back then.
Everything is perfect, the Sound,the Song, the athmosfere...a Masterpiece of dark romantic an melancholia.
Because it was ahead of its time
There were too many hits
I heard on the radio a lot back when it came out. Loved this song.
back in the 80s there was a lot of music talent..even pop music was real good....
It played on KROQ (LA station) on regular rotation back in the day. Loved it.
Just an observation, but many of the videos from this era, to me anyway, show that the director cared about their craft and put some effort into their work.
videos were like journeys. it's what makes the 80s stuff really interesting looking back now
It was about the song: music, lyrics, not half naked women twerking or metrosexual men
Especially since the budgets were like 50 bucks
The most impressive part is that there was no digital editing then. No such thing as layers of video elements on a computer. Each layer was composited using analog equipment and hundreds of hours of focus and dedication. Lots of cool stuff could be done with green screens and multiple video players feeding into a mixing console, but the high quality equipment was crazy expensive and required studio space to accommodate all of it. Now people can do all this in their phones. Crazy world.
Call me old-fashioned if you will, but these videos are more satisfying than their modern counterparts. Somehow, a hooker feigning lesbian sex just doesn't have the same charm.
I still think Peter Murphy's greatest achievement is getting an entire subculture to obsess over his cheekbones
Jodie Ella yep.
lol yep
You too can have those cheekbones - they're just an amphetamine habit away!
@@teresa27909 I realise my comment comes across as quite flippant, but Pete Murphy has always been quite open about his drug use. Both the positive aspects from a creative point of view as well as the negative health consequences that were a big part in Bauhaus splitting up first time around.
@@chriswareham Okay well thank you for your "explanation".
2023 and this song still gives me chills in the best way! 💕🎻🎶
Discovered this brilliant man in June of 2023! His voice haunts my soul………cannot get enough!❤
This cd helped me through Desert Storm while on an aircraft carrier - thank you, Peter!

@Oskar Dirlewanger stop being an ass
you lucky squid you, I had the Cure's Standing on a Beach on casette, my crewmates seemed to enjoy it, especially the first track, "Killing an Arab"
All the Bowie comparisons, Peter was and is great all on his own, the end
Bowie is a clown.
The last thing I thought about the first time I heard Peter Murphy was David Bowie, ironically. All those tracks on the 'Deep' album.... didn't sound like Bowie at all.
This!
Bowie was CIA trash from Day 1. He can go rot in hell (if indeed he's even dead). Murphy was the real deal. Didn't need to be an agent provocateur. Didn't need to make anti-White comments. Didn't need to complain about what networks weren't airing what to get his tuneless caterwauling crap onto the charts. Peter only needed to let his music speak for itself.
he doesnt look like him but idk he reminds me of him
I used to have this on cassette back in the day. I drove around with this song on a loop. Great times. Lol
We are already in 2024 and we are listening it !!! ❤
This song is such a timeless haunting beauty ... A real treasure indeed.
96 Wave.
Not sure if Eddie Branch is playing that fretless bass with a violin bow on the actual recording but to me that is the sound that gives this song something extra special.
There he is, the Grandfather of Goth.
So, who's the father?
@@anandakrishnaliladevidasi6289 Not sure, but my vote would go to either Ian Astbury, Ian McCulloch or Robert Smith.
Wait. Grandfather? No way. He’s 1980’s not 1880’s lol. Don’t make us original fans ancient yet.
Grandmother of goth = Siouxsie Sioux
"Grand-father" really? Kinder-goth's, just don't get it ... If we were invaded by aliens and they said, "take us to your leader", I'd direct them to Peter Murphy. He'd use his Goth-coolness and charming personality --- they would surrender themselves to Earth.
Zero auto tune.....amazing talent
he is a great singer. The Bauhaus were awesome. His solo stuff is good too
I just heard this song today. Where has this song been my whole life? I’m 38 and this is my favorite kind of music, It’s been on repeat for hours now.
How did you find it?
Welcome😊
@@ARTSIEBECCA Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day. Stay Safe!
@@giulianoocchiucci7546I was driving and had pandora or serious radio I think and as soon as I heard it it I ask my phone who is this.
The 80s is the gift that just keeps on giving. Almost 40yrs on and still unearthing godly gems!
@kkh369 same thing
You are absolutely correct 🔥
Fuck yeah
Nbb
Every decades artists record something timeless. Just listen.
Whend I was teenager in 2007-2010 and whend I got alone at night I used to turn all the lights off and listen Peter Murphy in pitch black dark while staring the moon trough the window .I was really edge and somewhat cringe . But man I miss that sensation .
I prefer to listen to all music in the dark.
Dude, I did this too. This is the only type of music to do this with.
From his 1989 album Deep, released in 1990. God I miss the 80's and 90's eras, best times of my life and the best music.
Peter Murphy. The Quintessential Goth Rock God. A Prince of Goth. Always criminally underrated.
peter murphy has inspired many young people to let themselves feel their feelings
Kistain u figured it. Women are they have aways. ( the movie) beeeeeen the stength. Thanku
💯
There are comments here that are so poetic it's making me cry.
I feel this^^
2021 anyone?? 🥰🥰
yep :D
2020 and forever. Fantastic song and video.
Me. Brasil. 23 Jan 2020
I’m loving it every year! Today’s popular music lacks the substance of what music just like this delivers...
62 thumbs up in a week gives me hope for humanity
Only recently discovered Bauhaus, now I find out there's incredible solo Peter Murphy songs too!
Check out Love and Rockets too! Bauhaus members.....
@@rachelrisley8560 Thanks! I will, didn't know they had albums too
There’s also Tones on Tail, which was Daniel Ash, Kevin Haskins, and a Bauhaus roommate/roadie.
Still cuts me up in 2020! Peter Murphy is still great.
It’s 2020!? 😳🤯🤦🏻♀️🙊
And in 2021
Still cuts me up in 2023
Still cutting me up in 2024! I graduated high school in 1987. These songs define the soundtrack of my life. What a magical time in music history.
"You pour yourself over me, like the sun through the blinds" love that line
A timeless rock masterpiece. How I love this epic Bowiesque song. Peter Murphy at his best. And this video is still awesome, pure beauty and sadness, clearly inspired by Ladyhawke movie
It's giving me Jareth vibes.
Very underrated artist
What a beautiful haunting lovely wonderful song, Makes me weep when I hear it.
I felt the same when I was a child. I would cry too
Same here.
Me too! I play this when life is difficult and sometimes cry. It's comforting just to embrace that I'm feeling sad in the moment.
This song is played EVERY Friday night in Pittsburgh at Jaggerbush for Alternative 80s night. Awesome song. My girlfriend and I dance to it all the time.
Walter S. Hutsky Jr. Cool!
Still live in Pittsburgh Mt Washington went to school with Jimmy vogels sister. Who used to own Jagger bush
This song and Fall With Your Knife is a great song by him to dance to.
Yet another good reason for me to visit Pittsburgh! Someday 💿🍀
do they have a link for on line listening
Anyone else love how the main melody immediately pops off?
It's one of the all time great pop hooks. Drum downbeat and wham! You're hooked.
I am officially addicted to this song now. My GOD it's pure beauty in every way.
If you're looking for the lost sound that bridges the gap between 80's new wave and 90's alternative and grunge then this definitely fits the bill.
I thought the same thing. 80s,early 90s beat, same harmony notes in the chorus that Alice in Chains used.
What a great way to put it. I thought the same thing. I can hear Eddie Vedder in this song.
Definitely hear Stone Temple Pilots in the chorus.
Peter Murphy is The Goth King. There's no point in arguing this fact.
O.P.F. So damn true he's the best goth singer ever. I also think the UK Goth is a thousands way better then the US Goth. This is real goth music. Not shock value.
He is the goth father.
No he is a Goth father Reznor is obviously the fucking Goth King
@@vaughanhoward5951 NIN is watered down industrial at best, NOT goth , get a clue
You're joking right? @@vaughanhoward5951
I went to see Peter Murphy with a friend having never heard of him. I was mesmerized,
I became an instant fan. No one is as powerful as Peter Murphy.

I have heard this song many times in my life. It just dawned on me while watching this video that this song might be about drug addiction: highs and lows, etc.
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day. Stay Safe
Peter Murphy running through the woods....in a cape....possibly the hottest thing ever
Couldn't agree more
Does anyone notice that all the bands from the 1980s are so incredibly unique? No one can compare... siouxsie and the banshees, the cure, psychedelic furs, new order, scritti poliitti, Peter Murphy/Bauhaus, just too many creative bands. What happened in the 2020s?
There is actually a revival in goth music going on now, my friend, and in synth pop. I was unaware of a lot of these bands until I recently, by pure luck and chance, saw Twin Tribes play in San Antonio. They are dark and melodic, with hypnotic synth and amazing lyrics, and some haunting lead vocals
@@crystalmobley2285 That sounds super cool! I love that stuff...
1990.
@@scandinavianheinz5725 I saw Twin Tribes in Brooklyn with Boy Harsher, if you like heavy goth/darkwave cant reccomended these enough.
Also you didn't mention Field of the Nephilim...
The more I watch this, the more I realize this is stylistically actually one of the most beautiful music videos ever made. Whatever the hell Peter Murphy is talking about is clearly very personal and introspective, and the video shows that.
its about a wave
@@eeskeeverit8754 middle finger.
The thing I love about this song is that it has that gothicness you are used to from Peter Murphy but has this uplifting feeling during the chorus like yer flying above the trees
Peter Murphy's voice is amazing on this track. Actually the whole album his voice is amazing . I heard a acoustic version of this song and again Peter's voice amazing. True artist and great writer! Smart!
I never tire of this song.

Wow!! Beautiful song and video. Thank you for sharing.
Heard this on the radio late one night driving east out of Denver on a deserted I-70, under a brilliant prairie moon. Just surreal.
That violin player is amazing though!
Funny story about that. While the viola appears on the live and acoustic performances it did not sound right to Peter when it was recorded, so they went with a synth for the album.
@@Willnobilis Wow
Was gonna say the tuning is upper cello lower viola. No way violin.
@@shawnbottom4769 Thanks for teaching me.
I play the violin shirtless all the time it's no big deal.
I an old man now but this song makes me feel young again,,love the 80s
The 80's were the best hands down. What I'd give to go back....
If these aren't some of the most beautiful, evocative lyrics ever written and sung, I'll eat my hat.
"I find you in the morning
After dreams of distant signs
You pour yourself over me
Like the sun through the blinds
You lift me up
And get me out
Keep me walking
But never shout
Hold the secret close
I hear you say.
You know the way..."
The art...the voice...the dance....the era I miss so much.
Listen to the LYRICS. They don’t make em like this anymore. There are no more Peter Murphys in this world. I was 16. I’m so glad I was old enough to get it. Generation X.
gen z better tho
@@sociopaxhidk738 Sorry Gen Z, justvin case you go there, the early 90S also belongs to Gen X , you can have the late 90s.
Leonardo Carretero idc about that. our gen is better than X
@@sociopaxhidk738 thats the problem with gen Z, you think you know it all, without a cell phobe you're lost. trust me you're not the best Gen.

In1990 when I was 18 and first on my own .This song was my anthem of how much I felt at that time. I felt free and had my whole life ahead of me. I wish I could go back to that time.
Same but at 21 in 1990. Before kids etc...😊
Tinha 20 e começando uma nova caminhada.

It does not matter how many years pass or how many times (thousands) I have heard this...it still gives me chills and moves me like I am hearing it for the first time. That voice, that man. LOVE.

I’m in my 20s and had a drug overdose last year. Been addicted to drugs ever since I was tormented by bullies in high school. Now I’m being tormented by this toxic lifestyle, but I’m truly fighting it now. This song is helping me fight through the terrible withdrawals. It’s as if Peter Murphy is speaking directly to me, as he stares into my soul and sings “You know the way…”
My choices have been cutting me up for far too long. I’m crying now and ready to get CLEAN! 🥲🖤🎶
You can do this.. keep strong and follow the process

That voice will always be an incredible magic carpet that will immediately take take me on a journey through wonderful memories of love and heart break' as well as suicide attempts and the courage to finally find my voice.... my poetry and a vision into the true beauty of life.

So pretentious
Yes! "That voice will always be an incredible magic carpet that will immediately take take me on a journey through wonderful memories "
nathan bellamy Aren't we judgemental... Go drink some vinegar, bellamy.
Bowie's a genius - Peter's a genius: Peter speaks more from a personal perspective, Bowie more through characters.
I completely agree.
Except for "Rise and Fall of Ziggy and Spiders From Mars" album and for his last one, Black Star where Bowie was extremely personal.
But yes, his whole career was mostly "conceptual" while Murphy is more personal.
@@-NoneOfYourBusiness It's true that Blackstar, The Next Day and Reality were very personal albums. But Ziggy Stardust was the least personal album ever for Bowie, he said it many times himself, it was a way for him to get self-esteem on stage and he had to get rid of the character, because people were associating it with his real self too much.
That voice...sublime!
I love Peter Murphy/ Bauhaus so much that I still play his songs even now as I'm deaf.... I miss music so much. 💜😥😥😥
Peter’s eyes and stares are something else.....beyond this world when you look into them
His voice is pure liquid gold 🙌🏾
Dark, mysterious, sensual, deep, moving, one of a kind
The delivery of the vocals/lyrics like when he holds that wind lyric note 👌🏾
I’d give anything to be in that forest with him jamming, I’ll dance for him allllllllll nightttttttt longggggggg 💃🏾 😎🖤🥰😍😘
Lady, you stated the perfect definition of him.
Talked for all of us.
Congrats.
Saw Peter Murphy when he toured for this album. FANTASTIC!!!
Catherine Hart Saw him on his alive tour. Love the acoustic version of this.
Cool! He is an amazing artist.
Catherine Hart You are so lucky....I caught him when Bauhaus reunited about 10 yrs. ago. This and "Disappear" are my two favorite PM songs
Senator Dracula I think you are SO LUCKY to have seen Bauhaus. I love this song. I also like "Indigo Eyes" and "All Night Long."
Me too! In 1988, at the Paramount in Denver. He was brilliant. And now I feel oooold.
One of my favourite bands. I miss the 80s too. Late 70s too.
People think you’re weird if you like the 80s. It was the best!!
Eternal and undying.
Saw him in concert...a long time ago....
When...the concert started...the lights went out and it became so dark I couldn't even see my hand in front of my face....THEN a beam of light to the stage....
THAT ONLY light in the pitch black arena was a beam of focused light that focused ONLY on his eyes....thats ALL you could see....and his eyes were closed.
a moment later....his eyes OPENED WIDE ...
it was THEN I knew I was in the right place at the right time...because Cuts You Up...began.
Lucky!!!
Saw him also,same deal,pitch black,single beam. But the beam hit a hand held mirror ( in Peter's hand) and he reflected the beam around the Warfield in San Francisco,as he sang Bella Lagose's dead. Off the hook!
He's such a wonderful performer. Again, the first time I saw him, he opened with the eye trick, and the crowd went ballistic. I feel blessed for having been standing right down front, against the stage at one of his shows, close enough to have been sweated on by his Elvish Goth Majesty during "Hollow Hills". It felt like a baptism.
I saw him at the Roxy in Atlanta, and witnessed it, such power flowed effortlessly.......
Wow!
This song is timeless. His voice is at its best when he maximizes its depth and resonance. I never get tired of listening, and watching the video. 🥰

This is freaking beautiful... And those eyes!
I'm jealous about Peter Murphy's face and voice. And probably I'm not the only one.
Ironic that he's called "Murphy", cuz when I block his nose from view, he looks like RoboCop.
Hes like a alternate david bowie

Melina karen Agree!
why am i so drawn to this song. this is a genius song. how it comes together - the beat, the words, the voice. that voice is so haunting, cold, intense, desolate yet at the same time not defeated or hopeless. this song gives me such an inspiring sadness.
I loved reading your comment, I feel exactly the same. It feels like it’s from a different world, and inspiring sadness is spot on.
I think that was quite possibly his intention.
This wonderful singer, this wonderful, atmospheric song..takes me back to 4 years working at a children's refuge in the 1980s. it cut me up a lot then, and even now, this song takes me back to attempting to comfort and patch up little lives. I'm not sure that Pete had such a scenario in mind at the time. It was the hardest, but best job I've ever worked at. This wonderful song let me know that I was doing the hardest, yet best-intentioned yards. And I earnestly hope that most of those little lives went on to prosper and be happy.
Hello! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day. Stay Safe!
driving scene in Box of Moonlight....hauntingly beautiful
I saw Peter Murphy 3 times back in the day, at clubs in Florida. I don't think I've ever seen anyone that sounds as good live as he did. Amazing voice!! So cool. Great memories!
I'm never tired to listen this song, after all those years....SO GREAT !!!
me too, first song I play when I come to work in the morning.
2022 and its still a GEM!!! Had this in college in 1989.
2023. glad to have a bauhaus friend turn me on to peter's solo stuff. it's just so freaking good and underappreciated
