You definitely did not deserve that cosmetic surgery addiction which ruined your beautiful and perfect body sadly enough. I am convinced you are an angel now and you are reunited and dancing with your mother, Steve Coy and all the others you had lost in this sad world in heaven. I respect and adore you and I hope we will meet one day in paradise. Love to all of you!

    Dead or Alive was one of the few bands that actually make pop music cool. Tragic how things ended for Pete but he left a mark on this genre, that in my opinion, solidifies this band as perhaps the greatest pop band to ever exist. There will never be anything that compares.

      Although it's now considered pop, this wasn't really the case at the time. This type of music was categorized as "hardcore" if memory serves me correctly... High energy dance tracks, outside of what was considered pop/new-wave at the time. Still fun nonetheless

    I discovered them when I was only 14 years old. In tenth grade, when I was 15, I sang this song on Halloween dressed as Severus Snape. I don't think my small school in upstate New York was ready for me. Interestingly enough I went on to be the valedictorian of my class. Am now 19. Needless to say I was hooked from the moment I laid eyes on this band. I thank Pete and the rest for my success. Dead Or Alive has become my self-aware addiction that I happily partake in daily.

Well, after that season ended, he was stressing out from having to deal with reconstructive surgery for his face and stressing out due to a lot of family-related issues. No one knew about this until he made it public on a TV show. That whole show was uploaded to UA-cam I believe. Look up "Pete Burns Of Dead Or Alive Biography Channel - Psychic Therapy".

    • @mistreme8341

      This one is no Christian, Brianna. There is no love in him. He uses the Bible as a club not unlike the Pharasees who made use of the Talmud in like manner. Beatiful name by the way. I loved Pete, his 'fuck you' attitude taught me how to make it through a world that hated me.

  • @saltwatercb
    @saltwatercb 8 років тому +175

    My favorite DoA song of all time and one of the most delicious, delightful songs of the 80s--the melody is so joyous even though the lyrics deal with the difficulty of gathering the courage to exit an unsatisfying relationship. There's actually quite a bit of lyrical depth which gets overlooked because of the extraordinarily catchy tune. That fizzy disconnect is certainly part of the song's brilliance.
    I have always adored the line "I Want Surprises," which is just sort of tossed off at the beginning of the song, but is entirely indelible. At least a few times each month I find myself singing that line, out of the blue. It just really resonates for me and presents itself over and over in my consciousness.
    I think part of the brilliance of the song too is that it really encapsulates Pete's personality as someone who was never content with maintaining the status quo--he was most assuredly someone who wanted surprises!

      I'll say this I was a big fan of his as well and this is one of the songs as well as several other hits the head put out with this group called dead or alive but to answer your question 2 why did he mess with his face it's called getting older that's what it is maybe he didn't like the way he looked horses because he's getting no we are all can order they all depends upon how well you take care of yourself and you don't do drugs and don't get caught up in that mess that was happening back in the 80s.

    He was actually a very good singer. My favourite DOA song also. I get the sense it sums up Pete's life journey - intriguing , restless and always searching for something. Anyway I think he would have wanted to disappear like this in a flash rather than fade into old age.
