Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
This is the happy house
We′re happy here in the happy house
Oh it's such fun, fun, fun
Whoa-ohh
We′ve come to play in the happy house
And waste a day in the happy house
It never rains, never rains
We've come to scream in the happy house
We're in a dream in the happy house
We′re all quite sane-ane-ane
Whoa-ohh
This is the happy house
We′re happy here, oh
There's room for you if you say you do
But don′t say no or you'll have to go
We′ve done no wrong with our blinkers on
It's safe and calm if you sing along
Sing along, sing along
Ho-ho
This is the happy house
We′re happy here in the happy house
To forget ourselves and pretend all's well
There is no hell
Ho-ho
Whoah-ohh-ohh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh

I'm looking through your window
Ooh-ooh
I′m looking through your window

“If ur home less just buy a house”
Ayeeeee!
My mom saw them when she was pregnant with me at lollapalooza '91. All her punk friends made a circle around her so she could dance in the pit without anyone bumping into her belly.
My wife and I weren't married yet, so my kid can only say we were there. She does get to claim me as a 9/11 survivor though, which was not nearly as fun as Lollapalooza "91.
Your parents, they had to have caught the first Warped Tour as well, amirite? Did they take you?
Isadora Savage That’s a lame story and you’re a lame millennial
benny, chill
Cool
Scott Elton Bradford That was hilarious.
I love how Siouxsie is just this mesmerizingly wild, spooky, carnival person yet it looks like 5 minutes ago, she pulled these two clean-cut guys from the street to join her band.
And then you hear those guitar and drum lines and go, yeah, those guys are as crazy as her. :)
@@HolyRollerTV As in, crazy good.
Really ahead of their time, I swear I've heard songs that sound exactly like this released in just the last 5 years.
“I like it spooky” - return of the dead 2
Video look a bit split enz like and the song always reminds me of fun boy 3 on acid
Я искренне не понимаю, почему такие прекрасные песни замечают только через несколько лет.. 😢
И то, их в основном узнают по трендам из тт, лайка..
@@user-xu1zm1mu2mкто-то же принес это в тик ток) какой-то миссионер принес дикарям просвещение 😂
каких несколько, десятки)
Не очень понимаю комментарий. Песня вошла в топ 20 Великобритании во время выпуска и альбом вошел в топ 5. Сегодня все ведущие музыканты признают влияние этой группы на всю индустрию рок-музыки и не только. В целом это довольно популярная песня даже сегодня и ее можно временами услышать на радио (по крайней мере в Европе) и уж конечно любой человек разбирающийся в музыке знает эту песню.
потому что викенд красиво перепел
This scene in Last night in Soho where she is running and can't escape the horrible dreams was fantastic.
Edgar has phenomenal taste
So glad I found this comment. THIS SONG MADE THAT SCENE!!!
The slow motion danxe sequence between Ellie and John after the perfect "Happy Halloween Love-birds" is hauntingly beautiful.. they move so fluid with the harmony if this song.
Yes
@@shogunjo i almost envy the brillant way edgar is able to use music in every scene, lucky for me i can learn form his films
I never met my mother and father bcuz they died in a car accident but i found out from her best friend that she was obsessed with this band and everyone told her she looked just like siouxsie
This band makes me feel connected to my mother in so many levels even tho i never had the chance to meet her...i feel very blessed for having the chance to feel what she felt listening to these masterpieces
I am so sorry for your great losses.
My father passed away last year at the age of ninety five. I miss him, and wish that we could still be together. I, also, use
music, the music we shared, to draw
close to him. Again, I am sorry for
your losing both of your parents at such
a young age. You seem like a good person who has done well in life, despite
what you were missing. God Bless you!
That’s a really cool connection, they’re there dancing with you!
Just absolutely may God bless and look after you, this brilliant band have saved me ❤❤❤
That's tragic. I realise this sounds empty but I'm sorry for your loss. Take care of yourself. They would want you to have a full life.
Thanks so much for your very moving and personal post. Great song I bought at the time but now thanks to you it’s taken on a much more special and important value. Stu X
So this is where Mindless Self Indulgence sampled the beat for Bitches from
Exactly what I thought!
YEAH I WAS LIKE "WAIT, I KNOW THIS SONG"
yep
EVERYTIME I HEAR IT LMAO
that was i thought 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Siouxsie was already something of an influencer even before she took to the stage. Her look, makeup and clothes were completely original. Her band and stage presence was truly magnificent, top musicans that gave us a sound never heard before or since...
Every goth chick since the 80s is emulating her, and most now don't even know who she islol
@@chaoticneutral6288 I don't know, I was there, in that scene and am pretty sure her and Betty Paige were huge style influences
‘Never heard of since’
Well you’ve clearly not listened to all the albums this sound influenced - such as Disintegration by The Cure.
The Cure have been around for a very long time. Pornography released in ‘77.
@@deletebilderberg Influenced??? Robert Smith PLAYED guitar for Siouxsie. Search for NOCTURNE here on the tubes.
It’s amazing really. She had zero singing lessons or experience in music. She just did it and it worked regardless.
Thats what punk was all about, it didnt matter if you knew how to sing or play an instrument. You just got up and did it yourself and saw if it worked out or not.
@un known no... natural talent.
it's called "Just Do It" , courage and will to start.
@@umitanonymous3400 You Do Know,, Suzy was A Dude?
Love her, saw them twice early 80s ❤
The melodic line played by the guitar at the start and during the breakdowns is pure genius.
Used by Capella u got to know .
@@potkettle46 Yep, I remember that back in the day, I think it was early 90's
And Techno Bert's "Neue Dimensions" 1990 some years before Cappella@@potkettle46
That’s the great John McGeoch for you. He also played guitar for Magazine.
It's the only good part of the song I feel.
Here we are still alive, miss that days when music was so cool and unique, without smartphone, just a walkmen , black eyeliner and dreams to be like Siouxsie 🖤
Exactement bravo
This album is so underrated, the drums are great, Budgie never repeats patterns, super creative drummer.
I agree that Budgie is a great drummer, but his patterns do repeat. They repeat, but very minimally... and then they morph into new patterns which is a very creative way to play. It keeps your attention but you don't lose the vibe of the song.
Listen to house of balloons by The Weeknd
@@valentinoguerrero3784 fuck no
In his podcast Budgie says this was the first track he did with the Banshees after he left the Slits - the similarity with Typical Girls is there
This is a freaking sinister masterpiece!!! Her doubled-vocals haunting "wow" gives me the chills!
100% agree. Early 1980 featured lots of songs with this atmospheric sound: A Forest by The Cure, Mirror In The Bathroom by The Beat, Echo Beach by Martha & The Muffins, Can't Help Myself by Flowers/Icehouse, I Got You by Split Endz, Underpass by John Foxx, etc.
Behave
You’re easily scared
@@ajs41 Your list demonstrates exquisite taste.
plus the eerie whistling at the end ...
Ok my opinion of the Weeknd just went way up. Had no clue he sampled this back in 2011 and I about died when I heard it playing at the Super Bowl halftime show!
YES!
Ngl I never knew the songs before but it gave me goosebumps and it was the best moment at the show
It was a great sample too.
OG Weeknd fans last night, hearing “House of Balloons:” wow, deep cut there
Me: WTF?! They’re singing Siouxsie?!
I hope you check out his whole House of Balloons mixtape. If u like this you’d definitely like the whole project
Thank you Abel for introducing me to this genre of music
Criingy how that Creep attaches to Our Cultures
@@aotctdwhat??
80s was the best of times for music.
I almost had a heart attack when this song was played at superbowl
It actually was house of balloons of the weeknd and he sampled part of this one I recommend you hear it also if you like it
Same!
its house of balloons, surprised lol
the song he played was house of balloons/glass table girls though that song heavily samples and interpolates lyrics from this song
I was honestly so happy to hear something older from him. I love all the music he puts out, however, the older, the better. Just my opinion.
I love how The Weeknd used this as a sample on 'House of Balloons / Glass Table Girls'.
He did it justice... Nostalgia. 🎈😊
I remember seeing Siouxsie & The Banshees in concert.

mindless self indulgence sampled it as well! i would not recommend them though.
@@BalorBallora i love them even more than weeknd but yea would not recommend them.
Lol MSi are my guilty pleasure
You lying
Man that guitar is haunting
As someone suffering from Agoraphobia after having my son, and literally being afraid to just leave my house, this song resonates with me greatly, expressing how we unreasonably believe our house is the only safe place, but we’re pretty much stuck here due to our own fears, and justify our fears by falsely thinking our house is the only safe and happy place in the world, when in reality, it’s trapping us and suffocating us.
You need to get out more 😂😂😂
@@dms8418 that’s the problem with your generation. Nobody thinks deeply about anything.
@@pinkchaos. i'm with you, or not as the as would be, anxiety rules my head. Just wondered where McGeough was or had he passed!
@@dms8418 Low EQ response
Probably get off UA-cam and seek professional help for the sake of your infant child!? Yikes. That poor kid doesn't have a chance with PINK CHAOS as a Mom. So embarrassing.
Never realized how darn good the drums are on this, seriously good.
Same! I literally came here to say the same thing! It's one of my absolute fave songs of the post-punk era, and on listening to this again for the first time in years (I had the LP, who knows where that is now), I realised that proto-breakbeat is really just awesome. That's Budgie, who became Siouxsie's partner. The whole thing is just perfection - the lyric, Siouxsie's vocal (of course), John McGeoch's poignant lead guitar (why he isn't in the video...), and Steve Severin with that great bassline. All fabulous.
Yes! Back in da days I was a punk drummer, but this guy is doing somethin absolutly not easy, and tight like steel! Great.
Budgie is one of my all time fav drummers for sure ( Check out 'The Creatures' is the singer and drummers side project )
@@Scarecrow2311 the Slits too I think
Drummers are always underestimated
I've never heard this song until I saw Last Night in Soho. I love it.
Cant believe i never heard this song before ,,,,!,!!!!
Yeah it absolutely slaps, like all of the soundtrack
Me too. Just watched the movie yesterday
i had an idea for doin a short film with a party scene and this one was going to be the main song, and now i came from seeing last night in Soho and Edgard wright already did it 😭
nambre bro, pues a buscarle más q hay d sobra
Honestly loved that MSI sampled this because they introduced me to this band
THANK YOU! I WAS TRY8NG SO HARD TO REMEMBER WHERE ELSE I HAD HEARD THE BEGINNING
Anyone 2024?? This absolute gem!
Me!! 12/4/2024!!!!

Still here.
Still dancing in the "happy house"😅
Lyrics:
This is the happy house-we're happy here in the happy house oh it's such fun
We've come to play in the happy house
And waste a day in the happy house-it never rains
We've come to scream in the happy house We're in a dream in the happy house
We're all quite sane
This is the happy house-we're happy here There's room for you if you say "I do"
But don't say no or you'll have to go
We've done no wrong with our blinkers on It's safe and calm if you sing along
This is the happy house-we're happy here in the happy house.
To forget ourselves-and pretend all's well There is no hell.
СПАСИБО.
Last reversal makes sense never forget, it's not all well , there is hell,and a reversal on the line we're all quite sane,,the music business,sane?
Was not expecting to hear Happy House in the US halftime performance that The Weekend was performing. It was a pleasant surprise. Looked it up and he used this as a sample for his song “House Of Ballons” it’s pretty good!
Okay it wasn't me lol
He sampled the song in House of Balloons / Glass Table Girls from one of his early mixtapes. I just realized it was a sample 😳.
I about died!!!
Came here bc I wasn’t expecting it during the Super Bowl either! 🖤
I was super surprised because you never really hear this kind of music in mainstream.
Mam nadzieję że nasze pokolenie przerwie to ,,happy house”, obecne już od pokoleń
Oby
Też mam taką nadzieję
this is heaven to my ears
Bowie once said he plays dark music wether he was happy or sad with that in mind this is my go to track
Makea sense
I never heard Bowie even mention the banshees
Music is an emotional outlet, the best music is born of sadness, anger, fear, profoundly negative emotions. If you're happy, you're just happy, but if you have a lot of bad emotions, you have to do something with them and art is the best medicine. Happy songs are shite lol.
Abir nobody said he did
No music in general
I'll never forget the night me and my dad sat up all night listening to siouxsie and the banshees together :)
On acid??
beautiful memory (:
You... lucky!!!
❤
Milly Softley i always do that when i am back home for a visit. Dust those records and put them on
This very song inspired Mindless Self indulgence and The Weeknd to make Bitches and House of Balloons. I am grateful for that guitar riff.
Finally someone says about msi
Happy to see that Jenna Ortega implemented some of Siouxsie's dance moves in this video into her rave dance on Wednesday. I loved Siouxsie & the Banshees back when they were still performing and was happy to get to see them on tour many years ago when they visited the Florida Theatre :D

I think this is one of the first post punk songs ever played in the super bowl
he didn’t play this song, he sampled it
Are you lost? He didn’t play this song at the halftime show, he sampled this song for his “House of Balloons”. So he played his own song at the halftime show.
What post punks songs were played in the super bowl anyway?
This is gothic rock
@@posadistpilled8048 bruh this is gothic rock 🤣🤣
Siouxsie made it to Super Bowl 2021 via The Weeknd !! Classic greatness.
How? I haven’t seen it.
No!
@@johnhawk1089 I guess you don't know the song "Happy House" by Siouxsie.
@@helenfein6103 yes i know Happy House. I just don’t know what The Weeknd’s connection is to it. I didn’t watch the super bowl.
sorry but, very out of place to have sung happy house in that mix
Wow..amazing music decades later..more talented musicians here than all modern-day mainstream music
Budgie is such a genius. I mean they all are.
Abel used this sample so well.....
beautiful man, just beautiful 😔
Miss Yancey listen to House of Balloons by the Weeknd and youl see
Abel = Generic Boring voice
@@theuberman7170 oh you mean the guy whose voice is often compared to michael jackson? My mistake

Cheers & Huzzah!
Monday May 27th 1957
and she still looks stunning!
Damn. I remember watching this video years ago...When in a goth club...Holy crap that was so long i forgot. Bless you Jenna Ortega for reminding me.
I landed in the UK from NZ in SEP 77 and had a musical culture shock. I knew Glam rock and soft rock and heavy rock. When i heard bands like Siouxsie I was converted ,thankyou UK
her dancing is wonderfully weird, i love it
love it too :D
IN THE HAPPY HOUSE!
Haha she was cute tho
Better than twerking for sure.

TWO PUFFS FOR THE LADIES WHO BE DOWN FOR THAT
Siouxsie is one of those bands that echoed across the four corners of the world... indelible.
The drums in this (along with everything else) hit a vibe in my body and my mind.
Abel is a genius for sampling this
what about cappella?
XOTWOD Doc McKinney and IIIangelo sampled it, not “Abel”
Lil D maybe idea was by abel
Ripping off other people's music isnt genius.
@First Name Last Name He just hasn't heard HOB/GTG
Dare to be rare Siouxsie. What a stylish unique individual. What a voice! She influenced those of us who were a decade younger than her in the best possible way.
amen
Cat Paw would have been cooler.
I like your username... I am tempted to say that if the bird is the word, then the cat is the law...
Cappella took the sample out at the beginning and speeded it up and used it in ….u got to know …….👏👏
Remember my mum cleaning the house with Mr sheen to Siouxie and the banshees 🤩🥰 happy days
Tim Burton's daily dreams.
That cutesy, talentless sellout shouldn't be mentioned on the same page with Siouxsie. He just commercialized what the real goths created.

The picking on guitar is a work of a genius. Love the reggae bassline, love the dub drumbeats, love the backing vocals, one of the best singles of all time

I love this song❤

80's music videos were so great. I remember sitting in front of the t.v watching them for hours.
Hi old man
February 7, 2021, the night when every goth in America simultaneously got confused as hell hearing SATB covered/sampled at that sportsball game almost none of us care about...
Pretty much lol
Fuckin lol
There was an awesome spectacle in Tampa showcasing Weeknd’s considerable talent and rich taste in music, bookended by one of the least competitive athletic contests I’ve ever watched. 💀🦇
i didn't even know the superbowl was happening when my friend frantically texted me about it as this happened lmao
LMAOO
My favorite video by the Banshees; it not only captures the feel of the song, but the feel of the whole album and even the cover art.
Ah, the amazing invisible guitarist song! Siouxsie and the Banshees at their best.
She's perfect.
Very much indeed!
Still is.
THIS is perfect!
Wonderful.
To be 17 again ! Just in the 6th at school . Wonderful time.
Back in the 80s I was pretty much a metalhead. But my then girlfriend was a Goth and dragged me to go see Siouxsie at Radio City Music Hall in NY. After the first song I was hooked. Been a fan ever since.
Andy Towler Don’t disagree.
Лучше поздно, чем никогда! Я только сейчас узнал об этой группе, она прекрасна!
The cinematography and artistic Mastrify are ASTONISHING!!! This is TRULY Siouxiose!!!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Damn you really butchered her name
Me and my mum had a bad relationship whenever we’d argue I’d put this song on to take the piss out of our “happy house” and dance around like a loon to piss her off. Oh memories
Hope mum and you ok now brilliant tune 🤠
I can empathise with you! When our stepmother flew off the handle, which was often, brother and I would walk up the stairs singing "this is the happy house, we're happy here, but it ain't fun".
Hope things are much better for you all now.
when my parents got divorced my mums side of the family were rlly shitty to my dad especially bc he could barely afford to eat so they used that as an advantage, and they used to try and stop me from seeing him and tell him not to ruin their "happy house" which is pretty ironic bc that shithole is abusive asf. i still live there but this song reminds me of that time when everything was rlly fucked up and tense. its not as bad as before but im trying to get out. im almost old enough to move out so i just gotta wait :)
That sounds utter cringe.
how gay did you turn out Padraig Pearse probably a bit or Graham Norton wow that's gay lol Slan
Excellent. I saw them once but after the gig we were chased through the streets of London by skinheads...ah those were the days.
Heather, just wanted to let you know: you're the coolest and this comment was a roller coaster from start to finish I hope I'm as cool as you one day
omg that place sure wasnt the happy house
then punkz n skin become one
talk about discrimination they call it now..why people jump
so easy to say racism
like McDonald's

easy easy
my brother and friends hate anything i listen to..
made you tuff for later
only 1 of three blk dude in the scene..now i see pink hair
They paid you a very strange compliment
Those were the days 😊
Я вчера искала эту песню так как, в альбоме Frankenstein Girls Will Seem Strangely Sexy
(Mindless Self Indulgence) в песне Bitches использовался этот сэмпл в начале песни.
One of my favourite songs of the 80's
Jamming over here 😎🖤🎶🗣️🎤
Music got you lo-o-ost. Nights end so much quicker than the days did. Same clothes, you ain't ready for your day shift.
TaxEvasion that was the drugs man
This place will burn you u-u-up
Baby it's okay all my niggas next door
they be working in the trap so get louder if you want
To me she still sounds as fresh as ever. There's something so intriguing and interesting about her... Haunting perfection.
Its never dark and I hate it when people think of her work as dark and gloomy. Or the Banshees. Its enlightening. Its a safe kind of wonderful place to be. So to speak. Maybe Im an old weird gal. I dunno...
Sounds really fresh
Also could have been in line with mamas and the papas and the hollies.
Siouxsie inspires Wednesday Addams on the dance floor.
I don't know why we lost that music and videos
NIGHTS PASS SO MUCH QUICKER THAN THE DAYS DID
SAME CLOTHES YOU AINT READY FOR YOUR DAY SHIFT
Listening to Siouxsie's song is like falling down the rabbit hole.
A rabbit hole you never want to leave
@@fillerbunnyninjashark271 true that. It's once in a lifetime experience
Well their label WAS Wonderland records..
nights pass so much quicker than the days here
can't believe in all my years I am just hearing this...super groovy and brilliantly understated!
Same. I'm big on post-punk/goth/new wave but still have homework to do. Just heard this on Last Night in Soho.
Drumming is amazing - love the syncopation.
The off-beat snare and squoze hi-hat makes it.....
Pure genius.....!!
Budgie is one of the greatest drummers around.
From Wiki:
In 2013, Spin rated him at No. 28 in their list of "The 100 Greatest Drummers of Alternative Music", writing: "Post-punk introduced a lot of amazing drummers, but none more influential than Budgie. With the Banshees, Budgie didn't just play rhythms-he played hooks and leads, brilliant parts that set the songs on fire. His tom-tom-intensive approach, [was] enlightened by his awareness of world music".Spin considered his "most booming moment" to be "Into the Light", from 1981's Juju, saying: "Budgie drums up a marvel of kinetic syncopation and invention".
Defo influenced Reni’s drumming
Budgies the man... Married Siouxsie too which I consider an impossible feat...
Before breakbeat existed -amazing. Budgie was into polyrhythms etc, and this was really a much better take on a "reggaeish" vibe than so many non-Jamaican musicians who attempted it. So, imagine in some alternate universe, instead of sampling the Amen Break ad infinitum, if somehow Budgie's beats became the basis of DnB
25 years ago an Australian friend Ian went to a random party and had a conservation with the legend that is Siouxsie Sue. Lucky buggar.
Одна з них пісень, що вплинули на мене, як на виконавця... Кайфар короч🥰
Been here sense Wednesday
get it😂
Saw them so many times live in the eighties, even when Robert Smith of The Cure was standing in as guitarist. I always remember the Souxsie clones that used to walk around at the time.☺
Bet none of them were close to Siouxsie's brilliance though ;D
They did look good. I remember seeing her at Hammersmith Palais and they were all walking around with long back combed hair and Souxsie rocked up on stage with a really short haircut. The look on their faces 😅
What a time period. I wish I was there.
Where the hell has all this daring invention, laser hot charisma and boldness gone???
Special times. Felt all so commonplace at the time. But now we look back and realise how utterly magical it was.
I'm sure it's there if you look for it.
France
Nope. Intelligent people do stuff for free these days.
They're gone because of political correctness and dumbing down the masses. You can't write a decent music or shoot a good, honest movie anymore. You can, of course - but no one will hear you becase of total media control and censorship. Welcome to 1984.
Love the drumming sequence. Love it!!!
Cruel World 2023 wasn't so cruel... with Siouxsie rocking it.🥰☝🏾
"We're all quite sane, in the happy house." Brilliant musically lyrically and vocally; another candidate for one of the great all-time singles.
anyone else love it when you find a song so good that you add it to your playlist before it's even over
Yea
been in my playlist for more than 40 years :)
Kennst Du den Humbener, ich glaube Du warst schon mal mit ihm auf der Schafsjagd.
No
Never got why McGeoch is not in the video. His guitar work was so key to Siouxsie and the Banshees' sound during this time. Great guitarist.
I Totally Agree 👍🔥🎼🎹🎼💯
He was still in Magazine at the time and wasn't officially a member of the Banshees yet
Yes the drumming is outstanding.

Used to go to a goth club, and this was one of the songs the DJ would play when he was switching from "shit nobody wanted to dance to in order to make them get their drink on" to "shit people wanted to dance to to get the floor packed by midnight."
@@ciao214Z No, 2000's. The now defunct Lizard Lounge in Dallas-Fort Worth. They did Praise The Lord (PTL) club on Thurs and The Church on Sundays. When I started going, the main room DJ played a lot of old-school classics like this, Type-O Negative, etc. DJ Virus in the other room would play more modern stuff. Then the main room guy quit or something, and DJ Virus took over the man room and sometimes played old-school stuff.. but usually played more "stompy" stuff. Funs times. Folks were really chill and nice, and the music was great.
House of Balloons took this to another level
I thought there was about to have more "house of ballons" comments but guess not... rip cuz house of balloons was a rly good use of this sample
House of Balloons is one of his best songs that he ever made. Best part of HoB and Trilogy/the mixtapes as a whole.
Ikr, I love that song

Yassss. I love the music he sampled for HoB/ Trilogy as a whole
I came here because I saw this being used on one of Bella Hadid's instagram posts and even though she was using this version I immediately thought of Abel. Certainly she did too
This is the happy house, we're happy here in the happy house
Oh, it's such fun, fun, fun
We've come to play in the happy house
And waste a day in the happy house, it never rains, never rains
We've come to scream in the happy house
We're in a dream in the happy house
We're all quite sane, sane, sane
This is the happy house-we're happy here
There's room for you if you say "I do"
But don't say no or you'll have to go
We've done no wrong with our blinkers on
It's safe and calm if you sing along, sing along, sing along
This is the happy house, we're happy here in the happy house
To forget ourselves and pretend all's well
There is no hell

Post punk and Gothic rock in the 80s. Cool stuff. 😎
The Weeknd sampled this.
how much does he actually sample ?
michael jackson
and other artists we grew up with
and our generations
and cultures styles
he sounds amazing
...the way of playing the drums that shocked me ... when I was +/- 18 years old... Thank you Budgie...Thank Siouxie ande Banshees (Mario .... Como - Italy)
My dad had a thing about Siouxsie and I remember him playing this song a lot when I was very young (born in 78) I was so happy to hear it in Last Night in Soho, perfect song for the film.
We all had a thing for Siouxsie at that time.
@@VincentRE79 first time I heard this was in '81. Had no idea what she looked like, still had a thing for her
Playing this on bass is sm fun
So great when that snare kicks in. The 80's were freaking great.
The Weeknd just used some of this song tonight in his performance at The Super Bowl- hopefully it will draw more people to Siouxsie xo
It actually was his own song house of balloons and he sampled this iconic part but yes hope that more people hear both
