Paint a Rainbow Earthen trail of slimy goo I smear it on your cheeks like rouge Eyes of red and lips of blue It's cold and safe inside of you Tie me down and shine all over your body Little drops of shark infested sea When the colours change I will chase your sadness away See it glow when I paint a rainbow Flowers grow all over you Daffodils and roses too Sky is painting a rainbow Around your head like a halo Tie me down and shine all over your body Little drops of shark infested sea When the colours change I will chase your sadness away See it glow when I paint a rainbow 3.

I always had a soft spot for the pre-"Isn't Anything" MBV. I love this record, and "Ecstasy and Wine" is amazing too. What a band! Thanks for posting this! I used to work at a used record store that traded in bootlegs, and this was one of my most prized.
It's a little bit late here, but that's not entirely true. While Only Shallow is the only track with live drumming, he also contributed drums (and everything else) on Touched, and the rest of the album is samples of his drumming edited by Kevin Shields.
Nick Fredriksson yeah but loveless was totally missing the “colm”-ness of his drumming. The drumming was stiff and boring, instead of being raucous and exciting like on this record and Isnt Anything.
Top proper Indie. Thanks for sharing it. Got the vinyl in the loft but no record player. Listening to it brings back memories of dressing all in black with lots of hair and having the best time ever 😊
Everyone used to tell me how bad MBV was before Isn't Anything. It just sounds like a different band. If I played this for any of those people back in the day and pretended it was some undiscovered 80's alt rock band they would have obsessed over it!
My old band Faux Slang covered this song once at a party, it was the first time I ever I was lead singer and played drums. it was probably awful but from my seat.. so beautiful 😊
@@roccopentimalli2548 check ebay they have a couple vinyls of their records bunched into one record :) the next one i really want is the vinyl with their peel show recordings + some of their "lost tracks and rare cuts" comp. its rare and expensive but the peel sessions sound great and to have sugar on a record 🥵
Estaba como rara la época de los my bloody valentine cuando todavía estaba David, dónde todos usaban el mismo corte de cabello, peor igual están muy boni sus canciones 😸
I felt like that when I first did an AltaVista search on this band in the late 1990s, and found the EP's songs on a fan site. I'd been a "fan" since Loveless but never even knew about the pre-"Realise" material, any of it. Glad it's all here for the next generation...

Underrated era. Perfect summer psych punk with a dark edge.
the fact that Debbie has the same haircut as the rest of them is strangely hilarious

Close your eyes and let's pretend
We're little children once again
Sticky fingers, dirty minds
When I touch you, girl I come alive
Let's fall in love
Its exciting
I'm gonna make your mouth
A sunny sundae smile
Tie a ribbon in your hair
Try not to notice how I stare
There's desperation in my voice
Have I hurt you, I have no choice
Let's fall in love
Its exciting
I'm gonna make your mouth
A sunny sundae smile
It looks lovely
Illustrates me
Seems to wrap your eyes
A sunny sundae smile
Seems like it's a cumshot and he just got done throat fucking her. Am I a pervert or something?

Earthen trail of slimy goo
I smear it on your cheeks like rouge
Eyes of red and lips of blue
It's cold and safe inside of you
Tie me down and shine
all over your body
Little drops of shark infested sea
When the colours change
I will chase your sadness away
See it glow when I paint a rainbow
Flowers grow all over you
Daffodils and roses too
Sky is painting a rainbow
Around your head like a halo
Tie me down and shine
all over your body

Oh she's vulnerable like me and you
4. Sylvie's Head
Sylvies head, the big machine
Sylvies head, it's Plasticine
Sylvies head, it's bigger than you think
All the money in the galaxy
Couldn't get me out of my tree
Sylvies head, it's lobster red
Sylvies head, it's growing legs
Sylvies head, it's better red than dead
Follow me all around the world
It'll miss and visit your girl

David Conway and the background vocals are so good in this EP
HOW IS EVERYTHING THIS BAND CREATES AMAZING
yes yes yes!
I’ve been listening to loveless LP for so long ..this sounds like a Beach Boys album..I’ve never heard this record befor now.. I like it
This sound must have heavily influenced Pains of Being Pure at Heart . . .
This is a treat. Instead of Ecstasy and Wine that ep lp should've been Sundae Ecstasy and Wine !
Haven't heard this for way to long a time.
This is utterly wonderful
Love this Valentine sound
John Meowzer Brighter sounding.
@@johnathantopey Yes, and even tho it's very pop, punkier, too. Love the faster tempos they preferred then.
Perfect dreamy, ethereal, whimsical pop songs from the greatest shoegaze band of all. Greatest band period.
i've never found a more vivid record
+Logan Norrell Loveless
Ultra Vivid
@@therightovers Loveless is brilliant of course but...heavier. This is lighter, punkier.
疾走感があり、かっこいい。それでいて癒される。素晴らしいっ!
Colm is the bestest drummer ever !
Too bad he played on one Loveless song. I feel like that's what that record is missing
Chris Holmes wait he only played on one track?!?!
yea just only shallow. kevin said that colm got really sick and couldnt even use his legs properly while they were recording
It's a little bit late here, but that's not entirely true. While Only Shallow is the only track with live drumming, he also contributed drums (and everything else) on Touched, and the rest of the album is samples of his drumming edited by Kevin Shields.

Paint a Rainbow 💙
Strength through joy
All the money in the galaxy couldn't get me outta my tree :)
I miss being an angsty young teen discovering mbv’s discography
i love this record
neighbors are probably wondering if i'm ok in here
if they listen to the lyrics in "paint a rainbow," they'll be right to wonder
Got this. Saw them at the Mardi Gras Nottingham. Fantastic.
Top proper Indie. Thanks for sharing it. Got the vinyl in the loft but no record player. Listening to it brings back memories of dressing all in black with lots of hair and having the best time ever 😊
the guitar sounds like a blow drier. brilliant. make out music.
Tate LaBianca i too make out to the sound of blow driers
This sound illuminates suddenly youtube! no doubts great period....
this is gloriously loud.
Everyone used to tell me how bad MBV was before Isn't Anything. It just sounds like a different band. If I played this for any of those people back in the day and pretended it was some undiscovered 80's alt rock band they would have obsessed over it!
Those who say they were bad understand nothing. His entire career is absolute genius.
Anything after ecstasy and wine is at worst, ok. Lose yourself in me is a fucking banger and you can't tell me otherwise.
My old band Faux Slang covered this song once at a party, it was the first time I ever I was lead singer and played drums. it was probably awful but from my seat.. so beautiful 😊

Interesting. Kevin does the high notes really well - not miles away from Belinda's vocals.
He also sang the high notes on "When You Sleep"
David Conway sing
Wait, who is singing?

You're so right. I've been coming back to this EP for years. This was best thing they ever did, it's a fucking masterpiece.
agreed
@@jeremylayne you've gone completely off the deep end
did mbv make anything that wasn't a masterpiece?
A jewelry, nostalgia.
so this is the missing link :D
It's the song "We're So Beautiful" was trying to be, and the band only gets better from there
While this does deserve a reissue… this vinyl rip sounds perfect and I worry I’ll miss the crackle and compression lol
Tiny Diamonds ;)
Perfect. In every way. Where can I buy a physical copy of this
i wish I could know... If you find out, tell me please..
ebay obvs. Or wait about 10 years til Kevin Shields remasters it and it gets released on a Pre-Creation compilation LP.
Today MBV is finally avaliable on Spotify. But the old rarities are not there yet. Anyways, I love records that we can touch and smell...
ah it would be beautiful
20 years
🎶Tiny diamonds shine all over your body 🎶 😉
love
Thank you.
Get it reissued NOW KEVIN!!!! I don’t care what Dave Conway says!!!!
Thank you for this!
Play at 0.75 for the ultimate experience.
gracias chiniya por acercarme este disco ahora lo bajo te amo
According to Trouser Press Record Guide, Sunny Sundae Smile was about "blow up doll love."
Does anyone know any lp/album similar to this one? I loved it
Like ''The Byrds'' with ''Buzzcocks drummin'' the first song.
Sounds like ride
maravilhoso!
Amazing !

Oh shit that's him. His vocals were already great then.
Seriously?! This just blew my mind! Love Gorillaz and MBV
No, it's David Conway

the early mbv albums are what shoegaze should have been, punk with 10 effects pedals and no insecurity
you're so right

which year is this from?

1986
why hasn't this record been reissued?
