@@bealetmPerth wasn't a prisoner colony like the east coast it was free settlers and the Ruth Faulkner Library in Belmont is a legacy for Dave the lead singers mum
@@sherrymorris8628 I used to listen to them in high school in the late 80's early 90's in California... they *did* get some airplay on KROQ in Los Angeles also in the mid 90's... not sure if they still do over there.
@@adamstamp5386 me and my friends out in Hawaii used to put them on every weekend driving to the north or west shore to surf back in the 80's. 1 was from Texas, 1 from Louisianna and I was from Florida. We all knew them, anyone who surfed back then knew Hoodoo Gurus it was just a thing.
Dave's voice has always been underrated. It's so smooth and sweet that's it's easy to miss the huge range and big interval jumps that he nails with apparent ease in the days before ProTools and Autotune.
In 1986 when I was 16 I made myself a purple paisley shirt dress in the style of the shirts worn in this video. My mother's full-time job was a haute couture dressmaker and she taught me to sew at age 12 on industrial sewing machines. No other teenage girl I knew or ever saw had a dress like my purple paisley shirt dress. My mother took me into Sydney by train to buy the fabric from an expensive, specialty fabric shop, where she used to buy fabric for her clients. We made a special trip specifically just to buy the fabric. It was made from 100% pure Australian merino wool. I wore it with fish nett stockings and ankle boots with six buckles up each side. I loved that dress.
Still love this song ... Living the dream in Sydney in 1984 driving across the harbour bridge, sun shining, windows open Triple M on the car radio. ❤ It doesn't get much better!
I waited about 40 years to hear this song live. It became my anthem in 2015 for the themes in the song. Tonight was the night, in San Diego at Humphrey's by the Bay. Thanks HDG's! Great concert.
I don't understand how come these guys weren't more famous. They weren't in the UK charts. I vaguely recognised what's my scene but even then I think that was on an American TV show. I only came across them within the last month or so and I'm nearly 38.
Like a lot of Aussie bands in the 80’s, they were criminally underrated. I’ve introduced one of my friends, who recently immigrated from England, to the “Gurus” and Angels. They are now 2 of his favourite bands
Saw them in concert live here in florida...i have seen manymany shows..i cannot get this tune out of my head....the show was great..it was worth driving hours across the whole state!!!
They performed miles above expectations. My wife came in not knowing who they were and left a fan! The St. Pete show was one of the best live shows I have seen.
Used to see them live whenever they came to town in the 80s and 90s. Was devastated when they broke up and over the moon when they got back together. Still see them today if I can. To hear the whole crowd start singing the opening verse is an amazing feeling.
Tu ragazzo hai un futuro radioso .solo per il fatto che così giovane ascolti questa splendida musica fa di te un eletto!buona vita da Luca monza italy!!
Those opening chords STILL give me chills to this day! Love the Guru's!!! Second favorite Aussie band after INXS (sorry guys). I remember wearing out Mars Needs Guitars back in the 80s (seriously one of the best 80s albums ever!), after hearing about the band on the "Rock & Roll Alternative." I'll forever be grateful to George Gimarc for that! ❤❤❤ "I'm a stoneage Romeo, got a space age Juliet...will take guitars to Mars, and hit the discotheque, ha ha!" LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!
Besides ACDC the first Aussie band I heard was rose tattoo on a late night radio show in Honolulu. Don't recall them aging well like this did though or INXS
Dave Faulkner is also a bit of encyclopedia on music. I appreciate someone who is into what they do enough to be a bit of an authority on the subject. Great Oz band.
Fantastic band and an even more fantastic song. Brings back memories of speeding down the Mt. Vernon parkway at 2AM in my 89 Ford Mustang 5.0, wind in my face, music blasting through the darkness, the moon's silver reflection on the Potomac River's still waters. Awesome times.
What a band! Australia have in my opinion produced some of the worlds best bands EVER!!!! These guys are one the absolute best bands ever to come out of Australia 💯👏🏻👏🏻🥇🥰
I'm fairly certain this hit #1 on the Charts in 1985 If they did a Music Poll of Gurus' fans today, this song would rank very high and I mean very high. TOP 5 Gurus songs.
Was driving through Salt Lake City in the 80s and heard on the radio that they were playing at the armory. Pulled off I15 and made the show. The Bangles were the main act.
Man I haven’t heard this one in so long! and today while driving, I heard it on SiriusXm first wave station with Richard Blade Dj! Love this song!🎵 ❤👌😎👍
No they aren't under rated at all, they are very highly rated. They not only received commercial succe$$, but the highest of critical acclaim. They are one of Australia's best loved Bands.
Yes, excellent musicianship and lyrics. Probably the loudest concert I’ve ever been to. St. Andrew’s Hall in Detroit. My ears were ringing for 2 days. Summer 1985.
When you make posts like this you really need to mention the exact date and year also. Six years from now someone will be wondering if it's "this Friday."
Like a child stumbling through the darkness and finding the light switch. Turning on this beautiful and brilliant song in the midst of all the other 80s crap. It's still my favorite song...
This song spontaneously and inexplicably pops into my head, likely from hundreds of accumulated hours spent playing MVP Baseball. Very happy this video is up.
@@hdmccart6735 MVP Baseball was a Arcade and Baseball simulator game made by EA Sports. It began as EA Triple Play but then was reworked as MVP Baseball to compete against Aklaim’s MLB Baseball game. MVP Baseballs legacy lives onto this day as it’s a favorite to be modded with modern rosters and stadiums. EA Sports MVP Baseball lost the MLB license after 2K was pissed about EA receiving the exclusive rights to NFL Games so they got the MLB exclusive rights. All because of corporate greed and look where we are now with EA Sports and 2K, former shells of themselves.
This is a great song to blast really loud, I must say! I felt like I was the only one in the Midwest town I lived in who was listening to the Hoodoo Gurus. Sadly lost this LP in a flooded apartment basement.
@@jackiebarrett4063 it's about two people who are in Love but have a Bittersweet relationship. One where lots of Love is shown only for it to be cut down by the other. Basically, One of the Lovers has more Love to give than the other can contain and therefore the other must create the Bitterness so as to not be hurt...either way, they are afraid of their own commitment to Love or vulnerability creating that Bittersweet emotion everytime they meet.
@@jackiebarrett4063 the reason I commented it was so important is because most if not all relationships are like this...And the most important point being the Greatest relationship we can have is with ourselves and not found in another. That's also the 'Bittersweet' Truth of Life.
Hoodoos are probably the best band in the world most people have never heard of.... I'm from British psychedelic band Spacemen3. I saw the Hoodoos many times in the 80s and 90s.... always blistering live ... recommend them to anyone loving "Real Music"

You have got to love how you tube pick up on what you listen to I'm 50 this year and from the UK and I have never heard of this band well I'm going in the deep dive now and hopefully I will be able to pick some vinyl up in the uk cheers Australia
You are my sword Your love is its own reward My heart, I have found Gets carved surely by the pound God knows I tried Tried to hold you with all my might But time has won And I could never be that strong I couldn't be that strong (Don't cry) that used to be my favourite song (Don't cry) tears so bittersweet (Don't cry) fill my eyes whenever we meet It's always bittersweet I cut and I bleed You seem to find that so hard to believe Well, that's just too, too bad You could never touch the love that we had for the love we had (Don't cry) some time we'll try to take it back (Don't cry) tears so bittersweet (Don't cry) they kiss my cheeks whenever we meet It's always bittersweet for a love gone wrong (Don't cry) that used to be my favourite song (Don't cry) tears so bittersweet (Don't cry) fill my eyes whenever we meet Anyway We've grown and times change When we meet now it feels so strange Well, I hold you like a sword And you won't cut me, cut me like you did before It's always bittersweet It's always bittersweet It's always bittersweet Bittersweet, bittersweet
You guys are coming to the US for a concert tour? That is insane, that is fucking awesome!!! I have been to many conserts in OZ with you guys and you are simply awesome live. I know this is exactly what the US needs. Pure Rock and Roll.

Australia here
There Australian group
I love them reminds me of a great time with Ray Davenport
You are my sword Butch 😊
Maybe break the pills in half next time Butch.
This song is sublime. Years later, still gives me chills. What a criminally underrated band.
Well I agree with you, but was not Australia a prison colony set up by the British? I've got all things CD by the Hoodoo, love this band!
@@stephensherry7236 Only because North America was no longer a viable location for a prison colony.
@@bealetmPerth wasn't a prisoner colony like the east coast it was free settlers and the Ruth Faulkner Library in Belmont is a legacy for Dave the lead singers mum
Thanks for reminding me.
A hugely underrated band not only in Australia but globally.
These days they would be globally recognised I reckon. Let's make it happen! ❤🦘🐨
Had a lot of hits and mainstream airplay. Not too many can say that. I think they did well!
I didn't realise they were big outside Australian

They're alright

@@sherrymorris8628 ???
I'm proud to say I live on the same continent as Brad Shepherd , anyone who has seen him live has seen rock n roll personified.
I had a crush on him ..& Marty Willson-Piper
Saw him last night in Newcastle…great show ❤
Dave's voice has always been underrated. It's so smooth and sweet that's it's easy to miss the huge range and big interval jumps that he nails with apparent ease in the days before ProTools and Autotune.
It’s also very Australian sounding, so it’s the best music to hear when returning to Australia on the plane
$1 cans of VB beer at the bar + the Hoodoos playing live = Magical times that I truly miss.

TripleM LOL, was JJJ airing back then?
Amazing vocalist, i sang in the 80s and 90s and he was always a benchmark. Also a fantastic guitarist . Just an all round Australian rock legend.
30 years in Oz from Scotland. Still love this band .pure class.
Saw them live in a club in Boston maybe the late 80s… guitarist drank vodka straight all night and fell of the stage during the last song. GREAT show
Is he still alive?
Nice way to treat his audience. What a loser.
@@kevinwhelehan421 Alive and well preserved. Vodka is life.
Australia bands did everything harder than most but music from around the world is fantastic but being Aussie I love Australian music the most 🌻🎵🎶
Saw them in Torino Italia same period Fantastic gig.

One of those rare bands where it doesn't matter where you live on this 🌏 this will always represent Australia in the 80s 🔥👍🏝️
Yes!
The Sunnyboys were red hot
Saw them in concert live here in florida...i have seen manymany shows..i cannot get this tune out of my head....the show was great..it was worth driving hours across the whole state!!!

Welcome to rock n roll kid ;)
Listen to their first album. Stoneage Romeos. It's a perfect rock album.
You've got a good taste for music, check JJ Cale & WIDESPREAD PANIC out if your unfamiliar with their music , I'm betting you'll like tho
that's awesome! I loved them when I was 15 and I'm 54 now.. !
Those opening chords STILL give me chills to this day! Love the Guru's!!! Second favorite Aussie band after INXS (sorry guys).

They were amazing live, and LOUD! My ears were ringing for days!
The first band I saw live ! Still can’t believe my mum let me go when i was only 15.
Dave Faulkner is also a bit of encyclopedia on music. I appreciate someone who is into what they do enough to be a bit of an authority on the subject. Great Oz band.
First heard this with a good friend back in the day. Cool song 1:11
I don't know what else you would want from a rock n roll song than this. The louder the better!
Fantastic band and an even more fantastic song. Brings back memories of speeding down the Mt. Vernon parkway at 2AM in my 89 Ford Mustang 5.0, wind in my face, music blasting through the darkness, the moon's silver reflection on the Potomac River's still waters. Awesome times.
Yeh.. you'd think the windscreens were a bit better
Hoodoos rock !! Legendary band. I was 17 when I heard this song.
Takes me back to the Eighty’s
What a band! Australia have in my opinion produced some of the worlds best bands EVER!!!! These guys are one the absolute best bands ever to come out of Australia 💯👏🏻👏🏻🥇🥰
Love these guys, soooo underrated. First heard them in the mid 80’s, and even then their music was way ahead of other bands at that time.
At a time that was dominated by the keyboard and synthesiser the Gurus still rocked it by traditional means.
Love this band. Guitars all sound amazing
The mercenaries of Music did it again. Thanks God and UA-cam 39 years later memory remains
I'm fairly certain this hit #1 on the Charts in 1985
If they did a Music Poll of Gurus' fans today, this song would rank very high and I mean very high.
TOP 5 Gurus songs.
This should have at least 20M views tbh
Been a fan since Stoneage Romeos- would love to see them in concert. Great tunes, great riffs.
I was lucky enough to see them in Ann Arbor back in the mid 80's did not disappoint
Change Key .....POW !
So cruel this doe not have more hits-classic
Great 80's rocker, it'll never date! :)
Was driving through Salt Lake City in the 80s and heard on the radio that they were playing at the armory. Pulled off I15 and made the show. The Bangles were the main act.

Called my dog hoodoo for how much they resonate with me..
Man I haven’t heard this one in so long! and today while driving, I heard it on SiriusXm first wave station with Richard Blade Dj! Love this song!🎵 ❤👌😎👍

great memories from my high school days in the mid-80s 🙂
63 takes me back to ripping deadmans beach on Ascension island this 8track was always on when we went for a surf and after!
MVP baseball 04 had the greatest soundtrack in any game ever to this day still
Flashbacks to 80s nights and epic Hawaii surf sessions 😊🤙
Yes, excellent musicianship and lyrics.
Probably the loudest concert I’ve ever been to. St. Andrew’s Hall in Detroit. My ears were ringing for 2 days. Summer 1985.
Back in the late '90s my local Hungry Jacks had a free jukebox. I would play this song.
Great 80's rocker, it'll never date! :)
The gurus! They're so Australian! They're so American garage rock! I Bloody love these blokes!
Hoodoo gurus magical...one of the best bands of ALL time
They're playing this Friday night at the Govenor hotel in Adelaide; I'm going!
When you make posts like this you really need to mention the exact date and year also. Six years from now someone will be wondering if it's "this Friday."
I would go back to the 80s in a second if I could!!!
Me too
same here Australia
Being 59 and a new wave dj in Waikiki, I played this same video @ least 1 a night. Fun song very danceable
At my local bottlo in Palmyra Fremantle Dave Faulkner walks out. 🤩 took me straight back to 80s high school.
Listening in December 2022 fantastic song
Great!!!love it since 1986👍🇪🇦
Holy Moly, this came out of nowhere, and am pleased as punch to hear it again! xx
Ozzie music so damm good in the 80's, Hoodoos, Hunters n Collectors, Painter n Dockers....
Midnight Oil....
You forgot Chisel. INXS,The Angels, Aussie crawl, we were so lucky to have such great bands back then.
They're Kiwis
Magenta Moon who ?full of shit !
Mentals - get wet - best Aussie album of all time
Like a child stumbling through the darkness and finding the light switch. Turning on this beautiful and brilliant song in the midst of all the other 80s crap. It's still my favorite song...
Saw these guys at the Termo in Albury in the early 90's. Still one of the best shows I've seen and I've seen plenty.
Love the hoodoos

Saw them in Palo Alto during hs and then Tallahassee while at Florida State... the 80s surfer music - at least around Santa Cruz
Classic 80s n 90s Aussie Pub rock at it's finest, let's bring back the pub scene in all it's glory.
I wish I saw the band live.
This is a great song to blast really loud, I must say! I felt like I was the only one in the Midwest town I lived in who was listening to the Hoodoo Gurus. Sadly lost this LP in a flooded apartment basement.
A great band enjoyed them immensely in my teenage years .
And still do !!!!

OMG, was just going through my old vinyl and found this album with this single. I had forgotten how much I loved this band and this song! 👍🎸🎵🔥
Total cool overload.
Bands like the Hudus allowed grunge to come a few years later. Hat's off to Mr Faulkner and the boys
I love the Gurus.
Please take me back to the 80's............pleeeeeeeeeeeease !!!!!!!!
Move to New Zealand.
One of Australia's greats
one of their best tunes! I love singing it a full volume.
A song about an ex. It really resonates with the feeling you experience at the end of a relationship.

That used to be my favourite song.
Saw them live back in the ❤80❤s awesome live
i love this song now just as much as i did in the mid 80s. some very classic alt pop.

I started my first band at 15 from.hearing the HooDoo Gurus at shows at Selinas Coogee Sydney AU
much respect for getting back to it in a big way !
great song
They’re on tour now!
I can't wait to see them here in NYC tomorrow night.
J'ADORE 🔥

I am looking forward to going to the HOODOO GURUS and also MIDNIGHT OIL concert on 21st April in Sydney
You are my sword
Your love is its own reward
My heart, I have found
Gets carved surely by the pound
God knows I tried
Tried to hold you with all my might
But time has won
And I could never be that strong
I couldn't be that strong
(Don't cry) that used to be my favourite song
(Don't cry) tears so bittersweet
(Don't cry) fill my eyes whenever we meet
It's always bittersweet
I cut and I bleed
You seem to find that so hard to believe
Well, that's just too, too bad
You could never touch the love that we had
for the love we had
(Don't cry) some time we'll try to take it back
(Don't cry) tears so bittersweet
(Don't cry) they kiss my cheeks whenever we meet
It's always bittersweet
for a love gone wrong
(Don't cry) that used to be my favourite song
(Don't cry) tears so bittersweet
(Don't cry) fill my eyes whenever we meet
Anyway
We've grown and times change
When we meet now it feels so strange
Well, I hold you like a sword
And you won't cut me, cut me like you did before
It's always bittersweet
It's always bittersweet
It's always bittersweet
Bittersweet, bittersweet
Brilliant song
This band is up there with the top ten Oz bands
Love them. Love this song and all of their stuff...xxx
