Dum Dum Girls - Rimbaud Eyes [OFFICIAL VIDEO] 

I can't believe I only discovered this band two days ago. Their work is so good.

Underappreciated band. Gems of the world

Phenomenal. The tone of the guitars, the vocals, Sune Rose Wagner's production -- rock in a minor key doesn't get any better than this.

This band is concrete proof that music i find on RU-vid is a billion times better than any current chart music.

Hey, I see from pics taken May 1, 2014 at the London, Scala gig kicking off DDGs' European tour that Dee Dee's hubby Brandon, whose band Crocodiles opened, was wearing his Arthur Rimbaud tee shirt, the very one with the famous "Rimbaud eyes" photo of the poet Dee Dee says inspired her to write the song she sang later that eve. Nice tie-in!

This is a very cool band. i like this video but they are better live. Very cool song, Rimbaud, of course, deserves the attention. I like how they used bits of his poem "The Drunken Boat". Good to hear that is still inspiring us. I put bits of that poem and a couple other Rimbaud pieces to music too, ( i know it is not quite to so great an effect as the dd girls version). I will paste the link to my version of Druken Boat, not sure if it will work though..... Rimbaud Drunken Boat

I think of punk, goth princess, la style. Adding Rimbaud, a touch of the 60s art rock. Love this band!

Dum Dum Girls circa 1988, stunning video.

This song and video is truly mesmerizing! I can't seem to get it out of my head and for some reason I want to put it on infinite repeat!

Well, congrats to anyone who ever do not discover this amazing band. Sorry for them. But, there she goes and, believe me, the best I have ever heard in years. Long life to them, and sorry for my English if it is not accurate.

Darn - I only have *Baudelaire* eyes.

outstanding song from an album with some absolutely beautiful tunes.You just don't hear much of this guitar based, highly melodic music anymore.Damn shame! Love the entire album-total ear candy!

DDG was so underrated. Their first album is an indie classic in my opinion.

You got rimbaud eyes You got rimbaud eyes You got! Truly, I have wept too much In the dawns are heart breakers Every moon is atrocious, every sun bitter Sharp love has swollen me up! You got rimbaud eyes You got rimbaud eyes You got rimbaud eyes You got rimbaud eyes You got! I can no more Bathed in your languors O waves, sail in your wake I can no more I can no more Bathed in your languors O waves, sail in your wake You got rimbaud eyes You got rimbaud eyes You got rimbaud eyes You got rimbaud eyes You got! No I, a boat lost on the blue Am hurled by hurricanes Into bird-less ether Into forever blue-into you You got rimbaud eyes You got rimbaud eyes You got rimbaud eyes You got rimbaud eyes You got!

I can't believe bi discovered them about 10 mins a go fucking love them fucken. Cool band ❤😂 Sydney Australia 29/5/2023

Takes me back to the 80s with Blondie and the New Wave style.

The dissonance is amazing ,nothing is real but that either filled beat. Dreamy.Empty. Love it.

amazing love it. ...beautiful haunting voice and music

Is it just me or does this amazing song remind me of a cross between "R.E.M." & "The B 52's"?

What a great song! What a great band! 👍

upon the first listen ( a bit ago ) before knowing the song title, i thought she said Bimbo Eyes. then i googled Rimbaud. I love the Dum Dum Girls, have all their albums and i reeeeeally love the song and the feel of the video.

the street illustration looks a bit too cheesy to me, but the effects are really nice! from the beginning reminded me of a Lush video

Guitar Hero Live Baby ! Hands Up !

I absolutely adore the one with the sad eyes. ❤

Beautiful girl, great girls band

Obsessed with this song.

before surfing,I listen to this song. I like it

Love Dum Dum Girls, they have a great sound

Great song and beautiful promo 😎⭐️

JESUS CHRIST, this might be one of the prettiest videos I have ever seen. Seriously, this is beyond beautiful. Great style

Thank you, Guitar Hero Live, for giving me this song.

That summer when they played prospect park in brooklyn, ny was FIRE. Bars were cool, but meeting up with friends at the parks or at someone's place was just as fun too.

The lyrics are just fantastic... deep, beautiful, and I like this sailor's tendency.

To me the perfect pop song!

Miss these gals 💞

I have bought two albums on CD from this great girlie band.

Great band. Wonder if they got the name from the Talk Talk classic The Dum Dum Girl?

When I first heard this I thought it was Bimbo Eyes

1:01 I love that shot of Dee Dee stationary walking down the street, such a simple effect that's so fun and entrancing

ok maybe im crazy, but I swear that when this song first came out, there was another music video, a black and white film short that appeared to be set in France that showed the day-to-day life of a young upstart the criminal underworld (shows him doing heists on motorcycles and collecting debts etc.) Does this sound familiar to anybody? im trying to track down that video and I cannot find it for the life of me. maybe im nuts and it was a video for a different song, but im certain it was this one! please help people!

beautiful colors. unusual

I feel this would have been a huge hit in the 80's or 90's... Esp in Australia...

Did any of you catch the reference to one of Rimbaud's poems about a boat? It's in the bridge of the song.

This shit is amazing what's the style of music they are playing ?

Excellent-

very catchy music 🤗🤗

This song is iconic

Oh, Video!

Got into them only last week, bought Too True & listened through it about twice . . . and then suddenly today this song takes over my brain from out of nowhere. Her secret weapon must be one that works via delayed reaction.

Suze Rotolo introduced Bob Dylan to the works of Rimbaud: "I came across one of his letters called 'Je est un autre,' which translates into "I is someone else." When I read those words the bells went off. It made perfect sense. I wished someone would have mentioned that to me earlier." Bob Dylan: "Chronicles, vol 1."

Is this a Don Henley cover?

V.k.owns tune called death itune to buy...youtube to leston to

#25 on the first week of Oh My Alternative's Top 25 new Alternative songs!

This is now my favourite song. I can't get it out of my head. It sounds like she sings you got bimbo eyes. It's a shame that they no longer play as a group anymore.

AWESOME!!!

What is that white guitar?

Video reminds me of Lush

I only discovered the band from bird box I so love the sound the sound of this track reminds me a bit of Blondie..

Great future👍

Yes, I know it's been remarked on before, but ... I'm sure everyone who mispronounces Rimbaud's name would make no mistake in naming Sylvester Stallone's hyperbolised hero.

Grreatest!💝💝💝💝💝

Reminds me a bit of She Sells Sanctuary by The Cult

first bedroom eyes than this. awesome

Would someone please send me a link about their first video. This wasn't the first one. The first had a video about some fighters. They are a great band but the original video was different. Otherwise I can't respect them for dropping the first video that got them on the internet. Otherwise it just seems more of a corporate band exposed to make money off some chick with good looks and a hook song.

What in the low budge hell? I have no words.. lol

Great band, really enjoyed their music..Hate the fact that this, along with many other records have this compressed "brick wall" of sound.. Would rather hear them playing live in a club...

Great!

DDG + TAMARYN = UNSTOPPABLE

Yes.

How about "Verlaine" eyes??

Great!!!

Nice one !

My fav DDG song.

Toy viendo el clip en el canal VH1

This song sounds very 80's.

awesome...take notes HAIM;)

My 15-year old brother made a bunch of house tracks.Can you please listen to them? He doesn't believe in himself anymore and this is my way of changing that.Please help out...

Too True To Be Good

Nice song. Shame they couldn't have included a picture of Rimbaud in the video considering it is inspired by him.

like this song

Very cool.:)

Arthur Rimbaud

Dang mommy.❤

To date

what is mean rimbaud ????

A most capable line-up, but, it’s not the same without Bambi. How could it be?

Good song, beautiful video, visuals are just off though. The tempo is way faster than those slow motion graphics. It throws the whole thing off

Sexiest girl rock band I ever seen!... + they rock

U got..... bimbo eyyyyyess.... oh yeah u got bimbo eyyyyyyyyess. YEAH BIMBO EYES.

Jem & The Holograms out takes XD

At the start of the vid the singer loox like Synergy from "Jem"

Rhythm track so key here yet so little drummer on the video...

Pretty. Pretty. Pretty. Pretty. Pretty.

She pronounces Rimbaud wrong, which is fairly embarrassing. It's not RIMbaud, like the rims of a car, or a rim job. It's French. It's closer to RAMbaud, like a Ram or ramming into something, but more accurately in between RAMbaud and REMbaud, in the French pronunciation. There's even a RU-vid video for it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pqu43oqLi20.html

Dee Dee's pretty, but the rest of the band are cute too.

Malia is so fine!! 😍

Great song, but why do they articulate the "d" in Rimbaud?

wow!
