... have violent ends / And in their triumph die, like fire and powder / Which as they kiss consume. The sweetest honey is loathsome in his own deliciousness / and in the taste confounds the appetite. Therefore love moderately. Long love doth so." -- Friar Laurence.
This song will forever remind me of Larry Tee and Club Luxx @ 256 Grand Ave in Williamsburg. The hot pink and black zebra striped wallpaper are evoked every time I hear that synth arpeggio.
Back when Vice Magazine and hipster culture was actually cool instead of woke, with Gavin McInnes at the helm. Ironic detachment and snark ruled the day.
Keoki played this at his Sunday residency at Sapphire Lounge in the early 2000s. Was proud to be a part of the party & diversity. It was an extension of The Limelight Clubkid Scene...hence, Kenny Kenny, Sophia Lamar, Sophia Lamar, Astro Erle, Bejay Rose, Ryan McKnight, Chip Chip, Go-Go and lastly myself
This song eluded me for almost 20 years in both artist and song title. It just kept resurfacing every now and then, periodically, like a reverie. It took a show about human consciousness and self-exploration to finally give me the answer that I needed. Thank you, #Westworld.
For those of you who keep saying where is the original video this was the original Emerge video and it was made in 1999. The second video with them performing on the stage and his clothes get ripped off is the second version which is 2003. Sorry to disappoint you guys.
I remember listening to this on a bus to San Luis Obispo. I've heard it a million times since then but I've never thought of anything else, any of those times
For the better part of a decade, working on letting go of my past trauma and getting on with living, this song has often been my starting point. Hard resetting the path I was on started with Emerge. I do not need to emerge from nothing. I do not need to tear away. Also every time this is a remembrance to my first husband. We would drive to ikea and time the album so this this song would lead us in to parking and on our adventure. Thank you. Let art fit you where it fits
Heard this in a p-no video when I was just a wee lad. Damn near introduced me to electronic music. Here I am years later and still remember and love this track
I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS FUCKING TEN YEARS OLD. I used to watch this all the time back in the day!!! Still listen to them all the time on Spotify though.
I think I had this song on a mix compilation album when I was in high school...or something, I don't remember. I heard it on a show recently and it brought back weird memories I forgot how good it is and how much I loved this song.
Ah....Westworld it makes sense now. I was hanging with my little brother and his friends who are 10 years younger than me the other day. When they played this track I was like no way these kids should know about this. My old ass remembers this banger from when it came out when I was in my early 20s.
I was 19 when this was track was first released and it was a massive tuna fish!! Thank you Westworld for reconnecting with me to Fischerspooner and for the flashback of a younger me, without a care in the world, tearing up the d-floor with copious amounts of drugs in my system... Oh how life has changed lol!!
strange that i had some sort of obsession with the Hal 9000 and rogue ai stories when i first discovered this song and now years later westworld brings me back here
So I have the DVD single and this is on it but there is also a different video for this song. I may try and post it since it can't be found. The version on the DVD single is the one the clubs played not this one.
Why do I seem to remember that near the end of the music video, the lead performer male in full make-up gets his clothing vacuumed off and he is standing there in just his underwear, posing? Was it a different version of the video for this song, or am I thinking of a different '00s New York electronica group? EDIT: I got around to reading the other comments, with some mentioning how this is not the original. Glad to know I wasn't imagining things. Dailymotion has it
Emerge Fischerspooner Hi Huh-I Hyper Hyper-media-ocrity You don't need to Emerge from nothing You don't need to Tear away You don't need to Tear away Feels good Looks good Sounds good Looks good Feels good too Feels good too Feels good too (Uh-huh that's right) You don't need to Emerge from nothing You don't need to Tear away You don't need to Emerge from nothing You don't need to Tear away You don't need to Emerge from nothing You don't need to Tear away Look alive! You don't need to Emerge from nothing You don't need to Tear away You don't need to Emerge from nothing You don't need to Tear away
garfield ate a purse. and i love the fact that a lasagna-cat related comment on the video is in the top section. shows how many just searched for the song coz of it.
I've loved this song for 20yrs, but I'm only just now realizing the photographer is "Uncle" Terry *shudder* Seems like he worked with _everyone_ at some point. He was a prolific and (I have to admit) skilled/talented photographer. I had a chance to work with him waaaay back when. After looking at his work and talking to other gals, I turned it down. The shoot would have been well paid and high profile... I'm still glad I went with my gut. I wasn't gunning for a career in front of the camera (it was never going to happen!) but I know other people who were and couldn't refuse work 😐. BTW: I don't fault Fischerspooner for working with him. To a lot of people Terry was simply a professional photographer! For others, though, he was something else.
What I like most about these guys is the fact that they did it JUST to show that anyone could get into the biz, create hype, make a couple million and get out. It's all they had planned.
Nope. Not Westworld. That's not what brought me here. Just a flash memory from the past. I looked it up . A girl shared this song with me long ago before the internet took over the world. Intense music.
