Lush - For Love 

Love the bass guitar, and the depressed jingly, jangly guitar sound that is similar in the Pixies, The Cure and Bauhaus. Such a distinct hallmark of the late 80's early 90's.

Lush were one of the really great early 90's bands. Shoegazers !

The harmonies are so soothing and sound like angels

4AD is the best record label to exist. having introduced to us bands such as lush, cocteau twins, this mortal coil, bauhaus, ariel pink and many more. amazing

Some classic, sweet melodic pop. Lush were really underrated

Beauty in sadness. She’s got such a heavenly voice

I first heard this song yesterday and ive played it about 60 times.

Thank you, Lush. You made the world a better place.

That guitar and that harmony is literally how nostalgic sounds like

This whole album is a tear joking emotional roller coaster. Still hits my heart and waters my eyes after 30 years. It was so great to be 21 in 1991.

Pretty little girl, she shines Knowing she is young, she smiles Happy just to be a prize Happy just to see his smile Silly little girl, she tries Thinking she is good, and wise Doesn't recognise the lies Pouring from her lips, she sighs: This is so real, It's what I feel, I look in your eyes and lose myself Silly little girl denies Every understanding why Her face is full of sad surprise Every time she hears him cry: What do you feel When you're with me? I look in your eyes and see myself But there's no connection, Just his own reflection Isn't this the way you wanted me? (What do you mean?) In love with you (What do I feel?) Do anything (What do you mean?) For you She looked in his eyes to lose herself And when it falls apart, she cries Doesn't think to look inside She just covers up her eyes Doesn't see her own disguise And though she feels this sorrow, It will fade tomorrow She'll pretend that this was really love (What do you mean?) She'll make their fall (What did I feel?) Seem beautiful (What do you mean?) She won't remember this at all (What do you mean?) She won't recall (What did I feel?) The truth at all (What do you mean?) She wants to fall (What did I feel?) Again (What do you mean?)

Never heard of this amazing band. Thanks algorithm!

Drummer Chris Acland was definitely a Keith Moon Who fan. Can't believe it's been nearly 23 years since he passed, but the songs with his drumming will live forever.

I know the MIki usually gets all the buzz, but let's not forget Emma!

Such a lovely video for a lovely criminally underrated band. How can you not love them?

TAKE ME BACK TO THE 90s!!!!

This was the gateway drug for my 90's from 120 minutes. Love this band.

You really cant say youre a shoegaze fan without have a good bit of lush in your playlists 🤟

2022, 44 years old, I just discovered Curve and Lush today. I don't understand how it could have taken me so long. Happy I finally made it.

this sounds like something you'd hear twice on a lifetime. once accidentally from a radio on your teenage years and second from your children's playlist.

I love the beautiful cherry red Rickenbacker 340/12 that Miki plays in this. She didn't play it too often; usually she played a Gibson ES335-12 or Epiphone Riviera 12. I have a Rickenbacker 330/12, and it is my favorite guitar.

If there was ever a song and a video worthy of remastering, this is it. Thank you infinitely, 4AD.

My cousins were 15 years older and they always listened to rock bands so, it was something I learned from them. I didn't know most of the bands they loved but Lush was one as Throwing Muses and Pixies. I'm happy to remember how I used to live at 7, with this music nowadays.

Miki and Emma were total babes!

Incredible band! 💖

It was a decade when music deserved the name *MUSIC*

I had a deep crush on Emma back in the early 90s. To me Emma was the cutest alt pin up girl.

I was in love with Miki. My goodness she was gorgeous 😍 💕 💗

Periodically I just have to hear this song. Loved it from the time it first came out

pretty much the theme song of my loneliness and depression back in the 90s. still hits me right where I didn't want it to, but sometimes you have to pick at the old wounds, I guess

Such an underrated piece of media

Simple, clean music for a more simple time.

favourite song ever

My favourite Lush song.

Seeing this again makes me feel so old. Yet thrilled to go back to my years at UCB. A freshman at Berkeley .

The children of Cocteau Twins.😍👑🍁

Chris Acland, we miss you. R.I.P. you will never be forgotten.

wow this is weird just yesterday i was looking for this video and couldn't find it now it is uploaded by 4AD itself

Thank you, Mr. Guthrie ;-)

Escuché está belleza de himno al espíritu hace 30 años y lo grabe de la radio a un casete . Perdí el casete y perdí el nombre del grupo y la canción, lo busque millones de veces y no encontré, nunca más volví a escuchar esta canción hasta que de casualidad un amigo lo puso hoy y lloré de la emoción. Cómo amo está canción , es nostalgia pura , es magia pura está canción himno de toda la vida . Sin miedo a equivocarme diría que es la canción más linda de todas ❤️! Gracias Lush de todo corazón , desde Perú .

One of the best songs ever made

I vividly recall first time seeing For Love on 120 Minutes '91/'92 and being absolutely enthralled by the voice, look, and of course hair of Miki. Bought the cassette as soon as I could!

Who the hell is down-voting Lush? What is wrong with you?? Just keep these video releases coming please - had no money in the early 90's but I did have Lush and lots of fun.

"For Love"... one of my all time best singles from one of my Top 10 all time bands Lush 😍

Emma Anderson makes the group! She is an excellent singer!

Since day 1, when I heard this song back in the 90s,,still gives me goosebumps. Hauntingly beautiful

This was so ahead of its time. Sounds almost exactly like the popular indie bands right now

Emma forever ❤️️

I love this song

LYRICS: 😃👍✨ Pretty little girl, she shines Knowing she is young, she smiles Happy just to be a prize Happy just to see his smile Silly little girl, she tries Thinking she is good, and wise Doesn't recognise the lies Pouring from her lips, she sighs: This is so real, It's what I feel, I look in your eyes and lose myself Silly little girl denies Every understanding why Her face is full of sad surprise Every time she hears him cry: What do you feel When you're with me?

I love the way the song starts, this song is so amazing and no ones knows about it

Early 1990s. Suddenly I'm old. Shopping for CDs at HMV used to be one of the stops of going into town. The past never looked better than it does today.

Keep posting these classic 4AD videos. 👍🏻

So aggressively obsessed with this song

It doesn't matter whether it was here stateside 1992 on Dennis Miller's show or on global watch 2021 broadcasting on a 24/7 basis, the fact remains that For Love is in my Top 5 of all time. It is one of the best of all time. One of the most hauntingly beautiful and exquisitely mesmerizing videos in the history of recorded music.

Wow. 120 Minute classic! Miki....so gorgeous!

This song was on a CD that came with the first Sega CD release. I fell in love.

I'm just remembering how much in love I was with Emma Anderson and Miki Berenyi . My God they were Beautiful ❤

One of my favourite female sang songs!

One of my favorite bands from the 90's. I feel very fortunate to have seen them live in Sept 1996 and then again in Sept 2016 for their reunion tour.

Really takes me back to the early 90's but still one of my favorite songs. Lush was insanely underrated.

Such a sweet Pisces connection....love

This song was my very first introduction to Indie Rock/Alternative Rock from waaaay back in the day, back in the early 90s. I got addicted to this particular song first time I heard it.

Beautifull music from a beautifull band. My cute Miki B.

The Smiths are my all-time favourite band. And I listened to them in real time. For some reason I never ran across Lush back in the 90's. But I'm sure glad I have now. I love this.

Miki was so beautiful

Man....I had the biggest crush on Miki back then. I bought Gala the first weekend I arrived at college in 1990 as a freshman. I was and still am a huge fan.

my bloody valentine vibes

PERFECT 10!!

Miki’s voice is heavenly

I remember hearing this song on alternative radio as a kid, but it was literally just today that I found out its name!

Pretty melody ,excellent vocal.

the video uses the single/ep BAD2001 release of the song; remixed by Mark Freegard and Lush - the drums on this version were re-recorded from the version on "Spooky" - the bass appears to have less flange on it also .

Saw them on a double bill with Ride Easter weekend 1991 in Chicago and me & my friend were Tripping 🙃🤘❤️👾 it was a beautiful evening!

This was the only Lush song I knew until RU-vid came along. I regret I didn't seek out their albums back in the day.

esta es una de las canciones más bonitas que he escuchado, que increíble es Lush

i love this song it just feels like ive known it for years;;

brutal yet beautiful

A superb pop song from a great band. Almost perfect. Odd then that Lush didn't have stellar success. There were so many other fantastic bands going then, maybe that's why.

angelic

Just heard this song for the first time on 'MTV Classic' a few days ago! I've been hooked ever since! ❤️🕺

i love this song so much

🎶Those were the days🎶---"Bravo LUSH"🎶🌹❤🇺🇸

this song is so so good

Phil rocking the Squier!

Lush, better than the bath bomb company

I love Lush so much😭

For me this was pop's second zenith...I discovered Lush at the same time I first heard The Ocean Blue via the TBS series "New Alternative Express" in February 1992. I was in awe, instantly. I still feel the same goosebumps more than a quarter of a century later.

this is too good it makes me shiver

For Love.

We need more people like Miki.

Lovely song beautiful harmonies ❤️🥰

Shoegaze needs to come back

Gorgeous music band meant a lot to my life - wish in the comeback in 2016 they had made an album also

Berenyi was my number one crush when I was 21! I was obsessed with her and spent many a night either high or drunk listening to Lush. Happier times.

Miki is so beautiful

Heard it last year, forgot the name, found it this year ❤

The aesthetic of the song and the video is so intoxicating. I wanna go there on a vacation

Thank you * Lush * and Thank you * 4AD * for posting. This is Absolutely Beautiful. May GOD Bless you all. Chris ( RIP). Cheers

Chris rest in peace 🙏💔😇
