Siouxsie And The Banshees - Dazzle 

Abso-phukin-lutely!!!

@@Bexks badumtss

Im curious what does it mean?

​@@devinallen4708it's the imagery. Isn't it brilliant?

I agree

Alexis Arrizon yup she really is Fabulous 🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥💪💪💪

I was only a very young child but I remember women doing their hair and dressing up like her in 80's! They were all over. It takes me back whenever I see her performing although I was only vaguely aware of it all at the time! : )

Egyptian

those bejeweled gloves!

Right? Very surprising it's not on there.

exactly!

It’s my first SatB song. And nothing tops this one.

AGREED. My favorite of theirs.

Damn right

IN A BETTER PLACE

@@aub6120 🤣🤣🤣

​@@aub6120country fan spotted

​@@aub6120 Sure...

Literally rock n roll was invented in the americas lol

Elena Bussotti that is such a beautiful memory to share - one that resonates with me!

All the best to you & yours. I hope to spend the rest of my life with angel too. My Zack. Wedding or no. :D

MAGIC

I read that as "...fall in love with my first husband" lol idk why

Diva

I videoed onto VHS this song back in 1984☺️

👍👍There are tons of great songs of hers to enjoy

Better late than never. Just make sure to return to it whenever you need some inspiration or a burst of energy (this came out my senior year of high school/freshman year of college and I listened to the music for exactly that). 💖

Don't feel bad about it. I knew "Dazzle" as, just a song, way before seeing the video, myself. Besides, if you haven't seen it for a long enough time, then it's brand knew again -- or -- at our age, it could be early onset Alzheimers. In that case, all the "old Goth music" becomes brand new again... !!! That would mean the adventure starts all over again, so is that such a bed thing?

Tbf, many of us didn't have access to videos back in the day; not really our fault! Most of the music I loved & bought & danced to, I'm only seeing the videos for the 1st time with the miracle of RU-vid, & I LIKE it! 😁

Yes, she is amazing!

@@Darkdementia65 Sorry but live nowadays past it vocally cigs!!

@@gmantramp404 I agree and it's such a shame. Still great to listen to all her old stuff though x

@@Darkdementia65 👍🤘🤘

since 2017 and forever apparently

I only got to enjoy the 80s for 6 months :(

After 83 only the alternative 80s were any good...

@@dream-67 In my opinion, pop new wave was good until 1984. But surely everything changed in 1985, when Gorbachev came to power and world tension began to loosen. That is why Western musicians (new and some of the old ones) breathed a sigh of relief and stopped rebelling, and focused on simple, more often cheerful and funny topics.

Oh, there was ample crap in the 80’s. Artists like Siouxsie Sioux gave unexpected glimmers of hope from the shadows.

The 80s, like every decade, were varied, it had tons of great alternative music, tons of innovation in more experimental and extreme music even, but on the other hand there were lots of shitty pop stuff that aged like crap. Either way, it is probably my favourite decade for music, those who hate on it probably only listened to the most mainstream shit from that time.

I want you.

Everything about Siouxsie is fascinating. I love her. In 78 I had a huge poster of her. I wanted to wake up with her every day.

I believe the description you’re looking for is intoxicating 😍

Haunting voice perfect for punk music

Her voice has always been great but it REALLY shines on Hyaena and Tinderbox. On those two albums in particular, her vocals are absolutely beautiful

I understand this.

Me too. It is such an evocative and powerful song. ✨🖤

Makes me feel human

And self tought too

Not by me he isn't. Still rate him as one of the best skinsmen ever

Heavy influence on me as a drummer

Yes. Yes is is. 👌💯🥁

The Hollywood palladium…

I saw them in San Francisco, I was in shock that I was actually there just feet from her...

🙋⚡✨

In the 80's first heard it on the radio, had to find out "WOW - who is THAT?"

Reminiscent of teen angst!

Very good comment. Jah herb Jah Jerry Jah love Jah rastafari Tucson Arizona Sonoran desert 🏜🇮🇸🇯🇲🇺🇸🇲🇿🇸🇪🇬🇭🎃🌍🍄🍄🥕🍄🌽🍄🍌🥯🍒🥯🍑🍄🍆🥯🫒🍄🥒🍄🍇🍄🌶🍄🍄🍄🍄🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵

"Hunting" instead of "haunting"... an appropriate slipup

she was a Queen

Stunning, even today.

@@sabrazafarano9651 yas kween

That bass line is pretty dark, lol

I want to thank Beth Harris, Beth Barrington and 6 other Beths who introduced me to this band in the 1987.

That's so true. So many videos I missed .. oh well better late than never.

i know it wasnt on the compilation tapes dammit

where have you ppl been?

same here

I'd say the former; since the beginning of the 2000's, the best I've heard is basically "Okay, well that wasn't so horrifying" or "Okay, I think I can get behind this", but hardly anything makes me say "Whoa! Who's THIS?" . When I DO hear something that makes me react "Whoa! Who's THIS?", it turns out to be something from before the 2000's .... or a band whose first album was in the 90's and can still make something actually decent in the 2000's.

You know? That magic is only unique to your era and when i was about 15 in 2000. I discovered those same bands and the feeling was magical and dreamy. So it carries on. Not a lot of kids were into what I was into. So, I felt nostalgic for an era I never really truly lived. I started dressing accordingly and learned a lot about music and fashion and just so much! I guess you can say it still exists in young people over the years. It will never die. I also became a huge Depeche Mode fan and of course fell in love with them. I still wear my jacket that I spray painted Siouxsie's eyes on the back. ;-)

NO, todays music is terrible. Most kids today listen to a mix of music from now back to the 80s' In the 80's we listened to just ,music from the 80's and 70's, our generation.

@@thecocktailian2091 It really is. I learned so much about great music from listening to music of your era. Blancmange?? Like nothing as unique as that exists in any way today!

@scottsmith I absolutely agree. Those were the good old days when music was real MUSIC. Today's stuff is terrible. We were the lucky ones to grow up in the 80's.

🙋✨⚡

51 as well...listened to Hyæna today on vinyl that I've had since a teen...splendid stuff!

@@hrhginger5489 Their run from "Juju" up to "Peepshow" was flawless.

Best lyrics yet!!!

I hate to admit this, but I used to shoot up so my high started with those lyrics. Those days are over, but listening to Siouxsie will never be over

@@colleendito2046 we are proud of you

Siouxie's lyrics have such a visually descriptive appeal, so much so, you don't even need the video, if your imagination can make all the visuals you'll ever need.

I agree! 🤘🏻❤🎵🎶

We still exist, we’re just hiding in the shadows.

@@mortchen5494 Really Lmk where those shadows are, so I can have my 🖤💔🖤 be Dazzled.

🙋✨⚡

@@mortchen5494 Still waiting for you to come out of the shadows 😊🖤🙏

As another commenter said, "style"!

🙋✨⚡

She is pure Magic

Damn right! Along with Ann Wilson and Karen Carpenter! Oh, and of course Stevie Nicks... Lovely comment, see ya!

They're all pretty damn good.

Yep..we love them all😏💜💙💜💙💜💙💜💙💜💙💜💙(/-\)..

@S Frederici ..Yer nailed it in one tiny phrase my friend😃😁😊😆😉💜💙💜.. 👍(/-\)..

It's pretty impossible to find a Stand Alone. I have this issue with 99.9% of Cocteau Twins songs

I think I personally prefer Glamour Mix over this version

She’s on the Mt. Rushmore of female vocalists for sure

eu tbm

I was there!💎

So you should wish you were born in the early 70s then so you could enjoy the 80s.

Biggest difference was the number of bands available and how they were perceived . This band was considered extremely underground in 84 - I was considered a freak for loving this type of music . Another very prevalent thing was the Mystique , latter related to not having this overload of information where you have 1 million bands to choose from one click away - you would focus much more on things and plus , you had little idea how these things were done since you didn´t have the internet expaining you how you play the Bass in - a - week or how to master the latest version of Fruity Loops in 1 hour . Magical , that is how this sounded like ... life changing , we would copy what we saw , what we heard , yet , we knew each and every song on that album . Focus as opposed to the dispersion you have today . Having said this , even though very different epochs , I find this as fascinating and vibrant , just yesterday I was listening to Burial´s new- ish " Antidawn " EP and I was mesmerized by its passion/sound . A little nuance here , another one there ... at the core , nothing ever changes . Apologise if a " yes " or " no " type of question turned into a pretty boring and extensive rant 😂

@@jenniferaustin6471 exactly. So grateful to be a teen in the 80s and have punk, new wave, both and alternative shape me

I hate having to keep explaining this to kids, who weren't even a gleam in their daddy's eye when Ms.Ballion was strutting her stuff in the late 70s/early 80s - The Banshees disavowed the 'goth' label and had moved on from the darkness/doom/gloom/black schtick after they did 'Ju-Ju'.

@@eddiewillers1 And before goth, they where "punk" it doesn't matter that they moved to a new category.They where at their peak when they made Juju and where pioneers of that 'scene",whether they decided to "move on" at that point is irrelevant.The evidence was captured at the time, and will continue to be entertaining in that format.

There's an extended mix available - hope this helps ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TjuhqwG3C6w.html

In her movie Elvira Mistress of the Dark when she carries her suitcase into the Cozy Cot you can see a Dazzle Siouxsie sticker on her luggage.

KROQ!!! I grew up in Whittier during the 80's and 90's. Great radio station✌😁

@Shannon - Ha! Whittier! Yes. I just bought a house last year in neighboring Norwalk.

@Shannon - no I listen to Sirius XM radio. I still here Richard Blade, Jed The Fish, Rodney on the Rock.... it’s awesome!

KROQ... A space-time fold just opened in my mind.

@sounglasshydra - “KROQ Rock of the Eighties”, was that old classic TV commercial 😅👍🏼
