Is this channelling the 80s bigtime, or what? I was surprised to see a 2011 release date for this song. Does anyone know who the French guy is who's been sampled in the background?

I believe it is Jean Marais, from the 1946 movie "La Belle et la Bête" (Beauty and the Beast) by Jean Cocteau.

I saw PM in a club last Dec. This is the song he opened with. Liked it even better live, or maybe just louder, anyways good song to open with.

Wait a minute: NIN opened for Peter Murphy?!?!? That's an unlikely pairing.

It happens.

The most unlikely (IMHO) was Hendrix opening for The Monkeys back in the day. A friend's brother used to have a bootleg of their Ottawa show.

(and reading my mind, Bill starts playing "The Wind Cries Mary")

Best of the 1980's. Got that arty, intellectual zing.

And speaking of best of the '80s, RP should do a special feature weekly show on the '80s, with all those songs that may not work very well on their own, like "Der Kommisar".

"Der Kommisar" works just fine on its own.

Peter Murphy, I now need to see bela lugosi's dead on youtube again, sums up the extraordinary 80's vibe and pulse I feel, just hearing his name man.
That portrait sketch is cool too
(also, super retch during that paul mccartney drivel RP just played, this helped clear the air after that crap, gracias)

Late 80's NYC - saw Peter Murphy open for the Church - he killed it. One year later saw Nine Inch Nails open for Peter Murphy - they killed it. Just goes to show ya, never discount that opening act.

I miss the days of making everybody listen to your music
Big Speakers, big Amps, try to shake the house down.
Used to have my mom yelling to turn it down......
now it's my kids...
Sigh

iPods have really killed the whole industry

It is quiet though

Peter Murphy. Yowza. I used to turn all the lights off, light candles and incense, and do my stretches to "Cuts You Up." He's kinda awesome.

Aha! My favourite side of the 80´s music: Bauhaus, The Cure, Joy Division, Talking Heads, DM, The Fall, Divo, etc. The ugly side of the 80´s music: Poison, Cinderella, Skid Row, etc. P. Murphy isn`t a big hair musician, he´s an avant garde icon...


Well put and agreed!

Any song played after that horrible Tom Waits crap should get a 10 just by comparison.
