I would go even further and say if I had my way they would be 'The Strangled' First, "unmelodious" is not a word. Second, this song is a masterpiece of clever melody and unusual timing. It's lyrics are evocative, scary and unsettling, it's orchestration is beyond clever...come on a harpsichord?...what's not to like? |
SoundThinker Jun 03, 2013 - 14:23 | The Stranglers are ON TOUR right now!!! This is from two nights ago in Canada! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RmDtFupE34&feature=player_detailpage |

bb_matt May 09, 2013 - 08:58 | Only 7.9? This is godlike! - it's right up there with the best of the classics. |

msymmes May 02, 2013 - 18:53 | Not sure why I haven't given this an EIGHT. I think it's because I like 'Always The Sun" and "Skin Deep" even more than this classic. |

kojiroh Jan 02, 2013 - 08:20 | This is mesmerizing. I just can't turn it off no matter how disturbed I get because of the fact that it's an ode to heroin. |

Hasan Dec 28, 2012 - 13:25 | I just can't help it. When I hear this song I can't stop myself thinking of "Brown 25" from that hysterical 1974 movie "The Groove Tube" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=008BPUdQ1XA |
hidey Nov 25, 2012 - 11:04 | YES!! Play the original - NOT the insipid cover version by I-can't-remember-who! Colossal and distinctive |
