Always liked this (remember it from my very early days at RP), but 5 plays in the last month is starting to make it sound a bit tired...

I think of this and many other songs similarly—I'll always recognized them for having heard them here more than a few times, but won't necessarily buy them (tho' I did get "Wounded"). This is much like today hearing Syndicate of Sound's "Little Girl" or The American Breed's "Bend Me, Shape Me," both of which I loved as a teen but never bothered to buy.

Agreed! And while I can still enjoy those other songs - this one? Not so much.

Holy crap, you're right! Well, at least the title track of that album—a lot of the rest of it sounds like a mix of "Itchycoo Park" goofiness and British dance hall music; next door neighbors to the Dave Clark Five.

Colloquial for "gibt es". Can't say where in Germany this comes from, though. My guess would be Ruhrpott.

I think it's the way they open and close the guitar distortion. That, along with a steady beat and really cooool vocals, makes this song a hit with me.

The last post comparing this to My Bloody Valentine is from two years ago, so I'll re-iterate: Sounds a lot like My Bloody Valentine. Minus the vocals, it could almost be taken from Loveless (almost!).

Wow.  I just heard new music from Alannah Myles, and it knocked me out of my socks. GOOD stuff - it would fit perfectly here. I just love High Violets. But I adore Alannah Myles. Don't base your musical critique on "Black Velvet," because her new music transcends it (is that even possible?)

I hope this link works... Weapons
