Dance, Richard, dance!

Posted over 4 years ago
I know, I know, I just finished posting my fawning paean to one Psychedelic Furs song. I was watching this video, and it struck me so funny. How totally awesome are Richard Butler's dance/mime moves here? Is *this* what they meant by Mirror Moves?!?I'm not hating on the song, mind, but this album starts the steep downhill slope that ends at their egregious self-cover of "Pretty In Pink".Well, we all have our mis-steps. Carry on.

    Dale says I'd like to think he was on a platform that spun during the chorus, but you never know. This is THE Richard Butler we're talking about. Maybe he's got super-powers.

    ZenPop says I love the Psych Furs!... but that video... yeesh... there's some good tunes on that album..."Heaven," "High Wire Days" "The Ghost in You," "Here Come Cowboys" and "Alice's House" are all pretty good... not crazy about the rest, though.... Definitely a step back from previous work...

    Dale says Sorry sweetie, I was talking to ZenPop, but since he's new, I have to express those things. With you, it's implied.

    Dale says Just so there's no confusion: *Lizzie*: Yup, happens all the time. Sorry for the confusion. *Jenny*: I bet there's a track that I've not heard that you could rave over. Plenty of Furs-love still available. I'm not sayin' yr next post should be about them, I'm just sayin'.

    Mike the Knife says El Pretentioso. But I'm with ZenPop. That album is masterful - chock fulla goods. Like, the guitar solo on "Here Come Cowboys" is a complete brain-fryer, pulse-racingly awesome. Think I'll point and click right now...
