Lyrics. :) must write a letter to you I must make myself clear It is spot on time, right on cue I am a clam, somebody said to me It's obscene, there must be a motive behind It's obscure. there must be someone behind A muscovite mosquito, a muscovite mosquito A muscovite mosquito, a muscovite mosquito A vivid image anyway Someone said, you're a clam, Consider this ! Mmm, listen oh, listen to me, you're far A thousand miles away from here I am here, I am here in this ooze through country Trampled down by mega people A dispute will never end A retrospection ,it sounds obscene A disconnection, A final balance sheet for muscovite mosquito For muscovite mosquito For muscovite mosquito, it sound obscene It sound so obscure, for muscovite mosquito My final balance sheet is gone...... for Muscovite mosquito, muscovite mosquito It's spot on time, right on cue You missed the chance, somebody vexedly said It's obscene, there must be motives behind It's obscure, there must be someone behind
One of the most greatest COX's songs. I loved this track and the video since the first listening. The youngest Ronny was a dark star and this 4AD's movie style is taken from the compilation cd+video "Lonely is an Eyesore". A must!
Everyone has a favorite Clan of Xymox song --- Muscoviet Musquito is mine. After "Lonely is an Eyesore" was distributed by 4AD, I had to add this to my collection. This was when Goth's had serious hair, shameless attitudes, and "real" music collections sitting at home.
Whenever I think of these guys , this is the one song that always comes to mind first for me no doubt..but of course , I'd say that about all of their songs I am sure. They were consistent in what their music was at this point and I love it ! When I play these songs, I know what I am getting and love every second of it.
Saw these guys in concert, back in the day. They were amazing! And Ronny was so sweet. He looked at the crowd and said, "It looks like a million people out there!" 😍
I went to a concert of to Toulouse (France) in 1992 it was brilliant in this period they were on the label 4 AD with cocteau twins, this mortal coil Thank you for this video
They've been one of my favorite bands since the early 80's. Every 4AD fan should have "Lonely Is An Eyesore" since it's a 4AD compilation album. I have the original import, but it's available now as a domestic reissue, IIRC.
I used to sneak up to see 120 minutes on Sunday night (a "school" night) and make sure the VHS tape started. Cocteau Twins, Lush, Cure, The Smiths, Clan of Xymox, and more. I loved that show.
LOL why do I love this song? Rewind to fall of 1990: "Sandford god dammit, don't put crap like this on anymore when I'm tripping, it will stick with me for twenty years." Must be the acoustic guitar rhythm. Thank you for posting!
Best Dutch band ever...and on 4AD...sjees...in that time it was a compliment to play on this label...love it....PS Robert Smith is somebody else...with there own good music but never played at 4AD...says enough (i think)xxx Autodafeh242, Amsterdam
@carpenoctem66 since never! I remember "120 minutes" when they showed the best bands (at least the ones I liked) life is sad for music, which is life, which means life is sad. How can we make life happy again?
Finally I know who the artist is behind this song! I have a CD compilation from a German gothic clothing company called X-Trax. I love this song along with the rest of the compilation. I just can't believe it took 15 years for me to figure it out. (I lost the jewel case or it would not have been a mystery. ) 🦇🕸️💀
it's amazing how internet grants access to all those vintage music videos...i love it
CZcams is a godsend in that respect.
Esta es una de las canciones q deje grabadas en mis viejos casets en Lima... hacia años que no la escuchaba!!
Thanks!
Lyrics. :)
must write a letter to you
I must make myself clear
It is spot on time, right on cue
I am a clam, somebody said to me
It's obscene, there must be a motive behind
It's obscure. there must be someone behind
A muscovite mosquito, a muscovite mosquito
A muscovite mosquito, a muscovite mosquito
A vivid image anyway
Someone said, you're a clam,
Consider this !
Mmm, listen oh, listen to me, you're far
A thousand miles away from here
I am here, I am here in this ooze through country
Trampled down by mega people
A dispute will never end
A retrospection ,it sounds obscene
A disconnection,
A final balance sheet for muscovite mosquito
For muscovite mosquito
For muscovite mosquito, it sound obscene
It sound so obscure, for muscovite mosquito
My final balance sheet is gone...... for
Muscovite mosquito, muscovite mosquito
It's spot on time, right on cue
You missed the chance, somebody vexedly said
It's obscene, there must be motives behind
It's obscure, there must be someone behind
One of the most greatest COX's songs.
I loved this track and the video since the first listening.
The youngest Ronny was a dark star and this 4AD's movie style is taken from the compilation cd+video "Lonely is an Eyesore".
A must!
The original line up COX is one of my all time favorite bands...This song is ingenious.
Everyone has a favorite Clan of Xymox song --- Muscoviet Musquito is mine. After "Lonely is an Eyesore" was distributed by 4AD, I had to add this to my collection. This was when Goth's had serious hair, shameless attitudes, and "real" music collections sitting at home.
That CD is a keeper
Those were THE DAYS!!
The 80's, the best decade.
@Jean-Pierre34 It was best because more people were awake and seeing the horror.
Xymox is a great band, I listen this almost everyday. OMG!!! What a beautiful song...❤
Whenever I think of these guys , this is the one song that always comes to mind first for me no doubt..but of course , I'd say that about all of their songs I am sure. They were consistent in what their music was at this point and I love it ! When I play these songs, I know what I am getting and love every second of it.
Obsession is the one for me
Saw these guys in concert, back in the day. They were amazing! And Ronny was so sweet. He looked at the crowd and said, "It looks like a million people out there!" 😍
I saw them with MOEV!
@@kelleyjackson5005 Same here, at One Step Beyond in Santa Clara. That was my first time seeing them.
One of the best COX's songs of ever.
I can’t stop listening to their music !!! Listening to goth music feels sooo deeply spiritual. I’m 22 and i think this will last my whole life
Check out Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Cure (obviously! 😊) and The Sisters of Mercy. You won't be disappointed. 😊
check my mixes
link on my page
oh the memories...this was the song that got me into Clan and other dark bands :')
This song creates such a powerful goth atmosphere, amazing!
I AGREE! MASTERPIECE
His hair is out of this world
Nope
Romantycy muzyki rockowej w czystej postaci !
I've always loved this song!
Check out the other version that I have of this song :)
I hear this great song every saturday evening in the 80"s, in our Disco Roxy in Rheine. 😍 Greatings from Germany ❤️
Thank you WCVT-FM in Towson, maryland USA. the early 80's rock!
Me encanta esta canción
I went to a concert of to Toulouse (France) in 1992 it was brilliant in this period they were on the label 4 AD with cocteau twins, this mortal coil
Thank you for this video
4AD's Lonely is an Eyesore, anyone?
Fenway Fan yes!!! Ive gotta go digging for that now in my corner of Boston!
i got this lp, a compil of 4Ad bands . Great. if i remenmber, Cocteaux Twins, Wolfgang Press, Tuxedomoon, DCD,
absolutely. I still remember the specific VHS tape we ordered from the record store. Turned me on to good bands exponentially. : )
Yes! One of the best compilations ever! I still have the ltd album & VHS.
i wanted the comp only for that C.O.X. track.. i'm sure that the track is available elsewhere now, just a matter of tracking down a physical copy.
I've been listening to it for years and I can't get tired
I dont regret living my 20s currently as a goth, this music gives me life and i feel complete
They've been one of my favorite bands since the early 80's. Every 4AD fan should have "Lonely Is An Eyesore" since it's a 4AD compilation album. I have the original import, but it's available now as a domestic reissue, IIRC.
I used to play that album on my college radio show.
@@gojump7 I MISS THOSE COLLEGE RADIO STATIONS FROM THE 90’S, THE BEST😁👍
One of the absolute best

Amazing band ! Greetings from Serbia !
I used to sneak up to see 120 minutes on Sunday night (a "school" night) and make sure the VHS tape started. Cocteau Twins, Lush, Cure, The Smiths, Clan of Xymox, and more. I loved that show.

Xymox forever an underrated band
No Human can Drown
Allays one of my Fav's from the 80's !!
I have always loved this song. It's like the Gothic Rock version of Autobahn by Kraftwerk.
True alternative music 🥳🥳🎶🎶🎶🔥🔥🔥
...and a very well directed video...the carousel is absolutely ravishing...
7 years ago I listen this song for the first time exactly with this video.
By far their most effective and affective song for me.
SPK followers ... truly amazed for someone post this video ty :)
I'm kinda obsessed with this video... ♥
Seing them live tomorrow!!! I'm psyched!
I feel like the first time i heard this
One of the best in the 80s...❤
Voice of the 80s great...
Excelente canción.
Se ve que de este vocalista y Robert Smith, tomaron la imagen para Saúl Hernández de Caifanes en 1987.
Saludos :)
I saw them at Helter Skelter in Hollywood California. They were amazing!
Me encanta!!
Hace mucho no escuchaba esta cancion...
Muy Buena !
absolute classic m8
Yay on my way to Clan of Xymox show tonight los Angeles ☺
LOL why do I love this song? Rewind to fall of 1990: "Sandford god dammit, don't put crap like this on anymore when I'm tripping, it will stick with me for twenty years." Must be the acoustic guitar rhythm.
Thank you for posting!
never get tired of playing this for more than 2 decades now!! better than S.E.X!!
They were just excellent…!!!🥳🥰👍👍👍
I saw this live in 1989 in Washington D.C. 💗
Yes, MTV use to have a program in the early 90's called 120 min. and they played "alternative" or non-mainstream music.
I remember going to the music store and buying anything with a 4AD label...we knew it was going to be "our" music!
The sounds different...
The Best/ Great great.......
Iove this band...
Lovely song
WUOOOWW!!!, HERMOOOSO.
One of my Favorites
Amazing
clan of xymox, een bammetje met kaas, echt lekker oud hollandsch genieten!!
Best Dutch band ever...and on 4AD...sjees...in that time it was a compliment to play on this label...love it....PS Robert Smith is somebody else...with there own good music but never played at 4AD...says enough (i think)xxx Autodafeh242, Amsterdam
The Legendary Pink Dots are another fab Dutch band.

Obscure and dark is the way that I apreciate this master piece, it reminds me the first years when I was 6 in 1986.
brilliant!!!
I love their music!❤️🖤
Can't wait to see them November 14, 2018.
In my opinion, it's the best COX's track from their archives!
Lonely is an eyesore
First two ones 4ad awesome
Bzzzzzzzzzzzz splat! Got the little bugger.
I MUST EAT A MOSQUITO, I MUST MAKE MYSELF CLEAR
This vid makes me remember: "House of love", "Sisters of Mercy", "The Chameleons"
"Blackadder"... Where the h*** did that last association come from.
It was another time, another world. Different music, different words, think
Em homenagem a banda que fez parte da minha adolescência coloquei o nome de louise na minha filha ❤❤❤❤
🖤
I love the hair😚😍
very fucking good song. I love all 4AD music
❤
Why does the beginning of this vaguely remind me of a slowed down version of Berlin's "Metro"?
Or Trans Europe Express.
Is a patern
This was the song that got me into them in the mid 80s. Video could have been a bit better, more of the band members etc, but great track.
stunning tune from lonely is an eyesore
🤘
@carpenoctem66 since never! I remember "120 minutes" when they showed the best bands (at least the ones I liked) life is sad for music, which is life, which means life is sad. How can we make life happy again?
Impresionante.
uau!
2020 still masterpiece
DARK...CLASICO.ME AGRADA
