And once again, after listening to this band for over 40 years, the one word that comes to mind is WOW! Percussion, flawless; guitars, spectacular, bass, perfection; vocals and lyrics, fabulous! This band will NEVER be forgotten, at least where I'm concerned. Really hard to find anything today to come close. RIP Pete ♥️☮
I've been listening to this song for 35 years, and appreciate it more every time I play it.
Same
Me too, I rebought this album many times over the years. I love them just as much today as I did then. They look so young to me now !
Because is a good music.
here I am 3 years later because this is still the perfect song
Porcupine is their best album to my way of thinking. Ian's vocals were at their absolute peak..
Pete de Freitas wasn't just a drummer, he was a percussionist, instrumentalist and most of all, a talented musician. RIP
Completely agree.
Yes totally agree.. Pete was so important to their overall sound, he was just a beautiful man. blessings 💞
For a period the Bunnymen WERE the best band in the world.
I totally agree that this is one of the best songs by Echo and The Bunnymen, little known however perhaps that gives it a touch of being special, one of their songs that I most liked to dance at the New Wave parties in Lima- Peru
From the first time I heard them in ‘82, through my college years (especially!), my twenties, thirties, forties and now approaching my sixties (OMG), E&TB will always be my favorite band with a special place in my heart. This is one of my favorites of theirs.
Let's take a moment to appreciate Pete's originality putting together this percussion setup that work's so well.
RIP Pete de Freitas (2 August 1961 - 14 June 1989)
one of the bests bunnymen songs, mcculloch's vocal is perfect, seargent riffs are unique and the lyrics are so poetic and very beautiful
Perfect description..
This is such a classic and beautiful song.
Echo and the Bunnymen, The Wild Swans, Altered Images, and Ocean Blue....put me on a deserted island with these 4 groups and their albums and I'd be ok
Awesome song...I love this album! WAY underrated.
Blair M I highly agree!
I love everything. Bought and still buy , Everything... But they have never bettered Porcupine..
So very underated. Do much better than Ocean Rain , and very slightly better than Crocodiles and Heaven Up Here. I still hear something new everytime I listen to this album. Ocean Rain kinda bored me ...a little. ❤
Completely right.
Echo & The Bunnymen one of the influential post-punk neo-psychedelic bands of the time
Loved it then and still. So cool. Pete da Freitas rip. One very talented drummer.
Porcupine is a fine gem of a recording. Definitely my favorite.
Their songs should have a warning sign, could contain hooks. They were so talented. Fabulous voice, fabulous musicians, ❤️🎵🎶🐰
Probably one of my favorites by Echo. Tight and full of sound. That transition at 2:26 is wonderful
My fave Echo album. It's always in my rotating top 5 albums ever.
YEEEEESSSSSS! When little else makes sense, at least Echo and The Bunnymen do.
arrangement, sound and lyrically in a total class of their own around this period, the Bunnymen are dead, long live the Bunnymen
One of their top 3 songs, no doubt
Wonderful, thanks
Still sounds as good as ever.
I 100% endorse all the previous comments on this page.
This is a totally underrated LP, dark and different at least they didnt stick to a boring formula but Ocean Rain gets all the accolades and its there weakest LP by a mile
Pete de Freitas was the heartbeat of early period Bunnymen. He was one hell of a drummer/percussionist, and is probably happily jamming away with other members of the 27 club (Hendrix, Cobain, Morrison, Joplin etc).
One of their best songs. Not keen on their later stuff aftet Pete Defritas died
Need to come here once in a while to get my fix.
Pete makes this song. Kudos to the rest of the Bunnymen but I bow down to the late, great Peter de Freitas
Massive fan and can't believe I haven't seen this video before and I'm in my mid 50s.
Fab.
Shame on you ! Especially if you are a scouser.
Now I'm an industrial techno/dubstep/ambient head. 🤑 and I'm 50y.
Excellent band. One of my favorites in high school in 83, 84.
Loved this band since 82".Loved them ever since.
Got me by a year
Good looking band.
Dark; mysterious; warm with a 60's sounding organ; pure Echo!
Pete de Freitas R.I.P
40 años escuchandolos y nunca cansan.
Excellent 🖤
Great song
I don't know how I didn't get exposure to them in the early 80s, I blame MTV for not playing their videos. They are amazing! So sorry I missed out until now.
MTV is how I discovered them, starting with "The Cutter" video. The weren't on heavy rotation, but definitely shown. Ultimately, you did discover this awesome band, and that's what really matters. 🙂
If this album ain’t there best album ever then I’ll be shocked either this or heaven up here
Flaming Red on the Reverberation album is the Noel Burke Bunnymen mk2 answer to this masterpiece.
Umas das melhores bandas de todos tempos....
El riff de guitarra en el coro... qué pinche precioso suena.
I absolutely love these films they made for 4 of the songs off of Porcupine, The Cutter film/video from the same session is fantastic as is Porcupine the song.
I have loved this song since the get go - it is such a beautifully realised album. As an Australian reviewer described it at the time; "A wonderful roller coaster ride with a beautiful coda". If you love Joni Mitchell , then my comment is completely understood.And my headstone will read, "In bluer skies". Bless ylu Ian & Joni.
Love Ian's voice , detest Joni's. It's a funny old world.
One of their best...
The coolest fucking band in history.
Who thumbed this down 😂 its a rite tune!! 😍
What a load o dweebs
Echo an the bunnymen....faz parte de meu ser.....pena....Pete de Freitas ter morrido e o Les Pattinson....não estar mais com eles.....pra mim....a melhor banda de meus 58 anos.....todas músicas tem um remember pra mim
brilliant.
Semplicemente magnifica!

I actually got a little scared when I first heard this, I thought some spell had taken effect ( which can be done) through the recording..It hit me so immediately + deeply. I'm hoping it's just an incredible piece of music!
perfect
Bons tempos!
Essa música é um tesouro
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👌👌❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Are there any other bands that line up like the bunnymen with the drummer in the front with the group?
Faint Sounds: They only did that occasionally though. Apparently it makes it a lot harder for the rest of a band to hear themselves playing/singing when the drummer is placed in line with them.
Heard it in Woolworths and bought album on spot. Can’t understand why it’s hardly ever been played live. All the same they were brilliant at Cambridge Corn Exchange on Saturday
Porcupine didn't have one average track on it! IMO, just pips Heaven Up Here at the finishing line.....
You Echo my thoughts. Heaven Up Here is perfection , so how can it be bettered ??? But somehow, Porcupine just pips it ...❤
culte
they look 15
21,23,24 & 24
So true, made me laugh.😂
