I love this theatrical dreamlike surrealism they created. It's so untainted by anyone else messing around with it. They're an escape from stark bland boredom. I need this weirdness. I found their songs only this December while browsing through CD's at a local shop. Classic way to discover them right? Around midnight I played this while driving. Oh my goodness me!!! Upon pressing play, I was like caught between two worlds. Magnificent. They're music psychedelia. Yes, magical and mysterious alluring strangeness. Curiosity!
Budgie lights up a smoke on camera.... Aaah those were the days. Ive met both of them. VERY nice people. The interviewer was great. He asked great questions.
I love the comment here at 4:05: "The magic that we want is not textbook magic. I mean we use terms like "Voodoo" or "Spellbound," but they're not to be taken literally. The best magic is when something good happens and you don't plan, it's not in your control. To an extent you are in control, but to be totally in control of everything, then that'd be boring. Life would be boring if nothing went (then she clicks her fingers), you know, something magic's happened. But it's not (mimics a person casting a spell by waving her hands). It's a feeling."
This music stays in my mind after one listen, for at least a week, where I have to listen every day.I wasn't into them that much back then, but now I'm rediscovering them Budgie is a gorgeous man!!!
Wish Steve was there with them. I hope Budgie's new project with Lol goes far and brings good things. John McGeoch R.I.P... *_SIOUXSIE & THE BANSHEES RULE..._*
@@scarletblast It's a new music project between Lol and Budgie (not Siouxsie) called LXB (originally, it also included Kevin Haskins of Bauhaus/Tones On Tail/Love & Rockets). Lol and Budgie might also be producing a new podcast as well...
@@jamiehanley3419 Me too! Loved the season 1 episodes and am loving the new 2nd season episodes. They're really inspiring to me as I get ready to re-record some of my own music.
TravisBickle1963 - It may be. But mine was on Wells St, 1/2 block north of North Ave but I think yuppies owned that bldg. I didn't live in IL when they reopened on S. Ashland area now (?). I loved the black brick walls of the Exit Lounge and the graveyard scene on it with the names of other bars on the tombstones (very funny) like Neo^s, 950/Lucky Number, O^Bannion^s (named after a mobster Capone had killed) which was on S. Clark St close to downtown? THAT was my very 1st ckub when that song 1st came out ^Dancing With Myself^ and my roomie & I were buzzing on blotter! Wild days, man!
TravisBickle1963 - I wish you luck! I was probably working downtown so missed SoM! As I lived there from 1981-85. Before moving to the desert of CA. I miss that city. Give the Lake by LSD a pat for me, aye? Do you go to the Exit Club now?
Siouxsie is so right when being asked what Slowdive is about. Great lyrics don't need to be interpreted, that takes something away. It's up to the listener to decipher what they mean!
Actually, she quit smoking in 1987, then, picked it back up around 1993 or so. Then, when she quit in 2003, she found out that she's part of a rare percentage of people whose body chemistries can't function correctly w/out nicotine in their system. So, since 2005 or so, she's had to resort to chewing tobacco gum and wearing nicotine patches, and probably vaping, to avoid relapsing in to the bronchitis, asthma, and sinus infections she started having in the early 2000s, due to quitting smoking. She unknowingly prophesied this state with her 1978 song, "Nicotine Stain".
Really? Wow, I guess they did re-prints. Have you ever seen the Nocturne promo shirt? Or the Stargazer shirt? They both have glitter attached to the cotton in addition to the silkscreen ink. Very nice quality.
Of course....anything that Siouxsie officially puts her name on is not going to be poor quality. Right now though all I can think about is the trailer I saw during Super Bowl 50 for the sequel to Cloverfield. LOL
@@chelseapoet3664 I hear you. Old posters are not so hard to find, but original t-shirts are. I had a Stargazer shirt that was really nice but someone stole it. Every now & then you see or hear a reference to Siouxsie in a movie or TV show. One of the most recent examples I can think of is "IT: Chapter One" where Beverly has a Siouxsie poster in her bedroom.
Really is. She wasn't the greatest singer to begin with from a technical standpoint, but she could at least sing in key and was incredibly interesting/mesmerizing. Saw the Banshees shows in 2007, and while I loved her performance in every other way, her voice was just horrible. Most of the songs not even close to being in key.
@@kerchmusic7201 She probably didn't rehearse enough (especially considering she had been smoking) before the start of each of those shows you mention.
I once heard it said to ward against those who practice witchcraft, sorcery, and black, grey or even white magic because their targets usually end up suffering from some kind of multiple personality disorder.

Good music never dies.
Siouxsie and the Banshees forever!
I think Siouxsie (and The Banshees) would love how you discovered their music. Basically, that's the meaning of the song, "Spellbound'.
Wow that's crazy! I saw them in 1982. & The show was unfckn'real!!
Budgie lights up a smoke on camera.... Aaah those were the days. Ive met both of them. VERY nice people. The interviewer was great. He asked great questions.
The 80s those were the days
The interviewer has became a real dork nowadays.
@@LuddyVonBeat he had to make a living. There are worse than little Bart.
There's the De Wever version fi. Way worse!
those were the days when more people died of lung cancer! lmao silly

Words can not express my admiration and love of this band.
One of the best band ever.
I'm so glad she didn't lose her beautiful voice! I saw these two in Chicago when they toured under the name The Creatures. Bloody wonderful!
This music stays in my mind after one listen, for at least a week, where I have to listen every day.I wasn't into them that much back then, but now I'm rediscovering them Budgie is a gorgeous man!!!
Her voice 😍
Siouxsie looks terrific. Christine is a brilliant song.
I like it when people try to analyse the lyrics of their songs because it becomes so obvious they haven't got an articulate way of expressing it
She looked incredible in this as always
There will never be another siouxsie
Wish Steve was there with them. I hope Budgie's new project with Lol goes far and brings good things. John McGeoch R.I.P... *_SIOUXSIE & THE BANSHEES RULE..._*
whats sioux doing with Lol?

My right ear is really lonely
Yeah, but the left one is in the best possible company, isn't it?
mine too. most of the time I only have one headphone in anyway, so I did not notice until I saw your comment.
1983 was a good year to see Siouxie.
Siouxsie is one of the best...
Good Interview..He tapped into what Siouxie likes to chat about.....didn't ask any dumb questions
0:12 i dunno i love how she makes that move with a ruthless spontaneity :3
He's so right! They are magical! 💖💖💖
The interviewer is gorgeous! 😍😍
It's Bart Peeters, a Belgian singer/songwriter and tv presenter. czcams.com/video/4XTTJVuQSCg/video.html
He is a real mainstream dick nowadays.
I love them so much 🥺
Looking good on only two hours of sleep.
Perfect songs
Excelente entrevista
It's funny she referenced 'Trust In Me' four years before they covered it.
I have that shirt but the colors aren’t so dark sadly. Still love it. 💜
omg she is so pretty my muse
I'd always request the dj at the Exit Lounge to play Slow Dive & Cities in Dust by Siuoxsie. Just loved their hypnotic sound!
Calamity Babs Exit Lounge is that the same as the Exit Club?

Calamity Babs I ask because I am trying to find who filmed Sisters of Mercy at the Exit Club in 1984

First time I heard Budgie speak. He's a Scouser !
Budgie's "Fireworks" Tee 😋
I love the way she dismisses Bruce Springsteen "we didn't wanna be like that".
4:11 so true Siouxsie:)
She is my queen
"Slowdive" is a keystone... I cannot understand how it gets so overlooked ...
Siouxsie is so right when being asked what Slowdive is about. Great lyrics don't need to be interpreted, that takes something away. It's up to the listener to decipher what they mean!
She was warned about her smoking in 83, but carried on regardless. Such a shame.
Actually, she quit smoking in 1987, then, picked it back up around 1993 or so. Then, when she quit in 2003, she found out that she's part of a rare percentage of people whose body chemistries can't function correctly w/out nicotine in their system.

From Pop Elektron ep 6, aired 18 Feb 1983
I agree. Tinderbox was a flawless album siouxie hat is adorable so is her ex husband sitting next to her lol
M'Siouxsie
It would be cool to own those shirts. lol

Sorry, but are you mental? You seem to answer your own questions???
I had a banshees t-shirt in the 80s, the design was similar but it had their logo on it. I miss it!

I am looking for juju lp. but so expensive
It's a shame she continued to be heavy smoker. Combined with her throaty style of singing it ruined her voice, imo.
Really is. She wasn't the greatest singer to begin with from a technical standpoint, but she could at least sing in key and was incredibly interesting/mesmerizing. Saw the Banshees shows in 2007, and while I loved her performance in every other way, her voice was just horrible. Most of the songs not even close to being in key.

ahh Fuck off
I saw her in 1982 or 83 !! & She killed the show!! Y'all suck!! & I bet y'all can't sing any better!!
@@dvis7048 so punk rock

The presenter is Bart Peeters, known from 'The Radios'
Cool, I love stories and fact's about the video's.... Thanks.
TvMost admirable thing is she didn't fall I to the drug and alcohol trap.
3:48 "Trust in Me" was inevitable! ;-)
Wasn't she going with severin,and then married budgie?
