Bauhaus - Third Uncle

[@fionadavidson2193]

Pure class - how can anyone not love Bauhaus???

[@manuelg-m3813]

I saw Bauhaus on stage in London, the same week they released this song.

[@mactimred1263]

a forever experience

[@mrqs1549]

YOU'RE SO LUCKY!

[@sophiebabiie111]

In The Lyceum ?

[@anne-mariereevesyantes2287]

Wow

[@metronommie]

damn u must be really old now

[@feegalindo7494]

Shoplifted this on cassette, when it came out in the '80s.....

[@nonh1]

I loved cassettes. They were easy to shoplift

[@finnkdy]

High Tide and Green Grass plus half (?) my collection when albums were in their covers. That coat, worth its weight in d'or.

[@MaraGre]

I didn’t steal mine…but I still have this cassette!

[@webidodson1498]

I m usually not a fan of covers but the Bauhaus always leave their style on everything. The Bauhaus are one of a kind n do everything on another level completely!!!

[@SirAntoniousBlock]

Of course Eno was 10 years ahead but Bauhaus are the only ones who could've interpreted this correctly.

[@ladyblackstardust390]

First time hearing Bauhaus's cover of Eno 1974 classic. Well. Love Eno!

[@darling_danke_schoen]

Lady BlackstarDust heard this on a Pandora station for Magazine. The Eno Version, I mean. But of course Bauhaus did a version. Because it’s awesome

[@ralucagymnast]

One of my all time favourite songs and definitely one of my Bauhaus favourites. Its just so sexy and primevall i loved it back in 83 and still love it to bit today, fab; when i hear it im 13 again.

[@finnkdy]

Then there was Eno.

[@kbeesmot9928]

Saw these guys many times in the 80's and still one of my go to's to play in the car. Magnificant

[@eerieshor]

Still have my vinyl copy of The Sky's Gone Out.....still delicious.

[@Squeaky1423]

He still is a great performer! I saw Peter Murphy recently - omg, he's not as skinny as in his younger days, but his voice is still the deep, rich, mesmerizing voice, and his stage presence is magical! And this song KICKS ASS! Mr. Murphy played many songs (his repertoire is so large now) but treated the crowd to many Bauhaus songs as well. Sadly, this one was not included, but it's one of my faves. The original Brian Eno version is also excellent - both versions are brilliant, eh?

[@kbanderson2820]

I love this video and this song!!

[@samuelreed4644]

Badass tune. Just found out it is an Eno cover. Rediscover how influential Eno is. He the man.

[@adderon]

In good and bad ways (His own songs and working with Talking Heads: amazing, U2: good, Devo: not so much)

[@stonyrerootkit8922]

Rediscover... I don't think so!! I could tell when he played Synth and Resident Weirdo in Roxy Music!!😎🚀🌈😳🚀💋

[@sizone]

everyone's first was bela. and that set them up on their career. bela was still the #1 alternative song on the local toronto radio station in the 90s in their top 1000 countdown, nearly 15-20 years after it was released.

[@sizone]

The original and cover are very different. This is one of my fave Bauhaus tracks, then youtube was created and I finally discovered it was a cover :) The original is way rawer and way less smooth, more punky, but both are amazing.

[@pwatts8846]

I think they've been pretty faithful to the original. Especially the lead and bass guitars.

[@stevejackson8094]

@@pwatts8846 I have to disagree with all respect. This version seems to be more focused on the vocals rather than what made the Eno original so outstanding..... the gut wrenching guitar by Phil Manzanera. The original sounds like Phil is actually breaking his fingers, or at least the guitar strings, while playing. Perhaps that is just Eno and his feedback taping genius but that does not matter. It is the sound of that guitar that makes the song. Unfortunately I feel that this version does not capture that incredible rawness.

[@cindigonzalez7350]

Yea I like both too

[@Spectrescup]

@@stevejackson8094 a good and well argued point, but 14 year old me still loved this.

[@JamesReynolds852]

@@Spectrescup Don't get me wrong, I like this version by Bauhaus too. Just not as much as the original version by Brian Eno. Eno's version is the one I heard first and had listened to for a few years, long before Bauhaus did a cover of it. And it's the version I fell in love with.

[@derekrushton6444]

Absolutely.. one of my top tracks of all time...Wonderful

[@michaelschmidt1194]

+Derek Rushton Again,this is a cover. And the prize goes to.....(anyone who can think without having to rely on their phone or google, I.E, anyone with a brain...)

[@stephenpoe7735]

+Michael Schmidt The prize goes to Bauhaus but it's a cover from Brian Eno friend!!!

[@razzle1969]

+Michael Schmidt are there people with brains these days....oh.....;)

[@darkwaverful]

my first bauhaus record i'd buy was in 1996, i'd never heard a man singing songs like BOWIE I'd loved it,awesome voice

[@BlackMarshmallow]

definitely one of my favourite songs

[@stephenvelez9710]

from david's urgent bass, to kevin's explosive drums, to daniel's soaring guitar...and then peter's perfectly understated vocal, this song puts together an epic opening.

[@dthoog]

i love them, but its still a cover

[@BaronAnselme69]

There were tims There was pork There are legs There are skarks There was John There are cliffs There was mother There's a poker There was you Then there was you There are scenes There are blues There are boots There are shoes There are Turks There are fools They're in lockers They're in schools They're in you Then there was you Burn my fingers Burn my toes Burn my uncle Burn his books Burn his shoes Cook the leather Put it on me Does it fit me Or you It looks tight on you

Just...makes...me...wanna...BOUNCE!!! Maybe like in a Bau-nce-haus;-)

[@Gericault77]

Twenty years ago we tore up a lot of dorm rooms listening to that song....

[@mookie2637]

@dancooperfication Your articulacy, as ever, is outstanding. Thank you. What an admirable philosophy of music you have. With this attitude, we could have dispensed with Mahler, Bach and all those old farts. Thank God!

[@trumpgottagoitmfa9216]

A perfect song for them to cover!

[@MarcelDnilovo]

Awesome Music !!!!!! Brian Eno was way ahead of his time !!!!!

[@spartacusvikinga]

Most folk are ahead of their time. We just didn't know it at the time.

[@mnmlstellar]

MASTERPIECE !!!!!

[@JeanChristopheRuizghostgoth77]

A monument!!!

Happy Halloween my dark friends!

[@summerswinterer9247]

My favorite Bauhaus songs are the ones that sound like Love and Rockets. Kick in the Eye is another one.

[@danieldente]

i wish i was there in the 80s :3

[@johnqpopulist8994]

+Luv Snowkitties For the music, maybe. As a first-year Xer (1966) I can tell you that you were spared alot of shit.

[@danieldente]

Matt Miniatt Yeah haha, for the music. And the clubs as well. But sure, today a lot of stuff has improved.

[@clod8]

Xer born 1970. Usually, people don’t realize they lived in amazing times but we did. I can’t even begin to tell you how amazing it was to be a child in the 1970’s and a teen in the 1980’s..,

[@danieldente]

clod8 i can only imagine! 😓

[@glenbellefonte9620]

@@danieldente I, too, was born in 1970. And let me tell you, it was better in the regard that we didn't pander to entire races of people over syrup bottles and invented racism.

[@spaceclown7650]

I love Eno but I have to say this version might be better than Eno's original. Bauhaus really nailed it.

[@nilselaynegomes4049]

Que ritmo feliz e contagiante dessa música!!

[@MRROCKET23]

The way they played this live made this version sound like the Magic Roundabout theme.

[@richierich1040]

good to hear from you . i'm going to give it a shot this reminds me of misfits, samhain,and someone else i can't think of right now. gold stars for you! keep me posted k ?

[@perroturcas]

so great version!! the master Eno feat. it 1974's Bauhaus was played 78-79 with a really dark wave sound!!!!

[@mookie2637]

@dancooperfication Today I stood for 15 minutes reading an account by Jonny Marr of why Wire were a great band. It wasn't massively articulate, but nonetheless he didn't write that piece about Bauhaus. My sense is that they took accepted cliches of the moment and just...made them louder. Wire, The Fall and the Gof4 did something that marked a genuine aesthetic break. Your view?

[@blazinchalice]

One of my fav songs from a seminal post-punk band!

[@danieldente]

i have a uncle that i truly dislike, so i totally identify with this song haha

[@HellBloodyFire]

great -- just love this

[@Inmydevil]

The original version of this song seems more crispy and raw, while this version seems more blurry. I dig them both.

[@richierich1040]

i've been busy lately, but since hearing from you i'm going to get back into it. THANKS !

[@darrinpollard2408]

Killer Cover

[@michaelevans512]

Awesome, brings me back

[@AntisthenesOfAthenai]

Most certainly the best cover of this track, and arguably just as good as the original. But, considering it's Bauhaus, does that really surprise anyone?

[@steevedaw2807]

God this brings me back.

Cover or original, man who knows. I learn toward Eno. But very close indeed. BTW why does Lincoln look like Herman Muster?

[@podfunk]

One of the most stormingest covers ever.

[@4n6design]

Great video. Here is my visual interpretation of it. Killer song. Third Uncle - Bauhaus. The Eclipse.

[@afrazzini]

So fucking amazing, still to this day

[@stevenharvey4643]

This Song makes me want to visit the local graveyard lol.

[@mikeberube4450]

I just listened to both and I have to say Manzanera's guitar is choppier and more disjointed . I like it better . Maybe I'm just old and always heard Bauhaus's version as a cover .

[@mookie2637]

@robaralis I've been a session bass player for the best part of 20 years. I don't need to 'learn music'. I also remember going to several Bauhaus gigs in the early eighties when I was a sort-of fan of theirs. But now it seems to me there are many other bands of the late seventies and early eighties who did far more musically interesting and adventurous things than Bauhaus ever did. Perhaps you're just being a bit nostalgic?

[@mookie2637]

@dancooperfication Jonny Marr was the guitarist in the Smiths - possibly one of the more important British bands of the mid and late eighties. Are you suggesting that anyone who tries to write songs and gigs them is somehow automatically to be valued? Hmmm. I have written songs and gigged them, but I wouldn't claim that what I did stands the test of time because I was, uh "dedicated to my art".

[@wahivalleys3011]

Top 3 Bauhaus song! Wahi' Valleys

[@sizone]

did you check out mask or other albums? what did you think?

[@BionicTapeworm]

@ifanbates I agree with your evaluation of Bahaus's Ziggy Stardust. I always considered Bowie's vocals lacking.

[@sarzbeth]

This song still tracks

[@mookie2637]

@dancooperfication Heh - okay it's a deal. I used to love them - I remember playing countless covers of Bauhaus songs in the eighties. My point is: where was the substance in this band? Other than the hairdos, the dry ice and the posing, what were they saying that could stand the test of time? Not much, if anything, in my view. If your's is different why not take the time to explain why. instead of throwing your toys out of the pram?

[@feline-logic]

My favorite of Bauhaus...

[@jasonmalice]

best cover of this. rivals the original, surely.

[@jmitchaguilar]

one of their best

[@halenbud]

Nice Video

[@brianwensing4766]

I'd like a mash-up of the original vocals and drums with the Bauhaus guitars and bass plz......

[@MrBradius123]

BBC did better than the original season recently..... I always felt that Bauhaus were kings of the cover, third uncle, telegram Sam , and even Ziggy Stardust (sacrilege) were better than originals..

[@sizone]

imho, mask is their best album. try to enjoy them album at a time, it's a fully realised production of the artists, instead of consuming them one song at a time in a vaccuum. mask sets up a certain environment after a few songs. awesome stuff.

[@garythompson5316]

@Squeaky1423 I understand the skinny part as you get older its much harder to keep slim.I like the work he did with Trent Reznor,but then I really liked Nine Inch Nails.His voice is brilliant but no doubt his Stagecraft was his best feature.I always wanted to look like his fellow band member Daniel Ash in my younger days but it was never possible because I'm exceptionallly stocky.But it has its advantages & I like my build now.The grass is always greener on the other side.

[@gregoryhluch4637]

Yup....from Canada😁

[@sizone]

:) try all the albums. then check out Love and Rockets early stuff moving towards later (L&R is 3 members of Bauhaus). oh wait, i skipped Tones on Tail (2 albums, 2 bauhaus members) as well as Jazz Butcher (David J played with them after bauhaus before L&R). I never dug Peter Murphy's solo stuff tho :(

[@sizone]

I too think the Eno version is superior - and this is coming from me not realising it wasa cover til 3 years ago - 24 years after hearing the bauhaus version! I admit the Eno is incredible. However, it is a worthy tribute. Every cover should bring a different interpretation to the original, or there's no point if its just a copy. I think this does well.

[@christianrenteriadelafuent2786]

yeaaaaaaaaaa

[@blahblahoink]

Good covers band

[@ralucagymnast]

Its still much better than Eno's version though;) I discovered Bauhaus in 1980, I was 13 and still at school; Ive always liked music "from the fringes", even from a very young age; I had a father with excellent musical taste: Velvet Underground, Rolling Stones, Beatles, Ry Cooder, Led Zep, blues stuff from Bessie Smith(yes, on Bakelite records lol), so my education began at a very early age:)

[@jamesgroome3072]

Brian Eno?

I now remember High School, hearing this song, but only from another local school.
