Clan of Xymox - Love Got Lost (Live at Castle Party)

Clan of Xymox performs "Love Got Lost" live at Castle Party in Poland back in 2010.
Ronny Moorings says:
- Could you by the way remind us of the meaning of your band name ?
"Clan" means a close knit group united by a common interest or common characteristics and Xymox is the name I wanted to give myself as a Pseudonym way back in the early eighties, but later I decided just to use my own name. I liked Xymox so it stayed. Xymox is a bastardized version of the word Zymotic, Hence, Clan of Xymox.
- Why did you change the name of the band from Clan of Xymox to Xymox and then back again to Clan of Xymox?
To confuse you and the rack jobbers in the record store. :) OK, every time we changed the name it was a sign there was a certain change for the band and it's direction.
Hijacked from Wikipedia...
Clan of Xymox formed in Nijmegen in the Netherlands 1981, consisting of Ronny Moorings, Anka Wolbert, Frank Weyzig, and Pieter Nooten, and released a mini-album, Subsequent Pleasures, in 1983. They were invited to support Dead Can Dance and were signed to the indie label 4AD, which released their eponymous debut album in 1985. The track 7th Time, with Anka Wolbert on lead vocals, was picked up by John Peel, leading to the band recording two of the Peel Sessions at the BBC, in June and November 1985.
In 1986 they released their second and last album on 4AD, Medusa, before signing with PolyGram. Simultaneously, Pieter Nooten recorded and released his album Sleeps With The Fishes (4AD, 1987), in collaboration with Michael Brook.
Now abbreviated as Xymox, the band's third album, Twist of Shadows, was released in 1989. This album, and its successor Phoenix, were released by Wing Records, a subsidiary of Polydor Records/PolyGram. In the United States, these two albums created a cult following for the band. The first two singles taken from the Twist of Shadows album, Blind Hearts and Obsession proved big college and club hits in the United States with Obsession charting on Billboard's Alternative Songs chart and both tracks hitting the Billboard Club Play Chart. It was the album's third single, Imagination (with Anka Wolbert on lead vocals), that brought the band the most mainstream attention, charting at No. 85 on Billboard Hot 100, generating Top 40 radio airplay and MTV rotation of the Imagination single. Twist of Shadows proved their most commercially successful album, selling more than 300,000 copies worldwide.
By this time the band had moved to England, and released their fourth album, Phoenix, on PolyGram in 1991; after this album, Anka Wolbert and Pieter Nooten left the band due to disagreements about the band's musical direction.
Xymox, without Nooten and Wolbert, left PolyGram to release Metamorphosis (1992) and Headclouds (1993) independently. In 1995 Ronny Moorings toured under the banner of Xymox in the Netherlands, including girlfriend and future band member Mojca.
In 1997 the band's name was reverted to Clan of Xymox; Moorings recruited new live members, besides Mojca, and started touring. The band signed with the independent US label Tess Records and released Hidden Faces, produced by David M. Allen. In 1998 Clan of Xymox got signed by Metropolis Records in the USA, at a time of increasing US interest in the band, and released Creatures. That same year, 4AD re-released Clan of Xymox and Medusa in the USA, and a US tour was planned for April and May 1999. The band at that time consisted of Moorings, Mojca Zugna (bass), Rob Vonk (guitar), Sharon Soffner (keyboards), and Rui Ramos (drums).
In October 2000 the band, without Vonk and Soffner, and with the addition of Nina Simic (keyboards), released Live,a double CD with nineteen tracks and two videos. In 2001, they released Notes from the Underground. In September 2004, Best Of Clan of Xymox was released, with re-recorded versions of early hits as well as later offerings.
Early 2009 Clan of Xymox switched labels, going to Trisol Records in Europe but staying on Metropolis in the USA and Gravitator in Russia. In July 2009 the single "Emily" was released.
:: Love Got Lost ::
Love got lost along the way
No matter what you might say
Life goes on no matter what
You, yourself is all you got
You reap what you sow
You see what you know
She never wanted such a close
But didn't want you to know
The smell of love upon her skin
The time to pick up all her things
All emotions felt within
This time you pushed too far
All you touch you tear apart
This time you pushed too far
All you touch you tear apart
Dressed to kill I watched her glow
Come what may I watched her grow
Excuses made and never caught
True blue is all you bought
Flowers fade and so does love
This bed of roses turned to dust
On pins and needles she adjusts
This time you pushed too far
All you touch you tear apart
Weep now or never more
Let her walk out the door
Don't cry for evermore
Don't cry for evermore
