Scarlet Fantastic - No Memory (The Tube 1986) (BEST QUALITY)

[@itsthe773guero5]

the reverb/delay on his riffs make this version quite a gem here....no memory gives me such great memories

[@esseel7896]

agreed, its astonishingly beautiful. i must download this version as it is truly special.. its superior to the remade later version. magical and it became a shadow of its former self. no doubt record company decision.

[@esseel7896]

also...the bass is fkin bangin

[@ScobieLeprachaun]

So agree, the guitar sound is awesome in this version 🎸😊

[@douglasfreeman3229]

Not heard this version . I like the more prominent bass, with it's solid root-note style and the more ethereal riff. An unusual 1980s song deserving of more recognition, I think.

[@eightiesmusic1984]

It was an amazing song when it burst into the charts in 1987. I used to love it and it still sounds great. A pop record that means business and not a spare second wasted. Shame they did not have more success.

[@JuiceTerry87]

I only came across it due to hearing an extended version on a Balearic playlist! I've heard 3 versions of it and all have been excellent. A wonderful track.

[@dinodude1100]

love it and Maggie is my pal such a fabulous woman xx

[@stuartandfredabruce9890]

Oh lucky you , I love her , if you read this say hello to her from Freda , loved her and this song

[@ScobieLeprachaun]

I keep coming back to this, love this version 👌🏻😊

[@franko2886]

Great song and video! Should have been a big hit back in the day. I prefer this rock guitar and synths version than the pop produced version that was released as a single.

[@anniemac4637]

Underrated song..

[@Segomi]

Thank you for this clip Rosa! I recorded this on a video tape in Spring of 1987, (my senior year of high school). Fell in love with the band, video, song. I lost the video tape years ago and was so upset with myself. You made my whole year by bringing this to KZbin! I have some great clips of the Tube show from England I need to post them on KZbin.

[@rosamannen]

you're welcome. do it :)

[@louiselevell8151]

Scott, this could be me writing this comment! I was obsessed with Swansway and then SF. Amazingly I was later friends with Rick in the early 90s as he ran a brilliant 70s funk & disco night in Birmingham, and he made me a copy of this, as my original Tube video wasn’t the song in full. It was treasured! Made the mistake of lending it out 😔 So very very happy to find this tonight! I never dreamt anyone would still have it! Thanks Rosa! 💕

[@kobalt77]

Great song, really great and her voice is amazing. It's criminal that folk with talent like this do not get the dues they deserve, and in this era talentless robots are multi millionaires.

[@80ssynthfan48]

I like this version better than the single. Great illustration of the compromises and watering down sometimes needed to make a song a hit.

[@Mark-ec3lp]

This version always sounds much better than the polished single release, great track.

[@mumsow]

Such a brilliant tune 💜

[@maxkazzora4234]

Adored Maggie De Mond back in the day. Her body and her eyes were a sight to behold.Huba huba❤️❤️❤️❤️Music wasn’t bad either especially this track. 👍🙏

[@xX_TheRealDatSpeedyF_Xx]

Kudos to the uploader. I remember this being in the charts when I was doing my O-levels. Surprisingly I passed 8 and failed only one of them - English Lit.

[@vermilliongecko]

Maggie wearing a cone bra a full four years before Madonna wore hers in the Vogue video! Also, zero shaving, zero fucks given. Legend.

[@LP-cr7jo]

She is always ahead of her time. And so wise, lovely and beautiful.

[@TheGodParticle]

Nah that's al bundys wife

[@ady44a]

This is awesome, how I miss the 80s

[@douglasfreeman3229]

I love this song too, but I certainly don't miss the 1980s. I remember the bad side of the decade too clearly.

[@philiphall4805]

i remember seeing this on the tube and I just cannot get over how in 35 years popular music has gone down the shitter

[@ivorbiggun710]

Me too. Shocking, isn't it? Such a fantastic time for music then. This version is MUCH better than the eventual release in my opinion.

[@alihart]

@@ivorbiggun710 @Ivor Biggun (if that is indeed your real name) totally agree - the guitar sound, and the slightly slower pace really add to what is a brilliant song

[@JB-pk4ck]

well on a positive note, we have all the good stuf we can still enjoy, and there is still lots of older stuff from past decades ripe for discovery. I suppose its all relationed to dumbing down. Creative people are frightened to overestep the mark as they will be dropped. If i think of my favouritei groups, banshees, roxy music etc they would get nowhere now, the door is shut to anything leftfiel, yet in 1972 and 1982 that stuff could make top ten

[@philiphall4805]

@@alihart certainly is his real name as he landed a part in a film , anyhoo I agree the bass in this version is great , I just wish I could play it loud

[@gordonharley7919]

Fantastic. The 80,s brought us so much great music.

[@philippemouraret1912]

I discovered this song in 1987 on TV, i found it amazing!

[@Kunard144]

Still absolutely love this song, this is the best version with the riffs Lovely lyrics, I do like the Siouxsie voice in places as well. Actually purchased a red vinyl for my daughter today 💖

[@Davidglass-q6p]

Got in from the pub way back in 1986, switched on the TV to watch The Tube - and saw this incredible track and video. Great to see it again, many thanks!!!

[@kimbergin4392]

Take me back

[@paulrennie2603]

More ethereal than the single - like it

[@sebastianmontagu3073]

Thanks, that's brilliant. I was playing the album in my childhood bedroom and my father called out "Is that Sandie Shaw son?"

[@louiselevell8151]

Brilliant!! 😃

[@flossieparsons6040]

Brilliant!!!

[@douglasfreeman3229]

Was dad being serious? It's exactly the kind of thing my dad used to say for a laugh.

[@sebastianmontagu198]

Yes Douglas he was, Dad thought she sounded like Sandie Shaw.

[@eightiesmusic1984]

It could have been- she did record Hand in Glove with The Smiths. Sandie Shaw goes eighties. At least he didn't say is that Cilla Black.

[@mandyjudkins1913]

Out of the ashes of the brilliant swansway

[@ivorbiggun710]

I still listen Soul Train often. The 12" version is somehow more visceral the the single. This version of No Memory is fab. Love all the reverb.

[@lenpey]

A spin-off from Swann's Way.

[@buxvan]

@Lynda the band she was in before this.

[@brianjohnson4539]

Wow, have never seen this version before... Love it... Always wonder what they would have produced if they'd broken through...

[@earthwalker9109]

I bought the 12" single - brilliant - thank you for posting, happier days, music was so much better then :)

[@ady44a]

I remember hearing this for the first time on No Limits

[@jackdubz4247]

So this is what the song was supposed to sound like? The eventual single version pales in comparison.

[@LP-cr7jo]

Oh how much I love this woman and this song. Always and forever! Kisses from Berlin, Maggie

[@HouseofMouse71]

Is it just me or is Maggie twinned with Peggy Bundy!?

[@chrisevans4006]

I love this version i still have the 1987 single

[@Edward1312]

One hit wonders!

[@mbar11]

What a great track. That chorus..

[@JB-pk4ck]

I remember the Tube used to be repeated at weekend, I had seen this late 86 and on repeat recordedit as i loved it so much. I prefer it to the eventual recorded version. Im sure it was shown on the TUbe either oct/nov 1986 as im a date nerd
