I am so sorry for your great losses. My father passed away last year at the age of ninety five. I miss him, and wish that we could still be together. I, also, use music, the music we shared, to draw close to him. Again, I am sorry for your losing both of your parents at such a young age. You seem like a good person who has done well in life, despite what you were missing. God Bless you!

Been said many, many times, I’m sure; Budgie was/is one of the most exceptionally talented percussionist of 20/21st century. His drumming style is so relaxed & his ability to naturally complement other musicians & Souxie’s structures, putting meat on the bones to the overall sound. Great band of my late teens/early 20’s. Love ‘Happy House’, & the arrangement of ‘Dear Prudence’. Thanks, You-Tube for upping this for time lost lots of my albums, so nice to hear this again. JaneR

Hi cris❤

[@quattrohead]

Never realized how darn good the drums are on this, seriously good.

[@Trixtah]

Same! I literally came here to say the same thing! It's one of my absolute fave songs of the post-punk era, and on listening to this again for the first time in years (I had the LP, who knows where that is now), I realised that proto-breakbeat is really just awesome. That's Budgie, who became Siouxsie's partner. The whole thing is just perfection - the lyric, Siouxsie's vocal (of course), John McGeoch's poignant lead guitar (why he isn't in the video...), and Steve Severin with that great bassline. All fabulous.

Budgie is one of the greatest drummers around. From Wiki: In 2013, Spin rated him at No. 28 in their list of "The 100 Greatest Drummers of Alternative Music", writing: "Post-punk introduced a lot of amazing drummers, but none more influential than Budgie. With the Banshees, Budgie didn't just play rhythms-he played hooks and leads, brilliant parts that set the songs on fire. His tom-tom-intensive approach, [was] enlightened by his awareness of world music".Spin considered his "most booming moment" to be "Into the Light", from 1981's Juju, saying: "Budgie drums up a marvel of kinetic syncopation and invention".

Before breakbeat existed -amazing. Budgie was into polyrhythms etc, and this was really a much better take on a "reggaeish" vibe than so many non-Jamaican musicians who attempted it. So, imagine in some alternate universe, instead of sampling the Amen Break ad infinitum, if somehow Budgie's beats became the basis of DnB

[@dimmykarras9287]

Mint drumming and McGeoch's genius guitar sound really adds to Siouxsie's voice. She was special. Like a female Bowie. Nowadays you can't find genuine bands like this.

[@carljules3123]

They were the most important band of the early 1980s

[@kencf0618]

Sad but true. And when such emerges, go to town. The band you save may be your own.

[@carljules3123]

@@kencf0618 I wasn't there in the 1980s (born in 1983) I discovered them in 1997. But I saw Siouxsie live in 1998-1999 with the Creatures and it was fab'. These last 15 years, I've been following PJ Harvey, a couple of concerts per tour, and each time it was brilliant, with great musicians around her

Alan Minne In the 80’s British singers used to try and sound American, and American singers tried to sing as if they were British. Go figure!

They're gone because of political correctness and dumbing down the masses. You can't write a decent music or shoot a good, honest movie anymore. You can, of course - but no one will hear you becase of total media control and censorship. Welcome to 1984.

Happy to see that Jenna Ortega implemented some of Siouxsie's dance moves in this video into her rave dance on Wednesday. I loved Siouxsie & the Banshees back when they were still performing and was happy to get to see them on tour many years ago when they visited the Florida Theatre :D
