Siouxsie and the Banshees - The passenger

[@llee8825]

A magnificent performance by Siouxsie & the Banshees. It was brilliant to add horns. Steve is throwing down a thumping bass line. His incredible bass rhythm added a distinctive sound to their music. Budgie was a solid drummer keeping a tight rhythm. All hail our Queen of Goth!!

[@marcosferranti7629]

Siouxsie Sioux had a historical look. Besides a great singer.

[@tikibar1169]

I love singing to this song especially when I’m driving but afraid I’ll drive off the road, lol

[@squash6497]

Me too, that's why I only listen when I am ...the passenger

I missed out on this band in the 80's but now here we are enjoying this great performance. I love youtube. She's fucking awesome and her music stands up well.

[@Ingvaeone]

I feel so lucky to live in this time when we can view these things so easily

[@NINOABSNABSN]

They were post punk, anti new wave, pre apocalyptic, psychedelic, what was called underground at the time.

[@trexinvert]

@@NINOABSNABSN Not just "called". These bands "were" underground. I grew up in the 80's, and only my hardcore friends who wore black and went to clubs all the time knew about bands like these at their peak. MTV was too busy playing Madonna and Duran Duran to play this obscure stuff. Maybe if you listened to KROQ all night on a sunday. I did finally catch up on all this stuff during the early 90's but just not the same to catch bands like this at their peak. My favorite Siouxse song is Cities in Dust...which I saw from some 80's movie. Keep on.

[@jamescolvinjr]

The horns added to this song are brilliant!

[@richardperricone6909]

She plays off the horn well

[@naturalmax8474]

Iggy now uses them

Ah yes, the 80's 🎉🥳🎉🥳🍾🎈👯 So very grateful for having been in my 20's from 82' onwards. What a time to be young and alive 🇬🇧

Best cover version of "The Passenger" even better than Iggy Pop. Love how Siouxsie Sioux carry the tune with that iconic singing voice she has.

Iggy should rerecord it. His version sounds like a demo. It's an amazing song, and Siouxsie owns it.

[@aml3668]

I saw "I, Tonya" yesterday. A few seconds into the closing credits and I knew what I was listening to! Surprised, but it was PERFECT.

[@riverforest2997]

+Largactyl Kid She is more of a percussionist.

[@peony70]

Love her, but this must be lip synched

[@stevobath]

Totally!

[@MsRedbelly]

A lot of 80s music programmes were e.g. Countdown in Australia, every band was miming, & we all knew it. The Cure did a song & even 'played' their guitars with loose strings, & upside down. Iggy Pop deliberately didn't even pretend to sing on one occasion.

[@youjoker9647]

Lot's of bands didn't bother to mime. The Cure performance was from 'Countdown'. In UK especially ,Musicians Union rules meant programmes like TOTP stated that bands had to use the BBC house orchestra or else they had to mime. Many bands like The Clash refused to appear because of these rules

[@SarahDigsHockey]

@@youjoker9647 Johnny Rotton did something similar on American Bandstand. He didn't sing at all and moved all of the dancing couples around to other parts of the stage. I heard it really pissed off the host, Dick Clark.

She didn’t want too, had no choice.

Are we sure this isn't a lip sink

[@mykolalabach2141]

it is, but that was the only option - forced on the group. She still puts in a fantastic performance and she did get to sass that annoying announcer + give us an awesome roll before the recording cut over.

[@stevobath]

Driven away John Carruthers by this time. WTF has she against guitarists? Ended up with Knox Chandler!

+Largactyl Kid It was Siouxsie and the Banshees, not the Banshee's and Siouxsie.
