Soft Cell - Frustration

[@PelagicPunk]

It's a shame these guys didn't get as much recognition as they deserved.

[@werebunniee]

Emery Ashdown the truth.

[@leefoster4171]

Agreed

[@Vastatio]

@DANNY DIRE you're getting too carried away, Erasure have had a TON of airtime wtf are you talking about???

[@nikkityler5000]

Brilliant album

[@williamhilinsky1327]

They did. Long live the '80's

[@Tomversal]

Everyone is talking about Marc and yeah he's amazing but listen to this synth work from Dave! Legendary... Both of them

[@mattbelinski7760]

Dave has an amazing ability to put the notes in the correct order to sound like the most amazing things you’ve ever heard. Sex Dwarf is a great example of this!

[@dontasciime]

They compliment each other in finished product. Marc not being the best vocalist ever was refreshing

[@pyrtwistPyrtwistWorldInMotion]

The older I get the more this song makes sense. Hard to believe Marc is a ordinary man

[@livvrlovvi7211]

doubt he is

[@alwayslearning1347]

Lyrics that are real and unsurpassed and music that never dates...just a frenzy of creative genius. Don't care if you disagree...this is truly musical poetry in motion.

[@mnl_lnm]

"Frenzy" perfectly captures the feeling I get everytime I listen to this album

[@brizeeuk]

This seams to get even better with age. Timeless.

[@quasimodo8215]

Yeap, with every new day you understand much more what he was singing about ....😂

[@alancombo06]

Ya and as you get older you begin to see were like hamsters in a fecking cage with a wheel, Marc almond has crammed a lifetime of life in to his life He has done something He has achieved a lot, kudos to him and his buddy

[@quasimodo8215]

@@mahlyarobinson4912 dear Mahlya it is impossible to estimate something about your age but I suppose that you're distinctly younger than 20. Personally I comprehended a lot of things going around in my life at very young age due to circumstances . The majority of the population would be able to sing this song as their hymn. Almost every young person think how special, different and indomitable she or he is. Most of them ends as "another brick in the wall". It doesn't have to be that way, but trust me - the price for being individual and independent is pretty high. All the best for your way. ✌

[@biocreature2196]

Die Musik von Soft Cell war, ist und wird immer in meinen Leben eine große Rolle spielen. Marc & Dave sind einfach geniale Musiker! Für mich einer der besten auf der Welt!

[@jonandlisa2000]

Oh Marc 😍 loved you then and you’ve still got it

[@des9655]

I love it back in 1984 when I heard it.. And still love it..

[@WCL31986]

I never heard anything from Soft Cell besides the ubiquitous "Tainted Love". Seems I am missing out!

[@badboy46528]

Man get yourself non stop erotic cabaret , every song is brilliant on it great lirycs too

[@34airflow]

Without a doubt. And they didn't even write "Tainted Love." Many of the songs on this album told stories.

[@darkvinnie3421]

Before this I knew only Tainted Love and Memorabillia

[@JRussellDay]

Yeah memorabilia is fantastic

[@michaelparton71]

So much aggression. I love it.

[@The_Timinator]

One of my all time Favorite Songs. David's intense and complex tempo is so cool and of course Marc's awesome voice and lyrics.

[@andyandy64]

Iconic 80s synth pop, pure class!

[@perpetual61]

See what the Masses Miss out on when they only Listen one Song ( Tainted Love ) over and over again. Soft Cell are more than that song. Marc Almond and Dave Ball are both Talented Beyond Compare.

people kept telling me i sounded like marc almond so i listened to their album. honestly honored

[@quintangeorge94]

Soft Cell are Extremely Underrated.

Definitely one of my most favorite songs. I was born in 2004 and bean listen to soft cell since I was younger and that was a long time ago and I'm like 19

I seem to revisit Marc's music more than any other. It still holds up ...hugely underated ...

[@Swagation]

In love with marc almond and Dave ball, they need more recognition, my friends who heard about them fell in love after they heard them.

[@1000nicknamesandmore]

I love the soft cell music videos because Almond is having the time of his life while Bell looks ready to kill himself

[@LouisaIrwin-up1yv]

I really want Dave Ball to produce my album - actual genius.

"Frustration" is what I often feel when I can't fucking RETURN to my "1982/83 safe bubble" and be again a "13 year old kid" having my mind musically BLOWN by EPIC bands like Soft Cell right here!!!... Hey, "April Fools Day" prank me into believing these ( current times of "the 2020s" ) are some sort of fucked up JOKE and therefore NOT REAL!!!...***April Fools Day 2024***🎉🃏

[@AmosAmerica]

Marc's vocal performance is stellar and David Ball finally gets some focus with this video gem. I would have like to have seen it during the songs release, but thank goodness for KZbin for being so willing to help fill in the blanks of my music video past. This take on life in the suburbs is a lot! I have to wonder what kind of flack they got from it. 🤔🤔🤔 Surely less than Sex Dwarf. 😉

[@fyvoin6964]

"I'm begging to not give a damm " Just amazing Soft Cell lyrics as always how old were they then

[@benjaminclasper9355]

I like the variety in these music videos from soft cell because of how Dave Ball often looks very much a gentlemen work office appearance about him and Marc is kind of like especially in this video very much a teenager especially with the style of jewellery and he’s just going mad with the world and he’s saying that he wants to die too.

[@pschiptunes64]

Marc’s always looked to me like the more energetic and crazy guy, Dave being calmer and such

[@bossendenwoodconvict]

They need to put the garden in this video on one of those programmes where they transform gardens. For example Garden Rescue, or Love Your Garden. It has potential, but there's not much in it.

[@bsz5745]

One of my favorite Softcell's songs, still in my Playlist, but... "Requeat in pace"??? Shouldn't it be "Requiescat in pace"? Ok, I know, who gives a F, anyway... Long live Softcell's music, and Marc's too, of course!!!

[@Omunene]

You're right! The epitaph we often see on gravestones is "Requiescat in pace" (May he rest in peace.) But this video suggests that Dear Dad was not resting but was, in fact, requeating, and not very peacefully at that...

[@maneatingseas]

To those Gen X who audaciously claim that Soft Cell is underrated. They went straight to the top of popular culture and they are still at the zenith, a place none of the contemporary “pop stars” will ever go. The cause of this misperception must be the poor results in KZbin videos and numbers. The plagued mind and its metrics.

[@kndheart77]
