Before we got there

[@koray2573]

Nice what u did there

[@jonnyjaywick]

arthur's cello really helps this song. I love this version.

[@ashleymonday298]

I don't know how I went my whole life and didn't know that was Arthur Russell. Holy shit. Best version of this song even before I knew that.

[@braedenarchambault9687]

The cello adds so much driving force. Lovely song, lovely rendition

[@Maximillion666]

Ive heard this song a million times but once I heard that cello I couldn't help smiling.

[@ilovethework]

This is the most conventional I've ever heard Arthur Russell.

[@oooomingmak]

you've got to hear his country album then, "love is overtaking me"

[@charlessale409]

yeah that shit rules

[@IFeelSoTongueTied]

nah this is way more conventional than love is overtaking me..

[@calcifieddirt4120]

dude made country and actually really "accessible" and fun disco in his off time, he could be virtually anything

[@warrenbyrom693]

@@oooomingmak nothing conventional about the lack of cliche, the raw honesty, the sensivitve beauty, the combination of vulnerablility and assuredness in the vocals on that "country" record

[@quambambalujimini81]

i love instruments

[@drunkonthepopesblood2891]

me too

[@datadonascimento]

the cello is beautiful

[@wiccagoddess6022]

I grew up listening to them never got to hear this version till a year ago. The cello is so pretty in it.

[@michaelhalsall5684]

The cello really makes this song!I like version is raw and edgy!

[@gooman04]

all these years i’ve heard the “acoustic version” of psycho killer and didn’t know that arthur russell was on it

[@justinvondensteinen2616]

Holy crap, this in incredible! Go Arthur! My new favorite version of this song.

[@NOWtheband]

It was released. It's on the b-side of the Psycho Killer 12". My brother had it in the 80's (I have it now).

[@nicolas_araya]

The Genius Arthur Russell ❤❤❤

[@jennasbb7848]

My favorite version.

[@FrankVeldkamp]

This version is not unheard, nor unreleased - it's available on the re-issue of Talking Heads' debut album "Talking Heads: 77" as 'Psycho Killer (Acoustic)'.

[@DilettanteProduction]

It was also on the B-side of the U.S. promo 7" (Sire SRE 1013) at the time, just gave it a spin to confirm.

[@revolution6269]

Luv this version - much more eerie!

[@AlecKennedyWalker]

I couldn't believe this when I saw the link, but it's definitely them.

[@EcstasyOfApostasy]

First saw this on Dangerous Minds. More people need to listen to this! DAT CELLO!!!

[@megansiebe9495]

I like the cello a lot

[@megansiebe9495]

No really

[@BloodIncantationTab]

Why is Arthur Russell so based?

[@hazuinf]

@@benajminprince4900 How does that answer the question?

[@jccs98]

based on what

[@robertofloresmondragon2731]

XD

[@anniemorrison4540]

Great version. To me, better than the "standard" one.

[@OFR]

I really like this version better. I can see they cut him off the original record as they couldn't do it live, but it's great this way. Their idea of trying to make "an Alice Cooper song"! True....

[@weewilliewagtail]

@MrSmoDato Thanks so much for posting that. Love it.

[@kinslor]

There's a real Easybeats sound at the end there (I'll Make You Happy), with the acoustic instruments strumming hard. I love this version of Psycho Killer.

[@danc5434]

wow ty

[@OFR]

I believe this is not that original BSide but the later mix done for the reissues of the CDs about 7 years ago?

[@HenriqueMarcomini]

does someone have this pic of the video, i need it for my wallpaper

[@dusygibbons]

Say something once, why say it again?

[@scum1979]

[@gustavopierani1499]

[@juanxd6411]

Thank God this wasn't the final cut.
