They once toured with Let's Active, whose lead singer was Mitch Easter. A band led by an Easter playing with Bunnymen, get it?

At one point in my life I was convinced that someday Ian McCulloch and Dave Vanian from The Damned were going to have a fight to the death over who got to run away with me. I thought maybe if Richard Lloyd from Television was sober enough that day he might join in. Alas, it was not to be. :(
And now I have "Lips Like Sugar" as my ringtone.
And using "The Killing Moon" in Donnie Darko was a stroke of genius.

They've been playing that lately on XM radio. I had that tape years ago, and now I'd like to get the CD.

When I was in my early teens, Ian McCulloch and Robert Smith were the sexiest men on the planet to me. Yummy.

9. Agreed-- here's The Killing Moon |
|
Under blue moon I saw you So soon you'll take me Up in your arms Too late to beg you or cancel it Though I know it must be the killing time Unwillingly mine
Fate Up against your will Through the thick and thin He will wait until You give yourself to him
In starlit nights I saw you So cruelly you kissed me Your lips a magic world Your sky all hung with jewels The killing moon Will come too soon
Fate Up against your will Through the thick and thin He will wait until You give yourself to him
Under blue moon I saw you So soon you'll take me Up in your arms Too late to beg you or cancel it Though I know it must be the killing time Unwillingly mine
Fate Up against your will Through the thick and thin He will wait until You give yourself to him
Fate Up against your will Through the thick and thin He will wait until You give yourself to him You give yourself to him
La la la la la...
Fate Up against your will Through the thick and thin He will wait until You give yourself to him
La la la la la...
Fate Up against your will Through the thick and thin He will wait until You give yourself to him
Fate Up against your will Through the thick and thin He will wait until You give yourself to him
La la la la la...

14. I've ALMOST got them memorized |
|
my band does a cover of this tune, and I usually "cheat" and look at the lyrics when we play it. However, it's a great excuse to whip out the electric 12-string.

10. should I throw them "Over the Wall" to you? |
|
I'm rebuilding my collection of 80s vinyl after chucking them inadvisedly while moving crosstown. Sigh.
E&B were among my first purchases, along with Tom Verlaine and Television "Marquee Moon"
still looking for Devoto's Magazine. I guess it's rare. Again sigh.

I absolutely, positively love this band!! So many great songs...
Echo And The Bunnymen - Rescue If I said I'd lost my way Would yoy sympathise Could you sympathise I'm jumbled up May be I'm losing my touch But you know I didn't have it anyway Won't you come on down to my Won't you come on down to my rescue Things are wrong Things are going wrong Can you tell that in a song Don't you know what I want anymore First I want a kiss And then I want it all Won't you come on down to my Won't you come on down to my rescue Rescue, rescue, rescue... Things are wrong Things are going wrong Can you tell that in a song Losing sense of those harder things Is this the blues I'm singing Is this the blues I'm singing Is this the blues I'm singing Is this the blues I'm singing Rescue Is this the blues I'm singing

15. Anybody else have the new one, "Siberia?" |
|
It's not up there with the classic first four, but it ain't half bad, either.
YMMV.
