i only had room for one Peter Murphy song and my ballot and it has already been posted.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 17:36 (eight years ago) link

here is a song i voted for.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 17:41 (eight years ago) link

i know they made a faster remix for the single but still preferred the album version of this song. it was such a great song to open up Earth Sun Moon with.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 17:48 (eight years ago) link

and now finally

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 18:00 (eight years ago) link

damn, didn't re-size that image.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 18:01 (eight years ago) link

i think i had more fin re-listening to Tones on Tail then anything else for this poll. i could have voted for so many more songs from them but limited myself a bit.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 18:03 (eight years ago) link

and checking my ballot, i didn't vote for this song. now listening to it via the Spotify link i'm wondering why?

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 18:04 (eight years ago) link

checking my phone and that didn't work?

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 18:14 (eight years ago) link

that worked, weird.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 18:18 (eight years ago) link

I have to say TOO LOW for "A Strange Kind Of Love". Understated and gorgeous.

LeRooLeRoo, Thursday, 31 March 2016 18:21 (eight years ago) link

Seems like all the songs from Earth Sun Moon are going to place.

LeRooLeRoo, Thursday, 31 March 2016 18:26 (eight years ago) link

it sure does seem like every song from Earth Sun Moon is going to make this poll. not going to confirm or deny.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 18:35 (eight years ago) link

lol

Tracks that appeared on the original UK release were replaced and re-arranged for the US and Canadian market. The album was also renamed, it was Pop but the US release is called The Album Pop. "The Never Never (Is Forever)", "Performance" and "Slender Fungus" were removed and replace with the singles "Twist", "Go!" and "Christian Says".

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 18:42 (eight years ago) link

"Christian Says" was one of my last cuts from my ballot.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 18:49 (eight years ago) link

Good to see all the Earth Sun Moon love. It's easily my favorite of the Bauhaus related albums.

Austin, Thursday, 31 March 2016 18:50 (eight years ago) link

The cover of the album features a detail from Maxfield Parrish's seminal painting Daybreak.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 19:01 (eight years ago) link

I would have had a ballot very heavy on Mask, The Sky's Gone Out and Earth Sun Moon

My #1 song would likely have been "1. David Jay 2. Peter Murphy 3. Kevin Haskins 4. Daniel Ash"

i like to trump and i am crazy (DJP), Thursday, 31 March 2016 19:01 (eight years ago) link

also I am enjoying Ned's quotes all over the Wikipedia entries for these albums

i like to trump and i am crazy (DJP), Thursday, 31 March 2016 19:02 (eight years ago) link

they are great, i was going to add a few of them to the albums roll-out but as you can see didn't end up doing that.

I remember hearing the Dali's Car album for the first time about fifteen years ago and thinking, "Hey, this isn't nearly as bad as people told me it would be!"

Revisiting it for this poll was a chore, quite frankly, and I now understand where all the hate came from.

Austin, Thursday, 31 March 2016 19:16 (eight years ago) link

i don't know it at all.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 19:24 (eight years ago) link

my favorite cover for Tones on Tail, part of the reason i used original artwork.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 19:25 (eight years ago) link

i voted for this song, love when the song opens up and the sky's falling.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 19:30 (eight years ago) link

damn, didn't re-size that image. the album part of this poll had larger images.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 19:44 (eight years ago) link

Always found it very similar to "Slice Of Life".

LeRooLeRoo, Thursday, 31 March 2016 19:52 (eight years ago) link

good point, never thought of it that way.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 19:58 (eight years ago) link

the best things in life comes in threes?

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 20:01 (eight years ago) link

there goes somebody's number one.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 20:04 (eight years ago) link

'Twas I.

Austin, Thursday, 31 March 2016 20:11 (eight years ago) link

it does seem like the perfect closing track. i never hear it that way as i owned Night Music but it did close out Pop.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 20:18 (eight years ago) link

i did also include it in my ballot.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 20:18 (eight years ago) link

haha, glad this song made the poll!

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 20:25 (eight years ago) link

i remember seeing Love and Rockets in Long Beach California during Earth Sun Moon tour? anyways, they did have The Bubblemen come out and do some songs. it was sort of mind blowing with the strobe light and all.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 20:37 (eight years ago) link

i remember not being in the best frame of mind at that show. we were kids drinking outside before the concert. police roll up on us and two of my friends ran. they went after them and one of my friends got arrested. we didn't know if we should go to the show or not. we did end up going but i was stressed out the whole time.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 20:38 (eight years ago) link

so for me The Bubblemen will always be remembered for that crazy night.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 20:39 (eight years ago) link

despite all that, i did not have room on my ballot for them. too much good stuff.

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 March 2016 20:41 (eight years ago) link
