I didn't recognise the name Dave Greenfield but recognised Golden Brown the instant it was mentioned, and it sprang into my head and started playing, and here I am. RIP Dave!
I don't know what is "young" for you, but I'm 16 and I love this song. It's so... I don't have words. Just wonderful. I LOVE it. A friend (16 YO too) sent it to me because he loves it, and... Wow. I only can thank him. (sorry if I made mistakes, I don't speak English a lot ^^')
I heard it first time in the umbrella academy in a scene where a woman is working for her mother, who wants to kill her potential lover, and every time I hear this, it gives me that nostalgia. So when I hear this , I just think the word “bittersweet “ and “life is complicated “
@@PabloRodriguezwhyCharlieWhy This song is an original from The Stranglers. Laurence Mason did a cover in the style of Dave Brubeck. Read his description of how he (Laurence Mason) created the video. Laurence Mason writes "A couple of people have asked how I made this video so here we go - I took a clip from a 1964 live version of Take Five (www.youtube.com/watch?v=tT9Eh...) and made the drum loop by chopping up the intro and turning it from 5/4 into the 3/4 - 4/4 groove that Golden Brown has. The upright bass sound is sequenced from Logic, and the piano part was played in using one of the piano sounds from a Nord Electro 5D. Then I played the sax part over the top (I play a King Zephyr alto and for this I used a hard rubber Yanigasawa mouthpiece rather than my usual bright Guardala).The video was then edited using the clip I'd taken the drum loop from." The music was composed by Dave Greenfield and the lyrics were written by Hugh Cornwell of the Stranglers.
Golden brown texture like sun Lays me down with my might she runs Throughout the night No need to fight Never a frown with golden brown Every time just like the last On her ship tied to the mast To distant lands Takes both my hands Never a frown with golden brown Golden brown finer temptress Through the ages she's heading west From far away Stays for a day Never a frown with golden brown Never a frown With golden brown Never a frown With golden brown
My life has changed so much since my addiction to this song but it reminds me of jukebox days, pink hair, the Spotted cow and chinese meals. I still love this song so much. The 80's music will never be replaced, I was so lucky to have witnessed it.
It's so sad, that Dave Greenfield passed away....😥...love this song so much - your beautiful tune will always be in my ear, my heart and soul - rest in Peace and heavenly sound, Dave✨...!!!
The best song of all the Time !!!! the vagus nerve, the heart, breathing, the brain...all of this is synchronized by listening to this captivating sound...
17 February 2019. Always and forever, thank you to Great Britain and the British people whose creativity, since the 1960s, has given the rest of the World hundreds of unique bands such as the Stranglers and music of unparalleled beauty, quirkiness and atmosphere. What would our lives have been without British bands? Thank you from Sicily. And love, admiration and adoration.
Hard to put your finger on what makes this song so timeless and brilliant. I think more than anything it's the mysterious feel it has (beyond what appears to be an apparent drug reference). What are the lyrics truly about though? Are they about anything at all? Or is it heroin? Impossible to say, only they really know. It's got an incredible rhythmic quality to it very few song have ever come close to. I could quite happily listen to it for hours on end on repeat. Really a phenomenal piece of music. It takes me somewhere that is hard to explain. It's just stunning really. A true classic. One of my favourite songs of all time.
I agree it has a mysterious quality to it. Its mildly upbeat, mellow, and vaguely haunting all at once with its repetitive melody. I also read its about heroin.
amazing pop song - with a bloody harpsichord!!! beautiful, hypnotic. I was entranced when I heard it 34 years ago. still am. one of the great pop songs.
Punk or not punk ? Stranglers = Punk Floyd ? it's always the same controversy with this band In july 1975 Dave Greenfield answered an advert in Melody Maker for a "soft rock" band. They were "punk rock" in 77 because they emerged in this period , because of their attitude, because of the rattus. But a punk band with a keyboard it's something unusual. The eight minute song "Down in the Sewer" is closer to progressive rock than punk. "Princess of the street" is blues... after 77 they continue to explore different style. "The Men in black" LP is electronic rock, "Aural Sculpture" sounds soul music. Songs structure, lyrics and elaborated sounds from Black and White, The Raven, La Folie, Feline, etc have nothing to see with a 2 minutes 3-4 chords typical punk song. The Stranglers are unclassifiable and it's why they are unique
Loved this song when it first came out. Used to play it on all the music systems we sold in the Trident Superstore in Shepherds Bush! Still love it and brings back grear memories of the early 1980's.
Wow, this was my generation and I've never heard it before..... what an amazing song!!!! Omg, I'm hooked on it... can't get enough of it... boy did I miss out back then, dang!
Golden brown texture like sun Lays me down with my mind she runs Troughout the night No need to fight Never a frown with golden brown Every time just like the last On her ship tied to the mast To distant lands Takes both my hands Never a frown with golden brown Golden brown finer temptress Through the ages she´s heading west From far away, stays for a day Never a frown with golden brown Never a frown with golden brown (4x)
My favourite all time track. I have a very few select songs i go to when i feel down. This is one. Masterpiece. Dire straits comes second with Sultans of sing and they also get another one in the top ten with Telegraph road. Simon and Garfunkel get in with The Boxer.
Depuis sa sortie en 1981 , j' aime cette musique et ne me lasse pas de l' écouter, il y a eu plusieurs version , mais perso celle là est pour moi la meilleure . Merci au chanteur et aux musiciens ? Bravo...
The variety of music in the 80s was amazing... you would never get an 'odd ball' but magic song like this in the modern top playing songs on the radio now....
I agree, the early 80s up till about '84 were highly creative. For me, '66-'68 was the absolute peak for music with psychedelia, but the early 80s was exciting in another way. I hear nothing in the charts that remotely interests me now, but to be fair there are some acts bubbling under that could have been great with more backing.
It reminds me when I was young, six year old, this song played on the radio who stood in the kitchen. My father always smoked in the kitchen, I've got good memories of this song, it reminds me of my dad before my parents divorced. I'm from Belgium and at that time it was a real hit.
As an early teen I first heard the amazing album "Feline" ..a masterpiece. Such a sad day sending love from Seattle to the Greenfield family and the bandmates.
Just listening to this song gives me past life feelings of being a kid in the 70s/80s. Gives me the chills and weirds me out but a fuckin great song! I love golden brown thankyou THE STRANGLERS for creating it❤️🙏🏻❤️
Haunting, hypnotic and elegant. A beautifully dreamy song by one of my favourite bands, The Stranglers from the excellent album which is called 'Feline' (1982). I also recommend their very first album 'Rattus Norvegicus' (1979) which is an absolute classic. Totally different to the style of music thats played on 'Golden Brown' but every one of the songs on it are truly excellent.
I listened to this song at least 50 times 1 night on a loop after about 40 extacy tablets (on a 2 day binge that is) very powerful shit great fucking night still love it
God damn, that brings back memories. Bloody hell, it took me back. Quality record. Thanks for uploading and helping me relive the memories of that time for all of 3.30!
50's 60's 70's 80's Music will always be the most beautiful & the most expressive... The Industry won't let the beauty back in! I know it's out there...
I've been listening to this song for thirty eight years and I still don't know what makes it so hauntingly compelling. Last night I wondered whether it's because it presents decadence so softly that it amounts to a hymn, but it probably won't do.
No, what makes it „hauntingly compelling“ is actually just the fact that it’s not written in a common key or time signature and also the mixing does its part. Nothing else really sounds like this and that’s the reason
@@Buz-Lunch-Punx You're wrong. There's even a video interview with a member of The Stranglers on here and he confirms that Golden Brown was definitely about Heroin.
An absolute classic. Has a unique,catchy sound to it,especially due to the harpsichord and the lyrics are very simple,but also very cleverly written,...... Hugh Cornwall,states,"Golden Brown works on two levels,it,s about heroin and also about a girl."Essentially the lyrics describe how "both provided me with pleasureble times". :-)
...heard this for the first time on the radio today...yeah...I was born in 1978, so, a bit before my time. ANYWAY! I looooooved it! And am so sad that it has only just come into my life... I just love it when I stumble across great music by accident. I mean, great music is great music right? Who cares when, where or who?

traveled between two islands (Malta &Gozo) in the Mediterranean today and this song became my theme song for the ominous cloudy day and my adventure. I love this song even when it’s not cloudy! The “golden brown” represents for me the limestone bricks of the ancient buildings here, at least that’s the meaning I derived for myself today ;) it was perfect harmony!

The only song that that would stop my son from crying back in 81, screamed from the day he was born until he was 5 months,this song reminds me of him
Absolutely fantastic, brings back great memories, happy times
Golden brown texture like sun
Lays me down with my might she runs
Throughout the night
No need to fight
Never a frown with golden brown
Every time just like the last
On her ship tied to the mast
To distant lands
Takes both my hands
Never a frown with golden brown
Golden brown finer temptress
Through the ages she's heading west
From far away
Stays for a day
Never a frown with golden brown
Never a frown
With golden brown
Never a frown
With golden brown
..Never a frown
with golden brown..

Its about heroin
It's 5/4 time signature is quite special, like Brubeck's "Take 5" , Jethro Tull's "Living In The Past"
Of course it's about heroin ... far too many of the lyrics are clearly explaining that...excellent track
I agree it has a mysterious quality to it. Its mildly upbeat, mellow, and vaguely haunting all at once with its repetitive melody. I also read its about heroin.
This is a beautiful & underrated piece of music that perfectly captures the spirit of its context to make it greater than the sum of its parts.

How can anyone give this New Wave masterpiece ballad a thumbs down! A classic from a vastly underrated band.
