    Step back and watch the sweet thing
    Breaking everything she sees
    She can take my darkest feeling
    Tear it up, till I'm on me knees
    Plug into her electric cool
    Where things bend and break and shake to the rule
    Talking fast couldn't tell me something
    I would shed my skin for you
    Talking fast on the edge of nothing
    I would break my back for you
    Don't know why, don't know why
    Things vaporise and rise to the sky
    And we tried so hard
    And we looked so good
    And we lived our lives in black
    But something about you felt like pain
    You were my sunny day rain
    You were the clouds in the sky
    You were the darkest sky
    But your lips spoke gold and honey
    That's why I'm happy when it rains
    I'm happy when it pours
    Looking at me enjoying something
    That feels like, feels like pain to my brain
    And if I tell you something
    You take me back to nothing
    I'm on the edge of something
    You take me back
    And I'm happy when it rains
    And I'm happy when it rains
    And I'm happy now
    Oh I'm happy when it rains
    Oh I'm happy when it rains

    What a flood of emotions, just returned to me - Now, I'm in tear's as I write. In the 80's this was my motto, "I'm happy when it rains" and I still use it, today. This song not only reminds me of hanging out with my Goth friends, but I'm deeply reminded of my father. He use to love the rain so much, it was no surprise to watch him dancing in the rain.
    I was born to be Goth and I still am... !!! Stupid people, still ask about the black clothes, but I just say "Wearing black in the rain, makes me feel the happiest". That's the advantage of getting older, is that, I can afford to buy kick-ass clothes, boots, shoes, and I have pounds of silver rings. I still even have my first pair of original Doc Martens, 28 hole, lace-ups, with exposed brass eyelets' - remember those? The kids at the university, where I teach, they take notice of me almost instantly, so, I will play some obscure Goth song, during the midterms and finals; if, they can identify the band and title, they get extra credit. I've fostered Gothliness down to new generations, so, I'm called the "Goth-father".
    The Jesus and Mary Chain, were still just baby's when they made this video. I don't think they even needed to shave, yet... !!! This song is a glorious thing... !!! I love you, Dad... !!!

      some understand and some just don't... you did nothing wrong... it's just that good music is not appreciated anymore, music is like Mc Donalds nowadays, fast consume and throw away... not that healthy but it fills you for the moment, i got to this video because my brother introduced me to jesus and mary chain.. and today it's 2 months since cancer took him away from this world, sitting here on youtube remembering better days listening to good music on his yamaha hifi... :-(

    Step back and watch the sweet thing
    breaking everything she sees
    she can take my darkest feeling
    tear it up till i'm on me knees
    plug into her electric cool
    where things bend and break
    and shake to the rule
    talking fast couldn't tell me something
    i would shed my skin for you
    talking fast on the edge of nothing
    i would break my back for you
    don't know why, don't know why
    things vaporise and rise to the sky
    and we tried so hard
    and we looked so good
    and we lived our lives in black
    but something about you felt like pain
    you were my sunny day rain
    you were the clouds in the sky
    you were the darkest sky
    but your lips spoke gold and honey
    that's why i'm happy when it rains
    i'm happy when it pours
    looking at me enjoying something
    that feels like feels like pain
    to my brain
    and if i tell you something
    you take me back to nothing
    i'm on the edge of something
    you take me back
    and i'm happy when it rains

    Happy Melancholy..... These played a big part in my life which revolved around live music back in the late 1980s. I followed The Marychain round for several years and bought everything they released and sadly lost interest after Automatic. Still got all my vinyl tucked away - albums, singles, 10s, 12s, picture discs, gatefolds and so on which I'd love to play again. Discovered my Upside Down teeshirt recently. Listening to this today has stirred my emotions and I really wish I could revisit those days. Happy happy times...... It's embarrassing to think I tried to look like William Reid at the time and I probably looked more like Beryl Reid. What a dick I must have looked. Very tempted to go and see them tour again just for old time sake as I've heard they're out and about.

      It is amazing! But I can't escape the opening 4 seconds of "Head On" as the best intro into any song I have ever heard.

    Great song and great band. It was probably during the nineties that I first heard them, especially remembering hearing sometimes always. Then getting more into them. If only RUclips was around during the nineties I would have been in music bliss. They're so cute. Love them.

    I know this may sound silly but this is something I have been wanting to say for a while. I have loved the 80's ever since I was a teenager. In fact, I have loved the oldies. They are much more meaningful and inspiring. However, since my knowledge in music isn't as broad, I got quickly tired of listening to the same old love songs ( in specific the 80's ballads).
    However, as I grew older I found myself interested in other types of 80's music. But I did not know what "genre" it was,the only thing I knew I was always drawn towards the electric and acoustic guitar sounds. Whenever something like this played I would get happy and excited. It took me a while to find out I love UK's alternative rock, post punk, indie rock, and Britpop,dream pop all related to them. But it really wasn't until I watched the movie "Lost in Translation" that lit my bulb!! It led me to find out more about this band and look for more of this type." Now it's probably my favorite band!!! I listen to them almost daily. I also love the 60's sounds, such as "the clientele' and Jarvis Cocker's " Magic works"
    Anyway, some suggestion on music bands or songs would be very much appreciated. I want to listen to what finally makes me happy!
