- 1987 video of Siouxsie covering the song written by Bob Dylan and The Band, with this version initially performed by Julie Driscoll with Brian Auger and The Trinity in 1968.
Siouxsie has always been and will always be one of the great female vocalists to come out of the Punk era. She has a timeless sound and beauty that cannot be replicated by today's current crop of wannabes, no matter how hard they coerce their sound engineers to do so.
probably the best metamorphosis a music could get into... its virtually another music...and in my opinion one of the best things Siouxsie recorded..
Just love this
Absolutely Fabulous
Well it's okay I gue-ahh....I totally see what you did there.
I always thought she looked like a powerful sorceress.
She definitely channeled the dark side. Tinderbox is an awesome album that I believe was written about the coming times prophesied in Revelation. Music stars channel the supernatural
have you ever seen a more beautiful group of people singing an awesome song such as this?
Best cover of this song ever!
2019 still listening to good music 🤩🤩🤩
Blows away Bob Dylan's version
2019
"Bring me..." "A knitting needle?" "A KNITTING NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDLE!" (slap) "Oh!"
My favorite video of them of all time. That and "Killing Jar"
DLarryable O.K.
I love how Siouxsie looks out the back window of the carriage LOL I love Siouxsie!!!!!
Absolutely fabulous!
Best version of this song I think to ever have been produced. It just flows much better.
This was the very first 7" single I bought as a teenager. Still love you Siouxsie! x
She is a Goddess.
Nah, just a woman. But WHAT a woman!!!
If your memory serves you well
We were gonna meet again and wait
So I'm goin' to unpack all my things
And sit before it gets too late
No man alive will come to you
With another tale to tell
But you know that we shall meet again
If your memory serves you well
This wheel's on fire
Rolling down the road
Best notify my next of kin
This wheel shall explode
If your memory serves you well
I was gonna confiscate your lace
And wrap it up in a sailor's knot
And hide it in your case
If I knew for sure that it was yours
But it was oh so hard to tell
And you know that we shall meet again
If your memory serves you well
This wheel's on fire
Rolling down the road
Best notify my next of kin
This wheel shall explode
If your memory serves you well
You'll remember that you're the one
That called on me to call on them
To give you your favors done
And after every plan had failed
And there was nothing more to tell
You knew that we would meet again
If your memory served you well
This wheel's on fire
Rolling down the road
Best notify my next of kin
This wheel shall explode
If your memory serves you well
If your memory serves you well
I love Siouxsie! She's always been unique, avant-garde, and kickass! :)
I didn't always like their videos, but this is really one of the best abuses of mid-80's video fade technology.
Siouxsie & The Banshees were GREAT in the movie Out Of Bounds
Ah man I’d forgotten what a babe Siouxsie Sioux was. When I was a mere sounder of a goth many beers ago Siouxsie was mine, all mine. Fuckin hell those were the good old days
Love this cover! And Video!
I agree. I have always loved this but nowadays it seems to have more prescence than ever!
that song rips !!!! awesome !!!
great cover!!!!
Only a yobbo would thumb this down. Just brilliant, pure art by every measure.
Luv the video.Luv Siouxie.Luv the song.The most charismatic singer and band ever.Always a breadth of fresh air.Luv em forever.Absolutely Fabulous.
This song makes me feel like I'm floating in space
They almost didn't release this version. It was not until after they recorded it that they found out it was co-written by Bob Dylan and The Band's Rick Danko. The Band's original version appeared on their 1968 debut, Music from Big Pink.
Best cover ever.
very good perfomance :D
She used to scare the shit out of me as a kid. Now she is my most loved female artist ever
I'm glad this video is back up. It was taken down a while ago.Siouxsie is so possessive in this video. She is great.
probably the best metamorphosis a music could get into... its virtually another music...and in my opinion one of the best things Siouxsie recorded.. The chords and sound atmosphere are a bit transcendental somehow...
Just love this
this might possibly be better than the original..... but its a close one, they are both great
+pjw85 I was just thinking that this is so good that I actually have no desire to hear the original. I can't imagine it being any better.
pjw85, so odd, I was thinking the exact same thing, as the video loaded!
"Better" is hard but it's so interesting that they heard a Siouxsie and the Banshees song in the original and made it sound this good
Nineteen years between Julie, Brian & The Trinity's psychedelic gem and this: the Siouxsie interpretation seems fresh and shows new facets to a great song.
I agree 100%
This track reminds me of great times, going around with my old mates during the 1980s, we would go to a club which would play our sort of music (Siouxie the Cult etc) then we would finish off the night by going to the ruins of Great Witley court in Worcestershire (or simular) during the early hours...then unfortunately most of us 'grew up' and got married etc.....great memories...Siouxie is superb, I don't see any bands with her quality these days in my opinion!
Yes, Canada's in the house !!! ‼♥‼
AGREE 150% Siouxsie is such a HOTTIE and a good artist.
I just get crazy with the drums of this song! reminds me something like a battle song!
if your memory serves you well!!
I know I've done a good job as a parent when I hear siouxsie on my daughter's playlist😅
one of the best bands ever, siouxsie and the banshees, an exellent cover
Siouxsie and the boys show up with a great song and a video that looks like a late Hammer horror film. But there needs to be a HD version of this uploaded to RUclips.
great video....thanks for posting!
Oh yassss hunny yassssss
Why can't people seem to live a music genre without hating on everyone else for once?
Siouxsie said if she had known it was a Dylan song (she despised him), she wouldn't have recorded it.
I love this video it reminds of a hammer film I want a carriage like that!
yeah!! I agree with you!!
I was all of 15 years old when this was released...... Now nudging the Big 5-0..... #wherehasthetimegone
But can you still get it up?
There are not many things better than Siouxsie!!
Out of all the covers of this song, I have to say this is my fave. I almost like it better than Dylan's original version! Hehe! :)
Siouxsie has such raw charisma. This is one of many covers from _Through the Looking Glass_ that are superior to the originals.
Siouxsie é a mulher mais linda da música.
Linda, linda demais.
I love this video it reminds me of a Hammer film
Similar to the video to Spellbound in some respects
She's every Disney villainess wrapped up into one in this video.
I love her versions of Dear Prudence and The Passenger, but this still leaves me cold. I didn't listen to the original for many years, only to discover that it is a beautifully haunting song. So strange, because Siouxsie is the queen of beautifully haunting...
I know this is a cover, and just about everyone and their brother-in-law in the music world has done a version of it, but Siouxsie's is The Best and she and her Banshees just about take ownership of this tune, IMO
not punk, not new wave, not gothic, a very unique band and a very unique talent !!
We miss you !!
Looking at Siouxsie's outfit, I can't help but imagine that Selena watched this video at one point.
Amen to that!
classic!!
P E R F E C T
Best cover version ever!
awesome
too good
What's interesting about the Banshees is that they were never an instrument heavy band, yet everything I've ever heard from them, in terms of songs, always had a drum, bass and guitar riff, even for thirty seconds, that's unmistakable. I don't know who's playing guitar here, I can name twenty guitarists in twenty different bands and what they drink and what picks they use, but I can't say they always record something memorable.
a classic
Publicidad RECONCHESUMARE loco... NO NOS INTEREEESA!!!! Grande Sioux!
No need to watch the VHS tape of Siouxie's music videos, they are all here now.
@Daffneyfan Hey hey now! I love THAT show, Siouxsie AND Julie Driscoll's version!
Yes you are.
yessssssssss!
what a great song........She is absolutely gorgeous......I d love to play my bass next to her
Silly me, I never realised that THIS song (re-done by someone else) was the same song as the beginning of "AbFab".
another dylan great
back then music was 'art'
@seahorse19007 They both deserve to be there.
@subg88
LOL yes, because we both know that it was Bob Dylan ;)
The song can be found on The Basement Tapes LP.
I love how her makeup seems to have a touch of the 1920s in it.
NEW WAVE OLD FASHION
FIRE
So do I in fact all Siouxsie's covers in my opinion are better than the originals and some even thought the likes of Helter Skelter and Dear Prudence were The Banshees own songs anyway that show brilliant she is at reworking originals
Hard to compare, but I can't see anything interesting in original Dear Prudence. Of course I understand the importance of The Beatles themselves (although I think that The Kinks were even slightly better), but it just sounds like some hippy boys on acid or whatever grabbed the nearest instrument and wanted to somehow save their memory of some trip. And who knows, if they would still be talked about with the same rate, if it wasn't for Lennon murder?
true
@PatrickDC202 wow. VERY VERY well said, sir.
@infinitefathom no, I think this is the best version of it, Siouxsie did an excellent job with it
@EPbabe I think you should bring it all back again! Why the heck not?
@Mr1991ladarius That was Julie Driscoll's cover, it's here,look it up, it's actually really good.
now i wonder if there was a video for their 'little johnny jewel' cover
LMFAO:0) I couldn't have said it better myself.
I'm 35! Older than House is! LOL
Obviously the intention!
ithis is one of thefew cases wher i like the cover better than the original
I love her Cruella D'Evil look at 1:57 and 2:27
Why was the video taken down?
There's nothing wrong with it and it's Siouxsie!
Who doesn't love such a Goddess?
@RDBeatnik she wore that for show, she isn't really a Nazi or anything
still is
ab fab!
I don't understand why everyone is sooo upset about this cover. I mean damm it's S&B, did you really think they were going to sing EXACTLY like the og. It u want to hear the og version then wacth Ab Fab.
and the banshees
Although this is the official video - it is monaural, NOT stereo .... To share it, I will have to use one of the other YT versions .... kinda sucks ...
looks like the footage from spellbound
she should ve teamed teamed up with kate bush back then .... fits like hammer to nail both their styles !!
