I ran a mobile disco for ten years, 75-85 and played this for years all over the east midlands. It was so popular and everywhere I went, those in the know requested it over and over again, yet....it never made it. Brilliant bit of 80s dance!
I never thought in a million years that when I searched for this tune I would actually find it! Was just remembering the 80's with the wife and trying to remember all the South Yorkshire bands. Thanks for posting it!
Im seeing all of these European comments ... and that's very cool. Just wanted to let you guys know that this was also a huge hit on the Houston alternative club circuit in the late 80's, early 90's too! I've still got my copies on vinyl from back in the day! Great great song!
They were from Stannington, Sheffield. They used to practice in the old band hut in the infant school field. Russ went on to own Twentieth century clothing in Sheffield before he sadly passed away. Amazing band... saw them many times... best show ever was in Hillsborough park, the old Sheffield show, radio Hallam recorded it and later broadcasted it.... Good times :)
OMG!!!! I never thought I would find this song when I typed it in, but here it is. Takes me back to school in Rotherham and Vision being top of the local charts before the charts went national. Thanks so much for putting this on!
It was always a toss up where to go on a Saturday night the Limit club on West St or upstairs in Steelies(Top Rank ) great tunes played at both but always thought Steelies nicked it. First came across Vision at the Gas Light club in Buxton fucking mental place after midnight.
Brilliant!.......I remember seeing them in Rotherham in the 80s when this was out. I took my 12" copy of the single with me and got them to sign it, still have it now.
I was DJing in Lincolnshire & what was then South Humberside. I don't know which of the Scunthorpe DJs first played this, but after that, any DJ not to have this in his 12 inch box had no credibility. I'd like to claim being the 1st but honestly, it was probably Bunny (Paul Hutchinson or Al Buckley.. 7 inch single was not cool. only 12 inches was acceptable. This was the only track that I would play more than once a night, sometimes the crowd chanted for it.... AMAZING. To DJ and have the honour of pleasing a crowd with a few minutes of music that someone else created is awesome. Thanks for the Vision memories.
Those were the days my friend!!.. the early 80's was such a bottleneck for creativity, fantastic groups, fantastic names, and most important sublime music!! 😁
I was 18 when this came out and I've still got the 12". I really miss those days I wish I could take Us back. This is a Good Version Thank You for posting.
Still have mine too. I'll never part with it. Just sent it to a mate in Perth Australia, reminding him of when we danced to it un a pub in Stapleford Notts. One of the beat dance tunes at that time, immense!
John Betteridge M8 I’m from Long Eaton, Small World eh. I was in Notts Rock City, Zhivago’s The Garage Sometimes DJ Jonathan would switch all the Lazers on for a Track usually Killing Joke 80’s ‘I’m Living in the 80’s Nirvana ripped it off. I ain’t got a turntable anymore. Can You remember The Danse Society?👍🙏
@@brrrainy5477 Very small world! Lived in Bulwell at the time but we were invited over to Stavo by a couple of lasses. Lived on William St Long Eaton for a couple of years in the earl 90's. Enjoyed many a night out there, brilliant takeaways too. DJ Johnathon was brilliant. 'Change' by Killing Joke with the 'lightning' lights going was my favourite. D.A.F Der Mussolini too... Rock City was something else, lighting way ahead of it's time. Love Danse Society...Heaven Is Waiting 12", 2000 light years from home!!! Still have all my vinyl plus 1st Technics Hi Fi I bought at 17 😂 Best days ever, we were so lucky to have lived it. My daughters mate is 80's mad, music cars and clothes. Would go back in time if she could. Went Garage every Tuesday, 50p entry 50p a pint. Rock City Thursdays, 'student night'. Feel sorry for my kids generation as there's no scenes for them to get into, no styles, just boozing and crap music. Keep the memories going mate👍
John Betteridge Thank You for reply John I was blasting Never Mind the Bollocks in the Shower earlier. There’s NEVER been an Album to better it. All the Music and Genre’s Our Generation’s been privy too. I wouldn’t swap places with a 21 year old, not for nothing. The Music was so Fine in the 80’s there was a hierarchy and snobbery to it. A lot of Bands cast aside because of it. Maybe it’s like that each Generation.You Take Care and it’s Good the Young Un likes some of Our Stuff. 👍🙏Xx
Wow i can't believe it first time ever seeing the video to this amazing song, I still own the 12 ince vinel of this and remember playing it over and over while getting ready to go to the New romantic club in Sheffield called Pennies, great memories thanks for this 😊❤
Sheffield music - as good today as it's always been! I have very fond memories of dancing to this at the school disco. Vision were brilliant and way ahead of their time.
This band came from Rotherham, south yorks, They once played live in the little mister, before it came, the little mister, in North Anston Sheffield I recall.. were very big in Italy, got to no1. 80's forever. LOL.
Wow! Just stumbled onto this. I love when I find New Wave/No Wave I've never heard. It's got that swingy English disco sound that is both playful and raw. Thanks for posting!
Remember this from years ago and I meet these guys in Virgin summer 1983, think you played The Joint in Milton Keynes if any of you guys are there and remember that :)
My eyes burn in the darkness Waiting outside your home A life that's truly immortal A lord of the unknown I only go out in the evening Never seeing the sun Draining the blood from my victims To give me the strength to go on Vanishing just as the dawn comes In vaults below the ground Taking life from the humans A circle that goes round and round I'll never strike when expected I'm just a shadow at night My victims' eyes full of horror As they feel the terror and fright My eyes burn in the darkness Waiting outside your home A life that's truly immortal A lord of the unknown I only go out in the evening Never seeing the sun Draining the blood from my victims To give me the strength to go on
I saw them a williams bar in North Anston and at Tiffany's night club in Rotherham,great 80,s band that should have gone on to bigger things.I still have a signed 12" vinyl,sadly no record player to play it on!!
My sister saw them in Williams bar, and I think the Dragon Dinno. I used to go to Tiffs from Anston. Plastic palm trees and chicken in a basket. You could keep a girlfriend for more than 2 minutes in them days.
The Limit in Sheffield was amazing .Saw OMD there playing live in front of only about 80-100 people before they made it big. They were brilliant. Any Sheffielders out there that remember the Buccaneer in the 70's, another great Sheffield pub that played stuff like Zeppelin, Deep purple etc. Happy Happy Days and gorgeous girls.
Saw plenty of bands at the limit even U2 worst gig ever never liked them from then on. I miss the Limit and throwing myself around the dance floor with the other nutters to pssyche by killing joke happy days ..
Damn! I wish I was a teen in England 🏴 during the late ‘70’s / early ‘80’s!!! (Why did Grand Dad have to shove off for Virginia in the late 1600’s???)
What a great flashback! Takes me back to Numbers in Houston and Backstreet in Austin dancing with my best friend Esther. Anyone found a CD release for this song?
@@moogdome2562 , there was a whole crowd of us who visited Scene 2 Rotters on a regular basis (Fri/Sat) from about 80 through to late 82 when I left to go to Sheff Uni. Still visited Rotters occasionally 83-86 but most clubbing in Sheff as Scene 2 Rotters had past its best by 83.
Boy, we must have been there at the same time. I was beaten up by skinheads in Pennys, I was glassed. I went to Rotters too. The longest bar in Europe, the bar girls went around on Rollerskates.I went to Retford Porterhouse, The Dragon Dinnington, and the leadmill. happy days.
as did i ;-) if NO other song brought me to the dance floor cuz i was feeling like a song snob, THIS one always does :-D that synth line is soooo friggin catchy...
@deemcful I'm 45 as well, but don't have the old memories of this song. Living in the US I didn't hear it till about 10 years ago when I was searching for songs I didn't have by the band Lucifer's Friend. Loved it from the first. Most of my friends that heard it got into Vision as well. Great group.
Ye I remember.. I also remember the cubicles at the back with the curtains. Chicken in a basket, plastic palm trees, and the band. There was a little couple always dancing. I tried to look cool like Brian Ferry, but go that drunk I'd Trip over girls handbags, while they danced around them.I'd sick in the taxi going back to Dinnington.I remember trying to pluck up courage, and stand on the edge of the dance floor, getting more and more drunk, until I let myself go and spun around the room like a whirling derbyshire. Get home in the early hours, buzzing in my ears, my pockets empty, blinding headache, head and room spinning, then do the same thing the following weekend. What fun. Those were the days. cheers. Pete.
i saw them at the sheffield show when it used to be held in hillsborough park i am friends with the female singer who used to do the live gigs with them have got the album Insight..
They played this live as well as the follow up song Love Dance at Peartree bridge Milton keynes... One of eddie Richards nights ;) Great times ............
saw them at steeleys in sheffield around the time of its release..later to have gary steadman on guitar....from classix nouveaux.....good tune along with love dance..
the video played at 'numbers' was a special extended mix created by 'house' dj (at the time) - robert the brit. he also did one of gary numan's "change your mind" (mixed with parts ripped from the flick 'altered states'). i would love to get my hands on those!!! memories.
they came from rotherham and andy beaumont went to thrybergh school i saw them perform this at spurley hey school before its release i expected them to go on and be massive but the music scene changed
oh yeah. proper futurist tune..in fact is there any better..to be fair, only nowhere girl, b movie comes anywhere close in my eyes..oh ok kraftwerk, we are the robots AND Human league Path of least Resistance..maybe. anyone differ in opinion? sound of the crowd maybe? or a man could get lost-soft cell? WEBBY-notts, lol
Chris Simon Yes well in tooon there Chris, let's not forget early Visage - Tar, Mind of a Toy and of course Fade to Grey. The Cell of course, what about Sex Dwarf and Bedsitter, there's also Japan - god how many times did I see them boys - what an atmospheric sound, especially Khan on bass. And of course, there is always the god of futurist style - the one and only Numan - Are Friends Electric still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up! Any more tooons you old but still futurist dudes and dudettes - I am thinking a Facebook page coming on.......
nag nag nag by cabaret voltaire, warm leatherette by the normal, ricky's hand by fad gadget, der mussolini by daf, los ninos del parque by liaisons dangereuses, dead eyes opened by severed heads, being boiled by the human league (LP or demo version), sharevari by a number of names, al naafiysh by hashim, clear by cybotron, chase by giorgio moroder, 70s and 80s Italo and French space disco, every Kraftwerk after the first three LPs, Wendy Carlos, Jean Michel Jarre, tuxedomoon, suicide, tangerine dream, Anne Clark, Front 242
Guy on the synth is Andrew Beaumont. He is from Rotherham. He was dj at Dalton youth club when this song was released.
Still here
Dec 2024
I ran a mobile disco for ten years, 75-85 and played this for years all over the east midlands. It was so popular and everywhere I went, those in the know requested it over and over again, yet....it never made it. Brilliant bit of 80s dance!
That's hella cool!
It was super popular in the early 80s at Club Max in St.John’s , Newfoundland.
Dude. These guys and B-Movie sums it all up really. Mansfield early eighties was a cool place to start adult life!
I never thought in a million years that when I searched for this tune I would actually find it! Was just remembering the 80's with the wife and trying to remember all the South Yorkshire bands. Thanks for posting it!
What a song!, everybody hit the dancefloor when this came on in the early 80's...😁.. Quality!!!.. 😍
Im seeing all of these European comments ... and that's very cool.
Just wanted to let you guys know that this was also a huge hit on the Houston alternative club circuit in the late 80's, early 90's too!
I've still got my copies on vinyl from back in the day!
Great great song!
I was lucky enough to meet the guy on the keyboard at the Aquarius in chesterfield when this was released, a really nice guy.
They were from Stannington, Sheffield. They used to practice in the old band hut in the infant school field. Russ went on to own Twentieth century clothing in Sheffield before he sadly passed away. Amazing band... saw them many times... best show ever was in Hillsborough park, the old Sheffield show, radio Hallam recorded it and later broadcasted it.... Good times :)
the limit club sticky floor and plastic glasses, great times.
OMG!!!! I never thought I would find this song when I typed it in, but here it is. Takes me back to school in Rotherham and Vision being top of the local charts before the charts went national.
Thanks so much for putting this on!
Simply wonderful memories of The Joint in Milton Keynes :)
Rock City Futurist Night, Nottingham, 1983. :)
I can remember buying the 12inch of this record from Roulette Records in the Worksop Precinct, and still play it today
Rotherhams finest 👌.
@@nelvaldo.4850 nice that tha’t still ere in Dec2024 cocker
New Romantic style that's what this amazing band was. And what a style they had... Lovely looking boys making lovely music. Love everything they made
OMG!!! Mansfield in the 80's in the Eight Bells and the Horse & Jockey!!! those who were there would remember!!!
The flamingo has my memories for this, in Mansfield. OMG ❤❤
Horse and jockey. Red lion .
Saw this band at the Top Rank Sheffield in a battle of the bands competition. Sounded great live and deserved winners on the night
It was always a toss up where to go on a Saturday night the Limit club on West St or upstairs in Steelies(Top Rank ) great tunes played at both but always thought Steelies nicked it. First came across Vision at the Gas Light club in Buxton fucking mental place after midnight.

I've had this on a C60 audio tape since the 80's and was amazed to have found it on here.
My eyes burn in the darkness
Waiting outside your home
A life that's truly immortal
A lord of the unknown
I only go out in the evening
Never seeing the sun
Draining the blood from my victims
To give me the strength to go on
Vanishing just as the dawn comes
In vaults below the ground
Taking life from the humans
A circle that goes round and round
I'll never strike when expected
I'm just a shadow at night
My victims' eyes full of horror
As they feel the terror and fright
My eyes burn in the darkness
Waiting outside your home
A life that's truly immortal
A lord of the unknown
I only go out in the evening
Never seeing the sun
Draining the blood from my victims
To give me the strength to go on
Bang on!
@@chiphawkins42😂😂
I truly hate today.
Take me back.
I saw them a williams bar in North Anston and at Tiffany's night club in Rotherham,great 80,s band that should have gone on to bigger things.I still have a signed 12" vinyl,sadly no record player to play it on!!

Saw them at Dingwalls in Sheffield and then in Rotherham way, way back in the day.
This is super. Reminds me of the 'Hitman & Her' show
Fantastic! The rhythm-track evokes the very Devil himself dancing joyously on the tin-roof of your pitiful soul.
great song, remember dancing to this in rockfords nightclub in worksop.shame they didn't make it
Do you remember the carousel?. My ex-girlfriend had the wine seller. Dandies was another place.
Mark, I used to go to Rockfords in the precinct. We'd go to the vine, Unicorn, Queens head, Dandies, and the Carousel above the Halifax.
Wow! Love Love Love!!!!! I love these guys! Also a huge fan of Altered Images and Martha and the Muffins aka M+M!
Echo Beach. Still play it on guitar today. Love Altered images, Clair Grogan. I was telling someone about them the other day.
THANKS !!!!!

nice...new wave era....
i saw them at the sheffield show when it used to be held in hillsborough park i am friends with the female singer who used to do the live gigs with them have got the album Insight..
Great record that’s forever in my subconscious. I often wonder if Elton used the keyboard 🎹 riff for his 1984 hit, Passengers 🤷🏼♂️
Saw them at Matlock Pavilion brilliant band
They played this live as well as the follow up song Love Dance at Peartree bridge Milton keynes... One of eddie Richards nights ;) Great times ............
Have just my 45 copy here in Italy!!
my goodness i have the 12" single of this in my loft ... used to love it ! ... still very good though !
saw them at steeleys in sheffield around the time of its release..later to have gary steadman on guitar....from classix nouveaux.....good tune along with love dance..
Always loved this song when it was played at Punters Wine bars , Nottingham. Sheffield outfit who should have made IT BIG!
I worked at Punters in the 80's. Great place.
Classic played all through Derby in 80's
ALL TIME CLASSIC
the video played at 'numbers' was a special extended mix created by 'house' dj (at the time) - robert the brit. he also did one of gary numan's "change your mind" (mixed with parts ripped from the flick 'altered states'). i would love to get my hands on those!!! memories.
they came from rotherham and andy beaumont went to thrybergh school i saw them perform this at spurley hey school before its release i expected them to go on and be massive but the music scene changed
So dope
Steeleys!!!! Oh my God!!!! I'd forgotten about that place!!!
How can you forget upstairs at steelys definitely on par with the limit .
Yes, yes. Loughborough for me, 1983; Sammy's Nightclub on a Monday (the only night they played alternative stuff)
lets get sanctuary records to re issue this classic. get it in the charts
THIS IS BY FAR AN 80’s Tune that does it ....
B-Movie -another classic band from the very early eighties when us 'Futurists' where just that - futurists
oh yeah. proper futurist tune..in fact is there any better..to be fair, only nowhere girl, b movie comes anywhere close in my eyes..oh ok kraftwerk, we are the robots AND Human league Path of least Resistance..maybe.
