    watched this back in 85 and this changed my life. This is the best ever version of this song as it features Gary Marx playing the Ebow Guitar. On first and last none of the others play on it as the writer of the song Wayne Hussey played all Guitars and Bass. This was Gary Marxs last ever performance as he played this Old Grey Whistle Test Performance and went off to form Ghost Dance. The very night before at the Brighton Gig with the band he climbed onto the Pa and threw his guitar to the ground and stormed off. Gary Marx does not get enough credit for his time in the band. He wrote the music for 4 of the bands best ever songs. Nine While Nine. Heartland. Some kind of Stranger and First and last. Oh and Poison Door.

      Thanks for info, I only noticed his playing in this vid even tho I've watched it so many times, I was only 10 but I remember the atmosphere of the time in Dublin: My estate was mainly Metalheads though one side of the surrounding area had lots of Punks and Goths, and the other was more Mod, Ska and Skinhead....it was a smorgasbord of great music, much of which I still listen to today. The Sisters definitely stood out as one of the leading alternative bands of the time along with New Model Army. I just soaked it all up. Cheers.

    The Sisters had evolved from being a very good band in 1983 to only two years later becoming a rock outfit for all of us to marvel at with their groovy ghoulie spooky psychedelic imagery and the tongue in cheek manner which it was all served up, while never failing to deliver compositions which were nothing short of shimmering jewels.

    ▪ Sisters of Mercy ▪ Marian ▪
    In a sea of faces, in a sea of doubt
    In this cruel place your voice above the maelstrom
    In the wake of this ship of fools I'm falling further down
    If you can see me, Marian, reach out and take me home.....
    I hear you calling Marian
    Across the water, across the wave
    I hear you calling Marian
    Can you hear me calling you to
    Save me, save me, save me from the
    Grave...
    Marian
    Marian, there's a weight above me
    And the pressure is all too strong
    To breathe deep
    Breathe long and hard
    To take the water down and go to sleep
    To sink still further
    Beneath the fatal wave
    Marian I think I'm drowning
    This sea is killing me
    I hear you calling Marian
    Across the water, across the wave
    I hear you calling Marian
    Can you hear me calling you to
    Save me, save me, save me from the
    Grave...
    Marian

    The song just came to Hussey in the studio and he recorded everything right there. But when Taylor heard the tape, he initially didn’t like it. ”Sounds like Siouxsie & The Banshees”, he said. Hussey left the studio, devastated. Next day when he returned, the engineer said ”listen to this”. He pressed play and through the monitors came ”In a sea of faces …”. Given that it could take months for Taylor to finish the lyrics for just one song, this was remarkable. And even to this day, he has to sing ”Marian” on every gig.

      I used to wander in there after going to gigs in the 90s in London(I'm from Dublin) and I always loved that the main floor was Goth even though I was a Metalhead, I'd spend more time on that floor anyway.....still listen to this regularly.
