Hell yes turn it up sounds good right on fire WOMAN YOUR TO BLAME BUT THE CULTS MUSIC HAS ETRNIL FLAMES AND ALSO THIS BAND HAS TAMED THE AMERICAN HORSE
Outside Rain and She Sells Sanctuary, I never really listened to The Cult. Then I put Sonic Temple on Spotify and came across one of the greatest albums of all time. Now I have that album on vinyl and got the T-shirt too 😆
@@davidreed3246 I was listening to a song they played on Saturday Night Live called Times Like These and it sounded like The Cult. Guitar riffs and all…
I was maybe 6feet from him at buzz fest 96 long time ago . I had like a plastic beach ball through it his way he caught it ! Before he sang he mention to the crowd this is a ball ! That is as close as I come to an artist celebrity. 😆
I can listen to this song over and over and watch this incredible band nonstop! I have this on my walking playlist and it always kicks me in to overdrive!! Ian is a God!
One of the best bands EVER!!! Ian is such a performer. The whole package! And he is surprisingly sweet. He has a Jim Morrison vibe and a bit of mystery about him! Awesome guy.
LOVED these cats in the 80s. My brother met them in a bar in Van Couver,BC, Canada and said they were all real cool, down to earth guys who hung out and drank all night. They were really big at the time but it never went to their heads. God Bless em...
Never saw this interview as back in the day I would have been at work. Wow, Ian is so sweet and cool. What a strange interview lol. ICONIC Cult song She sells Sanctuary
This song has got to be in my top 3 and I can't even think of the other two right now. It's everything. Maybe it's not too late for me to see them live for the first time.
Probably not too late though I know nothing about this band. It wasn't too late for me to see Axl a few weeks ago and the hate above isn't appreciated. Voice, performance, music were all just fine and really special just to be able to have the chance to see them live and reunited.
It's tap dancing influenced by XVII Century European (French, to be more specific) sort of attitude and choreography (usage of heels). Watch "Le Roi Danse" (2000), it's excellent and features the incredible music of Jean-Baptiste Lully.
Growing up I had a good friend in the mid 80’s his dad had a huge Vinyl collection going back to Elvis, Louis Armstrong, Johnny Cash, Zeppelin, and so many more. When he would put The Cult on it stuck with me as the entire sound and energy was so unique. I am so thankful for those experiences that help form my well rounded Eclectic music appreciation
The Cult album "Love" has many great songs other than Santuary, from Hollow Man to Brother Wolf Sister Moon. Just great vocals and guitar riffs, still my favorite Cult album.
I recall first seeing Ian. He looked a lot like a native brother to me. Where has all the talent gone to ? Sigh, at least I was alive to hear all of the good music when i was a young man.
I will be 69 years old in a month. While I have heard parts of this song in the past tonight is the first time I have seen the band in a video! I have no words. They are electric!
I adore The Cult and I also adore the other band next to the interviewer (Blancmange). They have nothing in common but this means, I think, that when any kind of music is good and gives you positive vibrations, it doesn't matter if it is Rock or Pop or Classic.... Thanks UK for some of the greatest band in the world! Love from Italy!! Jr
There are paradoxical instances, at least in a lot of cases, in which "extremely negative" and "harmful" music brings those vibrations you mentioned; something like a highly refined 'schadenfraude', in the sense that some Art comes from deeply disturbed individuals/experiences, that connects with people who enjoy it without even thinking of it in a malicious way.
@TrainInVain Hahahaha jesus hell, why in the fuck do people feel the need to post something this hateful and vitriolic? Do you have ANY idea how to keep thoughts to yourself?
We finally had cable TV installed in 1985, and as soon as it was activated, The Cult "She Sells Sanctuary" was the first image that appeared right from the video's beginning. That was my first time discovering them and I was really enjoying the moment!
He was spot on about people searching for alternatives to the pop that was being thrust onto us by major labels. I was at this fucking huge Friday night party when I first heard the Cult. I went out the next day and bought 'Sun King', weed, powder and Jack Daniels. I woke up Sunday morning to find half naked strangers laying around my home. I had no idea how they go there.
I would've loved to hear a collaboration song with Ian Astbury and the equally incredible Michael Hutchence. Both with great voices! Michael a very rich baritone and Ian who could've hit the higher notes. And did I mention that they're both incredible frontmen for their bands? 🤤😍😛🙃 ✌& ❤ Michael.
Kids in the distant future will find this and, hearing it for the first time, will feel the same as we did those decades ago. Many bands create a masterpiece and this is the Cult's!
I grow up listening to this band and it is one of my most favorite bands and this band still is my favorite band and Ian you rock and your the best rock n roll band ever and still is one of the most best bands ever and I am a huge fan of the CULT i have all of there albums and a few posters but would love to have an autograph from the whole band and be able to meet them in real life and be able to shake your Hand Ian you are my idle and will always be my most favorite rock band ever ✌✌😎
I guess I’m similar to you. I have all the bands albums, many t-shirts, bootlegs and have seen them 51 times. Surprisingly though I have never met them
What a fabulous grp! Love this guys voice. Gr8 production..love this guys voice! So spot-on! So Jim Morrison-like! His voice could be that of Jim...u never know...
I still remember the first time I saw this vid shown on TV. I was so hypnotized and KNEW I wanted to be a musician. The drummer, Mark recording most of the album (but not Sanctuary even though he's in the vid) before he joined Big Country for their first album.
I remember playing this back in the day for my girlfriend at the time - her comment was “ this music just isn’t me “. Amazing how she’s been gone all these years………
Saw The Clut and Metallica together in Atlanta around 1988-89. The Cult was actually the headliner that night. I would say both bands were at the same level of their music careers and both on the verge to become the next rock giants. Of course we all know what level Metallica went to and personally I thought The Cult was the better of the 2 bands. And thats considering the fact that I loved Metallica in the 80s. But from that point on The Cult kinda just remained the same as Metallica exploded into one of the biggest metal bands in history. I always wonder why the Cult just fell off the map around 1990 when they seemed to be enroute to mega stardom after Electric was released. Scratching my head on this one
really ??? if he were not 'known'... not sure he look gorgeous or maybe with some bifocals glasses...but it's rock n' roll. Amy you should look around you to find a gorgeous looking guy ^^
It’s very interesting to hear how much Ian’s accent has changed over the years. His singing voice has taken a bit of a beating over the years but it’s hardly surprising with the lifestyle & passing decades. This interview would be from the period that we were seeing The Cult on every tour in places like St Austell and Brighton Top Rank. The epic gig that I’ll never forget was Brixton Academy on their return from the US. The Phoenix whilst sitting on my best mate’s shoulders. Seared into my memory. Fucking unforgettable.
😲 Damn!!!! That's awesome Saw GnR in Vegas Jan 1992, one of the best shows I've ever seen in my life. Got to see The Doors w/Ian Astrbury as frontman in Vegas 2003 & it was truly incredible. Bit of would have really loved to see the Cult 💓
Everybody was so chill back then nobody had mobile phones so people engaged differently, actually phoned peopled and made plans in advance. If you let someone down it was a big thing bonlast minute txt excuse.
I met the group back in 1987 in sea croft at the windmill hotel , they was staying there before there concert in Leeds, I had the privilege of having a few drinks with band , me and Ian was playing on the fruit machine together and sharing a few laughs , Always been a fan of the band , great band.
I loved the whole band, but Ian just had it all..the voice, the moves the looks. When he dressed in all black, with that long, black straight mane flying around, he reminded me of a sexy native american man riding shirtless on a wild horse through the plains or dancing around a ring of fire!! He also favored Jim Morrison too!🔥
@@AlexAlcyone Boy was he ever! I can't believe I never thought of that! I wonder if he was offered the role. He had that moody look like Jim...same body type, hair, face, dress and voice! Thanks for bringing that to my attention! Val did a good job acting, but Ian really favored him more in the face. Now, I want a see a re-make with Ian!
Me parece uno de los mejores vídeos clips de la banda..Soy un auténtico fan de ellos,de mis bandas favoritas que me han marcado forma de vestirme, entender la música y son auténticos artistas de música con mucha creatividad y han sabido adaptar a los años.. l voz de Ian es una maravilla…

Ian v bad manners... Who was the idiot bimbo in between
Saw them live many times in the 80's 👌
I agree 100% man
Well, we appreciated them in the LA 1980’s goth scene🖤
Definitely appreciated in my world.

Absolutely one of the most brilliant songs of all time.
Seminal 1980's track.
Vdd
Absolutely! Always cheers me when I hear it! ❤❤
Timeless rock classic
Agreed! Still one of the greatest road-trip songs ever.
The “Good Old Days” were so, so good! Ian’s voice is instantly recognizable. No one else has that tone.
2020 and still say this band was way underrated. A sound that cant be duplicated. Ian's voice is epic.
It’s 2021 and Dave Grohl and Foo Fighter is ripping off their sound!

Omg I love him 😍
sure, but... Nick Kershaw and Howard Jones were both great too, bit rocknroll purist he was...
I think he's very arrogant and pretentious.
He had the coolest foot shuffling....
I remember that little bastard clock in the corner of the screen, counting down the minutes until I had to get the school bus. I hated that clock.
I was thinking the same thing. Lol!!
😆 😆 😆
That’s hilarious ... CFFC💙🧡🔥
Feel your pain buddy! 🤬
So funny, seriously!
Thank you for that! 👊
Never in my life imagined that ian would sound that soft !!!! He's so gentle i'm in love
The Cult is still relevant and kicks ass after all these years.
We definitely had some of the best music ever! And, Ian is still hot to this day.
Amen.
How are they still relevant?
@@Seafarer-Ade they are touring at the moment. They will ALWAYS be relevant! Ian looks amazing and still belting out the hits!

He had the sweet look of innocence back at that age. Loved this band
…And surprisingly a very pleasant way of speaking in this interview.
One of the best bands EVER!!! Ian is such a performer. The whole package! And he is surprisingly sweet. He has a Jim Morrison vibe and a bit of mystery about him! Awesome guy.
❤❤
Yes, he came across as a normal dude, pretty serious and deep in some ways.
I saw him when he was singer for the Doors tour.
So you, know him personally....
I get that vibe every time I watch him do She Sells.
This interview is such a treasure. Ian is so young in this. Thank-you for sharing.
Killer song! Awesome and I love that foot work at the beginning of the song! I want to dance and rock!
Do it! How can you not? 🕺🏻
looks like the river dance, lol
I love this, l love Ian's movements, his stage prescence is absolutely electric on this song and his voice needs no words.
one of my favourite bands of the 80's! ❤️🎸
What a fucking band and what a fucking lead singer!! The Cult are true legends for all time. Fact!!!!!!!!!!
One of my favorite bands of all time. They are a treat live, I saw them in the 80s.
Kudos for name-checking March Violets, Sisters of Mercy and Balaam on daytime TV back in 1985. Impeccable goth credentials.
Ian is one of my favorite voices ever, but The March Violets are one of my favorite bands.
Ian exudes spirituality and sensuality. Mmmmm, yes, he is gorgeous on many levels.
Angel Deville straight up.
Yes indeedy sweetie. Ian & Duffy are such beautiful men.
Yeah, because how pretty or handsome someone is is part of spirituality. It makes sense that your profile pic is a plastic doll.
Derek Gleeson nothing wrong with his teeth. He was obviously very young here.
Sugar Jets how does she not know what spirituality is? Ian is a spiritual person.

This song has got to be in my top 3 and I can't even think of the other two right now.
It's everything. Maybe it's not too late for me to see them live for the first time.
Duffy is still a gun. Astbury’s voice is probably worse than Axl Rose’s.
Probably not too late though I know nothing about this band. It wasn't too late for me to see Axl a few weeks ago and the hate above isn't appreciated. Voice, performance, music were all just fine and really special just to be able to have the chance to see them live and reunited.
How this is not in a rock history format I will never understand...so ahead of thier time...COMPLETELY UNDERAPPRECIATED
Woooo! Downtown Julie Brown! Always had a crush on her! Ian is just too cool for these others there!
Cant set aside Billy Duffy
That damn dance he does is fuckin awesome!
I like his dance too, it should be called "the junk flopper" lol you cant miss it...
It is, even trained dancers would have problems keeping up with that!
Classic Jagger but much improved. Tap dancing but using heels instead. Class act....
It's tap dancing influenced by XVII Century European (French, to be more specific) sort of attitude and choreography (usage of heels). Watch "Le Roi Danse" (2000), it's excellent and features the incredible music of Jean-Baptiste Lully.

John Depp stole his character for Jack Sparrow. I swear.
Wouldn't be surprised. Good analogy!
I think Ian stole Steven Tyler's character. Or at least a lot of his style.
Good point! Someone should get all three of them on a stage. LOL
Ian was more Mick Jagger, Tyler copied Jaggers shamelessly. Depp used Keith Richards as his inspiration for Sparrow.
And Axl Rose.
What a brilliant piece of historic musical television. Thanks for posting. Love it!
I LOVE this mans voice!!! One of THE BEST!!!
The Cult album "Love" has many great songs other than Santuary, from Hollow Man to Brother Wolf Sister Moon. Just great vocals and guitar riffs, still my favorite Cult album.
Hollow man is one if my favorites
Love,Electric and Sonic Temple were all solid. But yeah Love is a bit special.
The LOVE album is a masterpiece! No contest ❤❤🤍🤍

Genuinely made a big difference to alternative music being in the charts and being heard by more people. Just a great band with a star frontman.
the cult are a great band they rocked the scene back then and it stands the test of time ROCK ON CULT ROCK ON
Big Country's Mark Brzezicki on drums too. Awesome!
Mark absolutely killed it on the Love album, totally raised the game of the whole band having him on drums. Bands only as good as the drummer!
The Cult is and always will be Rock Royalty. It would be awesome to see more people open their eyes and ears to the genius of THE CULT.

Ian Astbury- the Stompin Tom of rock. 37 years later still a fantastic song and cool video.
Open the sky and let her come down...such a great lyric
I agree , but that’s from Rain

One of the greatest bands ever.
Anyone who listened immediately appreciated them. 🤘
I was gonna say, they are so young, but actually We were so young; so blessed to have this music for our culture. People are so ripped off now
I actually got to see him perform a couple of summers ago. It was a privilege. One of the greatest voices ever.
I saw him a few years ago and he looked more like a homeless guy than a rockstar
I wish I could have gone to one of his earlier shows for sure. He had a hard time getting through most of their songs.
f'ing masterpiece
Never seen Ian with such big smiles. Nice!
Total class act! brought credibility to an otherwise drab musical decade
I'm not being funny, mate, but a lot of stuff happened that decade in music alone.
