@@Sam-go3mb Right! I guess depression was the wrong word. More like a melancholy message. This particular song has a daydreaming component one could get lost in. Either way, you are right, songs these days kind of lack that touch. Cheers to Lush!
@@ryanporter1819 Nah I get what you meant totally. There was something really....raw about the 90's sentiment; it was as if that generation knew something important was coming to an end...I'm not even quite sure what that something is, but I feel it.
Yes. When I listen to the guitar breaks- jingly, jangly, or clangy- I immediately hear The Sisters Of Mercy on their album: "First, Last, and Always." This cut of Lush "For Love" especially has a guitar break very much in common in terms of texture, chord changes, and harmonics with the Sisters of Mercy from that period (as do many of theirs.) Like a lot of things, there had to have been cross-band influence of what each was producing and listening to. It's a beautiful and very influential sound. For those possibly unfamiliar, treat yourself to the entire S.O.M. album I'm referring to available in whole here on the tube. And I'm in no way saying one band copied another, just to say there was a "sound" going around during that period, a beautiful, irresistible style that guitarists no doubt heard and were influenced by and which made their way into their compositions.

Pretty little girl, she shines Knowing she is young, she smiles Happy just to be a prize Happy just to see his smile Silly little girl, she tries Thinking she is good, and wise Doesn't recognise the lies Pouring from her lips, she sighs: This is so real, It's what I feel, I look in your eyes and lose myself Silly little girl denies Every understanding why Her face is full of sad surprise Every time she hears him cry: What do you feel When you're with me?

jesus i was listening to those words? that is some amazing lyrics. i love lush even more now. I wish i knew what my mum did with my cassette of spooky. bloody mums all over the world have cost civilisation many millions of beautiful cassettes and cds over the years.
Drummer Chris Acland was definitely a Keith Moon Who fan. Can't believe it's been nearly 23 years since he passed, but the songs with his drumming will live forever.
@@herchelleonwood7463well this album was one of there more shoegazy ones, this was their first actual album. This song does sound more like pop then the other songs on it though.
this sounds like something you'd hear twice on a lifetime. once accidentally from a radio on your teenage years and second from your children's playlist.
These are the most heartbreaking lyrics ever. I weep every time I hear the song I remember seeing lush in lollapalooza at Saratoga, New York. I was skinny dreadlocked shaved sides bull ring 17 years old. I had such a crush onMicky Brenyai . I was the only person in front row and she was shredding her Reichenbacher what a privilege that moment was I’ll never forget that thank you Mickey.
@@Leopoldrodriguez8a yep ithe majority of it is dogshit. can blame the 00s bands who set the example of rehashing 20+ year old ideas instead of inventing new styles
Who the hell is down-voting Lush? What is wrong with you?? Just keep these video releases coming please - had no money in the early 90's but I did have Lush and lots of fun.
I love the beautiful cherry red Rickenbacker 340/12 that Miki plays in this. She didn't play it too often; usually she played a Gibson ES335-12 or Epiphone Riviera 12. I have a Rickenbacker 330/12, and it is my favorite guitar.
I have a 330/12 too. I think I read the Ric got stolen, the Gibson suffered two headstock breaks (surprise, surprise) and the Epiphone was one of a limited Gibson custom shop release in the early 90s. In Piroshka she plays a Fender Strat XII and I read she thought the neck was a bit wide, saying guitar manufacturers don't accommodate female's smaller hands enough. I thought that'd never be a criticism that could be levelled at Ric 12 strings, but ironically she said at the time she thought the Ric neck was too narrow. I tend to agree in both areas, despite the possible contradiction. I love my Mustang's narrow neck, but fitting 12 strings on virtually the same width is a bit squeezy.
I first heard this song driving my 2 seater red Geo Metro convertible from Chicago to my family cottage in Gobles Michigan. I had recently graduated from Loyola. I think it was WXRT that played it. This song will always remind me of when life wasn't as complicated.
My cousins were 15 years older and they always listened to rock bands so, it was something I learned from them. I didn't know most of the bands they loved but Lush was one as Throwing Muses and Pixies. I'm happy to remember how I used to live at 7, with this music nowadays.
I vividly recall first time seeing For Love on 120 Minutes '91/'92 and being absolutely enthralled by the voice, look, and of course hair of Miki. Bought the cassette as soon as I could!
I am the exact same age as you and discovered both in 1991 😊 yet it doesn't matter does it? The music hasn't changed - still glorious. And I envy you too, getting to hear them first time! Enjoy!
pretty much the theme song of my loneliness and depression back in the 90s. still hits me right where I didn't want it to, but sometimes you have to pick at the old wounds, I guess
The 90s were probably the best generation of people since the 40s. No fake social justice or fake environmental concerns, I just wanted to be a better person without any armtwisting
@@KratomFlavoredAdidas One thing that hasn't changed is that female musicians are still rated by their "hotness", their perceived beauty and desirability, while any musical ability and creativity rates a distant second if it rates at all. "'My number one crush"! 🤢
@@deaddoll1361 Nothong wrong with liking someone and I'm not "rating" her on her hotness... But I do think she is very pretty! But, it's not just about her because I absolutely adore Lush, have all their records, multiple autographs and much more merchandise of ALL the band members. So, yes, she was my "number one crush" but I don't rate that above her music. The two notions can sit on separate measures. I also thought all the Manic Street Preachers boys were gorgeous in their youth... And I also loved their music too!
Early 1990s. Suddenly I'm old. Shopping for CDs at HMV used to be one of the stops of going into town. The past never looked better than it does today.
Man....I had the biggest crush on Miki back then. I bought Gala the first weekend I arrived at college in 1990 as a freshman. I was and still am a huge fan.
Escuché está belleza de himno al espíritu hace 30 años y lo grabe de la radio a un casete . Perdí el casete y perdí el nombre del grupo y la canción, lo busque millones de veces y no encontré, nunca más volví a escuchar esta canción hasta que de casualidad un amigo lo puso hoy y lloré de la emoción. Cómo amo está canción , es nostalgia pura , es magia pura está canción himno de toda la vida . Sin miedo a equivocarme diría que es la canción más linda de todas ❤️! Gracias Lush de todo corazón , desde Perú .
Ohh a mí me sucedió los mismo hoy. La tararie en Google y apareció .la escuché en un casette pirata que están este tema al inicio y luego venían los temas de siouxie and the banches . Por fin la encontré saludos desde Chile
the video uses the single/ep BAD2001 release of the song; remixed by Mark Freegard and Lush - the drums on this version were re-recorded from the version on "Spooky" - the bass appears to have less flange on it also .
It doesn't matter whether it was here stateside 1992 on Dennis Miller's show or on global watch 2021 broadcasting on a 24/7 basis, the fact remains that For Love is in my Top 5 of all time. It is one of the best of all time. One of the most hauntingly beautiful and exquisitely mesmerizing videos in the history of recorded music.
This song was my very first introduction to Indie Rock/Alternative Rock from waaaay back in the day, back in the early 90s. I got addicted to this particular song first time I heard it.

Woow, this gurl is a seducer who’s just playing with their feelings and covering her reality with naivety, regrettably she’s making herself think that she’s dumb and innocent... and that’s what she’s calling “LOVE”, narcissistic love I would say...till youth is over
Love the bass guitar, and the depressed jingly, jangly guitar sound that is similar in the Pixies, The Cure and Bauhaus. Such a distinct hallmark of the late 80's early 90's.
Weird how 2010's indie brought back the jangle but dropped the depression. (generally speaking)

Lush were one of the really great early 90's bands. Shoegazers !
Very true david ellis.
@Rolman80 80 So, because there were a lot of good bands Lush can't one of the greats? Logic fail!
Lush were just a bang average indie pop band. One of worst bands on 4AD.

@@mattmyers2863 yes!
Some classic, sweet melodic pop. Lush were really underrated
not really
Not by me!
They were always rated quite highly I believe but maybe a bit popularly under appreciated. Shoegaze and dream pop had effectively been subsumed by grunge, britpop, and the more punk-y sounding alt rock of the mid 90’s. Definitely a better sound than most of the rest of the 90’s.

Lush is the true OG shoegaze. Perfection in every way.
The harmonies are so soothing and sound like angels
Yes, perfectly angelic
Sirens
I think Lush had the best harmonies of the 90s together with Teenage Fanclub and well...Alice In Chains
4AD is the best record label to exist. having introduced to us bands such as lush, cocteau twins, this mortal coil, bauhaus, ariel pink and many more. amazing
Don't forget Dead Can Dance!
I never understood how Slowdive never fitted there. Slowdive was made for 4AD not for the chaotic Creation.
Belly
And Pale Saints
I first heard this song yesterday and ive played it about 60 times.
Sweet!
Me too
Same here
I remember seeing Lush live at Lollapalooza in '92!
I've played it 65 times. Ha, I win!
Pretty little girl, she shines
Knowing she is young, she smiles
Happy just to be a prize
Happy just to see his smile
Silly little girl, she tries
Thinking she is good, and wise
Doesn't recognise the lies
Pouring from her lips, she sighs:
This is so real,
It's what I feel,
I look in your eyes and lose myself
Silly little girl denies
Every understanding why
Her face is full of sad surprise
Every time she hears him cry:
What do you feel
When you're with me?
I look in your eyes and see myself
But there's no connection,
Just his own reflection
Isn't this the way you wanted me?
(What do you mean?)
In love with you
(What do I feel?)
Do anything
(What do you mean?)
For you
She looked in his eyes to lose herself
And when it falls apart, she cries
Doesn't think to look inside
She just covers up her eyes
Doesn't see her own disguise
And though she feels this sorrow,
It will fade tomorrow
She'll pretend that this was really love
(What do you mean?)
She'll make their fall
(What did I feel?)
Seem beautiful
(What do you mean?)
She won't remember this at all
(What do you mean?)
She won't recall
(What did I feel?)
The truth at all
(What do you mean?)
She wants to fall
(What did I feel?)
Again
(What do you mean?)
holy shit
Amazing lyrics even today
Amazing and prophetic, sounds like women today

This hits hard
I know the MIki usually gets all the buzz, but let's not forget Emma!
That guitar and that harmony is literally how nostalgic sounds like
Drummer Chris Acland was definitely a Keith Moon Who fan. Can't believe it's been nearly 23 years since he passed, but the songs with his drumming will live forever.
He was only 30 when he passed. I wish he was still around making music.
he's one of the best
He is so fuckin hot 😍
Miki and Emma were total babes!
Such an underrated piece of media
TAKE ME BACK TO THE 90s!!!!
I want to go back to the late 70s / early 80s, but I'll happily stop here along the way.
The 90s were a magical time! So many great memories!! Lush, Stone Roses, Catherine Wheel, Blur, Verve & The Smiths always bring me back...
TAKE ME AS WELL!!
Beauty in sadness. She’s got such a heavenly voice
This whole album is a tear joking emotional roller coaster. Still hits my heart and waters my eyes after 30 years. It was so great to be 21 in 1991.
Walking around the cold, snowy streets in upstate NY after dark, winter of '92-'93, listening to "Spooky" on my Walkman. Heavenly.
You really cant say youre a shoegaze fan without have a good bit of lush in your playlists 🤟

thats really cool. wish ive had the same experience
I heard it from a torrent I downloaded 15 years ago, and again now when Pitchfork linked to this video in a review
Got this on the EP release when I was 17. All four songs are beautiful. Will play it to the young one see what she thinks.
Such a lovely video for a lovely criminally underrated band. How can you not love them?
I had a deep crush on Emma back in the early 90s. To me Emma was the cutest alt pin up girl.
If there was ever a song and a video worthy of remastering, this is it. Thank you infinitely, 4AD.
This whole album should be re-mastered. It meant so much to so many of us 90’s kids.

LYRICS: 😃👍✨
Pretty little girl, she shines
Knowing she is young, she smiles
Happy just to be a prize
Happy just to see his smile
Silly little girl, she tries
Thinking she is good, and wise
Doesn't recognise the lies
Pouring from her lips, she sighs:
This is so real,
It's what I feel,
I look in your eyes and lose myself
Silly little girl denies
Every understanding why
Her face is full of sad surprise
Every time she hears him cry:
What do you feel
When you're with me?
I look in your eyes and see myself
But there's no connection,
Just his own reflection
Isn't this the way you wanted me?
(what do you mean?)
In love with you
(what do I feel?)
Do anything
(what do you mean?)
For you
She looked in his eyes to lose herself
And when it falls apart, she cries
Doesn't think to look inside
She just covers up her eyes
Doesn't see her own disguise
And though she feels this sorrow,
It will fade tomorrow
She'll pretend that this was really love
(what do you mean?)
She'll make their fall
(what did I feel?)
Seem beautiful
(what do you mean?)
She won't remember this at all
(what do you mean?)
She won't recall
(what did I feel?)
The truth at all
(what do you mean?)
She wants to fall
(what did I feel?)
Again
(what do you mean?)
Woow, this gurl is a seducer who’s just playing with their feelings and covering her reality with naivety, regrettably she’s making herself think that she’s dumb and innocent... and that’s what she’s calling “LOVE”, narcissistic love I would say...till youth is over
Adam ya
Heard it last year, forgot the name, found it this year ❤
Miki’s voice is heavenly
The aesthetic of the song and the video is so intoxicating. I wanna go there on a vacation
Oh, my! Oh, Miki!
