love that early 80s aesthetic of glaring incandescent lights and mirrors / reflective surfaces. It's so awesomely retro-futuristic. Or just futuristic.
me listening bauhaus before i was born, my mum first row (in front of david,), she is 4 months pregnant here, blonde chubby girl... omg :D love you mum! love bauhaus! going to see them next week 19 Aug 2022, Brixton! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
There were only a handful of the DarkWave genre bands that had such esoteric talent; Killing Joke, Bauhaus, Japan, The Chameleons and Siouxsie & The Banshees
well Japan had nothing to do with that scene at all ever neither did the chameleons really, but there was some Amazing bands such as UK Decay(who along with Bauhaus started it all) / Southern Death Cult / Sex Gang Children + loads more
@Gary Numans Silly Wig think you need to find out your facts before you comment on anything as for Siouxsie She was an original Pistols fan / original Punk when there was only about 10 existed they travelled to Paris for Pistols gig in 1976 & were good friends when they formed the Banshees for a one off gig with Sid Vicious =drums / Marco(Ants) = guitar etc when they formed properly 1977 they were an amazing band first I saw them was 1978 age 13(my 1st ever gig) & as for Killing Joke they have always been dark since 1979 they were formed by Jaz & Paul from a Ritual they did together I first saw them live Febuary 1980 in London supporting Joy Division & have seen them over 300 times since my fave band from that gig but your right about Japan they were lumped in with the new romantic scene & they just turned a pop band
well reading your reply you seem more confused about Everything than Scooby doo you obviously don't understand a thing about what Killing Joke are about & you also say they are not musically competent you couldn't be more wrong if you tried ffs Geordie is one of the best guitar players in the world your be hard pressed to find some one that can play like him he's a amazing & Jaz is a classically trained violinist & pianist has conducted every major orchestra in the world composes classical music Youth is one of the biggest record producers in the world has done every one inc bands like Pink Floyd / Paul McCartney as well as dance etc & as for Joy Division they did not sell a lot they got bigger after they split up & vw beetles are great cars & as for punk you don't even understand anything about that ffs your comments are pathetic about everything & 100% wrong etc can I ask what music / bands you are into now this should be funny to see your reply
I saw Bauhaus perform at Larry's Hideaway around 1982. It was the best live show I had ever seen...I have seen a lot of bands. My boyfriend and I had a glass of wine with Peter after the show. He was very nice and quiet the gentleman. He was very theatrical and a little violent on stage...very opposite. The guitar player wasn't very friendly. My hair at the time was very similar to his. I had a feeling he thought I was copying him. Lol...I worked at a hair salon. I had zero idea what he looked like before going to the show. I just ignored him
what a cool band loved this music since i first heard it all those years ago on top of the pops of all places!!! woww Radical for them more for mr Peels Show but What a cool chap !!
Me gustan Bauhaus ( porque esta P.Murphy), sus mayores exitos son versiones ajenas....!! La version d Ziggy Stardust, me gusta mucho mas que cualquier version, la original, etc, del propio Bowie....Me gustan mas los discos d Peter Murphy, que Bauhaus...
En Ziggy Stardust es probable que tocaran en vivo, en Lagartija Nick y Shes in parties sólo doblan, pero toda la puesta en escena es anfetamínica jaja.

All great stuff takes me back saw them few times in London / Aylesbury / Hemel Hempstead early 80's..Shame about the sound on this did you record it on your phone from the tv or something?
I saw these guys live twice between 1982 & 1984 and they were pretty cool both times - on the first time I think they were supported by Southern Death Cult (later known as the Cult)!

(Not being sarcastic) I love how the announcers don't start introducing them like : and coming up a "gothic" band from,... ugh! So many call them "goth" these days, they don't even call themselves goth. To me They're a rock band with many minor keyed styles with an occasional major chord here and there damn it.
I don't think "goth" was in popular use at the time, I remember them getting described as punk at the time. They didn't call themselves goth , but neither did Sisters Of Mercy, Banshees, Fields Of The Nephilim, etc, etc. It was a label that got applied to bands whether they liked it or not!
They were never Goth Rock and they hated that term/label...it's ART rock if anything....ex art student's and their name SAYS it ALL.🧐🎶 post punk rock is also a better term...but they were never part of the Goth movement thank f**k !👍🎵
@@zackspaulding hmmm i think goth defines the music audience more than the bands but you is funny that all those bands labelled post-punk or goth fed off the same fan base

I don’t suppose you have a time-machine to take me back there 🥺🥺
Saw a video tape gig and it was Something out of this World they were AMAZING,feel sorry not have seen them earlyer
Wow. Amazing. Much love from Los Angeles CA 2020 ❤️
thanks Vincent! just shared on my page
I LOVE THE MANN I'VE GOT A.TOM OF SHIRTS THAT READ BAUHAUS IS DEAD...LONG LIVE BAUHAUS
Maravilhoso! Perfeito!
Darkabillly! The second song
Tones on tail and Love & Rockets were much better.
Tones were excellent, I wouldn't say Rockets were better though....sorry.
These guys always did the best cover of Ziggy Stardust IMO. Brilliant.
Was just thinking the same.
Abso-f-king-lutely.
I think it's much better than the original. Just my opinion.
DaggylMc Gra when Bowie heard their cover of ziggy you can bet he loved it
@@Bass-ne6dl ; Do you know if anyone ever asked him about it, what his answer was?
I agree 1,000,000,000%

Copied from Bowies' Thin White Duke tour.
God I love Bauhaus
I love how Peter gives up on the lip-synching during "Lagartija Nick"! He's like "Screw it! I'm gonna dance instead!"
Peter was twenty four making such beautiful and complex music. Bauhaus was amazing.
Accidentally saw Bauhaus many years ago... they were supporting Magazine. Needless to say, it was a fabulous experience.
THAT BOLERO JACKET PETER IS WEARING ON THE SECOND PERFORMANCE, MY WORRRRD. IT'S STUNNING AND HE LOOKS SO IMMACULATE IN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes. It is awesome. It is a Spanish bullfighter jacket actuallly . “Un torero” . I am Spanish. All bullfighters dress those jackets.
He was staying with a mutual friend he hired it from a small fancy dress hire shop in Wimbledon...now long gone..

The early bau haus rocked.still regularly listen to them along with dalis car , siouxsie, sisters.love all that era
Ok, am officially old. I remember these appearances.
yeah was thinking the exact same thing... then I walked to look in the mirror and I confirmed it... I am old.
After so many years... Peter's cheekbones still are the best!
his bald head is now globally orbital now
When lip-syncing with a mic, it's important to get the mic to your mouth _before_ the singing starts.

Peter rocking the capri pants.
The infamous goth toreador look!
I’m so lucky to have seen them 3xs
Tones on tail 2
Love and rockets 1
And peter him self 1
I'm so glad I was part of this era. The 80s for ever!
Ziggy's cover is almost better than the original.
Loved them as a teenager, when I met them and got autographs, Peter wasn’t there. Daniel signed my autographs with an X. I wasn’t happy.
Thank you for the upload, these performances look great in HD! I think my personal fav is “She’s in Parties” although all the songs are great :)
Loved this band, still do and bought the Bauhaus T-shirt.
"She's in parties" my fav
Love the old days when TOTP still had integrity and a soul!!!!
Too True

That's great about the hair 🤣🤣🤣
I hate going to a Party and seeing somebody wearing the same thing as me
@@staceyg6366 that show was broadcast on the radio 📻 and Peter copied his own hairstyle from a fan in the audience in 80.😉
What a band! I guess they were ahead of their time.
Wayyyyyyy ahead of the crowd.😉🤗
ABSOLUTELY!! 😉😎
Ahead of their time? I don't think so. I'd say they were perfect timing for "goth" to take over after punk molding into new wave. Wahi' Valleys
what a band, saw them twice live amazing
in reality they were pretty shit , nostalgia isnt a good thing.
@@patthewoodboy 😬😏
Wow! In their prime there.
shes in parties dedicated to my best friend lorna forsyth who i havent seen in 35 odd years xx

Thank you for sharing!!
those pop people at the show must have wondered if they went out and bought a bauhaus album after this gig
Daniel Ash's hair. 👌🤘
😍!
This is incredible.
What a art music band!
The BEST...a design of music.😉
Brilhante banda
Nobody was chopped in 82 .When did getting ink done become hip ?
Chopped...what you on about?🤔
@@zackspaulding I am guessing he is talking about tattoos. Refreshing to see men in their natural skin only!
EXTRAORDINARY INTERPRETATION.....
Special voice, great memories xx
I never noticed that Kevin Haskins played drums, (held the sticks) like a jazz drummer. Wahi' Valleys
Yes he was tutored as a kid by a jazz drummer in the early 70's.🧐🥁
They all look so done in the last one lmaoooo
Cant wait to see Bauhaus in May in L.A.
I'm doing Paris and London show's in April.😉
💜💜🕊🕊💫💫💜💜
This era the studios and TV shows preferred bands to do this.
Such great times
Hedonism at top
Love these! Many thanks!🖤
some fine lip-syncing. : P
Goth royalty.

All bands mimed on TOTP, the BBC gave them no choice
became the special man. Then we were Ziggy's band.
I never knew they'd been on TOTP!
Yes three time's, they were meant to do 4 in all, as Spirit was going to be their first in June 82.😉👍🧐👌
I always assumed Peter always played the mouth piano thingy all the time, the reason being the "Gotham" video of course
Wow,
Fenomenal, increiblemente bueno
Wow
Es ist so schön mystisch
S and m comprehensive never sounded so good sonnhelnstrahl und die Licht strahlen say air passes a credit card passport to see Bauhaus in germany
Quite the same than the original, so what's the good ?
... bands these days just can't mime like this anymore..
This is absolutely brilliant!
I never knew anyone from Northamptonshire had ever been on Top of the Pops!
This is a thin man's sport. Don't think you can gain 200 lbs and still do this.
David sure kept his weight down, so he could still do this into his 60's. Now these guys look like fools on stage.
Que voz peter murfhi que grande banhaus
Hi David
気持ちいいナルシズムだな(笑)
All great stuff takes me back saw them few times in London / Aylesbury / Hemel Hempstead early 80's..Shame about the sound on this did you record it on your phone from the tv or something?
Yes from my phone as i sadly can't get it off my TV hard drive.
So great to see these back to back thank you
I saw them in Hemel Hempstead as well. Amazing band.
Always loved David Bauhaus
thanks
Best cover ever
I saw these guys live twice between 1982 & 1984 and they were pretty cool both times - on the first time I think they were supported by Southern Death Cult (later known as the Cult)!

Thanks for saving this for the darklings
Damn, David J was always the epitome of cool.
Great band, but should never have done Ziggy, it's silly and pointless.
Why are they lip syncing?
Because that's the way it was done on this show, all these version's are exclusive to the show....making them quite rare.
Why Not Bitch
Lip or Galliger not...FUCK you...This is BAUHAUS
Maybe the sync was common, but can't remember Bowie ( the original) doing it as frequently. That's part of the difference.
