Super time to be around in crazy 20s for AMAZING talented musicians at the time. US "late Boomers/Gen Xers" have AMAZINFG talent and creativity! All orginal. AND radio never played all undergound or pirate radio later nite.
Being able to listen to the Mission UK was the only thing that got me through my 6 month naval deployments at sea! I cant even describe how lonely those were. I would find a place on the bow to listen to this song and stare into the sea.
English landscapes, summer woodlands, old churches, stone circles, cider, youth, love, childhood, the year 1987........these are just a few of the beautiful things I think of when I listen to the Mission. The spirit will live forever
It was far more limited as far as gear goes, and in a way I think that forced people to be creative as far as filling up the "space". Totally love that stuff too.
Fun Fact: This was used as soundtrack for "Miami Vice" , the episode's title was "Theresa". It aired first in the US in February 1987. You're welcome...😎👌
This song is wisdom and a warning. I faked my age at a goth club in L.A. back in the early 90's. I danced to this....This song was still playing strong back then and I feel it will go ' Main Stream ' sooner than later. Some heavy days are on us and I feel like the 80's underground music warned us it would be this way.
It was the Mission's first major crossover hit,blasting into the Top 40 of the UK charts at number 24 and peaking at number 11 the following week,in late January 1987. I'm sure it was probably referring to something else but I equated it with the post-industrial wasteland up and down the land left by the economic scarring and Thatcher government policies of the years leading up to that time.
Damn, I wish I had a time machine!!! Dancing till the sun came up listening to genius music like this!!! The 80s was a fantastic time to be alive and young!!!! Thanks for sharing this amazing song and transporting back to a time when life made sense and there was a sense of wonder and the idea you could do anything you set your mind to!!! Cheers
This song reminds me so much of one of my other favorite bands of the time...Echo and the Bunnymen. Oh, how I wish people were making wonderful music like this nowadays. My only hope is that I have introduced my children to my old alternative music so they can keep the fan base going.
I listened to The Mission while I was at university, especially while doing a module on gothic literature. The lyrics are truly gothic in the literary sense. I love the insistent pounding of the rhythm section and how the guitar adds subtle soaring highlights... and Wayne Hussey's voice, obviously. Great stuff!

Timeless... LYRICS : I still believe in God But God no longer believes in me There's a crystal view from my window And I can see years to come I live for the burn and the sting of pleasure I live for the sword, the steel, and the gun I can tear down the walls, storm the barricades Run to the place where the frightened crawl Desire lurks beyond good and evil So I dance on the graves where the hallowed fall Over this land All over this wasteland Over this land All over this wasteland You can touch, but please keep your distance You're innocent and pure and with no shame The spirit is willing, and the flesh is craved You tease and you taunt with the pleasure of pain Over this land All over this wasteland Over this land All over this wasteland Heaven and Hell, I know them well But I haven't yet made my choice I'm feeling scared 'cause I'm shouting loud And no one can hear my voice I'm walking the tightwire, can't look down Strung out high, above you all Fateful wind blows through this land Howls my name, heralds my fall Over this land All over this wasteland Over this land All over this wasteland (x2)

took my wife to see them at the Astoria Theatre in 1988 when she was pregnant with our first child, it was so loud that I thought that she was going to deliver on the spot a great gig
GREAT band. I miss the purity and beauty of 80's music. And the deep lyrics inside the tapestry of Mission's music makes me wonder why they arent' as big as the biggest bands today.
Most gothic rock is simply too intelligent and deep for the masses to be able to comprehend, let alone accept. Don't wonder, this is seriously the answer.
Essa banda Gótica é uma das melhores que existe neste mundo, a sonoridade é espetacular te transporta para os anos 80 em fração de segundos viva The Mission, Brazil

My first serious boyfriend made me a mixtape with this song on it. I still have it. Nearly wore it out. Saw them back in ‘87 with the Psychedelic Furs. I don’t think I’ve ever seen this extended version of the video before. Thx.

Seen The Mission at Wave Gothic Treffen two years ago, first Goth Festival. First overseas Festival, First time seeing The Mission, bloody brilliant, had to wait till I was 45 to experience all three, but well worth it.
la voz de Wayne Hussey era el sonido mágico de esta emblemática banda británica de los 80s. Crecí escuchando sus canciones, siempre las llevaré en mi sangre. Saludos desde Perú 🇵🇪
Sin lugar a dudas los que planteas amigo, una voz mágica y superlativa. La banda posee una trilogía mágica con sus primeros 3 albumes, pero sin dudas "Wasteland" es una canción que más que canción es una experiencia vital (me puse hiperbólico, pero eso me pasa a mí). Por cierto Peter Murphy, también vocalista del mismo género y amigo de Wayne Hussey, posee un timbre similar...ambos unos tremendos artistas con mayúsculas.
En los ochentas, yo estaba en Buenos Aires, me gustaban mas que U2. Los 80s en Buenos Aires fue una epoca increible para la juventud. Tiempos irreproducibles.
Thanks for posting this, I have seen them live about five or six times in Germany, starting in 1988 in Frankfurt I think. Great band, great songs, great sound, nice guys, especially Craig Adams always friendly and helpful with the fans. The Final Chapter, God's Own Medicine, Children, Carved in Sand, Grains of Sand, Aura, great albums. No grave concern for repercussions... Oh the 80ties...

Remember when ur favorite band could produce an album and every song was blatantly memorable. Flipping the cassette over and over every 45 minutes. Burning into our souls... Then the CD became popular and we would lay around in our Dr Martins and shredded cloths playing the devils misery on repeat...
Was well into these in the 80’s saw them in 86/87 on the gods own medicine tour amazing live band wish i got to see them again sadly i didn’t. Still a fan now still listen every now and then.

Hey, I had a great band I was managing perform it live at my wedding for my wedding march song, Mission wasn't available, ha ha. They did a great job. Marriage lasted 6 I months but , Tower of Strength ...FOREVER
OMG this is so beautiful. Why haven't i heard them before? I am so glad i found them on a Top Of The Pops video of bands from the 1980. I grew up in that decade and it had the best music! Thanks so much for adding this on here for us fans!

I followed the MISSION all over the UK In the late 80s ..
We where known to Wayne and the Band as the ESKIMOS.
FANTASTIC TIMES
FANTASTIC CONCERTS
👍
I followed them in Germany, one of the best live bands I've seen ❤
so cool. Lucky times
The mission lo escuché cuando un amigo le mandaron de Canadá una cintas,genial
You may have slept on my floor
The 70's and 80's probably the most creative period in UK music history
Absolutely. So many waves of diverse & original sounding music. Goth, Rock, Indie, New Romantics, Punk, Heavy Metal (& the New Wave Heavy Metal), Dance, Electronica, Northern Soul..... Endless. So much positive energy despite some pretty bleak periods.

I can just imagine doing that with Sail On Sailor by the Beach Boys playing. Especially if that sea was a bit stormy and turbulent.

They really do embody gothic literature in their lyrics. Deliverance is one of my favs, all about the legends of Avalon, etc.
Couldn’t have put thar better myself ✊

LYRICS :
I still believe in God
But God no longer believes in me
There's a crystal view from my window
And I can see years to come
I live for the burn and the sting of pleasure
I live for the sword, the steel, and the gun
I can tear down the walls, storm the barricades
Run to the place where the frightened crawl
Desire lurks beyond good and evil
So I dance on the graves where the hallowed fall
Over this land
All over this wasteland
Over this land
All over this wasteland
You can touch, but please keep your distance
You're innocent and pure and with no shame
The spirit is willing, and the flesh is craved
You tease and you taunt with the pleasure of pain
Over this land
All over this wasteland
Over this land
All over this wasteland
Heaven and Hell, I know them well
But I haven't yet made my choice
I'm feeling scared 'cause I'm shouting loud
And no one can hear my voice
I'm walking the tightwire, can't look down
Strung out high, above you all
Fateful wind blows through this land
Howls my name, heralds my fall
Over this land
All over this wasteland
Over this land
All over this wasteland (x2)
Wonder what a "crystal view" is ;)
They are great guys of gothic good rock. More like this yeah^^

" Tower of strength" is one of the greatest songs I've ever heard and in my all time top 10 ,this track was in preparation for it.
Hey, I had a great band I was managing perform it live at my wedding for my wedding march song, Mission wasn't available, ha ha. They did a great job. Marriage lasted 6 I months but , Tower of Strength ...FOREVER
@@levanamedina7097 fair play to you.
OMG this is so beautiful. Why haven't i heard them before? I am so glad i found them on a Top Of The Pops video of bands from the 1980. I grew up in that decade and it had the best music! Thanks so much for adding this on here for us fans!
Seen several versions of this song....by far, my favorite. ..well done

Me tonight alone with memories of Sisters, Fields and Missions
@@markol6327 just watch out for the new Gary Numan Stuff. Stay healthy
Me the same, but stuck in semi-quarantine, with a good corn beer and some top-quality weed!
The best 3 bands ever. Totally agree. Still searching the music landscape to find anything with the same impact.
Saw them live in the eighties at The Astoria …. NEC too in Birmingham … brilliant
Mansoooooo temaaaaaa!!!!! Radio tiempo años 80!!!!! Era todo con otro aroma otro sabor!!!! Quiero ir alls
Junto con la antigua concierto las únicas que tocaban the mission
Yeaaaaahhhh
Oi André tudo bem estou passando aqui para te convidar para conhecer o meu canal de rock no TH-cam que falo sobre discos de vinil cds e dvds de rock e filmes também passa lá
The Mission intrigue me. I never felt the need to own any of their music nor listen to them. Then I went to see them one night at the Astoria in London. One absolutely *storming gig* . Just *EXCELLENT!!!*
Wayne Hussey is a godamn genius. One of Gothic Rock’s best guitarist and songwriters.
I was 20 and loved this song
Excellent version for a great song, it's a great band of dark wave, congratulations
Quem ouvindo essa grande banda em 12/2023?
Saudades de um tempo que chega a doer.
O tempo é assustador
It's one of tracks you never get fed up with listening to.
Truly an era of just being genuinely expressive, persona non grata attitude that has become quite monumentally prophetic, given 2020!
The best music..for ever...
Listening to this song on SiriusXM right now and immediately had to find this. Amazing. The beat just gets to me.
O que é bom nunca morre!!!! Gothic ontem em 80 pra mi ficou 90, 00, até hoje, sensacional!
Wonderful song
Such classics, love it
Wonderful music. I found out here by accident. Thank you.
HIPNÓTICO , ÉPICO Y MAJESTUOSO¡¡
