I lived on communist Eastern Europe at this time. This kind of music was evocative of the times. I would lie in bed early in the AM and listen to cassette tapes of the Psychedelic Furs explaining the world to me.
The beautiful melancholy scene you describe, paired with Sister Europe, should find their way into a movie someday soon. Very moving moment. Thank you.
I had the hots for him for years...my late partner was his double it's really weird watching this, we saw them in Scotland on this tour. I have photos of Mike (my partner) and you'd think it was RB miss him so much♡
I don't have any attraction for men, but... he's really very handsome, and he has a lot of class and distinction. And that voice! And that gift for melody... A great guy.
Just a little... ah ah! Ho appena visto un documentario sulla discoteca rock-new wave in cui andavo a vent'anni, il Suburbia di Perugia. Emozioni cavalcanti in me.
Funny you should say that. Bowie was a big fan of Richard and there are a few pics of them together at gigs over the years. As for him sounding like Bowie, I’d have to strongly disagree. Lots of singers have been compared to Bowie, whether fairly or not but Butler Rep has such an original and distinctive voice that he shouldn’t be compared to anyone.
It is not a crazy thing. On one occasion Bowie praised the voice of Richard Butler and said: I wish I had his voice. I suppose it would be a form of compliment, because D. Bowie has a unique voice and he knew it perfectly.
I haven't seen them since about 83 but I've seen the odd clip of recent gigs. It wasn't just the music was it, it was the energy or the zeitgeist of the era. It's gone now, there's a new spirit of a new age and its not one I want any part of. Richard Butler was singing about now however now he's singing about then.
These guys look so high! Great band!

@@davidmurray2539bro its not that deep lol
@@shadowHeartless999 Maybe you aren't.
Heavenly horns made this band iconic. Truly beautiful . One of my all-time favorite 80's bands .
Bowie should’ve covered this one brilliant piece.
The band is so good here and Richard Butler simply mesmerizing.
Richard Butler,.. such loveliness.....
I freaking love that guitar in Sleep Comes Down
so long Mars...you were spectacular xxxxx
Those eyes , that voice, they just melt my soul.
Oh Jesus kill me now, this man, so beautiful, so talented, and that hair! The best Richard Butler hair ever ♥

figo e affascinante............ mio marito un po' gli assomiglia...
ma è + bello!!!
Bruna Cavallo Oh sorry, no parla Espanol!
YEAH, we all know how the hairdi is sooo important, as far as music is concerned lol ...
🤘🐸🚬...the narcotic properties of this PF tune is potent af
Dear Mr. Butler, you are not from this world, like a ghost, so haunting...
Doesn’t age…
@@r0tt3dfl3shh agreed
I forgot how good Sleep comes down is.
It really is wonderful.
*lights up cigarette before singing*
Helps his voice....!
I hope cigarettes didn't cause lung problems for him.
... Genial ...
Das ist Kunst.
The beautiful talented Butler!

I Love their first LP. The Sax really made things shift a Bit as well.
my God, how cool is that
soy ENRIQUE, los psychedelic son una de mis mas grandes FAVORITAS BANDAS DE CULTO, gracias por subir cosas y sigan haciendolo jajaja
I love you Richard Butler !
Quiero el sentir y la concentración del batero cuando arranca el tema
Superb
His voice like david bowie...Super band this
hai ragione, anche secondo me ricorda David Bowie
Just a little... ah ah! Ho appena visto un documentario sulla discoteca rock-new wave in cui andavo a vent'anni, il Suburbia di Perugia. Emozioni cavalcanti in me.

That cigarette last 5 minutes without smoking 🚬 it
You're right!!! 😂
Brilliant!
My God 1983-2022
Absolut fantastic! Thank You so much for posting this. Do You remember where this gig was? Saw the Furs 1987 in Munich and 1990 in Düsseldorf
loving this song and Richard's beautiful voice 💝
una de las mejores bandas de "culto", gracias x subir..soy enrique
Nice punk and pop wave
Me Likey👍👍
PFurs has cool sax playing,and the ultra cool singer Richard Butler who could emote better than Bryan Ferry...imo
Ahhh....sssssss!
Paul Garisto on drums
Love love love always always ❤️
Reminds me of the cars alittle
As a historical treasure this is noteworthy but in recent years the current Furs line-up play Sister Europe so much better.
I haven't seen them since about 83 but I've seen the odd clip of recent gigs. It wasn't just the music was it, it was the energy or the zeitgeist of the era.

Beautiful chaos
Proper Furs? Is it?
Don't know why, this song (Sister Europe) remembers me the Velvet Underground...
The lads are stoned!
After he sings "Home again", he kind of yells and hisses....anybody know what he's saying here?
I believe it’s just a wordless moan before the hiss …something like “awwww, hssssssss”
Cobain would have loved this
Drummer looks like he's seriously tired of played "Sleep Comes Down."
LOL!
vocals too low in the mix!
if he vaped in this video it would not be as cool
Sexy man he is even still today at 64 he is.
Pretty amusing thought. Nope... you are right. He'd just look like another vaping dip-shit.
What? That makes no sense.
The tempo is so slow.. It seems that the dealer of cocaïne and amphetamines could not deliver them before the concert!!! 😉😁
I think that the tempo is just fine, just like the original.
David Bowie clone
Lol Both Boomers and from London
They are the same Culture you twat
Oui je trouve aussi une ressemblance avec la voix de Bowie.
Robert is from the U.K., like Bowie, and is a slim, sort of androgynous man, like Bowie. But he seems very different, and his own personal.
