Dave Greenfield died on 3 May 2020, aged 71. He had been diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection on 26 April 2020, a week before his death, during an extended hospital stay for heart-related problems. He is survived by his wife, Pam. Upon news of his death, several current and former members of the Stranglers eulogized him on social media. These included Hugh Cornwell, lead vocalist on their biggest hit, "Golden Brown", who tweeted, "He was the difference between the Stranglers and every other punk band. His musical skill and gentle nature gave an interesting twist to the band. He should be remembered as the man who gave the world the music of 'Golden Brown.'"
@@UnremarkableMarx I think it's clear by the use of the word "nailed" that Corby was aware that this was a cover version. The original version was a well known hit.

They all look so young ...even Hugh !! Lots of tears for Jet and Dave . Saw these guys many times in Sydney Australia...met 'em a couple of times....smoked a joint with JJB --he was on stage playing at the time and never missed a beat ! What an honour to have had these guys in my world since the late 70's. I've had the hugest long distance crush on JJB for many decades....but really love ALL of them.
Had to travel to scotland with my my dad to identify my little brother after a car accident in scotland... the most painful time of my life... in the car on the way home ... 96 Tears! ... thanks for the journey stranglers
I'm so sorry you had to go through this... I hope you're doing better these days... I send you a big hug and much love ❤ and R.I.P. to your little brother, you'll see him again one day ❤
Saw Dave once in the Red Lion pub in Barnet, North London, he was my idol, his magical hands played out some stunning chunes. The band are a shadow of what they were without him and Hugh too. Virtually as good as the original by Question Mark and the Mysterians. Crying 96 thousand tears for Mr Greenfield, what a musician and a gent.
Stranglers Stranglers Stranglers In 1978 my mate went punk and put a safety pun in his ear 👂 to the Stranglers music 🎶. He was in hospital for a month with sepsis. Ah, the Good Old Days ! Something Better Change !
The stranglers, one of my biggest inspirations as a musician. They were so varied and versatile in their music so many different titles, I actually never liked punkrock until I heard no more heroes and its genius orchestration! always the sun is my personal favorite, golden brown, such a great classic and great song with the genius harpsichord (into pop music. hell yeah) and now this, love this over the 60s original..... other songs by the stranglers I like very much: nice in niece, all day and all of the night which did GREAT to the kinks, etc.
Yes , but Dave did have a underlying heart condition that's why he was in hospital ,hence why he probably caught the virus, hence why anyone of his age could die of flu ... R .I.P Dave Greenfield keyboardist extrordanaire alongside JJ burnel the sound of The Stranglers 👍
@@DannyBoy-vs3gd They were saying that about everyone at the time my mrs mum was in hospital around then and all of a sudden she had it as well?...........bollocks.....they had to keep people isolated and they are government funded so to keep the funds coming in they had to name anyone that died or was sick as having covid to get funding....I don't blame them at all hospitals need to make $ and most patients wern't allowed in at the time........
I heard the original for the first time in years on Crime Story and looked it up. Never knew the stranglers did a version. Reminds me a bit of Inspiral carpets Saturn 5.
I am a 57yr old rock n roll bass player. Never wanted to play keyboards. Always known they were necessary. Dave Greenfield and Richard Wright were always necessary.
By the way, what the fukc is the difference between this "Adult Version" vidéo and the "Other" one, if another one even exists ??! What exactly IS there that should only bé viewed by "adults" in THIS video ??? Eh? I bet there ISN'T even another video for it. Oh , is it the fantastique,gratituous "Split Beaver" shot at the end ?! Oh ok, I understand now, thank fukc I wasn't watching it with my eleven year old next to me ! Oh my Lord, it's quite shocking ! 😮🖤
I only took until 2020 to get into 'The Stranglers'..... of course.after reading about the punch on between them vs The Clash and The Sex Pistols.... instant respect! 😎😎
This is great and I love the stranglers but man the ?? original just has this crazy amazing energy that I can’t even explain and it can’t be topped nevertheless I do love a good cover and this is great fun especially the horns that add a little something extra that I really dig
? and the Mysterians has to be one of the best band names ever.It's strangely sort of modern,like a weird password.And he's very precise.He's crying exactly 96 tears,no more,no less.
I was gutted when Hugh left the stranglers, He had a natural Joe Strummer look about him or vice versa! Now even sadder after Jet and Dave have left this earth, It just leaves JJ who in my book is one of the most talented bass players, He's up there with the likes of Richard Searle etc 👌
4 de junio del 2023 - mediados de diciembre (19) del 2021 era un día nublado estaba junto a mi papá escuchando música despues de terminar de comer algo de pescado cuando mi papá puso esta canción que no recordaba y fue un gran momento de nostalgia hacia mi niñez ya que esta canción solía reproducirse continuamente en el CD De música de los 80s de mi papá cuando era bastante niño, hasta mi papá se sorprendio al escuchar esta canción en ese momento ya que habíamos olvidado por completo esta canción. Este tema es una de muchas más que me trae recuerdos cálidos y muy felices de cuando era pequeño;)
Great comment Carlo. I have many songs like you've mentioned, that reminds me of my Mother and Father. Simple memories are sometimes the best. Best wishes to you, your Dad and family. Greetings from SUNNY ENGLAND
@@darrenrobertw Hello Darrent, thanks for the comment and I totally agree with you. The best memories are sometimes the simplest and I really like to remember them with the songs that my father and mother used to listen to. And I always say, we are not looking for old songs, we are looking for golden memories. Greetings from Mexico brother;)
Such a sad day. RIP Dave Greenfield. Long live The Stranglers!!
RIP. XX🙏🙏🙏😢

RIP Jet Black. Just a hi-hat and a snare drum; true talent.

And you'll start crying 96 tears
Cry, you're gonna cry
And when the sun comes up I'll be on top
You'll be right down there looking up
I'm gonna get to you but I know now

Top class. I love the Stranglers. Born in 1963, spent much of my young adult life as a bass player in a rock n roll band,
Saw Hugh recently. Still smashing it. Take note, youngsters and take it forwards.
Had to travel to scotland with my my dad to identify my little brother after a car accident in scotland... the most painful time of my life... in the car on the way home ... 96 Tears! ... thanks for the journey stranglers
It's a good tune even when you are in Scotland the other best band in the world
What a terrible thing to have to endure. Live the rest of you life lucky 🤞🤞🤞
I'm so sorry you had to go through this... I hope you're doing better these days... I send you a big hug and much love ❤ and R.I.P. to your little brother, you'll see him again one day ❤

One of the great covers.
The first CD I ever bought was '10' in 1990. I still have it! It's a brilliant album!
One of the greatest songs of all time!!!!!!!!
Question Mark and the Mysterians was the original band back in 1966 from Mexican American guys.....!!
No-one else could ever have done such a good cover of this already great song.

Not underrated by their fans. 1977 - Rattus Norvegicus. Yeah!

Just totally brilliant.
