The Bela Lugosi's Dead Thread
 
What's your opinion on it should you have one? I like it more than I used to!

Pineapple_Juice 08-28-2009 03:22 AM

Overrated.

The Divine Ms. M 08-28-2009 03:30 AM

Hey Pineapple Juice!
 
Point well made w/one word. brilliant!

SiouxsiePernova 08-28-2009 03:46 AM

It's become something of a Goth cliche.

The Divine Ms. M 08-28-2009 03:57 AM

Yes, unfortunately so

...And you were still compelled to make a thread about it?

It's ok. A nice little ditty.

Funnily enough, I was in Forbidden Planet (London) a few weeks ago and I heard it playing on the in-store PA system!

It's a nice song, but it's a cliche. It's to Death Rock, as Smoke in the water is to Hard Rock.

Sadly, a lot of old Goth songs have probably become cliches of themselves!...

She Sells Sanctuary
Lucerita My Reflection
Preacher Man
Etc, etc, etc...

You know you're getting old when you hear Moonchild being played on BBC Radio 2!

I just wanted opinions.

I can probably count on one hand how many times I've listened to it all the way through. Bauhaus has far better stuff.

On-topic, though, I think BLD is a fun sort of song, good for when you're feeling cheesy or wish the first 20 minutes of The Hunger would last the whole movie. I also like to hum it when I'm at the Cinnabon counter.

Duane 08-28-2009 10:17 PM

It is Friday, and I'm in love, however for the time being it's forbidden.

Ah, but it's always time for The Cure! Hahahaha

I love covers of this song, even more than the original. Electric Hellfire Club's is my favorite.

SweetJane 09-22-2009 12:28 PM

M friend who I was LEAST likely to think liked this song (he's my best friend, and I never would have brought them up becuase it's just one of those bands I thought we'd fight about) had this song up on youtube the other day and I almost died laughing. It was great. He's into Mod/s.h.a.r.p. music, mostly.

Pineapple_Juice 09-22-2009 01:16 PM

Bowowowowowowowowow undead undead undead


Basically the premise of the whole song.

Lurci 10-17-2009 02:40 AM

I like it a lot. Lately though, i'm finding myself liking "Mask" more

skoteinh 10-19-2009 08:45 AM

I think it's a classic, not a cliche.

And I still can't get enough of it.

BTW, I think Friday I'm in Love is one of the worst Cure songs, and I am a fan of the Cure.
