The 69 eyes

I looked for a 69 eyes thread for a while now and could not find one so i thought i would make one.

Does any one here like The 69 eyes?

I'm not a fan. In my oppinion they sound like a Sisters of Mercy wanna-be band.

I am a fan. The voice does remind me of Andrew in many songs, though. But that's what I like: his voice.

I rather like the 69 Eyes because of their resemblance to the Sisters of Mercy. The lead singer is like a Finnish Andrew Eldrich, and in my book anything Finnish = good.

I like them but I haven't heard enough to call myself a fan as my knowledge is limited to what has been played on the Batcave(totalrock.com radio show).

They are alright. I really like the song "Gothic girl" it's so delightfully cheesy.

I love the 69 eyes, my favourite song is Wasting the Dawn. Jussi is quite sexy which is a bonus.

Not really. Sharing their nationality I often hear them on the radio but that's it.

Aside from talent, there's something the 69 eyes has that I love.
Vocalist Jyrki is an international goodwill ambassador for UNICEF, the children's rights charity. He is currently helping to campaign against child trafficking and sexual exploitation in parts of West Africa.
