Another one from The Tube (non-London)

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

Odd Video Alert!
I really don't know what to make of it. That video looks like it's made in the eighties, but it's just so totally not The Sisters' style.

Polls will never answer the question of whether or not something is authentic.

Big time fake - neither the lips nor the video cuts synch with the music, it doesn't look anything like :von:, I can't really see him going for a two-tone mullet (today yes, but not in 84/85), and why would someone go to all the expense of shooting a video specifically to show on The Tube when most of the time didn't they use the "regular" video anyway?

Well, in all fairness, I've often thought that T'Mish were a bunch of old women, so it is possible that the birds in the pre-revolutionary French get-up and the kid on his BMX really did go on to form the Mishun. It was the BMX that really gave it away - :von: rides a Grifter, as ane ful kno.

"Is it authentic?" isn't really the correct question to be asking oneself when watching this video clip. The correct question is something along the lines of, "Is this a TSoM video?" - and of course, the correct answer to that question is, "Don't be daft, ffs!"
:lol: :roll: :|

While on the subject, other good questions one might ask include, "Whose crap video is this, anyway?" and, ultimately, "Who gives a rat's arse, really?"

Unless of course it's from that short lived and little publicised period when David Van Day stood in to cover for Eldrich during a particularly nasty bout of record company baiting ...

It seems to be some daft New Romantic types acting out a sketch from the end of the Benny Hill Show. Surreal, but not Real.

Can someone speed it up and redub it with the Benny Hill "chase" music? It would be great.
