What's your favorite (funniest)moment in the sisters video?

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.

i like the pouting, stick waving "got nothing to say i aint said before" bit from this corrosion :D

and the bit in dominion where he stands side on to the camera, leaning on his back foot waving his arms, and then disappears behind the pillar... 8)

but having a dead-looking wayne and craig in the car for the whole duration of the black planet vid is high up on the list too :lol: :lol:

Hello :)

I like the bit in Lucretia where he's doing his impression of a majorette (sp?) and kind of fumbles it :lol:

Just been reading the old UTRs - I think Von is right on this one - making a video is a case of 'damage limitation'... lol

The bit in 'Dominion' during the "be.. king.. king! .. KING!" part where he chucks his cane/sword away and starts wagging his finger at the sky like a crazy person. That always raises a smile!

Quit laughing at Von!

I like all the vids save 1959. Can't bear that one.

And if you really want to laugh at someone..go out and get The M*ssions from Dusk til Dawn and check out Mr. Hussey in those hideous outfits and lipstick. That's what makes me laugh.

Not my dear sweet Von.

My opinion as well: unbeatable.Von in the Dominion Video "Drunk in a white suit" like he said on MTV. "be king king..." and then he points his finger and falls to the side

Fave moment in Dominion is 'that' look on the Devine Ms. Morrison's face as she closes the car boot. :evil: Kill The King etc.

I like the moment in "More" when VON is almost screaming the words and is pounced by those masked women and has to fling himself about to get them off him! :-)

Funniest moment? Got to be the whole of Doctor Jeep's video. Von dressed all in white, white socks, suit and shirt and a pink tie, jumping up and down, arm gesturing and making funny faces.

And a great song it is too.

I like it a lot.
I think you don't like it because he doesn't look like the quintessencial rock star in that one, but more like a <<normal>>, <<regular>> guy, thus, not as sexy or dreamy and all that stuff.

Now, if they had really gone to town on the flowers in that it would have been an utter howler.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

The 'Okay Everybody dance!' bit in Walk Away, takes a lot of beating.

Prizes must have been on offer for silliest hair that day, with the director desperately thinking up 'thinks to do in a dark room'

Lots of mugging to the camera from Von, making him look particulaly daft too.

Just remember this. This rabble you keep talking about does most of the working, paying and dying in this community.
