Walk Away

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.

Came across this on Youtube: 'Sisters Of Mercy Walk Away Chicago Exit Club 1984 (Original Lyrics)' (sorry don't know how to paste the link) and was wondering if anyone knows what the different lyrics actually are. Am presuming it's a very early Walk Away but they sound rather different.

I don't think they've ever been transcribed, and a lot of the time they just sound like "mumble mumble mumble", even on the clearest recordings (Trojan Horse, etc).
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

I used to have the whole gig on VHS bootleg until the tape buggered up. They did Abba's Gimme Gimme Gimme (A Man After Midnight)!
