should take part in some beautiful, artistic advertising campaign of some exquisite alcoholic beverage or parfume. I doubt it ever happens but it would be great.the sisters do dior?
Hey, what "bunch of" films I need to know. At the moment I only recall "Gegen Die Wand" (which was a great film and the choice of that particular song in a film about that particular face of Hamburg was spot-on in my opinion). As for this Dior website, I think it's a bit less spot-on but still not bad at all. And I still maintain what I came up with about 20 years ago: should take part in some beautiful, artistic advertising campaign of some exquisite alcoholic beverage or parfume. I doubt it ever happens but it would be great.

The only time I ever heard The Sisters on film was in Rainman-the Tom Cruise/Dustin Hoffman film.

Kind of a strange pairing but I give Dior some credit for picking such an awesome song 
was never per se opposed to Sister's songs appearing in adverts, films etc (except Crow type ones obviously). There's a difference between writing something for money and getting paid for the use of one of your songs. Nick Cave, I think regreted writing a song for the Batman (if i remember rightly) film, purely because it bought him a house.The Chancer Corporation

And as for the latter - fortunately so ... it didn't get Iggy Pop much further appearing in such films ...abridged wrote:

I would not call it an 80's band either. Not only because of Vision Thing of which More was launced into commercial charts but you as a Belgian should nowchristophe wrote:
I'm a young pup, I know thisand I have gotten to know tsom in the 2000s so I have not lived trough their peak moment but I never have gotten the impression the general audience really know them, ever.
that the Sisters reached their widest audience in Belgium because of TOL 92 which got a high chart position in several countries next to Belgium. Inspite (or should I say because) of that, the song was no part of the setlist at the PP 92
gig. The Inglese did not play Temple Of Love.
I know the song finds it's origin in the 80's but it certainly did not sound like it in the 90's.

word for word, sister I do think it's cool Dior uses The Sisters music. And I don't think it's a 'hey this songs sounds familiar and it's cheap too' kind of thing for them.
They (the Dior peepz) probably love the Sisters' cool and feel the music fits perfectly with their concept & vision
I know more Fashion people that adore the Sisters more than just a little...
It's a bit like Bowie, also very populair in those circles...
Oh, and in my opinion they very much are an old B-klass band! But there is no other like them and they're obviously way more interesting than the A-listers!

shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather....
I had no idea Sisters songs were in that many films. I should watch Showgirls for that reason! But I don't want to watch Rain Man again. Anyone please tell me in which scene there's Sisters, and why, so I don't have to watch

I have to correct myself ... what I had remembered to be GQ was in fact the Austrian magazine EGO which exisited only from 1991 'til 1995 ...Being645 wrote:Oh, in Germany you could even hear them on the standard radio ...
In addition,
such as GQ or The Rolling Stone (Bowie interview) * ... and - possibly - for a few unknown local leaflets ...

I've still got this article somewhere ... as soon as I've found it, I'll upload it to the gallery - it is however in German ...

Yes, it is a hilarious Japanese newspaper serial novel from 1905.
Just another thought on topic. Maybe girls and guys view this differently. I love Dior make-up and fragrances (and I might love their other stuff too if I could afford to try it). So Sisters + Dior to me feels like a sexy combination.
(sorry if that sounds wacky
)
I would probably find it too commercial, like sellout etc., if it were H+M or Coke or something like that. I buy my shirts at H+M, but there's nothing interesting about them.

^I'll have to look into that novel! I'm fascinated with all Japanese & Asian things. May even get an Asian inspired tatt. when I'm in London June
H&M is my fav clothing store too but we dun have one here. Only the Mainlands
Back on topic..would like to see Gucci use a Sisters tune for one of their shows. Not up on the whole fashion industry but I like some of Gucci's line.
