susanne video on official site

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 had great fun watching this clip. Our hero is really swinging his hips like an Elvis Presley on gasolene ;D

an update on the official site on this matter, no videos yet, but they're offering MP3s of the song. Easier to download than the yahoo one and there is even a quality better version.

Hey, I like it! I think the audios pretty sound! Vids of dubious quiality - better than the other suzanne with too much focus on the AE bonce tho.

AVI didnt work for me!? Mpg is fine tho - thanks Quif!

I thought it read like this:
m for music
w for words (who the hell is moore?)
v for video

my guess is as good as yours.

I think you're right.

check out the lyrics pages

http://www.thesistersofmercy.com/lyrics/susanne.htm

"...Music by Mike Varjak" (no indication of who wrote the words)

compare this to:

http://www.thesistersofmercy.com/lyrics/widream.htm

"...Words by Andrew Eldritch, Music by Adam Pearson and Mike Varjak."

They've also updated the susanne page to now say "Not yet released on record, but you can find a rough live video of this song in the showcase section of this site."

I always thought AE wrote the susanne lyrics, but now I'm not so sure

I also thought so, I'm pretty sure the lyric page used to contain "words by andrew eldritch". If it was written by some else I'm prety sure that at some stage it would've been brought to everyone's attention, either via Dominion or HL...

oh and the bastard web designers at www.thesistersofmercy.com have placed robots.txt file on the site so you can't use www.archive.org to "go back in time". It's be useful if someone had a CD of the entire site from a few years back somewhere :innocent"
