One of the greatest Alternative Rock drummers ever, Pete D. I started playing drums in the early 80s and he was a HUGE influence. So much so, my last band in 2020, was covering this song, per my suggestion.

Saw them a month later in Utah. Triple bill with New Order and Gene Loves Jezebel. First date with my future wife. I despised New Wave, being a huge Zeppelin fan, but she was just 18 and I was 22. You gotta do what you gotta do. I hit the Chess King and decked myself out. Satin jacket with shoulder pads. Bolo tie. The works. Even cut my hair for the first time in 5 years. It worked.

I have to agree with you on Ian's singing. I saw EATBM back back in the early 80's in NYC and again in 2017 in Asbury Park. Ian's years of smoking has taken a toll on one of the greatest and mesmerizing voices in music history (IMHO). I can hear his voice crack many times in this video and it got worse as time marched on, so much so that when he had to adjust his style and sing everything an octave lower than he did in the 80's. His voice has a totally different sound to it these days as well, more raspy and deeper. You would never know that yesterday's Bunnymen was the same band as it is today. Even the song writing is changed, not for the better. I have to live in the past, sadly, "Nothing lasts for ever" and nothing stays the same...
