Song Saturday/Art Sunday Combo: Bauhaus' All We Ever Wanted

This Song Saturday/Art Sunday Combo blog was originally published on Blogster August 9, 2013.

 

How's it going my hybrid Blogsterian friends? It's that time again. This week, I decided to combine Song Saturday and Art Sunday with a Bauhaus fan made music video. This kills 2 birds with 1 stone. 

Lately, I have been listening to more Bauhaus. Those of us, who listen to Classic Goth Punk/New Wave Music have known about the band for years. If you have ever watched South Park within the last 10-16 years, there were Goth kids, that Stan hung out with a few times in the Comedy Central cartoon. Someone in the cartoon had a Bauhaus poster on his/her bedroom wall.

Every time I listen to Bauhaus, I now automatically think about the Goth kids on South Park. I haven't watched it within the last 7 years. I am amazed that South Park still airs on Comedy Central. When it premiered, I was only 15 years old.

As usual, I digress. If you don't know about Bauhaus, they are only 1 of the pioneer bands of Goth Rock. Joy Division (now turned New Order) and The Cure were also pioneers of the Goth Punk Rock/New Wave Genre.

Several years ago, Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor did a collaborative performance with Peter Murphy of Bauhaus on some of their classic songs. They performed Bauhaus' "Bela Lugosi's Dead" and covered Joy Division's song, "Dead Souls."

BTW: Nine Inch Nails covered Joy Division's, "Dead Souls" on The Crow Soundtrack, 20 years ago.

Anyway, enough of the history lesson. Here's a YouTube fan made music video, that somebody did for Bauhaus', "All We Ever Wanted." There's no need to worry (that's in case some of you are), it's nothing heavy.
