Happy Siouxsie Sioux Day! This is the picture I had hanging over my bed throughout college. I bought it in Columbus Ohio. This is where the cool alternative record stores were located. I bought this poster along with Joy Division's Love Will Tear Us Apart for my freshmen year dorm room. I was and still am a huge Siouxsie fan.

My personal favorites: Christine, Dazzle, Dear Prudence, Hong Kong Garden, Arabian Knights, and Love in a Void.

Lyrics for Christine:

She tries not to shatter, kaleidoscope style
Personality changes behind her red smile
Every new problem brings a stranger inside
Helplessly forcing one more new disguise

Christine-the strawberry girl
Christine-banana split lady

Singing sweet savages lost in our world
This big-eyed girl sees her faces unfurl
Now she's in purple Now she's the turtle
disintegrating

Christine-the strawberry girl
Christine-banana split lady
22 faces...disintegrating.

Dazzle lyrics:

swallowing diamonds
a cutting throat
your teeth when you grin
reflecting beams on tombstones

a jamboree of surprises
playing russian roulette
or the lucky clip
a clenched fist to your heart
coal dust on your lungs

a silver tongue for the chosen one
heavy magnum in your side or a bloody thorn

skating bullets on angel dust
in a dead sea of fluid mercury
baby piano cries
under your heavy index and thumb
pull some strings -- let them sing

the stars that shine and the stars that shrink
in the face of stagnation the water runs
before your eyes
dazzle
it's a glittering prize
