There isn't a stereo in existence that can play this loud enough...

These guys (Ian and Billy) belong in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame

That riff has worn a groove in my brain over the years. My ears are fucked but I can still hear it.

[NZappone]

Billy Duffy is a BOSS. Unbelievably memorable opening riff.

THE CULT SHOULD BE IN THE ROCK N ROLL HALL OF FAME :)

One of my favorite songs, never get tired of hearing it. Billy Duffy is one of the most underappreciated guitarists in the past 30 or so years. Having seen this band several times, he's very tight live, and you can see his passion for music. I don't think he gets the credit he deserves for his guitar ability and talents.

I swear Billy has never ever played a sour note. This is scorching and i keep coming back to it. Thankful I grew up in the 80's

I DISCOVERED the Cult when I was walking late at night along 1st Street in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and heard Music pouring out of some obscure night club, that isn't even there anymore, went in and joined about 20-30 people. Heard Sanctuary, heard Love. 10 feet away on the Dance Floor. HOOKED ever since. What a Gem to stumble on!

[Spiritwalker]

Great version, that riff from Billy, such power. I really love those extra melodical licks Billy does. Best band ever. What a heroes. CFFC

[andyg]

This song is literally a part of my being on this planet.Thank you Ian and Billy for this gift.

[ewancallison]

What a version this is!! Simply brilliant.

[retrobox]

This songs like a fine wine....hairs stood on the back of my neck then and still do now.

[johnking]

Wow! Ian you sound absolutely incredible! Such an amazing version all these years later. CFFC!!!!

[gwilson]

I Get Chills Every time I Listen To 80's Era Rock...I Had Just turned 18 In 1984 When The Big Hair And Makeup Bands Blew The Lid Off Of The Rock And Roll Scene.!!! Great Memories, Best Rock Ever..!!!

[normie]

The Cult! The sparkle in your eyes
Keeps me alive

[carloe]

Damn I'm getting old but at least I know they knew back then how to make music.Probably one of the best songs ever

[StealthParrot]

I forgot just how freakin' great this song is. Awesome!

[bonniemiller]

The Cult is timeless rock and roll! Never goes out of style! (And Ian pulls off the man-bun quite well!)

[jmzbnd]

awesome..ole days..real instruments. no lip synch
.real rock

[cloudattack]

Great to see Ian crack out the lyric a lot closer to the original cut. They sound awesome. Something about his voice puts him right up there with the rock greats. It's the best "yeaheh" in the business...
