The Breeders - Safari

'Safari' by The Breeders

[bucklaughlin]

Kim and Tanya. My middle aged heart feels like it’s 20 again when I watch this. Tanya was bouncing between Throwing Muses, Breeders, and then Belly. A great musician.

[SJam]

Cool music is so accessible now. In summer 1990, I had wait until 1 AM or so to see this video on MTV's "120 Minutes."

I could just sit and listen to ahh and ooh the whole album. The actual lyrics are a bonus with that ethereal, unreal, incredible voice she has. The sound of her voice embodies and brings me back to that time. It's simply amazing.

[spellman]

This video has given me so much comfort over the years its so hypnotic, cool and pure Kim.

[Be]

Her voice is one of my all time favorites in rock and roll.

[BillLaBrie]

I love the Soviet-era public access TV look. This made my day.

1:57 - 2:12 so haunting and dreamy and ethereal. Makes me feel like I'm floating through the sound of Kim's voice.

I met Tanya Donnelly back stage in SDSU with her band Belly in 92'. She was very nice to us.

I saw this the day it first aired on MTV and since then I've watched it hundreds of times. At age 50 in 2023 I feel pretty ok saying that this is the greatest music video ever made. Perfect in every way.

The song hands down is awesome, and the way the video was dore in Black Sabbath style makes it that much more special.

[EXQCmoi]

This is a perfect piece of rock music. It has a heart, it has balls, it is rebellious, it's melodic, it's rough, it's tender, it's awkward. And that mixed presence - partly rock/punk, partly frumpy - is downright funny.

[francoharefield]

Always loved Kim’s facial expressions when singing, luv that drummer to 👌

[rosettak]

Ii remember Kim Deal saying this video was inspired by Black Sabath's Paranoid video. Clasic!

[danigolightly]

I cannot DEAL with how awesome this is.

Man...The Breeders in 1993?

I was 16yrs old and Alternative Music Revolution was in full swing.

The Kids had Won...GenX.

We took over the radio

[Fatherjohn]

This is so effortlessly cool it makes 2020 cool look like an embarrassing cartoon

[crystalflood]

the more I listen, the more I love them

[htw]

Y'unz can have your 90s boy-led bands. Give me the Breeders, Belly, and Throwing Muses any day!

[gavinchristophersen]

Kim made Pixies when she was with them and her and her sisters style in The Beeders is just phenomenal and beautifully unique. Rock on beautiful ladies 🤘🏻

[nickdryad]

I love that snare sound. As well as everything else.
