House Of Love • Destroy The Heart (Official Video)

👌❤️🖤🖤❤️

for Bitey

Any film with this song in its credits would be one of the greatest movie endings of all time.

what Allison did to me

What a music video.

un des meilleurs morceau du groupe et un clip arty chiantissime

Great to see them at Bedford Esquires yesterday.

unbelievable, should have been massive - seeing them in Liverpool on 16th Sept 👍

Very under-rated. They came out with this and everyone was blown away, press, who now pretend to think they're not cool included!....saw them at, Doin It for the Kids, the Creation night at Town and County Club. This song was incredible.

First heard it queuing up in Eastern Bloc record shop Manchester to buy The Smiths Rank. We had been queuing since 9 am and The Smiths delivery never arrived for over two hours. Asked the bloke behind the counter who it was but he just blanked me. Was Martin Price the grumpy cunt out of 808 State. Some kid in the queue clued me in. Happy days.

I sense Andy, Mark, Steve and Loz heard this stuff as teens and then became Ride

Masterpiece

Just beautiful

Still have this Vinyl...saw them Live in Sunderland Polytechnic in 1989...with my aul mate Russell Waterhouse who drove up from London and back.....in 24 hours...top times.

Once upon a time when music eas great

i think my tape player's goin' bad...

American who loves the HOL!

I am now 51 and am still suffering from parental distaste. Bastards!
On the plus side, I met a girl from Leeds while I was working in Portugal. She had a snake tattoo on one leg.
It was one night, but I fell in love. We talked about this band and many others of the era until about 4 in the morning on her balcony. I was to meet her the next night but ended up stuck working at the airport at Faro. Fucking work!
Internet.
Should you chose it.
Find my Algarve lover.
She listened to The Brilliant Corners, The Smiths, Pixies, ETC. She is from Leeds, has a sister (who was present on the night) and we met in “on the rocks” . The Olympics were on TV and she told me her and her sister were synchronised swimmers!
Thanks internet

I was this odd Okie boy in the early 90s who stumbled into random record stores in Tulsa and coke away with stuff like The Stone Roses, Primal Scream and The House of Love. I didn’t need to be guided or herded by a crowd. I discovered them on my own. Sometimes you just know.

snub

Destroy the heart, she said
It'll make you want to smash your head
Destroy the heart she said
But I need her more than I need air

Destroy the heart, she said
You will suffer and be scared
Worry, sweat and never care
But I need her more than I need air
Yes, I need her more than I need air

Baby said, I was never fun
Above the waist, completely dumb
Baby said, I should make a life
Something solid and I should suffer

Baby said, I had more to say
Than the usual boys who were just really pains
Baby said, I had so much more
But that she could not do any more for me

Destroy the heart, she said
Better soon we will be quite dead
She wanted freedom not a shackled man
But I need her more than I need air
Yes, I need her more than I need air

Baby said, I was never fun
Above the waist, completely dumb
Baby said, I should make a life
Something solid and I should suffer

Destroy the heart, she said
It'll make you want to smash your head
Destroy the heart, she said
But I need her more than I need air
Yes, I need her and I wanted her
I need her more than life itself

The Louder It is The Better ............

Saw The House Of Love play at the ULU. Sometime in the late-80s. Wish I had not been so drunk on cheap snakebites. I would have a better recollection of them. They should have been massive.

Ah shit, that's just what I needed. Thank you!

Well. The dislikes proves there's 5 cunts in the world

Terrible video . Terrible

Bastard brilliant 😍

Reminds me of listening to John Peel on Radio 1 with my finger hovering over the record button.

forgot abou this...very bunnymen

seen them at the barrowlands in glasgow.....................superb

Such an oddly sparse video yet quite effective. No one but Guy looks at the camera lol.

It just grabs you and flings you around!

god I need her more than I need AIR !

love so much this song

Weirdly still video for such a powerful track. Its slowness contrasts dramatically with the song's power and urgency. Someone I read once described this single as having been 'unleashed' rather than 'released' after their debut album: Perfectly put.

The best by them 😍

How is it that I'm just discovering this amazing song now?

'Limited Edition' 99p on Creation Records, best quid I ever spent.

<3

Catchy!

Ahh, an amazingly beautiful song! Alas, ALL of The House of Love's music is so rich and "sweet" & with such fresh and flowing energy. 'A vastly overlooked band

I have tingles

Thanx for posting.i still love this.

The name of the song says it all

Brazil

terrible musak

Destroy the heart she said
It'll make you want to smash your head
Destroy the heart she said
But I need her more than I need air

Epic...

I first heard this in 88 I always thought they would be superstars bigger than shitty u2
