I really love this song ("She Sells Sanctuary" by The Cult) but I've always found Ian Astbury's dance moves to it frankly disconcerting and a bit over elaborate.

He incorporates quite a variety of moves instead of just sticking to one theme. Unfortunately none of them seem to quite work.

Someone obviously thought exactly the same as me and put his little dance on a loop.

Check out his little pony gallop followed by his rather half hearted two footed leap while while using the microphone stand for leverage and yet still only managing to clear the ground by all of two inches ...

Something about the way he sang 'Do you want to be in my gang......"

I could never equate the geezer singing this big song I loved to drive to, with him being as camp as christmas when I saw the band on tv, for the first time....

Sweet bit of editing btw...

I think "the march" is something Daltrey introduced a bit later in their career as it was not something I was aware of in The Who's 60s hey day but it was something I gradually became more and more aware of. Or as someone called it in this youtube clip his "where the f*** did I put my keys" dance...

That's very funny! I didn't register you saying it was on a (ten minute!) loop so pressed play and sat back for a listen.

Thought, that's a longer intro than I remember...

Watching it is quite mesmerising actually.

His inability to sing is also a concern

And his inability to not act like a petulant **** and acceptance that many of us don't give a rats ass about the beef with his brother.

I never noticed until someone on here pointed it out, Simster I think, but David Gray's head wobble now really annoys me.

Luckily nobody has had to see him perform since 2003.

David Gray's bobble head. I don't know how he doesn't get dizzy.

You'll be pleased to know you can actually get a David Gray Bobble Head Doll... and here's a video of it in action. You could have hours of fun whilst listening to White Ladder (well 52.37 minutes at least)...

Me too, I was waiting for him to start singing!.

The dancing is outstanding, for a 4 yr old.
