A sumptuous film clip directed by John Hillcoat is set, variously, in Werribee Mansion and a milk-filled suburban spa-bath (the pumps of which were spitting out cheese for weeks afterwards). The clip also featured a magic lantern, a menagerie of reptiles, and a young Noah Taylor wearing a dried parsnip on his nose. It is available on You Tube.
A performance of The Finer Things on Hey Hey it's Saturday is included as a bonus with the album 'All That Fall'.

~ the finer things ~
.
i need a key.
i need that luxury,
clearly.
with cameras and cages and cars,
I follow the lives of the stars
are you sending out?
or are you sealing in
some of THE FINER THINGS
in life?
your ebony rose
grows where no one goes -
a cold road.
the shade
of the years,
that I should know
I should know so well -
I laid all I had on a spell
*
I need a key -
I need that luxury,
banshee ...
spin with me spin with me well;
I've laid all I had on a spell.
well are you sending out?
or are you sealing in
some of THE FINER THINGS I know?

40 years ago I found them or they found me. Since their music caught me more and more: It's the sound, the atmosphere, their uniqueness. Many unforgettable songs here: Belief, Heaven is Waiting, Hide, Hold on, Red Light, Somewhere, The Hurt (and I love the Album VI), but my favourite is Clock. Wonder what Steve R. is doing... Thank you for having been/being The Danse Society. cryptie66
