Who's on the seventh floor
Brewing alternatives
What's in the bottom drawer
Waiting for things to give
Spare us the cutter
Spare us the cutter
Couldn't cut the mustard
Conquering myself
Until I see another hurdle approaching
Say we can, say we will
Not just another drop in the ocean
Come to the free for all
With seven tapered knives
Some of them six feet tall
We will escape our lives
Spare us the cutter
Spare us the cutter
Couldn't cut the mustard
Conquering myself
Until I see another hurdle approaching
Say we can, say we will
Not just another drop in the ocean
Am I the happy loss
Will I still recoil
When the skin is lost
Am I the worthy cross
Will I still be soiled
When the dirt is off
Conquering myself
Until I see another hurdle approaching
Say we can, say we will
Not just another drop in the ocean
Ocean
Watch the fingers close
When the hands are cold
Am I the happy loss
Will I still recoil
When the skin is lost
Am I the worthy cross
Will I still be soiled
When the dirt is off
Am I the happy loss
Will I still be soiled

Exactly! Echo was the name for the original drum machine, The Bunnymen, the musicians.
Lots of post saying 'Echo' as short for the band name - but iirc here in the UK it was 'the Bunnymen' we used...

Nowadays you can just pitch correct the vocal so it sucks the emotion and soul right out of it!

Saw them 40 years ago in Westcliff-on-Sea. **** I'm old, bt still sends a shiver down the very old spine.
Fond memories of trying to interpret and transcribe all of Echo and the Bunnymen's lyrics, pre-internet!
And now they are on the screen while the song plays!

Saw them live in NY last year. They still rock. Ian McCulloch is still a charismatic front man and Will Sergeant is super-underrated as a guitarist.

An absolute classic! So great to hear it on RP. And I have a list for a few other deeper tracks too from Porcupine and Heaven Up Here..! ;-)

Thank you for not playing "Killing Moon"... really tired of that one.
muh-muh-muh-mustard! LOL. Such a creative delivery!
I see the comments history includes more than one reference to good ol' WHFS from back in the day. So many bands owe their DC region airplay to that station. We're indebted to the original 9:30 as well. And nowadays we have Radioparadise. Not bad!
This was in heavy rotation when I was a teen
A WHFS staple from back in the day, this one is still fresh, and a perfect 10 for me.

2nd concert for me back in the 80's - Jan 25 1983 and they were superb. 1st concert was much better - local lads Depeche Mode at the same venue, it was their first big concert, only a few hundred there.
Bill, there is nothing from Heaven Up Here you can play on RP...?! Come on now?!
It was audacious to call a collection of singles "SONGS TO LEARN AND SING". But here in the States, not knowing much of Echo's back catalog outside of the midnight showings of "The Killing Moon" video on MTV, that's exactly what some of us did.
One of my earliest memories of New Wave music on my local radio. It was welcomed heartily.

I was in DC at the same time - a big WHFS fan. Prior to that, I thought WMMR in Philly was a good station. I was in the Baltimore area a few months back and heard Weasel on a local station. Like David Bowie and Tom Waits, his voice dropped a few octaves over the decades.
Ah to be young and aloof once again in the late 70's - early 80's Washington DC scene with WHFS blaring this in steady rotation. Man, those were the daze.
Purveyors of some of the catchiest grooves ever! Spectacular dramatic iconic soundscapes are conjured within their musical Universes, dig...

Clubbing in 1983 on Bishop Street in Montreal: this song brings it all back. Mixes well into Rational Youth's Saturdays in Silesia.

Bloody Hell. I hate really great musicians. All this skill, all this talent, it irks, it grates, sand under the sandals. I hate it when a band gets skilled, when people start liking them. I hate it when I have to be the same as someone else and like something a lot of others like.
Always liked these guys a lot, but this does not rank up there with their best work.

Phenomenal Bill! LOVE hearing this on RP...one of their classic and best tunes!
I love the way that if you had to guess the age of the album by looking at the silhouettes on the cover art. . . you would have to say '80s'.
Takes me straight to 1986 (the good part).
some singing lessons for the leader ? and I hate his voice too...
Monday Mornings never sounded so good. (Bops around on chair with enthusiasm..)
This just gets better and better with age. I remember years ago I did not really care for this very much.

If I remember the story correctly, "Echo" was their name for their drum machine when the band was first forming. I've never seen them (or been a big fan) so I'm not sure if they even have a real drummer, although I assume they do.
Indeed they did have a drummer and a fine one at that: Pete de Freitas from 1980 to 1988 when the band broke up for the first time.

Sadly de Freitas was killed in a motorcycle accident in 1989.
De Freitas' was drummer for all the pieces on this very fine compilation album. The Cutter is my favourite Echo and the Bunnyman song.

Definitely not timeless.
If Bill is building this set around the album covers, only Abbey Road can be next!
In a retrospective listening, anything of a past genre can be said to "sound the same". A lot of 1950's music sounds alike in many ways. Much of the late 1960's music sounds the same - especially psychedelia - if you want it to. All black and white films can be accused of "looking the same". To someone who only listens to classical music, all "rock and roll" may sound the same.
There were certain singing styles and production techniques of the 1980's that now make many of those bands and their songs seem "interchangeable" - perhaps even this one. I still like it though; maybe because it reminds me of a certain time in my life. There was a lot of music in the 1980's that didn't sound like this though.

Junk like this drivel led to boring noodling such as U2's pointless meandering noise to be passed off as music.

I saw this bunch earlier this year at the Loopallu festival and the lead singer was a petulant tit. They were supposed to be the highlight of the second night, but were half an hour late coming on, then when they did make a portentious and pretentious entrance with 'Echo' dressed as a monk he was brandishing a lit cigarette. Scotland is one of the first countries to have a public smoking ban, which has been in force for some years, so unless he's been living in Ulan Bator he'd know about it. He started singing, then someone off-stage must have told him to stub it out, after which he went into a paddy and moaned about not being able to have a fag through both opening numbers. The rest of the band were professional enough, but he was a grade one twat.

E & the B's! High watermark for 80's wave.
Outstanding band that deserves more attention. I'd like to hear just about anything off of Ocean Rain.
One of my favorite songs too. Pretty good job!!
My Favorite Echo and Bmen song! Pure adrenaline.
This whole album is a 10.

Bagpipes in the background! 
A nice enough song, evocative of the 80s, but I couldn't understand the lyrics then and still can't now :(
Goes well with a nice afternoon in NYC.
I thought for a minute this was Arcade Fire and had to run to turn it off. Was surprised to see it's Echo and the Bunnymen. Arcade Fire really ripped off their sound.
I remember buying this album, on vinyl, back in 1986 (along with the Cure's "Standing on a Beach") at a funky little record store in downtown Saginaw. I think I was on Christmas break at the time. Ah, this brings back great memories of college!
I used to do my catching-the-butterflies-with-a-big-net dance to this.
And? I'm okay admitting that.
They should have quit ten years ago, but this rocks!
Great song. I also like the Doors-eque Bedbugs and Ballyhoo. Echo is overlooked, IMO.
