I actually started to check some of these videos out again. Looking at Sanity again I am reminded why KJ never hit it big with this song. Watching Jaz sing it he always has the same tense/jittery delivery. It doesn't matter if he's singing Sanity, Democracy, or MINOG it's all the same uptight, wild-eyed, bounce/dance delivery.

Yeah, Geordie even mouths some of the words at one point -- a sight I've never seen. I didn't realize he knew any words : )

Suprisingly, that video is more palatable than some of the other mid-'80s Killing Joke ones, if for nothing else than the use of actual newsreel footage vs. some actor in a dull scenario (e.g. Love Like Blood). The outfits are priceless.

I think I heard once that whatever body paint Geordie was supposed to have on him turned the wrong color and went horribly wrong. (But that goes without saying...)

 I always wondered about that video. It was the most animated I've ever seen Geordie.

Just seen it on YouTube (for the first time ever).

Speechless...

Geordie in pink lipstick. All the lads bare chested
(apart from Jaz, of course).

Killing Joke *really* made the 1980s homo-erotic look
their own, didn't they?
