The Light Pours Out of Me
Hello. Somebody answer this for me.
I'm listening to Peter Murphy "The Light Pours Out of Me" on the really old album "Should the World Fail to Fall Apart." I just realized that Ministry have the same song on their new album. Who's song is this?!

REAL LIFE is the LP debut of the New Wave band Magazine, formed by Howard Devoto after ditching the Buzzcocks for greener pastures. They arrived just when Punk was changing to a more complex, challenging sound, and this LP stayed on the turntable at Wax Trax, where I worked, for at least a year. As a matter of fact, it was almost required to be able to do an impersonation of Howard's very idiosyncratic vocal style to BE employed by Wax Trax. Dave Formula's wonderful, swirling keyboards and Barry Adamson's intricate, in-the-pocket bass work were, for me, the other indispensible factors which made Magazine one of the best post-punk bands. The whole album is truly original, from "Shot By Both Bides" to "Burst" to "My Tulpa" to "The Light Pours Out Of Me" to the majestic "Parade". One reviewer has called this album "The post-punk ground zero", and I can agree. One listen to REAL LIFE and you will ( ... )
