Gothic Accordion


Siouxsie and The Banshees recorded this mysterious song in 1988. It was backmasked then Siouxsie sang over layers of new music and the reversed tracks.

Television version of song, Peek-A-Boo.

Yes, Mister Anchovy there is a riff from the 20's and the band gave them writing credits on the lyrics (and I suppose some royalties!).

I really liked the silhouettes of the accordion player...
