Siouxsie and The Banshees - Catwalk

This song is a B-side of ’Peek-A-Boo’ 12“ (1988), which was included in ’Downside Up’ B-Sides and Rarities Album released in 2004. SIOUXSIE “The identity of this song really came into being when we were mixing ’Peepshow’ deep in the heart of Soho at the now defunct Marquee studio, which was accessed via an old dark alleyway. Every night, long after midnight with great ceremony and commotion, a ’lady of the night’ on her way home from ’work’ would stop to feed the starving local felines who would miraculously appear from out of the shadows on time.“ SEVERIN “When I was young there was a TV programme starring Helbert Lom, ’The Human Jungle’. The theme music had always stuck in my mind. It had a kind of John Barry feel with a walking bass line. This was my approximation of it. Hedges had a lot of fun with the latest sound gates, as did Siouxsie. Any opportunity to be a cat.“ Lyrics by Sioux Siouxsie -- purrfect v
