Iahturi – Tipul Yachting
Why did you mix the Joy Division video with Yachts track?
Same question ! There is also The Jam, Buzzcocks…
One of the greatest songs backing up such a dumbass video. Why?
"don't look into her eyes! you're bound to all those hipnotising lies"
Or something like this.
Where's Hipnotising Lies?
Pleeeese post it!
Been looking for The Yachts for so long.
All I ever knew of them here in Brazil was the 45 single.
Now all this is here on youtube.
Just read they split when I was living in NY.
Never heard them playing on WPLJ "New York's best rock".
Grymt bra band – Very good music. Loved it since the 80s
any more Yachts? I had 2 albums by them, would love to hear more stuff.

Totally agree, I still have the album. Great band, wanky video.
Got the album on record. Anyone wanna buy it? It's for sale at seventeen million pounds. Because it rocks and I wont let go of it.
WOW…never saw (or even knew) there was a performance clip of this one…thank you
seems like every band on ere but the yachts how biarre when they were amazing
Pretty bizzarre to mash up the Yachts with a Joy Division video
It is a video of The Undertones not Joy Division.
I love, love, love this song. I used to request it from a local radio station in Atlanta. The DJ would generally conclude the request with the words . ."and there you have it. Nothing is worse than a Yuppie with a boat." Great guitars in the band.
Damn , I never knew that Yachts were such accomplished shape shifters , this whole album rocks
A hidden gem
Most under-rated band of all time…IMO.
The Yachts are an excellent band. I wish they had made some videos. I wish some live shows were on here. Here's a Peel session.. https://youtu.be/5j9KJvv4T8s
