Nancy Holloway also recorded a version of "Deja le jour se leve" as the B-side of her single "Prends garde a toi". French singer Francois Feguelt recorded a French version titled "Deja le jour se leve" (1963). Chart performance Ĭhart entries as "I'm Lookin' out the Window" / "Do You Want to Dance":Ĭhart entries as "Do You Want to Dance" or "Do You Want to Dance" / "I'm Lookin' out the Window": As was more usual on singles in the early part of Richard's career, "Do You Want to Dance" also featured the Shadows backing Richard. Notably, it also became the sole or primary listed song of the single in some countries' charts (refer to the Chart performance section below). The song was somewhat overshadowed by its upbeat B-side, " Do You Want to Dance", which gained its own UK chart position of number 10 in the New Musical Express singles chart as it allowed separate listing of B-sides. It was only Richard's second song released as a single without the backing of his band the Shadows (known as the Drifters on his first five singles). It reached number 2 in the UK Singles Chart and was successful in numerous other countries. Deathconsciousness is also due for vinyl reissue in the spring.Cliff Richard version "I'm Lookin' out the Window"Ĭliff Richard with the Norrie Paramor Orchestra recorded it for release as a single in 1962. And, on an album that maintains a plodding pace, "Defenestration Song" is the kind of pitch-black, post-punk party-rocker that'd really turn up at any Goth Night dance. It's a far cry from the thin-sounding version that appeared on the Voids demos and B-sides collection, that's for sure. (A fitting title, as defenestration is the act of throwing someone or something out the window.) A two-note guitar riff is barely heard above the dank din as warming feedback permeates the whole affair, like the kind that lulls you to sleep just before an icy death. 
With a driving rhythm and distorted bass line out of classic Bauhaus, "Defenestration Song" sounds restless and ominous in its movement.
