The Cult

The Cult are a British rock band formed in 1983. They gained a dedicated following in Britain in the mid 1980s as a post-punk band with singles such as "She Sells Sanctuary", before breaking mainstream in the United States in the late 1980s as a hard rock band with singles such as "Love Removal Machine" and "Fire Woman". The band fuse a "heavy metal revivalist" sound with the "pseudo-mysticism ... of The Doors [and] the guitar-orchestrations of Led Zeppelin ... while adding touches of post-punk goth rock". Since their earliest form in Bradford during 1981, the band have had various line-ups; the longest-serving members are vocalist Ian Astbury and guitarist Billy Duffy, the band's two songwriters. more »

I like the way you shape the sky, mama
I like the way you shake the night, yeah
I like the way you whip my mind, lover
I like the way you whip my mind, yeah
I want to take you down with me, lover
Into the heart of the dark with me, yeah

Take a trip inside
Cast the spell you hide, yeah
Take a trip

Be a witch, girl, be a thief, girl
Steal my crown and resurrect me
Be a nymph, girl, a cool thief, yeah
Burn the night and dance around me
