For alternative FASHION: goth, dark alt, grunge, punk, harajuku, whatever! This means MAKEUP and CLOTHING. This is NOT a music community. What makes a look alternative?: Just ask yourself, do you see the day to day average person wearing this? No? Does it catch your eye for being different? Yes? Then it is likely alternative fashion! This category is massive. read my post about this here _*Note: In the context of fashion, the term 'goth' has evolved and may not necessarily reflect the goth subculture (a goth is anyone who listens to goth music). To respect real goths, I prefer using 'alt' instead. I reserve the term 'goth' for clarity to the average person._

The Dark Fairy Godmother of Goth Fashion

This video shows off a great compilation of early 80s styles, for both men and women.

Lyrics:

From the cradle bars
Comes a beckoning voice
It sends you spinning
You have no choice
You hear laughter
Cracking through the walls
It sends you spinning
You have no choice
You hear laughter
Cracking through the walls
It sends you spinning
You have no choice
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Spellbound
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound, oh, oh, oh
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound
And don't forget when your elders forget
To say their prayers
Take them by the legs
And throw them down the stairs
When you think your toys
Have gone berserk
And it's an illusion
You cannot shirk
You hear laughter
Cracking through the walls
It sends you spinning
You have no choice
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Spellbound
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound, oh, oh, oh
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Entranced
Entranced
Tranced, tranced, tranced

Cities In Dust is a favorite of mine as well, she inspires me to just wail about things I love

Glad you dig. She kept it going too - here she is in 1987, with one of my favs of all time, The Passenger.
