Eight Arms

Found something for an All Hallows Eve post.

Daisy Chain were a mediocre mid-80's garage band from germany featuring a great singer with Debbie Harry hairdo and a raspy voice (reminding me of Jennifer Herrema of Royal Trux, so really raspy). Jani - thats the girl's name - would have deserved a better, more focused band.
Still, on "Do What Thou Wilt" (Don't know if they were Crowley fans - actually on the cover shots, they look like some provincial cult members) there are a few pearls to be found.
"Love to Live" f.i. is a blazing garage rocker:

Daisy Chain - Love to Live

"Eight Arms" on the other hand is something all together different. A run of the mill piano-ballad, that starts innocently enough with "what your love means to me, you will never know, what your love means to me, I will try to show", once it gets to the chorus things get a bit creepy:
I got eight arms to hold you baby
I got eight arms to care for you,
Oh just say you love me too
And I'll give my love to you
