What are you listening to?

The following singer, Steve Ellis, was only 17 when he recorded the following love song - although he sounds like a mature 37. The background chorus seems to indicate however that it's in praise of the noble handicraft of knitting - with it's refain of ' Needle love to last for ever'. The video is from 1968 and is not an outtake from an Austin Powers movie - still a bit weird mind.

 
So I've been listening to this Chinese traditional fusion rock music recently. I don't understand a lick of it, but it's pleasing to my ears. Sometimes it puts me into almost a premeditative state before bed.
 
I have lived through the Eighties, heard this song 3000+ times, never knew there was a video...

..and now the video shows up on the tubes:

 

Lunatic fringe

I know you're out there
You're in hiding
And you hold your meetings
I can hear you coming
I know what you're after
We're wise to you this time (wise to you this time)
We won't let you kill the laughter
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Lunatic fringe
In the twilight's last gleaming
But this is open season
But you won't get too far
'Cause you've got to blame someone
For your own confusion
We're on guard this time (on guard this time)
Against your final solution
Oh no
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
We can hear you coming (we can hear you coming)
No, you're not going to win this time (not gonna win)
We can hear the footsteps (we can hear the footsteps)
Hey, out along the walkway (out along the walkway)
Lunatic fringe
We all know you're out there
Can you feel the resistance
Can you feel the thunder
Oh no
Hey!
