Siouxsie And The Banshees - The Ghost In You



does anyone know other songs with the similar vibes or feelings as this song. I love the emotions behind these words and the composition.

If you're talking about stark, beautiful Banshee goodness, this one is my go-to pick:

The Last Beat of My Heart (1988)



This is also quite lush and beautiful.

The Sweetest Chill (1986)



These are a bit more "out there", but I think are just as beautiful, if not more so!

Melt! (1982)



Into the Light (1981)



Desert Kisses (1980)



Hybrid (1980)

Considering "The Ghost In You" is a somber song about the Tiananmen Square massacre, that makes it pretty unique lyrically in the Banshees' catalogue.

Musically similar songs to me would be others from that Superstition period:

Little Sister
Staring Back
Return
Sea Of Light

These earlier tracks might go well with it too:

Land's End
Lullaby
Something Blue
Shooting Sun
Sleepwalking (On The High Wire)

I agree with pld71 that you should get the Downside Up box set of b-sides if you don't have it already.
