gold 'n brown
spotted on this day last year
as we explored the streets
of Cloverdale.
"golden brown
texture like sun
lays me down
with my mind she runs
throughout the night
no need to fight
never a frown
with golden brown "
song - The Stranglers - "Golden Brown" - 1982

The video for "Golden Brown" was directed by Lindsey Clennell. It depicts the band members as explorers in Egypt in the 1920s and performers for a fictional "Radio Cairo".
The video is intercut with stock footage of the Giza pyramid complex, the Mir-i-Arab Madrasah in Bukhara, the Shah Mosque in Isfahan, the Great Sphinx, sailing feluccas, Bedouins riding camels, and camel racing in the United Arab Emirates. The performance scenes were filmed in the Leighton House Museum in Holland Park, London, which was also featured in the video for "Gold" by Spandau Ballet in 1983.
