Terrorvision
Terrorvision is an English rock band. It was formed in 1987 (originally as The Spoilt Bratz) in Keighley, and initially disbanded in 2001. The band used Bradford as a base after the name change to Terrorvision in 1991, by which time the band members had left home and all moved there.
Career
The re-release of their second single, "My House" (from the album Formaldehyde), in January 1994 proved to be Terrorvision's breakthrough to UK Singles Chart success, and preceded by months the release of their second album How to Make Friends and Influence People in April 1994. The leading single from that album, "Oblivion", was also a chart success. All subsequent singles achieved Top 40 entries in the UK, culminating in the release of "Tequila", which reached number 2.
A video compilation, Fired Up and Lairy, was released in April 1995, and included spoof documentary segments interspersed with all the band's videos to date. A third album, Regular Urban Survivors, followed in March 1996, and spawned four singles; "Perseverance" (their first Top 5 single, peaking at number 5), "Celebrity Hit List", "Bad Actress" and "Easy". Lead singer, Tony Wright, presented the BBC TV music show Top of the Pops on one occasion, and made several appearances on the comedy music quiz Never Mind the Buzzcocks.
TerrorVision
TerrorVision is an American horror-comedy film released in 1986.
The film was directed by Ted Nicolaou, produced and written by Albert and Charles Band and composed by Richard Band, all of whom would go on to found and work with Full Moon Features in 1989. TerrorVision was made by Empire International Pictures, the production company owned by Charles Band prior to Full Moon.
Plot
On an alien planet named Pluton, an alien garbage disposal converts a monstrous mutant called a Hungry Beast into energy and beams it into space. Meanwhile on Earth, the Putterman family is getting satellite television, courtesy of a temperamental DIY antenna. The reception is poor at first, but suddenly strengthens when a bolt of the alien energy hits the dish.
The little boy Sherman Putterman and his ex-military, survivalist grandfather enjoy a night of horror films hosted by the buxom Medusa, while Sherman's parents go out to meet some swingers and his sister goes to see her boyfriend, named O.D. Sherman and his grandfather eventually fall asleep, but are woken when the Hungry Beast materializes out of the TV and eats the grandfather. Sherman's parents arrive at this point with swingers Cherry and Spiro, and lock up Sherman in his grandfather's bunker. There, the Beast imitates the old man in order to fool the boy's mother into thinking it safe.

Perseverance
by: TerrorvisionI was high on a Molotov of cocktails,
I was low on a hundred things,
I was wrong to put my money where my mouth was,
I was right about the whales and the dolphins,
Whales and dolphins, whales and dolphins, yeah.
And I don't mind preserving time at all.
I was blue about the people in the power,
I was green that's my excuse,
I was yellow when they said to fight the reds,
'Cos I knew I'd be beaten black and blue,
Black and blue, battered and bruised, yeah.
Hold the line, just give it some time then (call)...
"Cor", what I like and what I hate about perseverance,
Ooh, what I'd give and what I'd take for perseverance.
I was round and about in the area,
I was wearing my suit and tie,
I was lost in the Bermuda triangle,
It all went pear-shaped, twisted and twined,
Twisted and twined, twisted and twined, yeah.
And I don't mind preserving time at all.
Hold the line, just give it some time then (call)...
"Cor", what I like and what I hate about perseverance,
Ooh, what I'd give and what I'd take for perseverance.
I was lost on the road to nowhere,
I was a guest on a runaway train,
I was happy 'cos I knew I was innocent,
They were glad to let me take the blame,
Taking the blame, taking the blame, taking the blame,
It's always the same 'cos
I... what I like and what I hate about perseverance,
Ooh, what I'd give and what I'd take for perseverance,
I haven't time, I haven't space for perseverance,
