I have all the Lynx hits like this on 12" vinyl; I should probably go ahead and digitize them. Lynx still sounds great to me even though I live a continent away and am 47 years old!
I so agree with what you said smithdvr! Loved this and all there other hits.This one sticks in my mind,though i loved thier little known and played hit Throw away the key! Great memories from 1981!! Lovely post! Benja :-)
OMG! I can't believe I've found this clip. I was 15 when I had it on a mix tape - it was good then and it's still as good I think. Now I only have to find Junior's Mama Used to Say...
As i was born 10 years after this released i first saw this video on a episode of TOTP2 which was dedicated to Disco from the 70s and 80s. It's just a simply amazing song.

The white guy on the piano wrote a great deal of the best Linx music actually. Then went off and used the money to buy a narrow guage railway in North Wales!!!
i love this song. love the vocals and jamaican steel drum melodys in the background. shame other people my age dont appreciate decent music like this. more interested in there 50 cents and leona lewis.
This is really a great song ! Why is this never shown on the oldies video channels in the UK ? I know its a bit dated but its just as good as other British vids from the same time period.
Oh Maaaaan! This song is so where it was at! What happened to those days? Oh yeah, we somehow got landed with the likes of Britney Spears! What the F***!
wonderful..!!!...i saw those guys at hammersmith odeon...we all thought it was mr. grant coming down the stage stairs singing..''bud-dee-doo-da-da etc''...turned out to be junior giscombe..!!!!..they were lying..!!!!!:)
Much thanks for posting this. I remember seeing it on TOTPS when it came out. Never EVER thought I would see it again!! Nice one. Long live brit funk!
very nice lost track, cheers you really up ,fun! thx!
