Poster below says middle Coconut was Kid Creole's wife ("Kid Creole" is actually August Darnell). Nope! Right-hand Coconut, Adriana Kaegi, was his wife at the time and last I heard, still in charge of choreography for the latest trio of Coconuts.
Kid Creole and the Coconuts is an American musical group created and led by August Darnell. Its music incorporates a variety of styles and influences, in particular "American and Latin American, South American, Caribbean, Trinidadian, Calloway"[1] and conceptually inspired by the big band era. The Coconuts are a glamorous trio of female backing vocalists whose lineup has changed throughout the years. 14 albums to their credit.
Grande Kid Creole y las Coconuts y gracias a gurachn por subir el video de calidad,volví a revivir grandes tiempos, lastima que ya no se vean artistas como estos.
To those of you wondering about the armpit hair, that actually didn't used to be that uncommon. I went to highschool and college with many girls that didn't shave legs or armpits. It is only in the last decade that body hair became taboo. I'm sure it has something to do with the male obsession with prepubescent girls that is now dictating that women wax and lazer their bodies until they are unnaturally hairless.
I see a hint of Prince also, be I agree with all this guy was bad pre Morris Day and Cab, performers now suck...this is so relaxing( MELO) brings back memories.
I was going to write a well thought out and compelling comment making sure I did my best not to offend anyone or thier chosen lifestyle, I also wanted to stress my understanding of a womans right to look and act however she chooses but............ BLLLEEEAARRRK !!!!!!!!!!!
Ooooooohhhh, very cool to see this again, (the whole thing in quality vid), This guy is hilariously cool!!! I see some pre-Morris Day in there too, lol!! And The Coconuts are hot, (the middle one is my fav! ;) ) I still love this song and the video! Aaaaaahhhh, bring back the days of real musicians and performers! We need some quality in this crappy world again!!! Thanx for posting this...YOU ROCK!!!!!

Seeing this video again reminds me that while Kid Creole is talented, this may be the worst song & video of all time.
