  • Ah, the 80s - what a time!

  • Beautiful quality. Incredible song. Thanks so much for positing. We saw Kid & the Coconuts in Vegas about 7 yrs ago.

  • The Kid and his Coconuts are one of the funnest bands out there. What a snarky song. Love it!

  • Okay, I'm sure I'll get blasted, but I wanna see Usher do this song.

  • Is that Mario Van Peebles?

  • @auctionguyinmo i think its Prince

  • The song is great! (no one can deny that!) But the hair on the armpit of the ladies is so........

  • @MrJojoalla well, coconuts without hair?!... ;)

  • if you were good on the dance floor in the 80s you'd get some "ass"... shakin to this song!

  • love the hairy armpits..

  • Back when videos were fun & truly entertaining! Great style! & didn't take themselves so seriously, even though they were really great!

  • If I had a dime for every frame in this video, I could buy a tube of Pringles.

  • 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.

  • Bring back female underarm hair, is what I say.

  • well noted about the hairy armpits, i think they were just of that era. they probably shave there now

  • I remember always seeing this on my local video station in '84. Loved it then, love it more now.

  • what´s the deal with the hairy armpits???

  • dapat ba lahat ng second voice ay may buhok sa kilikili????

  • The middle coconut was is wife at the time.

  • Each frame is pretty sharp but there aren't enough of them per second for smooth motion

  • Ahhhh the 80's when we had music and Miami Vice......

  • @miamimann1 Well said. Now, go grab your white blazer and hit the streets!

  • Una delle cose più belle degli anni 80!

  • FABULOUs.....HOW TO BE SEXY AND TALENTED WITHOUT BEING CHEAP!!!

  • them coconuts look tasty sweet.

  • the bass guitar sounds good

  • love it love it love it... what a rythm!!! irresistible

  • 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.

  • Nice, Very nice

  • OASIS of LOVE

  • I can't get this JAM out of my head, and it's difficult to sit still during such an awesome tune.

  • I love it!!!! It reminded the against all odds and Miss Teen USA 1989 evening gowns music in 20s year-ago.

  • 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.

  • That's the best song/production ever. It just doesn't get any better.

    Man, I would have loved to see them live...

  • those girls are rocking the armpit hair

  • Avec les poils sous les bras des filles! enorme....

  • THIS VID IS THE COOLEST THING I HAVE SEEN SINCE I DONT KNOW WHEN

  • @uranorexic that was the hair style at the time (1984)

  • one of my favourite dancer.... great song dear Kid Creole! I'm never tired to see you move

  • 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.

  • A true classic from a class act!

  • Comment removed

  • FINALLY I FOUND THE TITTLE SONG,...!

  • yes hairy armpit ladies..

  • Nice2.Classic.

    

  • what a hairy armhole womens

    !!!!

  • Gotta love the armpit hair on the Coconuts!!!

  • in reality he is paying tribute to his idol cab calloway , and the same they did in the movie "the mask" with jim carrey...

  • i wanna see showgirls (women in general really) nowadays with unshaven armpits, it's so sexy!!

  • @intriguemyerotic i agree

  • Excellent!

  • Who are the two cretins who gave this a thumbs down?

  • @edwardjames50 They must be sick losers!!!

  • I saw the movie "Against All Odds" (1984) when I was stationed in Korea and this song was played in the movie. James Woods, Alex Karras starred.

  • Not sure about "DVD quality". It's very choppy.

  • The Coconuts WORKED that choreography!

  • 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.

  • this guy was so jazzy! He reminds me of Cab Calloway and Morris Day

  • i love this song

  • Why r these Bitches So hairy

  • 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 !!!!!!!!!!!

  • Kid Creole and The Coconuts! Love it!

  • BONITA LA CANCION MI MAMA CURIOSA

  • I miss the 80s!

  • LOVE this song and video! LOVE IT!  Dude is so funky, and those hairy coconuts got my juices flowing as a kid. Classic, and ahead of its time.

  • I just saw Against All Odds again on cable.

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

  • @whh01

    It's staggering how completely clueless that statement is...

  • those armpit!

  • Still a hot song after all this time! But those ladies were all too real! Note the armpit hair. Yes, finally some real women!

  • what a runway pattern, yeah?? the song compensated for the bad sight!!! LMAO

  • Love the song but I can't get past the pit hair.  At least it's trimmed in a nice little runway pattern

  • 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!!!!!

  • @sylart57 ~ I think the girls were chosen simply because they look SO much alike!
