  • Comment removed

  • Such a great song. Paul is presently a Senior Lecturer in Systematic Theology and Head of the Department of Theology and Religious Studies at King's College London. Who knew?!!

  • heard this on the radio 103.9 The Juice, awesome song!

  • DAMMIT .....I GO TO PIECES!!!

  • I really like this song. I remember seeing this video on MuchMusic back in the 80's.

  • This still beats the new shit as in Nickleback, gaga, Beiber et all....Cheers

  • 3 people went to pieces

  • This stuff shaped my life in the 80s' as a D.J. in Moncton. Wow. I love it that I can see it again.

  • It's good to see that there is some great Canadian telent inwhich Paul Janz sets a perfect example. Great Song.

  • On this song and "Flippin' to the A Side," some people are getting all caught up in these bands looking effeminate. Did these people live in the '80s? This was the way people rocked.

  • It just kicks ass, you know it's real !

  • This is so awesome I just don't know which order I should say this. Not only is this a great Canadian song, but also a great '80s song. Or, not only is this a great '80s song, but also a great Canadian song.

  • Them hopping around at 0:43 Looks kinda queer, and kinda cool at the same time. Good song. Good stage show.

  • GREAT SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!, haven't heard it in ages. THIS IS MUSIC!

  • boy the 80's was just as worse as the 70's (no worse than now though!)

  • 80's rock, Canada rocks

  • And in the category, "Where Are They Now?", check it:

  • good ol 80s rok

  • Wow. I have never seen Mike Root with hair. AMAZING! Lol

  • wow... nice find

  • Heard this song on the radio today - what a great song to CRANK UP TO 11 !!!

  • Reminds me of being in grade eleven. Hearing this on friday night videos was so cool. One of the more popular songs along with Devo, That's good. Or relax By frankie goes to hollywood. The eighties were the best time of my life.

  • The most complex and layered sound ever recorded by a Canadian artist. He is a musical genius!

  • I agree. I just discussed this song with our drummer last night and will be looking at covering it. It's a brilliant song. Great arrangements and vocals.

  • Tune shoulda been on the GTA Vice City soundtrack  : )

    BTW, get your band`s cover version up.

  • This tune needs to be covered/re-tooled big time!

  • I am very happy to see that there are people who still remember Paul Janz.

    He is my dad's cousin and they were both singers of the band Deliverance.

    And I am going down the same road.

    If you're curious, just go onto YouTube and listen to "Sweeter Than Wine".

    Natalie Janz

  • @NatalieJanz Your related to the news guy in my city... TALENTED FAMILY!

  • @NatalieJanz NO Kidding !! I have had this song in my head the past week for some reason ! I also liked Every Little Tear .

  • Actually, the guy does sing and dance a lot like a theology professor.

  • I like this song

  • i'm listening it for the first time, this is great 80s rock!

    thanx for posting

  • Wow! I didn't know so many people loved his music! Does anybody know how to get in touch with him?

  • Update he is in London now ,teaching.

  • He supervises a friend of mine who's working on his doctorate in theology.

  • The guitar player would go on the form another Canadian band that were half decent - The Odds

  • I love Odds. Heterosexual Man is sooo true.

  • That's one of the best of Canadian rock.

  • I love Canadian 80s rock music

  • Right On!!

  • I agree totally

  • Yeah This is timeless

  • Show me a band who play this music. absolutely none. todays music fucking sucks!

  • I love this song and wow does it take me back. I just came home from a challenging day at work but now I feel like dancing around the house!

  • I do remember this song very well, I was necking with my first gf at the time it was on the radio... it always brings back good mems.. and thanks for posting it :)

  • What a great song. One of the most underrated Canadian acts of the 80's.

    Must say this video did nothing to help his career.

  • Watching this video throws me for such a loop. I became acquainted with Dr. Janz when he was teaching philosophy in Langley, BC. He's a gifted academic. It's hard to imagine a professional philosopher with a background in pop music--amazing guy.

  • Are you serious? I grew up (mostly) in Langley! Would have loved to know that one of my favorite musicians was in the area! What years did he teach? Or is he still there?

  • Hey dude!  Dr. Paul Janz teaches at a University in London, England. Google him and see for yourself.

  • We lived in Lions Bay at the same time Paul did. My daughter Terra used to hang out with his daughter, and I knew his wife. It's been a long time since then. I hoped he would continue his music career, I liked his music. I hear he's a Doctor of theology now. Great song!

    C

  • This is a great song. I remember seeing it on MuchMusic in the early days.

  • I love this song

  • aWesome!!! Thanks for posting

  • why hasn't anyone posted "rocket to my heart" yet?! by far his best song....

  • Awesome song, haven't heard it in ages, thanks!

  • lol my last name is janz =], I'm japanese though XD

  • Janzu?? Nihonjin desu ka?? Honto ni??

  • My all time favorite musician of the 80's....have been looking everywhere for his music...thanks YouTube!!

    I discovered his music while touring with the Janz Team in Europe in 1985!!

  • A flashy and colorful Canadian Talent that gifted the juno categorys. A pleasurable voice with the off the wall attitude. Wish the voice was still alive a kicking out tunes today, Mr. Janz we need a come back. The itch still exists!!

  • Flying away, Leaving LA,

    Must a man, always remember?

    Paul Janz, Leaving LA

    Upload it, please!

  • That wasn't Paul Janz (solo anyway). He sang it with his brothers in the group Deliverance

  • Hi-Paul sang with Ken&Danny Janz,JackStenekes,Vern Giesbrecht(my cousin),Herb Remple in Deliverance. They were the 70's version of Delirious- in Germany.

  • Fire turns to passion,...when we dance face to face!

  • lys84:waou ce morceau énorme comm koi les canadiens on fé parti de la new wave, génial

  • Man, fair play. I thought I would just type I go to pieces on the search, hoping to find our who sung this song and there it was... Paul Janz!! Incredible! I have not heard this song for over 20 years!! Awesome and it was so funny to see the video again after such a long time! the song still rocks too! HA HA

  • More, More, More PLEASE!

  • Did you know... Paul Janz is now a professor of Philosophy in an English university?

  • Really? Are you shitting us?? Which University? Are you sure it's the same Paul Janz?? If it's true, thanks for the tid bit trivia.

  • I found this out while I was attending classes at

    Trinity Western University in Langley, BC (near Vancouver) back in 2004. He was a professor in the Theology department. Wish I would have taken the time to get to know him while I had the chance.

    He has since moved on to a position in London, England.

  • It is the same Paul Janz.  He's teaching at King's College in London, England. I LOVE his music, especially this tune. Tell me you can listen to this and not want to get up and dance.

  • I remember this video, it was pretty cool at the time!  Loved P. Janz back then.

  • i've always loved this - very fun dancy-rock. more trivia! some of you may be interested to learn that this video features the keyboardist from Glass Tiger and the guitarist from The Odds.

  • A slight correction - that is Steve Drake from The Odds on guitar, but the keyboard player is Colin Wiebe, currently playing with Randy Bachman - you can find him in vids on youtube with bachman.

    Bob(bassist in this video)

  • and I enjoyed the era of layered vocals. Clearly in that regard they borrowed from Bands like Chicago TOTO, Journey etc. Also like me they are Canadian. I didn't realize that was his brother and thanks for the upload

  • I was a big Paul Janz fan back in the 80's

  • Oh man! You totally RULE for posting this. I thought I was the last of the 12 people that remembered this tune. When it came out I was impressed by the layered vocals...like 'Leave It' by Yes. It's catchy and crafted, should have gone farther than it did, but that's the biz. For totally useless trivia, Paul is Darryl Janz's cousin if you're in Calgary and watch the CFCN news.
