@35eselmeise

jaaa, du hast recht, diese version ist unglaublich gut... das eerste mal wenn ich fgth kennengelernt hab, war es am 31.12.1984 .... um 16:00 .... jemand hat im radio nur das gesagt: "meine damen und herren: heute hab ich fuer sie etwas spezielles.... ich sag gar nicht wer ist das... bitte einach anhoeren...." und vom radio hab ich diese fantastische 17 o. 18 minuten "welcome to the pleassuredome" das erste mal kennengelernt.... .... .... und damals hab ich es als etwas unglaub-

[thomascrown997]

Why you drive that slowly? This is not exactly a German Autobahn, is it? Anyway, great music, fantastic weather, beautiful landscape. Thanks for uploading.

[Krazyjesus]

Are you driving on the correct side of the road? It looks like an american highway.

[alanheath]

@Krazyjesus This is Palestine. But they drive on the right there - the same as they do in America!

[Krazyjesus]

@alanheath oh...

[palomino73]

I don't know how often I have come back to this video and it still would get me dancing in front of my desk - yeeehaaa !!!!

I just decided to buy this on Amazon as an mp3 at first; should I then find out that the version title matches this one, I will also get me the CD since my turntable is broken =( !

@DepressedEnglishChap :

I'd also like to thank you sharing your knowledge about this case, and of course you're right in stating their splitting is a shame and a big one it is !

[alanheath]

@palomino73 That is really great. Getting messages like this makes me feel so good!!!

[10CPhil]

Thank you!! Been looking for this for years!! Brilliant remix & I love the video you have created - at times it reminds me of the kind of scenery I saw on Lake Nasser en-route to Abu Simbel - many thanks once again!

[almuzza]

Playin' is'nt Pay'in so work is wht I'm Say'in... I'm worki'n for THE WORLD GO ROUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[svetit10]

ЕХАТЬ,ЕХАТЬ,ЕХАТЬ,ДО БЕСКОНЕЧНОСТИИИИИИИИИИИИИИ,И ПУСТЬ УНОСИТ МЕНЯ ДОРОГА.

[alanheath]

@svetit10 У меня есть много фильмов с этой идеей!!!!!!!!!!!

[svetit10]

а где можно глянуть?

[alanheath]

@svetit10 Вы можете глянуть мои фильмы здесь, на YouTube!

[rueganer70]

dzenkuje ;)

[alanheath]

@rueganer70 Proszę bardzo!

[spinnyse]

That is a great drive! Drove there myself last february. Watched the sun go down beneath Masada. The mix is superb, people don´t make productions like this anymore. Frankie RIP.

[alanheath]

Yes, I agree. I would love to cycle it - but have to do it in the winter because it is going to be too hot in the summer! Next time we will have to visit Masada!

[BillyJay1970]

gr8 tune and incredible video footage that compliment each other so well :)

[alanheath]

It does work rather well - I think the idea for the music came after I filmed it though!

[Pawel66kr]

super :) chyba skoczę po jakąś płytę FGTH żeby słuchac w samochodzie.

[alanheath]

Bardzo dobry pomysl!!

[Przemolugia4]

lata 80.fgth.nowatorskie brzmienie.pamietacie okladke wttpd.nie bylo nic lepszego od fgth i nie bedzie.

[alanheath]

Też tak myślę!

[DepressedEnglishChap]

Frankie split in '87, immediately after Holly being allegedly assaulted by bass player Mark O'Toole, in the minutes before their final public appearance, and the announcement by Holly followed soon after.

There are a number of interlocking reasons why Holly called quits. Apathy to work on new material from the rest of the band, fraudulent royalty payments from ZTT, interference over new material, clash of styles, sexual preferences, and personalities within the band etc

Great shame.

[alanheath]

@DepressedEnglishChap Very interesting comment. Thanks for shedding light on this!

[NHgirl96]

The 80's was a band haven, record companies were falling over new and interesting talent, now they cookie cut bands and singers and don't care as long as it sells to the public...

[alanheath]

I also think it all sounds the same today but is this not because of how old we are. I remember people saying it all sounded the same in the 1980s!

[NHgirl96]

I know every generation has its inference of the next having bad or whatever music, but when you read the words or heard the music it was happy had good lyrics and had purpose, a lot of songs today are just depressing. Don't get me wrong there are bands i like like the plain white T's stick out a bit, Michael Buble is vert talented.... just have to search it out i guess, be a little picky :)

[KrautKrazy]

Why does FGTH split ?Can`t remember.

[NHgirl96]

@KrautKrazy Hey! noticed your comment. I believe they split because Holly was done with his career for a while. I hear a rumor they are getting back and recording so maybe if this is true we can listen to the radio again LOL

[rubbercoatedsteel]

i hope holly does a new video for this since he's back now....besides he needs to go on tour one more time before he becomes a legend or whatever is the proper title

[Xenus98]

Great Song ! This is a very best of FGTH ! ! ! What a great group ! I will never forget them ! Thanks you for sharing, fabien from Monaco.

[saiyaniam]

No, its just your not looking hard enough. You wont hear very good music on the radio or tv.

[pluis1111]

In the 80´s people were driven by passion and belief. Now they are driven bij money. That´s the dif.

[cloverfield911]

Why is music now in the 21st century so crap. Yet in the 80s there was a total ocean of talent.

[masons11]

Always been my favorite Frankie Mix. Love it

[solarmumu]

heeii,

i loooove this remix but witch one is it,been really trying to find it...

can you help me?

thank you !!

[alanheath]

I don't know what else it is called other than what I wrote above!

[MarkNobes]

It's the "Turn Of The Knife" mix and is available on the "12 Inches" album.

[simonjohnpalmer]

It is the 'Turn of the Knife Mix from 2001 or... so it says at the beginning of the video...

[palomino1973]

Thank you, alanheath, a many thousand times !!!

After almost 25 years I've finally found this song in exactly this version ...!

When I was a little boy I had this on a CBS sampler-tape and used to play this song back and forth over and over again !

Somehow I lost this tape and never managed to get to know, how this special version was named..., until today !!!

Thank you again for uploading this hot remix,

palomino

[alanheath]

Thanks for your nice comment ... was it really 25 years ago !!!

[palomino1973]

Yes, I must have been around ten years old at that time and since I count 35 summers today, it must have been that long ago ! Perhaps +/- 2 or 3 years, but not more...!

Again, I really thank you so much or this upload; to me this is by far the best version of a song that's already breathtaking as such !!!

[alanheath]

I have got one or two other Frankie goes to Hollywood 'videos' on this site also which may be of interest!!

I think the music rather fits this video but as the person who made it I would say that!
