a song for any age in time. when it came out i was a freshwoman in high school. i didnt register itz meaning then. just thought it was lovely to dance to. my nievity turned into lesbianism and this song turned from pure dance to an anthem for the LGBT. wow how it still has that original fire through tomorrow.
I was a club DJ in the 80's. I have the bootlegged version of this, mixed in with Thriller you can have them on the floor for as long as you wanted lol....Truly an iconic song.
The video appears to me as a modification of the original "banned video", along with audio track not being the "album version" - appears to me to be the "New York Mix", an early "extended remix". The "original banned video" was for the album version, not the New York Mix.
I wanna sock it to it! Love this song - one of the best - great to make love to - 41 y/o Male stuck here in Burton Michigan USA. Partied hard to this song at MSU :)
vorrei scaricare la stessa identica versione.. ma su emule non c'è... esiste per caso un programma dove puoi scaricarla direttamente da qui su youtube... ? :(
@sithlord1626 The guy with the 'tach from the band who can't stop smiling is the best. Looks like the guitarist from the Scorpions, Rudolf Schenker ;-)
REMINDS ME OF CORPUS CHRISTI IN THE 80'S A CLUB CALLED "GRAFFITE'S , THEY PLAYED THIS AND EVERYBODY-I MEAN "EVERYBODY" GOT UP ON THE DANCE FLOOR AND DANCED THEIR ASS OFF!!!!! WAY COOL MEMORIES!!THANX!
@sithlord1626 - Sarah Palin "disliked" it cuz she thought "Frankie Goes to Hollywood" was the movie "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington" but she got it mixed up. LOL
@JayIce CoulD some people are so prudish ,,if he was thin and naked ,would it have been banned ?...i think whoever censored it might have had a weight issue more than a nudity issue ,,i wonder ,,i,d love to know :P
@ursulalawless - from my understanding, it was "gay content" specifically the gay leather sub-culture and the so called innuendo with the tiger on stage that got it banned, lol. They let just about anything by these days, censorship is just plain wrong.
misses the 80's...born in the 90's...deal with it

@ursulalawless In the US, any kinda nudity would've gotten it banned, or at least censored. In the UK, I'm not so sure.
I dunno, the video is too dark to really see what exactly is going on.
