[SirSpence12]

[Poppypoo1]

For an 80's video it dates really well. Wicked song!

[lecrapauddejerri9]

Belter.

[78RustyNail]

u bunch of miserable old cunts this is great

[Chilli0912]

Just listened to it a second time and I'm starting to get into it now. Would be nice to hear Terry Hall sing it.

[Chilli0912]

I've never heard that one before and not sure I want to hear it again.

[thegaytraitor]

Master piece, and Terry Hall is the ultimate traitor - they are NOTHING without Dammers and have got the cheek to go around playing his songs....

[virtual30]

Goshhhhhhhhhh! I miss my youth again...I was 13 years old :(

Back then Music Box form Sky Channel was my MTV in The Netherlands

[hibtw1]

[tom51]

Well, now they're nothing without Jerry Dammers.

That's the second generation of the Special AKA. Made one album, "In the Studio". Only Jerry and Brad from the original line up of The Specials, plus of course Dick Cuthell on trumpet.

[SouthCentralVARudie]

Teeth are for pussys

[willcarter100]

[Kingsen]

I quoeted terminator93i.

Anyway he is 20 and living in the UK. I guess we will never find out.

[willcarter100]

who is the woman in the video Is she a star now or maybe working in a school canteen somewhere ??

I wondered when the video first came out if she was a star then...but I am sure someone knows

[Bradius123]

I always remember trying to sing it at school

.....fucking impossible :)

[Malocosa]

I saw recent photos of Jerry Dammers and he closely resembles Shane MacGowan

[PoireauMan68]

@Malocosa in fact, they are brothers...and visit the same dentist regularly...

[Rinopharingo]

How can a song sound so great ?

How can a guy be so talented AND funny ?

No doubt Jerry Dammers is a motherfuckin' entertainer and fine artist... no need for teeth believe me !

[nicholas0325]

that's not really dammers voice, is it? did he sing this with that bodysnatches chick, or is it just her?

[defdeelr]

Yes, that is Jerry singing. Rhoda Dakar isn't singing on this track.

[mrofficial8]

That was awesome, really enjoyed it!

[Twilightteasing]

OMG I had this record, thought i was the only person in the world who knew it, I no longer feel unique, thanks for that x

[nikjak2]

another classic 2 tone tune

[christopherpainter]

Thomas Dolby's doing a great cover of this on tour at the moment.

[terminator93i]

The lady in the video is now married with three kids - twins (boy and girl) aged 13 and a girl aged 19. I should know, I'm her husband

[eltotoX]

She is HOT.

[mrofficial8]

[lizilizi1]

Hmmmm...your profile lists you as being 20.

[hremmelt]

Can anyone tell me.... Is this a young Jools Holland??? I always thought it was him.

[radam238]

This, I believe, is Jerry Dammers.

[alfa1750s2]

Jerry Dammers no doubt about that one.

[pieuw123]

So Nice to see this back,For me a sentimental Journey and I keep singing it over and over in my head

[jeand2001]

Just Great to see this one on here Wow!

[numberstation]

Blimey,bought this years ago and never thought I'd hear it again,superb.Thanks!

[jimmer21]

[kb104]

fantastic. I only saw this once when it was released and always hoped to see it again.Those Eddie Murphy clones are great dancers.

[jacktripper111]

[gloomtown]

The girl would have chosen him, if he had teeth.

[Carpet32]

He's got a great voice.

[gdfeb1082]

The lady in this video is very beautiful.

[rudeskaboyuk]

jerry dammers the main man from the specials tries his hand at singing after the break up of the group. a strangley catchy and enjoyable song but will annoyingly stick in your head all day !
