  • fucking tune 

  • You ever notice how many videos of 80's themed modern songs with flashy retro titles of the artist name on black backgrounds there are on Youtube?

  • 80's Inspiration, yeah!

  • 80's Inspiration, yeah!

  • super track

  • Finally drive brings some long awaited attention to this musical genre.

  • DRIVE saved my life and gave me this awsome music to listen to

  • @xhotsizzlex ditto :D

  • this group and chromeo are the best from canada although chromeo is better then electric youth

  • ooooo, never work on a sunday

  • I love this part of youtube!

  • I love 80's remakes, faces and butts

  • I love this shit.

  • Harmless track. Don't see much point in making an 80s version of an 80's track tho. They pretty much just changed a couple synths and the bpm. Even the claps are in the original.

  • amazing song

  • DRIVE DRIVE DRIVE DRIVE YEAH

  • :D

  • fyi- dont take your girl to see this flick. she will ask how come you dont look at me like that. just playin- great film!!!!!!

  • LOVE stuff like this...and I was born in '88...reminds me of being a kid.

  • the reason so many people like the "80s" sound of this is because all the sounds they use are the exact samples from the 1985 original from Clio. this is not a cover. this is some desperate wannabes ripping off an original creation to seem nostalgic.

  • @nmh881 you are 100% wrong! Of course this is a cover of the original by Clio but it does not sample the original it is all new synths and sounds, it's a cover! Do your research or at least listen closer before making silly false claims. And Electric Youth has great original songs of their own like 'Right Back to You' and 'Fade Away' not to mention their hit with College from the Drive film, so clearly they have no trouble making nostalgic music of their own, don't be foolish lol.

  • @jaime272727 yes the bass is new and they added some guitar. the synth keys are however the original pushed from their original stereo phasing format into a mono crammed sound. i took some time and listened to the songs you linked and yes they do have a nostalgic feel to their originals. i stand corrected. im just tired of all the sampling of older songs passed off as an artist's "original" song. neon indian anyone???

  • @nmh881 I appreciate your open mind to listen to their other stuff but you are still 100% wrong about the synths. I agree they sound similar to the original but I can assure it's all new reproduced synths not samples. The main synth sound they even use in another song "Fade Away"! and some of the other synth stuff is not even analogue it's VSTs.

  • pure tune ! love it

  • I love this so much

  • I typed in teflon and found this ?! SCORE !

  • @ThePassword1001 Golly, lucky you!

  • I absolutely LOVE the distinctive sound of 80's Electronic synths and Smooth female vocals. It fills me with so much joy and excitement when I hear NEW songs like this what were made in this Century! ^_^ Retro 4 Ever!

  • 80's wecome back !

  • Love it. This song is on the Valerie and friends CD, go buy it !

  • HOT HOT

    ;D

  • the Clio version is good but they sped the song up and added so much layering with this version. It still sounds like a kool and the gang bassline but the original did too. nicely done.

  • the electric feel of the track reminds me of my childhood, love it :)

  • this group needs more publicity! theyre amazing!

  • I bought their EP because of this track:) took me a while to find out its actually on Amazon and not just iTunes though (not a big apple user).

  • too much toilet humour = Electric Youth - Faeces

  • @ForeignAidd Thanks for ruining the chorus for me :(

  • Fucking AWESOME cover of an Italo classic.

  • LOVE IT! <3 Great retro vibe!

  • Miami Vice Forever!

  • @illcmentifulickme123

    Agree with U pal !!!

  • drive

  • Movies. Dance. Stuff. Retro. Hipster. Kickflip. Hair Gel.

  • Feels like I'm playing Vice City.

  • Whoah! Totally blown away by this, i love the 80's dance sound! x

  • I cannot find anything about that group! I only know from Your comments it's from Canada. I think it's really cool, wanna know more!

  • middle school sweethearts, not high school :)

  • I like this version as much as the Clio one - it's good to listen to both and hear the increased tempo in this one.

  • I 've been so crazy about 80ies Pop the last year that i decided to make my own 80ies style Pop song and give it for free. I am calling all the 80ies freaks to musically connect with me with:

    "I like to treat you bad " by ARTD

  • I love it! this has been a real obsession since September !!!!!

  • Heyy this song made me think michael jackson was still black, run dmc was still playn, and i could of swore i was wearing a gold chain with a ninja turtles shirt?

  • @balletshoesofficial There is Starlighter -Jupiter that is near ;)

  • @yoshi167943 Thank you :)

  • Ahhh nice chilled 80s music. Used to love music like tthis when I was a kid back in the 80s. Enjoy real music. Music with passion

  • glassminimalist.. i know what you mean... Amen. i cant find anyone in my area that likes this kind of music.... i still blast it when i drive around... im not an 80's child.. but man o man. it must of been nice

  • completely agree!

  • is this by debbie gibson isn't it???

  • @burberryicecreamtop this is a cover by toronto duo electric youth of a classic italo disco song by cleo. this is from like 2008 and the original is from 1986.

  • @SebiSthlm så jävla bra. Kommer ihåg orginalet, men denna slår nog allt den........Sebisthlm min nya musikletartjänst........lite drygt bara att han bor i AEKÅ-land ;)

  • @Bookaswede haha, tackar! kolla gärna in min blogg också på tracasseur(punkt)com

  • Original version of Clio Faces,that's a disco italo

  • @SebiSthlm CLIO

  • Do you also get the same warm 80's feeling that I do when you hear this?

    Ahhhhh It makes me happy- bring the 80's BACK!!!

  • love synthpop!!

  • Sounds like Madonna's Holiday

  • This is just amazing! 100% 80s feeling!

  • the arrival of th 80's is imminent!! wooww!!

  • CLIO FACES ITALO DISCO!!!! but very nice remake!!! the album valerie and friends is wonderful

  • I love this track,

    Got it from the Valerie and Friends album (:

  • the original version is better- italo forever. CLEO- FACES - ITALO DISCO 1986 ORIGINAL PRESSING.

  • @bluepuppydan I disagree. The original is good but this is incredible.

  • @andrewmusick88 - Nah, the original is far better because of the pace of the song and this just sounds like it has too much going on. And the singing was better in the first. Still all right though.

  • Does anyone have the lyrics to this song?

  • totally agree... my friends are all simple, generic typical music is all they can understand. we live in a sad time for music.

  • her singing is boring

  • way overproduced

  • this beat makes you move your body automatically. awesome.

  • bring back the 80s!!

  • @bimbyris123 Dude I wish I could like this several times. If I could live in another decade than today I would go to the 80's in a heartbeat!

  • @bimbyris123 Every town needs a dance club with such music because music is not fashion although they promote it as if it is. a place where you dance with favorites and you learn new music.

  • @bimbyris123 if you like 80's check out our page , we only got two of our 80's songs from our ep up but youll enjoy them

  • 2:50 - 3:07 is amazing

  • Sounds like Madonna's Dress You Up1

  • Good stuff...

  • Awesome Tune!!!!

  • gooooood!!!!!!! very!

  • this cover is sooo good...viva the 80s

  • this cover is sooo good...viva the 80's

  • 80`s the best

  • Don't care if it"s a remake, a redub, a remix, or a rerun. Listen and enjoy. Why not????

  • AWESOME SONG. CONGRATS!!!!

  • WOW !! What a version !! Thank you !!

  • I like this song. great melody

  • i see the Clio version is in the related vids section. I didnt know this was a cover either! See? You learn something new every day :)

  • I was disappointed when I found out this was a cover.

  • umm ya so this is cool and all but it's a cover. The original is by italo disco artist "Clio". Go check it out.

  • so is Italo Disco Artist - Clio better?

  • @Auraeuz, ya totally better. this version is really good too but they didn't even really change much when they covered it. it's almost the same song. Clio also has a song called "eyes" that is totally rad. there's a video for it on here.

  • I can't say is better, is just.. different. Electro and Italo Disco have much in common, i like both of them.

  • y isnt this on itunes

  • i tack back my comment i found it lol

  • Check under "Valerie and Friends" compilation. I think they might have it

  • hell yah this music should b played everywere..

  • mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm(L)

  • Very nice tune, just add to my playlist ;) 5/5

  • ooh man wicked song :D this is the kind of music that should play everywhere!!

  • awesome song! this is the souunds! electric 80'szzz!

  • the first 44 sec. are very cool...

  • I wish that my friends appreciated music like this...see, this is the kind of stuff you should dance to. It has a nice build to it, and feels complete. All my friends just want some generic crap that is basic, with no build or good qualities to it other than the fact that there's either four-on-the-floor or something else that is regular and solid. Sigh...

  • I totally agree -

  • Ha! You're not alone :)

  • @glassminimalist man, you have the same condition as me!

  • @glassminimalist my thoughts exactly!!

  • @glassminimalist i hear that. can't stand oontz oontz dance music, it's so boring.

  • @glassminimalist totally agree... my friends are all simple, generic typical music is all they can understand. we live in a sad time for music.

  • @glassminimalist

    wow, I love this... what other groups do you like that have a similiar sound to this.

  • @dothedamnthang2 Cut Copy, Grum, Lifelike (and his remixes, although he DOES have a lot of variety in his material), Stardust, Miami Horror, Bag Raiders, Parallels, and Knightlife. Let me know if any of this works for you!

  • @glassminimalist

    thanx buddy :D,

    I hadn't of the Parallels or Grum yet! im going to enjoy those.

    bag raiders, lifelike, knightlife, and Miami horror have been some of my favorites for a while now. ( tho i'm sure they have tunes i'm still searching for )

  • @glassminimalist i feel the same way, you put it in perfect words!

  • @glassminimalist word!!

  • @glassminimalist You forgot to mention its not "gangsta" enough! Good on ya, be original---don't follow the herd

  • @glassminimalist same here

  • @glassminimalist duude i totaly hear you i get made fun of by people for listeing to tesla boy college anoraak and loose shus i just dont fucking get it this music is amazing it brings me to another place i feel a natural high when i play this shit

  • @familydude51 listen m8, you don't have to be ashamed for listening to this music, in fact those guys that are making laugh to you are lame pussies, just ignore them and leave them in their sheep world ;-)
