[mastodon2222]

Austin, TX Summer of 1985 when rolling was legal and no one outside of TX knew what it was.

[Nitroglycerinated]

I wait outside at the boys' bar and wait for them to all come out.

[poppaluv]

Damn, I just saw the album cover and had a shit-load of memories come flooding back to me. God Music and smells open the floodgates. DO they still tour? I may have seen them in N.O. I'm not sure.

We had an excellent time at Fizz, Hippo, Oceans,,, Houston was a great time.

[alex7700585]

@mustang247365 The Ocean Club was THE place to be in the '80's. Thanks for reminding me of it. I drove by the other day feeling nostalgic and wishing I could turn back time.

[nanook8181]

@alex7700585 the Ocean Club? Cool! Are you from Houston? I remember that club along with Power Tools and #'s

[jasonshaver18]

O yes the music in the Houston club scene was great in the late 80's and the early 90's. This song takes me back to Fame City!!!

[pinkypunk71]

I loved the Houston club scene in the late 80's! This so brings back so many memories! I love this band!

[737sunset]

@pinkypunk71

They were the best!! NRG, Club 6400, Numbers!!

[mrdefkon1]

Hell yeah another Houston native here. I am 39 going on 40 and saw them waaaaaay back in the mid 80's at....... FAME CITY. Yes, yes anyone remember that place ?. I also was at 6400, power tools, DV8, shark dance, numbers, club ECT, and a whole bunch of others as well. I grew up in Alief and went to all Alief schools. Graduated from Elsik. I was always a short distance from the major roads like westhiemer, richmond ave. Went to Yucatan liquor stand. Great times and well.. THE X-N-ACID

[googleboyny]

wow, this was such a big hit on clubs when it came out.

[gewglesux]

[gewglesux]

I must say that the comments about THIS song are pretty heartfelt.. i remember those times... some of the -check that the best times of my life. i would not change those times for all of the internet, ipods and whatever else we have now. i guess we would not have the I-net as we know it either..

you all understand what i mean.

[cynthiah70]

LOVE IT!!!!!!!!

[502ofthe565]

This song was one of the baddest songs on the DJ's lists in 1988. Baddest meaning BAD ASS, and the party got down with it.....

[502ofthe565]

This song was one of the baddest songs on the DJ's lists in 1988.

[royalnaz1]

im not impressed. I dont see what the big deal is about this song. Ministry work for love is a better song than this. I blame the record labels for putting out half ass music.

[JimmyJamrico]

ooo, the chimes in the back...I can't stop listening.

[girraud]

This song is a jam! I love it!

[jcmlr1970]

Love It!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cementhedpaul2008]

[joelt6502]

Always loved BOL and this track in particular....being in the military in the mid 80's, I would play this song as loud as I could!! Oh the Boys I had the pleasure to play with, even then!! Thanks BOL, you will always live on in my heart and mind!

[jimnjoer1]

OMG i love this song, takes me way back in East Texas our GAY bar , when noone was on the dance floor i would walk up to the DJ and she would ask me "what do I do?" I would say play "BOY", POOF, you could not move , poppers, people, If someone farted they would ALL blow up!! LOVE BOOK OF LOVE, LOVE 80s tunes. Joe !!

[irishblueballs]

Glad to Get You, All, Pumped Up!!! XXX TURN IT Up!!!!! LOL

[Brownsfrk]

Oh and I am from Texas born and raised, moved to Ohio. Boring here imo lol Not even sure what they turned the club into that me and my best friend used to go to every Friday and Saturday.Heather

[Brownsfrk]

Finally found this! Used to have so much fun dancing to this one in the clubs.Wore Black stir up pants, tucked into black boots, polka dot shirt of some kind with a tank under, tons of bracelets. Hair was one side over my ear and i thought I looked so cool lol Lots of black eyeliner. I was so new wave. Damn i had a blast and glad I was a teen during most of it!

[djmusicjac]

oh yes this one is darker, industrial, going in the alternative industrial new wave playlist, AWESOME

[MrAxeEdent]

Great comments, everyone. The 80s music had this sound that todays music will never have. Im glad you had some good times and great memories, DC circuitboy :)

[kilts4u2]

Takes me back to Club Rio in '88. Atlanta. Dowtown in those days rocked. Nothing like it is now. You could dance your ass off and do it again the following night. Great song.

[roxie428]

best new way music

[The096757]

heard this on sirius radio's "1st wave" station. sirious radio sucks except for this station and maybe one or two others.

[MrAxeEdent]

I saw them when they opened up for Depeche Mode in Irvine, Ca. My niece loves this music...........she even admits that some of the remakes today have nothing on the original artist.

[dccircuitboy]

@MrAxeEdent saw them in Philadelphia opening for for Depeche on the Black Celebration tour! Was lucky enough to meet them twice after that! Drank Heineken and ate M&M's with them. Great times!

[nelleedii]

@MAARRS2600

Usually what plays in my head for last call at The Eagle...!

[serekithegreat]

Best song they ever did. This was the song back in the day. They symbolized 1980's alternative music with such a powerful style.

[cymbeli]

ah memories

[redvexs11]

[TheUrieldelsol]

[tamiya1]

Go ahead girl, stay at home and play with your toys!

[TheBerdinator]

Every time I hear this song I remember hanging out at Bonham Exchange (dance club) with my club friends in San Antonio, Texas, 1986-87. Those were fun days. I still dance to this song.

[MPOUPART1]

@TheBerdinator Yes I can remember, I was stationed in Fort Hood Texas, and my buddies would go to Austin, Tx. on 6th Street, don't know which dance club, but when this song played, the dance floor was filled....

[R4biddog]

@MPOUPART1 I was station there too from 1988-91.

[irishblueballs]

I miss Jammin to this in the Clubs in Houston, Texas 1980's 1986-1989, New Wave, SAVE THE WAVE!!!!

[The096757]

@irishblueballs

they ruined some retro alternative music outlets by putting grunge and beastie boy trash in it. soon hip hop with be called "new wave."

sirious radio need at least 3 retro alternative station one for the 70s and one for the 80s and one for new wave 80s dance type music.

[andup123]

@irishblueballs Houston represent!

[ezmaralda777]

I saw them at Astroworld when I was in 8th grade lol

[737sunset]

@irishblueballs

I was there!! Great times! Club 6400 Richmond. NRG. Rhinestones, over in Beaumont.

[trisoma1]

@irishblueballs

[mavericdragon]

@irishblueballs Yeah, the bells part sounds good at Number's.



[itsmoo2k]

[Djdementedmoda]

[sopmac07]

Such a great f#@kin beat on the dance floor. Man i miss those weekends dancin at the clubs in Seattle in the 80's!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Citrohan]

The city is not the same anymore. The neighborhood has changed, the bar is now a Starbucks. But when ever I hear this song, I am instantly transported back to the late 80s. To a warm West Village night. And a brown eyed boy in a black leather jacket.

[seanr456]

@Citrohan

Isn't that a Joni Mitchell song--"They tore down the Bonham and put up a Starbucks shop"?

[duckkiger]

@Citrohan I'm sure he's thinking of those nights too. I know I am.

[MrCbutt]

@Citrohan I remember you too. I still have the jacket. Thanks for the syphillis.

[Citrohan]

@MrCbutt You're welcome. Its the gift that keeps on giving.

[NEILCCROSS1978]

this song and Scumbers go hand in hand.....all you Houstonians know what i mean!

[Relda999]

my teenage yrs!!

[minla23]

there is always a place in my heart for Book of Love, no matter how much time passes. Thanks for posting!

[dirtydirtyal]

i remember this band from YEARRRRRRRRRRRRRRS ago.
