I was obsessed with this song in 1982. I would listen to it over and over. I'd never heard any song like it - before or since. I still have their record album, and a ticket stub for a concert in 1984 @ Radford University, $7.50.
I remember watching this video for the first time on MTV!! I was in High School, Class of 85! Just doesn't seem that long ago! KDON here in Salinas,CA played this song as a new entry! Wow, so much has changed!
Funny, when I saw them live back in the day, Richard Butler reminded me so much of a young Bowie. Here, he looks so much like a young John Lydon (who's had better orthodontic work).
This may have been the song that created my addiction to New Wave/Alt music back in my youth. Still one of the most incredible songs I have ever heard inmy life!
sorry kornboy korns one of my favorite groups too, but they were nowhere close to touching the psychedelic furs on this song, i actually didnt even like korns version. no one sings this better than richard butler does
You are some serious demented young white boys,ya spend more time talking about who's gay then ya do about the music. But then you have no talents,so what else do closet racist,sexist and misfits like you assblankets do!
To and idiot freedom of speech is meaningless cuz ya never have anything worth saying or hearing. As to fucking somebodySAVE it for those men who use your boy toy ass,SHITNEY!
HA HA SHITNEY??? Is that how they teach you retarded people where you live to talk? You sound like a jackass!! Ohhh Wait you are! WAnna BE!!! go blow eminem with your gangsta talk!! HA HA HA Your a fool!
Whats wrong ya little turd,is my language to scarey for your buttplug ass,ya screaming Get1Hahahahaah ya I can imagine being the tiny assblanket you are that words might really frighten your silly childlike ass. Move on shiitney,don't fuck with the big boys!
HA HA HA HA You are fucken retarded!!! What the hell are you saying?? remember i dont speak JACKASS!! and dont fuck with the big boys?? please what are you a 33 yr old cocksucker with a 4 yr old mind! ha ha dont make me laugh again with your horrible threats! HA HA HA YOu fucken COWARD!! SHITNEY ASS FOOL!! HA HA U make me laugh! JACKASS! WHAT? WHAT?
OK lets take it real slooooooooooow KORNHOLA BUTTBOY. Now again,stop tryna pick up men on the internet. Know I'm not one of those men you were told to call daddy. Now go back to being the silly mindless GET alias TURDELLO that we see to much of.
OK! Im confused with your JACKASS! What fucken race are you? ARE YOU WHITE: SONG YOUR COMMENTING ON IS A GROUP OF WHITE ONLY MUSICIANS?MEXICAN: YOUR GAY PROFILE SAYS LASOMBRA? WHICH IS GAY ANYWAYS! OR ARE YOU BLACK: SPEAKING STREET EBONICS THAT NO ONE CAN FUCKEN UNDERSTAND? SO WHICH ONE IS IT JACKASS? OR ARE YOU A STUPID ALIEN FROM THE PLANET JACKASS! ANYWAYS YOU NEED SOME PROFESSIONALHELP BADLY!! KEEP BRINGING YOUR RETADED COMMENTS AND ILL KEEP PUTING YOUR EBONIC ASS IN PLACE! HA HA FUCK YOU!
"The 80s are back" - c'mon man get real. We can't duplicate what been done. Music has blew dog for ten years + now. This video sounds great, but what was that at the end? BTW as much as I LOVE this cut it should have had a better video!!!
This song and this video brings back ton's of memories. This video actually introduced me to "alternative" genre! So, here's to you Richard Butler and Psych Furs, THANK YOU!
I fucking WORSHIP Richard Butler!!! I remember when I first heard this AMAZING song back in the '80's and within a month I went to my see The Furs in concert!!! MIND-BLOWING sound and a MIND-BLOWING frontman to boot!!! What a fucking HOT/SEXY BEAST he was!!! I was EXPOSED to Richard Butler & The Furs 1/2 year before I EVEN knew who Bauhaus & Peter Murphy were ( and I'm like that band's MAIN FREAK!!! ) Maybe I should change my "name" to Richard Butler "freak" instead!!! I don't know...
Where the 80's were color, the following decades have been black and white. It was hedonistic, voyeuristic, sexy, fun and larger than life. The sex, the drugs, the rock n' roll. From the Pretenders to Poison, the whole decade was about letting your personal style soar. Punk rock, glam rock, new wave. Substance does not get you hard. Style does. lol
I would have to say that the 80's fashions were the worst in all fashion history. All those valley girl and Madonna boy toy clothes for women and Miami Vice linen jackets with five o'clock shadows for men. Blech!
I MISS THE 80S! Stoners wearing skin tight levis anc concert shirts, new wave wannabes, preps sporting 3 shirts a time, nerds, jocks, high school keg parties, big hair, bad clothes, good times...... When I die, I'm not going to heaven, I'm going back to the 80s!!!!!! Who's with me?!!!!!!!
I'm there with you! 80's must be better than any heaven our "loving" God can produce. BTW, a loving God would not torture his children so. Would you do it to your children?
Oh my God I think you just gave me a hernia, there, bunnEgirl. Now I'm gonna bleed out and expire here in front of Richard Butler's harem pants and scraggly-looking pseudo-mullet. Help me, Letterman, help me!
The 80's was a bridge between the 70's and the 2000' ,unfortunately it was also an homage to the self.We cant say that the music from this era was full of shit,and we cant say that it was all good.
Mesmerizing music (and imagery) and metaphor-invoking lyrics with meaningful social commentary besides; Who could ask for more? It's just amazing how much these blokes could accomplish with a xzylophone.

Where the 80's were color, the following decades have been black and white. It was hedonistic, voyeuristic, sexy, fun and larger than life. The sex, the drugs, the rock n' roll. From the Pretenders to Poison, the whole decade was about letting your personal style soar. Punk rock, glam rock, new wave. Substance does not get you hard. Style does. lol
