[JammyDodgerrrrrr]

Classic Awsome Tune:D

[firepower158]

I first heard about this group in late 1982. Whatever happened to them? Was there a followup to " Pelican West "? This song " Fantastic Day ", along with " Love + One " would wipe the floor with today's pathetic excuses for contemporary songs.

[TheBoggartsbreakfast]

nick heward...totally adorable.

[CHBinAsheville]

The only way to get to the office with a smile on my face still. Great for top down full moon A1A drives too.

[IlovePOTO3]

Nick Heyward is so cute! As in the English cute, I think Americans use it to say someone is attractive, but I mean it in the sense that he is sweet. Like a puppy

[ngawa2000]

One of the best pop songs of all time. A perfect anti-depressant.

[macbutty1]

fantastic song

[Emmamoo]

Nick Heyward.... He's aged well. Tasty bit of stuff!

[KirstineEibyeElgaard]

Queer as Folk brought me here. I FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG!

[gianca60]

Haircut 100 looked like The Monkees in this vid.

[colindaleradiosutch]

YER, I DONT REALLY KNOW ? CANT MAKE ME MIND UP...

[m616366]

Well its about that time of year when I pull my Haircut CD's and albums and listen to them every day until the end of August.

[stevedude16sb2]

Such a feel good song! I'm not a pop fan but this is definitely in my top songs list!

[rudeydudey05]

By far my fav band when i was in primary school, i think i was obsessed, my older sisters used to tease me about it as they where Adam and the Ants fans lol, Nick Heyward used to like wearing the white Cricket Jumpers, you know the ones with the big V-Neck. i had a phase where all i wore was white knitted V-Neck cricket jumpers, and yes, i tried to copy the hair styles too, lol its really bad when i think back. Soo Embarasing, now that i'm older, ok alot older, i can appreciate the music more.

[annasgroove]

Hehe this so reminds me of my late teens. What a blast from the past. Great band - clever, tight music. Sax always used to blow me away.

[EmilyChesterton]

[SamCrawshaw]

Anybody know where you can get hold Haircut 100's 1978 punk version of this song as featured on Adam & Joe? watch?v=LxnoZ3MlXcA

[TheIceman1980]

great track, always makes me happy, sounds great on sunny days :)

[raydeen2k]

I <3 HC100. I was 13 when this song came out and it takes me back every time. Which is nice when you're 41 and hate your life.

[Marigen1971]

@raydeen2k Why do you hate life? Maybe you feel like m,e that the future wasnt as I imagined it back in the 80's....

[raydeen2k]

@Marigen1971 The 80's was the future, thus the dislike for what I have now. Actually, I don't hate my life. I just wish I could do it all over again. But, that's everybody's story.

[Marigen1971]

@raydeen2k I know what you mean :o)

The 80's where a time for me when I thought I knew what I wanted.

[dietschcr]

Every guitar player should hold their guitar that high! All these HC100 songs take me back to those carefree high school days.

[EmilyChesterton]

My mum is the woman with the permed kate bush hair :D

[Glat64]

@EmilyChesterton Did she recover ok from the fall at the end?

[iw32]

@EmilyChesterton Is she the one pushing the guy into the water?

[tamerity]

still one of my favorite bands... ever!!!

[DaveBTHunt]

Gary Crowley!

[eatatmargos]

This is one of the greatest songs to come out of the 80's, just pure... innocent & FUN! Nick Heyward is AWESOME~

[vintagegarden]

I never realized how adorable NIck Heyward was back in the 80s! Love this song, it brings back some fun and happy memories. :)

[Zorpis]

After seeing this video I immediately fell head over heels in love with Nick Heyward back in the 80's! lol

[DarkDanB]

[MrDirtdan]

The 80's Had so much good diversity

[goldheartbadge]

Fan...ta...fantastic day, yeah-yeah-yeah, ye-e-eah! In DJ Mike Read's words, this song ends on a "Beatles" chord - i.e. G6. I still love Haircut 100!

[Karmusta]

Great memories of 80s, I am sure I worked with Graham Jone's Dad (Dave Jones) at a company called Muirhead in Beckenham, between 1975 and 1977. He was always talking about his guitar playing son. Anyone got a contact for Graham ?? Would like to know how he and his Dad are doing.

[aurelieponygirl]

[Annamandabella]

I was wondering where my brother was sitting in the car on this low budget video CLASSIC from the Cut. But then I noticed he was literally Drivin' Mr. Hair100 around like Morgan Freeman with that one dude with the really bad complexion blaring saxophone magic right into his ear!!!!!! How was he suppose to hear if a train was coming or something? Careless behavior for one of me favorite bands! Pelican West is one of the greatest albums right up there with "Band on the Run"-Joe Jacksons "Night an

When I'm so in love with you?

I can't sit down and I cry in pain

With night and day

[novortex]

Well I can find a funny feeling Funny as a smile When your mouth is all dry Why? Fantastic day! Well it's a fantastic day! I know I've lost myself again True love has past me by I tried to shave myself Be a happier guy Night and day

[novortex]

Well there's a great amount of strain About getting on that train Every day and every night The only thing that makes it good Is seeing my favourite sight Prance and flutter stride down that green escalator yeah When I'm getting off my train And my love is on my brain Every day and every night The only thing that makes it right Is seeing my favourite sight Crying in the night with the summer in her eyes tonight Fantastic day!
