  • The song that started it all for me in the '80's with Icehouse... Brilliant.

  • Icehouse is a very underrated band. Their first album is really good.

  • One of the best songs of the 80's..Simply great!!!!

  • Actually he's saying you gotta be crazy baby to WANT a guy like me.

  • This is what the nice guys think to themselves a lot when they fall for a woman who doesn't feel the same "You Gotta be Crazy baby, to not want a guy like me!" God, it would be great in an ideal world if people could love others and know what they wanted genuinely towards them like this song is describing in the lyrics. Love this song strikes a cord in many hearts

  • When the teleportation machine is invented, I'm getting my ass on over to Australia to see these guys

  • To those taking the piss out of Iva's hairstyle back then, believe it or not EVERYONE had mullets in the mid '80s. It wasn't the bogan haircut it is today - it was the height of fashion. Sounds funny to say it now, but only the coolest and trendiest had that style - it didn't even have a name (the first time I ever heard it called a "mullet" was in the mid '90s when no one wore them any more) In 10 years from now everyone will be taking the piss out of faux-hawks kids wore a few years back....

  • Icehouse needs to do a national tour as the only act. Hall and Oates just ate into Icehouse time. Iva's voice is as strong as ever it was 20 years ago and he's the master musician. Rock on, Icehouse!

  • TIMELESS MEMORIES NEVER GROW OLD OR DIE, ONLY GET BETTER AND BETTER. !!

  • Icehouse blew Hall & Oates off the fucking stage in Melbourne. Totally awesome!

  • went and seen them at the melbourne convention centre on thursday night to support hall and oats hall and oats should have been supporting them awsome band

  • @Mega80sRocker Yep I'm with you there. It wasn't a fluke either 'cos I saw them both at Day On The Green at Melbourne's Rochford Winery on Sunday and Icehouse made Hall and Oates look like amateurs. Every one of the crowd were on their feet rocking out to Iva and the boys, then when H&O came on they stayed on their feet and left!!! Iva, never stop touring!!!!!

  • A Day on the Green was awesome on Sunday night! I never knew that 'Electric Blue' was co-written by John Oates from 'Hall and Oates' who were also there at the show!!

  • Just been to Villa Maria Wines Concert tonight Sunday, awesome Ice House.

  • I too miss the 80's..life was good and anything was possible.

  • This is by far one of my favorite groups of the 80s! I am so lucky to have gotten to experience the best decade of all..Iva Davies is very talented..he is still making music today in his 50's...If I were to turn on the radio today I wouldn't know what the hell was playing..I am proud to say I'm stuck in the 80's Forever!!

  • Does anyone know who the model in this video is? Her eyes are amazing.

  • @DandAinTac She's singer/ actress Cassandra Delaney Denver. Check out her profile at imdb. 

  • What's the difference between the songs of today to the songs of the 80s?

    The songs of today are mechanical, the songs of the 80s are free-wheeling. Therefore, it is better time to hear so many great music in the 80s.

  • @masterofmusicism Foo Fighters??? Yr having a laugh. They are one of the most boring shitest bands around! RATM are over rated and lame. ACDC, yeah they are cool so thats ok. But really?? The Foo Fighters????? TEEEEEHEEEEE!!!! ;-?

  • @ariesscorpiorising whats your problem m8. is this what you do. ya go around uTube attacking people over comments they make to get your kicks. fuckin grow up m8. your 34 yr old man. stop being such a fucken loser. and FYI the foo fighters are a very good band full of originality and uniqueness in a time where these two attributes are few and far between and they have a very distinct sound. So maybe the only blind buffoon here is you.

  • @meanmaori00 NAH! Foo Fighters are not original and unique, they are boring as HELL and samey. Also, in regards 2 yr previous comment, Iva was a "grown man" when he had his mullet. Do u have a prejidice towards mullets or something?? Ya FASCIST!! TeeHee!! XD

  • @ariesscorpiorising RATM over rated??What planet are you on? And by the way Dave Grohl has more talent than you give credit.He is proof that an amazing singing voice is not always required to be an awesome rock band.Last time I checked he dosent use tone adjustment like every other wanker these days.You need educating my freind!

  • @masterofmusicism Mate, I dont need educating. RATM are indeed overrated, and the guy sings like punch and judy on helium, with the same old boring riffs.

    Foo Fighters are indeed a load of boring tedious samey guff, would send any person with good musical taste into a coma.

    It is all a matter of taste, and not "educating", as I know these bands well, seeing as my family constantly play their boring records. My taste happens to be good, hence why I recognise them as shit. ;-)

  • this has to be one of the greatest decades of all. def the best music. no one had a clue about fashion, some of the worst dress sense came from the 80s along with some of the worst haircuts and the best thing is no one cared it was just the 80s. will we ever have a time where we can feel so free again. i just love the 80s

  • @meanmaori00 Talking out yr BUMHOLE!!! The 80s had the BEST fashion and haircuts, u blind BUFFOOOOOOOOOONNN!!!! ;-)

  • Comment removed

  • @ariesscorpiorising M8. the only one talking out of a "BUMHOLE" is you. and i certainly dont appreciate you calling me a blind BUFFOON over a comment i've made which clearly states my fondness of the 80's anyway. Now if your trying to tell me that having a perm when your a fully grown "MAN" is acceptable in this day and age then maybe you have a bit of a problem with RETARDATION!!! because you'd have to be retarded to say that.

  • @meanmaori00 Your comments say it all, you are an autistic NUT!!  X-D

  • i love the mullet ! i wanna go to the 80s !!!!!!

  • @alizeperriard You need a hot tub time machine

  • My favorite song ever!!!!!!!!!!

  • I prefer the ORIGINAL video.....is she masturbating towards the end????

  • The 80s........decade of danceable tunes, music with harmony, teenage crushes, and fantastic memories we could only go back to in your minds but well worth the time to sit back and reminisce

  • Que buenos recuerdos de los 80´s!!!

    

  • beautiful forever 80´s

    

  • elisabel35 sos una genia el video se ve y se escucha perfecto

  • The most beautiful women ever to live were the 80's.

  • Classic 80's !! Makes me nostalgic for my childhood.

  • Iva Davis! How wonderful to be able to 'dial up' this iconic video. Love the Blue Mountains backdrop and the 80s hairdo that was de rigeur in the 1980s but has been of late dismissed as a 'mullet'. He was so hot!

  • Damn song started 15 years of a doomed romance for me. STILL gets me after all these years...  damn girl even looks similar. Best band ever IMO.

  • Classic!! Take me back to the 80's

  • god I miss the 1980s as well take me back and drop me in 1981 and stop say late 1987 and rewind

  • God I miss the 8O's.....what a magical time it was!

  • un gran clasico siempre vigente y un gran un gran recuerdo de mi juventud ... gracias por subirlo aqui --- miguel de argentina ---03 - 09 - 11 -

  • crazy fashion that

  • cant believe there are only 61213 views!

  • "... all lead guitarists think that the sun shines out fo their asses" hahahha! good one!

  • Iva Davies has my most favourite mullet in the world. Tufted then straight to curls and whatever direction his face is pointed, the neckwarmer follows perfectly.

  • When they first toured as Flowers..man they ROCKED..HARD...such talent...

  • This song is dedicated to a girl that I never got to know because I was too shy.

  • @Stealthkeys77 man life's to short, don;t livein regrets, if you go for it

  • Such beautiful, simple , well put together melodies and lyrics...this band is one of the greatest ... thank Australia!!

  • my fave

  • Great memories. The best music ever. Love the '80s.

  • One of my favorite songs from the 80's awsome!

  • Great Song ! I'd like to buy it but can't find it on Itunes or anywhere else? Any ideas? 

  • @pwr3464

    Using a PC, Wavpad (I'm using version 3.02, trial version) will record streaming audio, using the default settings after it installs, or there are many other programs I'm sure, you could even snatch the video onto a local drive using some video capture freeware, and then record the audio after that.

    Google will find you numerous software options. Good luck!

  • @pwr3464 Use a program called "Audacity" to capture the audio at neutral settings, then export as an MP3....good luck.

  • 1:22 .thems is some great ass convict getalong! I'm pretty sure my 80's wardrobe doesnt consist of those sweet ass shorts!!!

  • Iva Davis

  • @lalita781 No, Iva Davies (born Ivor Arthur Davies, 22 May 1955, Wauchope, New South Wales, Australia), you are welcome.

  • Go the magnificent mullet!

  • This is my very own love's theme.

  • Icehouse have been going for 30 years, awesome band, awesome music, don't stop guys ever

  • This song makes me ask to my dear wife the same thing: You've got to be crazy, baby, to love a guy like me... I love you, Bertha.

    Great song and vid!!! I love 80's so bad!!!

  • Memories....

  • its a great song

  • Those were the days!

  • Come on the line" if I'm dreaming don't wake me" I mean come on you gotta be in love to think that

  • This song is one of those uncluttered (as today's music is) clean depictions that could make any 'just now' going out couple dance to for the 1st time and remember years later. DAMN GOOD !

  • Why did the 80's have to end!!!

  • woot love it so much!! Reminds me of going out with my friends looking for chicks:)

  • I still have a pocket of hope!

  • I don't know if I'm just weird but I think that lead singer has an adorable face.

  • I hadn't heard this in so long, I'd almost forgotten the full magnitude of the coolness of this tune! GOD I miss the '80's!

    Except for mullets. About the only thing from the '80's I'm glad is gone!

  • I LOVE THIS SONG :::))))

  • I know all lead guitarists think that the sun shines out fo their asses but that clip at about .30 takes the biscuit ;-)

  • @yemieko - Lead Guitar god is good for one thing...Fret wank! Ha! Ha! Ha!

  • There aren't many songs out there that just smack you in the face and say, "LISTEN TO ME RIGHT NOW!!"

    This is one.

    You gotta be outta your mind to dislike this song........

    reevaluate your miserable existence.....

  • @13MindsEye this song didn't slap you in the face It grabbed you by your hair and would let go till you loved this song

  • @13MindsEye this song didn't slap you in the face It grabbed you by your hair and beat you sensless

  • Absolutely beautiful tune.

  • Is the girl his wife?

  • Was my wedding first dance 20 odd years ago. She's still crazy, Love Icehouse

  • -Same girl in "Elecrtic Blue?"

  • @EuroTour13 Same girl, it's Cassandra Delaney Denver.

  • please take me back to the 80:s

  • @Thehardstylernr1 I couldn't agree more.

  • I'd give my entire net worth(and my two front teeth) to be back in the 80s-it had everything and most importantly, sensational music.

  • @Thehardstylernr1 If only there really were a Hot Tub Time Machine! The '80's were the best years of my life. It is terrible how far we've fallen since then. And not just musically!

  • @Mosux2007 This song is one of those uncluttered (as today's music is) clean depictions that could make any 'just now' going out couple dance to for the 1st time and remember years later. DAMN GOOD !

  • @Thehardstylernr1

  • @Thehardstylernr1 listening this you're there....

  • @Thehardstylernr1 If you ever find a way back, let me know...I call shotgun!!

  • @Thehardstylernr1 maybe you should get in touch with someone who's trying to get out of the 80's?! It would be a great win-win situation, don't you think! :-D (btw i'm not that person)
