I worked at a SF disco back in the day when this song was played. I will say music was at an all time high of the quality of talent. Not like today. Back then it was hard to have a favorite. Disco was a bit different than new wave. But the aray of talent was great. Great to work to, great to listen to, great to be apart of. Happy New Year...Thumbs Up to this post
That 1 dislike is probably some teen who is brainwashed by today's culture and listens to the crap they call music today. Though I wasn't around when this came out, I would've loved to live during the 80s.
I thought for a second that you may be a young whipper snapper who knew no better then I realise from your profile that you have reached the age of 43 knowing nothing about the history of music. Then again it may have been a sarcastic comment which if it is I apologize if not then, I need say no more.
@GAZZA251170 YOUNG MAN, you are forgiven. Each of us has our very own knowledge. I might know about this and this is how you knew it. I would greatly respect your comment your great knowledge when it comes to the history of music from the time of Mozart. Keep it up! I'm just too busy with my career. Thanks!
@jbgiant2003 "This is the first rap that was ever produced" Do you really think that is true??? personally I know that to be an absoloute bollocks remark.
@jbgiant2003 great song...yes....but ...ARE FUCKING CRAZY?!?!?..."The most awesome rap I have ever heard"???..."This is the very first rap that was ever produced"??????....tell me you are really joking???....Go study the history of HIP-HOP before you make such stupid statements!...please! The Pet Shop Boys track is great no doubt......but lets not credit them with something other people created ......decades before this track even existed!Thanks.
Hi ulrtimatefury thanks for your comment! No doubt I would say you are the "superior" WHEN IT COMES TO MUSIC HISTORY AND HAD GIVEN THE MOST "EFFORT" in getting you heads SERIOUS on the books of music history hiphop edition! But sorry, no comment ulitimate fury! If you had all the time and that's how you feed your family! Sorry ! This is just based on what I know, and am busy taking care of my career and so happy with m wife and kid as well! So good luck! NO TIME FOR YOU! : )
motherfucking what, motherfucking no, motherfucking butt, motherfucking ho, yo to your mother, sucking on a sucker, going down the street waving to the trucker, buckle on my belt, sundae melt, big fat hell, everybody yell
Wow, this reminds me so much of my uncle, may he rest in peace, even 10 years later, when this song first came out, he's play this version a lot in his car. =D Thanks for posting.
this song REALLY came out in 1981, give or take a year or two - wbmx in chicago used to play it during the hot mixs. when it started getting airplay years later, we were baffled, but it was a definitely an enjoyable blast from the past then.
How did they do that then - via time machine? Neil and Chris only met in aug '81 in hifi shop in londons king road - so the legend goes. Maybe you know different? The Bobby 'o' version came out in '84 if thats what you mean.
siento esa energia dharmica en est piel urbana , mi mano porta un gran dolor que se extiende hacia los confines del horizonte rojo y puedo golpear algo mas que las latas vacias de las 5 de la mañana , puedo mirar sin los ojos que los perdi por mirar lo que nadies vio , puedo desaperecer de este mundo en una espiracion por para ser sincero ya no pertenesco a este lado
When a heard this song , i knew that something big was coming from England.....it sounds to brit and that's i love the pets....I'm going to see them next week in New York
Hot stuff, talk about the 80's and being in my 30's I love it. One day this song popped
up in my mind and I'm re-hooked.
