[LindelofIsGod]

This was on Career Opportunities. The most underrated John Hughes movie ever.

[AlmightyScubba]

lol this has been my ringtone for months..

[SCROGY]

@BeverlyHills2ndGen As far as the 90's you forgot the most original and best band of the decade: Morphine. Two string bass and double sax's for the win.

A nod to Primus as well for pure originality.

Oh, and My Bloody Valentines Loveless. Best album to sleep to .....EVER.

[PremiumMind]

I'm 17 again... GO!

Tones on Tail, Love & Rockets & Bauhaus... wish I could roll back time.

[Adventurestud]

@PremiumMind "The hands of time cannot be turned with remorseful yearn"

You are right of course.

[skidooing4life]

[LythaWausW]

@ernielarum

[jgarkinos]

this was, er um still is a retro punk song that brings back many awesome memories, the ole chicago underground get in the club thru the alley and watch the people and dance like there is no tomorrow kinds shit

[Nesihonsu]

amazing band - one of my lifelong heros!

[sgg25981393]

We NEED MORE COWBELL!!

[charles69]

old skool GOTH at its best

[buzcajun]

These guys played in Bauhaus with Peter Murphy, and If you like this, you'll them.

[charlottevard]

@buzcajun Bauhaus, godfather of goth. I should know, I'm goth. Hahaha!

[logybear86]

What a great fucking tune, first time I've ever heard it!!

[treph75]

any decade was a good decade for music, and personally if I had to choose the worst, it would be this one! I'm so tired of over used autotune and frankly, it's more novelty to me. I love music, and I love good music, but most of all, I love to feel good music!

[BeverlyHills2ndGen]

@treph75: Point taken about auto-tune, but when looking back at previous decades (and this only increases the further back one looks) people have a tendency to single out the masterpieces while ignoring, or simply not being aware of, the much more numerous mediocre songs.

Especially with the 1960s, which rock music fans delude themselves into thinking was some golden age for rock, the charts were actually dominated by Musicals (i.e. Mary Poppins, Hello Dolly) for the majority of the decade!

[CaneFu]

@BeverlyHills2ndGen

"with the 1960s...the charts were actually dominated by...Mary Poppins, Hello Dolly for the majority of the decade"

WRONG, I don't recall even hearing that shit on the radio once back then. The MUSIC charts were dominated by hit songs from the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Aretha Franklin, Jimi Hendrix, Otis Redding, The Byrds, Stevie Wonder, The Who, The Supremes, The Temptations, Wilson Pickett, The Doors, & many others. I actually LIVED in that era & remember.

[BeverlyHills2ndGen]

@CaneFu: You can look up the billboard archives yourself.

Google "best selling album by year", scroll to the 1960s, and you will see that only 2 out of 10 are rock albums, 1 out of 10 is jazz, 1 out of 10 is mainstream pop, and the other 6 out of 10 are from musicals.

[CaneFu]

@BeverlyHills2ndGen

You are confused about hit movies that were popular with old people and little kids back then - NOT mainstream music.

[BeverlyHills2ndGen]

@CaneFu: I'm not just talking about the films, but the soundtracks, which were unrivaled in sales up until the latter half of the 60s.

[80smsiclvr]

@treph75

no one should ever call any decade of music "worst".. there is always a time for the creation of music. It all has it's place and time....memories created is what music is all about, it's the heart, the soul, the love of whomever feels its at that time with that song

[Sunflower0122Z]

@treph75 Did you hang out and dance in the clubs when these songs were coming out? That is where the magic and the creativity of these songs flourished.The scene back then was a blast. Plenty of great djs and freaks who loved music.

[codycobourg]

@Sunflower0122Z

sure did- danced alot to this and lots of other stuff-

love it stil- lol

[treph75]

@Sunflower0122Z did I come off as someone who doesn't like this song? I love music, and I am really into good music!

[jgarkinos]

obviously to those not from the "underground" clubs in chicago, going back in the day, who dont know the clubs you enter from back alley ways to hear songs that reflect your inner bust out kinda mood FUCK YOU

[alec9tap]

@jgarkinos im from chicago and neo nightclub is a club you have to enter thru the alleyway........ but i prefer smartbar more than neo

[jgarkinos]

obviously to those not from the "underground" clubs in chicago, going back in the day, who dont know the clubs you enter from back alley ways to hear songs that reflect your inner bust out kinda mood FUCK YOU, Exit, Neo's and Smartbar have and always will ROCK as it were

[jgarkinos]

@treph75 hmmmm, not from chicago? Recalling the "back in the day" when underground clubs, which are still there were the epitomy of whew let yourself loose, Exit, Neo's and the such.........

[fortminor85]

GROSSE POINTE BLANK!!!!!

[007IrishLad]

one of the best club songs from the 80's

[RRguitaristTC]

This song is in the Odyssey Aaron Ross and Terry adams

Awesome BMX flatland riders

check it out

on my channel

[jaykiernan13]

@RRguitaristTC

thats why i came here

[RRguitaristTC]

@jaykiernan13

????? where????? idk this songs is pretty damn good

[thisisthejohnshow]

@ginsushark what about all the other decades?

[ginsushark]

@thisisthejohnshow - im not sure what your point is. I already said that there's always tons of excellent music being made.

[thisisthejohnshow]

@ginsushark you only mentioned like the last 3 decades, which implies that all music before that is shit.

[ginsushark]

@thisisthejohnshow - you must have missed the start of the thread. I was addressing specifically maligned decades. theres always is/was good music. right now my iphone is filled with 1920s hot jazz. you can get recorded music comps back to the late 1800s. classical music going back to the 6th century.

[sporocyst1973]

I have a fever and the only perscription is MORE COW BELL!!

[launna1965de]

the best 80's song ever!!!

[Soundfrequency]

Ahhh yes, this song speaks to me of the sweet whispers of spring, with a gentle hop on the nose.

[h1ghpower]

richie hawtin killed with this one ;) nice fkin cch000n!!

[ginsushark]

@BeverlyHills2ndGen - btw theres tons of good 70s disco. and both zed and clapton have some horrible cuts. never trust music critics anyways. theres no money in music journalism - and traditionally most music critics are biased (theyre in bands or they OWN a label) - and most move on to other $ pursuits before they get a full education on music and styles anyways.

[ossie19681]

I think i never heard a band that used a cowbell as an instrument! I think its original!!

[ginsushark]

@ossie19681 - its one of teh most common percussion instruments

[conspiracymedia]

@juliettelamuria

90's fun for me I was in Seattle as a DJ @ Vogue

[T3CHN1CS1200]

BADASS TUNE....YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYA­!!!!!

[ILZ31989]

its the best song to dance.

Thanks for posting

[mrjaxthecat]

back in the day, i was a dj...this song always FILLED the dance floor. still stands the test of time as a great track!

[kirim73]

b-side of love and rockets all the stetic of the band looks its based on white color just a b-side and im agree with NL few bands in th 90 are good..

[joeyoutlaw]

@NLSpecialist88 a.r.e weapons??? surely they are up there with the best of them, dont be so naive

[982Munchie]

Will always remind me of Grosse Pointe Blank.

[fortminor85]

@982Munchie TEN YEARS, MAN!! TEN!!!

[982Munchie]

@fortminor85 "I killed the President of Paraguay with a fork..." ;-)

[fortminor85]

@982Munchie "..how have you been?" Don't kill anybody for a few days, see how that feels.

I'll give it a shot.

NO, don't give it a shot, don't shoot anything.

[stephwhi2]

This is punk new wave music.

[wyogi06]

@stephwhi2 You are 100% correct!! Love live "true" Punk/New Wave!!!

[rdaly333]

GO where?

[rdaly333]

Can't I just LIKE this song without arguing about it?

[Eroldir]

It's a side project from Daniel Ash. He was in the gothic rock/batcave band Bauhaus. But, this is more punk than gothic rock.

[hervi24]

enchufaliiiii

[pinkyfloydyfan]

Remember me a time!

[PookaBot]

Saw Daniel Ash play this song for 15 minutes straight in Buffalo a while back. It was godlike cool.

[Operaman41]

The Dance Floor would just be packed when this song would come on!!

[BelgicaLeslie]

love the energy!

[carlaokar]

best song !!!!

[LBKLily]

I missed this song so much!!! Thanks for posting it!! And thanks for the memories!!!

[malastrat]

Prima! Super!

[Nostalgicvideos]

The flip side of this RED vinyl (import 12") has an awesome song called "Lions". Nice and cool, somewhat LOUNGEish ^.^

[NelsonCacheira]

richie hawtin played this song in a festival, he killed it!

[dsasukefan]

This song was on the mary-kate and ashley movied called Getting There. Thanks for posting

[juggz79]

FUCKING AWSOME TRACK

[UrbaneG]

@Dankhank. I spotted that too. very funny film. I'm the only person I know who has the album. There must be others? It's a great record, must dig it out and play it tonight.

[exibicionistaxxx]

caraca

lembro muito da minha infancia

[Dankhank]

a portion of this song was in the HS reunion dance in "Grosse Pointe Blank."

[GazKTX]

Tell me about it!

Finally found it :)

[mejusthappyrobot]

It still needs more cowbell

[SpeshelEdTed]

@mejusthappyrobot dude Christopher Walken and Will Ferrell should've been featured in this song!

[malveylicious]

@mejusthappyrobot lo ...cow bells are the 80's version of auto tune!!!!!!

[disposableteens220]

i like the cow bell

[beselbic]

That's a crazy-cool bass line.

[gondule]

@beselbic yeah

[caspash13lds]

pretty sure its tones

[Lozenko]

this a awesome video

I LOVE IT

[Juliancaesar1237]

Christian says is better but tones rocks just like love and rockets and bauhaus

[zedrein18]

DANCE!

[tickedoffnow]

I luv this song XD

[kymm00]

For some reason, this is one of my least favorite Tones tunes. Not sure why... I think I prefer their more surreal, atmospheric works. Still a great song, though.

[creamstripe]

I agree. But this song is so iconic to our midlifey personal time capsule.

The other songs you are talking about recall a more intimate side for me like wanting a boyfriend really bad and not doing well with that and making art all by myself. Longings period.

So much feeling and true longing but no real emptiness. Those songs.

[woburt]

I totally agree KYMM00

[kymm00]

It's good to know I'm not the only one.

[PRESTOTHECAT]

Brings back so many memories of white face, black lipstick and eyeliner, clove cigarettes, fun drugs and fun ways to be self-conscious on the road to self-discovery.

[xdeadxtreex]

woah you pretty much nailed it on the head there

[mictlanblume]

yes yes yes exactly gosh....all of that...my teenage years!!!! and i dont regreát  anything!!!!!

[PRESTOTHECAT]

Isnt it great that we are the age we are to have experienced those origins at their time. Good thing.

[KingBabyDuck326]

fuck yeah. i've been trying to find this song for months.

[RealJan00]

he played it at Amnesia in occasion of the 10 years of Cocoon, in Ibiza... 03/08/2009

[h2odkl1]

[mcr4life80]

[WoodRatGirl]

I always wondered who sang this song and now I know!

Awesome :)

[goatsinherkitchen]

I was lucky enough 2 summers ago to see them on a reunion tour opening for NIN>.Hearing telegram Sam and God in an Alcove live...well lets leave it at I can die happy.

[goatsinherkitchen]

Everyone here is aware this is what's left of Bauhaus, before they beacame Love and Rockets. Daniel Ash had some serious drug issues back in the day, part of the reason bauhaus broke up.

[EECIEI]

fuck i just started listening to bauhaus about 9 months ago and i always try to find out info about the bands i listen to and somehow i missed this. I've known this song forever but i didnt know who it was. Im gonna try to get a tones on tail cd

[theScytheofGod]

Oh, this is that song, I loved this shit...

[sliv812]

That's what I want! More cowbell!

[wormsong]

yeeees, Miami clubs played this like an anthem all through the 90's! Babylon, 5th street, Another World..can I get an AMEN?!

[kmjones623]

I used to go to a little club called the Kitchen somewhere in the middle of Miami in the late 90's. It was where I first met and fell in love with this song. soo good. yah yah yah yah

[ACERAMGAD]

Yeh....lol...I lived in Fort lauderdale then..my brother and I went there...cool)))))) Cheers!

[NLSpecialist88]

Dude put a period after 70's. Anyone who was listening to this kind of stuff in the 80's knows the 90's SUCKED. The only band in the past 20 years that even comes close to the greatness of early/mid eighties is Interpol.

[BeverlyHills2ndGen]

Well, that's HIGHLY a matter of opinion. There were plenty of good bands in the 90s, they just had drastically different styles from the bands of previous years...

In every decade, the fans of previous decades say "the music today sucks"; Does that mean music has consistently declined for several decades? No, there always has been lots of great music to listen to...it just gets harder to find, as corporations take more and more creative control over mainstream music.

[MrRik2]

Well said.

[goatsinherkitchen]

Exactly!!! most of what I personally listen to has never seen radio play. I'm ok with that, but the fact that there is so much GREAT stuff out there that no one has ever heard of is disheartening to say the least.

[weirdscience85]

@BeverlyHills2ndGen- Strongly agreed,, well said

[ginsushark]

@BeverlyHills2ndGen - it also gets easier to find. you can trade music with strangers over the internet. all sorts of rare music is up for free on youtube. anyone can publish a music blog. anyone can record almost professional quality music on home computers. theres an explosion of recordings being made.

[BeverlyHills2ndGen]

@ginsushark: Exactly - this is the paradox of modern music: Because music recording is becoming more diverse, more ubiquitous, and more accessible...it is simultaneously becoming harder to weed through all the crap and find the good stuff.

I bet there have been more songs recorded and published in the last two decades than in the whole century before that.

[Fermezlabouchee]

@BeverlyHills2ndGen

besides that, who are you to say disco music or the backstreet boys and britney spears suck or that the music is less creative then rock/indie/underground music? what makes this music bad? it has melody, harmony, rhythm, and it can even stick in your head. imo it's the rejection of the mainstream image that makes us dislike this kind of music, while an sich it's very well written.

[0gami1tto]

@Fermezlabouchee

@Fermezlabouchee

no, nut Britney and BSB's really do suck. Like, seriously. It's less creative because it's created for them. Manufactured shit. The people singing it are basically just puppets for the record companies.

I'm not saying it can't be done well. Bow Wow Wow are an example of it being done well. But 90% of the time it's this brain-dead bubblegum pop shit. It still is now, it went away for a while but now it's all come back with the whole Disney/Bieber thing etc

[modsleix6]

I hear that...

[joeyoutlaw]

@NLSpecialist88 how about a.r.e weapons?

[weirdscience85]

@NLSpecialist88- That was kind of narrow minded but I somewhat agree with the comment about the early to mid 80's but ill have to disagree about the 90's sucking. The 90's were great decade looking back. Todays music has so much crap tho..

[wackdoodle]

@NLSpecialist88 Interpol is not an 80s band which shows that you know very little about the music scene.

TOT was da-da -esque music. It was very innovative for its time.

[ginsushark]

@wackdoodle DaDa esque? they were just another art rock band. TONs of art rock bands. They were good but maybe not as unique as you think.

[rockmusicisbest1]

this song is cool! i like it. this is from the 80`s which was a time of cool music just like the 70`s and also the 90`s!

[RottenCourtney]

Pleeeeease where can I download this song????? I can't find it on aMule!!!!!

[LynnNBoys]

I may have the LP in my basement... ;)

[silviamn]

Esta es la clásica canción que te hace levantar de tu lugar a bailar aunque no tengas ganas!!

Love it!!!

[doctorw2]

oh this is mint!!!

[massmanx]

Check out the version with the classic film clips below. It's titled just "Go!" It's guaranteed to get yer ya-ya's out.

[Kattgerl09]

WOW havent heard this song since I was 19 yrs..

[LynnNBoys]

I had almost forgotten about Tones on Tail! Haven't heard them in 20 years! More of a Love and Rockets fan, but still liked T on T too!

[kittyspazztastic]

i 1st heard this in the movie party monster when marilyn manson is christina and driving a big rig truck.

now it is on car ads

[rellman]

I immediately thought of Manson in Party Monster when I saw that new car commercial too!

[kittyspazztastic]

yea hahaha.

i go out clubing and they still play alot of party monster songs includeing this one...

i am just like...

why is my club music on the tv???!!!!!!

[aussyboo]

HellYeah<3! (_I[♥]iT_)

[BPCpresents]

Never mind all the crap below. EVERYTHING about this is so T Rex. Its just sooooooooooooo TrexY

[renefrited]

well, well, well, thanks a lot for the track im crazy brasilian livin in europe for 10 years and youtube is a part of my day life, this song in, means such nice thing.

[unterlord]

Please don't just start listening to this music because it's "cool" all of a sudden. The scene is ina world of hurt, and this would absolutley obliterate it further.

[Woebin]

I love how you're so upset about "the corruption of goth" that you have to make three angry posts in a row about it.

For the record, I'm into gothic rock and know what's what, but take a chill pill. It's just music.

[lovemusicsomuch]

LOL!! BeverlyHills2ndGen, your info's awesome. I totally agree. whatever this style is, thank God for it, it's perfect. I think it's like post punk/new wave/dance/pop/garage. something like that....THANK YOU for uploading this. I LOVE this song.

[tronfire]

Are you kidding? i always thought this was a synth pop song. either way..... still GREAT!!!!!!

[blankredge01]

...does anybody else find it odd that the poster associated this song with Beverly Hills, 90120, rather than... say, Daniel Ash, Bauhaus, or the Goth scene? o_O ?

Tones on tail is a recording studio term. Back in the day when engineers used analog tape, they'd put a 1K TONE on all tracks to adjust channel levels of the console and tape machines for a desired recording level. Sometimes they would put the tones on the "
