Giving underground parties for last 4 months and this is one of the favo all times, the beat and the sound is sooo groovy lol, we all love it.......:)
@Supersweetguy - No, that is NOT John Turturro. LOL It's Richard Coles, Jimmy Somerville's partner at the time. He was a classically trained pianist, and later became a journalist before becoming a priest with the Church of England (yes, really). He's also now a radio host. He is still openly gay, and he and his present partner live together in celibacy.
The Nerdy guy here (John Turturo), was one of the guys casted in movie Transformers. Wow, how time flies. Never knew he was is this music video. Way to go John!!!
@00kirbyd wtf ! if u think its about dancing, then ur on a diff planet :P. btw when did u ever see ' not the best dancing ' in the 80s :P 80s was about the bands, the music..... dancing was an after thought :P
@00kirbyd What?! The dancers obviously were having fun? As I did dancing to this brilliant music when I was much younger. Think fun, not the Jackson-style tight choreography. Best version of a Jackson's-penned song.
lo siento,pero la juventud de ahora me da una pena tremenda.Sin valores y manejada por el PUTO PSOE.En los 80 se hicieron los primeros y mejores vídeos musicales y desde entonces nada ni nadie lo ha podido mejorar.¡ Forever los 80 !
One of the best songs a DJ can play at 2 a.m. - the packed floor overflowed every time. Today everyone in clubs is either so strung out on E or depressed because of the shitty music - it makes you want to go underground and find a better party in a better time. Rock on Communards and by the way, June Miles Kingston ROCKS too.
Y a quien le importa si es gay? casualmente la mayoría de los artistas tildados de gay o que incluso lo sean son unos genios. Por eso debemos renunciar a todo lo que nos han dado? Me disculpan pero "NO" y siempre Noooooooo.
jimmy got the last laugh....he was teased in school for being gay, and he did try killing himself, and in fact, smalltown boy was a song written about this, and here, thank god, he/jimmy, cae out the big winner, while making it *BIG* world wide, in the club scenes, and discos et more - formidable!!!! Bravo!!! Gay or not, this guy is one class act et has made his mark in history et music!!
remember learning all the dances from this song on our roller skates and teaching others how to do it when we were teenagers now that is some time ago lol
my straight mate used to get this on the karaoke take his shirt off and give it loads to jimmy somerville....and i mean to the point ppl thought he was backwards...lol....Danny Bang Bang take a bow son
Jimmy Sommerville is great and always has been in the 80's and 90's, I love his dancing, his songs and dancing makes me want to get up and do the same thing. :)
@Xzerling Even Madonna's dancers called and said "Wow, that's so gay!" Seriously though, its a great performance from Jimmy Somerville (and I remember having a thing for the blonde girl in the video). Boy Clifton Davis knew how to write a song - whether it's the Jackson 5, Gloria Gaynor or this version, I love it.
This renditon of the old Gloria Gaynor song is twenty four years old .
Doesn't time fly? Jimmy Somervile and wonderful falsetto make this a true disco delight . Power to the Gay generation . They get a hard time out there , and it's not fair .
Guess I will Have to go thru the archive for the video remix of this song. It is hilarious and epic. Starring Julie Childs. Found it and uploading now. Will send as a video response.
i remember i was 13 when i saw this video for the first time....i really liked the chick who appears at 2:15-2:16, and, believe me...i was fooled by this video...surrounded by all those gorgeous chicks, i thought Jimmy was straight!!!!!! how naive i was back then (1988)....
Thanks for puttin' it on here - it absolutely the best VERSION ever by one of the BEST Singer ever. THANKS Jimmy for your power, voice and STANDING up for all of us
I feel a rush everytime I hear this - the dancefloor would explode with excitement when the DJ played this and everyone jumped out there and just had fun - great song from a great era in music
beatiful version...wow whaT VOICE....
