Back when this was released on Laserdisc I worked at Technidisc where this disc was made. It was fun "working" there when we ran this job the day went so fast.
This song sets me free! The music makes me feel like I am soaring above the sky, yet I'm still here on earth experiencing palpitations. There's a hint of glamor in it all, but above all this song celebrates swooning over your lover.
I remember watching this for the first time in about 1997. My flatmate at the time was obsessed with Dead or Alive, and for the 2 years that we lived together he would play this over and over. We'd also do the melodramatic hand movements when Pete would sing "Get me to the doctor!" It was very camp.
This is such a great performance !! Pete Is the sexiest man ever !! Wish I could have been there !! Love DOA !! Please bring them back !! Get me to the Doctor !!
I love Pete Burns! So, I'm going to do a performance as if I was Pete Burns! I have bought a peruke similar to the Pete's 80*s hair... Greetings from México! (I speak a few English, so excuse me...)
Fine, so I am too old, but..During this new year's eve I watched all music channels, and even the so called dance videos are effing boring and uniform, and let me not get on the "black" stuff, that is even more uniform and mindlessly sex-bitch-bling crap, without any personality to a point where the 'name' of the performer can be completely avoided. DorA Alive stayed fresh to this day, singable and sexy. Love Pete's voice.
Exelent song. Very oriental feeling. No wonder the Japanese loved this band. Sad though I was born in the 90s and never would have got to see them live.
Pete Burns why u didnt really need a change- here r a few reasons: Lips (delicious), check, hypnotizing eyes, check, hair-80's style, check, powerful- sultry voice, check, tallness, check, talent, check n movement, check...!! Need anymore?!
I am straight and I used to dress just like pete in the 80's and it was the best time of my life...I'm serious too the hair ,tights ,makeup I did it but that did'nt have the labels one would have put on them nowadays which is so sad ...you know cause you were there....Ahhhh to be young again .
In Oklahoma, there was more homophobia in the 80's than there is now, though it's still terrible. Oklahoma is one of those backward places like Wyoming, where stupid, right-wing people are in abundance.
do you remember in the 80's how hard it was for our gay friends to just be themselves?I think us guys who dressed the way we did (Me especially) helped break down the bariers at times cause I would get the questions and when I said I was straight (and keep in mind I looked like pete burns )sometimes it helped people form better views of people .I know that me growing up in the new wave /goth scene helped me to be the accepting and liberal person I am.Your really far ...Iam in AZ. very cocrvtv.
hE IS LYPSIYNCHING THIS SONG AS HE DOES MOST LIVE PERFORMANCES AND FOR AS TO WHY THERE ARE "3 PETE BURNS" IT IS BECAUSE THERE WHERE 3 CONCERTS IN JAPAN WHERE THIS WAS TAPED AND THEY SPLICED TOGETHER HIS PERFORMANCE FORM ALL THREE CONCERTS..THUS YOU'LL NOTICE SOME SLIGHT COSTUME LOOKS DEPENDING ON WHAT HE WORE ON ANY GIVEN NIGHT...THIS CONCERT WAS VERY ENJOYABLE THOUGH...WISH IT COULD HAVE BEEN ON THIS MAGNITUDE WHEN I SAW THEM IN PITTSBURGH BUT IT WAS AT A MUCH SMALLER VENUE SADLY.
Yes. it is a pity. BUT. . .this is just my point of view, not everyone agrees. But he looks good here and if he stayed that way he would look even more awesome than he does today =]
All this is mimed and not one instrument is being played! The songs are just play back recordings from the originals. You could never get away with this today! I love DOA though!
Sure you can. You really think Britney Spears and all those douchebags are really singing live at all of their shows? Some of them do, some of the time, but lip synching and pitch correction are the standard.
Inmy opinion, britney should use playback, cause when she doesn't she sound horrible live. But that's just how it is when the show is more than an hour lenght and a star has to sing and dance and do the show at the same time. But there is many bands who does great live shows (for example Depeche Mode).
i bothers me that that couple of silly of they hallucinate with the guitar, not so that they took them , even of ....neither they know ehere they are stopped
above they throw away the microphone of Pete before he left to sing... grrrrrrr
But ver goo concert the one that gave in japan and but that anything the song an him that he sings very well and... he is see very nice :)
I love this song and I love his bulge,oupppppppppssss;)
