  • What power pop band didn't play this..As long as they had a keyboard...I also remember playing "Making Room (Time?) for Nigel"...

  • @558828379 "Making PLANS for Nigel" - by XTC.

  • SCARFACE, THE WORLD IS YOURS! :D

  • I;m no an a old person but i heared This song In scarface And y say.. Fucking yeah the 70's!

  • 78 people got the Yellow Pills

  • this song is fresh, for real

  • 20/20 you go mike !

  • Great Track !!!!!

  • I remember doin' a lot of yellow pills in the 70's.

  • @MaceMn if you can remember you didn't eat enough of them

  • @grumpysoreolbastard One can never get enough.

  • This has got to be one the best American pop songs of all time.

  • another good song by 20/20 from the same album ... " leaveing your world behind"

    ... can you put it too up on your youtube page ?

  • @rshfn44 Not just that song, the whole album is epic. Power Pop at its best.

  • I have this LP just need a way to convert it to mp3.

  • @themadhawaiin2010 The way to convert is to have a new turntable that plugs into your PC/Mac with a USB cable. You can pick one up online for around $150-250.

    Another way is to plug your RCA cables into a good soundcard on the PC.

    Or you could sell me that album for $5 and I'll send you the mp3's.

  • @themadhawaiin2010 Buy a turntable and enjoy it through a nice system.

  • I have this LP just nee

    d a way to convert it to mp3.

  • Thanks for posting. Too bad Steve and the guys didnt get signed to a major label. They deserved it.  Does anyone outside the West Coast know about 20/20?

  • @sandieguitoadult I only know them because of the scarface game...

  • @sandieguitoadult ...yeah! I do' I found a promotional copy of this album in my father's radio station ( W A G L , Lancaster,SC) when I was 15(1978).I remember another song...leaveing your world behind ?

  • @rshfn44 Yes, all their songs were good. But I have the impression that those promo albums didn't get much airplay i.e. your family connection to a radio station is the only exposure they got. Yet the effusive comments from So Cal You Tubers demonstrate the possible fame outside of the limits of the West Coast.

  • @sandieguitoadult - I clearly remember this song being played a lot on Q FM 96, Columbus OH, during 1979, mixing it (and a whole slew of other new wave tunes of the day) in with all the usual 60's/70's classic rock.

  • FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i remember rodney on the roq playn this ditty early 80,s great times .....where were you in 82 for you outside of california kroq was a great fm radio station 106.7 and rodney played all the new and rare stuff kroq is still around ..rodney does his show once a while ..of course not the same ,but u can find rodney on the roq comps ..bands like the nuns the simpletones ...rodney played great stuff ..from the flesheaters to the fleshtones..wipers to the cheifs lots of 60,s garage punk to boot

  • @MrBrianlowdown Great times...Rodney introduced me to so many wonderful bands!!!

  • This was a great period in American rock and roll, the period when power pop bands like this started coming out and injecting more energy and exuberance into the music. I doubt we'll ever see a period like this again.

  • "Remember The Lightning" was the best song from this album. This was considered "New Wave" in 1979. The term "Alternative" didn't exist yet.

  • This is one of the coolest songs ever recorded. Power pop can make me smile, laugh and cry all at once.

  • SCARFACE!!!

  • I heard this song in scarface game lol, i love it

  • you both suck!

  • SCARFACE

  • wow i forgot all about this song. Thanks!

  • Lady Gaga likes to shove something else where the sun doesn't shine- lesbian dildo (check the vid Telephone) and a spare cock

  • this song is about xanax pills, anti anxious pills i guess !

  • @pitch30320 song was written long before xanax  came along

  • This song still sounds fresh,even though it's from 70s.That's what you call timeless.And Lady Gaga can shove her "music" up her ass.

    I'm sorry for the foul language but i can't stand it.

  • @TheEloeo its from the 80's i think. It says it is on Scarface anyway :L

  • Yellow pills came out in 1979 so it's almost 80's...

  • @TheEloeo Ahhhhh... Someone should get sacked for that lol jokes

  • @TheEloeo i guess i should get off your lawn!

  • @TheEloeo Is Lady Gaga's song saying "Poker face" OR "Poke her Face". I SERIOUSLY didn't know at first

  • @TheEloeo everybody's like "you cant listen that , its so old " if the song is made last month but you can listen 70's music even in 2100 ,

  • Buy the yellow pills, Ooohh

  • i heard this song on,scarface:the world is yours.

  • This takes me right back to their show at The Starwood....... oh so long ago..........

  • saw them there as well....I believe with The Quick...those were the days....

  • Starwood was the best club!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @theonlytruepunk

    Starwood was my home away from home...RIP.
