[katrice304]

Reminds me of The Lion Ling at the beginning lol

[i4dezign73]

When I'm down I just listen to the Fizz. I saw them live in 1984 - to this day they still have the ability to move me.... LOVE EM :P

[djspam80]

[d7106]

I'm 16 and I think Bucks FIzz are one of the best bands in the world. Brilliant music.

[80sisthebest]

Shelley Preston was Hot - Cheryl Baker is HOTTER ;-)

[simply14u]

I think this is one of their best!

[ColumRogers]

This is brilliant! :)

BUCKS FIZZ FOREVER!

[martincurd]

this should be higher in the 80s chart!!

[roguegeneandrea]

Just think of Duran Duran and 'Wild Boys' ... PS. Love the Fizz.

[hadders81]

Haven't heard that song in years. Love it!

[hobbily]

ONE WORD SUPERB :)

[pistolpete1971]

Shelley Preston was HOT!!!!

[pistolpete1971]

Shelley Preston was HOT!!!!

[jamiegrifter]

They released so many great singles but have to say this is my favourite!!! 1986 was a great year for pop music!!

[proto1type]

Ah, you have to admit, Buck's Fizz were great. Back in the days when music was..........well, MUSIC. They had a very successful run and deserved all of it. Great to watch this again after so long.

[forsk4u]

A+ love it!!!! such good comments before

[freacls]

love to see thise song over an Avatar video i think it suit it

[boboesq]

this was the soundtrack to dancing vegetables from a kids clip show in the 80's u.k, i think it was called ttv and had a cat puppet and a parrot, scragcat i think the cat was called!

[FatknackerMacca]

This would sound great in a mix with Wild Boys, Hazell Dean's They Say It's Gonna Rain, even Enya's Storms in Africa!

[FatknackerMacca]

Shame it misses the very, er, beginning lol! There's some fantastic drumming on Fizz tracks.

[pistolpete1971]

Shelley Preston is HOT!!!

[jonfletcher147]

I'm still in love with you Shelley Preston!! xxxxxx lol

[globecodds]

Top 80's Pop Trash! Fantastic!

[globecodds]

Top 80's Pop Trash! More, More, More!

[hobbily]

BLOODY FANTASTIC EH GANG

[joyceyman]

This video is very reminiscent of Duran Duran's "The Wild Boys" from 1984.

[bigzebb]

I agree with @joyceyman the video looks very similar to `The wild boys` vid, a totally new sound for BF...certainly grabs the attention !

[jkbutcher1]

I worked with Mike Nolan, Bobby Gee and Floella Benjamin in a pro-panto: Aladdin in the late 80's - they played a schizo Wishy-Washy; yes you guessed it one was Wishy and one was washy! Lovely guys; we had a great time; I played Princess Baldroubadour. Hello guys if you see this post

[cmsanders99]

i love this song big fan of bucks fizz

[bige6465]

still a top group

[john111257]

pretty good

[tazmanmcr]

A fantastic welcome back to the best 80s group in the world

[balduglybast]

Anyone got a copy of their top of the ops appearance singing this when it was at number 8?

[kylienachani]

I've just looked it up on wikki it was done by a group called FORCE 8.

Who were believe it or not The Doolys under an assumed name..

[SeventiesMania]

@kylienachani Sorry, this is another Wikipedia lie. Force 8 were a band from Liverpool, and the name came from the postcode, Liverpool 8, aka Toxteth. They had nothing to do with the Dooleys, who were from Manchester.

[kylienachani]

@SeventiesMania Funny you say that. I thought the original band came from Liverpool aswell.

But when i looked it up on WIKI I just asumed that the information was correct.

Thanx for confirming my suspicion.

[SeventiesMania]

@kylienachani Not only that, but somewhere on the web there is a pic of the original Force 8 sleeve, with the band on the front, one of whom is black. I don't remember any black Dooleys! ;-)

[kylienachani]

This was a cover version of a song by a little known band released earlier that year.

Has anybody any idea who the other band was?

[MrMarco67]

I love this song. I was a massive Bucks Fizz fan in my teens. I even have a copy of the 12 inch vinyl album of "New Beginning" signed by all 4 members of the band. I still shake my 40-something toosh when I hear their tracks. Love it.

[Forestamtul]

I find this song is better than Making your mind up and its more catchier.

Who was your favourite Bucks Fizz member? thanks,

[MrNightblade]

@MrMarco67 do you have the new ian levine remix..?

[citibfs]

loved this song and video....they had some good hits too...love them!!

[blondinagrohl]

jay

[mariongangiel]

Super Saline Rules, Mumbaa Sarah X

[stormmine]

I thought Bucks Fizz did the wrong thing replacing Jay. They should have continued juts as a three-piece. Things are never quite the same when a long-standing original member is replaced and Preston looked so much younger than the other three.

[frements]

who was it that got replaced one of the males of one of the fymales and who was it

[stormmine]

Jay Aston left the band, she may even have been fired, what ever happened it was not an amicable split. She was replaced by Shelley Preston.

[mariongangiel]

This is a wee shout for my wee pal Sarah, who is also known as Super Saline, Mumbaa Sarah, whoo hoo.

[leamgem]

Massively under-achieving single - No 8 in June 86. Remember it well, getting the lyrics soooo wrong, mumbling my way through the verses+then belting out 'Mombaaa Sarah'! Anyway, a fine summer record - their best+final hit in the UK.

[DominatorMCMLXXVIII]

Oh yes, their belated comeback single. Hadn't Jay emmigrated at this point? Anyway, confession time. I thought Bobby's mullet was coolness itself at the time. (My mum has always said I was a problem child. This must be exhibit A).

[880uth]

best played up load in the car

[321trauts]

Can't remember this at all, but love that they're all dressed for a part in dynasty!

[Hoddersrevenge]

#8 in 1986. #1 now maybe. Would make a fine change to the crap topping the uk charts now.

[TigerWalrus26980]

Number 8? Is that all???

[TomKay]

Shockingly low. Then again, their best song is If You Can't Stand The Heat - pure funk!

[KevCityboy]

Fantastic

[eagleharry63]

fantastisch en een lekker rytme...

[Pinkpaws1277]

Love it!!! Release it again! Fabulous.

[kirstenunicorn]

OK, a few things spring to mind:

1. Bobby is a stunner! Humana humana!

2. The drumming is heartrenching.

3. I bet my sister likes the men in tights (pinkpaws1277).

4. I bet the dancers' legs are killing them after that!

Check out Bobby and "Big Deal" - superb!

Rock on!

[aftkev]

this is one of the best records iv ever heard . if this was re released today it wud be a cert no 1 . the beat is amazin . i saw them live many years ago and iv seen hundreds of groups live . none came close to bucks fizz . videotheque u are a master !!!!!! keep postin and keep rockin my friend....

[forsk4u]

still got a soft spot for this song!

[EightiesForever]

Ah, 1986, what a great year. Mullets all over the place. Good song too.

[paddle9]

Should have been a Number One!! Like Culture Club's "Mistake #3" in that regard

[andrewelo]

Great song. And wow, wasn't Shelley Preston just gorgeous!

[BiggJazza]

yeah stunning, like a young burt reynolds

[Iceblooo]

Great pop song. Loved this and Heart of Stone by them.

[freacls]

thise is the 2nd time iv heard thise song [before my time] and i realy like it

[horseylady]

Excellent song - I've actually downloaded it and "land of make believe" from HMV onto my mp3 player!!

[dorugu]

nice vid but does it really end so abrupt?

1st time ive heard this song n its verry nice indeed.

[MacUserUK]

Unfortunately, Bucks Fizz last single and in my opinion they best. True defining 1980's pop! A forgotten classic. Thanks for the upload :o)

[katrice304]

i saw these live a couple of years bk well the new reformed bucks fizz. they r brill as fuk.

x

[allie755]

Video looks like cut price duran duran wild boys video, and two years too late.. dodgy haircuts lads.. the best song they did with that dreary shelley preston.

[EuroscepticUK]

DREARY??????? Are you having a laugh? She was and still is a total and utter babe! Get real!

[bosleyboy]

This song is fantastic!! There are some great remix versions on Bucks Fizz albums. Should have been a Number 1 record for them (Originally recorded by The Dooleys, but never released!!)

[runadrum]

There used to be a programme on Radio 1 on Friday evenings called Rosko's Round Table where guests reviewed that week's new releases. Occasionally (Emperor) Rosko would play one unannounced for the panel to guess who it was - and I remember this being played that way and no-one, and certainly not me, guessed that this was Bucks Fizz ! Should have been massive.

[jayne31]

really like the video , im a transformed bucks fizzer

[bennettsboy]

One of my favourite all time Fizz tracks - Love the video

[marilynewilcox]

What was that all about then?

poor old shelley, hope she made some money out of this

[marc1015]

ooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[babibluzeta]

one word - wow!!

[balduglybast]

Fantastic Video & song!

[Dutchfranca]

Fantastic song!
