Great lyrics, it IS a reference in the 80's, unconditionally! This kinda beat and style unsurpassed by the others, anyway... but this is my view...:-)
i like the song, but just hate the image. where is the bass player, why all the lip synching, poor effort on guitar etc. Obviously not a group you could watch live. Again, the bass makes this song, but where is it ???In the studio, like the rest of the musicians.Could knock that annoying birds hat off !!
@DruDixon777 lipsynching was normal back then. As for the "gay" jump suit, why is a jumpsuit that a straight person dislikes "gay" if it is displeasing? WTF. I am gay and I don't wear "unmanly" tacky jump suits. And neither do any of my gay friends. FYI, the 80s were full of tacky outfits that us in our 40s now regret ever wearing or considering cool. Get over it.
i have to agree the guy in the jumpsuit is a total throbstick. wish a "carrie" moment befell the twat & something came down from the gantry on top of him.
gr8 tune..gr8 artist's...funny how 28years on n' my teen kids r gettin' same haircuts n' fashion came back,the sounds of the 80's r used in 2day's music and they think it's all new...
Sorry u feel this way Binky, hmmmmm fub, I've been called several names but this is newy even for me. I've still got my jump suit if u wish to borrow it, but I lost the tie that night. Gee's mate, I'm 60 yo now, can't you forgive me for taking yor girl.
@CarlJMagrath i wouldnt say sorry! do you know what fub means? its "fat, useless/ugly, bastard" or thats what it meant when i was in the army! ask them for a picture of how they looked at that time and i`ll bet you `ll be able to laugh at their expense! all of us have dressed trendy at the time only to cringe a decade later lol!
one of my best favourites .... like I wore my hair (but not styled up) - so sweet, see their love .... to whom who does not know about band name ..... look up wikipedia
@cougher989 in them days they did a lot of lip synching on live performances on tv...........but this is one of the good bands from that era non the less.
love it
