@MultiThumpa no it's S.J , belle stars were made predominantly of former Bodysnatchers members , i had the biggest schoolboy crush on SJ real name Sarah-Jane Owen lol

[drucieluu]

[Lordandmasterpa]

Sorry, in my book they're still one-hit wonders, and this wasn't their one hit.

[citroenman]

I am sorry to say I had forgotten how good this was - thanks for posting it.

[optimumvalue9]

Fit fit fit MMmmm :o)

[pianoman74]

Holy moly...this girl in the white hat looks so ... GERMAN! :)) Dunno who she reminds me of...maybe Claudia Brucken from Propaganda? Or Beate Bartel from Malaria? Damn dunno, but she even speaks a bit "germish" =)

[pianoman74]

Oh yes the Belle Stars. "Iko Iko One-hit wonder", that's what I always hear about them. Like many others: heavily (and unjustifiedly) underrated. :-/

[TheGodParticle]

What, nails?

[zedrein18]

I used to bang to this song.

[LadyMacalla]

*sighs* and wishes she culd go back to the 80's just for one day to sample the buzz that the 80's produce...as well as the clothes....OMG hands up I owned a rara skirt...........that was the sign of the time........

[2bsom1]

i had a pair of leg warmers and pikie boots,and im male

[Twilight1964]

ahthe rara skirt... great times for the blokes wink wink lol

[thirdpirate]

Excellent tune! Man this is so damn infectious. They were on a great indie label Stiff Records too. Talented ladies - should have been as big as Bananarama really. This is as ace or better as anything the 'nanas did.

[Kingscote9]

Hey spurs rules, sj was great on the sax, but I loved miranda (the other sax)...so thats cool we dont have to duke it out.

[ryanspeed]

This was when MTV was cool. MTV friggin' sucks nowadays!!

[johnnycroat]

I think there Hot

[desertyellowvanman]

god they're ugly!!

[spursrule63]

There not ugly & i was in luv wiv S,J on the saxaphone...lol.

[karlvorderman]

Your remark is ugly. I bet you're a right oil painting, hiding behind your computer in your bedsit and making shitty comments about other people. You're not sad, lonely, bitter, and twisted by any chance?

[Rawlinson18]

God this takes me back and provokes feelings,.

[djillen]

this is a really great song

Kaj Kindvall is young looking in videobeat

Was it in 1984 perhaps.

I beleave that the radio hitlist show: "tracks" began, where videobeat ended.

Am I right?

[ultracox]

Hej! that sounds correct djillen. I have reable information but can't reach it now.

[woe73]

Bell Stars ROCK!!!! Thanx ultracox for postin this

[ultracox]

Yes, isn't it a sign of the times that we have been gifted with so many chicks band? as Kaj says ;)

[tigeyore]

I see know one has commented on this song so far..Being an 80's kid this was one of my alltime songs..I just love female bands that play thier own instruments and make infectious music at that..to bad they never caught on here in the states and made it real big.

[chameleonday]

It got some airplay in Canada, not a high rotation.
