  • The perfect mix between Japan and Bryan Ferry.

  • Seminal song from a sublime album; Primitive Man is one of those rare albums where every song is wonderful and they all seem connected in a way. A masterpiece.

  • just listen to the words, ok mavbe doesnt sound much 'unless your that little girl'

  • but it does remind one of Roxy's musics last album. Im stillstruck by this song.I need too.listen to a full album see if these guys had any talent.

  • Says alot about 80s music if this is one of the better tracks. Sorry but I just don`t hear anything even mildly pleasant.

  • God I hate the residue of condescending Anglican vampiree. ... I don't mean this song: it'sss grayte.

  • sort of bryan ferry roxy music ish

  • SULLE NOTE DI LITTLE GIRL AUGURO BUON ANNO 2012 A TUTTI!!!

  • Never watched the video, give up half way through the bull shit adds.

    Good to see Google fuck over another great site.

    Wont be back

  • great listening album, haven't heard it for a while to listen to it on youtube

  • Featuring Guy Pratt on bass who went on to much bigger and better things, e.g. Jimmy Page, Roxy Music, Robert Palmer, Pink Floyd and - bizarrely - stand up comedy with a bass guitar. Check it out on You Tube if you don't believe me.

  • Just a little Roxy influenced he said sarcasticly.

  • hey pedobear...hey pedobear.....who can you run to now? hey pedobear,where will you go? who can you turn to now? so why should if Chris handsen let you been. oh thats nothing new,the talk is all over NBC. And its no surprise,Chris Hansen hurts sometimes. Hey pedobear,hey pedobear....where will you go? who can you turn to now?

  • @TheUbercharge1

    WTF???

  • Definitely echoes of David Sylvian and Japan on this brilliant track. Fantastic production, too. A real 80's classic.

  • I liked the first two albums, Icehouse, Primative Man AKA Love In Motion. but after that it all went a bit dull with them. Also Iva Davies grew a mullet and thats a fashion crime here in the UK so i had to say goodbye to Icehouse.

  • 41 users have serious hearing problems

  • Pour emballer les filles....pas mieux!!!!lol

  • i seek pole shift survival group

  • timeless

    

  • This could almost be Bryan Ferry singing. Ice House were brilliant until Crazy and Electric Blue came along.

  • Icehouse my FAVE 80s band! Bloody awesome!

  • Good band from Australia I think.

  • After 20 years as a young icehouse

  • I thought this was Bryan Ferry/Roxy Music too. Great tune though.

  • He gets women

  • @oscartedmiles do the police know?

  • can't beat a real classic, take me back to the eighties. FANTASTIC......

  • when i first heard this back in the eighties i thought it was japan, i knew it wasnt roxy.

  • @TheEx3rgj I thought it was the Stranglers!

  • i always think its hugh cornwell singing this..........doh

  • brill,takes me back to my school days

  • i do like this song as it was from my time. The lyrics do sound a bit on the no no side though. 'Hey little girl' sounds a bit like something a bit on the wrong side of the law. If you know what i mean. It maybe a genuine song and it the beat etc are awesome but i dont rush to slam this on the pub jukebox!

  • ... when everything goes wrong, sometimes it makes nothings... >make my Day, **great**

  • Красиво и тонко.

    Нашёл эту песню в ютьюбе по запомнившимся в детстве словам припева

  • This is a great video - wonderful memories.

  • i love it!!!

  • I dedicate this song to my cuz Mina...

  • Comment removed

  • remember hearing this on an old tape of misc stuff,thought it was bryan ferry!,,one of them tracks that kinda of stays with you,,its on my Mp3:)

  • another brilliant record from my old favourites and you can dance to it ,great voice

  • The most classic and beautiful song of the 80,s And I was a punk! and they were Austrialian, or was it the other way round?it was a long time ago!! still gives me goose pimples on the neck when i hear this track

  • good song an the music is great to dance to. xxx

  • Brilliant track. :D

  • Brilliant track from jan/feb 1983, takes me right back to where I was at the time at a happier stage in life. Early eighties produced some of the greatest tracks from the past 40 years in my humble opinion!

  • Comment removed

  • The first time ive heard this... I like it!

  • Cracking track.

  • Comment removed

  • ESTA MÚSICA FAZ-ME RETROCEDER AOS MARAVILHOSOS ANOS 80,,,,,,,FANTÁSTICO.

  • wonderful

  • Yeah, it is very Roxy Music innit?

  • Definitely very Roxyish! I believe I first heard this on "Rock Over London" in 1983.

  • @chewybunz or early 80s bowie

    

  • @lusty140 Hmm...perhaps a hint of "China Girl", which, coincidentally, was released the same year.

  • Still one of the coolest and most elegant pop songs.

  • Iva is sexy and still is now

  • fab song, and Iva is just so handsome!

  • Just two songs can make me stop whatever I'm doing, lose my breath and freeze: this, and Split Enz's Poor Boy. Captivating.

  • i think brian eno was in the production...this explains much

  • i thoght this was bryan ferry

  • It does sound like Roxy Music - mainly the guitar which sounds like Phil Manzanera. Nothing wrong with that though.

  • he looks different without that hideous mullet lol

  • mitico tema,muy bueno!

  • Hey, little girl

    where will you hide

    who can you run to now

    Hey, little girl

    where will you go

    who can you turn to now

  • Definitley one of the best songs of the 80s.

  • seulement un reve

  • @boneyboyco darn :( lmao

  • Just wonderful! :-)

  • I had this as a single when I was a teenager :D

  • KENZY GIRL, THE FAIR ONE, THE WARRIOR, NAMASTE

  • I love this video. It's too bad that it got ripped off for the movie THE BLACK SWAN

  • Nice video clip and song from 80s!!!

  • I can remember the first time I heard this in 1983 and I thought it was Roxy Music aka Bryan Ferry. Great track and very iconic of the 80;s.

  • @brigham600 hear where you are coming from there.

  • @brigham600  It still reminds me more of David Sylvian's voice of Japan. Moreover, Steve Jansen performed on their best album, attracting loads of other musical influences from Europe. Iva incorporated them only so well! Icehouse rocks, but Japan/Sylvian rocked even better!!!!

  • @Maxiclaudi Sylvian still makes records

  • @emile235 This is a really funny remark, since I've been a fan of Japan/DS/JBK et al since 1981! I already bought a ticket to Sylvian's next gig in Eindhoven, where I've seen him play live 2 other times before. In 1982 I was such a huge fan, I even moved to London from The Netherlands to live around the corner from the Japan guys. Check out my playlists, they might be a bit of a mess, but as you will see, it's chock-a-block with their stuff, as well as YMO/Sakamoto etc.

  • @Maxiclaudi I clicked your playlist and nothing happpens

  • @brigham600 i thought it was roxy too! ha

  • i f*ckin; love this song

  • @vullnettota  me too

  • i hate people who copy top comments XD

  • Una pasada, me recuerda a muchas cosas ainssss!!!!!!!!!!

  • souvenir souvenir .................

  • awesome!

  • I remember a much slower version, too. He sounds a LOT like Bryan Ferry/ David Bowie. Thanks for the memories.

  • Sounds like Roxy Music!

  • atmospheric + japan-like...pulsating beat

  • todays youth have nothing but crap , todays lyrics are just enless repetitions of the word muitha f..er over and over ..next generation will have nothing at all !

  • very nice song and as if David Bowie style?

  • @kutluberk

    Bryan Ferry style.

  • Que propuesta tan interesante tenian estos pelaos en synth-pop... grettings from Mexico...

  • Inspired by Sylvian :) ... what a song

  • To hungryherbie ,whitbygothic and twin40worty .

    You have poor grammar and can't spell .

    Why say anything ?

  • @TheBlaxland Welcome to the 21st.century jesus man lighten up it's only utube not your grammer class

  • @TheBlaxland sorry I spelt grammar incorrectly I do apologise

  • I hate people who copy top comments

  • It's very obvious who the hero's where to this band but it's done well which is not a problem.....................

  • This is a classic its got to be wright up there with the best!!!!!!

  • i couldnt find this track on any of bryan ferrys records, i would of put money on it that he had sung it??? then tryed to find on youtube, and thats y. he didnt sing it it was ice house lol but its got his sort of style and recon he would of done an ace cover like jealous guy????

  • Hypnotic feel to the music - love it :)

  • @CrusaderBeach took the words out of my mouth. I could listen to this forever.

  • Yeah: 60s....70s....80s...that was an ascent in music that just had to come down.

    90s was the teetering retro brit-pop shit preempting a fall, and 2000's the complete inhumane toppling that is urban rap at ground zero. Who'd have soul?

  • Top choon 

  • Top tune from the 80's. Man of Colours was their next great work and what a work it was...

  • sentiment indescriptible

  • Sooo Bryan Ferry and Roxy Music but sooo good. Awesome tune.

  • the good old 80´s.best music ever.

  • He's definitely channeling Roxy Music lead singer Bryan Ferry in this song. :)

  • @davettalashley  no he is not!

  • @yamhead79 Do you even know what channeling is?

  • @davettalashley  oh iam CHANNELING you dont know about music.

  • @yamhead79 Then, Mr. Potato Head, you would be dead fucking wrong. Music is my LIFE.

    I've got a great ear for music and he definitely sounds like Bryan Ferry in this song. Now go put your pacifier back in your mouth, let your momma change your diaper and STFU.

  • @davettalashley well then your GREAT EAR is full of WAX!!!

  • 3W2hat happened to all tjhe cool girls we had

  • this band should of been much bigger,but is it me or doe's the singer sound like the singer in the band JAPAN,(remember them).

  • Ausgezeichnet!

  • @fearofablackjanet I did say 90% was great But your right about Pat Boone he was in the 10% bracket

  • you know that you've found a really good song when you can return to it time and again and it still sends a shiver down your spine each and every time you hit the play button........this is one of those songs.....still brilliant after all this time

  • @areyoujoking1 Definatly.  Me too

  • @areyoujoking1 yes thats so true, great track!!!

  • nice song

  • Definite heavy influence of Japan in the verse and Bryan Ferry in the Chorus but hey it's a good little song!

  • Comment removed

  • BRILLIANT 

  • UTTERLY FANSTASTIC, LOVE THIS SONG...........

  • Sometimei forget that there were time when the words "popular music" and "quality" managed to go together.

  • Reminds me of Bryan Ferry

  • first band i ever saw - supporting david bowie at milton keynes in july 83. still love this.

  • like IT.

  • fuckin amazing bit of music .

  • Who was the girl, pretty tidy !

  • @KG84C I think the girl is Iva's wife, she was a ballerina.

  • @webaroos Thanks

  • Viva le band anni 80.....le migliori!!!!!!!!

  • Incredible band.

    .....WHO CAN YOU TURN TO NOW?

  • available for mobile please

  • @ MrTheAlabam. Yeah, it was an interesting segment on his show. Powell usually played so good 45s. This is the one that I remember most.

  • What a stupid guy I am. I believed it to be from Ultravox. But Midge Ure sounds so much different

  • you cannot beat the fantastic music of the 80's.

  • Love IceHouse I grew up with them (and INXS etc......) mid 80's music

  • Love IceHouse I grew up with them (and INXS etc......)

  • Top quality. Very few could get any better than this. Iva Davies must be proud of his Icehouse.

  • I could eat a real of audio tape and PUKE a better track than 90% of the garbage that's played on the radio today. Thank GOD we're able to see and hear what REAL music and real creativity were like, thanks to videos and sites like YouTube. The '80's had so much more of both than today, it's not even comparable. This song is so amazingly cool it's unreal!

  • Icehouse rock! Their Man Of Colours album was the 1st album I ever bought! On cassette, I listened to it so much I wore it out!!!

  • This was the song that got me into Icehouse. Peter Powell (I think) played it as part of the 5 45s at 5:45 segment (he would select five new singles to play at 5:45 each day). Execellent.

  • @m0v13knut that was a good link as singles were known as 45,s. nice.

  • classic forgotten song from the eighties - such a haunting melody - havnt heard this is years - the excellent icehouse back in 1983 hard to believe it was so long ago - but still a timeless song compared to most songs out just now - it has stood the test of time & is still as fresh as the day it was made & also a classic video to go with it in classic 80's style....

  • Go the 80's!!

    Icehouse and Iva Davies, one of the good things to come out of them.

  • 29 of those that disliked took a wrong somewhere looking for Justin Bieber and ended up here.

    If you dont like this, why did you watch it?

    Forever Loving Icehouse <3

  • im so glad to know im not the only one that thinks today's music is just utter shit with hoes wearing nothing and guys wearing big ass glasses that are bigger then my first t.v! love to ice house!

  • There's great music in all decades - you're just not looking hard enough if you disagree.

  • i hate people who copy top comments...

  • @ihatesheeps you hate sheeps, but they give you wool. or do you mean you hate blind followers who don't question? you hate people who copy top comments, but they are just sheeps. or do you mean you hate it when people copy top comments? too much hatred going on.... "live and let live" (or are you gonna say i also copied this phrase? as long as it has quotes, it's totally cool.... ) share all the wisdom you can, it's part of life.

  • @ihatesheeps

    I also hate people who copy top comments. :)

  • @ihatesheeps so what about you ,,,lol

  • Every decade has great music and crap music

    Todays music is no different

  • @Cruzycuzz your right about every decade has good and bad music EXCEPT the 60's had 90% great music

    and the 00's had 90% crap music

  • @hungryherbie Yes, and today it's only crap:)

  • @hungryherbie the 00's did have good music, it just wasn't on the radio

  • @hungryherbie you can only choose one decade..... and that decade should be the 80's

  • @chrisdavid4026 come on the 80's had 85% great music but the 60's had 90% that's when modern music started The Beatles,stones..elvis...dylan.­...the who....them....wilson pickett...otis redding....jimmy hendrix....

    james brown....temptations....the kinks...roy orbison...pink floyd.....chuck berry.....booker t.......spencer davis..

    now that is just a small sample of bands and solo artists who changed the music world for good cheers herbie

  • @hungryherbie

    But with more music than ever being released today,,, 10% good music is still a hell of a lot of music! :D

  • @InnuendoXP you forgot to mention that 90% is a hell of a lot of crap music that came out in the 00's that is :D

    cheers herbie

  • @hungryherbie

    hey if we can ignore 90% of the world population living below first world standards and not giving a crap about our music then I'm pretty sure you can bury yourself in the 10% of good stuff :)

  • @InnuendoXP what an explanation your gone crazy man ..were talking about records/dvd's etc.in the 00's not the world population and all it's problems ..so let me say again the 00's had only 10% good music and 90% crap music that's all I'm saying

  • @hungryherbie

    and I'll I'm saying is 10% is still a hell of a lot of good music
