  • aww this reminds me of "that one girl who got away " and a wonderful day spent in cwmbran .love forever nicola xx

  • I have this one on my mp3 when I´m jogging:-) Takes me back:-)

  • 0:34 "Laura Palmer" (Twin Peaks)??? .-)

  • Love this song but I've got to admit this has got be one of the worst videos of the 80s and this is coming from someone that usuually won't hear a bad word said about the 80s.

  • This track has aged really well, still sounds incredibly fresh. Not so much the video.

  • this video is fun yet dark...very cool. Great music from Nik and his studio musicians. The only thing good about today's music is that it only makes music of yesterday look better and be more appreciated.

  • this are the eighties.

    amazing !

  • Such a wonderful musician and songwriter. I couldn't get enough of Nik in the 80s. Thanks for posting!

  • the 80's was a magic decade...this is good music, today all music to the rubbish.

  • I'm a metalhaead, but still loved all the 80's pop I grew up with. Human Racing was an amazing album, listen to the fretless bass on "Faces" one of my faves; loved Howard Jones as well :)

  • love the 80s kitsch video and imaginative creativity involved with minimal budgeting ,unlike the crap , dull , insipid expensive videos today.

  • This song inspired me to buy my first ever album - Human Racing of course!

  • This video puts me in mind of something the Pet Shop Boys would have done at the time......very Suburbia in its tone.

  • always loved this song ...brill memories of school days gone xxx classic 80s electro xxxlove itxxxxxx

  • good song but the video is terrible!! I love the 80s electronic sounds but some videos at the time were just killers for the music.

  • I still got the single, and it's like fresh from the store.

    Sigh... How do i miss the good old days now.

  • great song!

  • This is the music I grew up with, you don't hear it on the radio these days.

  • what's the sound @ 0:20 reminding me ? plz help, I cannot sleep til' I find out :/ :D

  • Nik is so under rated i thought his songs were so catchy he wrote the one and only for chesney hawkes

  • I so love Nick

    Believe it or not I'm only 13 years old

  • My favourite from Nik :D

  • 0:20 - 0:27 what a waste xD still luving the song!!!

  • god the memories nice times

  • I feel like the guy who's the subject of the song, more often than I care to admit. LOL

  • unless a song sounds like this, it should be banned.

  • @powergod123 Then you have to ban most of the videos on YouTube.

  • @bardo0007 soooo true.

  • Isn't that Helga from Allo Allo as nurse in that vid

  • my teeange idol

  • nice hairstyle

  • Days when grandma and grandpa could still move like that :)

  • great song

  • I love seeing the old biddes dance!

  • Take the piss anybody?

  • I love the naivity ot some of these 80s vids; they have a really home-made, under-produced look about them, not stylised and airbrushed to infinity. As for the song, this was always my favourite Nik Kershaw song - you can almost hear early techno in this stuff and the likes of Howard Jones, Gary Numan . Real talent - these guys know the bones of music and how it 'works'.

  • One of my 1st ever 7"s that i bought ... Great Synth Pop

  • Why was this not a hit?

  • @kirk75248

    Caus' totally eaten alive by the titles "the riddle" and "wouldn't it be good" on the same album.

  • @rastakuere The Riddle wasn't on the same album :s

  • Ive always liked this song, it's a great anthem for blokes, much better than ''Get your tits out for the lads'' lol.

  • the first record i ever bought too , used to love him , i was know as nik kershaws pin stripped trousers lol oh godddddddd the memories

  • .....~and so they danced,,, inside his head..#

  • I loved Nik and bought his first three albums but had completely forgotten this song. It's not especially commercial but totally original. He was ahead of his time, whatever that menas. Love it!!

  • How come 25-years ago music sounded more modern than now?

  • Barrister dude @ :48 dances better than some people I know, LOL :-)

  • Reminds me of my time working in London in the 80's. Good times!

  • remember having the 4 video vhs he released with the album- wish i'd kept it!

  • nik has funny ideas for the vids. just look at the fiasco at his table lol. but hey i realy like his songs! He should be more popular

  • Why are you speaking in a present tense? This was singing this song over 25 years ago.

  • Went to hear Nik in February at Vaerket in Randers, where he did an acustic concert - only Nik and his guitar (ohh - and his "orchestra"´... *LOL*). He was amazing!! He did an acoustic version of this song.. the waltzing Dancing Girls!! Very beautiful!!  If he is on tour on his own, go hear him!!

  • Dreamboy!!!

  • brilliant song, way ahead of its time

  • Stunning track... lifts the mood... not just 80's nostalgia

  • He's sooo hot!!! >:)
