In the 80s, there was no Internet, only MTV. Gay people would be thrilled to see hints of gay identity in music videos. They made us feel less alone and unrepresented. DAF were an iconic band for gays who were into the Alternative music scene. Only thing that sucks about this video is that they had to throw in a dancing girl to fool the straight people so that this video would get airtime.
@knowgood1 daf was and is not gay. i feel good for you feeling good for a suposingly gay song , but i like daf just the way they were or are,,,just straight electronic instigators
@333Chrome, I generally don't engage in argument on the Internet. As they say, "Arguing on the Internet is like running in the Special Olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded." But, you addressed me directly so I'm answering. See the Youtube video titled "Gabi Delgado Polylux Portrait 2003" where Gabi talks about being gay. It's in German but there is some English transcription. It's a bit astonishing you cannot see how lovingly gay they are in their videos. Cheers!
@knowgood1 damit knowgood, this gabi fellow IS a little filthy, you are right. by the way i talk 100% german and this is an eyeopener for me.thank mate, but then again, beeing an 80ties teenager myself in germany i can also tell you that sexual liberties in those days somehow belonged into the picture for a music avantgardist like gabi. i think i leave it there, cheers

@vasp99 I just don't get it, why would you care so much about their sex lives? Sorry, but that's just weird and voyeuristic, but if you're into that, I guess that's okay then.
@pontello3 I think it's slightly offensive to assume all gay men like the same crap-shit. I'm gay and I typically lean more towards death-rock/goth-rock, and a lot of the early New Wave/Synthpop acts such as Gary Numan and Oingo Boingo. Your sexuality has nothing to do with the music you enjoy.
maybe i express myself badly,i was just kind of ,well ,ironic ! when i was saw that DAf for what i know don't fit in the typical gay-iconS clichè..but off course is all about clichè! everyone, doesn't matter if they're gay or not, is free to listen for mozart or gaga
i was only sort of kiddin when i saw posts in wich they were sayng that DAF was gay music (do exist gay music?..well maybe sometimes) but i agree with u let's go beyond stereotypes!
So sexy when they were young. Their tracks are minimalist to the extreme.They have vocal lines that eschew any melodic nicety .The harshest electronic sounds. I love this.Never heard this song in English before. Did they cater to a gay crowd because in America it was played only in the punk venues. I don't think many gays knew their work.
This is probably DAF's campest, cheesiest song, and considering how much I love everything that came before this which couldn't be much more different, I should hate this.
And indeed, DAF were the ones who have inspired soooo many bands to come. Listen to their back catalogue, the new Best of is out!! What a band, way ahead of their time! Alles IST GUT!!!
.....As is Pete Burns, doen't make him any less gay. Wonder if you being Italian with your pathethic masculine poseur attitude has anything to do with your post.
this is the best daf track ever for me. if you wanted to be supercool and impress your friends...you'd drop this killer bassline...light years ahead of their time...i remember searching for this for weeks on foot and in the rain...to find the 12....the perfect beat...this absolute stone killer of a b-line!!! respect to whp posted this and to g+r (love forever). listen to this LOUD to get the full bass quake...used to make 17 year olds feel scared and euphoric.
Are you friggin kidding me..sound like wham?! They sounded and acted gay, DAF were original and way ahead of their time! Gorl and Gabi had great voices and digital experience to make them sound unique and great! I wish more German bands followed them!
well, it was belgiums and english bands which follow them.. cought cought.. Front 242 .. cought cought... Depeche Mode.. cought cought... Nitzer Ebb... cought cought.
first lyric is "let's play, let's play, let's play, let's gay"
