[Lusitanus]

[SonofaBeach2]

Gosh I miss the days which were showered with such music.....

[BirgitBettina]

I love his hair! He looks so sweet!!!

[aagtp20]

I always wished that I looked like him back in the 80's. But I didn't have enough hair for that kind of hairdo. He was an 80's style icon then.

[drylaundry]

ya ?? how about Nick Rhodes man ?

[Andrewkeh]

At 2:10 he looks like a wild boy!!!!!

[mongleandspesh]

[TheRebel2007]

Absolutely nothing like Foghat's "Wide Boy,""Five feet from shoulder to shoulder/ and four feet from the ground!..."

[decomposedpunk]

lol actually its "6 fix feet from shoulder to shoulder/ Five feet from the ground"

[TheRebel2007]

Right...I knew that. Just testing - LOL!

[oooowwwwdddd]

I'm not gay but I love Nik!

So under rated here in the US. I was born in 88 but my parents liked him and said he never got the recognition he deserved.

WHY NOT????

His song "wouldn't it be good" is like my soul speaking.

I couldn't have said it better the way I feel sometimes, a lot of times.

Nik, that song! Nik, you're great!

I just heard Wide Boy it's AMAZING!

Love U dude!

[LetsBurnHoles]

Yeah man, same scenario here. I was born in 1986. It's a shame that he is so UNKNOWN here in the USA. I here Wouldn't It Be Good from time to time, but thats it.

[dahr41]

@oooowwwwdddd

Respect!

[prisoner810]

it has been very difficult to get any of his music after the first 2 albums in australia...nik rips!!

[HalfPintHog]

Unfortunately it has been hard to get his albums here in the UK for some time too. I've actually bought from some Australian sellers recently. Best option is over the net.

[prisoner810]

yes, i was lucky and stumbled on 3 I didn't know about in Bali....he's always been so underated in oz... these days it's not the playing that i hold in esteem as much as the WRITING........J good luck with finding stuff...jc

[gentlehyeman]

I have his CD of greatest hits that I bought in London back in 1989.  I pampered it like a baby.

[pulao88]

[petrainternational]

he's so beatiful, so sexy ! i first saw him on tv when i was 10 in around 1985... now i am 35 and i still am a portuguese gay-queer bitch and i am still alive... lololo

[dietdictocrat]

i haven't heard this song in 10 years!

youtube is a great way to hear classic stuff from the 80s.

[tramvinicyus]

Lucky you Coal, I've bee waiting to meet him since I was 16 (I'm 40 now) I always loved him , I'll continue to love him for the rest of my life (Vinicio from Roma. Italy)

[electricdreams81]

I love this song and Nik Kershaw, I have his greatest hits album and I love every song very much. I think he's a lyrical genius, and a genius, and his songs are great.

[bushwacka1980]

The chorus reminds me of a day at the theme park - Summer 1985.

I caught sight of the family doctor with his own family eating ice cream and i thought "You bastard, why are you not out saving lives" He cut me a strange look and ran toward the ferris wheel.

[coalnotdoley]

I met him once in Nottingham in about 1985 - he was soooo tiny! But also sweet - offered me a beer from his very full fridge.

[aprilkershaw]

Good Job Gary! Thanks a bunch!

[crazykc]

I love it, thanks :-)
