I got rid of my leather garments 'cause it seems if you're not a biker it's associated with gay subculture. I do wear tanks a lot and seems like that's gay also.
It was banned because it was to explicit. Back in the 80s sex was only hinted at in songs not so much in videos. For example the bananas the condoms on the videos, the positions. I remember seeing this video twice on Mtv and then it was gone.
Hello Youtube! I'm sure you get this a lot, but I'm a 16 year old male singer-songwriter with a mission. I want to be a professional singer and only you can help me achieve that goal. I have written two songs that you may be interested in "Sup" and "Puzzlebox". Please could you take the time to listen, comment and rate. It doesn't matter whether you love it or hate it, I just need some advice. If you're into acepellas and ballads then this is for you! Thank you!
This video (and the 'activities' going on in it, lol!) reminds me of Trip Khalef's interview about Freddie Mercury's house parties, for the 'Untold Story' documentary... I quote: "The parties really scared the neighbours....we were okay, I could handle it....I'm used to seeing my grandmother crawl up my leg with a knife in her teeth....!" and...
"That has got to be the worst thing I have ever been to...I'm probably gonna go to hell for that!"
@Grabenpril Sadly, like Libya, change in your country only comes with bloodshed - as so many other things in the Middle East. A friend of mine is presently living in Oman - she says its a right old goatshaggers hole ;-0)
@sapphire22011 Yes i think you are right. In Iran ther is a wisdom:" If an egg breaks from outside a life will be destroyed. But if the egg is broken from inside a life will be born." A change is only usefull from inside and that will happen. They will not control us to eternity, this is not possible. The Iranian people are very intelligent, much more than the rulers in Iran are, the Isalmic republic will fall.
from which country do you come from, or where do yo live?
I think you are a litte bit confused my dear ;-) The people in Iran have another sarrows than this stupid nuke bomb ;-) 95% of Iranians hate this islamic republic. Read some good books about Iran and make sure that you get contact with some Iranians there you are and you will see. The end of the iranian government is near, very near :-) I promise :-D
Babe, I respect the Islamic religion, but I don't agree with your countrys regime and in particular the way they treat women. So when are u lot gonna nuke us all LOL?!!
I'm from 80's and didnt know this song was about the gay lifestyle. It didnt bother me back then, and it still doesnt. This song is an icon from that generation and I still enjoy it. Nice upload, thanks.
This song exhibits the crass-hedonism of the early-mid 80s, similar to Michel Brown's "So Many Men, So Little Time", during an era when gay men died like flies from ARC(AIDS Related Complex).
The of the videos banned on the show in Canada "Too Much for much" only I think Happiness in Slavery I could see why" Still its a great piece of film.
I still love this song,I dont care if the main singer died of AIDS. He had a good voice,and I betcha he knew this song was gonna blow up and be etched in the fabric of America music forever.
@sapphire22011 Very easy, I shit in the mouth of ayatollahs, Ahmadinejad and and the rest of this islamic bullshit-team :-) With a mouth full of shit they can´t say anything...
@mrsolofeo Who cares! What an awesome song. I'm gay and it captures everything about being gay and guess what it even makes straight men and women dance!
@v07m9s It's called interjecting some humor--the girl is obviously transgender or cross-dresser--and notice that I call her a girl because that's how she comes across to me.
I'm not putting her or gays down. I have gay friends and I tell them that they are just closeted heterosexuals--and they appreciate the humor. People have called me gay because I'm thin, wear tight clothes and am obsessed with my looks--so I've gotten some anti-gay blow-back myself. But humor does get us all through the day.
I regret looking at this video. I saw the fat guy and well......... I'm gonna have nightmares now thanks to this video..............ugh the fat guy had a black 8===D!!!! EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!! SO TRUAMATIZING!!!(Did I spell that right?)
I saw this on Night Flight. Then this version was gone. Come to find out, as the story goes, a Censor came home and found his kids watching this video. They were laughing like drains. The next thing you know, it is banned. There are two other version, the one with the lead singer in the smoke and the other from a movie.
wow that vid is very gay. I didn't relive you could be that queer in the 80's....shit and I thought the 80's were actually cool.
