lol

[IHeartGirlsAloud]

Love This Song!

[malachite141]

abc was one of the best bands of that era and still are kicking butt

[EscapeNewJersey]

ABC is a class act! The lead singer is a very nice man in real life.

[bigbombob]

wttf

[molonlave2010]

Never heard of this one, it's pretty nice. I knew ABC is a good band.

[naturaltoby]

All the dudes I hung out with were into hard rock and metal.....I decided to branch out and experience what was known as "New Wave".......I am still thankful.

[RXR4rr]

I wish These guys would all get back together. ABC is surely missed.

[BrightWave]

This is another epic song by ABC. They are always great.

[TheCoolHair]

matisyahu's is much better XD

[Megadeth4242]

matis didn't even cover this song, the lyrics are totally different, he just had the same song name

[GNR1fan]

of course bob malrey is amazing. AND SHUT THE FUCK UP. MATISYAHU DOSNT SUCK! He is amazing and influencial. so fuckyou.

[ellennon04]

[LCbabe13]

[mikeyirish1967]

Mark White is/was supremely on FIRE gorgeous. Or am I the only person who thinks this?

[pmsan29]

fantastic smoothed out production on this one...ABC usually never dissapoints.

[onebasshit]

damn this is smooth...

[TheKnightsofOrder]

WHHHAT THE HELL LOL

[neumannknight]

what the fuck just happened and how can i get that time back?

[greyguy2]

LOL WTF

[aramanth]

Great Video! The rotating throne, the velvet-clad pouty queens, the Hollywood Hills, and a crumbled monarchy. Pity they had to airbrush off the Chanel logo on Mark's guitar due to legal probs!

[Atlantikonrad]

Pop si ma raffinato ,bel video anche

[geeznuts123]

Thats not Matisyahu???

[viper306]

Uno dei migliori gruppi dei favolosi anni 80'.

[OrsoVarese]

Veramente, compatriota. E a me ricorda i miei 25 anni... :-)

[arekusu1furansujin]

Hummm Tony Ward YUMMIE !!!!!!!!

Still looking good even if he's already in his 40's!

[Ghost77Riders]

I like this music! Yes, go guys! SECRERT CODE 33 LTD Alberta Canada. Designer t-shirts and custom made candy coming your way very soon!

[ballerific420]

The 80's is the best era hands down 2 thumbs up 10 /10 5 stars GIVE THE 80'S A FUKN MEDAL ALREADY! Now a days music is all greedy and about the same sht looped over and over..

[AlpineEastern]

...auf eigene Rechnung laufen.

[chris99103]

masterpiece

[AlpineEastern]

WHO could talk RAP in this fine place? This was a romantic movement all the way.

Different district, different values, different people, and most definitely a different STRATAGY.

[coolmasterskincare]

Rap sucks.

[cuzanq]

WE KNOW!

[monroeboy80]

Great video with L.A. Skyline and the guy from Madonna's Cherish video is in it which makes it even better.

[3DPeter]

cheers to that iveco321

[3DPeter]

i wish i could go back to the 80's with a time machine and destroy the machine when i get there because i would never ever come back to the present that realy sucks if you ask me. In those days music was real and it was al about the music and music only because we didn't give a shit how the artist looked.

Those artist could realy play instruments

and write good songs and thats a big difference from today's artist who only can wiggle their ass and tits to compensate their bad singing quality.

[iveco321]

i know how you feel, i was fortunate to be a club deejay during the 80's, it was a fantastic time, we did'nt get ripped off with crap music or extortionate beer prices. it was purely about fun, fun and more fun. now i know what my dad felt when he looked back on the 60;s. all we can do is remember and be thankful for such good teenage years

[HookendHammer]

I hear you both and share your pain! , a crew of my mate and i do the Butlins (yes i know don't start) 80'S weekend and for three days i have 3DPeter time machine and i am happy again but not as thin . whats more Martin Fry/ABC are playing this year could it get any better , sadly i have seen him a few time of late and his voice is on the way out,

[3DPeter]

@ iveco

amen to that.

[RSLICKER]

right on i agree i was 16 in 1980 so the 80s were my going out time loved them and i still have all the clothes in my loft , bring them back i would love to put those white trousers and matching vest back on

[3DPeter]

@ RSLICKER

don't tell me that you still weigh the same when you were 16 and stopped growing?

[RSLICKER]

hey im not saying they would fit but id try and squeeze into them for a laugh

[kanezona]

Great song! The video is very late 80's L.A.. It's like going back in time. The album that this song came from is one of their VERY best if you ask me. Very bittersweet. Class of '85!

[whyiflipthis]

hahahaha, this shit cant be serious

[1987BESTYEAR]

Classic stuff ;-)

[sleepingfelix]

great song from a great group. one of the best pop songs of the 80's.

[Luca85italy]

The ONLY good thing of this video is the Hollywood's places and Tony Ward apparition!

[svenroser]

I always loved ABC´s music a lot.They are just as important to British pop as anything else,but their videos.....Aauwch...

[aramanth]

ABC joked in an interview during this period that they wanted to sponsored by Chanel.

Mark White emblazened his black guitar with the Chanel logo. Due to legal action, the CC logo had to be airbrushed out in all videos and photos.

Only one photo currently exists that shows the logo. The cover of a remix CD called "ABC 2". Just a trivial tasty tidbit about ABC!

[tippsi106]

absolut cool song.i wish i could swim back to the eighties.

[carzyyouth27]

i realy like all of abc's music and this song realy good

[curlyfry44]

Martin Fry and actor John Cusack look alike

[peppermintgarage]

King without a woman, baby...

I love Martin Fry!

[shazam99]

Truly amazing song by ABC - sadly not a massive hit, but real, real class...which you just don't get these days

[gorman17d]

no doubt..great song!!!

[bond0023]

F@*&ing funky!  Great song.

[robberttoe]

who is she i like her

[rayva1]

There was one female singer who joined this group in '85 who went by the name Eden (aka Fiona-Russell Powell). However, this video was from '87, so I'm not sure if that was the same female vocalist in this video.

[MisterKamikazi]

I believe it's Tessa Niles doing backing vocals, at least on the album version of this song.

[shazam99]

Tess did the BV's on the album version, but for some reason they got some Italian girl in to do a new vocal for the single...I like both...

[sappronrat27a]

That woman is Mrs Fry . Martin is my my old neighbour from Manor council estate in Sheffield.

[shazam99]

I can assure you it's not lol

[DocOfAreaology]

No. No that is not Mrs. Fry.

[Szymek034]

super kawałek

[endymionsfate]

You need to hear the 12 inch version, the woman's singing part is a lot better; they definitely utilized a much better singer.

[retrosound72]

Awesome song!

[SAT9terminus]

Indeed a wife is the crown of her husband, but if he doesn't treasure or know what he has ...

~He D'LOSER

[katweasel]

excellent

[newromantic85]

bellissima....ma c avete fatto caso ke la ragazza del video somiglia a laura chiatti?

[jawbroke5150]

DID YOU GUYS SEE THE SAME VIDEO?

[Davemonzon]

I really love the 80s.

[jakobfrederik]

The eighties was one big arrogant pose, so arrogant and selfish, but I loved it.

[bigpoluka]

Of course istory repeats itself, like today, too bad they did it all worng. When we areound then we had these guys andothers that had intelligent lyrics and the ability to orchestrate it all.

[JAZZTYPE]

This is a slick sound with great vocals (of course). M. Fry does it again. The guy is great! I miss the crazy clothes we wore back then. Jazztype

[mrdjjames]

Love ABC! This is classic 80's and nay to the haters! Fans still Love Martin Fry!

[Sinco77]

excellent example of a perfect sophisticated pop song

[DavidGYoung]

Great song, but I'm definitely too old for pop videos now.

[hedislim]

Great song and great video. ABC rock

[george6111]

1st time i have ever heard this song :D its great cheers A love martin Fry man such a great singer

[paulm99]

try and track down ABC - Poison Arrow (US Jaxx remix), it a superb version of one of their biggest hits

[lozza002]

one of my all time fav abc songs

[konemusa]

Great song! This time that song was made, house music was a big thing and this song 12`version based by housebeat.Both version, I have heard are just the best beat of Abc`s history!

[rush233q]

great song also a hit back in the 80's

[therezabizarre]

AVERAGE FROM A BRITISH PERSPECTIVE.

[tinto972]

Goood cast!

[bjb8847656]

This is in my opinion ABCs best recording - super in every respect - great lyrics

[PLT694]

sigfired and roy should do this song

[rallyingtcp]

why was this not a hit ?

Ian

[DerVeet]

Are you kidding? This was #1 hit on Pangndo (island outside of Borneo)for over a year. I remember on the days when we had spare electricity from our generator we would play the shortwave radio and always hear this song.

[rayva1]

Pangndo Island? Obviously this hit never hit the international music market then. lol...
