[alfiebarboza]

THE MAGNUM

[Lmm150]

2:01 ooh yeah, ooh yeah... That guy rules

[emericaskate932]

Zoolander.

[lazarus611]

By far the best version of video of this song.

It captures the built up energy to the end when all mayhem erupts with the fans running on stage.

[altairtime]

This is the version with the most octane!

[pauldays]

I cant get over how much he looks like Niel Tennant (Pet Shop Boys)

[spoilson]

this is one of the most amazing videos! The guys have flashlights, fir gods sake! Back then all the special effects werent there

I love zhis becahse tgese guys ( gay or not) exude excjtement, sexuality and pump the audience up!! I thinknthe robe is ingenious.

A frenzy wuth flashlights!! It gets me pumping - maybe he isnt that tslented but he was certainly charismatic and had star quality! Wish hedvdine more

[tommieparch]

great version of a great song. live? no! when the chicks r jumpin on them & knockin the guitars, etc. around the song goes on the same. luv the video tho.

[Thegoldstarman]

[MrLawman10]

[topchick]

[Just4Meeeee]

GREAT song, GREAT VIDEO!!! This is the version I remember from MTV!

[knighttemplar99]

Relax is THE song of the 80's

[lacviet]

a truly mesmerizing beginning!! even now, it still stand the test of time :)

[Superstar7]

It was at Brixton Academy as I was there too :) It was snowing and so cold out!

Kitty > why wait from 6am when they were filiming in the early evening lol

[gymman1031]

@Superstar7 Was this concert in late 1984? Was it a full show with "Two Tribes" and "Welcome To The Pleasuredome", too.

[Superstar7]

@gymman1031 no it was a video shoot

[gymman1031]

@Superstar7 Was the people jumping up on stage planned?

[gymman1031]

@gymman1031 Was the black guy (not that it matters) really intending to pull people offstage, or was it just an act?

[Superstar7]

@gymman1031 if you look VERY closely at the sides of the stage there are lines of girls waiting to run on - we were picked from the crowd to do so and was told to run to any memeber of the band and kiss them or whatever and then run off the other side.!!

[Superstar7]

@Superstar7 if you look on the right side at 1min 26 sec you can see

[gymman1031]

@Superstar7 Really appreciate your info! I really like this video! I do know that the scene at the beginning, with Paul Rutherford smoking a cigarette and Holly Johnson riding in, was from the original video.

[Superstar7]

@gymman1031 yeah just to link it to the original video but this was used in the usa and the real one was too hard core for them lol

[gymman1031]

@Superstar7 Yep! I can definitely see the line at 1:26. I know there were five full-time members of the band. I think, though, that there were at least a couple non-members, including the Art Of Noise guy, on the stage. By the way, not that this matters, but, from what I was told, Holly and Paul are gay, but the guitarist, bassist, and drummer are straight.

[Superstar7]

@gymman1031 yeah paul and holly are gay and the others are not and the other guy on guitar i think was marks cousin

[gymman1031]

@Superstar7 Hope you don't mind me asking all these questions. I just love talking 80's music. Did you ever get to see these guys live in concert? I heard they really put on good shows. The 80's had so many British bands who were huge in England but only had one or two hits in my country, the USA. In the USA, "Relax" was a one-hit-wonder. Some other bands that were huge in England but one-hit-wonders in the USA were Scritti Politti, Johnny Hates Jazz, Madness, and Modern English.

[JDSquire]

CLASSIC 80's and a CLASSIC video!
