  • Also womem had normal eye brows :) 80's was good

  • Good song

  • I always thought this song was pretty average. Never liked Mondo Rock.

  • theme song for "leavers" back in the 80's....

  • Ross Wilson..aussie music legend!

  • Your comments are all great! There's hope yet! I was born in the 70s, so I grew up with all this. But of course I took it for granted back then. I really appreciate it now though! Toffeone: Best comment ever! :)

  • im born 1996, i wish i wass born 1971 to grow up when this awesome music came out :(

  • I immediately clamp my legs together when I hear this song, lest I jump on the first guy I see.

  • @shaiwilliams i feel the same way!!!!! LOL!!!!!

  •  Maroubra beach?

  • @AUMade looks like it

  • Ross Wilson has an AMAZING voice!!! He totes needs a beard though haha

  • I love music from the 60s,70s and 80s. But I'm not going to jump on the bandwagon of criticizing music from today just for some thumbs up. Most generations will think the one previous had ill taste in music. Just let people have their own tastes I say

  • I'm from the year 2080, and im still listening to this.

  • These were the days.....

  • A classic Aussie sound, surely owes more than a tip to Bobby Goldsboro's 'Summer, The First Time"...

  • For ll those who lived wild when this was a hit where has all the good times gone if people only knew how amazing it was to live in the eighties

    J

  • This is a hot rock sexy saucey song with the ultimate groovey guitar sound!!! Whoa wawhooo yahooo makes me want to party and dance and get some romance!

  • who was the girl .....looks familiar?

  • This song reminds me of my youth in the 80s. Getting smashed on grog at the beer garden, having bbqs .... wearing stubby shorts, growing a mullet hair cut .... "business at the front - party at the back" ....... going around with a boom box on my shoulders ....... eating prawns and drinking crownies, taking life one day at a time.

  • the soundtrack of my first sexlife,( with the sandman and couger girl sam kenneally,) I scored the gold for My 1st.. every dude wanted her. yeagh love U mondo Rock!!

  • trekking around sydney most weekends going to their gigs, are memories will cherish forever

  • pure 80's rock!

  • Brilliant!!! Im caught in a time warp, please take me back to when music was pure, heartfelt and just really good :D

  • why are they planning to do it in broad daylight with a bunch of creepy guys trailing them in the distance?

  • still the best song on the face on the planet, stuff jessica mauboy and black eyed peas etc.

  • I can't find any other words than just... AWESOME.

  • I blame my parents for giving birth to me in the 90's.....

  • @Caseytehspacey93 ME TOO! :(

  • @Caseytehspacey93 born in the 60s would be me want... here in Auz!

  • @Caseytehspacey93 Same I should have been born in 1970 so i would have been a teenager in the 80's.

  • always luved this song. the teenage memories just come flooding back. cant erase the smile from my face every time i hear this song. and i cant really explain it either

  • wanna hear a joke?......2011 music

  • @Toffeone all kind of music its good, you're stucked in the past

  • @Toffeone Pretty much anything after the 90's. Heck, most of the crap they smear across the air since the mid 90's has been exactly that.

  • @Toffeone IT SUX ASS. HAHAHAHAHA

  • @Toffeone i'm 21.. an i apologize for my generations music.

  • OMG IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG

  • Where are they now when we need them, the black rap shit today oh hell

  • =)

  • Which Beach was this video clip filmed? I lived in Coogee in those days but it doesn't look like that one. Can anyone tell me?????

  • Really great song and a great reflection of those times in the 80s. If you think that would have been a good time to grow up, you should have a look at what was around in the 50s 60s &70s.

    On this site check out Dave Warner's from the Suburbs, specifically Suburban Boy, Convict Streak and especially Mug's Game. Dave was punk when Sid Vicious was only a gleam in his father's eyes. ;-)

  • Awesome...If only time travel could take me back

  • Brings back great memories of long warm days wandering around the Katoomba region of the Blue mountains with my bucket and shammy in early 84 - absolutely brilliant song, unfortunately totally by-passed here in the UK..

  • I remember all the radio stations not playing this song due to its sexual connotations and apparent under age sex...still, I love the melody in this track.

  • @5150VanAlien Well, a few must have been playing it in 1984 in Sydney otherwise I'd never have heard it.

  • @slaphaddalztick Don't take it literally!! However, the song was subjected to radio censorship at the time. Thankfully, the demand it generated pressured the radio stations to play it...and aren't we all thankful for that.

  • @5150VanAlien sure are!

  • One of the best songs ever made.

  • I don't really like it....it sounds too much like Journey or other radio rock bands of the time.

    Australian Crawl's "Downhearted" sounds a bit radio-ish too, but better than this.

  • @AndrewNewZealand Lucky you are from new zealand or I would take offence to that haha

  • OMG. He sat on the stairs and watched the kids have SEX.*gasp*

  • He was cool but poor now a filthy rich Wiggle

  • Best song ever composed!!!

  • This song describes the essence of a teengers innocence lost!! It is just a awesome song that is honest!

  • Not gonna lie, the singer is sexy (even though he's probably old enough to be my dad by now) and the girl is beautiful. She looks like a Barbie!

    I just came across this song for the first time, I've never even heard of the Rick Springfield cover. I really like this!

  • Who is the girl? She's beautiful.

  • World class.

  • Shit i was on those steps last week, having a coffee telling a work mate,,,shit we doing the Mondo Rock.....and BTW shes rather HOT

  • 100% maroubra beach......

  • its Maroubra beach 100%

  • This clip looks like it was filmed at Maroubra Beach (Sydney, NSW) ?????

  • @Kathy0851 It looks like it I think

  • It's clear that 9 people have never got laid by a M.I.L.F before

  • @mrnargileh How in anyway is this about Milfs? It's clearly about a teenage girl, young love kinda stuff.

  • @mrnargileh got nothing to do with m.i.l.f's

  • @mrnargileh How is this about a MILF .... Listen to the bloody words ... She had turned 17...

  • love it.

  • Timeless......ageless

  • you really rock guys one of the best song ever

  • Comment removed

  • F*#! they were a talented outfit.

  • is that ocean grove ! question for austraians in victoria

  • @munchy040 nah mate

  • It's funny to think poor Americans only have Rick Springfields version of this song. They don't know about the original LOL

  • Its good to see that everyone loves real music from a decade that changed us all and as long as we enjoy it then Justin betwerp and Idol will still suck arse.

  • Ross was my next door neihbour in Box Hill :-) oh and yes I wanted him still do and I am 38

  • you can argue all you want about which era had the most defining music, but like it or not, this is REAL music, wirth real guitars and drums, and singers who could sing, and didn't earn 5 minutes of fame on IDOL or YOUTUBE!!!

  • pretty dodgy though innit

  • This song has changed my life. I would be empty without it.

  • this song is totally my song. i'm 17 and look older apparently n all the other shit in this song lol. I LOVE THE 80S!

  • @5671ah Yep, the 80s is music personified.

  • Still 50s and 60s and erly 70s music is better

  • @gen45678910 Nope, 80s is the definitive era of music. 50s was trash. Some 60s and 70s is ok, but the heart and soul of music is THE definition of the 80s.

  • This would have to be the one of my top songs of all time by an Aussie Band....just love to watch Ross and the peaceniks live....feb 2011

    See you again sometime...

  • @Katw76

    Beleive me, i think the whole idea of schoolies on the Gold Coast is stupid. A bunch of friends and I are going for a surfing trip up the nsw coast. So excited to finish school this year and then start the real work at Uni next year.

  • @2283Dr Newcastle is the greatest place to live.

  • THIS song was banned in some markets? There was a song called "High School Confidential" by a Canadian band called "Rough Trade" that had all its "bad" parts bleeped out... it had lyrics like "she makes me cream my jeans when she walks my way" and "who's that boy - what's he doing with her? There's the principal - is he SCREWING with her?" All this was made even funnier by the fact that it was a woman singing about a girl...

  • I remember, Great Song!!

  • If you love this song, listen to "Why Fight It?" by Mondo Rock. Its also an absolutely brilliant song!

  • @Kathy0851 Thanks Kathy..I Liked it :) XXX

  • Mondo Rock ROCK! They had so many fantastic hits. This was my favourite!

  • i <3 being 17 :]

  • terrible music video LOL..undressing her into her swimmign suit..mmm raunchy -.-

  • How good was it in the 80's !!!!!!. Growing up in this decade was simply the very best.

    This is just another awesome song from back then.

  • @TJayee1 This song was first released in 1984 but Mondo Rock have been around since the mid 1970's. A really legendary Aussie band!

  • Comment removed

  • 1 of Australias top 10 of all time. This just takes you back.

  • omg. been young in this era really friggin sucks because we have shitt music and as i have always said 80's were the BEST time for music.

  • @katieee14ist Ahhh you're in that case too? Nice to see i'm not alone.

  • OMG, OMG!!!

  • i was 17 when this song happened. Great memories of teenage life and girlfriends

  • i want that girl

  • isnt that aireys inlet , VICTORIA ???

    

  • @1965scotland Hope you were being sarcastic lol, that's Maroubra beach in Sydney.

  • I wonder if they'll be playing this during Schoolies week!

  • @arffrossco You can guarantee it will be played this year because its my year for schoolies. Make sure this gets played.

  • @JayBoy277 Do yourself a favour and don't do schoolies at the the Gold Coast, it's a total nightmare. Get a group of your buddies together and think of something better to do.

  • this sing is mesemrising.

  • Comment removed

  • totally agree 2283Dr accept ya spelled youse rong

  • growing up in australia in the 80s was the best .

  • Comment removed

  • @ShiningSun60 they probably liked it because it was about sex. stupid morons.

  • @airman898 it was a fantastic time, the music, the fashion, loved it all!!!!

  • @airman898 i wish i had grown up in the 80s...i've grown up in australia but not the 80s :( if i could have one wish come true, it would be to time-travel back to the 80s and be surrounded by all the awesome music, movies and absolutely everything 80s! :D mum and dad always talk about how much fun they had when they were my age and i'm so jealous lol!

  • I live in the UK now after moving to OZ in 1979 and returning in 1991.

    defo the golden age of OZ music. some very fond memories that I still find uplifting to this very day

  • Fantastic song.

  • the ULTIMATE Schoolies song, funny as that when this song came out schoolies was just starting up on the Goldy when I was a teenager

  • No Im not a prude , you dum aussie fuckwit, thats why I have a joke nick name.

    Bascically mate , this song is shet.

    What's wrong with you drop kicks I see on the news that a guy called steve had a TWIN brother called steven , what a buch of gallahs. They were wogs but.

    This song is lame and doesnt compare to shitloads of other great aussie stuff.

  • @nerdflanders8710

    Mate I would shut up! Australia is one of the most civilized places on earth that's why we have a lot of people come to our country. And one day you might be one of them, so shut up!! I agree with QueenMAB418. I love living in Australia, cause we don't have to put up with you Picks!!!!

  • @loveDudley oh no , not a queer.

  • @loveDudley Nerdflanders is a waste of time and space. You aren't and even though I like Sydney, I definitely miss Dudley while I'm down here.

  • @nerdflanders8710 I actually agree. But I never did like Mondo Rock - v. second rate band compared to others around at that time. I clicked on this to relive how awful it was. I was 16 when it came out and everyone I know thought it was stupid.

  • All my heart, my soul and my great memories with my EXs' on the beaches around Australian in the seventies onwards. Even now, it still brings good times and wonderful to my lovers, they let me see what I want to see and they me to be a man for them. This song has delicated too many wonderful lovers in my life and I extremely lucky to have one of the best songs from the eighties. It's suit me down to the ground. To me: HEAPS AWEMSOME AUSSIE'S songs. (^_^)

  • Heart,soul,this song`s got it all,and it brings back so many memories to me...thank god for the decade that was the 80`s.

  • for some reason i think it was band for tv in its day.........if i remember right?

  • @herbie37 It was banned from radio in some parts of Australia because of the lyrics about a promiscuous girl and a guy about to lose his virginity. But Countdown (and good ol' Molly) told the censors to stick it up their @rse and ran the video anyway....

  • @bordercollie1975 Yay :D ;)

  • Comment removed

  • pfft. what a deck head. there is HEAPS of good aussie music but this is not one of them . let me guess...you're gay???

  • @nerdflanders8710 With a nick like 'nerdflanders8710', who are you to be throwing stones? Flanders is a mega christer on the Simpsons...and a nerd is usually celibate. Phobic much there that you cannot get into this particular song? Possibly you prefer, oh let's see, Australian Crawl with "Boys Light Up" or is that too phallocentic for you?

    This song is GREAT and will remain great, where you will fade away and not even burn out. Ciao stupidissimo!!

  • @QueenMAB418

    I love Boys Light Up LOL!

  • nerdflanders8710@ Well I am sorry but I think you made the typo, gen456789 is right this is one of the best songs from the eighties. This song and many other songs are AWESOME!I love this song, always have and will. I cant believe you can say that! If you don't like it why listen to it, then slam it?

    I love this music from the eighties as it is "Original!"

  • Those are the steps to the beach at Maroubra in Sydney ... takes me back to Sydney summers in my teens ... though I was from the Northern beaches. Great song!

  • @Rikitocker OHHH Maroubra? My dad said it was somewhere around there! Thanks man!

  • Brilliant song! I'm 15 and this was the music I was raised on!

  • i listend to this song for about  4 hours the night after i lost my virginity

    i just sat and smiled

  • Nothing better then Driving up Nelson bay rd heading to stockton beach in 40 degree heat with the window down having this song blazing.. this would make sence if use were from newcastle, NSW

  • @2283Dr And the glow from the Beach in a heat wave from Stocko Bridge

  • @2283Dr i totally know what you mean. I live in Newcastle and go to Stockton often, i love this song and feel exactly what you are saying! great 80s song, i am 18 and wasnt alive in the 80s but i sooooooooooo wish i was! i have grown up on this music and absolutely love it!

  • @2283Dr hell yeah just did that last week
