Yep, an excellent time! I am thankful to God that I was a teen back in the 70's! Turning on the FM radio and riding my skateboard! Good Times! God Bless the 70's!!!
When I saw this pop in a queu after listening to another 70's song I couldn't believe it. This was one of my favorites when it came out and I was 8 years old. I still have the 45 today that I bought back then. Visually it is probably one of the most recognizable to me from the name Sky High and Jigsaw and the color scheme on the 45. Cool to see it in the video.
@BigEricHunt I love this song (sentimental attachment from early childhood and the fact that it was used in a George Lazenby movie), but that's a funny observation.
AWESOME! Thanks to a fb friend I found this long-forgotten song! Heard it for the first time when we lived in England on Top of the Pops. Thanks for posting this!
Hate to say it but I always thought that the band were...brothers! Yes, before videos/Internet you can see why I at least thought this was 70's disco/soul. Man this was a great one hit wonder. No way to keep from tapping the toe on this classic gem. Get on down and right on mo!
Great childhood memories. The production is remarkable considering the time frame. This song was voted among the worst of all time by the same idots who hate Gilbert O'Sullivan and the Raspberries. I miss the days of Beatle influenced 70s bands filling the radio right along with Sir Paul himself!
I'm also a child of the '70s........can't imagine any better music......and the memories they bring back to what seemed to be such a simpler time.....Thank God for the music and the memories that can transport us back if even for just a few minutes......All my Best to everyone....Thanks for posting such great music.....Keep it up!
this makes me miss the past..To bad music and life isn't what it use to be..I honestly think that the 70's and 80's were the best years this planet ever had..I'm so greatful for growing up in that era..only thing i would change..to bad i wasn't an adult and living on my own..then i would of had an even better blast..i was a young teen
@Midnightryder7 - Thank you for that. That actually took me back for a few moments to what it was like to be a child hearing this for the first time. <3
This is such a GREAT song. How can you not smile?? Such good stuff! Actually has a great, fun beat, ya can dance to and it offends no one by the lyrics. I must be old fashioned. I know shut up grand pa. I'll close the door now.
@jacksonreiahnna but japanese they understand this of all, and only for the name HIgh fly!! the same with Ultimo Dragon with Separados from Luis Miguel, (sorry for my english)
Even though I only five years old when this song came out, I remember that I liked it a lot. My sister and I pretended that we were starring in our own variety show and this was one of the songs we'd perform. We even had choreography to it and everything. LOL
iN THE SEVENTIES i WAS A SKYDIVER, AND WHEN i HAD THE LONG DRIVE HOME AFTER A WEEKEND OF JUMPING AND THIS WOULD COME ON THE RADIO..i WAS IN HEAVEN.. THANKS FOR SHARING IT.
What makes this almost-a-One-Hit Wonder tune memorable for me personally (other than a terrific arrangement) is that, back in 1976-77 when I played in a pop tunes cover band in southwestern Germany as a rhythm guitarist/vocalist, I was the one who vocally simulated that "Viking horn" sound heard at 2:32 - ah, what memories! Thanks MusicMike2 for such a great post.
Thanks MusicMike...i love the 70's radio hits...i appreciate you guys uploading these tunes for us to enjoy again...it's interesting to see how music has changed over the years.another favourite of mine from back in the day is 'Moonlight feels right'....thanks again.
"Sky High" is the name of a 1975 single by British pop music group, Jigsaw. The song, the main title theme to the film entitled The Man from Hong Kong, was a world-wide hit in the latter part of 1975, reaching #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States and #9 in the UK Singles Chart.
@suria49 The U.S. gov't found ways to poison American's health with fluoridated water and products, aspartame in diet drinks and foods and all kinds of toxic chemicals. We've been dumbed down. Does that answer your question?
@studiosinger first of all this song is about love not politics. It is about romance do not try to mix it or spin it with dirty politics. it is disgusting.
I am here to listen to beautiful music. SCREW THE GOVERNMENT TALK! By the way if you don't like fluoride don't drink municipal water. Everything causes cancer even negative thoughts
@suria49 That's what the song means to you, but not necessarily to others. Songs are left to interpretation and you can't restrict or limit how people choose to interpret an artist's material. For me, it's a political based song because true lovers don't lie to one another destroying their love, politicians commonly do with the people. As far as what causes cancer, then I guess you're gonna get cancer because you're a very negative controlling up tight person, at least from your message.
@studiosinger I think your opinion about politicians and Hydrofluorosilicic Acid in parts per billion added to municipal water treatment plants are out of context with respect to this topic. Whether you see cheese holes in the moon and real craters etc this ain't got nothing to do with thisr theme. you failed to answer my question. I'm not interested in Jerry Brown. you will be more successful in the political section. I m here to enjoy the music
@suria49 You really have a talent for blowing things out of proportion. When you ask a question and someone answers you then manipulate it as you see fit. You must be a lawyer or some similar black and white no gray area profession. It makes you feel safe, and you don't do well with alternate viewpoints which is why you opt for this communication system. This isn't a forum.
@suria49 NEVER AGAIN, will we have music as in the 1960's and 1970's..........I am so glad that I lived those times......Today's music industry is NON EXISTENT.......Back then we had a music industry second to NONE... Sierra Cuban, Miami, La Florida, Estados Unidos de América....
@sierracuban I totally agree with you. what we have is a substandard subculture. There is no competition, music education is almost non-existent in high school and of course our beloved government starting on the nineties to export our industries overseas and the fact that they began to allow big corporations to merge. On top of it MTV began to manufacture and monopolize the music industry. Many independent radio stations were swallowed by the giants and Everything went to hell
Thanks for posting this. Sure brings back memories from youth, and a time when music was awesome. I remember waking up on weekends to Casey Kasem. Ordinary people had a say about what songs made to the top. Just awesome.
This sounds like it would be perfect for a Roger Moore era James Bond 007 movie like Live and Let Die to Moonraker. Plus the lyrics fit perfectly for a Bond movie, and it was used in a film starring George Lazenby the 2nd James Bond
I remember when it came out around 1974. My brother used to play it full bore on his 1974 Torana car cassette stereo. Very popular with the Asians now, but back then Chariman Mao's communist thought police would have arrested any Chinese caught listening to this.
MusicMike2 - Thanks for your upload. I apologize that I'm not a "techno geek" like some of the others on YouTube who seem to badmouth and downgrade every song that they watch and listen to! For those of you in this category - please go somewhere else! I truly doubt that you people could do better! Thanks, MusicMike2 as this reminds me of the summer I spent in DeLand, FL working out with Arthur Jones and Nautilus. Good, good memories!
rock and roll comes in many different formats. nah, they'll never make the r'n'r hall of fame, but still a great song nice to know bubblegum music didn''t die in the 60's
This song is spectacular and I don't imagine anyone who didn't live in the 1970's would know that. It is definitive of the era and I remember being in a great mood at 10 years old, listening to Jigsaw! I wish that songs still made you feel great!

Great song but ....... trashy levels ... red red red ...... you need some EQ lessons ... sorry MusicMike2. Bloody terrible. :( my cat just bolted from the room.
@sixthandsunset --- Sorry it doesn't meet with your liking or your cats. You're welcome to upload the song yourself with all the EQ settings perfectly adjusted to make you happy. But, I guarantee you that someone out there is not going to like what you've done.............maybe even your cat.
You did a nice job Mike, and for those people who want "EQ quality the hell with them! You video is the only one with words so keep up the good work. this song is and was GREAT AND SO WAS THIS VIDEO YOU DID!
Hey @MusicMike2 , dont worry about that comment, its not really easy to find a good song like this and post here, and nobody pay you for post here, its just the good feeling to share with us your good music; so, I want to thank you for post it. Be happy =)
@sixthandsunset..... Its most likely your an X or later generation who didn't have the good fortune to mature in the pinnacle years of R&R. Digital sound enhancement wasn't even on the drawing board. Today's generations, the "get everything handed to them" genre, appreciate little, or nothing, but their own vanity. You want, but don't give in return. Please follow your cat into cyber space a d do us all a big favor!!!!!
@sixthandsunset Nothing wrong with the EQ levels! Perhaps you should invest in a better pair of speakers or headphones....and may i also suggest another cat....just sayn
I agree,the production reminds me of McCartney's stellar 'Live And Let Die',this track would have been perfect for a Bond flick entitled 'SkyHigh' of course.
This was a huge hit back in the day. And it was a good one, too. In fact, I kinda miss these songs. You know, the kind where they really found a great melody and worked it well. With today's music, you almost never hear that melodic sweet spot, you don't hear great hooks anymore. Basically, that's what great pop songs should be about. But today, people seem more interested in visuals, personalities, and attitude. Hopefully the trend will change.
To get into the R & R Hall Of Fame you have to voted in by a panel of 35 record coy execs, critics, muso journalists ad nauseum... That's why so many deserving bands haven't made it yet nor never will.. It's run by a bunch of clusterfucks!
i was a teenager when this song came out, i loved then and still love it and imma 50. i wish people that might be clueless ranting and raving about who should go to the r&r hall.if you don't like the song then git your sorry asses outta here PEACE ALL
This song is my childhood with my cousin who I don't even now is alive today. She had a herion addiction her 20's and we lost touch. I miss you Becky.
I was a college DJ in 1975. My girlfriend Sue told me a lie that pissed me off. I went up to the radio studio that day and announced that I had a special song for a special girl named Sue... this one's for you! And then I played this song for everyone to hear. I don't recall if she heard her special dedication that day, but I felt better. We were together another 4 years after that.
thanks! i was trying to find the name of this song! i am trying to create mil mascaras , the greatest mexicao luchador, for smackdown vs raw 2011, this was his intro LOL ^_^
This song ALWAYS reminds me of a lad I was seeing from Sydney, Australia.....we were both only 16/17 and really young.....one day he met me and told me that his parents were going back to Australia and taking him with them, in about a week!! I was heartbroken....we kept in touch for a while but then it just drifted off.....but it's funny how a song can make you feel EXACTLYas you did 35 years ago......sob sob sob LOL
Really listened to this song over and over again on the radio, until recently I knew the title, makes me remember the great moments I lived throughout my life, exeriencias good and bad, but this cool song called " SkyHight "really is a great classic of the disco. As would have liked to have been sent when this music! Greetings
I'm glad to discover your work on youtube. I have two copies of the Jigsaw album along with the 45. The magic of AM radio brought to life despite those who trash one hit wonders like Jigsaw. Let's face it, those who grumble at these groups don't have the talent, timing, or the "it" factor and can't stake their place in music history. I'd love to have just one hit back then without the aid of cyberspace and it's related offsprings! Critics are left with themselves, while the music lives on!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@MusicMike2 Creem my favorite magazine from the 70's/80's. Yeah this is one of those one hit wonders from a Disneyland act. Well I agree with Creem This is 100% bubblegum and a real sorry reason to go spend money. If they were so good, They should be in th R&R Hall Of Fame, have merchandising, an Anthology box set, and a Grammy. None of the above. Creem you rock and so does capitolemiproducer. Your videos are everything a collector wants to hear. His stuff from real musicians,
@BIGLOU48 ----If you don't like this song and thinks it's just Disney Land music....then why are you here listening to it? As for judging them by not being in the R&R Hall Of Fame.....well, they inducted ABBA....and that is NO R&R group in my book. They lost all of their credibility with me after that. The induction of Madonna didn't help either. Your evaluation of what makes a "real musician" is very shallow. Milli Vanilli got a Grammy....oops, had a Grammy. They had merchandising, too. Lol
@BIGLOU48 Like you Big Lou I like to find these lame ass songs and see the way out remarks of " How great this song, and blah blah blah. I called KRTH-The Sound100- and my deejay friend at KFXM. The all said the same thing.
We do not have this. MG Kelly laughed at the thought of playing this song, The Sound said what and who, but Louie at KFXM gave me the best quote: Why waste harddrive space on this, when I can put White Bird From It's A Beautiful Day on our rotation? I'm gonna remember that.
@BIGLOU48 Yours is an intersting opinion. Of course, instead of allowing Creem (which I used to read, too, btw) do my thinking for me, I think I'd prefer to judge on my own. Also, the over-the-hill babyboomers who invented a "hall of fame" for something as subjective as music are not worth much merit either. Rock n Roll was once THE music of the anti-establishment. Then the boomers got old and, true to form, betrayed their former, youthful values. All the best, friend.

I remember when it came out around 1974. My brother used to play it full bore on his 1974 Torana car cassette stereo. Very popular with the Asians now, but back then Chariman Mao's communist thought police would have arrested any Chinese caught listening to this.

MusicMike2 - Thanks for your upload. I apologize that I'm not a "techno geek" like some of the others on YouTube who seem to badmouth and downgrade every song that they watch and listen to! For those of you in this category - please go somewhere else! I truly doubt that you people could do better! Thanks, MusicMike2 as this reminds me of the summer I spent in DeLand, FL working out with Arthur Jones and Nautilus. Good, good memories!

This song is spectacular and I don't imagine anyone who didn't live in the 1970's would know that. It is definitive of the era and I remember being in a great mood at 10 years old, listening to Jigsaw! I wish that songs still made you feel great!

@sixthandsunset --- Sorry it doesn't meet with your liking or your cats. You're welcome to upload the song yourself with all the EQ settings perfectly adjusted to make you happy. But, I guarantee you that someone out there is not going to like what you've done.............maybe even your cat.

@sixthandsunset..... Its most likely your an X or later generation who didn't have the good fortune to mature in the pinnacle years of R&R. Digital sound enhancement wasn't even on the drawing board. Today's generations, the "get everything handed to them" genre, appreciate little, or nothing, but their own vanity. You want, but don't give in return. Please follow your cat into cyber space a d do us all a big favor!!!!!

Great song from the movie of the same name; my best friend from high school, now Dr. Todd Ovokaitys, and I went and saw this movie.
The film was good entertainment and featured some excellent martial arts.
Todd and I will long remember the banter and lines about the "special branch."

This was a huge hit back in the day. And it was a good one, too. In fact, I kinda miss these songs. You know, the kind where they really found a great melody and worked it well. With today's music, you almost never hear that melodic sweet spot, you don't hear great hooks anymore. Basically, that's what great pop songs should be about. But today, people seem more interested in visuals, personalities, and attitude. Hopefully the trend will change.

To get into the R & R Hall Of Fame you have to voted in by a panel of 35 record coy execs, critics, muso journalists ad nauseum... That's why so many deserving bands haven't made it yet nor never will.. It's run by a bunch of clusterfucks!

I was a college DJ in 1975. My girlfriend Sue told me a lie that pissed me off. I went up to the radio studio that day and announced that I had a special song for a special girl named Sue... this one's for you! And then I played this song for everyone to hear. I don't recall if she heard her special dedication that day, but I felt better. We were together another 4 years after that.

This song ALWAYS reminds me of a lad I was seeing from Sydney, Australia.....we were both only 16/17 and really young.....one day he met me and told me that his parents were going back to Australia and taking him with them, in about a week!! I was heartbroken....we kept in touch for a while but then it just drifted off.....but it's funny how a song can make you feel EXACTLYas you did 35 years ago......sob sob sob LOL

I'm glad to discover your work on youtube. I have two copies of the Jigsaw album along with the 45. The magic of AM radio brought to life despite those who trash one hit wonders like Jigsaw. Let's face it, those who grumble at these groups don't have the talent, timing, or the "it" factor and can't stake their place in music history. I'd love to have just one hit back then without the aid of cyberspace and it's related offsprings! Critics are left with themselves, while the music lives on!

@MusicMike2 Creem my favorite magazine from the 70's/80's. Yeah this is one of those one hit wonders from a Disneyland act. Well I agree with Creem This is 100% bubblegum and a real sorry reason to go spend money. If they were so good, They should be in th R&R Hall Of Fame, have merchandising, an Anthology box set, and a Grammy. None of the above. Creem you rock and so does capitolemiproducer. Your videos are everything a collector wants to hear. His stuff from real musicians,

@BIGLOU48 ----If you don't like this song and thinks it's just Disney Land music....then why are you here listening to it? As for judging them by not being in the R&R Hall Of Fame.....well, they inducted ABBA....and that is NO R&R group in my book. They lost all of their credibility with me after that. The induction of Madonna didn't help either. Your evaluation of what makes a "real musician" is very shallow. Milli Vanilli got a Grammy....oops, had a Grammy. They had merchandising, too. Lol

We do not have this. MG Kelly laughed at the thought of playing this song, The Sound said what and who, but Louie at KFXM gave me the best quote: Why waste harddrive space on this, when I can put White Bird From It's A Beautiful Day on our rotation? I'm gonna remember that.

@BIGLOU48 Yours is an intersting opinion. Of course, instead of allowing Creem (which I used to read, too, btw) do my thinking for me, I think I'd prefer to judge on my own. Also, the over-the-hill babyboomers who invented a "hall of fame" for something as subjective as music are not worth much merit either. Rock n Roll was once THE music of the anti-establishment. Then the boomers got old and, true to form, betrayed their former, youthful values. All the best, friend.
