Dude! After all these years I encounter THAT mustachioed face again. Fuck. That drummer wooed me with his envy inducing facial hair when I was just a naive, dirt stached kid of 14. Next thing I know, it's 3 am & I'm face down behind the dumpster of Chiquitos with my cornhole bleeding. Goddamn motherfucker. This song haunts me til this day & my ass lips still have the 'stache burn to prove it. Someone please kill me.
The 1st time i saw this, i thought you have got to be kidding!LOL. But then i realized, OMG this IS the late 60's/early70's! This IS the world i grew up in, Once you accept it for the time period it came from, you realize it was a wonderful time in music (:
@brubakertx Sure, if you like computer music - I think the Vengaboys version is rubbish, but it made Torben Lendager a lot of money, so for that reason they're welcome to do it again.
I remember the 70s, I remember the hair, but no-one had hair like the lead guitarist (1:01) . It's a combination of long haired hippy and bad combover. Amazing. The song is fairly standard bubble-gum pop of the era (like The Archies, 1910 Fruitgum Company, early stuff by The Sweet) - all good clean fun.
Thank you for uploading this so that such a thing never disappears from our world! Putting rare things like this on the internet pretty much immortalizes it. ^_^ I appreciate you keeping the past vividly alive for us all!
This is awful, this band looked like they wanted to be The Sweet.I bet they wish they had a 'Blockbuster' or 'Ballroom Blitz' to their name instead of this crap!
This is totally amazing.I love much of the vengaboys material and when i heard this track i always wondered if it was a cover.This proves it was a cover.
Thanks so much for sharing this video: LOL I was in the 8th grade when this song hit the radio stations in my home town, and whats so funny is that I had the same hair style as Torben and pretty much wore the same style of clothes-- God that was a long time ago LOL!! Thanks for the great memories it's fun to go back and remember those times.
Sorry to say.....but.....in the early 70' I wantet the same hair as the singer...Torben...in the band. But my dad said >> NO WAY-NOT EVER...not when I'm alive!!!<<
Me encanta esta canciónnnn.. pero al mismo tiempo me mata de la risa de ver la vestimenta de esa epoca...jajajaja ayyyy no puedo creerlo..pero eran geniales
Yes! The composer Torben Lendager is the front figure ie. singer -and the guy behind the drums Poul Dehnhardt did the lyrics - a world wide smash HIT!
I first heard this in Asia around 10 years ago, so I guess that was before the Vengaboyz. At the time, I thought Billy Joel had totally ripped this off.
Thanks to the video poster, I now have my facts straght. Billy Joel ripped this song off, not the other way around.
Someone get me the number to The Walkers' lawyer. :p
Yeees! That's what life is all about - inspire each other :-) Torben Lendager and Poul Dehnhardt wrote this "Ever Green" wayback in 1973. Clever guys the are :-) "JUST STAY HAPPY" :-)
This song has also been sunged in Norway, at the 70's, by the group Septimus, with Steinar " Cliff Richard" Fjeld on vocals, and was a song about touring Norway
ha ha - oh now it was very common in glam rock back then 35 years ago look at groups liek Slade and Sweet. (I think the Guitar player is wearing a gigantic whig to cover the top of his head???)
By the way Walkers were a dansih group. <<<<<<< not treu Netherlands people lived in Ulestraten in Limburg Leo steinbusch whas fammilie from me.
ha ha - oh now it was very common in glam rock back then 35 years ago look at groups liek Slade and Sweet. (I think the Guitar player is wearing a gigantic whig to cover the top of his head???)
