  • 2012

  • nice song not heard this before i know of breakout great voice

  • I love this group. Her Voice is exceptional

  • I never realized just how pretty the lead singer Corrine is. I've only seen until now the video for breakout. She's just gorgeous.

  • Hell yeah. Where did this extended version come from? I have VHS HIFi pre-recorded tape of Kaleidoscope World and it does not this extended version.

  • What happened to good music .This crap today it's not even music it's pure nosense.

  • i love this song..I'm 20 but i do love swing out sister,can't wait java jazz 2012

  • Thanks for uploading this, and there are 6 people who are sick :)...ohhh i miss this song :)

  • Is it weird that I love 80's music even though I wasn't born a decade later? xD

  • @Itoshimi Is it weird that any of us should like Mozart though we were born 2.5 centuries later?

  • @tapkae I only wrote that 'cuz compared to music my generation listens to, they wouldnt even think twice about listening to this.

  • THUMBS UP OF YOU'RE WATCHING THIS IN 2011!!!

  • Classic group and music....

    In a sense that they are unique & timeless.

  • Always one of my favs in my all times memory collection, with a special remembrance for those 80's moments .

  • SOS my all time favorite, love you corrine, great music!!

  • i really love swing out sisters tnx for leading this video

    

  • this is a woman who brings real joy to her music.. always classy..NEVER trashy like today's skanks....a wonder to behold..I'm glad to have been on earth the same time as her..kiss!!

  • So Young so Cute and Original Video, no Dubbing!

  • Comment removed

  • If you should ever change your mind

    I'll be there just call my name

    Until then I'll be

    playing the waiting game....... i really love this song...

  • Sorry for the mispelling of Corinne's name. Beautiful song.

  • Brings back so many memories! I love this song!

  • this band is one of my favorite the chemistry of andy,corine and martin is just perfect

  • Corinne has that kind of natural beauty that is amplified by her smile. She has the look of a woman that just wins one's heart. I'd love to keep happy every day, no matter what it took, just so she smiled at me that way. I don't know where she is now, or what she's doing , but I hope she's happy in life. Whoever is married to her is one lucky man.

  • Always loved this video! I was hooked after It's Better To Travel. Lovely Lady with a Lovely Voice! <3 Ofc Basia , came out with Time & Tide in 87. Im glad I bought these in CD or I would have gone through 8 cassettes!

  • The most beautiful woman in this world. End of story. 

  • This is one of the best original video's and songs that SOS produced. Thanks for posting it. Corinne is styling in 'Waiting Game' Someone just posted the original SOS video of 'You on my Mind'. And this is most likely their best produced original video. And Corinne is even more stunning in this one.

    Just type in You on My Mind original video after Swing Out Sister.

  • makes me miss eighties music videos.great song by a great duo.

  • Style, class, art, fashion, beauty. America take a lesson.

  • @suedeheadist ...hasn't Lady GG got all that?.......I'm joking obviously!

  • CORINNE FAVOLOSA!!!!!!!

  • Qué clase!!! I love this videoi and song.

  • Call my name I wait for the whisper to echo all around The clock ticks but time seems to have stopped A memory drifts by on a tune from a passing smile I remember when I kept you waiting Warm heart anticipating but empty arms debating How long to hold you Afraid to say please don't go, please stay Or please hurry back Sometimes memories last long after the kiss fades Seems I'm still playing the waiting game
  • S.O.S. has too many good songs, but for some reason this is my complete favourite, and watching the viodeo is even more ejoyable. P U R E class! Happiness and nostalgy, a good coctail.

  • @Pacalo SOS has so many great songs but some idiotic reason they were considered a one hit wonder. This group doesn't need a hit record to validate their talent. They bring class while some of the groups of today just want to shock first.

  • You just canNOT go wrong with this song!

  • very very beautiful girl!! and sure song

    too

    

  • I keep hoping to get matched with Corinne Drewery on EHarmony but my hope is fading really fast :(.

  • Sound like a Stock Aitken and Waterman production

  • @theghost12 nope! none other than Paul Staveley O'Duffy!

  • This group brings me to the memories of those times was in college during the era 80'an .. where was I very often play songs from the group Swing Out Sister, especially those titled "Breakout", when I was working in student radio at my campus called 1026khz Trisakti University. By the way .. where are they now? I have not found the latest album from Swing Out Sister in shops selling CDs in Jakarta, Indonesia

  • i love me some swing out sister

  • Classy and excellent - where are they now?

  • Look...I love this group!

    They're easily the best of the Brit/pop/rock/funk acts (I.e Culture Club, Fine Young Cannibals, Duran Duran) but they're more inventive and funkier than anything that's come out of the UK in like forever.

    The selling point is the problem.

    Corrine Drewery is the weakest link here. Look and listen to any live recordings or at the live clips. She's very weak,barely stays on key and has little or no sustain or strength in her voice.

    Her looks and model like beauty do it!

  • Que dire?...tant de charme et de talent me laisse sans voix....Et en plus le clip se déroule en France...JE suis ravi!!!!!!!!

  • I'm trying to re-build my music video collection, and I wonder why you don't see this kind of exuberance in videos anymore?

  • Corinne is very cute♥

  • Haven't seen this video for a couple years. It's still one of my favs. Corinne is so great, voice & style beyond compare. Long Live SOS !

  • I agree, corinne is a dynamite singer

  • Swing Out Sister was awesome in capturing the essence of the time that we were living in then with there incredible music, every song had a special meaning and touched you someplace. When I think back it brings tears to my eyes.

  • Delightful!

  • I agree with the comments about Corinne being a stylish woman and a great singer to top it off. Just think, this song is now 21 years old and looks quite contemporary. Someone today like Lady Gaga, in 21 years, will be laughed at "remember that?" Gimmicks can't transcend true talent.

  • I love this song!. Although I have to laugh at Corinne's funy little dance in her catsuit. She looks a bit like Garth doing his catsuit dance in the Saurday Night Live spoof of Madonna's Truth or Dare. She is still a beautiful classy lady. SOS would have been perfect to do a Bond movie theme.

  • Corinne looks like Garth when he did his dance in a catsuit in the Spoof of Madonna's Truth or Dare with Mike Meyers. A funny cat suit dance but I still think she is a very classy lady. Cheers from New York

  • evo jos jedna fenomenalna iz bezbriznih pop vremena

  • Thank you!!!

  • :) I remember being stuck on the subway between Brooklyn&Manhattan playing a waiting game while this CD single was playing. (:

  • What were you doing 21 Years ago ? I think I was in my parents home living room looking at this video.

  • swing out sister... what more can you ask for, it's timeless. When i heard there songs my time flashes back to the 80's.

  • Corinne Drewery, Sade, and Lisa Stansfield all classy HOT women...hard to find an American equal.

  • Such a BEAUTIFUL smile!!......

  • One of the best Euro 80's groups ever! So talented and never got their just due in the U.S.

  • Actually, Richard Avedon, who was a professional photog, collaborated on this video. He was the man behind Audrey Hepburn's Funny Face movie. SOS hired him to make the shots look retro on purpose. A great job he did, capturing Corrine in all her Louise Brooks beauty. A former Vougue photog of the 50's and 60's Richard did an excellent job with this video. Made this a classic!

  • Americans are fat.

  • Most european women have a certain style that is lacking in American women today.

    She is what my mother used to say is elegant,smart,classy and stylish but to me she will always make my heart skip a beat.

    She simply is timeless and one beautiful woman.

  • I agree with you. I'm American but have dated mainly Europeans. In general, European women are of far better quality.

  • There is a certain air to european women and their focus is on their men and family.

    They do the nuturing and caring and let the men sort out the hard stuff of life.

    Love Corinne she simply is timeless reminds me of someone from so long ago she is a Mum now but still writes me and asks me how I am doing.

    So it seems I have a deep crush and admiration with those women from overseas.

  • @clineshaunt I agree with you 110%. A young European woman under 30 has more maturity and sophistication than an American woman twice her age.

  • @forty8r To be honest, I think it depends on the woman. Not all American women are unsophisticated at the age of 30 and not all European woman are elegance and class at that age either. No matter where we may be from in the world, we are all individuals that are the sum of our experiences.

  • @clineshaunt no way jose...American (white ) woman are the best anywhere

  • @clineshaunt Far better quality?! You don't have to put a whole group of people down to compliment someone else. You can look at any news site and see that just as many euro women act as non-classy as some US women-people are similar the world over. Katie Price - far better quality- NO!

  • @happymike44 You went all over the US and Europe - I don't think so! Who put you in charge of judging us all? How would you fair if you were measured against others and someone elses standards- you wouldn't!

  • @estherinharlem

    Thanks for proving my point of no class after reading your post it seems like you want to be judge jury and jailer as well.

    American women are rude pushy nasty and bossy and are upset they don't have a pair of balls.

    Please keep your crap mouth and comments to yourself.

    Thank You and have a nice day and please don't even think of comparing yourself to SOS those people have style and class something you know nothing about.

  • @happymike44 First of all I never compared myself to anyone or said I was above anyone. Everyone has a right to comment and reply like it or not-I will "keep my mouth shut" only if I choose to. We will have to agree to disagree. My point still stands, you do not have to put a whole group down to compliment someone-thier goodness/quality will speak for themselves. I do appreciate your comments though, it is good to get a different opinion/perspective. May you have a nice day as well.

  • Corinne looks very Audrey Hepburn-esque in this video. I love her look, only pretty women can wear a Bob hairstyle, those that aren't should wear it.

  • @plutaris33 Andy and her, throughout the years proposed to us that romance can work, doesn't always....but could happen !

    I can't help but to think that in the behind the scene shots we see, that they were in the middle of courtship.

  • @plutaris33

    what was the name to the minor hit that followed this song in 1989?

  • @The096757

    "You On My Mind" ?

  • This is my All-Time Swing Out Sister favorite!

    Thank you so very much for uploading this song here on You Tube.

  • When I was 14 my older brother showed me this video and I fell deeply in love with Corinne Drewery;

    so in love I couldn't even concentrate

    on my cornflakes.

    Now seeing ,The Waiting Game, after all these years my silly heart still thinks

    that I'm 14.

  • Hi SOS nation Mr. Chip's needs help Swing Out Sister has a song called "o Pesadelo Dos Autores" can anyone tell me what is the translation? Peyce

  • she is so pretty...would you even think this is from 89 i just found it 4 days ago i love this song.. i was a senior in h.s. when it dropped all time favorite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Great tribute to Funny Face. Corinne makes a great Audrey Hepburn stand in.

  • Az énekes nő ,a divat,a helyszín,a klipp összeállítása és a zene G R E A T! THX!

  • What a sweet song, timeless, crisp, elegant and yet superlatives cannot address the uniqueness of it. Thank God that we have it for all-time. Thank you, 'Sister'.

  • hahahhhaaha i found out shes famous nly a couple months ago! lool its my neighbour corrine

  • A+

    6 out of 5 stars...

  • Lyrics are "You're gone", not you've gone...

  • So, the answer to the question, how beautiful can a woman be, is two words: Corinne Drewery. Corinne is feminine beauty in its purest form.

  • Couldn't agree more with you ennui2000

  • welcome to singapore Swing Out Sisters.. u the best..

  • Andy is one lucky man. Corinne's smile...whew. What fantastic music these two make....

  • So very awesome

  • ill wait forever for corrine

  • You and whose army?!!! So elegant, foxy and simply glamorous. She's been killing me for over 20 years!

  • Classic - euro - beauty -funk -sunny pretty - flowery

  • Ive got two words. Style+Grace.

    and this woman arrrrgh!!!

  • Great....;))

  • wow, how do people write music like this. amazing really.

  • Timeless, incredible music. If you like this group, you have good taste. And if you have good taste, you will also like Zero 7. If you are not hip to them, check them out! Peace.

  • i say a prayer i count the hours i hear avoice but it's not your--nice lyrics!! i miss this group the most elegant i have seen!!

  • This group had style,class and just hit the mark with the music and lyrics.

    Corinne simply was elegant and just a rare beauty in this world of the trashy broads like Britney and Madonna.

    She blows the modern singers out of the water.

  • Oh my gosh!! I MISS THIS SONG!!!, this is so fantastic and awesome, and my mother usually make her hair just like the design of swing out sister's hair, =) woooo, last year's concert in here in manila, darn!! I dont know why time runs so fast!

  • The 80's my growing up years... I miss those days so much....Now 45 years old..

  • Awesome!

  • Beautiful woman.BEAUTIFUL! Great video but not one of their best songs.

  • LOVE Swing Out Sister!! Ahhh, the late 80's...great music...good times...I wanna go back!!!

  • Porcelain beauty with incredible voice. Gorgeous.

  • Swing out sister is wonderful. I have noticed that there are only nice, friendly and positive comments about SOS that appear on all of the SOS uploads on YouTube. SO refreshing!

  • wonderful, maravilhoso, Corinne is a angel, simply! Roberto, São Paulo, SP, Brasil.

  • Diva Talentosa con musica agradable^_^

  • is Basia another one of her or is she another Basia? they're both just as ELEGANT!!!! beautiful sound...peace!

  • fashion icon and godess with Sade . class and sophisication . love them

  • @sadechic38 Roy? =)

  • @AMBASSODOR...I certainly agree Corinne is one of the most classy and beautiful, and stylish woman in the music business...its sad that the classy woman don't get much air play in America...that air time goes to the woman who are trashy not classy...I love Swing out Sister, Sade, Basia...etc...however they do not get as much respect as they deserve in the USA...its sad!

  • @iman11nami The remdy for this problem is two fold: A)Force music school in grade school. This way our kids will learn to appreciate real music. B)Parent need not fold when their kids beg to get this trashy singer' newest CD. Later, because of A, they will not need to do that. Oh yeah, there's C)Parents need to teach their kids to have independant thoughts, will and identity.

    But I realize that's too much to ask for...

  • @iman11nami Could not agree more. Many classy artists in the US(also from Europe and elsewhere) cannot get the respect they deserve-cant get signed, cant get on radio, cant get on TV. There was a time when US radio DJs could play what they wanted but that changed a long time ago. Trashy/raunchy sells so the record companies put more out and radio stations keep playing it ...endlessly.

  • @iman11nami you are so right!trashy girls like lady gaga gets all the adoration fron her stupid fans.

  • Guys, guys...She is the loveliest at 2:19 and 2:58. There! I said it.

    She seems to love to laugh and be a playful woman. I would probably do my best to make her laugh if I'd have the god-given chance to spend time with her.

    If I had a girlfriend, I would warn her about Corinne Drewery :-))

  • Yes she is!

  • Loveliest at 0:39...start of actual MV

  • she's lovelier at 3:03

  • 2:32. How lovely she is.

  • Her smile at this point rivals that of the Mona Lisa. Corinne is just beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.

  • @ennui2000

    I agree.

    She looks like the twenties actress Elizabeth Brooks. Classy.

  • @TK42138

    Louise Brooks. But, yes, just as beautiful, if not more so. Only the most beautiful of women can wear the Dutch bob 'do effectively, because it frames the beauty of women's face and thereby draws the viewer's attention to it. Louise Brooks, Uma Thurman, and Corinne Drewery are among the very few of the most beautiful women who can wear the bob 'do in a flattering manner.

  • @ennui2000

    Whoops, I meant to say Louise Brooks.

    Totally agree. There's something about that hairstyle on those women that works for me.

    Corinne was on ITV's Loose Woman recently and she still looks amazing.

  • Brillant!

  • signature bangs

  • Just like everyone else on here. I love Swing Out Sister! Been playin them for 21 years straight! Corinne is a beautiful singer! I love to listen to her, Sade, and Boy George................... Yes, Boy George, and no i'm not gay.

  • The Most "Stylish Women" ever in the Music Business

  • Aug 9, 1985 at 10:30AM .... in San Francisco... is when I First Fell in Love with Corrine. I still do ... some 25 years later.

  • I LOVE CORINNE

  • やっぱ凄いは!!20年近く前でこの完成度!!!もう超えられな­い!!日本はせいぜいパフュームが頑張ってる(中田)が世界はや­はりレベルが高い。

  • Oh brings back my highschool years... lovely!!!

  • I ♥ Corinne!

  • Thank you for the info.

  • She has an elegance about her. This was a great hit from the early 90's.

  • Just purchased tickets for June 8th in New York. Can't wait to see them. It's a small place so I hope I'm up close. Over 20yrs of liking them to finally seeing them. Very excited. Hope I get to meet Corinne.

  • God! She's Hot

  • Beautiful one!

    My beloved 80s! Too much nice memories.

  • Shieldsff ; Thanks (belatedly) for the compliment. Twilight World and Where In The World Are My 2 favorites. Did you know SOS are coming to North America? If they go to Chicago I'd go see them (I live in Minneapolis soon to be Des Moines Iowa) Do you know if Corrine and Andy are mad with Martin for leaving in the middle of making Kaleidescope? Take care and thanks again!

  • i just have one question are these two a couple? I could never figure that one out.

  • Oh yeh i loved this song too. Wasn't this one of the last songs they did with Martin Jackson?

  • Swing Out Sister to perform in the U.S.

  • OMG !! is des schlecht !! -.-

  • This is my favorite song of 1989, and one of my 3 favorite SOS songs...this album ("Kaleidoscope World") is what brought them up to "supergroup" level for me and they're now my #2 all-time fave artists EVER...after Karen & Richard. :) BRAVO.

  • The Carpenters?? Are you serious?? Sorry.....I just think they are/were too overated.

  • Well it's all a matter of taste, I realize. But I don't think people will ever fully appreciate the quality of their recordings. To each their own I guess. I think of just about every current artist as completely overrated...along with the Whitneys, Mariahs, and all of that crap.

  • Corrine is a great songtress and she seems like such a lovely person; it would be great to see Corrine and Sade my other favorite smooth jazz artist do a recording project together; now that would be great! Also, I understand Martin Jackson left the group right as SOS was doing the music videos for Kaleidescope because he felt SOS was evolving toward smooth jazz ; he could have been honorable and left after the project was finished . Does Andy and Corrine hold ill feelings toward Martin?

  • great call on your SOS call- all the same and likewise for me. I think my favorite is " You On my Mind"- I can listen to it all day!

  • Hey shieldstt!!! "You On My Mind" is my favorite song as well. It would be great if they ever did a concert or two here in Canada.

  • yeah sheldon66 for your sake, I hope they do... I love their genrally upbeat sounds. As I mentioned in a earlier post, it would be incredible if they did a tour which included Sade and Sting- they are all incredible ! Btw, I LOVE Canada-especially Toronto and Montreal- I am really looking forward to my 1st visti to Vancouv soon I hope

  • Corrine reminds me of another excellent British singer Petula Clark. Also Andy is such a sharp dressed man. He has alot of class in his sartorial wardrobe . (Thats more than I can say for all those rap clowns with all that bling and gold teeth which just goes to show just because you have money to buy something does not mean you have class which is something you learn; I'm saying this and I'm African -American) SOS is my favorite Europop group.

  • whoohoo!!

  • Her looks grow on you, don't they!!

  • SOS, Basia, and the rest of the Brittish invasion on the U.S. music industry was their role model at that time. But the comming of the horrible music aka ganster rap change all that. Now its sex, drugs, bad words, money, ect!!! Whats happening to the good music and videos now. thank you for posting this good classic song and video. And thank you You Tube for having this site.

  • "But the comming of the horrible music aka ganster rap change all that. Now its sex, drugs, bad words, money, ect!!"

    No gangsta rap had nothing to do with music's decline, originality and no talent contributed to that please do not put rap music down.

  • Comment removed

  • more great horn kicks. . . wonderful pop!

  • ha ! in stereo !

  • Comment removed

  • Intelligent pop. This group really made some music that took you places and painted scenes-psychedelic stuff.

  • smashing stuff. SOS are the bizz!
