I remember this song! I have it on CD that I used to listen to in the car when I was little and just the other day my friend randomly started singing this during lunch.
My daughter's only 14 but she's just heard me playing this YouTube clip and is already humming "Hands up". Used to a seemingly remorseless diet of rap and tuneless 'hits' on MTV, she reckons her generation is being badly short changed by the music moguls who foist this 'pap' on gullible and impressionable youth. She asks where all the happy, catchy songs have gone? These words are music to my ears! I can't wait to introduce her - AT HER REQUEST - to my stash of 45s from the 60s, 70s and 80s!
Ottawan Hands Up released on 3 August 1981 making no 2 on 14 September 1981 for 3 weeks also re-released on 2 December 1985 making no 5 on 13 January 1986
Hate to admit it but I do actually like this . And despite not normally caring too much for live preformences this is one of those exceptions . However unless I am mistaken do I take it that that is a different girl than normal with him ? And if so why is that ? Mind you though , I do like her .
@Monek170994 I have 18 years of age, and singing the song all night ... it's very sticky WooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooOOOoo ♫^ ^! 2:51♫♪ Hands up, baby, hands up, gimme your heart, gimme, gimme your heart give it, give it.♫ Hands up, baby, hands up, gimme your heart, gimme, gimme your heart give it, give it. Hands up, baby, hands up, gimme your heart, gimme, gimme your heart give it, give it.♫ all your love, all your love. ^^ !!! 70.s 80.s Woooooo ! give it 2:51 again ♫♪
hands up!!!! ojala la revivan al igual que madonna con la cancion de abba hung up, porque es lo maximo!! escuchen su ritmo!! linda bella preciosa!! muy alegre....
the female singer is so pretty, she dances so sexy, anybody knows her name ???, i am in love since i saw her, she isn´t habitual singer, the habitual singer is a black woman.
My older sister danced to this as part of a christmas play when she was at primary school in the late 80's, looking back at it now she must be embarrassed.
Great song I love it. Thats what the 80s were about having a good time. Listen to the lyrics no talk of goin out doin drugs,drink,sex etc like they sing about now or should I say try to SING about.
I have lived for 6 months on the Philippines, in the small town of Loon at Bohol. Near the house in which I stayed there was a primary school and each morning was this one of the songs they played and the children danced on it. Lovely song, and after a while I danced on that song too hehehee
Look at the girl 1:12 - it's unusual to see she's just standing and singing, not wearing bikini and jumping on the stage with bouncing tits. I think nowadays girls lost their modesty.
Even though released in 1981, this song doesn't really belong in the "80's". It's a lot more 70's in style and feel. Maybe you could say it belongs in that weird period between approximately 1977-1983 that perhaps might be called the "early 80's" (or late 70's). It's a "disco era" song par excellence.
TIENE UN SONIDO SIMILAR A LA CANCIÓN DE UN GRUPO VENEZOLANO LLAMADO UNICORNIO, QUE TRIUNFO EN EL FESTIVAL DE LA OTI EN 1982 EN PERÚ-LIMA, CON UNA CANCIÓN LLAMADA CANTA PANA ...EME-ENE.
American Bandstand! Soul Train! Paradise Garage! Raves/NorthernSoul! Gold Top! White Jeans! Pony Tail! 70s music in the 80s still relevant in the New Millennium! Thank you for posting cheesy but still cool/fun dance classic!! Happy New Year!! DAVEDJ
era 1980 y la musica disco estaba muriendo para dar paso a los fabulosos 80´s.pero los que vivimos los 80´s recordamos los 70´s que marcaron nuestra preadolecencia. viva la musica , 60´s 70´s 80´s lo mejor de la historia.
Your "Hands up(Ottawan)" video is quite moving!!!! Are you interested to make some extra earnings with it through paypal?I'm ready to pay 15 dollars a week if you make some few changes on the description and add some annotation.Contact me if you are in.
@tauescor the song is released in 1981 - it's rather a late 70tys instead from the 80tys. In the 80tys you don't know that, good music, quaint folks a evrywhere and you think that will never end - but it ends and then came the 90tys and you must search for good music and for quaint folks. But every decade has his highligts. So the 60tys, 70tys, 80tys, 90tys or now ar not perfect but in any way good.
