Interesting assessment by the young woman at the beginning about NYC being a "big phallic symbol" when it has a large fertile gash right in the middle called Central Park. It even has a wet spot in the park.
This video isn't uncensored, The Heartbeat City VHS features the uncensored cut featuring a completely different beginning, shot order, and topless shots of women scattered throughout. Like the car bursting through the wall in the beginning, the car "hits" two topless chicks on the VHS. The video ends with a toy car driving around the bare chest of a woman.
can't believe i got censored for using the word "tongue." it's not a dirty word! i suppose i should try misspelling it like every other person i know, tounge, tounge, tounge. stoopid.
@ThePopcyclePete Andy Warhol also produced this video, hence its pop art perfect design. It was filmed at the Palladium (NYC) and cast full of clubgoers from the mid-eighties -- check out Gina Gershon sticking her tongue out "hello" at 0:40, what a hottie! Dianne Brill too, she's the one often saying "hello" in yet another very pop-tastic manner. Good times. The 80's were truly an alternate-universe era of fashion.
I know. they have time for all that singing since Andy is not serving up the cocktails-to busy watching the tube! Hey, make it a double!

I was like 13 years old when I first heard this song, and it was from a Nick at Nite commercial. That commercial changed my life. :)
