[70SULACO]

É SÓ PORRADARIA NO SALÃO!!! REVIDE, REVIDE, REAJA!!! A EQUIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

[byron8181]

This kicks ASS on every level that possibly ever existed. WAYYYYY too far ahead of their time, should've been HUGE.

[AtomicMutant]

I love how this is SO obviously canned. It's identical to the recorded version, because it is the recorded version. Sputnik never hit me as being any kind of a live band, but simply a studio dance group, watching them 'live' is downright embarassing. Still I loved this song back in the day.

[NathanPaulPrince]

holy sex pistols!

[DrSmarttt]

FUCKING AWESOME!!! I LOVEEEEEEEE SS!!

[svesse2]

[myhorse3]

Enchanting ^_^

[judgedreddonabsa]

As if blocking me stops me from creating more youtube accounts - you really are a fucking idiot, aren't you? Pussy too. Better block this one too, cos now you look even more stupid.

Blaming the software for your ignorance is convenient, but does not change the fact that this is NOT HD and thus, the text is misleading. Maybe you need to spend less time with your boyfriend and more time educating yourself on ripping...or at least on correctly labeling your uploads correctly.

[BarberellaLoves]

@judgedreddonabsa I think the fact that you've created another youtube account to reply to my post is all everyone needs to know about your sad life. As for boyfriend? I've actually got a wife and she's stunning but so what if I did have a boyfriend? You're the one making a fool of yourself. I'm blocking you again so you can make another youtube account, reply again so we can all laugh at you even more you sad fool. Oh by the way, i'm still waiting for youtube take this off! haha.

[gloryboxmusic]

@BarberellaLoves lol what a little twat this judgedreddonabsa is

[zindi1138]

[starfyre05]

AWESOME,WHERE ARE THEY???????????/

[BULLETSAREOURFRIENDS]

ive met himm!!

[2000jago]

If you re-render stock TV footage at 1080p, that doesn't make it high def.

Just like taking a picture at 1.2MP and "stretching it" with photoshop to 5MP does not create a true 5MP pic.

This is NOT _REAL_ high definition, because there is no HD source of this footage. It's just re-seized to HD resolution spec. Flagged for misleading text.

[BarberellaLoves]

@2000jago this is funny on so many levels. 1st, i'm sure evryone is very grateful for your lessons on the differences about HD and SD, also your explanation for all of us people that are stupid and have no idea. THANK YOU! 2nd, this was uploaded just as youtube started to upload HD and HQ movies, the movies before this were blocky and not good quality. It was so people would know that it was a recent upload and not a historic blocky upload. 3rd, get a life! 4th, oo you flagged it, i'm shaking!

[BarberellaLoves]

@2000jago also, while I'm at it, the software that I used to rip this from VHS video was a free download and the software automatically set the resolution not me. Honestly, you either need to get out more or get a fit girlfriend. You are one very sad act. "Flagged for misleading text" actually made me laugh out loud you sad fucker.

[ultravox6]

super sexy song

[mesablack]

It was the done thing to mime on Top of the Pops in the 80's.. The band did and could play for real at live concerts back then.. Visit my page for an example.. I have two vids up.. ;)

[unnim]

Wow why did the gays control progressive music in the 80s? I luved Frankie goes to hollywood, I luved Queen, i luved, Taco, I luved Thomas Dolby,

[JiLlPoSS3]

I thought this only existed in fantasies like movies O: :D glad I am wrong. THIS AWESOME!!!

[skorpion72xx]

wow fantastic song

[MaolchaliumsVidBlog]

They were the most refreshing group at that boring patch in Pop. Some reason the DJ's hated them.

[MaikyLouis]

Wo sind die denn weggelaufen ???????????????????

[Sasha7644]

Made in England

[EnochLight]

@ BarberellaLoves - thanks for posting this gem - these guys sounded like the future and still look fucking amazing.

[SlyWeb1971]

Brings back good memories.... exept for the part at 1:20 when the song continues without the singer...o .O lol

[schummiehugo]

@SlyWeb1971 ant 1,48....its a sleep ting , 2 mach drug ?????

[schummiehugo]

[blitzspeer]

It sucked back then and was fake,they got the idea for their look from The Road Warrior and GBH a real punk band.And I watched this only long enough to remind myself of the truth because it's been a while;notice it's all lip synced and they don't really play their instruments.

[EnochLight]

@blitzspeer - you sir, are an IDIOT. Freaking *EVERYTHING* on "Top of the Pops" was lip sync'd. And GBH sucked, btw.

[DontShakeItUp]

@blitzspeer "notice it's all lip synced and they don't really play their instruments." Notice it's Top of The Pops.

[junkman19571]

@blitzspeer and the road warrior was a rip off of the english comic 2000ad.......so there....

[rogerioshaiko]

Dancei muito!

[Garbster1]

firkin fantastic - still sounds ahead of its time

The lady was called 'Miss yana ya ya'

[Garbster1]

firkin fantastic - still sounds ahead of its time

[peme38]

Whats the name of the girl in the band?

[EnochLight]

@peme38 :  YaYa.

[EnochLight]

@peme38

YaYa!

[EnochLight]

@peme38 - she was called YaYa!

[NeilThompson30]

Saw them at the Camden Palace in 86 - straight after Zodiac at the Boston - what a night - The Lady Gagas of 1986.

[MrCocut]

O pisa nu ptr. tinerii de azi!

Piesa a fost deliciul anilor `80,ptr.unii ca noi.

Am crescut mari si mai urmarim umbra tineretii noastre.

o piesa buna!

SSS Super!

[demento81]

Homosexual people rule the world. And thats a good thing.

[saibaTikLt]

@demento81 You call this good thing? Homosexuals is mental case. It's good thing that sciencists invented a way to make homosexual to normal people.

[TheSaoirse777]

@saibaTikLt yea right thicko , if that was the case gays would not exist. you are so stupid did your mother marry her brother is that why u are such a pussyclot? why u here anyhow, had a wet dream fantasising bout these guys?

[xstreamfilmmaker]

Formed by Generation X member Tony James. Freekin great band. Still doing stuff today and producing for others. Tony James and friend Billy Idol are couple of English horn dog certainly not gay as some posters would think. Yana was the hot blonde chick in the band. She is still hot today. What's funny was she was a co-worker with a bandmate that hooked her up to play keyboards as a side job. You can see her in the background. Oh an Luckwiz, Bunnymen sucked!

[UlfilasUk]

They're still going strong - publish mainly online - don't do many gigs these days but they did play Whitby Goth Festival a few years ago

[brianpcurran]

@luckywiz lead singer is with carbon silicon with mick jones of the clash and big audio dynamite.

[NeilThompson30]

@luckywiz - oh shut up you tart

[paniciao]

the 80's FUCKIN' KICKED ASS.

[soundcrumbs]

@paniciao Yeah, mostly it's own ass...

[TheMusicman12ize]

amazing fantastic band loved this track 80s what class music there was

[maxgaly]

F A N T A S T I C !!!!

[ladyduke71]

Yee, 1986... that long ago already. Time really flies. I used to love this band. Forgot about them. Thats the great thing of You Tube. Seeing all these old bands back. Great.

[333Chrome]

i like the band since forever, but notice the singer does a bad stageshow on this video...he misses the pitch at least 6 times or more, just watch....anyway, cool looks

[deathsdiary]

Did any one know that Neil X has worked along with Marc Almond on many albums and dozens of concerts on guitar and co song writer since 95?

[bizchazlien]

SSS RULES!!! One of my all time fave.s for over 20 years! Man, this brings back some great memories!

[brunoneverland]

freak

[cervusadfontes]

They were so ahead of their time. Paradoxically the more famous they became the more the message got misunderstood. They were right to disband when they did rather than become a sad self parody. The music still makes my hair stand up though. & I reach for my eyeliner.....

[losttribe]

1986. That was 25 years ago!!

Yet these guys' flamboyant costumes is ENOUGH to put today's Lady Gaga to shame!!

[cervusadfontes]

@losttribe hmm I'm a 50 yr old and you would be very scared if you saw me in glam. Like Pete Burns with more/better tattos

[RolandWieffering1]

@cervusadfontes Never Mind. I'm 53 (and play better guitar that the guy with the mohawk.) and still rock.Never mind the eyeliner grab y'r guitar!!!!!!

I'm a 21st century space cowboy.

(SSS were years ahead of their time.)

Roland

[333Chrome]

@losttribe totaly right, if this gaga thing is good at anything, it is at remembering me there were artists who made Life seem like a Punkshow, and not presume the other way around

[Armyfractal]

reminds me of dead inside the chrysalis

[whitehorsemunching]

that rhyme with mercury ......, luxury - brilliant!

[ivanpavlas]

Love it... SSS rulezzz...!!! :)

[Vampiregothmother]

T-J has good future vision! ..Yeah!!! Roland G-707 Rocks Baby!!!!!!!

[muaythaijunky]

i think i like the song. too bad the obvious fake singing is obvious. and its very simple repeat synthisizer. theyr realy bad at faking. i know a few people who can help them......actual 21st century pop singers masterd the art of faking.

[nkmcfrln]

@muaythaijunky Keith Moon was the king of being really bad at faking, so don't give the 21st Century Mickey Mouse Club any compliments they don't deserve. You really need to give the comment about the "very simple repeat synthesizer" some thought. Check out Kraftwerk and Georgio Moroder and see if you can't criticize them the same way and then ask yourself if it's brilliant or not. SSS was crucified for being the Anti-U2. They were trying to be pure Rock N' Roll in a Bullshit era. ZOO TV? WTMF?

[muaythaijunky]

@nkmcfrln oh i agree its simple. i do like the song tho. it goes good with tripping. but i dont think its as genius as every one says. but ya theres no hiding how shitty he is at faking.

[MrDipex]

Heaven?...lmao! what kinda' cat food are you smoking?..or your the only mo' fo' left in 2010 that still trips on acid..its a casio keyboard stuck on repeat with a group of idiots that have no moral to their lyrics. THATS all this is.

[evoferret]

@MrDipex :It's a lot more fun and entertaining than watchin' a bunch of punk's talkin fast on stage with no musical instruments but a reco' playa,sayin' how much more money and power than anyone else.....

[tooken]

Sigue Sigue Sputnik were way ahead of their time...i actually think their music would make more sense on this age we are living. Truely visionaries the electronic blended with rock the way they did it is just perfect, even the way they looked.

[0003429bigmick]

SO UNDERATED THERES NO TALENT AROUND NOW LIKE THIS

[waheex]

my vegas vamp - I love it. This was superb when it came out & now too

[kronik1973]

i always wanted to be in this band! nothing comes close to SSS!

[saibaTikLt]

@kronik1973 But you have to watch your butt. You know, they're homosexual.

[TheSaoirse777]

@saibaTikLt get outta ur cave u homophobic ape, they would'nt even shit on u if ya paid em.

[saibaTikLt]

@TheSaoirse777 Lol noob, they're fucking gays, learn english or die biatch

[TheSaoirse777]

@saibaTikLt hahaha u live in russia that says it all. ye are swo backward there.

[saibaTikLt]

@TheSaoirse777 What are you talking about you idiot? i'm not from russia, i hate russia, like gays.

[TheSaoirse777]

@saibaTikLt lithuaniaria whateva, no one gives a shit bout ur country that has offered nothing to the world , shame russia no longer owns you. now you have nothing going for ya.

[saibaTikLt]

@TheSaoirse777 You fucking idiot, lithuania offered much to the world, we are the first country who fought Russia and we won, we have many people who was the best in the world like - Arvydas Sabonis was the best basketball player in the world, Juozas Statkevicius is one of the best costume designers in the world, and much more!!! But that's not the point, we bin talking about gays, yeah? So they're still mental diseased.

[TheSaoirse777]

@saibaTikLt yea u are such a stupid idiot ,here listening to a band you hate, cause you think they may be in your wet dreams. oh yea btw the lead guy ,martin is gay , you still here wanking like the turd u are? lol. go see a therapist bout ur obsession with gay peeps , u sad git. i know u are from a primitive country still evolving, but for for ur dignity ,don't show how unevolved u are, get back in the cave u tosser.

[smellycatchris]

I had a ticket to see em back in the day but they cancelled, got a refund - really shoulda kept that ticket

[yardiesue]

Love this clip, been crazy about SSS since I was 8 and this brings back so many good memories. I know how I am doing my hair today :)

[TheNouveauxdecadence]

This is FUCKING HEAVEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[eyewoodsay]

cant believe i like this band...the second album sucked ,,,space cowboy my arse

[PAULLONDEN]

@eyewoodsay

Ahead of their fucking T.I.M.E......5 minutes of fame ,like todays spudheads.

[SuperKokroach]

FREAKY!!!! So good this music, but SSS is a ugly live-band!!

[facelessfiend6]

The 4 people that disliked this are really lame :\

[stupidbutfunny97]

absolutely awsome love sputnik been listening since the begining!

[goqwertygo]

holy shit they couldnt look anymore 80's than this

love this song but damn it! why did i have to be born in 1989

[septicbro]

-obvious lip sync (check at 1:17)

-people strumming guitars on stage while no guitar sound is coming through the speakers

Being freakish and all is fine, but there's a reason why people think of Sex Pistols and not of these guys when you say punk.

[flares]

@septicbro Who gives a shit if they're miming. Of course people aren't going to think of Sigue Sigue Sputnik when people say punk. Punk was in the late 70s, this was in the mid 80s. It's a totally different type of music. They weren't trying to be punks and also Sigue sigue sputnik never intended people to think of them when you say punk.

[septicbro]

@flares

Hey, I agree with everything, man. I have just one thing to add to that: Sigue Sigue Sputnik never really intended to make music either.

[HYPEROR]

better version of this 80-ies band hehehehe my boy would love this!

[ccm800]

Gaga did not invent freak!!!!

[hlopuska]

класс!!!

[russ9356]

great stuff pur glam

[Ankhsith]

they were supposed to play in Austin at Elysium ths summer (2010), but cancelled.

[mamavankimi]

i was so incredibly huge fan of Sigue Sigue Sputnik. Still have all the 12" releases! But when i see it now it still put a smile on my face because: 1} such great memories/atmosphere & 2} it is not good at all!!! :-) But f*ck it, i still love it.

cheers from the Netherlands

[Withnail1969]

@mamavankimi

in a sense it was good. the band was exactly like you could imagine a band from a 1980s cyberpunk sci-fi future might be like,which was the effect they wanted. with the video and sound tech of the time they did well.

[mamavankimi]

@Withnail1969 Good or bad is a matter of taste, but i mean his playback effort is the worst! The music didnt hypnotised the big mass, but it got me well and it brought me great memories. But alot of people of my time (born in 1970) dont even know them (here in the Netherlands).21st century boy 12" was my alltime favorite and my neighbours got really sick of this monotone music came so loud of my bedroom! i can dream this song from back to front and back again. Priceless..

[sussexpenguin]

@mamavankimi I couldn't have said it better!!

[googolplex1]

He didn't know the Lyrics? LOL

[osoxoso2]
