This maybe a useful or useless fact for anyone who is interested and doesn't already know. Mick Jones of the Clash was a member of General Public at the very beginning.
@socalkevinz Mick Jones was a founding member of General Public and his name is listed on the credits of the 'All the Rage' album even he quit the band part way through the recording. Too bad he didn't stick around with Dave Wakeling and Roger Ranking.
great music i miss driving around town with my top off the 308 and McLaren listening to all the great music of that age!!!! oh1 the things you could get away with when your young!!!!just don't get caught driving your mothers mark when she was supposedto be out of town with dad but was'nt,i was forced to only drive a fiat 2000 spyder or the brickln SV-1 for a month.after that fiasco i had extra keys made and hid for me even in saftey depost box that was mine and only i had access to it,GREAT!
@XoMissBriXo I agree with you totally - I still get goosebumps and butterflies in my tum listening to this. Great music from Brum West Midlands UK I feel the same way about the Beat's 'I Confess' Same singer. Wonderful music.
Ditto. The music industry has an agenda to use music to create materialistic, heartless, and meaningless messages. Please bring back the spirit of the 80s when words meant something!.
For me, this song always reminds me of an absolute chill summer day. Either your with your friends or the girl/boy your crushing on. And there is that feeling in the air that no other day can ever feel as good as this.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I was in Beruit while you people listened to this fag music. Sniping rug rats and laying the boob traps while sissies like you shook pom-poms and wore banana hammocks!
@johnph5 WTF? If your ASVAB scores weren't so low you wouldn't have been there. This was played all over the air force NCO clubs. I know cause I served and was honorably discharged. Back then it was "New Wave". Rednecks, punks, rockers all got along. Glad you weren't there to spoil the party. Maybe they will send your ass back.
@johnph5 While U were Humping Camel Dick back in the Big Lebanon when this was on your( Airwaves..),I was(! For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge/ling !) A 80s teenager , Shitting on Ronald the Clown Regan Propaganda Bullshit in High School ,Canada....And U was WHAT????O YA,...SUCKING CAMAL SHIT! RIGHHHTTT???!!!!!!PUSSY!!!
@azzilmaryann Dude i was born in 1965...I was just out of High School when this song came out. Graduated HS in 1983 when English Beat was still together. Dave Wakeling and Ranking Roger came form English Beat (look them up) and later formed this band General Public.
i am not an 80s era person. . . i wasnt yet born during 80s. .but i really love this song!!!!!!!...the beat,the rhyme and the message!..everytime i play this song,my nanny and neighbors cant help themselves in dancing because according to them this is one of the top played song during their times!!....I LOVE 80s SONGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
back when music was good and multidemographic. Now everything is all hip hop ghetto black ass shaking rap crap. and every kid looking like a ghetto thug.
@Abkeda ..oh! LOL!.. if u get a time machine,i will join you..i want to experience the Glorious 80s disco era....hehehehe....including the 80s outfits also!
@LTopomcFly Point is- they're fairly scary. I though Gaga was cool at first... then she came out with that Judith song.... O_o.... And don't even get me started on that Canadian disgrace
I had my Japanese girlfriend who was a hairdresser at the time put 2 streaks in my hair like the singer nobody new the style but we did...I love this era of mixed culture ub40 general puplic boy george and you know got to love the uk for all their inovations......
This was a time when you could dance to music produced by real artist with style and class. something that today's artist like lady gaga and katy perry don't have.
Hey brownies4you, I had the same experiance as you. Moved to SouthernCali., from Davenport, IA where this and modern english were huge, but out here in Cali it was brought to whole new level. Lots of great memories, it always brings a smile to my face when this comes on.
During the summer vacations of '85 through '92 my neighbor Darius would throw these huge parties where jumpin' music, like this classic, would pound from his sound system. Crowds of kids would dance and bounce and boink for hours. After sunset the air around his garage would be heavy with the aromas of Drakkar Noir, Lori Davis brand hairspray, and those "funny cigarettes". By '93 his parties were distant memories. He marreid in '94 and is blessed with five kids. Darius, we miss you!!
@brownies4you Hey, those parties don't sound unlike some of the parties my older sister threw when my parents were away. She was a popular red-head with feathered hair who knew everyone. I was a skinny, dork-ish kind of kid. The Drakkar Noir did it for me, of which i had the largest bottle possible, lol. When i bought it at that mall, as a teen, i was sure i had arrived... My mother (also a red-head) had all the lori davis stuff, purple bottles scattered throughout our little rancher.
@brownies4you yes sir those were the days i lived that same era had my new car camping trips, we young wild and free and letting the 80's music just flow through our partied heads
I'm sorry, but it sounds like crap. All the good shit I like about the original was taken out :( just my opinion.

During the summer vacations of '85 through '92 my neighbor Darius would throw these huge parties where jumpin' music, like this classic, would pound from his sound system. Crowds of kids would dance and bounce and boink for hours. After sunset the air around his garage would be heavy with the aromas of Drakkar Noir, Lori Davis brand hairspray, and those "funny cigarettes". By '93 his parties were distant memories.
