This really should have been a hit for Noosha .Agnetha only copied (If that were possible) Noosha's vocal style when she recorded her own version of this song several years after this original .And yeah,Noosha does remind me of Kate Bush here .Agnetha ,Noosha and Kate -those were the days !
@missmarypickford To be honest I have all of Kate Bush's albums (except 'Directors Cut') and most of Abba's albums but I am less educated with regards to Fox's albums.I do ,however, have fond childhood memories of their singles (particularly 'Only You Can') from 1975.Watching this particular performance from Noosha (AKA Susan) really convinces me that Kate would possibly have been influenced by her look ,mannerisms and vocals.All artists,writers and musicians are influenced by each other .
She's the one Australian who doesn't make me sick. Now even Australians started to make me sick not only New Zealanders. I wish that Crowded House band would have never existed.
I like artists who not only have the nerve to go out on a limb, but have the talent and the imagination to pull it off. There's a price to be paid, of course. There's no mystery as to why Noosha Fox wasn't more popular. Nobby Geezer likes the familiar and the formulaic and that's where the big numbers are. But Noosha Fox is definitely an original, a perfect case. Of what, I don't know. But I like it.
Very interesting. Helium voice, just like Kylie. A floaty dress just like Kylie's "Can't get you outta my head". I think Miss Minogue modelled herself on Noosha.
I don't see what the big deal is with this broad. She's nothing to look at and there were a ton of better singers and songs than this from the same period. I am in the USA and she is unknown here. You haven't really made it until you can please an American audience. Until you do, you're just another cheesy, novelty Euro act. Agnetha from ABBA covered this and made it a hit. Sorry Noosha, you're a big nothing.
I love Agnetha as much as the rest of you do, but I prefer Noosha's version of this song. It's weirder and more interesting. I heard Agnetha's first, but I like the original better!!
It's "Hot pants and FEET". Not only does it rhyme with "sweet", but Noosha taps one of her feet at that point in the song.
Anyway, I have been in love with Agnetha Faltskog for many years, like a few million other blokes, I imagine. I always found this a very odd choice of song for her, not really suited to her more strident singing compared to The WInner Takes It All and Wrap Your Arms Around Me. Also, the arrangement in Agnetha's version is far too similar to Noosha's quirky original.
As usual way ahead of your time Susan ... wonder if you keep intouch with the other former members of what was Fox? Much like Marlene Deitrch, you seem to have gone into total seclusion ... leaving those whom count themselves as loyal fans with nothing but memories. Truly 'Only You Can' ... despite what 'Lady' Gaga claims ... the original and still the best. Loved this song, but Arista never really promoted it. Thanks for uploading it
Yes, hbotis, it is extended, it's 5:36 on the 12''. Unfortunately I can't upload it on here, but send me a private message if you're interested in the extended version.
Loved this song when I first heard it in '79, took me 25+ years to find the 12'' and 31 years before I got to see her perform it! Thank you youtube and of course to you who uploaded it!
I was looking for Foxx's version on youtube some time ago, and this is just fascinating. Can hear lots of Bowie in it-- what a surprise that Agnetha covered it. Noosha was pretty wild looking here-- is she on something???!!!
@snowball1988 Agnetha didn't copy anything, she just made a cover of it. Laura Branigan's "Gloria" was recorded by someone else before, and it doesn't mean she "copied" it. And there are thousands of similar cases of song that go nowehere when recorded for the very first time but only have success later, when covered by another artist.
Holdt oprindeligt meget af Noosha Fox specielle udstråling, og hendes indsats i gruppen Fox, men sangen her dør på hendes læber. Der er også et helt anderledes flow i Agnethas udgave, der er både er bedre arrangeret og produceret.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Agnetha's recorded at least good, and does not sing like a robot, and is more famous than this appeared that nobody knows, only you, and if you do not believe me, ask your parents who was ABBA, y veran howto are surprised!
agnetha didnt put her own spin on it at all, just because somebody is more well known doesnt automatically make them better.....so going by being more well known, say, that would make madonna or britney better than agnetha...if your going by how many people know of them alone....if nobody knows who noosha is then why has this video got over 9,000 views, plus other videos she was in have over 70,000 views...people know who noosha fox is....if you dont like this version then go and watch agnethas
i think they bounced off each-other, noosha was out before kate and she was said to have a copy of fox's 1st LP before she was making albums which influenced her, but i think after kate bush was out noosha appeard to sound a bit more like kate's style...
Wat me Rusty! Hmmm,,,,,you're a bit late, but its a timeless classic. I've seen the stage show and the movie, both with my daughter Helen. Sorry should have been +1, not looking at what I'm typing!
By this time Fox were no more, Susan & Kenny (Young), Herbie (Flowers) had parted with GTO label ... Noosha now solo had signed to Chrysalis while Kenny and Herbie formed 'Yellow Dog" & had signed to Virgin. Sounding very much like a Brit take on 'America', sales of eponymous LP (77) were disappointing; YD adopting a more Rezillos proto-punk sound which lifted the groups fortunes. HIO, gained Susan a new disco following, but lost loyal Fox fans, no one realised that Susan would just disappear!
Sorry to be pedantic but I think the Herbie you meant was Herbie Armstrong,not Flowers, because at the time Fox were around Herbie Flowers,the legendary session bass guitarist was playing for either T.Rex or Sky.Hope that's of help to you.
Sorry - you're correct. I was tired when replying to two postings at the same time ... one was on Sky - the other on Noosha ... Thanks for reminding me to be more careful!!
I'm a Goldfrapp fan and I'm aware of the Noosha Fox and Alison Goldfrappe likeness. I don't remember this track on it's release. I do have the 12" version which lasts for 5.40 approx. It's quite hooky song, and I like those Yamama CS80 synth swooshes.
This is a gem of a performance and she looks fantastic.
WOW thanks so much for this, I have a big thing for noosha and I have never seen this, and she is sexier here than in any other clips I have seen. I dont supoose you have any more of noosha not posted already?
Wow..I had no idea Noosha did this song originally, thnx for this.
