Cocaine's a helluva a drug.

[BalletBabyBoy]

[KaydeyRai]

This song is really beautiful and melancholy

[discomusic1966]

3 people are not flying like an eagle

[discomusic1966]

this is a super rare video jem of a classic Disco song largely overlooked by time,New York of 1979 with the disco era in full swing,thanks for posting this time capsule of 1979 and a time long gone but not forgotten

[2bewiz]

@discomusic1966 My pleasure - could not describe it better!

[diuga1]

@discomusic1966 GEM, please.

[nauort23]

More like Foster the Village People

[barzouf]

I want a time machine and be part of this video with Dennis. Wow, New York was awesome in those days!

[dirtyedna]

how funny...in NYC not one person walking around on a cell phone or a billboard with a .com address....anyway they should've shot some scenes in the village where this song would've been blaring out of all the gay bars !!!

[heathcol1]

@dirtyedna LOL true about the lack of cell phones how things have changed

[FirstChok]

1:16 Bob Sinclar sample this ..

[MRLoQual]

Always Hungry!

[BigCityUkuleles]

@garritmadman Yes, yes I was. :D

[13iluvcocacola]

I came here...Foster the People sent me here.

[moocow220]

thanks mark.....

[garritmadman]

Sent here by Foster the People?

[DeathFairy2468]

@garritmadman Yep they tweeted it, and I just stare at the video and had to go who is this guy. So of course I did my research. He must have influenced Foster the People.

[liljac0794]

FOSTER THE PEOPLE!

[worldwormchild]

foster the people brought me there 0.o

[slepenant]

VIVE GERARD LE NORMAND.... HA ! SI IL AVAIT ÉTÉ PRÉSIDENT !!!!

[hotgritz4sho]

@coldfreshair and if biggotted dumbass had a name it be coldfreshair.

[healhurt]

@hotgritz4sho Hello, I changed my nick from coldfreshair to healhurt. My AIDS comment wasn´t meant as intolerance. I am a gay man who´s been around the block. My comment was meant more as an association and as an observation - to ME the song captures that beginning of AIDS-feeling/scene etc. Take care.

[AussieRoadshow]

LOL, but good on him I reckon. If I saw someone singing like that in the street, I'd surely fling them a couple of bucks.

[crackedcraig]

I love this track, the era and Dennis.

[sratus]

the greatest lyric of the 20th century - "always searching, never perching"

[congaleader2000]

WHAT A FAG!

[liljac0794]

@congaleader2000 hahaha i was thinking the same thing

[pajskal1]

handsome ;))

[gilbertblaze]

I'm sure he was lip singing through the streets of NY so I give him alot of credit doing that!! walking through all those crowds..they must of been looking at him like he was crazy

GREAT SONG!!! glad I found it......

too bad he killed himself...very sad story

[emberglance]

always searching, never perching.

[teamchouette]

Looking for acquaintances/informations other than what can be found online about Dennis Parker for a documentary project - If relevant feel free to contact me through my profile. Cheers.

[Biograph1985]

@teamchouette I always thought the story of a hard partying gay man in a major metropolis at the dawn of AIDS would make a fascinating, though depressing, drama. I figured it could be loosely based on the life of Dennis parker.

[PERUTECHNO]

ir por las calles de New York entonando esa cancion como que todos lso demas lo ven de forma rara XD ... sinceramente ahroa conozco más de las calles de New York...claro en ese tiempo

[outtcat]

How cool. I only knew him from Edge of Night. Never heard this song. I was in high school in 1979 couple of blocks from where this video was filmed in Times Square. Darnit, didn't see mysel cutting class in the background. :-).

[Biograph1985]

This clip is great. The whole NYC/disco/homosexual/porn/AIDS nexus. This guy covers and entire subgenre between 1977-1984 all by himself.

[MassimoConnolli]

How this was not a huge hit at the time is a real mystery to me. Incredible track!

[fabbadeaii]

superh, would love to use those footage for our video,

retro disco tune - night noise team - you won

[NeilPiersRobinson]

THE theme song of the Dublin Fringe Festival 2010. Thank you, Dennis Parker...

[grahammcdonald]

Fan bloody tastic!

[ladyloveselectro]

@grahammcdonald Lookin' atcha, lookin' atcha, lookin' atcha, lookin' atcha, gonna getcha, gonna getcha, gonna getcha, gonna getcha,

[drtune]

He had balls walking through NYC in daylight doing this...

[Discomichel]

Nobody can be sexier than him !!!!!!!!!!!!

[Simon5005]

Oh, this is too funny! I never knew he had a singing career............I just remember him from a few porn flicks back in the 70's! I wish men still looked like this.

[mrphilove]

THANKS FOR THIS POSTING  GREAT I LOVE HIM

[mrowubukiri]

Masterpiece. Nuff said

[Strompy82]

[djeefje]

[crackedcraig]

Fantastic...and so sexy!

[cjs33139]

I love how passersby are like WTF... what is this guy doing? Man, the 70s were cheesy but gotta love it still. Just turned 41 and don't regret having lived through that era. :0

[hbotis]

@cjs33139 So right, what a hoot! Never heard of him b4 but glad I found him, late than never!

[stargate121]

Jay-Z should cover this song.

[discooriginal]

SO so awesome! thank you!

[btwentwo]

Wade Nichols at 1:13 with "lusty oompah" behind him… yes indeed. ALWAYS SEARCHING.

[btwentwo]

I have been waiting for my whole life for this… NEVER PERCHING.

[MONA93000]

J'adore...lol



[Baueresque]

Sheer fucking genius!

[a090006]

Brilliant song,a little bit sad,but so good!!!!Very funny nobody looks up when he does his singing,perfectly normal in N.Y.!!

[SoftRazor12]

[MinisterZdrowia]
