Mr. Flagio - Take a Chance (Italo-disco 1983)

[IKE66]

great - one of the best italo-disco tunes

[MYCATLOV3SME]

that means good in german f.y.i

[eddydamaskus]

...so geil...!

[TheItalodancers]

Oh my god, is really good !

BRUTAL

[azulbrital1967]

Superb Music!! Love italo-disco!!

[Futurepast1000]

@azulbrital1967 I agree with you, my friend.

Italo-DISCO is wonderful.

[CalvinKarass]

Jayzuz... You can like music without being gay... Hell you could dress like the village people for all I care. Besides, the differences between this music and Electro Funk are so blurred, I would even question if this is really Italo Disco, not that it makes this any less of a tune.

People have too much time to worry about dumb shit.

[djbonk77]

@CalvinKarass

This is italo disco and electro funk is different, and italo

has variation to the style but overall still different.

[CalvinKarass]

@djbonk77 Totally agree with you, was more answering the fact that someone suggested you have to be gay to like it. Personally I like both genres and they complement eachother quite nicely.

[sechsa]

i like this song, am not gay, but dislike gay people. ya´ll burn imn hell. belive that!

[smokebeams]

@sechsa

I'll be in hell dancing to some fucking great tunes then. ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

Pass the alkyl nitrite.

[sechsa]

@smokebeams if it only were like that... no. your soul will be caged in an animal body, for example in a pig body, because pigs also don´t care about genders and stick their genitals in every hole they can. no matter if other male or family members. they just want to feed their sexual senses. and so, want you, and so, you´ll get the chance to do that real good, next lifetime.

[smokebeams]

@sechsa

I'll leave worrying about what happens when we leave this mortal coil to bigots like yourself and just carry on living a good life here and now.

[sechsa]

@smokebeams that´s not "worrying". it´s true knowledge. good fun

[TheOrbitalia]

I am gay and I DON'T LIKE this song!!! ahahahhaa, it's a frolic, i'd like it (no, not gay)

[Futurepast1000]

I am gay, and I like all kinds of music, not just Italo DISCO music.

When it comes to people, forget about labels.

[TheFlagioitalo]

le meilleur trax de tout les temps !

[biomagno]

@ootijetheking ITALO DISCO is nothin else rather than PURE ELECTRO 80's FUNK!!! it does'nt matter if u're gay or not!!!! GETTIN DOWN ON IT WITHOUT PARANOIAS !!!

[vorticannon]

Does anyone know who Mr. Flagio really is?

[1488slav]

@vorticannon 3 man producer team = Aldo De Scalzi, Flavio Vidulich, Giorgio Bacco

[CarlPapworth]

I wish I was gay so I could love this song even more!!

[nichiryas]

@CarlPapworth sorry to reply after 1 month. You dont have to be gay to enjoy this song even more. what you say makes people who love this song "even more" like gays (indirectly), which im sure most of them are not.

[pixelissue]

Malaga Vice!

[Eatinbritches]

This song rules.

[PutterLee]

alone in the night, out on the street under a bright fuscia neon light i cry out, again and again: "Who ARE you, Mr. Flagio?!" but no one ever answers...

[PutterLee]

i ask and i ask but no one ever answers...

who IS mr. flaggio?!

[GETTOBOMBER]

@PutterLee Mr. Flagio is a group from Italy that produced a couple of incredible italo tracks in the 80's. They had an amazing modern sound that sounds fresh to this day.

[attialex]

@PutterLee: fla(vio) and gio(rgio) are two speaker of a private radio in Genoa, Italy. the same two are the "Art of love" with the song "Looking trough thr night".

[PutterLee]

@attialex thaaaaaaaank you

[thomastown]

born in 1988 love all the old house F88K the new songs they make me sick with overload of electric shit

[andrealbertin64]

anche questa ce l'ho che anni splendidi gli anni 80........

[LLLeeeeeeeee]

i love italo disco and I am gay and 24, but who cares? Italo disco and synth pop are great no matter who you are or what age you are ^__^

[hausigel]

super super dj tuwe



[loopsevents]

WHOUAOUOUOUOUOUOUOUOU



[PamYouFreak]

Oh, what's it gonna be? I feel it coming Down to the bone Let's make it work Or leave it alone

Sooner or later Enough is enough

 I've got to know If we can clean it up Keep it stron-gah! Keep it stron-gah!

I've got to know Oh, what's it gonna be? Let's break away Take a chance with me

[ootjetheking]

i'm not gay and i like this song a lot

damn people that want to label everything

yeah i like italo disco and i'm not gay

must be a shocker

[194cm112kg]

@ootjetheking it´s no shocker to me, i love italo and did not even think its considered a gay thing, atleast not now :)

[194cm112kg]

@194cm112kg alos if it is, i don´t give a shiiii :D

[istvanpraha]

what does this song have to do with being gay? Am I missing something? Apparently you werent alive when this came out...

[borjon23]

@ootjetheking

exactly what a gay would say

[koolfraser]

@borjon23 haha

[Caucasusdream]

@ootjetheking haha, me too. I am shockingly not gay, much to some gay mens dismay, but I absolutely love italo.

[GETTOBOMBER]

What means the first Word in the Refrain of the Lyrics?

We are wondering about since 1986 when we heard the Song first Time.

Does it say Hope, or Home ???

In this Time (1986-1987) this Song was running very loud on my small record Machine together with some other good Music like this one, everywhere on the Streets where I was going :-)

[UNTERKUNST]

@GETTOBOMBER I believe it is: "HOPE!, (what you're going to need)"

[PLASTINACA]

So charming and bubblegammish!

[aldoxyzable]

tubes were still live and dream ran on the rim of the four bit:

[52Tmacfan]

Id go to a gay bar if they played this shit

[NDLMBRAVO]

@52Tmacfan I would buy you a drink ;-)

[NDLMBRAVO]

@52Tmacfan I would join you and buy you a drink,

[Crowmusicuk]

All the homophobia on this thread is especially ironic given this is an italo tune and that italo and HI NRG have been staples of discerning gay discos for quite some time, not to mention many of the musicians were gay too.

[hsard]

This song is TREMENDOUS!

[fuddyboi]

This tune takes me back to that time I flew through space killing robots and shagging sexy aliens.

[NiklasNydahl]

probably my fav italo disco track together with Zed - "Plastic Love"

[RWE24081967]

ALTE ZEITEN!!!!!!SCHEISSE BIN ICH ALT GEWORDEN!!!!!!

[Nanikee]

I'm totally addicted to this song.

[killwize]

Chromeo ain't got nothin' on this!

[NDLMBRAVO]

@killwize I was thinking the same thing.

[killwize]

[DrBukcake]

[discomadame]

@DrBukcake Yes it is!

[dequadim]

FLAvio Vidulich GIOrgio Bacco, the producers of this song, qich is born here in my town Genova (northern Italy) in the far 1983.

[KrazeWorld]

[crnacpanker]

[tecnoworker]

Come fa' a non piacere un brano cosi' solare...cosi' movimentato...cosi' pieno di vita....cosi'.....ITALODISCO??­?

Semplicemente... f a n t a s t i c o....

[slapbassboy1]

ITALO!!!

[Jonnn79]

This song reminds me of walking through a carnival on a spring day, the smell of corn dogs and cotton candy blowing through the air. Love it.

[savetreeseatbeava]

I can't believe in the 2 years since I found this track it has gone from 8,000 hits to nearly half a million... the new hip kids have found it and God bless them for still having taste.... truly an awesome piece of music.

I think I might throw me another party as a mere excuse to introduce another 50 people to the joys of Italo disco.

[gre68]

priceless

[chatomix327]

hola saludos a toda la banda que le gusta esta musica de el high energye

[zebraattack]

I never realized this was a cover of the work Material did with Nona Hendryx (and I LOVE "Busting Out"). It kind of makes this song less magical :|

[neoxdj]

xxx

[WolfSpartan1]

Sounds like ET is singing this thing. Come to think of it, it is out of this world. So, it makes sense.

[1traviata]

Check your pulse if your ass isn't moving

[oustreee]

@1traviata For me Italo is more about listening and less about dancing - and I absolutely LOVE Italo

[cerikize]

песнья молодости.Студенческие годы.

[cerikize]

песнья молодости.

[a090006]

is this a remake from a song from Material or the opposit?

[feartactics]

@a090006 this was a cover of the Material song

[micheaven]

@feartactics This is not cover at all.......

[TomKayW]

@micheaven It is actually. A brilliant one, but the original is Material - Take A Chance.

[micheaven]

@TomKayW yes,sorry I just realized that!!!Material-Take a chance (1982)

[JacekRaketno]

oozes sex

[jucurtis23]

[dleetr]

[N0sPr4Yu]

[N0sPr4Yu]

@Ramazed its gaybar music

[vzclubbie]

@N0sPr4Yu You want gay bar music... go listen to elton john or lady gaga or some shit

[djalternegro]

@N0sPr4Yu

u r gay. face it. go find a disco listen to this tune, and go blow a dude.

[N0sPr4Yu]

@djalternegro sounds like your every day routine.

[TheCleborb]

It's playing a bit too fast...hooo.... slow down a bit

Other than that this track is pure brilliance, timeless even does not sound dated at all unlike 95% of '80's stuff (cheap 1st generation drum computers mainly)

Yeah this stuff is the shit

[71loic]

i loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeee

[esacnitsuj1]

OMG...I have this exact same 12" single. Same cover, same label. I was itno Italo Disco & Italo Dance back in the early 80's. Especially 1983. A lot of GR8 Italo Disco came out 1983 & after :-)

[MOXWELLDIAMOND]

TRUNK MUSIC

[LATEXDOLLTOMBOY]

@MOXWELLDIAMOND Can do U 1 better than the 15'S SUBWOOFERS in the TRUNK, U also Mount 2 pairs of those 6X9 BASS TYPE SPEAKER in the *FRONT DOOR PANALS*....You Will need at least 1 or 2 1,000 Watt AMPLIFIER to get started

[MOXWELLDIAMOND]

@LATEXDOLLTOMBOY WHAT?

[LATEXDOLLTOMBOY]

@MOXWELLDIAMOND People usualy put Honkin HUGE BASS SPEAKERS in the back,But U can get pretty good bass up front by adding 6X 9's INTO FRONT DOOR PANALS-Certain 6X9's have great BASS and TREBLE BALENCE-soo U can have that *THUMP UP FRONT AND BACK too*

[Ollietg]

Great 

[bonichorri]

15 people have no f***** idea about music...

[dandebonaire]

[tusan15288]

[TrainmasterCurt]

Only a Roland TR-808 could pump out that kinda beat!! Great stuff!

[n4n11z]

Buena Rola!!!

[RPW92108]

i love this song, its been much to long

[nzecureuil2]

bm. bm bm. bm. bm bm. bm. nice bass!

[simonconran111]

I keep getting in trouble for putting this on at house partys at 6 in the morning.

really loud.

People dont seem to realize im just attempting to give them the wonderful gift of italo......

[stiggyh]

@simonconran111 youre a misunderstood genious :)

[aminoplacid]

@simonconran111 This sounds like a familiar story. It's a def cut though

[nyarlathotep99]

@simonconran111

i'd suggest you're playing to the wrong crowd

[RiddleRiddle1000]

@simonconran111 i wish i was your neighbour - id wake up listening to such beautiful music thanks to you! :D

[braxtonmackenzie1]

@simonconran111 i totally understand

[Carthsting]

@simonconran111 No, it just you put it in shitty mp3 quality, and it sounds like a rolling bicycle cards.

[chicagoitalo]

@Carthsting Yes, play the vinyl.

[JoeLeToxique]

@simonconran111

Hello, even though it is a fantastic song I am afraid it is kind of misplaced at any house party referring to the people dancing there. Some years ago I was at a party with Legowelt and another DJ who played stuff like Kitbuilders, Mr. Flagio, Nice'N'Wild, I-F and so on. The people liked the music at that underground party because the atmosphere was more electronic music-like having nothing to do with any house music. :)

Hard to explain because you either feel it or not. :)

[jgcutts]

@simonconran111 100 people like this clearly your hanging with the wrong people

[djmusicjac]

excellent 1980s old skool synth italodisco, deserves a music award, awesome melody, one of my favourites

[stayhandsome]

body heat is by fokewulf 190

[acodike]

bodyheat from i-f, tyrell and ventura has a quite similar bassline

[matzomaniac]

ahhh man! so fuckin powerful! these analog machines hit u right where it's supposed to be!

[koolfraser]

moroder eat your heart out

[Aleksandar1210]

Italo disco forever !!!

[REVERSEPUBICWAX]

I can't stop playing this song. I think Italo Disco just grew me a moustache and threw me down the rabbit hole.

[TonyOneKenobi]

@REVERSEPUBICWAX Me too, randomly stumbled across this andnow cant stop playing it, awesome stufff!!!

[Italodancers]
