Green/Gamson/Potoker FTW!!!

Better than Madonna....😌☺️

Gail Ann Dorsey in Prison gives this video a surreal edge. This song is bliss.

It’s awesome how Green Gartside and David Gamson could project their style onto other artists like this! The Scritti Politti vibes here are unmistakable and I absolutely _love_ it!

Bloody hell! 41 years ago and sounds fresh

ah enfin de la funk merci je connaissait pas

Wow, even in the eighties they had woke sjw videos

The perfect blend of Scritti Politti and Go West you never knew you needed!

Give me this Adele over THAT one any day. (And Rachel Sweet - another favourite voice...)

Don't you just love Green Gartside and whatever crack he was smoking in the 80s that made him write all these super hits?

Someone needs to upload the b side of Button Up!

Lover To Fall!

This song really captures the groove of the 80's.

very raRE 80'S CATCHY video THANKS SO MUCH!

Denim Is The New Black

Punk???

Wow, it's a sunny morning and listening to this is like going back in time to 1980-whatever :-) I remember hearing and seeing this video once only in the 80's, sugary sweet Scritti Politti and a hit they could have had themselves. Thanks for posting.

Wow! Catchy!

OBVIOUSLY Gamson's producing. All those keyboards and arranging sounds just like "Lover To Fall"

Scritti Politti RULES!

Oh my god!!!! I'm the biggest David Gamson fan in the world AND I'VE NEVER HEARD THIS BEFORE. I'm crying with joy!!!!!

Took me forever to find this track.

Yep! :-)

Out Now! 2?

Thumbs up if you came here because of The Babysitters!

Thank you thank you thank you! I am so happy to see this.

Wow, I sort of love this! For this style of music this is great, a lot better than the usual. It's more than that, the bridge reveals this is art. Dark NYC art like what she came from, more or less. Why couldn't this have been a hit? I would have loved to hear this on the radio and seen this vid at the time -and I'm into much harder core shit but this is alright.

Look up the Contortions - No New York - and realize that Adelei Bertei could kill every one of you.

it looks like as if she had lost "the battle" to Lisa Stansfield....

get yo funk on

1:47-1:51 LOL... the look on her face is priceless.

they need to release a collection of their recordings. a bunch more supposedly exist... The Bloods' "Button Up" is perfect early NY dance funk-punk, like Konk or Liquid Liquid.

Whoa!!!! Fantastic

Love this stuff!

Did you like all the great punk bands like The Cars, The Knack, The Police and Dave Edmunds etc.?

Shit.

I had only ever heard of her because she had sang backup on some Culture Club recordings and I read a small article about her. I remember that she thought George had a talent for conveying a song with just his voice yet she "...failed to see what he was confronting." (with regard to his persona -image). Now I'm so jealous of her career that she worked with two more of my faces, Scritti and TFF! Have to say that I really like this song but her solo stuff bewilders me.

I had this song on a double compilation album, but I don't remember this video, which reminds me of the Yazz (remember HER?) video for "The Only Way Is Up"...

sounds like a track that madonna rejected

That sounds like the shoop shoop song from Cher.Disgusting!

strange considering she was playing guitar in the contortions before this..

Firstly thanks to Johnnyjane1 for posting this! It's great when you uncover an old gem like this that you haven't heard for years. Still sounds good, should have been a hit. A good example of the pioneering production work of Gamson and Maher. To this day I've not a heard a cleaner, crisper sound than the one these guys invented.

Really? What punk shows were you going to in 1980?

Wow, I wish more modern bands could get away with being this far out. It's too seldom we see innovative stuff like this.

This song sounds very dated and generic. I think her best song is "The Green Suit" from her Little Lives album. It's an amazing song. Great story and inspiring vocal.

I have looked for this for years , quality song this Once again thanks to johnnyjane for sticking it on . So much music would be lost forever if it wasnt for youtube . You cant get this on napster

i'd love to see her and angelo moore in a live duet!

arif didnt produce. was written and produced by green and gamson

yeah yr right - Green wrote it and produced it too
