Alex has always looked a bit like a rebel but Andy seemed like such a nice clean-cut young man. Now he looks like someone who needs to keep 500 feet away from schools. So sad...
Don't listen to these fools in the comments questioning your judgement on reacting to this song. Granted, it's not for everyone but this song was a huge hit in the UK back in 82' and it was the bands second #1 single and it was the biggest selling song of 82 in the UK. It deserved a listen.
Yeah, #1 in Canada too. This song was big & it was EVERYWHERE, especially considering it was by group that was very much not in the mainstream. Similar to the infamous CHUMBAWUMBA.
Yes, this was a big hit in the US too, I remember it fondly. One of my best memories from college is going out drinking with my friends at school, and dancing to this song. Those were fun years.
@@josephbrowning4220 It indeed hit #1 in the US in April 83. Upon some research I was surprised to see this song prevented Michael Jackson from having back to back #1 singles with Billie Jean and Beat It as it landed right in between those to take that spot.
The band who did our wedding played this song at our reception many years ago and I'll never forget how beautiful my new wife Eileen looked as she twirled around on the dance floor holding her wedding gown up off the floor with one hand. Eileen's no longer with me, but she was an Irish beauty.
There are music snobs that will hate this song purely because it's pop, those people are not musicians because this is an amazing arrangement with many movements and dynamics but has a great popular hook and an irresistible singalong vibe. Not many are able to pull this off.
@@Uatu-the-Watcher Good point. Btw all the figures indicate that Rock and Country are on the way back in after 20 years of Hip-Hop ruling the industry. It's finally getting it's turn as dad's music.
Simply one of the greatest songs ever recorded. The key and tempo changes are perfectly executed and the mix of instruments is so well done. It never fails to cheer me up. I love the line on the outro where he sings "well, they're dirty" it's just perfect.
"Too Ra Loo" comes from "Too Ra Loo Ra Loo Ra (Irish Lullaby)", a song that goes back to 1913 and yes, it was popular in bars and pubs! Bing Crosby and other singers made it big hits!
Johnny Ray was a popular American singer, songwriter, and pianist in the 1950's... hence the lyrics "Poor old Johnny Ray... Sounded sad upon the radio, moved a million hearts in mono. Our mothers cried..."
Glad you enjoyed this. This song is usually played at the end of a wedding party disco when all the family are drunk on the dancefloor and just want one last song to sing along to with their shirts hanging out and wishing were young and carefree again lol
Stunned (happily) that you guys enjoyed this. This song really owns me, like psychically & almost physically transports me back to the first time I danced in public with my first crush to this song. ❤
The number of transitions and bridges in this song is insane. There's like three transitions just in the first 20 seconds. And the song barely settles on having just a single bass line and single arrangement at any part.
This band is a celtic pop band with huge influence from irish folk and traditional music but a band who were based in the uk. Great band and timeless track!!!! Great fun reaction and video!!!🤟🔥
Love you guys for giving this S tier!!! You nailed it!!! You have no idea of the impact of this song for us 80’s peeps!! This song got the bar or wedding sooooo kicking!!! I literally have tears in my eyes from the incredible memories!!!
This was huge in the 80’s. An English band that had a ton of instrumentalists. Violin, Banjo, and so much more. I met them when they toured the states for the first time, just nice guys that were so excited to see the US.
When ever I hear this song I'm transported back to the 80's, one of my favorites long live new wave. You should watch the video it's great I love them in bib overalls, the group is from Birmingham, England. 😊Peace ✌️ ☮️ Gary 😊
Same! weird how some songs can just... transport you, I couldn't put it better 😊 This song really owns me, like psychically & almost physically brain-shifts me back to the first time I danced in public with my first crush to this song.
Even though I was a metal head/hair band fanatic in the 80's, this song is a perfect example of what made the 80's such a great decade for music. I mean, when else would a banjo, fiddle, and tin whistle come together on smash global #1 hit? Even us metal heads loved it.
I like it more also. I do not hate the hair bands in totality. Of course, as all trends go by the end there were so many bands that were a fraction as good as some of the pioneers. Motley Crue, Bon Jovi, Van Halen (I will get hate for this one), are all so very talented. Not like some of the later ones.
Soooooooo many self righteous people rag on this song looking for something deeper like in a driven bass line or a drum solo. It’s a neat little ditty that has a hook and fits quite nicely into the early 80s.
This is absolutely one of the top 10 songs you most people think of when they think of a quintessential 80s song! Also, Save Ferris does an amazing ska version of this song! One of my favorite covers!
"a beer they shouldn't be having with a friend they shouldn't be seeing on a night they shouldn't be out". The most brilliant comment I've heard in a long time.
I met these guys at a Denny's in Syracuse New York just before this song became a hit. I was a bus boy and they came in late one evening, tour bus parked outside. They were traveling south from Montreal. I went to school the next day, and no one recognized the name. Two weeks later, Come On Eileen launched up to the top of the MTV and billboard charts. I told other kids and they said, "They wouldn't eat at Denny's." I laughed at them saying, "Even stars on tour love pancakes."
This song was HUGE my freshman year in college. Last summer, 41 years later, at a reunion of my fraternity brothers this song had all of us stop what we were doing and belt it as we sang along. Some will knock it but it's just such a fun song.
So many happy childhood memories. Close my eyes and I can picture long passed aunts, uncles and grandparents going crazy to this in smoke filled bars and dusty village halls. ❤️
Born in Birmingham, England (Ozzy's hometown) but Kevin Rowland (vocalist) was from Irish parents. So that gives you the "Celtic " influence. In UK and many parts of Europe, they were not a 1 hit wonder. They had several great songs...but obviously they could never top this. One song you should check out is "Jackie Wilson Said" a tribute to the great soul singer. Also "Geno" a tribute to Geno Washington, another soul legend.. My final, and probably my favourite, recommendation is Kevin Rowland solo song "Because of you" a beautiful ballad with Kevin's amazing vocal range
Kevin Rowland is a LEGEND.. Dexy's have been around for decades in one form or another but always with Kevin and Jim Paterson. Several studio albums and they are still recording today. The album "The Feminine Divine" was released only last year (2023) and the song 'My Submission' from it is amazing. I saw them in concert about 10 years ago and Kevin Rowland is still as mad as a bag of badgers! My sister introduced me to them in the early eighties. On the album 'Too-Rye-Ay' take a few minutes and listen to 'Plan B' going into 'I'll Show You', with the words and you'll see what a great songwriter Kevin Rowland is. Long time watcher, first time commenter Thank you for the entertainment. Jon
Great reaction! For a one hit wonder from the early 70's I say "Hitchin' a Ride" by the group Vanity Fair. The solo in the middle is killer! All the best, M-
friend dj played the club version was much better than the radio single 12 inch single had like 2 vetsions and a bside probably collectors now the 80s singles ive deen indie store were pretty big prices
Main man Kevin Rowland was born in Wolverhampton, England but has Irish roots - "being born in a stable doesn't make you a horse". Be ready for every Brit to point out that they weren't one hit wonders over here as they had two number ones and seven singles in the top 20. Their three studio albums in the 80s are all excellent.
The video made this song even more fun. These were the days of MTV all day on the television. I think this was the time before cable vision. We had a big huge satellite dish. The kind that people ended up using for goldfish ponds.
My nephew, now 33, when he was a toddler, had a baggy pair of toddler denim overalls. I referred to them as his “Dexy’s” because of what they wore in this video.
Among all the reactions channels in TH-cam you’re the real Reactionists!! Since you go about the music and not like some others that stops the song , not even to make a comment about the music , but the video !! I hate reactions video stuff since most of the music video it’s just a disruptive sequence of nonsense takes , to provoke an intended effect in the viewer , mostly negative or manipulated. You guys makes the right appreciation like real music lovers and musicians.
Fun song. Saw these guys open up for Adam Ant back in the 80’s. I can’t believe that with as many subscribers as you have that no one else is pushing you guys to do more Todd Rundgren.
This has always been a secret pleasure of mine. This has got to be one of the poppyest songs ever and I immediately started to dance sitting down while I’m having a snack before bed. Always loved this song and I’m glad both of you enjoyed it as much as you did. Unfortunately there will never be another decade like The Big 80’s, but I can say that I grew up through the entire era.
This comes straight from the Patreon vaults, I sang te chorus for alex and he didn’t recognize it so had to show it to him! Enjoy!
nice choice! I was 13 when this song was released...what a great flash back to my early teens.
It is Irish you are hearing!! Great song
Tura Luray means "goodbye, I will be seeing you" in Irish music
@janetroberts3202 Thank you❤always wondered what that means.😊
Alex has always looked a bit like a rebel but Andy seemed like such a nice clean-cut young man. Now he looks like someone who needs to keep 500 feet away from schools. So sad...
Anyone who doesn’t love this song is just dead inside.
I am not dead inside
@@laurabailey2092 Would a person know if they were?
I feel personally attacked
Agree
Sorry, I'm only dead on the outside, but I'm working on it.
Don't listen to these fools in the comments questioning your judgement on reacting to this song. Granted, it's not for everyone but this song was a huge hit in the UK back in 82' and it was the bands second #1 single and it was the biggest selling song of 82 in the UK. It deserved a listen.
It was also #1 in the US if I'm remembering properly. It was a long time ago now.

What happened to Eileen, Gerry?
Irish beauties live in your heart❣☘
Awwww, sweet story.
I’m sorry for your loss, but I’m so glad you have this beautiful memory
Dexy's played at your wedding? 😮
There are music snobs that will hate this song purely because it's pop, those people are not musicians because this is an amazing arrangement with many movements and dynamics but has a great popular hook and an irresistible singalong vibe. Not many are able to pull this off.
I had this song because my name is Eileen and I'm sure my sister Caroline hates Sweet Caroline for the same reason.
If we take pop out of our rock, we’re left with pop containing no rock.
Rockers need to write pop songs again to inspire new musicians.
@@Uatu-the-Watcher Good point. Btw all the figures indicate that Rock and Country are on the way back in after 20 years of Hip-Hop ruling the industry. It's finally getting it's turn as dad's music.
@@direnova6284 That’s kinda my point. It’s called classic rock, or yacht rock, or dad rock, but it’s all pop music. Great pop music.
@@eileendobbs8009At least Caroline was sweet! 😊
Hahaha!! I know some people will HATE this, but this is so Pure 80's!!! Love it!! It filled many a dance floor for years, being high energy fun!!
It's actually the better part of the 80's sound, and one of the few that still stands up today
And who cares what other people think? Honestly, just be secure in your own taste and ignore the haters.
I think it still would
For real. This is a classic! I suspect all the angry commenters are just named Eileen and had to endure a lifetime of references to this.
I love this song, and the video.
For a very similar experience, “In a Big Country” by the similarly named band called “Big Country” is a must. A top tier 80’s One-hit wonder!
100%
Great song
I second that suggestion. I love that song! (and this one too)
I totally agree!
Absolutely NOT a one hit wonder. I was there saw them and lived it.
One of the greatest Pop songs ever written ❤
Simply one of the greatest songs ever recorded. The key and tempo changes are perfectly executed and the mix of instruments is so well done. It never fails to cheer me up. I love the line on the outro where he sings "well, they're dirty" it's just perfect.
This song ages like fine wine.
Something about this song that just makes you feel good!
This is one of those songs where the first few notes create a rush to the dance floor. Pure joy.
This is played at every British party 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Certainly is!
"Too Ra Loo" comes from "Too Ra Loo Ra Loo Ra (Irish Lullaby)", a song that goes back to 1913 and yes, it was popular in bars and pubs! Bing Crosby and other singers made it big hits!
Wasn’t that the name of the album that the song was on?
@@scottNNJ I looked it up, the album is 'Too-Rye-Ay'
And Van Morrison
I remember Jerry Lewis & Dean Martin doing that, and they nailed it!
My mom used to sing Too Ra Loo Ra Loo Ra to us before bed when we were little ❤
Such an ear worm... I will be humming this tune forever. 😊
An 80`s classic here in the Uk and one which was garunteed to get you up moving and singing along" Always makes me smile.
A true musician and music lover knows how great this tune is it’s a classic in its own right 🎶
Johnny Ray was a popular American singer, songwriter, and pianist in the 1950's... hence the lyrics "Poor old Johnny Ray... Sounded sad upon the radio, moved a million hearts in mono. Our mothers cried..."
He was very popular in the UK. That's why the song Come Dancing by the Kinks also name drops him.
...and he had a severe hearing problem.
His nickname was the Nabob of Sob due to his emotive delivery.
He was the prototype of a crooner.
my dads johhny ray record he or friends drew teardrops under his eyes om the cover photo
This song stood out at the time. Stands up still.
This song was EVERYTHING back in the day.
Still is
@@SherryAnnOfTheWestexactly lol it still gets everyone in the local clubs up singing and chanting along 😁
Out of nowhere, that's where this song came from. It's so refreshing , upbeat.
Always imagine a pub full of people all singing this together, with their pint mugs held high. Love it!
An absolute banger! It deserves an A+ just for the line "you in that dress, my thoughts I confess, verge on dirty....awww come on Eileen "
The dj played this song at my friend's wedding reception...and the dance floor erupted in joy . Such great memories. Good choice!!! Live it up!!
Then he played a Riverdance tune and everyone started putting their foot up each others you know what.
In a Big Country - Big Country
Life in a Northern Town - Dream Academy
Hold Me - Thompson Twins
That's "Hold Me Now", and an excellent choice!
Thompson Twins were great.
Life in a Northern Town has been a touchstone of my life since it came out.
@@TeflonBilly73 Yep, way more than a one hit wonder though. Doctor Doctor, King For a Day, Lay Your Hands on Me as well as "Hold Me Now".
@@corbinhbucknerjr558 Not to mention "Love On Your Side" and "Lies."
It’s a masterpiece of pop music. Anyone who hates it has zero joy in their lives.
Nothing screams 80's like this song.
Glad you enjoyed this. This song is usually played at the end of a wedding party disco when all the family are drunk on the dancefloor and just want one last song to sing along to with their shirts hanging out and wishing were young and carefree again lol
Oh i love this song! I was 22 in 82. This was big and forany years after. Still love it. Had a friend named Eileen. Always sang this to her. 😂😂
This song is super fun, and catchy as hell. Every time I hear it, I sing along.
Stunned (happily) that you guys enjoyed this. This song really owns me, like psychically & almost physically transports me back to the first time I danced in public with my first crush to this song. ❤

There is such a thing as English folk too
EVERY SINGLE UK WEDDING. total tune tho.
I love that both heads started bobbing and feet started tapping IMMEDIATELY lol that’s what made it a great song.
There’s early 1980’s and late 1980’s music. This song is so early 1980’s … my college years.
Iconic MTV song
Most definetly!
Such a great video
Love you guys for giving this S tier!!! You nailed it!!! You have no idea of the impact of this song for us 80’s peeps!! This song got the bar or wedding sooooo kicking!!! I literally have tears in my eyes from the incredible memories!!!
One hit wonder is 867-5309 by Tommy Tutone. Great song for a road trip!
Indeed.
And hell for every woman who happens to have that phone number. It is a great song, none the less.
Lyrics from that song are ALL over my senior yearbook! I had to explain to my dad why someone would write “For a good time call…” 😂
Jenny Jenny, who can I turn to..
Moonlight Feels Right by Starbuck. You would never think a song with a marimba solo could be a banger.
This was huge in the 80’s. An English band that had a ton of instrumentalists. Violin, Banjo, and so much more. I met them when they toured the states for the first time, just nice guys that were so excited to see the US.

You cannot imagine how fun this was to dance to back in the 80s . So refreshing after all the disco!
Definitely S tier. I'd listen to this a hundred times before I'd listen to 80s hair bands.
A sign of good taste.
Or sadly most 80s R&B.
I like it more also. I do not hate the hair bands in totality. Of course, as all trends go by the end there were so many bands that were a fraction as good as some of the pioneers.

Safety Dance by Men without Hats!!!!
Yes-S-S-S!
Back in the day you couldn’t pass a pub without this blasting out. It’s summer on a plate.
Gotta do “Safety Dance” you can’t hold still to this tune by Men Without 🎩 Hats.
Yeah, but they have to watch the video.
Love this - I was a teenager in Boston (heavily Irish area) in the early 80s and this song STILL gets everyone to the dance floor up here.
A new wave classic, the high school years. Great times.
Us 80's teens were so lucky to live in the peak of MTV ! so many great tunes !
This song was HUGE my freshman year in college. Last summer, 41 years later, at a reunion of my fraternity brothers this song had all of us stop what we were doing and belt it as we sang along. Some will knock it but it's just such a fun song.
So many happy childhood memories. Close my eyes and I can picture long passed aunts, uncles and grandparents going crazy to this in smoke filled bars and dusty village halls. ❤️
Born in Birmingham, England (Ozzy's hometown) but Kevin Rowland (vocalist) was from Irish parents. So that gives you the "Celtic " influence.
In UK and many parts of Europe, they were not a 1 hit wonder. They had several great songs...but obviously they could never top this.
One song you should check out is "Jackie Wilson Said" a tribute to the great soul singer. Also "Geno" a tribute to Geno Washington, another soul legend.. My final, and probably my favourite, recommendation is Kevin Rowland solo song "Because of you" a beautiful ballad with Kevin's amazing vocal range
The entire album is phenomenal.
One of my favorites. Jackie Wilson said it should've had more hits!
you guys are probably one of the best music reaction channels on youtube. Much appreciated
As infectious today as it was back in the early 80s. Such a brilliant song. Perhaps the greatest one hit wonder of the 1980s.
They were a one-hit wonder in the U.S. They had several big hit songs in their native U.K.
Kevin Rowland is a LEGEND.. Dexy's have been around for decades in one form or another but always with Kevin and Jim Paterson. Several studio albums and they are still recording today.

This is an S-tier reaction from the boys.
Great reaction! For a one hit wonder from the early 70's I say "Hitchin' a Ride" by the group Vanity Fair. The solo in the middle is killer!
All the best,
M-
Their song "Geno" was also somewhat of a hit, at least in the UK. Worth a listen, it has a similar style. Reminds me of the band Madness.
Yeah Geno got to number 1 as well.
I prefer Geno
There are people walking around planet earth who have never heard this song? Whoa.
Always loved this one. Brit Celtic pop? Unique sound and irresistible.
Man!! This song and Rock me Amadeus by Falco packed the dance floor back in the day (still do actually) definitely quintessential!
Rock Me Amadeus is a banger. I love that song!

Lady Wulfruns high town. Come on you Wolves.
Great wedding reception song.
“IN A BIG COUNTRY” - Next 80s song from across the pond to review.
One of the best singles to come out of the 80s❣️ So much fun at school dances.
One of the best one hit wonders you would love in Spirit in the Sky. Def. listen to this one!!!!
I think they did that one.
I'll describe this song in 3 words fun, fun and fun
Awww...should watch the video to this song. So fun.
I was youngster in the two decades which arguably produced the best music ever!
"You Get What You Give" - New Radicals. Didn't deserve only one hit, but that's how it went.
I thought of this one recently. One of the best of the 90s.
The whole album is quality.
Automatic crank it up song!!
Most definitely
@@spicy321 In that case it was because Gregg Alexander quit the business.
The video made this song even more fun. These were the days of MTV all day on the television. I think this was the time before cable vision. We had a big huge satellite dish. The kind that people ended up using for goldfish ponds.
Great Summertime Song!
1982 was one of the BEST years in my life!
Great tune!
😊🕊️💃♥️🇺🇸🎶
Great song…can’t help but feel like dancing and moving to it…good choice
Seems like people either love this (me) or hate this (my wife). To me, it's timeless musical fun!
My nephew, now 33, when he was a toddler, had a baggy pair of toddler denim overalls. I referred to them as his “Dexy’s” because of what they wore in this video.
Dexys was slang for Dexadrine ie Speed they took in the clubs.!
I really only liked about 3 songs in the 1980s - this is one of them. So beautifully Irish !!!
What were the others?
They were English not Irish
Huge mtv song and video. Another would be Safety Dance by Men Without Hats also from 1982
Great song. I love these guys and this show.
One of the greatest songs of the 1980's (10 Ten of All Time) - Pure 80's "The Decade of Excess" ....
I never get sick of this song. Not even a little bit. Brilliant.
You got just as excited as I did when he switched it to an 'S'😅 You 2 are still at the top of this whole game. Thanx much.

G Jarr2, they only released one album as the New Radicals. Though the two main members have been active as songwriters since the group split up.
@@GJarr2 A band can have a long career with just one hit.
@@jmvioli they had at least 4 top 10 hits in the UK with 2 no1s. They may be one hit in USA but not their home market or Europe.
Fun song. Saw these guys open up for Adam Ant back in the 80’s. I can’t believe that with as many subscribers as you have that no one else is pushing you guys to do more Todd Rundgren.
They did hit one of Todd’s during a livestream, and they loved it. Been hoping they’d get around to more.

Great pub song
Massive hit and childhood favourite. They hit no. 1 with Geno too. A band that went through various incarnations.
Reached #1 in 1983, between Michael Jackson's Billie Jean and Beat It. During The Golden Age Of MTV and VH1, Unforgettable! :)
I loved your reaction. Your faces made me smile.. Such a great song and made wearing bibs with no shirt really cool.
This song elevates to S immediately when it comes on in a dive bar you been drinking at for 6 hours.
