@@lindavenne8038this was really part of the New Wave/New Romantics era, which Punks were part of, we also listened to ska and dub reggae too if you don't remember
It took me all these years to realize what George was doing here. He was doing call and response...with the drums! Everything he yells is then played in exact detail on the drums. Mind blown...
I love this song..grew up watching breakin..I’m 41 now..I played it for my nephews who are 2 and 3…they loved it and started singing and dancing along after hearing it twice..❤️❤️❤️💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻
well, kids catch on quick once my mom & visited my brother & his 2 year old watched using her digital camera don't you know that child caught on & was using the thing not long after?
Worked the door at a small club on Long Island in the '80s with a dance floor, and this song would ALWAYS put feet on the floor. It's also one of my personal favorites.
@@blaakheart8 In which is very talented in music at that time. Some think that this was African music as one friend said to me. Hearing this back in the 80's I never knew who did this music as I had Shazam it and then look it up on TH-cam a music video I never saw or it lease it had one until now. As the music of this is great of the beats.
I'm pretty sure when this legend made this song he never thought he would have a big influence in the hip hop/ break dance scenes in the early days of the 80s in LA and NY
Oh how I Miss the 80's take me back there please. I've had it with the 2000's and anything after I want to go back to The 80's where I was the happiest.
This is a classic! They really need to give him his flowers off of this song alone because I swear no matter where you are or what you are doing when this song comes on!! You just dance!!❤🥰🔥💥🎉🥳🤩 it literally brings a smile to everybody face young and old❤
This song is so important to my musical growth. Found via Breakin’ 2. Which also shaped me so much. I still play this in 2022 to pump up my 10U girls softball team
My very first dance audition was for the Alvin Ailey Dance Company in 1990 to this song and I had the pleasure of dancing in front of Mrs. Debbie Allen! I was offered a position but, decided to go to school for business instead! This brings back so many beautiful memory's for me and my love of dance!!!! ❤
...wow!! ...I had the fortunate honor to dance in front of Janet Jackson (for her Rhythm Nation Tour), May of 1990 at MSG....I wasn't chosen, but to see Janet & her team EMBOLDENED me! ....success in your Business, to you..... ; )
Oh my God I love your story. Debbie allen? Business? So many questions. I actually had the extreme privilege and pressure of being a lighting technician in several nightclubs during the height of this song which lasted half a decade. I think anybody who knows this song remember something special in your life about it.
Breakin, Breakin 2, Beat Street, and Barry Gordy's the Last Dragon were my favorite movies growing up. I learned a life time of great dance moves from those movies...lol
Malaysia 80's film also used this track on the breakdance scene .... and the film title was "Gila-Gila Remaja " - maybe if translate to english it's become "craziness of the teen".
Back in the day 92 ktu, 98.7 kiss fm, hot 97.1, 107.5 wbls(black liberation station), i used to record them onto cassette with my stereo hooked up to cable tv with a adapter for a crystal clear sound 💯
In this song we became the champion in a dance contest year 1985 in olongapo city Philippines. I was 15 then and it was one of the best moment of my life I'll never forget.😁
Man bro I’m 2000s baby and remember my parents playing this shit and I’m supposed to be asleep cause there’s school tomorrow and I peek my head out and my mom is having a house party with lights flashing. God bless this song lol
i remember when they played this at a new wave club in 1983 when i turned 21 in san jose, calif at the CABARET on new wave thursday nights in San Jose, Calif, the best time of my life, this song was our jam, it always packed the dance floor.
My relatives working in Germany brought a cassette tape. then it was the year 1985. There was this song. And I searched for years. think about it, now i know that song
Wow, to learn that a drum scholar with intrinsic sounds and beats is what marvelled me to breakdance year's back. It was the din dada that got me up and styling. Much love 😱
80's were a amazing Time. So much new stuff. Everyone tried something new. Lucky i was born 1976..and even in Germany with Krautrock and Kraftwerk. Would not Change it.
I danced to this song hard when this song first came out at the Old Exit Bar in Chicago on Clark. Frikin Awesome and I’m soon to be 61 and just played it and danced to it! I turned this song on a few years back to my kid that’s 18 along with The Cramps, Ministry, The Smiths and a whole lot more
They used to play this at the local roller rink I used to go to every Friday and Saturday night here where I live. I never knew what it was called or who did it, but thank Jeebuz for Google, baby!!!
Evil Gunz, I really did LOL when I read your comment because I was quite pleased with myself when my hard work paid off and I was able to absolutely nail all of the lyrics, even though I never knew what in the hell I was saying. I recorded this song off of the radio in December of 1983 when I was 12 (recorded it on my Panasonic dual cassette boom box, lol, of course) and listened to it endlessly for days and had it. I did go on to buy the 12 inch single of this song in the summer of 1984 - I bought Din Daa Daa and also the 12 inch single of Jam On It, ha!
This song brings back some VERY happy memories of a holiday in Poitiers, France in 1984. Veronique Romero if you see this message, please get in touch with me!
I’ve never seen this video and I grew up in the 80’s and used to break dance to this! Lol, I figured it was an African artist for some reason and it’s a white dude! 🤣👏🏻👍🏻👌🏻 no matter, it’s a great song!
It's 2024 and still bangin this..❤
This song was the ultimate break dancing song in the 80's.
For punks too, i used to dance to it like crazy!
when this came on in the dance club we would go insane
💯
This song made me want an Xbox 360 in 2005

🙋🏾♂️ This song was sampled in many Hip Hop songs. This should be included in the Hip Hop museum. ✊🏿
Yeah mate . The Roots covered it also .
Was the ultimate Breakin' song!!!
That's right!! I used to Break to this!
Omfg how hard it was trying to find this song based solely on the lyrics, lol! Just came into my head and I NEEDED IT! So glad I found it! Righteous.
Enjoy brotha.....
Me too. Haha. Omg.
Lmfao 🤣 me too and tryin to spell din daa daa correctly
ME TOO
Me tooo mad from the movie Breakdance 2
It took me all these years to realize what George was doing here. He was doing call and response...with the drums! Everything he yells is then played in exact detail on the drums. Mind blown...
Sammmmmeeee!!!
Ca Hiker it all makes sense now 🤯
Like George Benson does with the guitar.
Wow!!!

Love this song!! Used to dance to it in the clubs!!! Wow...I remembered it today. Classic...❤❤❤
I'm about to b 43 nd he still rocks.
Hes hipe
well, kids catch on quick once my mom & visited my brother & his 2 year old watched using her digital camera don't you know that child caught on & was using the thing not long after?
80's babies untie 😁
This is one of the songs that deserves a golden award for originality ! No wonder it was a huge hit !
Between George Krantz and Kraftworks my German family had hip hop on lockdown in the 80's. 👍
Yup origins..
Computer world was my favorite for years way back in 1981
You mean George Kranz and Kraftwerk.
Worked the door at a small club on Long Island in the '80s with a dance floor, and this song would ALWAYS put feet on the floor. It's also one of my personal favorites.
Do you remember any other songs that would get people going crazy? I’m trying to make a playlist for my mom :D
when this came on in any Manhattan dance club we went wild
It's so awesome that this German pop hit was the hottest thing on the streets during the era of breakdancing
German superiority hard at work, thank God they could channel it into something else
Piggybacking a bit on the success of Kraftwerk opening that particular door. Lol.

This is true...
Agreed
Yes it is!
And all the creativity it spawned. Can’t even watch breakin’ for without hearing it. Badabababa!!!
Not really but OK
I'm pretty sure when this legend made this song he never thought he would have a big influence in the hip hop/ break dance scenes in the early days of the 80s in LA and NY
One of the greatest break dancing songs ever!!!!!
I always hear Ying Yang Twins rapping shake when this song plays lol
@@djcrystalclear420 nope.
This is one of the greatest songs ever written.
Sid Dasquid but what was written? Sound effects? 😂😂😂
Yes because a 2 years old wrote it 🤣
@@Ardian230 still fire
@@Unknown-jx6kc Maybe it was "written" rhythmically. Either way, it is one of the greatest dance tracks ever produced.
@@Ardian230
Exactly!!!😂😂😂
Freaking awesome. Ahead of his time. Took people years to realize it was all about the drums.
was it? or was it about the power of the voice?
The man is bad ass hell n beats with the brother.
He is the GodFather of Hip-Hop. Fuck what you heard.
always has been
Everyone interprets their own thoughts IN THE music. Everyone has their own memories with the music
Best song ever. You don't need words to make good music.
Was 19 and in discotheque this song was sick 🤩
Oh how I Miss the 80's take me back there please. I've had it with the 2000's and anything after I want to go back to The 80's where I was the happiest.
perpetual61 me too was the hotest decade for music,hip hop dance breakdance. never get it back
perpetual61 Let's Get A Time Machine So We All Can Go Back In Time And Never Look Back.
perpetual61 yeeessssss
@@SBrown67 crazy 80s
would love to go back to the 80s too.
This thing proves that you don't need to write sophisticated lyrics to create a hit. On the other hand, perhaps this IS sophisticated :)
On Betelgeuse IV this is considered Shakespeare. On Arcturus this is considered highly offensive.
Classic MTV hip hop video 1983!!!
Stumbled on this by typing random shit into the search bar 🤣

Bro...you are living the dream!
That's awesome
Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo brought me here!
That's what made it the most famous!
Love this song can never stop listening 🤩
This song makes me wanna put on a bright neon track suit and play tunes on my portable boom box... from a cassette tape!
This is a cult track...80's music!

It's got lyrics, it's his own language lol
I thought they was Puerto rican
In the 90s every break dance competition would start with this song🔥🔥🔥
This was so creative. Still today gets me dancing 💃🏻 great jam. I remember breakdancing to this. learned the Breakin moves lol
This is one of my favorite favorite songs.....I LOVE THIS SONG
This was the break-in song when I dance to House Music. I am 50, but still will go at it when this breaks out!!!!!!!!! LOVE IT!!!!!
This song comes out when I drink and try to break dance in my mid 40s
Lol yep same😭😂
Lol. That's great. I do the same. The booze fogs my head and I forget the limitations of my forty-something frame.
This is sick!!!
But I love it!
Makes my adrenaline running high! 😜
Greetings from London, UK, from white haired, 58 years old guy! 💕
Oh yeah!! Loved the movie that used this song: Breakin' 2, Electric Boogaloo!!!
I'm a tad late with this reply; but, yesssss!!!!
Thanks for the movie recommendation!
Breakin, Breakin 2, Beat Street, and Barry Gordy's the Last Dragon were my favorite movies growing up. I learned a life time of great dance moves from those movies...lol
Best MOVIE OF ALL TIMES
Malaysia 80's film also used this track on the breakdance scene .... and the film title was "Gila-Gila Remaja " - maybe if translate to english it's become "craziness of the teen".

So soulful. Germans in the 1980s were really obsessed with Black culture, style & music. And Black American soulful singing.
Wait . .what !?
Drummer's will understand this. Rhythm and beat. Timing is absolute.👊
This song was one of the breakdancing anthems.
cant believe this dont got a billion views
80's in the hood. Break dance y'all.
rip..shabbadoo
Crazy 80s .. I didn't expect either that he's German
Those sunglasses used to look futuristic but now they just look 80s 😅

This track, Sexomatic, 19 and "you're the one for me" arrived at the right time for me, all superb.
this is the best ever
This song was the shit in the clubs I California back in early 80s. I remember the very first time I heard it. NOTHING like it
Was a No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play Charts. But Bubbled Under the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 110. Great and cool track
And was #61 R&B.
Welthit👍👍👍👍
