    Lyrics
    Well there's a great amount of strain
    About getting on that train
    Every day and every night
    The only thing that makes it good
    Is seeing my favourite sight
    Prance and flutter stride down that green escalator yeah
    When I'm getting off my train
    And my love is on my brain
    Every day and every night
    The only thing that makes it right
    Is seeing my favourite sight
    Crying in the night with the summer in her eyes tonight
    Fantastic day today
    Fantastic day
    Well I can find a funny feeling
    Funny as a smile
    When your mouth is all dry
    Why?
    Fantastic day today
    Fantastic day
    Well it's a fantastic day today
    Well it's a fantastic day
    I know I've lost myself again
    True love has past me by
    I tried to shave myself
    Be a happier guy
    Night and day
    I can see it in your eyes
    Now the summer never smiles
    On a happy honey day
    Am I being in the way?
    When I'm so in love with you
    I can't sit down and I cry in pain
    With night and day
    Fantastic day today
    Fantastic day
    Well it's a fantastic day today
    Well it's a fantastic day

    I was born in 71, raised in 81, and live in a musical time warp. Frankly I don't give a fuck. It's amazing how much really good music that just passed through the radio waves, effortlessly, all day long. great bands, musicians and singers. Haircut 100 was one of many great bands to listen to. You could listen to country, punk, metal, disco and pop all at the same time, and it would all be good. kids today just don't understand what they missed out on.

      I was also born in 1971 (Year Of The Pig!). Music used to be so good. It dropped off in about 1987 for me & it has never been the same for me since.

      Summer 1982. Just started sales career. Had somehow fluked a big deal with a company in Saffron Walden. Drove back to Chelmsford in company Ford Escort estate, taking the country route, windows wound down, belting this out as loud as possible from the state-of-the-art, factory-fitted cassette player! ha ha! Singing it over and over at the top of my lungs! It really was a fantastic day! And 39 years later? I am back in that driving seat feeling dead good about myself, listening to this. Oh... and still selling! Still loving it as well!

    What I love about Haircut 100 is the sweetness of their music. Bright and, to me, innocent. Probably representative of my age when I discovered them and other 80's bands forever making their indelible impression on me musically.

    Thinking back on 'Pelican West', a lot of effort went into those pop arrangements, a few with jazz-flavored instrumental parts. When I wore the album out I was just a giddy preteen who loved the fun sound, the quirky videos, and the cutest frontman who turned me into a total Anglophile. But they were a genuinely talented band. I like Heyward's solo work, but I wish Haircut 100 would record again...

    Legendary song. Released when I was just 8 way back in 1981. Still sounds like one of the greatest pop songs of the 80s. H100 had such a boys about town, urban, funky, groovy white soul vibe before Style Council had run with the idea more. Much better than professional posers like Duran Duran and Simple Minds etc.
