I agree, the Music and Futuristic Style of 1980s was. From another Sphere. Steve Strange / Visage being no 1 in it all. But Since 80s , after 90s 2000s , until now 2024, Music is Rubbish and so is Fashion. So sad. Where did it all go. 😥💔
Steve strange is so beautiful always but here no makeup even and he is just beautiful.. look at his style. A lot of people had style but his is impeccable. RIP Steve. You are an icon and one of my forever heroes.
I’ve never seen the before. I’m sure I watched every second of The Tube 🤷♂️ Steve was a legend - and one of the most handsome / prettiest men I ever set my eyes on.
Sigh ***** Thank you for the first interview!~ I LOVE Steve and Paula walking into the Camden palace. TIme machine pleaaase, these people were SO beyond lucky to live this life. Steve should still be here, I hate that he is gone :-(
Oh, how fascinating to see this. That nightclub looked awesome. I was only 4 years old then. I wish I could have been older. Loads of my favourite bands are from that time. How I would love to be able to go back and see them and experience life as a young adult then. Paula Yates so astoundingly beautiful too.
God Bless Camden Palace - we raved our nuts off there from 89 up. Hadn't changed much to what is show here. What a place. Absolutely electric in there.
Some observations here: 'High Hopes' by the SOS Band (1982, Tabu Single, the first collaboration with Jam and Lewis) a massive jazz funk track that was part of the original Flicks in Dartford playlist, is being played when Paula and Steve enter the Camden Palace. Great track but would not have been on the playlist at Billys or Blitz. Also, the crowd dancing to that and 'The Anvil' by Visage, are all rather, well, ordinary - there's even a chap in a shirt and tie wearing a red jumper as though he's on a night out with office workers!!! The whole excitement of what was created down at Billys (I never went to Billys) and what I witnessed at Blitz (on one occasion only) was clearly absent at the Camden Palace. Sadly, I believe the whole "new romantic" era had passed, fizzled out like the trumpet ending on Torch by Soft Cell...
Visage was finished by then unfortunately. Members had left. That band had so much potential for world domination through out the entire 1980s. It's a shame what happened to that brilliant band.
The Managers of Midge and Billy were also the production company. They put Midge and Billy before Steve and Rusty , the rest were session but on a share i.e equal but sadly the managers saw Ultravox as the priority and The Camden Palace was a great success and DJ's were yet to be come the stars , by 1988 they were and the bands and the 80s were now also passe
Totally disagree. Aggression has always existed. The little cowardly pack rat hyenas of today who only attack in groups against one, they don't have real aggression. Just severe peer pressure, insecurity and temper tantrums. I blame the lack of testosterone, today. Real aggression, that could help save their life, has been bred out of them through indoctrination.
Steve Strange was one of my primary stylistic influences in the mid 80's; when I was 'reviving' New Romanticism and Futurism, as I related to him more than Boy George because he was straight. I was correct, right?
No Steve was bisexual but the interesting thing is he wasn’t trying to make statements about his sexuality like everybody seems to these days !!! Steve was about fashion his personality was all about image he kept his private life private that’s the way people should be regardless of their sexuality because that is just blurring the lines. Steve just loved what he did and didn’t care if others liked him or not his drive and enthusiasm didn’t need to be exploited others were just influenced by him because he was himself that was what was so endearing about Steve Strange.
Look how cool everything and everyone looked back then! The music was out of this world.
We are so boring now, the world is going backwards!

So true. I honestly don't know. It was a magical beautiful time.

So true.
He is very missed! A total legend💯🫶🏻
I know it was her style of interviewing, but I really wanted to tell Paula to get her shoes off his sofa
It's embarrassing and it hurts the knees on top of that; what nerve..!
I was only 13 and so in love with him . 💖 My youth Hero .R.I.P 🌹

This is great, so glad to have had Steves guidance. Greatly missed.

The degree of pretence is exquisite

Pleasure Boys - was the start of Hip Hop you don t stop
Cheers for this...never seen the 1st part before
lovely man
The face is painted as an optical illusion. A dark shadow behind a face looking right.
God i miss the 80's, nobody gave a shit about anything, no pretence just being

@@RustyEgan you know your stuff. Well done. The music was very good in the 1980s. Were you around in them day's.
Doron doron ?
He looks like a mix between Morrissey and Johnny Marr here.
Had he been talented, the Smiths would have needed just 3 guys.
Midge Ure left and it was game over for Visage. Then came the Beat Boy disaster.
what's the song at 1:35 ? probably one of steve strange?
Visage... The Anvil
It’s very techno sounding
Yeah our youth was more lade back I didn't thing we were that aggressive like today's youth would u agree?❤

He was bi-sexual

@@electrozaps Thanks electrozaps.
Somebody knows whats the name of the movie at the very end ? Seems interesting ... !

He appeared to live such an opulent life but by the 21st Century he was broke and living in a council flat back in Newport.
FISCHERSPOONER Stole their whole idea from Steve Strange/VIsage.
One word cocaine
Followed by Heroin for both. Sad.
What a mess!
