I met the band back in the mid-90s when they came into the restaurant where I worked. Honestly some of the most polite and delightful people I've ever met--I mean, if you remember that about someone from 27 years ago, that's a pretty strong positive impression.
Cobblers! You evidently aren't old enough to recall the period 1978-1987. Music started to nose dive post 1987. If you think 1987-97 was the zenith of popular music, you are deluded mate. Bands like XTC were so far ahead of their time, they were doing in 1978 what Pulp were doing in the mid 90's. That's just one example. The diversity and sheer volume of talent that was around from the late 70's to 87 was off the scale. People like Gary Numan emerged in the late 70's- and he's still smashing it out of the park and has been a huge influence on so many artists.

Thank goodness for the alternative music scene back in the early 90’s. Big hair band music was quite lame and this great song was sampling the Smiths, giving hope to better music to come.
I haven’t heard this song since the last century! When did it come out? 1990. I was 14 years old. Found myself thinking about it just now in my head and said, hey, I bet you tube has it. Damn it feels good to be right.
@MattC78 Wrong! “ The group is known for their hit song "Hippychick" (composed by Brinkhurst and also credited by Johnny Marr), which was a Top 20 US Billboard Hot 100 chart hit in December 1990”
I done monitors for them for one show. The band were fantastic, but the energy that these ladies had was breathtaking. Absolutely one of my best ever gigs.
I first listened to this when it was released because it starts with the Smith's sample and I thought my friend was playing me the Smith's and telling me it was something new.
As of the time I typed this, I hadn't heard this song in about 30 years! Reading about The Smiths' "How Soon Is Now," which this song sampled, on Billboard's top 100 songs that didn't enter the Hot 100, brought me here. Reading about "How Soon" helped me recapture a lost piece of the soundtrack to my tween years.
Andy Weatheral would surreptitiously blend into his Cheesey Quaver sets around that time, some would stop dancing question the ethic of dancing to a 'Pop' tune, shrug it off and go back to dancing the 'in-a-wheelchair-going-up-a-hill.' 91 was a good crossover year: th-cam.com/video/k3RzQ1b_c9w/w-d-xo.html

I loved this song as a 13 year old and still do.

Me too, was only 11 when it came out. It was so different from all the rest.
This song right here,. takes me back to my childhood 😄
Quit lying you still got loves for them 13yo. 😅
Goosebumps everytime.

1987-1997 is a period of music that will never be touched
1979 to 1997

Cobblers. 1980-87 was the zenith. From 87 onwards the music scene declined. If you weren't there in the early 80's, you will never understand........

Still have my cassette single..Love The Smiths Sample.

One of the greatest one hit wonders ever, Super Creative use of the How Soon Is Now guitar line in a sprightly pop record😊
One of my all time favorites ❤ Never saw the video until today. Love it even more. 2024

Bought this in '90 on CD. Classic.
This Jam just freaking rocks in Ibizia
Absolutely love this - the tune, and the lyrics. ✊
Soho and johnny marr just works
The Smiths (How Soon Is Now ) The Craft and Charmed 😊 I danced a many night at Sharkey’s in Blacksburg Virginia to Soho 🫶🏾 (Go Hokies) 90’s rules
Gooble Gooble. All dirt roads lead to Tech.
always loved this song, this video is in sore need of an official remaster though...
Dang , that takes me back to 16yrs old in Knoxville Tn job Corp
This song is perfect in every way. Always was and always will be.
This song is so great and an absolutely perfect anthem for 2022.
remember this song back when it popped up on the radio for the first time...i'm like WTF izzat? damn...now that's destined.
For me it was WHFS 99.1 in the Washington DC area.
We used to dance to this jam back in 90’ or so at club Faces in Bridgeville Pa. Great times that will never be seen again!
The beginning of the song is very similar to How Soon is Now from The Smiths
they sampled it good
@@starman700 yes, it is! I'm not complaining, because it is good that a good song reminds another good song.
Just a pure stone cool groove. Still Brilliant today.
This song is such a MOOD! 😎 I heard it at Whole Foods the other day and I was in a trance!
😂 you may have deeper issues seek medical help.
Always loved this song. When it first came out my GF at the time bought me a cassette single of it. Wore that thing out...
I had the cassette single too until somebody spilled their drink on it at a party. After that it wouldn't play right.
the tape or the GF
I miss being a teenager lol I remember hearing this playing in my sister’s room one day after school back in 1989? Lol damn that’s a jam

'I've been loving you since the miners' strike' has to be one of the best lines ever.

Very fun song
Thank you for this♥️ I haven’t heard this it came out. I was a teen. Such good music.

Such an awesome song. Danced once or twice to it in the 90's (or more). 214 LOSERS dislike this video.
i think it's classic..i m going to sing it at a bar/club someday
Reminds me of Beverly hills 90210
Filmed at the former Brainiac Club on Wardour Street in where? Soho of course. What a moment in time.
i can't remember if i had the 12" or the maxi cassette of this
Love this song Thomas linehan
She's trying to explain modern alternative folks are not the old school hippies . Thats my take on it 💪😇🙏💖😎👍
I had this tape!
Absolute corker .....top tune
Excelente música
Always amused me how the introduction is exactly the same as The Smiths How soon is now! ❤ top tunes
Oh my gosh, I described someone I know as a hippy chick then I found the song. Pure memories.
...............MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.........THA' DELICIOUS GROOVE.................
It's crazy that they sampled a song from only 6 years earlier.
I like soho
Why does the Beginning sound like The Smiths How Soon Is Now???
Because it's sampled from that song.
Wots not to like 😀😆😍🕊️✌️❤️

Is that The Smiths sampled in the beginning?
Yeah the track is ‘How soon is now’
I’m sure that I’ve heard that guitar intro somewhere before? Sounds very underrated.
It’s sampled from the Smiths’ “How Soon Is Now?”
It was used in kid rocks back from the dead
It truly is a Marr-velous sample...
It is!!!😡
Was Marr behind this group or something?

How soon is now?
Tim, if you want, I have a hi res version. Just in case you no longer have it. I hope all is well over there! :)
