I loved the song back in '84 and still love it now - January 2020! Funnily enough, I watched Murray last week when he appeared in a full episode of Heartbeat. This police series ran on British TV throughout the 90s and early noughties.
Murray is a great entertainer. I learned to play chess when I was 6 years old, and love the game. When this song came out and hit it big, I was a happy camper.
My brother first introduced me to this song when I was only a teenager and I totally loved it back then, watched it today (which is not the first time since then) and I love it more than ever....means all the world to me, thank you...let the great music roll forever👍👍😊😊
***WOW Just wow!*** This song was so huge around the world and it totally reminds me of the very few first days of MTV! I remember the day I heard it, I was in a big video game arcade (anyone remember them, lol) my God did we have fun in them when they first came to Michigan north of Detroit and they were $.10 a play (!) and we played for hours back then. I miss that time of my life, how about you?
In 80's I immigrated to USA 🇺🇸 form PAKISTAN🇵🇰 via Belgium &those were good old days in Brooklyn! Thank you for sharing this forever young classic! Ps : i been to bangkok many times & its a great city
Исполнителя никто не знал? Да ну. Мюррей Хэд, между прочим, пел Иуду в Jesus Christ Super Star. А это была главная роль (Христос в либретто на втором месте в списке).
@Mark C I am an American who enjoys this video. The setting is beautiful. The mistress of ceremonies speaks German. May I assume ZDF-Fernsehgarten is part of Germany? Architecture and pools of blue water are beautiful. I suppose Google might lead me to the correct country, but I would appreciate someone helping me here with a few details. Where is this beautiful place?
You know someone hears this song for the first time and goes 'omg this song is so problematic, i need to make a 20 part youtube series complaining about it'. :D
ABBA wrote it.. or the two BB:s Bjorn and Benny.. so its an ABBA song they let Murray Head sing in chess. The chorus singer is another swedish artist named Anders Glenmark 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I've spent w-a-a-a-y more than one night in Bangkok! I love the city and the Thais ('cept their sh*tful government). One of the world's GREAT cities. May it soon recover from both the junta and the virus. It's people deserve more.

This is, quite simply, one of the great songs of the last 50 years.
40 years
Lmaoooooo
ABBA made this song, that's why it's so good.
The one thing that hasn't aged is Murray Head's voice... He sounds great
👌🧡🪴🌞
Not Lip sync ❓️?❔️?❓️
@@icosthop9998 no it’s only the background that’s prerecorded
@@jalsbrook4475 yeah and he's not singing literally any part that has singing
the only vocal he's doing here is the talking verses. the hook sounds like the original tracks from the record
Great performance. He still sounds great and the use of the original 1984 chorus was a smart move and meshed well with his 2019 vocal performance.
At german ZDF nearly no one is allowed to sing live.
Thats Not True, DJ Bobo is all the Time singing live
Murray is amazing. A performer, an actor and simply wonderful.
It’s a backing track…he’s not singing…only speaking !
He is having such a good time
So is everyone else .
@@v.dargain1678 it had to be so fantastic to be there
@@v.dargain1678 7⁷ú8
yeah bless ‘im
Indeed he is having such a good time, and he deserves it. He gifted us a nice song and I really enjoy seeing him enjoy it.
He still sings it like 1984 top notch 🙏🏽
At german ZDF nearly no one is allowed to sing live.
Das stimmt nicht, DJ Bobo singt dort immer live.
3:06 . Even the spider in the top-right corner was dancing…

Love it again in January 2021!
Bangkok girl is here! We always love to shake with this song! Awesome💕💕
So, im reading the comments and realised that we are ignoring the spider at 03:07
@honestliar The true star. I think he runs the web-site... 😉x
@@RoonJazz hhahhahahaha!!
the most interesting part of the video
@@RoonJazz xD
당신은 나의 십대시절을 풍성하고 아름답게 이끌어 주셨습니다
감사하고 또 감사합니다
Murray still getting them straight about it . Thanks for uploading . 35 years later song's still a jam .
0:50 yep.
The jumping lady in the white dress at 1:40 sure has the time of her life.
His younger brother, Anthony Stewart Head played Rupert Giles on Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997-03). Quite a bit of talent in that family.
This put a huge smile on my face. So glad he’s doing amazing! The beat is so edgy even in 2022
0:49 including, 2023.
3:06 Even spiders dig this jam.

Ach...da krieg ich Gänsehaut bei den Songs, einfach geil !!
Happy 😃 35th anniversary, Murray Head.
I couldn't be happier .

I guess you can say that. Here's a vid at my house. th-cam.com/video/KcLLVT8kC60/w-d-xo.html
This was a few years ago but he looks fantastic and his voice is still incredible. This was awesome. Thank you Murray!
singing live as well!!!
Garry Field 0:49 👍🏻
"talking" would be more appropriate verb
Only the talking parts are live, the rest is playback from the track
The chorus isn't sang by him anyways. It's a swedish producer called Anders glenmark
Wow he still looks great and sounds great!! This song came out in 84 I think I was 12.. still love it , still listening to this!!
it's just beautiful how he just took the microphone to say all this with music.
Dudes still got it!!! 💜
Im getting emotional watching this...i love this guy. What a fantastic song
He looks so awesome when he puts his hand in his pocket towards the end.
Wow! He sounds really good!

Песня детства-юности. Песню знали многие, а вот исполнителя - никто. Классный трек.
Исполнителя никто не знал? Да ну. Мюррей Хэд, между прочим, пел Иуду в Jesus Christ Super Star. А это была главная роль (Христос в либретто на втором месте в списке).
Murray Head singing this son never gets old. SEN-SATIONAL!
Oké of the best tracks of the eighties.Still got that great voice.Timeless Track
Good, I love it when they get older but still sound great and have great big smiles on their faces ♥️
At german ZDF nearly no one is allowed to sing live.
Major props for live vocals
At german ZDF nearly no one is allowed to sing live.
The 80's was so awesome!
Very good song! 🙂😊 And it is sung as good as it was sung in 1984! Nostalgy...
I actually think I would have wet myself in excitement if I was there and saw this absolute legend walk out and perform this!

好歌+原唱+寶刀未老+歷久不衰=精典傳奇💯
what a great moment, great music, great video - man from s.korea
He looks like he is having fun. It not often for an artist to be remember after so long. It brought a smile to my face, when I first saw this.
I wish I could see this live omg so cool!!!!
If only he sang this live in Bangkok lmao
LEGEND!
before covid-19....
i love this song a lot !!!!
I like that he's literally singing this himself❤🎧🎧🎧🎤🎤🎤
Yea like Rambro...a one man army
@@LovinMotha4ya Absolutely!
Singing the verses yes. The chorus is playback and isn't sang by him in the album version anyways
@@wm1573 I’m sure he/she knows that already.
@@jalsbrook4475 but comments" i like that he's singing himself" i don't think so lol
Looks an amazing atmosphere there. It shows people can be happy together.. wish I was there. 🙏🙏🙏
Always amazes no rapper copied this song.
Классная мелодия, танцевали на дискотеках.
Brilliant. Just brilliant.
Brilliant song and superb backing track. Murray live, too!!!!
He is genuinely happy that his audience is happy ❤
No matter how many times i listen to this song i come back to this same video
Das Lied von Murray head Bangkok bekomme ich Gänsehaut,fand das Lied schön und höre immer wieder
Ich auch :-)
O wow! This is so great! Sweet memories..
The wind from the Bingo Wings must have been terrible. Good performance as always.
Love it! But I almost had a heart attack and launched my phone across the room at 3:06.
YES! I thought I imagined it!!
The greatest song ever about chess
Love this song!!!!!!!! So fun!
You know someone hears this song for the first time and goes 'omg this song is so problematic, i need to make a 20 part youtube series complaining about it'. :D
Love amazing One Night And Bangkok love.
I was in the show 😁
Wäre mir peinlich
@@69luca_33 mir nicht 😁 was ist denn daran peinlich ??
Omg so cool!
Ño
Great performance sir.
I LOVE IT!! ❤️❤️
Loved the glee in his face as he performed this! And, best of luck to the spid! 3:06
wow, great live performance!
한국인에겐 전설적인 곡임
아 눈물이 나네 왜 저러 늙었어 😭😭😭
He's voice sounds same than in 1984.
Thank God he wasn't lip syncing it. I hate that. Love this.
Exactly.
the chorus is playback ofc
@@Supertschimbo The chorus has to be as that chorus can't be replicated.
This song is one best ever ❤
the first singer to sing live at the ZDF Fernsehgarten
Great song..great voice
God damn that bass line is sick
yeni şarkılar eskilerin tadını neden vermiyor.... eskileri defalarca dinleyebiliyorken yenilerden çabuk sıkılıyoruz...
I've only just discovered the song and it's my absolute favorite song and I have a nonstop earworm
This was not an easy song to learn. I had to recently play it at a recent show of mine as requested for my high school BFF 50th birthday.
Esse homem foi muito lindo essa música fez parte da minha vida
Jak dla mnie szacun.W tym wieku...
Qué gusto ver éste cantante con éste exitaso.
スタイルめっちゃいい！
渋さに磨きがかかってかっこいい😂
here he is and Germans have fun time wow
なおみです❤懐かしいですね😊
声がかわってない😊いいなぁ❤
Love seeing people having a great time.
My dream is only one nighit in Bangkok 👍😙.. my favorite song forever💕💕
_'I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine'_
HERMOSA CANCION DE ORO
I dont get these shows Murray does where it looks like hes at a garden party...
the name of the show literally has "garden" in it
Singing in Germany i know hes famous big time but damn you know you made it when Germany wants you to come play a show or 10
Just laying it down like Murray would
I miss those days without COVID-19.

live, very good. I hear this song when I was 18 years old in 1980.
legendary.
I've spent w-a-a-a-y more than one night in Bangkok! I love the city and the Thais ('cept their sh*tful government).
One of the world's GREAT cities. May it soon recover from both the junta and the virus. It's people deserve more.
I spent no nights in Bangkok. But I still like the song.
America may soon recover from the socialist Democrats.
❤ As Amazing as before!!! ❤
Perfect song that is above the waistline sunshine.
La voix intact thank you gutentac ❤❤❤
Superb song.
That damn spider tho!
I dont even watch the main video anymore, this is awesome just skip to the music lol
