You are absolutely right there. What a great sound. There was a Canadian band, out in the early 80's, that didn't get the recognition it deserved. The band was Breeding Ground. If you can find them on here, give them a listen. They were great.
I was a big fan. Had their first album, or their one and only album, for which this song is from on cassette back in high school. This was played on (college) radio quite a bit in SF Bay Area.
The opening riff, the breakdown at 1:50, the guitar solo, make sit one of the best alt-pop songs of all time, ranking there with Cure's Just Like Heaven
Cus they were a one hit wonder in alternative. They weren't mainstream. And that's fine. Good music like this should only be heard by people who appreciate it.
I got a phd in funny white boy music. And these guys are the most overlooked band ever. Should be mentioned in any conversation in relation to the genre
These guys still sell out venues in the indie circuit to this day. Their music seems to be remembered way more positively than many groups who were more mainstream than them at the time. I got to say, as someone who's relatively new to their catalog, I really dig this song.
Brian Kelly Holy shit, me too. Loved The Church. Haven't listened to Starfish in the longest time! I've been trying to purge my memory, lately, of as many bands (mostly obscure) as possible that I loved. Stuff like Railway Children, House of Love, Ride, Stone Roses, The Wonder Stuff, OMD, New Order, Crowded House, DM, The Hollow Men, Lightening Seeds, Big Audio Dynamite, Hoodoo Gurus, Echo and the Bunnymen, etc.
One of the best shows I ever saw had OMD opening up for New Order. I've seen almost every one of those bands live - some of the best sounds ever. Mode, House of Love, Crowded House - you've got some fine taste in music :D
Words that form a sentence Words that form a phrase In a poem or a letter Could not convey the meaning Of what this man has done In a painting On canvas As the colors fading They dictate my mood Can you see me Are you near me I find myself on canvas I find myself on stage Can you see me Are you near me And I long to know you're real And I long for you to be part of me I long to know you're real And I long for you to be a part of me In the fading twilight I sit and stare at her In all her beauty Her beauty You know I have to wonder Why all great men must die And leave their treasure They leave their treasure
@@Chrisamusic1 I googled and I'm listening now. I still don't get it. Is it the way the pretty notes go back and forth between up and down notes? I love electric guitar and this Ocean Blue song is one of my favorites from college when I saw them play at UC Davis 30 years ago.
I was lucky enough to land in a Music Theory class my senior year in high school. Honestly, before that I took music for granted but it truly is another language in and of itself. The Ocean Blue gets it!!!
The middle chord progression starting at 1:51 is just haunting and beautiful. For me, it makes the whole song and I always look forward to it when I hear this song.
What a beautiful song!! I grew up in the 80's and I never heard of these guys! Heard this by chance. Just goes to show......it's never too late to discover hidden gems!
I saw them in concert around 1990 "by accident" -- they were the opening act for the Psychedelic Furs. I instantly became a fan and bought all their CDs.
Yeah, I agree , it’s got a great flow to it,Pounding Bass, Haunting guitar,Great lyrics...drums..Keyboards.. well crafted song, well engineered.. everyone seems to be in the pocket!
I would stay up late on Sunday nights, alone in my room and listen to real music and see real videos. Like this one from The Ocean Blue, Thank you 120 minutes. You were a product of a better, vanished age.
Saw them at Mississippi Nights (St. Louis) in 1990! They opened for The Mighty Lemon Drops and killed! They played their entire debut album and then showered the crowd with Hershey candy bars. What a fantastic sound. So clean but full. Every instrument is perfectly balanced--Schelzel's voice, the chiming guitar, the steady bass, the piano slipping in and out, and I love the cymbal bell work. Damn, so great to slip into this song again.
Like Book of Love, this band was one of the best things to come out of Pennsylvania. Oddly, the PA band everyone seems to remember from the 80s is The Hooters who had the one hit "And We Danced". Tragic. Especially considering the numerous hits that Ocean Blue and Book of Love had all over the place on college radio. IF only the mainstream radio stations outside of PA had found these bands.... Regardless, we're all blessed now thanks to TH-cam. Shout out to 103.1 The Wave in Salt Lake City for continuing to play these kinds of bands every day. You guys at The Wave are awesome, especially Andrea and the guy behind Chet's Casettes!!
The drumming in this song is sooooo damned efficient, putting little accents where needed, like raisins in a bread. No need for complicated 7/6th shuffle movements combined with Creole traditional music drumming like Jeff Porcaro of Toto fame would have proposed. This song just needed a strong, simple beating, with lots of caresses of the cymbals on the right spots. And those delicate extra's by the keyboards, ohhh oh again so to the point. No unnecessary Wakeman-tralala, just art deco-ish, simple notes for the right atmosphere... Wow !
Saw this band at the Vegas venue called Calamity janes back in the late 89's. During the break sat and drank with the lead singer, very cool guy . Totally expected them to be a huge band. Best wishes for the journey they took.
There's a certain beauty ,elegance and power that encapsulates this song. It's been 30+ years since this came out. Still holds up against anything currently released. This song, could be released now...and it would be huge. The guitar work is superb, the drumming is precise and strong. Also, the production of this song, is simply superb. An under appreciated gem.
A classic of that pivotal late 80s/early 90s sound. I remember this hit the airwaves not long after the Bunnymen broke up and the guitar riff, particularly the solo was just what us indie college kids needed to help us think of what Will Sergeant would be playing if the Bunnymen were still around. That is said as a compliment to this band. I cannot recall ever hearing a weak song from them. I read years ago that the lead singer became a lawyer after they disbanded. And this is EXACTLY how indie college kids looked around that time.
Met singer when he was backstage at the church gig along time back in the 80’s said to him I know u ocean blue he looked surprised & smiled at me !!!! Thanks ❤️👍😻☮️🙀😹🇺🇸
How dis this NOT blow up and get GIGANTIC?? The Ocean Blue shined so brightly for a very short 2 album life span. Many great tracks, but this just outshines everything...the guitar, guitar, guitar. Dammit, bring back the 90s NOW!
This was played a decent bit on MTV around '88/'89 and I loved it, but it was mining the earlier territory of the Smiths/EchoBunnymen, etc., and grunge was about to be heavily pushed by the music industry as you probably know. We can look back on this now and appreciate its awesome timelessness.
3 albums, Beneath the Rhythm and Sound was also on Sire before they got dropped. Then they signed to Mercury and released "See The Ocean Blue" which was a more rough and tumble sound, but still poppy (the song Slide was very much their old sound still). They continued to release good stuff, Davy Jones' Locker, Waterworks, Ultramarine, and the newest one is Kings and Queens / Knaves and Thieves. Still good stuff.
It's the synth and his vocals. Their sound has a light airiness to it. Everything has room to breathe. I always thought this song was waiting for a John Hughes film.
God, what memories. Was listening to new music and heard this the very day I heard Toad The Wet Sprocket. That whole era was so distinct. The Sundays, Echo and The Bunnymen, The Church, The Cure. There was a mystery and a magic to the vibe that has not been duplicated. It was around this time that I discovered Acid House and Trance and I never looked back. But this was one of those last conventional bands I recall loving.
What a great band. I remember buying Cerulean at my local Strawberries and listening to it over and over… a little Echo and the Bunnymen, a little Housemartins, but also completely original.
In other songs, you may find guitar passages that are louder, softer, faster, slower, grittier, smoother, nicer, or nastier, but you may not find one that is sweeter in tone than this one, or more in keeping with the vibe of the song. This is near perfection.
Thank you 120 minutes on MTV back in the late 80's The only way I would ever hear of this band. Now I have all of their music. One of the best underrated bands of all time.
Recuerdos bailando en Bauhaus de Miraflores en 2003,2004, especialmente los miércoles. Aunque al día siguiente había que trabajar y estudiar,igual lo importante era bailar la música que realmente te gusta. El tiempo vuela...
My brother and I had a cd of self-titled and cerulean that we listened to every night and to this day are still two of the most nostalgic things to me.
Heard this on Sirius First Wave the other day and was blown away - and amazed I never heard of them - I'm am an 80's music freak :) it sounds to me more early 80's new wave and was again surprised this was released in the late 80's - awesome tune with great melodies - it almost sounds like a mix between the psychedelic furs and Ultravox - downloaded the whole album today - it's really good! But this track is really a stand out.
1989, I used to hear this on The Edge radio station on my way to work in my spider web patterned stockings, short skirt, paisley shirt, and bright red hair--ah, the memories!
One of the best songs and music video ever invented!! I don’t understand why The Ocean blue is so underrated they were actually pioneers of a new music style in the 90’s in fact they inaugurated the 90’s decade of music by introducing 90’s new wave rock style!
It's as if Echo and The Bunnymen and Tears for Fears had a baby. Cannot understand how this band has not been on my radar until today.
That’s the gift of music sometimes. Been a fan since the 90s! One of my favorites!
So guess who's 1:12 into the song, likes it alot it's from my time and yet has have no clue who they are.
This guy
Apparently you've been living under a rock LMAO!!! They're awesome, glad you found them!!!
The Ocean Blue, The Sundays, The Sugar Cubes, The Smithereens, The Church and many more, what great memories, this coming from a metalhead \m/
Same here \m/
Absolutely!! They are all still amazing and all in my phone playlist!!!
Do you know some other great bands? I’m looking for songs.. I’m getting tired of the songs I already have !
The cult. The cars
Charlatans UK are great. Album, Some Friendly
What a strong Echo & The Bunnymen influence.
One of the most under-rated 80s band!
Severely underrated.
What are you on about... this song was HUGE in L.A. at the time.
The most British-sounding American band that there ever was!! These lads are AMAZING!!
You mean they're not British?
@@vannjunkin8041 They are from Pennsylvania!
@@misterspookymanHershey IIRC.
Paul Weller is most certainly British.
Whoops, wrong video.
Thirty. Years. This song just never gets old. What a classic.
❤✊
30 years!!!! NO!!!!! Where did the time go?
A song from their 1989 album.
Are you serious?! Just knew them. Lovely.
I’m only 19 but my dad grew up in the 80s and 90s and has passed the great real music on to me!!!
1989 when I was a college freshman this girl used to blast this song in her dorm room. Rest In Peace Katrina Helwig
This song takes me back to high school and KROQ the Richard Blade Show. Long live the great oldies!
The greatest band you've never heard of.
between them and 'OURS' unless you live in NYC or NJ. Then you've probably heard of OURS and Jimmy Gnecco. if you haven't, i guarantee you wont' be disappointed!
I couldn't agree more!
Hope Tried It so true, but we know.
So simple, can u see me.
You are absolutely right there. What a great sound. There was a Canadian band, out in the early 80's, that didn't get the recognition it deserved. The band was Breeding Ground. If you can find them on here, give them a listen. They were great.

Its got an "Echo and the Bunnymen" vibe to it. Good stuff
Most amazing to me is that they're from Hershey, PA and not England!
May of 2023 anyone? This is STILL EPIC!!
been stuck on the song cerulean for a hard couple weeks now for some reason.
This song transcends time...still brings back memories of a day at high school when I discovered New Wave..Tom
the haircut
Stop using the word epic!! It has been over killed
You bet listen to this song almost every day love it
The opening riff, the breakdown at 1:50, the guitar solo, make sit one of the best alt-pop songs of all time, ranking there with Cure's Just Like Heaven
The bridge there is perfection...the guitar solo and ride on the drums is...chills.
This band is an American treasure.
Not really. They're below average and ok to hear when walking thru a grocery store
@Poom You never heard their music, do you?
Cus they were a one hit wonder in alternative. They weren't mainstream. And that's fine. Good music like this should only be heard by people who appreciate it.
Another great band Riverside（USA）
@@poom641says the guy who likes Journey.

"timeless" - that's their hook.
Crazy how an overwhelming feeling of nostalgia comes over me when that guitar kicks in.
The guitar in this and Reptile by the Church were the best sounds I had growing up. I just feel young listening to them...
aye, heard it on the radio today, totally forgot about it. had to look it up, couldn't quite remember the name.
Brian Kelly Holy shit, me too. Loved The Church. Haven't listened to Starfish in the longest time! I've been trying to purge my memory, lately, of as many bands (mostly obscure) as possible that I loved. Stuff like Railway Children, House of Love, Ride, Stone Roses, The Wonder Stuff, OMD, New Order, Crowded House, DM, The Hollow Men, Lightening Seeds, Big Audio Dynamite, Hoodoo Gurus, Echo and the Bunnymen, etc.

chinafakeeggs - I think I've listed to that song like 1000 times over my lifetime. The whole album is great.
Words that form a sentence
Words that form a phrase
In a poem or a letter
Could not convey the meaning
Of what this man has done
In a painting
On canvas
As the colors fading
They dictate my mood
Can you see me
Are you near me
I find myself on canvas
I find myself on stage
Can you see me
Are you near me
And I long to know you're real
And I long for you to be part of me
I long to know you're real
And I long for you to be a part of me
In the fading twilight
I sit and stare at her
In all her beauty
Her beauty
You know I have to wonder
Why all great men must die
And leave their treasure
They leave their treasure
grasias👍
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
the song is a allegory fo Christ.
The kind of music that makes your spirit soar
This LP turned 35 just yesterday! I have loved your music for decades!💙💙🌊🌊
Amazing huh…this could drop today and soar. Btw….the band has new material after reunion.
The second guitar riff, one of the greatest examples of the power of chromatic structure in music theory...brilliant and a sheer delight!
Please tell me more about the chromatic structure in this song. I can’t wait to hear your explanation.
Go listen to 'Reptile' by The Church. ;-)
@@Chrisamusic1 I googled and I'm listening now. I still don't get it. Is it the way the pretty notes go back and forth between up and down notes? I love electric guitar and this Ocean Blue song is one of my favorites from college when I saw them play at UC Davis 30 years ago.
I could live a lifetime in that moment
I was lucky enough to land in a Music Theory class my senior year in high school. Honestly, before that I took music for granted but it truly is another language in and of itself.
The Ocean Blue gets it!!!
No song title could better describe my current situation in life.
American band with an english heart. Love it.
This isn't too far away from the mysterious kiwi pop of the Chills either.
Ever gorgeous.
This type of music is typically off my radar but I really dig this ....
Underrated percussion in this song esp the instrumental part. The use of cymbals is amazing.
It's just the bell on the ride cymbal.
@@jalphabet5 yes but it is a nice choice is the point.
I just can’t articulate how absolutely impactful this song has been to me. 10 out of 10.
The good old days of the early 90s. 😎👍👍
This song has one of my most fave drum licks ever.
The middle chord progression starting at 1:51 is just haunting and beautiful. For me, it makes the whole song and I always look forward to it when I hear this song.
Yes!!
Bingo. Great ear.
I haven't heard this song in forever but I always remember that part
Agreed. They start cooking…
What's?? Español please
The drums are flawless! That drummer is tearing it up in this tune, wow!
Very Echo & Bunnymen sounding
Well it was 89 so I'm sure Echo was a strong influence. Both great bands! ✌️
That’s a good thing,man.Echo and The Bunnymen was a fantastic band,Ian McCulloch has some great solo stuff too.
Exactly
For Like 32 years I thought this was Echo, only learning who it really was by watching this video lol
I thought they sounded like Flock of Seagulls 😊😅
I adore this indie pop group, it's fabulous, the lyrics of their songs and music fascinate me.
Exelente tema de mii epoca , que estilo ran perfecto lo maeavilloso bello, larga vida al rockkkkk
I loved this cd in high school, played it all the time.
All the tracks on their debut album are superb! Love Ocean Blue! Most under-rated band ever.
Cerulean is even better, I've never been as sold on the debut honestly.
the drummer is severely underappreciated i feel
interesting groove and tom works all around! it's not boring !
ikr!!
What a beautiful song!! I grew up in the 80's and I never heard of these guys! Heard this by chance. Just goes to show......it's never too late to discover hidden gems!
Yes,this is a rare gem.I heard this by chance because the radio station in San Francisco had an Indie hour.
I saw them in concert around 1990 "by accident" -- they were the opening act for the Psychedelic Furs. I instantly became a fan and bought all their CDs.
Amazing to fall upon it, right?
My beauty?😚.... perfection
For me remember The Railways Children, One band of '80 years!
The Ocean Blue is the greatest indie rock band Pennsylvania ever produced.
The Ocean Blue and The Mighty Lemon Drops....VA Beach......AWESOME
I've grown into them. When they came out wasn't into it. Now that I'm 63, I love it. I'm a fan now.
The Ocean Blue is one of my all-time favorite bands!!
Mine too !!!!
2:17 to 3.07 there are fifty seconds of guitar magic. So remind me of Echo And The Bunnymen too. 🎸
Yeah, I agree , it’s got a great flow to it,Pounding Bass, Haunting guitar,Great lyrics...drums..Keyboards.. well crafted song, well engineered.. everyone seems to be in the pocket!
SUCH a sorely under-rated group. Cerulean album got me through so many difficult nights.
Thank you, 1st Wave, for bringing this song and band back into my life!
The 80’s and 90’s will always be a part of my existence. Two great music eras.
I like this drummer!😎
Agreed!!
I would stay up late on Sunday nights, alone in my room and listen to real music and see real videos. Like this one from The Ocean Blue, Thank you 120 minutes. You were a product of a better, vanished age.
Indubitably! I agree.
💯 agree

What a fantastic sound. So clean but full. Every instrument is perfectly balanced--Schelzel's voice, the chiming guitar, the steady bass, the piano slipping in and out, and I love the cymbal bell work. Damn, so great to slip into this song again.
Wished I was there, I know the place
I saw them on that tour in Orlando at a club called Visage...
I was at that show too, it was excellent!
Oh my gosh,I remember The Mighty Lemon Drops,I forgot about them.
@@richardwynn6744I think there was also an eighties band called Visage
I always listen to this band in the fall and winter. It just seems perfect for it.
I do too!
I can agree with that!
Although I've listened to this in a convertible on a warm summer day; nothing wrong with that.
S J I'm different, this song makes me think of swimming in the ocean.
yes
If I had My own Coffee Shop in Chicago, I'd play all these songs and just reminisce.
Ocean Blue, equipo extraordinario!!

Forget The Hooters. How about Tommy Conwell and the Young Rumblers. They were great !!!

quite simply the best! ; )

Great Music.. 2024 and still listening for 3 decades. Thanks guys!!
Great band and wonderful examples of bowl cuts.
Dylan Roof was nicer back then. Such a shame :(

What a dazzling group of young guys.....tumelss music.
i thank the Switzerland radio Couleur 3: thanks to this radio i was able to buy the lp. A grat record. In 1989.
That break at 1:50 is gorgeous. Great, great song.
Absolutely love this song...was waiting for my subway..and it just popped in my mind!!
Love it!!
God, what memories. Was listening to new music and heard this the very day I heard Toad The Wet Sprocket. That whole era was so distinct. The Sundays, Echo and The Bunnymen, The Church, The Cure. There was a mystery and a magic to the vibe that has not been duplicated. It was around this time that I discovered Acid House and Trance and I never looked back.

Late 80's gem... It's hard to believe these guys are from the US and not from the UK...
They seem like they would be British they kinda remind me of new order who are British
That's what I thought, they sound a bit like a Madchester band...
