The 80s were a golden decade for pop/rock and other genres as well. I was a record store manager from around 1982 to 1987 so I played a lot of music like this in my store. Always fun to see you two react to music I “grew up” to in the 60s, 70s & 80s. Love your channel on TH-cam!
At that time, I would wander into my local Peaches Record Store (Orlando) and more than half the time I would buy what was playing in the store. Great way to discover new stuff which is now classic
I'm going to have to agree with you there. I just love that song, even though it's not one of their better-known hits. Another forgotten song of theirs, "Hypnotize Me" from the movie Innerspace, is fabulous. Those are probably my fave two Wang Chung songs of all.
Since we’re talking Peter Gabriel, his song “In Your Eyes” from the Secret World Live Tour is definitely worth you guys reacting to! 👍 Great live performance.
Some have called this the greatest love song. Peter Gabriel said it's about not only the love for a woman, but about a relationship of a man with his God.
I remember this back in the day they was playing on something I can't remember the show but that was on a show Justin Bateman was on there oh my they come out and did this song
I can't believe you haven't done THE cool artist of the 80's, Adam Ant! Start with "Goody Two Shoes." Jay, you're gonna love the groove. Amber, you're gonna love the quirk!
Adam Ant is the bomb! I feel like they maybe did "Goody Two Shoes" already? I'd have to check. If not, they HAVE to do it. And then follow it with "Strip" and "Wonderful."
So many great songs from him like Stand and Deliver, Prince Charming, Desperate but Not Serious, Dog Eat Dog, Ant Music, Kings of the Wild Frontier, and the aforementioned Goody Two Shoes
@@nancysmith8626 - I did a search and didn't see it come up. Definitely Strip afterwards, and then I'd go a little forward into his career and do Room at the Top, a very under-rated gem.
Wang Chung took its name from the Chinese term for the first note of the Chinese musical scale, though the bassist said that “it means whatever you want it to mean.” When the band interjected the phrase into the lyrics of its 1987 hit “Everybody Have Fun Tonight,” the lingo became Generation-X shorthand for a wild night out.
It means "perfect pitch " in mandarin Chinese.They released an album in the UK under the name of Huang Chung.Changed the spelling when they signed to Geffen records in the US
@John Casey Yes! Which is the name of the first note in the Chinese classical music scale. Most of the stuff the band said about it IMHO was just them messing with people, probably tired of answering it straight.
You guys barely scratched the surface when it comes to Legit 80s music hits and videos. I lived this decade glued to VH1/MTV/BET and I’ve been paying attention to your channel for some time. Love your videos. Keep it up guys 👏.
Amber reminds me of my grandma. Every time Jay says something negative about something, she says 3 things about how good it is. That's enough positive to overcome any of his few negatives!
Welcome to the fam. They have a substantial library of reactions to check out. Also I suggest their movie reaction channel also. They 3 channels. All are a pleasure to follow. Again, welcome.
I loved Wang Chung back in the day. I got to see them in concert once, it was maybe '84 or '85. To this day, they make me just want to dance. There was no specific dance that I was ever aware of. Mostly just a lot of jumping, and arms in the air, lol...
This song was a hit for my kids and their friends. I have great memories of them all being around 10 and running through my house singing this song for months and months. Great memories. Knew it would appeal to you both. Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada ❤️ ❤️ 🇨🇦🇨🇦
I grew up in the 80's and I really can't explain how we danced the songs!! haha We danced very separated from each other. Everybody remembers Wang Chung 🙂 I think the 80's were the best music decade, but the 70's were the best dancing era. Regards from Chile!!
I was JUST thinking of this song the other night! Yes, we grew up and listened to music like this all the time! It was great being a teenager and college guy in the 80’s.
Ah Junior High school memories 😊 Our choir sang and performed a dance to this song and it was SO much fun! We had a giant freshman football player with a deep voice named Ron who did the “everybody have fun” part lol. RIP Ron ❤ Great reaction guys.
❤ this song! Took me right back to the 80s. Watched Wang Chung in early 2020 along with Go West, Flock of Seagulls and Cutting Crew. What a night it was! When they sang Everybody have fun tonight the crowd went wild..... Good times 💕
You should absolutely check out WHAT YOU NEED from INXS, which used a lot of these effects you see in this Wang Chung video. IN FACT, I am going to be bold and say that WHAT YOU NEED is the BEST made VIDEO of the 80's. Please check it out if you haven't already. Keep smiling 🤘 🙂
INXS was phenomenal in the 80s and I still enjoy their videos... but nobody could top Peter Gabriel's videos from the 80s to early 90s. He was the man!
Saw them live at Totally Tubular Festival It was Amazing!! We got front row w my Daughter who is 7 they were high fiving her and singing to her it's a memory to never forget! Great band Great People!!
That’s the extended version of this song, the middle breaks and it’s the drumbeat, electric guitar and vocals, “Will you tell me what a Wang Chung is??!!” Luv that interlude to this 80’s hit!
Jay and Amber, great reaction!!! So 80s!!! What about reacting to Billy Idol's video of Dancing With Myself? You two will be dancing and you'll love the theatrics!!! 💖
The soundtrack to "To Live and Die in LA" featuring Wang Chung has always been a favorite. The title track was a minor hit but the rest of it is just amazing. It would make a great workout album. You should watch the movie. The mid 80s movies about LA were really gritty. Even the comedies like "Beverly Hills Cop" we're about a gritty LA. Even a lot of the music was gritty.
Yes, that soundtrack album is a criminally underrated effort. I still have it in my iPhone. It’s my go-to for airplane travel when I need some rest, but it’s too uncomfortable to actually sleep. I can easily get lost in that soundscape and zone out for 45 minutes. My favorite song on “To Live and Die in L.A.” is “Wait,” which was also on their album “Points on a Curve.”
One of the most fun songs to come out of the '80s -- right at the height of MTV's popularity, back when MTV was a network of all music videos, all the time. Honestly, I don't know which one I like more -- the song, or the music video. Both are Wang Chung-a-licious.
Oh, yeah!! Wang Chung tonight!! 💖 You are correct about the dancing, Amber. Up until the '70's dancing was an integral part of life. When the music got psychedelic, the dancing changed. It amped back up in the '80's where everyone was dancing again.
Uh, no. Mid '70s, with Disco, was when everyone got up & danced again.....including older folks. 1980 was the Disco backlash. Dance music came back in '83 with Michael Jackson, Madonna, & British/Synth Pop. First half of '70s was when serious music was the thing, reflecting the chaotic times. Dancing took a backseat.
@@donnabruhn6907 I was all at the discos so have not forgotten it. I would have been more accurate to say mid to late '60's. The hippies danced in the fields, not in the clubs. Disco brought that all back.
@@mowerdan8133 Point taken, and yes, I was there. I was having babies in the early '70s and as you pointed out the times affected music, and dancing, so in my head there was no dancing again until disco which began in the latter half of the '70's. So, when you get as old as I am the decades aren't so incrementally defined. Thank you for making my point for me. 🙂
@@ColoradoGrami I agree, music trends & cultural shifts tended to follow more of a straddling of decades. That "Happy Days" Rock & Roll era was actually late '50s/early '60s. The hippie/social relevance scene was late '60s/early '70s and so on.
I like Wang Chung and this was definitely a huge hit for them. Their earlier music was a lot better (Dance Hall Days, Don’t Let Go), and their album for the soundtrack To Live And Die In L.A received major praise. Hypnotize Me, Wait, and Space Junk are other songs worth listen to 😊
"I was listening to a rock 'n' roll station on my way over here, you know to put me in the mood. There was a passage in one of those trifle songs, that I feel, well, is the keynote of this evening: Everybody have fun tonight - Everybody Wang Chung tonight.".....Frasier Crane as he walks into Cheers for his bachelor party
When you all gonna react to Jamiroquai "Virtual Insanity"? Great band and song. Every other reactor channel has hit this one up and the video is probably in the top ten videos of all time. Seriously, great underrated band.
The 80s had a lot of good dance music. I spent enough time in dance clubs in the early 80s on friday and sarurday nights. Wang Chung appeared after we met and we bought their slbums. They wre a great band. I think they ate still around. You should try the song Dance Hall Days. It has a really smooth groove to it. Check it out!
"BOOM BOOM (Out Go The Lights)" (Pat Travers, 1983) “Disco Duck” (Rick Dees and His Cast of Idiots, 1976) “Playground in My Mind” (Clint Holmes, 1973) “Seasons in the Sun” (Terry Jacks, 1974) “The Streak” (Ray Stevens, 1974) “Muskrat Love” (The Captain & Tennille, 1976) “Convoy” (C. W. McCall, 1975) "Baby, Don’t Get Hooked On Me" (Mac Davis, 1972) "Uncle Albert" (Paul McCartney, 1971) "Tie A Yellow Ribbon" (Tony Orlando & Dawn, 1973) "Spiders And Snakes" (Jim Stafford, 1974)
Thank you for reviewing this song! You guys are great! Fun fact (that I didn't learn for several years after first hearing this song), towards the end of the song you can hear one of the singers belting out, "Can you tell me what a Wang Chung is"? Cheers!
I really you two appreciating the music i grew up listening to in the 80s. And the way you guys are moving to the music. IT'S GREAT GOD BLESS YOU GUYS. REAL MUSIC LISTENERS
They played my Grad Nite at Disney World in 1987. You know I used to love doing just what you two do. I used to love to explore older music. If the internet was around then I would have been doing this to 50's, 60's and 70's music. I so look forward to your posts everyday.
This is one of those songs I still remember the first time I heard it when I was in my twenties inthe80s and it was like what the hell is this this is incredible
“Dance Hall Days” is their other big hit. It’s a little more mellow but still has a cool grove and is a lot of fun!
NOT the original video but the "Dance Hall " one. That was awesome.
I think I like "Dance Hall Days" better!
Don't forget Let's Go!
As a matter of fact, Dance Hall Days was released well before this one
Yes, great groove though.👍
The 80s were a golden decade for pop/rock and other genres as well. I was a record store manager from around 1982 to 1987 so I played a lot of music like this in my store. Always fun to see you two react to music I “grew up” to in the 60s, 70s & 80s.
Love your channel on TH-cam!
In the UK i used to go to stores like you mention, listening to and picking up 7inch singles and more.
At that time, I would wander into my local Peaches Record Store (Orlando) and more than half the time I would buy what was playing in the store. Great way to discover new stuff which is now classic
“To Live and Die in LA” is their best song. They wrote the soundtrack for a great 80’s movie of the same name
Dance Hall Days is their best song.
I'm going to have to agree with you there. I just love that song, even though it's not one of their better-known hits. Another forgotten song of theirs, "Hypnotize Me" from the movie Innerspace, is fabulous. Those are probably my fave two Wang Chung songs of all.
@@CryptikConstruct in YOUR humble opinion.
@@CryptikConstruct Exactly , by far!
Another "amen" for "To Live and Die in LA" -- that song is so haunting -- i love the piano riff at the beginning!
Since we’re talking Peter Gabriel, his song “In Your Eyes” from the Secret World Live Tour is definitely worth you guys reacting to! 👍 Great live performance.
That performance was stellar, as was the live performance of "Secret World" from that same tour. It's my second-favorite song of all time.
Some have called this the greatest love song. Peter Gabriel said it's about not only the love for a woman, but about a relationship of a man with his God.
I remember this back in the day they was playing on something I can't remember the show but that was on a show Justin Bateman was on there oh my they come out and did this song
Peter Gabriel, “In Your Eyes” from the Secret World Live Tour is one of the best performances ever. Guaranteed to be one of your favorites.
I LOVE THIS SONG! PLEASE DO IT!
I can't believe you haven't done THE cool artist of the 80's, Adam Ant! Start with "Goody Two Shoes." Jay, you're gonna love the groove. Amber, you're gonna love the quirk!
Yes!!!! Adam Ant!!!!
I've been requesting that off and on for a bit now 😀. Thanks for requesting it!
Adam Ant is the bomb! I feel like they maybe did "Goody Two Shoes" already? I'd have to check. If not, they HAVE to do it. And then follow it with "Strip" and "Wonderful."
So many great songs from him like Stand and Deliver, Prince Charming, Desperate but Not Serious, Dog Eat Dog, Ant Music, Kings of the Wild Frontier, and the aforementioned Goody Two Shoes
@@nancysmith8626 - I did a search and didn't see it come up. Definitely Strip afterwards, and then I'd go a little forward into his career and do Room at the Top, a very under-rated gem.
After seeing your video, I have made a decision: I shall Wang Chung Tonight!
Saw them live with Billy Idol...WHAT A SHOW!!!😎
DANCE HALL DAYS!!
Wow! Lucky you....envious.
I saw them with the Cars on the Heartbeat City tour. It was a great show!
That was an AMAZING tour and that was a great combo of talent. Loved it!
"Let's Go" and "Dance Hall Days" are there next two biggest hits.
I can't sit still when I hear "Let's Go"!!
Oooo, forgot about "Let's Go" - another lesser known song that I like better than their biggest hits.
“Let’s Go” is such an awesome song! It’s hands down my favorite of theirs.
Love Let's Go!!!
@@leticiaworboys9927 OMG !!!! I have to go watch it again!!! I can't stand still when "Let's Go" is playing!!!
Wang Chung took its name from the Chinese term for the first note of the Chinese musical scale, though the bassist said that “it means whatever you want it to mean.” When the band interjected the phrase into the lyrics of its 1987 hit “Everybody Have Fun Tonight,” the lingo became Generation-X shorthand for a wild night out.
I saw an interview when they said their name came from the noise a guitar makes when you strum an electric guitar, WANG, CHUNG....
@@ffjsb I saw that same interview. (Or maybe they said this in multiple interviews.)
This came out in 1986
It means "perfect pitch " in mandarin Chinese.They released an album in the UK under the name of Huang Chung.Changed the spelling when they signed to Geffen records in the US
@John Casey
Yes!
Which is the name of the first note in the Chinese classical music scale.
Most of the stuff the band said about it IMHO was just them messing with people, probably tired of answering it straight.
🎶Everybody Rob Squad tonight 🎶 🤟😃
80's best music and videos.
This is wild,just this morning I was at the grocery store and this was playing and I thought Jordan and Amber should hear this one
That thought goes through my head so often since I started watching them.
You guys barely scratched the surface when it comes to Legit 80s music hits and videos. I lived this decade glued to VH1/MTV/BET and I’ve been paying attention to your channel for some time. Love your videos. Keep it up guys 👏.
Ive been suggesting oingo boingo for awhile but they just wont do it. One of the core 80s bands and they wont touch em for some reason.
I think they would love Dead man’s party!!!
The big 80s! Such a great time to be a teenager! So glad I was! Love this song too! ❤️💯
Yep - had a lot of fun back then!
I was in my 20s. I'm surprised I have any coherent memories from that decade.
Like many others on here "Dance Hall Days" is a must. ALSO: Elvis Costello - "Pump It Up"
I have to say this...you are the cutest couple! And so positive. It's hard to find positive people these days. Please keep the reactions coming!
If you think "positive," you missed his complaints about Rhinestone Cowboy, Holy Grail & others lately. Amber is always positive & unto it, yes.
How can you not be positive listening to a song like this?
Amber reminds me of my grandma. Every time Jay says something negative about something, she says 3 things about how good it is. That's enough positive to overcome any of his few negatives!
Just wanted to say, I just discovered you guys and this channel, AND IM ADDICTED!!! Love it
Welcome to the RSR family 🙋🏻♀️ they are so genuine
Welcome to the fam. They have a substantial library of reactions to check out.
Also I suggest their movie reaction channel also.
They 3 channels. All are a pleasure to follow.
Again, welcome.
They're great but a reaction that you should definitely check out is to the B-52's "Rock Lobster". I laughed so hard I cried!
Jay and Amber are the real deal. Good people, beautiful family!
Welcome to the party Pal!!!
🎶 Everybody have fun tonight! Everybody Wang Chung tonight! 🎶
This and Dance Hall Days were all over MTV in the 80's.
I love Wang Chung. They had quite a few hits. I hope you get a chance for “ Hypnotize Me “. 💕. Also a great band was Johnny Hates Jazz.
Loved Johnny Hates Jazz's song "Shattered Dreams".
Yessssss! Please do "Shattered Dreams" by Johnny Hates Jazz!
I was going to mention this song until I saw your comment. Good one!
@@rray848 same here
"Let's Go" & "To Live and Die in LA" are 2 other by Wang Chung you should react to.
"Everybody have seizures tonight." - unknown
Ikr?
I like the way Jay stops moving during the bridge, clearly impressed with the octave in the vocals.
I loved Wang Chung back in the day. I got to see them in concert once, it was maybe '84 or '85. To this day, they make me just want to dance. There was no specific dance that I was ever aware of. Mostly just a lot of jumping, and arms in the air, lol...
Yeah, the only thing I think we would have done is aim up then down with our bodies in at the chorus. Up up up up down down down down 😁
Great reaction. Guy guy guys , SEPTEMBER by Earth Wind & Fire. The video is such a good time. And I dare you to try and sit still....
Fire In the Twilight, Dance Hall Days, and To Live and Die in LA.
The 80's ...unique,weird and wonderful 🤯🤯🤯🤯
The lead singer always reminded me of Sting, in looks, attitude, and voice. Many have mentioned it, but you guys would love "To Live and Die in LA."
Let's just take a minute to appreciate the INSANE amount of work that went into the editing of the music video.
True
I grew up with this, and after watching your reaction, I do believe I will have to Wang Chung tonight.
Love this song. It’s infectious dance groove joy.
This song was a hit for my kids and their friends. I have great memories of them all being around 10 and running through my house singing this song for months and months. Great memories. Knew it would appeal to you both. Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada ❤️ ❤️ 🇨🇦🇨🇦
J & Amber, you'll love their "Dance Hall Days"!!! (their other hit)
I grew up in the 80's and I really can't explain how we danced the songs!! haha We danced very separated from each other. Everybody remembers Wang Chung 🙂
I think the 80's were the best music decade, but the 70's were the best dancing era.
Regards from Chile!!
Wang Chung, rock lobster, whip it, all songs that started the party back in the day
I was JUST thinking of this song the other night! Yes, we grew up and listened to music like this all the time! It was great being a teenager and college guy in the 80’s.
To Live and Die in L.A. ROCKS!!!!!!!
When this song came out i loved it i still love it !!!!!!! 54 years old in August :) And dance hall days :)
Peak 80's. Pop perfection. You REALLY need to do Murray Head's 'One Night in Bangkok' already!!
This is a must!
Oh yes!
OH YES, I AGREE!!! 👍😃❣️😃👍
OMG!! "One Night in Bangkok"!! A song about a chess tournament!!
@@elizabethcohen4627 Still a banger.
Ah Junior High school memories 😊 Our choir sang and performed a dance to this song and it was SO much fun! We had a giant freshman football player with a deep voice named Ron who did the “everybody have fun” part lol. RIP Ron ❤ Great reaction guys.
I hear this at every wedding reception I go too but it never gets old LOL
everyone from the 80's will relate an event, or a relationship to all of these 80's songs. This one for me has special memories
Dance Hall Days, Let’s Go, Hypnotize Me and
To live and die in LA all good Wang Chung songs!
Haven’t heard this song in decades but wow… took me straight back there. Thanks so much guys.
Guys, if you love the 80's, you have to try Level 42, "Something About You." Great song and video.
Wang Chun - Dancehall Days...>AWESOME!!! Even Today, good chill song especially when driving open topped in the summer!
❤ this song!
Took me right back to the 80s.
Watched Wang Chung in early 2020 along with Go West, Flock of Seagulls and Cutting Crew.
What a night it was! When they sang Everybody have fun tonight the crowd went wild.....
Good times 💕
When this was first played on MTV they had a disclaimer saying this video could cause some people to have seizures this was for real not a joke
Fun fact: They came up with the name of the band from the sound of a Guitar 🎸 when you strum it up and down- "Wang Chung."
Agreed, I heard that too.
Yeah... I saw on an interview on the Tonight show back in the 80's.
“To Live and Die in LA” is my favorite.

Jay, most of us did go "wild" for this! LOVED this song back in the day! Great song choice and great reaction! Thank you! 💙
I remember when this came out they interviewed the members and asked what "Wang Chung" meant. The answer was that it's the sound a guitar makes.
Steve Winwood "While You See A Chance". From the early 80s. Opening keyboard intro is great.
Thank you for reviewing this song! You guys are great! Fun fact (that I didn't learn for several years after first hearing this song), towards the end of the song you can hear one of the singers belting out, "Can you tell me what a Wang Chung is"? Cheers!

Played in New Wave Clubs, so you would dance to this in that Style of Dance👍
Fire in the Twilight - Wang Chung
They played my Grad Nite at Disney World in 1987. You know I used to love doing just what you two do. I used to love to explore older music. If the internet was around then I would have been doing this to 50's, 60's and 70's music. I so look forward to your posts everyday.
This song was one the true bangers that would get everyone at the skating rink out on the floor when I was kid.
I've been waiting for Wang Chung!
Loved these guys! I just saw them in Austin a few months ago and they still got it!
Huey Lewis And The News - Heart And Soul, 80's goodie
This was a great song and I loved it when the video would play on MTV.
At the start I was thinking I vaguely remember this song. Then the chorus started now I definitely remember this song. 😄
This is one of those songs I still remember the first time I heard it when I was in my twenties inthe80s and it was like what the hell is this this is incredible
Always like this song!
This is such a wacky, fun song and I've always loved it. Loved dancing to it back in the day!
Love their Big Hits!! :) Take Care!
Banger!!!!! Sooo fun!! Love Dance Hall Days too
