They did tour in the early 2000s, though. In the 80s they didn’t tour because Green had developed serious stage fright. Still, Green Gartside is blessed with one of the most distinctive singing voices ever. Scritti Politti rules!
Cupid & Psyche 85 by Scritti Politti changed my world musically. Hypnotize was (and still is) a musical marvel. There was nothing at the time that sounded like this song or the album as a whole. Painfully overlooked LP. Pure sonic genius.
I can't take my eyes off what is going on in this video and literally nothing's happening So appealing and fantastic without being vulgar, really ethereal backdrop for an even lovelier song
So many people slam this video...'not much going on'. The music is so busy that this minimalistic video provides the perfect juxtaposition. This is my favorite track from this album and I love this video
Flicking through the posters in Woolworths listening to Scritti Politti on a Walkman, not that I had the money to buy a poster, just I liked looking through them and the sound of one frame hitting the next.
Incredible chord progressions and arrangements, complex and creative beats, unsurpassed sound programming combining a wide range of sounds that complement each other all over the spectrum (bright vs dark, soft vs sharp/stabby etc) . It's like getting a brain massage ;D ;D.
Talk about nostalgia! I watch this video and I swear I can remember the woody smell of the room where I sat watching this video. An absolute underrated 80's masterpiece!
In the 80's, on a trip home from college, I walked into my mom's living room and heard this fascinating sounding song coming from the tv in kitchen. I thought to myself, "this song is incredible"! I bolted into the kitchen to find the 'Hypnotized' video playing on the screen. The combination of hearing this gorgeously, intriguing song and Green's beautiful face had me hooked! Scritti Politti for life!!✨🎶✨
Ditto... 1985 was during college for me too & I LOOOVVED this album - C&P85 is a masterpiece & the finest example of the quintessential 80s sound. .... & yes ...Green is one of the most gorgeous men on the planet - especially during this stage !
Green is a musical genius. At that point, he was one of the most gorgeous men on the planet. Beauty fades, but talent & intelligence do not - as Green continues to prove.
First song I ever heard was Oh Patti on the radio as a teen back in '88.Been hooked on SP ever since.This is the album prior and this song & every other one on the album is mind-blowing.
OH MY GOD!!! I was TEN years old when I first this & immediately started head-noddin' & bobbin' to the funky beat when I heard a friend playing this like "who is THAT?". My mom bought me the album. It sounded so futuristic then & still bangs today. I've got to download this song and add an EQ & volume to it. Thank You Scrittti Politti!!!
I have been playing this NON STOP on repeat. When i was a kid i thought Green was the coolest human being alive. I get goosebumps listening to this STILL
I absolutely love this music I remember dancing to it in a club in the 80s great days Green is such a talented musician and still sounds fantastic today.
The best music came out of the 80s, and i think this is in the top 5 best. I can actually say, i love every single song off Cupid & Psyche 85. This song being my favorite.
This song and album was everything when I was in high school!! On a whim I decided to revisit after 30 some years and am still in absolute awe! Mad respect Scritti Politti. Side note, Green is pretty hypnotic here. Can't stop watching. 💫
Green is a songwriting genius, David is an arrainging/synth programming genius. This is one of those bands that inspired so many succesfull artists, composers and music producers. Thanks Scritti! :)
A head of their time. This is the purest distillation of 80's electronic Pop music. I've learned so much about electronic musical composition from this band. Genius!
It’s amazing wow much enjoyment I get from listening to Scritti Politti,I still listen to their music daily.. there isn’t any music today that emanates good vibes like the 80’s music. Long live the Scritti Politti Maestros..
....you can't TELL me ABC didn't reference this Video, for their 1985 smash, "Be Near Me"!!! ...ha-HAA!! (3:06) ...I saw this ONE TIME (Fall of 1984?), and LOVED the arrogant 'unbothered' chic-ness of Green & the black Girl....I thought they were a couple! ..The Album is a MUST for 80's Dance / New Wave fans.....
Watching this video is the most delicious way to get vertigo. LOL Speaking of delicious, Hypnotize is absolute ear candy. Hell, all of Cupid & Psyche 85 is a sonic feast.
I was in college when this came out and, although my tastes were more towards industrial and post-punk, I thought this whole album was just amazing. The synth and programming work well ahead of its time. And tunes are so catchy! A real 80’s standout.
The engineering of every single hit, pluck, stab, thump and ping of this track is so exquisite, so sublime even to this day it is still a WOW on the ear.
I'm only 34, so this came out a few years before I was born. sometime in early 2022 I was driving around the mountains of northern Thailand listening to a Spotify generated playlist of songs the AI algorithm thought I'd enjoy. At some point Prefect Way came on and I had to keep repeating the song. It's crisp production, bubblegum poppy flavor and catchy melodies had me hooked in, but the fact it changed key every verse intrigued me that there was a deeper level again to this band. For week's id forgotten the name of the band, and some of the hilarious things I put into google that escape my memory now trying to track the song down proved unsuccessful. after trawling through my listening history on spotify (it was a long drive), i finally found the band. Wondering how I'd never heard of them before i decided to do some research and to my absolute shock it turns out Green was born and raised in the same valley as me in South Wales. He even went to an adjacent high school that many of my friends attended. How had this local hero escaped me for so long? Eventually I went back to listened to the first album, and was absolutely delighted to find a new wave/fusion masterpiece. This band appeals to my indie sensibilities, my pop sensibilities, and even my artsy progressive sensibilities. What a find. Thank you Spotify for randomly throwing at me what has now become one of my favourite bands ever. How i wasn't brought up worshiping these guys alongside other local hero's like the Manics, Stereophonics, Super Furry Animals, and so on is beyond me. I hope this new age of AI generated playlists exposes more people to Scritti and gives Green the recognition he deserves for such a diverse and expansive project that transcends genre and era's.
I discovered Scritti Pollitti 2 or so years ago. And I thought, wow where did this come from , Green's delivery just struck a chord as well as the band's on point rhythm section and synth aesthetic. Since then I listen to their songs every other day.
Wow! Cool! I know about Ryuichi Sakamoto. I especially love his soundtrack he composed for the movie Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence. His song "Forbidden Colors" that he got David Sylvian to sing is one of my favorites from the 80s! 💥
Before RS introduced it, Peter Barakan played on his radio program so I knew it. Then I remember RS invited three of them to his radio show and asked Green how the camera was working in this video.
Scritti politti is like....back to the future 2, you know how in 85 they tried to imitate the future , but they did it in an 80s fashion, the sound felt ahead of its time in a way but still retains the 80s strongly, but the random mish mash and switcheroo between Genres is amazing! one minute it pop, next its hip hop-ish

Wow after the decades this video is finally relaeased now!??! I remember back in the day trying hopelessly to find it! Bought the album and of course all of the remixes instead. Loved the Fairlight days of synthpop, but this song was my top fave . . . and with C&P'85 being the favourite album for quite awhile. I even went on to find the previous Green releases, travelling to London myself to fall in love with St. Pancras . . . Those were the days.
My dad introduced me to this band when I was 17 in 2018, ever since that time they are one of my favourite bands. Just, the music is the perfect balance of complexity and simplicity to be enjoyed at any time but still really fulfilling to listen to
Everytime I feel sad and depressed I listen to SP's amazing songs and I feel instantly better. Thank you for existing, Scritti Politti and Green Gartside! You bring true joy and you make a difference in people's lives,. Saying hello and wishing you good health and happiness, a brazilian fan!
This is the end of the rabbit hole of 80s pop perfection, the final boss. It was too good for that era. For a moment, I thought they were an actual revival. What a sublime, intricate pop sound that works perfectly.
Brings back memories of holidays in Cornwall. I had both his albums at the time on cassette. Played in car watching the waves. Where have the years gone :(
Green, for all his angelic tones, is a huge man. Like, 6 feet, 6 inches. He is still a stunner - I prefer his natural brun hue. And the guy’s talent & intelligence is just mind boggling.
I remember hearing this for the first time in the 60s.... about 20 years before it actually released. Totally different version with completely differnt vocals. And the part at 2:07 was way different. personally I like this final edition of the song the best. It embodies the 80s like a nutshell
this video always confused me, but in a good way ! it never made any sense, but it didn’t need to, it was super fun ! that being said, got DAMN what is happening, dude ? like, did the gang just decide: “yooooo omg u know what ? we should totally like. sit symmetrically and completely still on a sofa wearing opposite colours-“ “with like scattered items on the floor and fred and david going insane crazy ballsack mode on the beat in the background ?” “yeah !” the quality of the video rips before this release looked like they were filmed on a ti-83 calculator, and in comparison, this is like going back in time and showing napoleon playstation vr for the first time and watching his mind explode. awesome remaster !
Green Gartside & Paddy Mcaloon of Prefab Sprout had two of the most beautiful iconic voices of the 1980s ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤............x
Oh I just thought about Paddy when I listen to this
This record should have gone platinum IMHO...!!!
This album in every possible way. MASTERPIECE!
Agree in every possible way!
It was so good they couldn't tour. They rehearsed and said NOPE. They would have to hire 3 more keyboard players
Possibly even… the perfect way.
They did tour in the early 2000s, though. In the 80s they didn’t tour because Green had developed serious stage fright. Still, Green Gartside is blessed with one of the most distinctive singing voices ever. Scritti Politti rules!
I second that
One of the few perfect albums from the 80s: songcraft, execution, concept, flow, production.
ABSOLUTELY!!! I listened to it constantly!
Cupid & Psyche 85 by Scritti Politti changed my world musically. Hypnotize was (and still is) a musical marvel. There was nothing at the time that sounded like this song or the album as a whole. Painfully overlooked LP. Pure sonic genius.
Perfect Magnifique!
STILL MY FAVORITE BAND FROM THE 80s, HIS VOICE IS ANGELIC, LOVE THE BAND SO MUCH ALL THE LYRICS AND SONGS
Me too. I love them
Stumbled upon this group for the first time in 2023. It blows my mind to find classics decades later that still rock so hard!
You should look for another under rated band, there called The headboys, the song is called, The state of things to come!
I was a child in their heyday and didn't fully appreciate them, but, wow I do now though! Always had a crush on Green! 😅😊
"Hypnotize" Da-da-di-da!
Okay now imagine me at 13 hearing “perfect way” brand new and the video too. Blew my mind. So catchy and otherworldly. And still so, like this one.
I don’t know what to do with my life right now I don’t know what to do with
Green Gartside was and still is the man. Period.
“You left your love letters incomplete…” I always adored this
'I forget to believe in heaven when I look at you girl - how could your nothings be so sweet?'
@@cvoelter I though it was "How could your muffins be so sweet?"!
I can't take my eyes off what is going on in this video and literally nothing's happening
So appealing and fantastic without being vulgar, really ethereal backdrop for an even lovelier song
So many people slam this video...'not much going on'. The music is so busy that this minimalistic video provides the perfect juxtaposition. This is my favorite track from this album and I love this video
I played this album over and over and over...
Flicking through the posters in Woolworths listening to Scritti Politti on a Walkman, not that I had the money to buy a poster, just I liked looking through them and the sound of one frame hitting the next.
I've been exactly there, good times.
There is so much *happening* on the tracks on C&S '85. Incredibly complex rhythms. A brilliant album start to finish.
Incredible chord progressions and arrangements, complex and creative beats, unsurpassed sound programming combining a wide range of sounds that complement each other all over the spectrum (bright vs dark, soft vs sharp/stabby etc) . It's like getting a brain massage ;D ;D.
loved scritti politti as a kid and still love his music now and i am 49! respect scritti!
Ditto bro..🎺🎸
The nostalgia is almost overwhelming. Listening to this takes me back to a better time...almost magic. Thanks Green, David and band.
Talk about nostalgia! I watch this video and I swear I can remember the woody smell of the room where I sat watching this video. An absolute underrated 80's masterpiece!
They can do no wrong. The soundtrack of my youth! So damn good.
C&P 85 is one of my favorite albums of all-time!
In the 80's, on a trip home from college, I walked into my mom's living room and heard this fascinating sounding song coming from the tv in kitchen. I thought to myself, "this song is incredible"! I bolted into the kitchen to find the 'Hypnotized' video playing on the screen. The combination of hearing this gorgeously, intriguing song and Green's beautiful face had me hooked!

And then you woke up and realised it was just a bad dream
4life
Green is a musical genius. At that point, he was one of the most gorgeous men on the planet. Beauty fades, but talent & intelligence do not - as Green continues to prove.
First song I ever heard was Oh Patti on the radio as a teen back in '88.Been hooked on SP ever since.This is the album prior and this song & every other one on the album is mind-blowing.
Can I come back to the 80"s? Such a beautiful man. 🥰😍
Totally Hypnotize When this video came on Tv back in 1986 it was hypnotizing
OH MY GOD!!! I was TEN years old when I first this & immediately started head-noddin' & bobbin' to the funky beat when I heard a friend playing this like "who is THAT?". My mom bought me the album. It sounded so futuristic then & still bangs today. I've got to download this song and add an EQ & volume to it. Thank You Scrittti Politti!!!

From the definitive pop album of its era.
This song is literal perfection! 👌
This song a game changer..never seen an hd version of the video before.
And we all can't wait to see it! 💪
A head of their time. This is the purest distillation of 80's electronic Pop music. I've learned so much about electronic musical composition from this band. Genius!
I was so in love with Green. He is so pretty. I also played the heck out of all his albums back in the day.
Green is both a total genius and a total hottie. I was obsessed at 19. Still am .
@@THEYOGAFACE me too. Don't tell my husband though 😆
It’s amazing wow much enjoyment I get from listening to Scritti Politti,I still listen to their music daily.. there isn’t any music today that emanates good vibes like the 80’s music. Long live the Scritti Politti Maestros..
ABSOLUTELY!!! Scritti Politti are the best! 💞💪
My crush on Green will never end.🥰 What a voice that’s truly heaven sent and his aesthetic is everything🥰💜
Have you seen him lately?
@@juliansmith4295Yes, I have and he’s still 🔥🔥🔥 Next!!!!!!
He don’t like that anymore 😂
@@NicholasBorg-v9qHe still looks good to me🥰
Still swooning for Green at almost 46 years old💜💜💜
We're listening to this album on breaks in the recording studio. Brilliant. Bernard Purdie wants to know the name of the girl.
The woman in the video is B.J. Nelson according to the IMDb credits. She was the female backup singer for the band.
@@rebeccabailey9258 Not B.J. Nelson. She was on tour with Duran Duran when the video was being filmed. They found a model to mime her voice.
@@tolanstout Thank you. The IMDb for the video credits her.
Never understood how such an upbeat song had such a stoic video? It's like Green's glued to that chair.
Yeah but the chick is so hot with those eyes looking right at you….
the 12 inch single of this song wore out my record player. Where have the past 40 years gone?
Musical genius, and I truly believe that you are a beautiful person. I love this song. 🥰😘😍
1 minute 54 seconds and the magic starts - utterly gorgeous chord sequence.
one of my favorite artists of all time ...green is a melodic genius
I grew up with Green Gartside's smooth melodies. Glad to see him touring Scritti Politti again after all these years.
....you can't TELL me ABC didn't reference this Video, for their 1985 smash, "Be Near Me"!!! ...ha-HAA!! (3:06) ...I saw this ONE TIME (Fall of 1984?), and LOVED the arrogant 'unbothered' chic-ness of Green & the black Girl....I thought they were a couple! ..The Album is a MUST for 80's Dance / New Wave fans.....
2nd the MASTERPIECE. You all created an absolute masterpiece here. The entire album rocks. Funk, pop, rock…fucking every song is magnificent.
Watching this video is the most delicious way to get vertigo. LOL Speaking of delicious, Hypnotize is absolute ear candy. Hell, all of Cupid & Psyche 85 is a sonic feast.
I was in college when this came out and, although my tastes were more towards industrial and post-punk, I thought this whole album was just amazing. The synth and programming work well ahead of its time. And tunes are so catchy! A real 80’s standout.
So good!👏
The engineering of every single hit, pluck, stab, thump and ping of this track is so exquisite, so sublime even to this day it is still a WOW on the ear.
Love the "attitude" 😎
Such a brilliant track and game changing album. Thanks for uploading!
I'm only 34, so this came out a few years before I was born. sometime in early 2022 I was driving around the mountains of northern Thailand listening to a Spotify generated playlist of songs the AI algorithm thought I'd enjoy.

This band appeals to my indie sensibilities, my pop sensibilities, and even my artsy progressive sensibilities. What a find. Thank you Spotify for randomly throwing at me what has now become one of my favourite bands ever.

I hope this new age of AI generated playlists exposes more people to Scritti and gives Green the recognition he deserves for such a diverse and expansive project that transcends genre and era's.
Totally underrated band.
💯💯💯
Without a doubt
Agreed
I discovered Scritti Pollitti 2 or so years ago. And I thought, wow where did this come from , Green's delivery just struck a chord as well as the band's on point rhythm section and synth aesthetic. Since then I listen to their songs every other day.
I first time heard this song in 1985.
Japanese artist ‘Riuichi Sakamoto’ introduced it on a radio program’ sound street‘.
It’s very cool and excited!
Wow! Cool! I know about Ryuichi Sakamoto. I especially love his soundtrack he composed for the movie Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence. His song "Forbidden Colors" that he got David Sylvian to sing is one of my favorites from the 80s! 💥
No way Ryuichi Sakamoto likes Scritti Politti?
Before RS introduced it, Peter Barakan played on his radio program so I knew it.
Then I remember RS invited three of them to his radio show and asked Green how the camera was working in this video.
Love this band. Been a fan since ‘Wood Beez’ was released. Can’t wait for Absolute and Oh Patti in HD.
They are the best!
Absolute is out!
@@biancachristie Yep watched it when it came out. Waiting for Oh Patti, but that’s been awhile now?
Scritti politti is like....back to the future 2, you know how in 85 they tried to imitate the future , but they did it in an 80s fashion, the sound felt ahead of its time in a way but still retains the 80s strongly, but the random mish mash and switcheroo between Genres is amazing! one minute it pop, next its hip hop-ish
Green gartside kix ass. New album please!!!!! Good backing vocals
Lyrics for you guys xx
Lyrics
FEMALE: Hypnotize
Call me up when you thought of somethin' new for me to do girl
Hypnotize
Call me up when you thought of somethin' new for me to do girl
GREEN: How could your nothings be so sweet?
You left your love letters incomplete
Ooh, what the girl got nothing to do
Mmm, but she got that much for you
Ooh, what the girl been puttin' you through
Mmm, but she she got that much for you
Down on the beach and out in the bay
Ooh, but I heard the sirens say
You better believe her
Or you better leave her now or never
FEMALE: Hypnotize
How'd you come to be having fun with everyone but me girl?
GREEN: Forgot to tell me
FEMALE: Something good
GREEN: You, a word, knew you would
FEMALE: Hypnotize
How'd you come to be having fun with everyone but me girl?
GREEN: How could your nothings be so sweet?
You left your love letters incomplete
Ooh, what the girl got nothing to do
Mmm, but she got that much for you
Ooh, what the girl been puttin' you through
Mmm, but she she got that much for you
Out on the street, on Avenue A
Ooh, but I heard the sirens say
You better believe her
Or you better leave her now or never
Wanna tell you that your heart keeps rockin' (in your eyes)
Wanna tell you that your heart keeps rockin' (in your eyes)
Wanna tell you that your heart keeps rockin' (in your eyes)
FEMALE: Hypnotize
I forget to believe in heaven when I look at you girl
GREEN: How could your nothings be so sweet?
You left your love letters incomplete
Ooh, what the girl got nothing to do
Mmm, but she got that much for you
Ooh, what the girl been puttin' you through
Mmm, but she she got that much for you
Ooh, what the girl got nothing to say
Mmm, but I love her brand new way
Out on the street, on Avenue A
Ooh, but I heard the sirens say
Oh yeah
And it's so hard to tell you
That I love you girl (ooh baby)
And it's so hard to tell you
That I love you girl (ooh baby)
And it's so hard to tell you
That I love you girl (ooh baby)
And it's so hard to tell you
That I love you girl (ooh baby)
And it's so hard to tell you
That I love you girl (ooh baby)
And it's so hard to tell you
That I love you girl (ooh baby).

Thank you :) Anyone know who the girl is?

This song and this album are an ultimate MASTERPIECE 😎
Love love love this album - played the heck out of it in all the clubs I was lucky to DJ for. "Hypnotize" still gives me a thrill.
Yay!!! I adore this song so much!!! Truly one of the 80s gems people need to know! Can't wait for the HD upload!!!
Ice cream candy. Cookies...everything yummy about this music......i love the 80s.
『キューピット＆サイケ 85』は1985年を代表する傑作✨
その中でもこれはベストトラックだと思う
Thank you for getting me through some hard times with your music. ❤❤❤❤❤
Angelmusic. Timeless.
This what I'm talking about yall remember ❤❤🎉
One of the best songs of the 80s! Love the synths. Green and Nick Rhodes would make some interesting music
This is the end of the rabbit hole of 80s pop perfection, the final boss. It was too good for that era. For a moment, I thought they were an actual revival. What a sublime, intricate pop sound that works perfectly.
Please upload a 1080P version of Absolute. Cheers.
We're all waiting for it! 😎
I remember having the import single in high school. What a banger!
dude !!! i can’t wait to see this video remastered
ME TOO!!! 🔥
wow that voice, wow that Fairlight !! ☎☎👌👌💕💕😍😍❤❤
This song is so perfectly written.
An aural example of when pop music merges lip gloss and the human heartbeat. An exquisitely gilded Lilly.
Oh my God this is so good I forgot after all these years how much I loved this music and album!!!
Wow, gorgeous, and talented....
Thank you! 😊
@@ScrittiPolitti This is my ultimate favorite 80s song. 😘🥰😍
Is that really you responding? Or your publicist?🤪 Haha, super cool! 🥰😍😘
Brings back memories of holidays in Cornwall. I had both his albums at the time on cassette. Played in car watching the waves. Where have the years gone :(
Green is a God!!!
Underrated af Album and group
Still have a huge crush on Green.
Very underrated track! ❤
She is beautiful 😍. Love the song too
B.J. Nelson. She was the female backup singer for the band. She’s listed on the IMDb credits for this video.
Aghh I’m so excited to see this in high quality 💖
I'm not sure what I like better, Cupid &Psyche 85 or Provision
Green, for all his angelic tones, is a huge man. Like, 6 feet, 6 inches. He is still a stunner - I prefer his natural brun hue. And the guy’s talent & intelligence is just mind boggling.
Peak rhythmic and harmonic creativity right here. Wow.
I remember hearing this for the first time in the 60s.... about 20 years before it actually released. Totally different version with completely differnt vocals. And the part at 2:07 was way different. personally I like this final edition of the song the best. It embodies the 80s like a nutshell
One of the best videos ever....
Love the lyrics " Call me up when you thought of something new for me to do girl" Green introduced sardonicism into the funk pop format
Maybe not the most exciting music video, but amazing song.
this video always confused me, but in a good way ! it never made any sense, but it didn’t need to, it was super fun ! that being said, got DAMN what is happening, dude ?
like, did the gang just decide: “yooooo omg u know what ? we should totally like. sit symmetrically and completely still on a sofa wearing opposite colours-“ “with like scattered items on the floor and fred and david going insane crazy ballsack mode on the beat in the background ?” “yeah !”
the quality of the video rips before this release looked like they were filmed on a ti-83 calculator, and in comparison, this is like going back in time and showing napoleon playstation vr for the first time and watching his mind explode. awesome remaster !
The girl is everything. NEW LIFE GOALS to be her vibe.
To be as unbothered as she was sitting next to Green Gartside...a feat!
Astounding to this day!✨
Yessss! I have been waiting for this one! 💚
A fan since Lions after slumber. Great Melodies and production
Picked this up for a fiver at a boot fair years ago, rapidly became one of my favourite records. A class act from start to finish.
