    I lived through the 80's and didn't remember this song. But Napoleon Dynamite made me love it! 😁

    The very definition of One Hit Wonder

    After When in Rome, you should check out Johnny Hates Jazz if you haven't already. They were also from England, made it big in 1987, stayed popular for one album and a few singles, and dropped like a fly after that. They were also synth-y sophisti-pop. Shattered Dreams and Turn Back the Clark are worth listening to.

    Love this song. Always have. Great choice! Yes, one hit wonder.

    This tune never misses an 80'S pop playlist for me.

    Great reaction! You should react to "If You Leave" by OMD (Orchestral Maneuvres in the Dark) next. You'll love it.

    • @Una...

    Back in the day, I was bummed too that they didn't release more songs, but that one song, "Promise", made up for it 😊

  • @jaquettajones
    @jaquettajones หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Tons of New Retro Wave Synth artist out there doing the 80's thing. So Good!

    I've always loved this song! It came out when I was in college back in 1988. When that chorus kicks in, it hooks you.

    Love this song so much. Danced and sweat to it in the 80s and still include it in almost every playlist I create. Great choice Scott and as always, great work Sal!

  • @theresam.hoffman5841

    Great reaction to a great song. When you get the chance, you should listen to Sturgill Simpson's cover of it - talk about a completely different take on a song - it's amazing.

  • @ohfour-seven6228
    @ohfour-seven6228 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Scott, thanks for this, love this song! I had friends who were DJ's and got me into mixing. I have the 12" extended mix of this, it's incredible! Sal, this is very representative of the music in the alternative dance clubs in the mid 80/early 90's. Groups like New Order, Book of Love, Depeche Mode, Pet Shop Boys, Kraftwerk, Gary Numan, Thompson Twins, Tears For Fears, I can go on and on. Sure was fun in those days!!!

  • @franky4318
    @franky4318 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I always loved this song since the very first time I heard it on the radio in 1988 . It's part of my favorites play list ❤ Thanks Sal , for reacting to 80s music.

  • @ConspiracySmurf

    We heard this during "dedication hour" once or twice on the radio... *giggles* Subbed, you passed the vibe test. :)

  • @songbird989

    Love this song! I ran out and bought the cassingle after hearing it on the radio the first time lol. Omg all the feels!
    "Its got a good beat and I can dance to it" ..an infamous 80s quote lol.

    Dude, you’re finding all the classics from my high school years. After your love for Erasure, I hoped someone would send you this! Love your reactions so much! Keep it up!!!! Next up Alphaville (Forever Young, especially), and Depeche Mode! ❤️

    Going to throw this song out there again that I am sure you will like. "Captain of Her Heart" from the group Double.

  • @EchoesDaBear
    @EchoesDaBear หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Great reaction Salvo!! I can attest to this being a hit when it came out (at least here in Canada) - short lived, but a hit! That synth groove is infectious, but that chorus is incredible! Funny how some things just don't take off!
    If you'd like to try another one-hit wonder, check Kiss You When It's Dangerous - by Eight Seconds. Group out of Ottawa, Canada. It's got another killer hook! Cheers.

    Hi Salvo, Have you ever heard or reacted to any Pet Shop Boys songs? They have been releasing music since 1985, and just released a new album recently. "West End Girls", "It's a Sin", "Heart", "What Have I Done to Deserve This?", "Domino Dancing", "So Hard", "Being Boring", and many other of their songs are catchy, beautiful ear candy, if you love 80s synth pop! 🎉

  • @bettyf584
    @bettyf584 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    So now you have to check out Superfruit’s cover of this song. I think you will love it

    I think I had every remix of this song that was put out! I got to see them live last year at the Lost 80's tour. I cried when they played this!

  • @Macdelaven
    @Macdelaven หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I grew up in the 70s and in the 80s I was really surprised at how much synth-pop music I enjoyed and added to my music collection. I had forgotten this song until I heard it at the end of "Napoleon Dynamite" and I still remembered the lyrics. I love this song. I totally understand your reaction.

  • @frankennyg1

    I love the dichotomy between the two singers. One is bald and one has the hair of Hercules.

    yes. only one album. but listen to it all. the first 'side' of the lp is terrific all around.

    The sound of the late 80's.

    I love this song! It reminds me of the late 80s when I was starting high school. Very nostalgic!

  • @timothysassanella272
    @timothysassanella272 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    We totally got into this one - we heard it from a tape version of the album from a bargain bin at Best Buy for $3. The whole album is great. I was surprised they were Brits from 88... they look more like Canadians from 95-ish.

    Another great, interesting 80s song is Life in a Northern Town. These are always the songs that interested me from that decade - not the ballads of Chicago or stuff by Madonna.

    In this same vein of synth-pop ... PLEASE listen to "True Faith" by New Order.

    You like synth pop from the 1980s? Here's another one-hit wonder for you: "You Don't Know" by Scarlett & Black (1988, reached #20 on the Billboard Top 100, and #13 on the Adult Contemporary chart).

    The hot one with the long hair is constantly posing for the camera in the video. It's funny. Just count the number of hair flips he does throughout the video. But I guess if I had hair like his I'd have trouble keeping my hands off it too.

    @kevinm9999 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I prefer the original 12inch dance mix. There were two dance mixes. One was called the”colosseum mix.” It was horrible. They threw in every sound effect available and it overwhelms the song.
