    Lyrics
    You gotta speed it up
    And then you gotta slow it down
    'Cause if you believe that a love can hit the top
    You gotta play around
    And soon you will find
    That there comes a time
    For making your mind up.
    You gotta turn it off
    And then you gotta pull it out
    You gotta be sure that it's something
    Everybody's gonna talk about
    Before you decide
    That the time's all right
    For making your mind up.
    Music video by Bucks Fizz performing Making Your Mind Up. (C) 1981 SONY BMG MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT (UK) Limited

    Why songs like this are so popular can be seen when in the numerous quiz shows on TV a question on 70s or 80s Eurovision is answered in a split second.
    Yet when any modern stuff is in a question you often sees younger quizzes look blank.
    Bucks Fizz were an example of a group that made happy music and probably little money.
    Even though the group members always appeared to have their heads screwed on, record companies seemed to rule the roost until the Spice Girls emerged fifteen years later.
    Society would probably more happier if music like this was regularly recorded.

    🙂 I remember watching this on Top of the Pops (when I was 11) as the entry for the Eurovision song contest hopefuls. I remember how "scandalous" it seemed when the skirts were ripped off. There was a huge energy about them and everyone in the UK went nuts when they won the Eurovision. How time has flown!

    • @GothiicAngels
      @GothiicAngels 3 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      Incidently, Cheryl Baker said that when the guy ripped off the part of the skirt, he actually caught her skin as well, hence why she looked at him oddly
