Might be Cindy & Kate's best combined & harmonized vocals !
amazing song
Truly talented vocalists ❤ IMHO this one of the best R&R songs O A T 😊🎉
Vocal twins
Can we please have a rock revolution and bring back the B52s and real music.
Kate and Cindy were born to sing together. Outstanding harmony!
I've always thought so. Their voices blend and complement each other so beautifully! I love it
Top Tier...
What blows my mind is that the B-52s were already 'old' when this album came out. They were so F-ing good. They were like the coolest people no matter what generation you were from. They just maintained soooo long, as if their core beings were just 'Cool', forever and always. Love them to bits!
they are cool 24-7
Man, IDK. I respect their place in history but I don't think they'd be considered cool by modern standards, nor by people prior to the 80's, and probably by significant portions of the 80's audience as well if we're being honest.
The redhead was dummy hot af though.
Im 63 and grew up in 60s and 70s, and loved the B52s as did a lot of people i knew at the time and that was the 80s .
They were different with they're own unique style ! With all the shit about nowadays, im sure they would be appreciated .
Im quite certain there are a lot of youngsters who grew up listening to there parents music , have taken them to they're musical hearts. Tho i do respect your comments .
Yeah, I remember they were my cousin's friend's favorite group already in the early 1980s, this song was 1992?
@@hansolo631 irony of saying some one wasnt cool but using the word dummy to describe someone.. go drink another monster energy drink haha
I just realized B-52’s “Roam” is literally a perfect response/sibling to R.E.M. “Stand”. Even the video. Lyrics. Theme. Vibe. Positive yet yearning warmth. The humanity.
They are actually from the same city of Athens, GA
@@turvus2 Well yeah, I figured that was a given. They were good friends.
Another amazing fact is both songs are in the key of E
They worked together. Stipe and the redhead sang Shiny Happy People. There's footage of them performing it On SNL here on TH-cam
@@stevencoardvenice i am well aware of this, it’s literally why I commented but thanks internet music dude who loves to lecture
Cindy and Kate's voices together is magic
I know! They're so crazy similar and complimentary
Their harmony is wonderful 🤗
True, Joe.
It’s a perfect pop song
they were awesome together like eddie van halen and michael anthony coming together
One of the most unique bands of all time. It's hard to put them in a single genre. They're one of a kind and will never be matched
Yes official
They still got the pipes. SF Masonic couple weeks ago👍👏
Too bad they were practically a one hit wonder
no
@@RobertDickens2002 not even close
Who's still listening in 2024?!
Enjoy 😍 one of my favorite songs
I still enjoy them, they're just great. Så är det bara....❤
Loopin' it.
100% - The entire album! 😃
Still roaming!
It is almost impossible to be in a bad mood, and listen to the B52s. They are a natural mood elevator!
Yep, they helped me get through the Gulf War with my sanity.
Great call Corsair!
I love how Fred doesn't sing a note in this song and yet he's the hammiest performer in the video. Love that guy.
80s gays 🤷♂️💅🕺
Well, you know... it's FRED.
0:38 agreed
@@KrashyKharma
Hey, man! Cindy's not gay!
@@joelspringman7748 he...said fred
Today this song brought me comfort after learning my longtime friend suddenly and unexpectedly passed away. We were both huge B-52s fans in our teens and even had the pleasure of going to their concert together. Hearing this song comforted me with happiness during my grief. Andrew, now it’s time for your spirit to ROAM around the world and the entire dang Universe! My life was better for having you as a friend. 🙏🏽❤️
Sorry to hear about your loss.
This comment hit me right in the chest. Really sorry, sounds like you had a beautiful friendship
Sorry for your loss xx
Very sorry for your loss. Ya they rule !
Oh, my condolences. 😔
Losing a good friend especially unexpectedly IS difficult!
I've been there. She was one of the people that I attended a lot of rock concerts with together.
It's amazing how 2 women's voices intertwine with each others vocals so perfectly.
They have very similar ways of singing but they're different it's weird but it works so well.
I love the originality of the B52's no one is like them. They seem to genuinely love making music together & having a great time. It shines through on their songs. I've just watch a mini documentary with them. It confirmed my perceptions of them. Lots of smiles & laughing. The obvious take away is, they've been together forever that takes a lot of chemistry as a band.
Nailed it. Huge fan for years but, over the last few months (gearing up for a family loss), The B-52s have been a form of therapy for me. Haven't listened to anything else in months. So grateful to them.
As a kid in the 80's the lyrics went completely way over my head, but as an adult now, every song (and I mean every song) is sexual innuendo. The exception at the time I think was the music video for the song Good Stuff ... left little doubt in my mind what that was about!
They can both sing their sweet asses off
And they were already great friends when they started the band. Love and fun instead of competing egos.
isso que preciso pra dormir
I was 8. My sister was 14 with big hair. She would blast this every Saturday morning just before mom would call us down for breakfast. Then we would all watch Peewee Herman together. Life was great.
That is very cool
Such a vibe!
And your sister probably knew what the song is actually about 😊
@@brandyballoonFuckin?
@@marvelousmrjohn Yep. Roam around the world is a metaphor for explore my body. Without wings, without wheels, hip to hip, down those dirty and dusty trails, the trip begins with a kiss. It's amazing how it all seemed so innocent when I was a kid and it's so obvious now. Bushfire is another favourite of mine... I mean geez if the name of the song didn't give it away 😆
Honestly... I feel these two women have the most robustly true female singing voices ever. Their ability to just belt out lyrics is just talent!
You never heard Vika and Linda Bull then. Two south sea islanders they are magical. Do yourself a favor
@@zapkvr okay... I'll look them up.
I would say that individually they were certainly above average singers, but harmonizing together is where they really shined. I'm not the biggest fan of ABBA, but I have to admit that those two female vocalists were also on another level. Dancing Queen is another great example of a powerful harmonic duo.
Yeah I really love Heart also
Agree
Kate and Cindy the best harmonies ever, their voices synch perfecto.
Those ladies are still fine to this day
More like the best three some ever
@@Mr41nitro You would have to convert Kate first though pal she is a married lesbian. What a waste cos I quite agree with ya!!
@@andycross9840 Kate, the redhead, has a body like nobodies business!
Best harmonies indeed.
Even when I see it I can't discern whose voice is who.
Kate and Cindy are unmatched. Wish we had dozens more like this.
yes def up there but please dont count out abba for dual women
@@ronimhofffacts2858 and dance hall crashers! And cibo matto :)
i cant think of a better harmony than those two.
@Decibell one Abba, En Vouge, Phil Collins and Phil Bailey, The beatles, everly brothers, ike and tina, simon and garfunkel etc... quite a bit and all subjective. B52s were good yes but best I wouldnt say top 10 even.
@Micozane Woods ok that came from left field... I like Heart better personally Ann a d Nancy are dominant.
A unique, original, unclassifiable band with an incredible, delirious and surreal sense of humor. The combination of Kate and Cindy's voices is fantastic.
The guitar riff sounds like W.A.S.P.'s "Wild Child".
This song is an ABSOLUTE BANGER! After all these years it still makes even a small crowd go loud!
Always a hit at weddings.
It is an absolute 'banger' that's for sure.
This and Love Shack INSTANTLY fill the dance floor
Oh it's a banger all right 🤣 Lmao. It still gets me how many people have no clue this song is about sex and exploring your sexuality!!! Lol. I mean the banana through the bagel should've clued u in!!! Feel free to look it up.
@@WILLNOTCOMPLY72 I think the term 'around the world' isn't used these days is it? Isn't it something like 'helicopter' used now?
It blows my mind that this band is not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, their vocals are outstanding, incredible song writers, and master multiple instruments.
Dolly Parton is a bigger rocker.
@@anthonythompson9741 nothing against Dolly but I assume you're joking right
@@DonkeyBoyVids Sadly, I wasn't joking. She is being inducted along with Eminem into the Hall in 2022. Sad state of affairs...
@@anthonythompson9741 I meant joking in the sense that you didn't actually think that. Very aware and confused that she along with Eminem are being inducted (again, no ill will towards either of them
@@DonkeyBoyVids Oh, I see. Yeah, I had been joking in the sarcastic sense. I agree with you that I have nothing against them, but they are NOT rockers!
The B-52s are what is known as Kismet. All this talent growing up right near each other is meant to be.
Great comment!
Their vocals were second to none here. What a perfect match in harmony. So catchy and fun. Did we Gen X'rs know how good we had it with this kind of music? Probably not because we were younger. It's nice to be able to revisit all the raw talent from the 80's and 90's and further appreciate it.
Kate sings with such conviction! It's mesmerizing.
Cindy too!
The harmonies on this are PURE FIRE
They really are. I was never a big fan of this band, but I never get tired of listening to these ladies harmonize.
Check out Topaz, in fact, the whole Cosmic Thing album is amazing
They had three of the most distinctive voices of any band (unusual for any to have three) and together, one cannae contest that they were greater than the sum of the parts...
If you like harmonies doesn’t get any better than Abba
Ooh no, try Turin Brakes for harmonies.I was talking of the qualities of their voices, and how well they mesh!
I'm a 33 year old african american. My father practically raised me and my brothers on this tune on road trips since child hood...music can't compare to this nostalgia this is iconic ❤
You had an awesome father, man!
@@dysfunctionaljunction6883 ❤️
No one cares what your skin color is but you.
Did your dad also listen to “a white wedding” 😂 that and this type of music was always road trip material 😅
@@STARBLADE-XL 🤣🤣🫣
Who is still here listening to this 35 yr old vocal masterpiece?
Dancin' too!
Still a great song.
It's me for example.
34 years old
Still my fave after all these years !!!
WOW. The B-52's were so talented they transitioned to the 90's totally seamlessly. Same great voices, same great instruments, same fresh sound. GOD BLESS 'EM ALL.
Just the fact they can bring that 60's vibe and sound through the 80's and 90's was just so awesome. So many songs just remind me of the late 80's and 90's but this and Love Shack just bring me back in an instant.
Private Idaho!!
Yes, this is the best pop song they ever did. Solid song structure, wonderful vocals, and tight musicianship, too.
The intro sounds like "Wild Child" by the band W.A.S.P. that came out 4 years before this.
100%
It's close. "Deadbeat Club" has better lyrics and mines deeper emotions (the band's guitarist dying will do that), but "Roam" has Kate's "DiRRty and dusSSty trails" 🎙️
Not Channel Z?
@@stephj9378 The B-52's have a number of great tunes. I happen to think that Roam has the best flow and that Kate and Cindy's vocals are first rate. Take care & Peace!
What a track! This was an anthem when I had a year traveling and working in Australia back in 1990. Great times, great song!!
Director: "What do you guys want to do with the green screen?"
B-52s: "Yes."
Kylie McInnes that’s no green screen. Thats how their life was Filmed in real
It *IS* the B-52's, so I can't really argue with that.
@@Kylora2112 Said Perfectly - "What do you guys want to do with the green screen?"
B-52s: "Yes."
YES!
The bowling alley screen when you get a strike
This has to be the most positive video (and song) ever. Everyone in it is so enthusiastic.
It has kept me up for over 20 years. Thank you Cindy, Kate, Fred et al😀
This song has magic powers!
The intro sounds like W.A.S.P.'s "Wild Child" from 1985.
I play this every time I'm feeling down and it takes me somewhere and I don't want to return. Heavenly Bliss 👍😁
Indeed
@@davidganning8699 This song gets me through my work week especially when I don't want to be held accountable for showing up 👍
Kate & Cindy are easily the best vocal pairing in the world.
Check out Devil's Daughters "Pass That Bottle To Me." Another great match up. They need more good, and some great, songs; but they that same magic.
Definitely underrated vocalists, especially Kate! She's an amazing singer, and I have a feeling critics often overlooked her because she was in a rock band.
Yes, that's what i'm talking about!
How in the shit does this have only 8 million views? That's shocking.
One of the best pairs. There are other great pairs. Agnetha & Frida, Martha & Martha, ect.
B-52’s rule! Saw them twice in Los Angeles!!! So much fun
60 years old and I love the B-52's!!!!!
man Cindys voice in her prime was just amazing, which is to take nothing away from Kates amazing voice as well. and when they harmonize with each other it is transcendent.
Not enough people appreciate surf-punk
This was part of the soundtrack of my deployment to the Persian Gulf during the first Gulf War! Hit Pearl Harbor, Subic Bay, Singapore, Phuket Thailand, Sri Lanka, Bahrain, UAE, Saudi Arabia and Hong Kong on the way to and from, very appropriate song. I remember it blaring from the 1MC (PA system for non sailors) as we were passing Catalina on the way to Hawaii while working up on deck. This was also a staple played during our Steel beach picnics on the weekends, where we set up the barbecue and a volleyball net up on the helicopter pad, or hanging out at a bar in Thailand. Many memories. It got weird one day though when the Cure's "Killing an Arab" came on after this song, one afternoon going through the Straits of Hormouz, manning a.50 caliber machinegun. The last time I saw the Music Video of this was while having a beer at the Enlisted club at ASU Bahrain about 2 weeks after Kuwait got invaded. This song always reminds me of my time in the Navy.
Melody, lyrics, instrumentation, performance, vocals , production, video, looks..... everything is just perfect. Pop at its finest
These two ladies can harmonize beautifully and perfectly!
I couldn't agree more. Best harmony I've ever heard.
@@chaz9801 you should try the beatles, its a nice band that also had good harmonizing
@@danraviv7393 Ya, true. Or the Byrds. Lennon said that they were the best in America. Sweet harmonies. . . But Kate's legs are pretty nice too.
We. Can. ALL. Harmonize ! ! !
Who can harmonize like that nowadays?! Anyone?

@@rooseveltmccarter6087 perfeccionista xD
Fred not singing only the ladies,B52 Masterpiece.
Thank you for the full lyrics!
Its alright. The music of the B52s cannot be pigeonholed, and even in the 40 years after the 80s, it's still ahead of it's time.
These girls sure knew how to harmonize
Still do! They may be in their 60s and 70s respectively, but if anything, they pull off those vocal harmonies with even less effort these days.
I think they invented it! Just so tight!
This $hit is so hard definitely one the greatest songs ever
The B-52s belong as one of the 7 wonders of the modern world.
make b52s no1 and we have 8, my friend
What a voice. Good god. Words fail me.
YITT cudnt agree more xxx
Grand Canyon is an abandoned strip mine.
I remember my mom playing this B-52s greatest hits CD all the time growing up in the early 2000s. It always made me happy because she loved those songs, especially this one. I felt like I got to go back in time with her for just a little bit. She's still around, thankfully. Maybe I'll send her this song 😊
Same haha, it was one of the only CD’s my Mom had in her car for a while😂
Same here. The B-52s and ABBA's greatest hits CDs my mom always played growing up in the 2000s. Now I love them, too!
@@wes7189 My mom loves ABBA. Funny enough, I never got too into them, but my brother, a member of two heavy metal bands, loves them!
I think my mom had that one too lol.
Fortunate son.
Saturday August 26, 1989. After decompressing from a long bus ride north from Tampa Florida and settling into my new home living with my adopted dad and his family, I was able to listen to this song on VH-1 on my dad's tv, and then go for a walk down Maple St. Got downtown past Blinker Custard and decided I wanted a chocolate custard cone. Best tasting thing I'd had all summer. The breeze was warm, but not hot. I could smell the Sycamore's sweet sap on the wind, pulling my memory back to early child hood, in this same town, 15 years prior. Waking up to this sunny day, I knew that what I'd left behind wasn't a loss, but a stepping stone into an uncertain, but hopeful future. Those next 33 years have been full of surprises, pain, joy, and wisdom building events and emotions. Keep going, it's worth it.
My eldest son does just that, roams around the world. Seen him twice in the last 20 odd years, but he does ring every couple of weeks and has been sending me money to support my second family during the pandemic. I love him dearly.
Sounds like you have a wonderful and loving son but, ....you do know that's not what this song is about right?
@@larreetheexhortationist8878 . I never gave it much thought past the catchy lyrics. Tell me what you think it’s about and I will listen to it again and see if I agree. Cheers.
@@mitseraffej5812 Well, since your interpretation of what the lyrics are saying (not to mention the imagery in the video itself) seem to be of a much kinder nature than the writers intended...let's just leave it with the way you see it. I like that better. I actually listened to the band members years ago tell what the song was about. (not my own opinion)
I don’t think the meaning of the lyrics matter, he sounds like a good son, I hope you get to hold him soon. Keep listening and thinking of your son 🤞🏻
@@zechariahagemy166 Don’t think so but he just loves Iran. He had an Iranian girlfriend for a couple of years and use to go with her when she was visiting family. Now he has a Cuban girlfriend and thinks Cuba is pretty cool as well.
I've got a slight obsession over this band.
embrace it, i have
jada тowner I've had it for about ten years, when I first started really listening their stuff. Love this band. Surprisingly talented despite the "primitive rock" label they have been given.
rozback She's delicious... always has been. As teenager in the late 70's I was really in love with this 'old' fox...
jada тowner me two, for some reason, cant explain it. DR FREUD WHERE R U

This is just about the perfect pop song the harmonies from the girls are spot on and for me it's much more punchier than "Love Shack"
Yeah. This is a smoother groove than love shack
I wish she was my vocalist
It is my fave b52s song. Just love their harmonies so mych
They had some of the tightest harmonies and their voices were so well matched in terms of tone.
Love this song..
This is by far my most favorite song of the era. I live in Georgia and sadly I never got to see them play. The vocals in this song sends chills down my spine. None better.

Me too bro
Same bro.

For my money the best harmonizing duo in music history. Their voices are solid alone, but turn magical when they come together in energetic harmony.
surely one of the greatest pop rock bands of all time-
amazing band. If someone doesn't like them, I don't even understand. Maybe Fred's style might rub someone the wrong way, but their percussion* and vocals and totally fun quirkiness are one of a kind. * If you wonder why I single out their percussion it's because I saw them in concert at the Minnesota State Fair and they had a person on drums, and another on stuff like bongos, and damn that was something you don't see much
so unique
Absolutely spot on Michael Baurers . they are class .
without doubt Young teens when the52s were on the up happy times
yeah i reckon your right in relation to hip pop-they were just the greatest-

Vocal blending doesn't get any better than Kate and Cindy! They're like the Everly Brothers with even bigger hair.
And bigger tits.
Everly Brothers is a good comparison of the voice blending...an unqualified magic
There's something spine-tingling about those female harmonies. The B-52's and The Bangles are prime examples of that, along with Mama Cass Elliot and Michelle Phillips.
Completely agree!!

See the great big sea
Kick through continents
Busting boundaries
Take it hip to hip, rocket through the wilderness
Around the world the trip begins with a kiss
Roam if you want to
Roam around the world
Roam if you want to
Without wings, without wheels
Roam if you want to
Roam around the world
Roam if you want to
Without anything but the love we feel
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Oh! That´s why I don´t understand a thing they sang
Love it -- Kate's range is incredible and she and Cindy wore born to sing, to harmonize together. Kate was glamorous -- what a body. And gotta love Cindy's Schiaparelli-inspired sun necklace. What a band -- a sound uniquely their own.
stay away from my girly bub
and they still got it!
Nice take.
Absolutely agree!

Los B'52S nunca morirán!!! 😎✌🙌🎸🎼
Me encanta la potencia de voz de ella 😍
Recuerdo cuando salieron en la película de Los Picapiedra 1994 ésa dónde sale John Goodman
What an adorable and very pretty woman ,hello my darling ?
I'm 71. I always thought the B-52's were fun when I heard them on the radio in my late 20's, but then I spontaneously went and saw them at an amphitheater in San Diego in 1998 (the headliner was The Pretenders, by the way). This is fun music that makes you laugh and dance. Insidiously catchy...
The ambiance of the early 90's .....Beautiful,optimistic and happy
We young people were like this, in unison to these songs
es de 1989
I agree because I am a qualified lesbian
Not so sure about that... Grunge was the antithesis of that, still great music obviously..
@@nealanderson9719 I am a woman
SO GOOD VIBES THIS SONG BRINGS IN THIS DARK TIMES
Demer PIquet soo very true
Times are always dark. It is reality after all - a game of some crazy god. Do not be deceive by brief joys. It all ends up with death.
Gives hope xx
nah suns out mate...unless your going East to West..but then again nobody knows.
Always must have Hope, Mate... Alway must have Hope
that is the definition of timeless music
The end bit 'take it hip to hip rocket through the wilderness' gives me goosebumps. Kate and Cindy sing so beautifully together❤
“Boy mercury”.Best first line in any song ever.
That's also my favorite part.
This track was already a 10/10 and then comes the best bit
Kate Pierson is absolutely beautiful!
Yes!! I concur.
Hell Yes!! Too bad she is not into men.
She sure is a sexy lady.....even if I had no chance,I would still try 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Both girls
sexy af voice too ugh 😍😍💞👍😊
I was born into the world hearing my father play this music. We are both still listening 40 years later. This music has a spot in my heart to say the least and i will sing it the day i die
I am very proud of you because I am a qualified lesbian
@@ijustdidahugeshitthat’s nothing I am a tarmaccing fean
This song as been ringing in my ears since 1990
Greetings from England 🏴👍👍
Great song! It'll be perfect to play at my press event where I reveal I've been under the influence of an ancient god of death who's been hiding inside a time machine.
Hi. My name is Kenny. I use the internet to download lots of stuff and I have world wide friends due to B-52 influence!
It’s so beautiful how they came back strong after Ricky passed away. He’d have love this I’m sure
bobjordan69 , love you and prayers
This is one of the most underrated vocal performances in pop music history, and I don’t own a single B-52’s song in ANY format. I’m just glad this is here when I want/need it.
These girls had awesome voices. No autotuning either.
Phil Miller didn't exist thank god!
They are amazing.
Only unskilled people use autotune...
Fun music, but I don't hear anything awesome. Just good tone matching. Sorry. Anyone who ever sang in choir . . .
it wasnt always this way.. they had 30 years to perfect the harmonies - listen to earlier stuff and youll see what i mean.
@1:48 The resonance in their Harmony just really kicks it up. How I wish there were more songs like these with Kate and Cindy.
Same here, after all these years I'm really
appreciating these gorgeous girls voices,
So uniquely wonderful!
Voices of 2 angels.
With big hair
Fred's facial expressions.
Say so much more than any words
I can't believe that after 40 years of listening to the B52s I'm still crushing on Kate and Cindy. aaaaaah.
Had to double check to make sure I didn’t post this😹😹😹
WELL. you probably never watched any recent live appearences of them :D and please... dont do it.
@dani cali Yea, Sooner or later we all gotta get older.
Literally the greatest singers of all time... nobody on earth will ever come close to these two; they're just that good.
SO IN LOVE with Kates voice! Harmonies tighter than an ‘E’ string!
I love it that Fred still participates, even though he doesn't sing in this one.
I played this song endlessly on cassette back in the day. Played it so much, had to buy the album a second time because I basically wore out the tape.
Just in one spot!
You had a great time doing it ✔
If you didn't you'd probably be dead. I remember a friend of mine saying; You have to listen to the B52. You just have to listen. The man was right.
My friend I am with you with this wonderful song. I used to call the radio station in Toronto call cftr 680 all hits to play this song every day. God the 90s were so great back the for great songs like this.
I was very young and worked for the Hyatt Regency Waikiki in catering. I worked a birthday party for one of the children of Chris Hemmeter -- he owned the hotel. The party was in his plane hanger on the runway in Honolulu. They played this song as a Pan Am 747 landed and threw on the reverse thrusters just outside the hanger.. It's a wonder how certain songs will spark vivid memories for us all. That's what "Roam" does for me!
I know this is dark but I will have this song played at my mothers services. Few other songs take me back to childhood riding in the backseat while mom drives us kids around town. It’s one of her favorites.
Not dark bro, good memories of an easier time..
Yea what reminds one of the past is their own memory and that alone
You are a good son.
I think that would be a great tribute!
Not dark at all Sir. Im glad you can take some joy from the music that formed part of both your lives. Respect.
their harmony is unreal - you can't help but join them!
I think its the best female vocal harmony song ever
Dylan Larson they have more!!
I also like the harmony of Christine McVie and Stevie Nicks.
Mamma and papa's might have something to say bout that
I agree, but don't forget about Agnetha and Frida (ABBA).
Hard to beat, except for their other songs.
This song could even make 2020 smile.
I'm actually crying and don't know why
@@matheu5mato517 It's an amazing song!
The future is so bright, I have to wear shades.
If your future is dismal, well, sorry.
agree!!
2022. It's one of the best songs ever made, hands down 👍
I will never listen to this song the same again, knowing what I know now. SIP, Julee, and sing with the angels!
I DIDN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT SOMEONE PASSING. LOVE THIS SONG ❤
Needless to say that The B-52's are and always have been so Dope .
B52 es increíblemente maravilloso. No hay canción de ellos q no te haga creer en un mundo feliz.
1989 MTV must play rotation..Those were the final days of the old MTV...
Dee Donner Ramone ahhh yes the old days of MTV such a cool time. kids today will nevér experience the greatness that mtv use to have
I still mourn pre-Pinfield 120 Minutes.
Dee Donner Ramone the first 10 years of MTV changed soooo much about the music business. It kind of restructured WHY bands toured and how we consumed our music. But in a way, with as much nostalgia as I feel for it, in hindsight it was probably the kick off of a slow decline that has by today rendered it a dinosaur. I hate consuming music through download because I always thought one of the coolest things about being a fan was getting to touch that album after you bought it, the artwork, photos, song info, liner notes ect. I miss that.
I basically view this song as the 80s last hurrah.
@@CraftySouthpaw Blame drugs and the Airbus A320.
Essential. Always goosebumps. And that happens rarely for this 59 year old.
Song came out when I was in my 20's, they just offered me early retirement today, time to ℝ𝕠𝕒𝕞.
Congrats!!! 🤗
🎶Roam 'cause you get to, roam around the world 👏👏🎶
Take it
I'm jealous 😫
Carpe diem! Roll-on, see you down the road
This was the last song Julie Cruise( she sang the Twin Peaks theme song 'Falling') listened to when she transitioned from this realm. RIP Julie - may you roam free for all eternity.
Omg I just googled it. That's so sad and heartbreaking breaking. :( RIP
Who’s stuck inside in 2020, and enjoying this trip down memory lane??
Me.
Im horny
I'm not stuck inside. Taking long walks and hikes, working out in the yard. Spent some time yesterday at the marina washing our boat. If you're stuck inside it's just you.
Me, from Argentina!
Yes girl. So glad I was young in the 80's.... All genre's had tuuuuuunnnnneeeessss. Enjoy!!
Some people want to be rich & famous.
I just want my life to be an 80's music video.
Daymon Rondino , I never read a more true statement
Me, too!
Though this is a 90s video😁✌
@@smashrunner8954 On the cusp? lol
You can do that when you’re rich
