My daughter's dance school had a 25th anniversary night recently, I asked the d.j to play the 12" version of this....the floor was packed with mammies and daddies
Can we not have the 80s back. So much better. At least it more recognised for the great music. I will always be proud l was and still am A New Romantic.
Great song, seriously underrated band of the 80's. LOVE the sitar and middle eastern influence he incorporates into his songs. Listening again during covid and feeling VERY nostalgic. Stay safe my friends.
Love these guys. I remember going to see Blancmange in '83 at the Hammersmith Palais. A standing only venue that soon turned into a magically happy sweaty disco of swirling synthesizers and sitars. Brilliant concert, and all for just £3.50p. Although the memories remain priceless.
@@nc5809Thanks very much. I remember that after the concert my blue and black rugby shirt was so sweaty I had to wring it out on the Hammersmith Palais steps before heading off to the underground home. Happy nights 🧡
Una banda que hace apenas unos días conocí, y eso que soy ultra fanático de la música de los 80's. Esta es la canción que más me gusta de Blancmange 🎶🫵😍🎶
SUPER SONG HABE ICH DAMALS 20MAL HINTEREINANDER GEHÖRT UND DIE KASSETTE IMMER WIEDER ZURÜCK GESPULT. DAS WAREN SCHÖNE ZEITEN UND UNVERGESSEN UND ZEITLOS IST DIESE MUSIK.
Saw a 20 second clip on a best of 1984 utube video......I was 12 then....went on a search to find the other hits of these guys I grew up with......loved them when I was a kid.....
That movie brought me here lol! Man I would have loved to have been in my early 20s in the 80s! Charlie Sheen walking around the nightclub with this playing was awesome - almost Miami Vice like 😎
U571...had a diverse taste myself...but they were x Cellan then and now..and I'm drawing pension....with my drinking couldn't get off the floor..let alone see the ceiling ...but I know it word 4 word...wasn't all bad ..hic.
Wow those synths sounds ahead of its time even now as lots of artists are trying to recreate these sounds but they lack the minimalist sound of this era
I only know 'Living on the Ceiling' from this lot. A wonderfully mad song. This seems more restrained, and the singer's lost his chimney sweep haircut!
I’m not sure I actually remember this one but it’s wicked never the less! Wasn’t all music supposed to be something like this after the turn of the century? And here we are In 2019 and music is just shit!
Certainly a contender for best song of the 80’s imo.
Certainly up there.
Such happy upbeat songs. I miss those days

I've still got the 12" version , the one with the Budgie on the front cover ;)
LIMITED EDITION VERSION
@@Theoriginalbigbrillo that's the version I asked him to play...the best version
12" is brilliant
Awesome 👍🏻
Can we not have the 80s back. So much better. At least it more recognised for the great music. I will always be proud l was and still am A New Romantic.
That beautiful hypnotic synth was so popular around this time, great stuff.
Great song, seriously underrated band of the 80's. LOVE the sitar and middle eastern influence he incorporates into his songs. Listening again during covid and feeling VERY nostalgic. Stay safe my friends.
Great song indeed! Stumbled on this band on the Limmy's show, of all places. Btw Sitar and tabla are Indian, not middle eastern.
Love these guys. I remember going to see Blancmange in '83 at the Hammersmith Palais.

These stories are priceless. I was born around when this happened

Happy nights 🧡
April 23rd, 1984. Better weather ... and much better feckin days!
So much fun, a wonderful bouncy and seriously brilliant song.. Well done fellas again and just so underrated..
Una banda que hace apenas unos días conocí, y eso que soy ultra fanático de la música de los 80's. Esta es la canción que más me gusta de Blancmange 🎶🫵😍🎶
Remember like it was yesterday, Good times
Absolute classic. Mid-80s bliss with not a care in the world. Take me back🤔
Recently saw them supporting Howard Jones in Cardiff.
All of a sudden I was a teenager again.
Such an uplifting song, love Blancmange
It was one of the very first songs I was totally obsessed about, when I started to be musically conscious at age of 11. Still love it.
A forgotten 80s classic.
Great quality upload.
One of the most underrated synthpop bands
I’ve never heard of them until this video recommended. I like it!
Whats😊 with the red dot on his forehead?
@@duane_313 Nor should we exaggerate, they had several great hits, they were a mainstream group.
Love the deep voice.
Great artist!!! Still good looking!!!!
Neil Arthur, handsome as ever
SUPER SONG HABE ICH DAMALS 20MAL HINTEREINANDER GEHÖRT UND DIE KASSETTE IMMER WIEDER ZURÜCK GESPULT. DAS WAREN SCHÖNE ZEITEN UND UNVERGESSEN UND ZEITLOS IST DIESE MUSIK.
Just brilliant I miss those days
Wow what a classic.
Probably their ultimate party track.Under rated early 80s band.
Saw a 20 second clip on a best of 1984 utube video......I was 12 then....went on a search to find the other hits of these guys I grew up with......loved them when I was a kid.....
80s forever !!!
Brilliant!
Saw them support human league last August was quality.
Listened to their music on repeat in the 80's, times were wonderful
Nightclub scene in the film no mans land. 80s were awsome what a decade for music😀😀
Sonicglen101 “ this is for Malcolm “
That movie brought me here lol! Man I would have loved to have been in my early 20s in the 80s! Charlie Sheen walking around the nightclub with this playing was awesome - almost Miami Vice like 😎
Brilliant tune from 84 takes me back when just left school in may very underated group
U571...had a diverse taste myself...but they were x Cellan then and now..and I'm drawing pension....with my drinking couldn't get off the floor..let alone see the ceiling ...but I know it word 4 word...wasn't all bad ..hic.
I left school in 85
Remember this so well.
I always thought Blancmange had a charismatic vocalist, those 2 big hits of theirs I still enjoy to this day.
80s music gets the thumbs up from me
I Love this song 12-24-2023. 🥀
Excellent
My favourite this don't tell me and on the ceiling
Those are awesome songs... I also can say blind vision is another great song
Same here. Two classics 80's
Top track !!
What a tune 🤙🏻👊🏻
Give me a one way ticket back to the 80s
Never noticed how much Indian instrumentation there was in this song. Fantastic!
Long live the 80s...what a blast...can I go back there
Excellent song
euronick61 one of my favourite bands of the 80s, seen them live 3 times in last couple of years brilliant
Excellent quality, well done!
Yes, what a great sound! The uploaded did well (& so did Blanc mange ;))
Who is here in 2019 to here great music and not the shit they have today
Me love it 70s baby still love the 80s
Best band of the 80's without a doubt.
OMG such a memory
Just brilliant
Brilliant! unforgettable song🎵💗
one of the most underrated bands of the 80s! compare this sound to nowadays shit they call "music"
Yep
Definitely agree on this.
Not another one of the most underrated bollex again🙄 they seem to have done pretty fucking well
Wow those synths sounds ahead of its time even now as lots of artists are trying to recreate these sounds but they lack the minimalist sound of this era
I know right so progressive
80's Synth sounds were unmistakable !
Anyone who thinks for even a moment today's music can be compared to this brilliance needs a hearing aid
I need a hearing aid ( but won't get one ) but yeah I agree.Most music pre 2000 was objectively better.
and a dig in the bollocks just for thinking such nonsense
Pardon
@@russgas Look at Beach House, Tame Impala, Tyler, The Creator, Mac DeMarco and more
So true 👏👏
Still making really good albums too.
beautiful Neil ❤️🤣great hair 🤣
So talented
I LOVE Erasure - but don't tell me they didn't model their whole look/image on Blancmange... well, until Andy discovered spandex of course ;o)
Zajebiste!!!!
This is just perfect!! Those synths!!!
Oh, what a brilliant song, it's their greatest..
Rob hatch dancing really funnily
takes me back love it
Beautiful 🎶🎶🎶
quality upload thx
Another superb piece of music that distracted us from the horrors of the miner's strike here up north.
Brilliant song, expertly mimed by Blancmange :)
Love it ...2019...36 years later 💓 !!!! Herb
Quite why he’s sporting a Bindi is beyond me.
My favourite 80s band out of all the other fantastic bands.
He was nice looking
Abs belting.chune. Great memories as a youngster. Much happier times for many.
Legend s no comparison to today’s tasteless music absolutely beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Bloody brilliant, so much better than the rest
Who wants to go back in time brilliant song.remember this been played in the film no mans land nightclub scene
This is Isaac Atterbury.I am presently on Facebook.I LOVE the song, The singer, and the background dancer.(Isaac Atterbury).(6-17-18).
I only know 'Living on the Ceiling' from this lot. A wonderfully mad song. This seems more restrained, and the singer's lost his chimney sweep haircut!
Great song! Now I know who taught Peter Garrett from Midnight Oil how to dance!
Amazing song!
Analogue synth is fucking sexy
maybe my favourite song from this era
Really love this song x
Old stuff will reign forever!
Thankyou xxxxx
Classic 80’s 😀
A fine performance
I first heard this song in a great 80s movie called No Man's Land.
So freaking Kool. 2021. 😚

This music had inside dream and vision
Love blancmange
Beautiful man c
Great song and production
Bei tempi,grandi Blancmange 👍👍👍
Genius ❤
I’m not sure I actually remember this one but it’s wicked never the less! Wasn’t all music supposed to be something like this after the turn of the century? And here we are In 2019 and music is just shit!
Lil Wayne is remaking this song!!
jquest43 I rest my case. 😬🥸🙄😖
@@U2QuoZepplin haha
🤮
No mans land. Charlie Sheen 🤗
The intro for this song sounds like a tune for a Sherbet Island racetrack from Diddy Kong Racing!

To listen to real music xxxx
@@melgrant7404 its good to see others who also enjoy good music
Seen these in Derby at the flower pot , absolutely brill.

"Just introduced to them" are you serious? Where have you been hiding? or maybe you're young.
80s wish I grew up in that era!
Best Song ever
