This song rocks.Not heard it for a good few years now,but it's still as fresh and vibrant as ever.It hasn't dated one bit.Benny,Bjorn and Tim Rice's offering is a song for the ages.So vibrant.Never get tired of it. It's a superb arrangement and production
This was my dad's favorite song. He loved Thailand when he lived there. Out of the 60 countries he lived in as a CIA agent, it was his favorite along with Spain. My dad passed away 5 years ago November 7th. We played this at his funeral. RIP DAD. I know you lived your life to the fullest
@Snake Griffin I have a half brother somewhere in Asia(Japan or Korea) name was tattooed on my dad. After my dad's death, I read letters and was sad. Only because he had to grow up without my dad's love that I miss so much. He may never have had a "father" to provide and love him.
No shit, I was in. highschool in the 80s. Better era than today's generation. It was a different time, people spoke differently, different attitudes, different atmosphere. The way of living back was different
@levis6945 I'd go back in a heartbeat, but also, I wouldn't change much, just not take life so seriously and enjoy the ride a lot more, have more faith in myself and others.
In 1979 I has a one of those black box cassette recorders, and I recorded this song off the radio, with the little microphone that came with it...I thought it was so cool, and I thought I was so cool that I loved this song so much. I was 11 years old. I just looked at the release date of this song, and it was on my birthday, August 21. I still love it so much, and my 16 year old daughter does too! 💛🧡❤
There's definitely a similarity between the chorus of this and Gimme Gimme Gimme A Man After Midnight. Indeed the second half of the chorus is more or less the same notes and chord pattern. Both work though!
What makes this version great is that he is interpreting the lyrics in character and he is also keeping time with the music. This is flavorful. This is a hard song to sing/rap.
As young teenager in the 80s watching my beloved days of MTV, VH1, I enjoyed this song and video. I thought to myself, I am eventually going to go to Bangkok. I did as an adult. Phuket, Chang Mai, Chang Rai and Bangkok to be exact.
There was one night when i was in Bangkok....suddenley, some bar played this song....while i was listening in awe, a guy came by clapped me on my back saying:"man, this is Bangkok" , smiled an disapeared in the night...i will never forget this
Specifically remember this song as a young man before I started my family....now its all gone and time moves on and so much has happened...and one day...this song plays again to bring back memories of days gone by...n...
Every time when I hear this song in the radio on a german station something changes in my live. I was so astonished when I realized this, but it is the reality. It remembers me the past! Thank you for your work and sharing this song with us!
Gotcha covered there boss. Shoot man when I was a youngin *Black and White TV was BRAND SPANKING NEW.* Before TV it was *just RADIO. Hot tubes WIRES metal that MIGHT CUT YOU!!!* Weren't no safety helmets when I WAS A BOY... And alla us ended up *tougher than ANY of y'all... Put that in your hooka & blaze it....*
The fading moments of American exceptionalism, political correctness wouldn't be born until the morning. Tonight we ran the city streets free and young. The last of the guilty free
It's so exotic. And Bangkok is a very exotic destination I found out years later for myself sometimes actually going for, 'one night in Bangkok,' listening to this song before heading out on a bus or flight. All the knowledge we had of anything was a world globe with place names on it which was for our geography classes. Times have completely changed.
I know several dudes that gave up working on cars in the early 2000's. The fun went out of it. Remember just changing the alternator? The whole car was like that. No bullshit.
This song is soo special, it speaks for itself! I have loved , And. ( understood it), the song is about Chess. Wow! Soo smart. Thank you ,Mr Murray Head!
i was in bangkok a month ago - i was at the reclining buddha - and when he says the bars are temples but the pearls aint free hes refferring to the girls ( hookers)
A remarkable accomplishment. All the parts come together to create a magical hit. I liked it from the first hearing 30 years ago but I never knew who the voice was. He seemed to have no identity. Today I learned about Murray Head.
80's music burst on the scene like an explosion...intrigue so hot burning down the house, scratching hard an itch in places, jumping to dance, great time to peak in be alive....
I remember laying in bed listening to this song on a sweet gold colored Sony Walkman. Brand new model at the time and not much bigger than the cassette tape that went inside. Man i sure do miss that Sony Walkman! Oh, the song...yea cool song. 10/10 for uniqueness
The intro is apotheotic and mind blowing! 02:31 The oriental flute always gives me the chivers and takes me to another exotic dimension. One of my two favourite songs.
So glad I grew up in this time. Dancing, in clubs back then was the best fun times!!! Evreyone dressed to kill, and we all just were having fun together. God times have changed.
@@ingridschier6711 Hi Ingrid, nice to meet you. I live in Texas, but my family is from Austria. Hope you still enjoy your music. My freind and I put up some lights on the deck, drank wine and danced, fun times.
I can remember getting stoned and discussing the merits of this becoming a movie. It's been 21 years and I *still* think we were right, this song would make a cool movie.
+Resty Mervin Ponio +Alberta RoseActually this has already been made into a movie... well, as close to a movie as it will ever get. The soundtrack was recently updated and produced as a stage movie with Edina Menzel as Florence, Josh Grobin as Sergievski, and several other musical superstars. I have this on DVD and, with the exception of a few lyric changes that I deeply hate, the whole thing was pretty spectacular and worth every penny.
I was in my late teens when my family got a satellite dish. It was one of those solid white 8ft wide things. After it was installed we were able to get a ton of stations. One of them was MTV and they were playing Bangkok. I've always enjoyed since then. soon after rock me amadeus which is another I remember
Emily B my uncle sings good night papa it’s hard to die to the tune of seasons of the sun when he’s about to checkmate my father. I always think about chess when i hear that song lol
I heard this song for the first time last year and I honestly thought it was a new release, I had no idea it was such an old song..which only tells me this is a timeless piece.
Jean D I take it your replying to Christdragons comment But you say 80's were all synthesizer + Hairspray that isn't true is it examples you had bands + solo artists that were not all synthesizer like: Big Country, The Cure, Suzanne Vega, Billy Idol, U2, Dire Straits, The Police, Iron Maiden, Tracy Chapman, The Bangles, Prince, Bruce Springsteen, etc etc And as for Hairspray hell some people did and dome people didn't-I also grew up in the 80's and people also sometimes used Hair Gel, Or Mousse, Hair Wax,........or sometimes did nothing to it

"I get my kicks above the waistline, Sunshine" is on my list of Favorite Song Lyrics Ever Written. Figures Benny and Bjorn would have been behind that. And all about chess, no less.
How can you beat the 80s so funky so strange and weird need that in our time now , it created my life and I’ll never forget the 80s shame I can’t say that now .
We arrived in Bangkok yesterday afternoon. I couldn't resist playing this song once we got to our hotel room. Finally here!
@Mitchell A We definitely didn't play any chess.
This song rocks.Not heard it for a good few years now,but it's still as fresh and vibrant as ever.It hasn't dated one bit.Benny,Bjorn and Tim Rice's offering is a song for the ages.So vibrant.Never get tired of it. It's a superb arrangement and production
this song sucks, what are you talking about? anyone who "talks" in a song...isn't singing. so its not a song.
❤❤❤
Exactly
Takes me way back to the nights of so much fun dancing and out with my friends. Love this. Thank you.
This was my dad's favorite song. He loved Thailand when he lived there. Out of the 60 countries he lived in as a CIA agent, it was his favorite along with Spain. My dad passed away 5 years ago November 7th. We played this at his funeral. RIP DAD. I know you lived your life to the fullest

My deepest condolences for your loss.
God Bless your dad! Thankful for his service!
@Snake Griffin I have a half brother somewhere in Asia(Japan or Korea) name was tattooed on my dad. After my dad's death, I read letters and was sad. Only because he had to grow up without my dad's love that I miss so much. He may never have had a "father" to provide and love him.
May he suffer forever in hell.
I saw my local university perform this in 2022. How awesome it was for these college students to experience this.
I miss the 80s
Nooooooo
I was just a kid back in the 80's, but I miss them so much.
No shit, I was in. highschool in the 80s. Better era than today's generation. It was a different time, people spoke differently, different attitudes, different atmosphere. The way of living back was different

God I love the harmony of the background singers. Sets such a perfect feeling for this song.

How I missed the 1980s so much music movies and TV shows and sports events
Some of the best music ever made was done in the 80's!!!!💚💜💛
David Ellwood Because we were there!
Patricia Hill yes u right also before the 80s music was good as well.
The eighties, in my view, was about the worst time in music history. But tastes differ.
absolutely!!
Most😁😁
1/2 ABBA here ! first time I heard this tune on the radio in 1985 I instantly recognized Benny's synth and Bjorn's lyric style. I was thrilled .!
There's definitely a similarity between the chorus of this and Gimme Gimme Gimme A Man After Midnight. Indeed the second half of the chorus is more or less the same notes and chord pattern. Both work though!
2024 and I'm still loving this . Great play on words in these verses
What makes this version great is that he is interpreting the lyrics in character and he is also keeping time with the music. This is flavorful. This is a hard song to sing/rap.
So glad I was a kid in the 70's and 80's and had songs like this to listen to on the radio.
and MTV!!!!! Yay for OG MTV
i'm envy
I’m 41 and just heard this song on the radio for the first time...I must have been under a Rock...this is epic
there are many others..Much more good music from 7,8,90 years..
Excelente tema 👌💖🎧 me encanta y me recuerda mí juventud WOW los años 80❤.😅

Ha! I had completely forgotten about this song/video. Brings back the fun of the 80's! Miss those days....
Having lived in Bangkok for four years this song sums the city up perfectly.
@Bruce Stephan Not that I remember, but they should do.
“Not much between despair and ecstasy.” Amen.
I haven't heard this in many years and now I realize that it is a truly brilliant song!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't this song banned there?

Lyrics
Bangkok, Oriental setting
And the city don't know that the city is getting
The creme de la creme of the chess world
In a show with everything but Yul Brynner
Time flies doesn't seem a minute
Since the Tirolean spa had the chess boys in it
All change don't you know that when you
Play at this level there's no ordinary venue
It's Iceland or the Philippines or Hastings or
Or this place!
One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
You'll find a god in every golden cloister
And if you're lucky then the god's a she
I can feel an angel sliding up to me
One town's very like another
When your head's down over your pieces, brother
It's a drag, it's a bore, it's really such a pity
To be looking at the board, not looking at the city
Whaddya mean?
Ya seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town
Tea, girls, warm, sweet
Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite
Get thai'd, you're talking to a tourist
Whose every move's among the purest
I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine
One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
Not much between despair and ecstasy
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
Can't be too careful with your company
I can feel the devil walking next to me
Siam's gonna be the witness
To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness
This grips me more than would a
Muddy old river or reclining Buddha
And thank God I'm only watching the game controlling it
I don't see you guys rating
The kind of mate I'm contemplating
I'd let you watch, I would invite you
But the queens we use would not excite you
So you better go back to your bars, your temples
Your massage parlours
One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
You'll find a god in every golden cloister
A little flesh, a little history
I can feel an angel sliding up to me
One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
Not much between despair and ecstasy
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
Can't be too careful with your company
I can feel the devil walking next to me

Merci beaucoup pour les paroles !! 🤩❤️💙
Every time when I hear this song in the radio on a german station something changes in my live. I was so astonished when I realized this, but it is the reality. It remembers me the past! Thank you for your work and sharing this song with us!
Another reason why I love TH-cam. It helps me find little childhood gems like this which I completely forgot about
Maybe gone but not forgotten.😀.

As a teen I liv it
still is...I'm only watching the game controlling it...
thank god
andrew it was and still is the best era of music
So was I in the spring of 1984 as an eight graders.
Summer 1985. An awesome time to be alive and young.
I AGREE THIS WAS SOME GOOD MUSIC I WAS 18.
yeah absoluty agree with that, dude ;)
@@bigken5032 I was 20. Loved the 80s. We were lucky....
I was 14 and in 7th grade and I had a massive crush on this one girl.😁
The fading moments of American exceptionalism, political correctness wouldn't be born until the morning. Tonight we ran the city streets free and young. The last of the guilty free
I remember watching this back when MTV only did videos. Indeed a classic, and on my jam list!
I was so fascinated by this song as a kid. Even back then it was unique.
Same here, not a copy cat or sound alike for sure!

Made me want to visit Bangkok just to see if I really would tremble. Or crumble. Haven't visited yet. Will post results later.
I love this song.
Real 80s sound. 😎✌️👍
1985 brought me here and I say welcome to all the new listeners. Enjoy.
thank you! we will...!!!

Good.
I discovered this song by accident on limewire. I then decided to go to Bangkok mostly because of this song.

Serendipity is a wonderful thing.
Do not tell me what you got upto as that could be a tad TMI for my poor old ticker 😜
This is from 1984.
Love this, and I was lucky enough to see on stage in London when I was 26 gosh 30 years ago!!
The eighties were bangin!! And it was even easy working on cars too!
I know several dudes that gave up working on cars in the early 2000's. The fun went out of it. Remember just changing the alternator? The whole car was like that. No bullshit.

The American obviously that’s what you think because your name is the American, it’s about chess
Its alot more then chess and bangkok.
i was in bangkok a month ago - i was at the reclining buddha - and when he says the bars are temples but the pearls aint free hes refferring to the girls ( hookers)
i thought it is about playing chess in Bangkok Thailand
there was world championship chess match in Bangkok between Gary Kasperov and genius american player whos name escapes me now in 1986 I believe.
Reminds me of my childhood. So glad I was a youngster in the 80s. We had too much fun even without the technology of today. I miss them days.
Same here.
Lucky you
Of all the songs about chess tournaments in Thailand that have flute solos, this is easily in the top 5

Brilliant!

Augusto's discount helicopter rides awesome that I accidentally hit message! I fly r,c Helicopter's! Hard 3D!

Very catchy tempo. Always thought so from its release. Among many other songs melding 'odd' rock with disco during its time.
I think it's the tempo of an excited heartbeat..

This song is simply fantastic I love it so much
me too
i love 80's music
Rufo Botero so much better than today’s 🤢
As a child of the 80's I love this song.
A remarkable accomplishment. All the parts come together to create a magical hit. I liked it from the first hearing 30 years ago but I never knew who the voice was. He seemed to have no identity. Today I learned about Murray Head.
Bruce Deitrick Price Murray Head was also the lead singer on the record edit of "Jesus Christ Superstar ".
“One night in Vancouver “ listening to Murray Head , yeah! The best time of my life the 80’s, forever gone until today!
all I know is it gets my day started I enjoy living back to the 80s it was my time primetime
2018 and the music from the 80's still with us forever.
After all these years this song is still fantastic.
80's music burst on the scene like an explosion...intrigue so hot burning down the house, scratching hard an itch in places, jumping to dance, great time to peak in be alive....
I remember laying in bed listening to this song on a sweet gold colored Sony Walkman. Brand new model at the time and not much bigger than the cassette tape that went inside. Man i sure do miss that Sony Walkman! Oh, the song...yea cool song. 10/10 for uniqueness
Listening to this while staying in the Avani Riverside in Bangkok. All I can say is WOW!!!
They are like Solid Gold dancers on the chessboard, ❤it! Music back then had originality, passion and authenticity. I sure do miss that.
The intro is apotheotic and mind blowing! 02:31 The oriental flute always gives me the chivers and takes me to another exotic dimension. One of my two favourite songs.
Michelpp written by geniuses Michel does help 😊
One of my favorites from the 80's - makes me laugh every time I hear it.
"I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine".
So glad I grew up in this time. Dancing, in clubs back then was the best fun times!!! Evreyone dressed to kill, and we all just were having fun together. God times have changed.

Never left listening to the fantastic music and artists of the 70s80s

+Alberta Rose This song is from a musical maybe they will make a movie out of it one day
lol... did u stop smoking pot at all since then?:)
Man I haven't heard this song in like 30 years. This was my jam.
Nice Tiffany, I can relate. It was a different time and era.
This song was so ahead of its time.
Agreed
Alexander McGrath an 80s song with religious and sexist undertones would’ve fit right in with our not at all sensitive generation.
It's still is, even today. If it came out today it wouldn't sound like anything from the past, present and the future.
Tim Rice Need I say more?
I was in my late teens when my family got a satellite dish. It was one of those solid white 8ft wide things. After it was installed we were able to get a ton of stations. One of them was MTV and they were playing Bangkok. I've always enjoyed since then. soon after rock me amadeus which is another I remember
After all these years, it's still kickin' ass
2019..and still never loses its musical attraction ...
2018 and Bangkok is still the same. God I love that city.
Got my ass kicked in Lempini more than once... Love that whole country...
No one
after 2018
Simplemente hermoso vídeo y canción y si actuación en este maravilloso escenario de musica.
80s.. We didn't know how good we had it. "Angels sliding up to us and devil's walking beside us" 🕶
All around us all times dance of destiny..
We are just one step ahead of "him"
"I get my kicks above the waistline sunshine."
Is that how angels move about? They 'slide'? I'd love to see what that looks like! :)
Can't be too careful with your company...
Awesome song from an equally awesome musical!
"I get my kicks above the waistline, Sunshine." Best line in the whole song.
Definitely
'One night in Bangkok & makes a hard man humble'.... is a very close second..
Great 80's song and mentions Yul Brynner in it too my favourite actor.
this song is STILL a lot of fun!
This is the definitely the coolest song about chess ever made.
What was the second coolest song about chess ever
made. Would 100 Bottles Of Beer On The Wall
qualify?
It's about the souls of man
fntime Annihilator - knight jumps queen
Emily B my uncle sings good night papa it’s hard to die to the tune of seasons of the sun when he’s about to checkmate my father. I always think about chess when i hear that song lol
Out of the hundreds of songs written about chess, (and this is a very difficult decision to make, considering) this is the best song about chess.
Who's still here 🏴☠️🤘
Me! Worked in a theatre in the 90s, so I'm always coming back to this one from Chess ❤
Yo sigo,,,, música buenísima.

This was great music. Wish we had this again.
"you're talking to a tourist, whose every motive is nothing but the purest..." LOL, perfect. Love this song.
....you're talking to a tourist whose every move's among the purist.
or amongst
This is from the musical Chess that Björn and Benny from ABBA wrote, and - like everything they touch - it was a huge success. It would.
Plus Tim Rice, of course!
grytlappar they were the best song writers ever 😊
The 80 songs 🎵 🎶 were great 👍.
"One town's very like another, with your head down over your pieces, brother!". Obviously Head has travelled and played in tournaments! Love it!
The best version of the song. I've heard other people sing it but none compare with this, the original.
+verkaforever No one competes with Murray Head. He was also the best ever Judas in Jesus Christ Superstar (the original album).
+verkaforever dido
Mike Tyson's cover was pretty funny.
Not even Robey from Friday the 13th show?
He's singing?
Couldn't get this song out of my head when I was in Bangkok for the first time a couple of years ago!
Were you lookin' down at the board, not lookin' at the city?
I heard this song for the first time last year and I honestly thought it was a new release, I had no idea it was such an old song..which only tells me this is a timeless piece.
Ich bin hier! Es ist 30 Oktober 2024. Ich liebe dieses song und die video!💋💋

The absolute Best decade ever, in the history of the world.
christdragon I have to agree with you
Jean D I take it your replying to Christdragons comment
But you say 80's were all synthesizer + Hairspray that isn't true is it examples you had bands + solo artists that were not all synthesizer like: Big Country, The Cure, Suzanne Vega, Billy Idol, U2, Dire Straits, The Police, Iron Maiden, Tracy Chapman, The Bangles, Prince, Bruce Springsteen, etc etc
And as for Hairspray hell some people did and dome people didn't-I also grew up in the 80's and people also sometimes used Hair Gel, Or Mousse, Hair Wax,........or sometimes did nothing to it
The guy from ABBA that wrote this is a musical genius. Always has been.
Wow! I didn't know that! Thank you for the information! It was a great club song for dancing!
One of a kind song by an extremely talented man. Its forever da' Chit
