      That's the way it is with me too on many of his vids. I always focused on the tune first. The message was secondary so I missed the meaning in many of them. Sad Eyes, for example by Robert John. Great tune. The message is telling a woman he's cheating with to wipe her eyes and split because his wife is coming back home.

    The Human League were one of the pioneers of electronic pop in the UK and were initially totally synthetic. Original keyboardist/writer Martyn Ware passed up the chance of buying a car to purchase his first polyphonic synthesizer, for instance. But they always wanted to be a pop group first and foremost (one of their seminal influences being Donna Summer's iconic disco hit, 'I Feel Love').

    Human League's Human - as well as New Edition's Can You Stand The Rain Album - are among the first productions of Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis (who also produced 5 of Janet Jackson's best albums. Bobby Brown, and many others during that time). They were also members of the group The Time, a creation of Prince. Their influence, along with Prince's, illustrates how dominant the Minneapolis Sound was during the 80s and 90s.

    I saw the Human League live when they were on tour for this album. I was so impressed that lead singer Phil Oakey's makeup was more on-point than the ladies. Fun show. And I remember that they just *killed* this song live. 👍🏼(Translation: killed = were great)

    Wow!!! Ok, I couldn't wait to see this, cause I've LOVED this song since I was 16, but... AMAZING reaction!!! The indignation with his excuses, "but I'm still gonna dance!" 🤣 and waiting for the other shoe to drop... he almost fell out of his chair!!! 5 stars-- will like, share, and HIGHLY recommend this reaction! Outstanding!!! 🤣🤣🤣

    Hey man, how you doing? Great reaction! Didn't know this song but now i'm love with it. I was just watching some old videos, like the ones about Foreigner, Pink Floyd and Bob Seger, legendary reactions, it was like i could feel you, Amazing. I also watched the video about the bands you cannot react to and The Eagles was one of them. Such a shame, because they are a great band, with great musics like Lyin' Eyes, New Kid in Town, Best of my Love, Take it Easy, Peaceful Easy Feeling, Tequila Sunrise, Take it to the Limit, Desperado, and of course Hotel California. But anyway man, just keep doing your job, grretings from Brazil. All the best.

    The thing about this song is he was married to his high school for about 2 years then he had an on and off fling with the dark haired girl in the group. They still remain friends to this day along with being in the group also.

    This song sounds like other Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis hits, all of which are sung and played in A flat Major.

    OH SHIT!! I just realized that the instrumental sounds a LOT like The Force M.D.'s (r&b group) song Love is a house. That's crazy. Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis wrote & produced both of these songs.
