The youth of yesterday, were talented.
Had no mobile phones. No TikTok. No grime. Just music to our ears.
Nostalgic ❤reminds me of my teenage years awww 80s babies watching this in June, 2024
Reminds me of my growing up days. 80s surly rock. I still play this songs till date
ooh oooh seven!. rudeboy no fear! 🔥 🔥 reppin Kenya 🇰🇪.. reggae to the world
Aw the drummer has passed away today RIP 🙏. Brings back nice mems of my youth this band
Right on Musical Youth what a great old school reggae group and Pass the Dutchie inspired me in 82. RIP, Brother Pat Waite
Probably the most1980's looking video I've ever seen. Awesome song and awesome group too. They had lots of good material.
Musical youth and Michael Jackson is my best artist I ever love in this my life time
They did Desmond Dekker proud ❤
Oh, you speak for him do you?
Such a great song and good to seeThese Guys again !
Much Iove for musical youth
They say that youth is wasted on the young, but dem youths shurely made the most of it!
Bassplayer Patrick died at the age of 24 'cause of heart failure, while having a criminal record and being addicted to drugs. Drummer Junior is an institution nowadays suffering mental problems. Singer Kelvin suffered major mental problems too. Patrick's criminal record and drug addiction as well as Junior's and Kelvin's mental problems were caused by the immense pressure that was on them during Musical Youth's succesful period and by the problems they faced after the success vanished relatively quick. Plus they got engaged in a financial dispute over the royalties of their biggest selling hit 'Pass the dutchie' (see www.theguardian.com/music/2012/mar/23/musical-youth-legal-battle-pass-the-dutchie). Not sure if you can call that 'making the most of it'...
They achieved more than you . Young people in the limelight often end up with problems like these. Have compassion.
Good old days. I love this band. They were so good Together.
The Reggae/British Jackson 5 😎🎶🤘🏾
Still my favorite band with two bassists.
Well done guys thanks
❤ TIMELESS Magic 😂
Great version. Musical youth were great back then. Looking back now, I never realised the singer was a full grown bloke and the guitarist and the keyboard player were about 7 years old!
kelvin was 12! :)
MadMaikRC Yeah well he looked about 7!
Ase o Ase Brother Dennis Seaton and Brothers Mike and Kelvin Grant.
RIP 🙏 Patrick and Jr Waite brothers

This guys were part of my childhood.
Hi
Cool jam
Jamaica
I can never tell if the little guitar player has a hat on, or if its just his hair.
Alex Weldon I think it was attached to his head. You never saw him not wearing it back then.
nice...
Good sounds but everything I seem to see appears mimed, would love more background info on the musicians.
The white people are like whats this!

Milli vanilli ❤
The last top forty hit they did.
Here in The Netherlands it didn't even chart... :( Unfortunately. I think it's one of their best songs and I never understood why it didn't get through here.
Musical Youth hit the big time in 82 because when I came from 🇬🇭that’s when they had their Number 1 Pass the Dutchie.
HAHAHA, THEY'RE NOT REALLY PLAYING
Look at those lizard people just sitting there not moving a single muscle .
poum !!!
Can't believe I actually thought they played the.instruments. just looks weird now.
why did they have 2 split up they were the best off the 80's
GCSEs,
They were abused financially by their "management"..
Nota 10
How come dem not dance??
tune
What makes you say they can't play instruments
I know! Just pulling your leg! But actually wireless technology was already in! And this wasn't Top of The Pops either, it must have been a German show "Musik Laden"?! I like the rude girls' dancing outfits. My wife was the first aerobics teacher in Lisbon, Portugal at that time and I used to do her classes but I was right at the back. Smart! Smart a#se, I could watch all the fat ladies, LOL. Where are thee boys now? Bless 'em! signed:Rude Castro
Bass player Patrick Waite died in 1993 at the age of 24, drummer Junior Waite is in an institution suffering from mental problems, singer/guitar player Kelvin Grant had mental problems too but is back on track and tries to build up a solo career, and keyboard player Michael Grant and singer Dennis Seaton reformed and perform as Musical Youth again (mainly in the United Kingdom) with new material as well as their old songs from the 80s.
Thanks, I own iPirateRecords @@Marcelleke
Nope, in the Eighties groups never sung live on Top of the Pops or similar shows, it was very well known.
dat vindt ik leuk
the lovely ladies in the background are so out of place..HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

They could’ve become another jaxon5
i was in prison with the little guy who is singing. when he came in he was a mess, he was a junkie. he was in for robbing cars , he said they done it for fun, drive to another town and leave there own car there and steal a car and drive back. they had so much money and fame at a young age that it done there heads in, its said. There records never get old to me and it marks a real happy time in my life. SO ONE SHOT MUSICAL YOUTH, BIG UP .
I Despute the 'they had so much money'
No these kids were loaded but didn't know how to use money
This video seems to be a troll magnet.
rude bwoyz :)

lol look at the stiff conservative audience!!!!
What has James Bond got to do with it?
+Jeff Costello It's a reworking of a song by Desmond Dekker called 007
Sharp dressed like 007 and Oceans 11.
No groups at that time sang live, so no need for a mic.
You've mo idea what you're talking about
80s and lip syncing. I heard the good ol' Queen had to take a personal trip to jamica to stop these kids from singing - true?
