How's you singing going mate how can this video have 2009 but the song was 8 years ago HAHAHA 😕
good song good night Calvin Harris
CalvinHarrisVEVO you are amazing and I love you.
Glad you came back to this video. How could there only be 4 reply?
nice song
Calvin Harris is a great example of just what you lose when you try to please everyone.
I'd say Calvin HArris is...winning.
"I have tiger blood"
He looks younger with that hair
***** Listen to the stuff he made when he was unpopular, listen to the stuff he makes now that he is popular, note the difference. It's not exactly something I have the words to describe, but I'll try; he lost a lot of weirdness, his sound became more flattened out, less specific, not as wacky and funky.
It wasn't meant as a judgement call, I just found it exemplary of a larger parable. In fact I'd say it's exactly the right direction to move in if you want to be pop. If he had stayed in the funkier, wackier zone his only chance at global popularity would be as a Frank Zappa / Rocky Horror kind of cult phenomenon.
I agree, I remember Harris as some indie, funky disco.
I hope he goes back to this, I really think he deserves some fame, so I think its good he's got out some famous singles.
Supposed to be the 80s.
Uploaded in the 2000s.
Watching it in the 20s.
Rediscovered in the 40s, classic of the times past in the 60s. Full circle
Yup
Yes
Lmao same
🤣😍Yeah!
80s and 2000s hit different for me man and this perfectly clashes the two
For me it's 2010s aswell even tho I waz born in early 2000s (in my opinion)

I will always love this song man
YES
shit taste
@@shiro1240 that’s your opinion 😆.
@@shiro1240 why u on the vid then 😂
@@magnusrobertson5312 exactly
I never actually realised this was created by Calvin Harris, would've loved more like this.
this first album is his best work IMO.
@@jaimecamire1088 He's doing rave now. I do like this and Dance Wiv Me, but it's not touching his new stuff.
@@ongbonga9025 Rt on,back to his roots. I like it
Yessss
remember in 2014 calvin was made a summer hit called summer? nowadays they went funk mainstream collab with other artists like 21 savage and sam smith
My opinion, but I think this Calvin would punch the new Calvin square in the face.
The new Calvin would big himself up and get all his Los Angeles mates to watch and this scrawny Scottish dark haired Calvin would just be like bugger off mate and punch him 😂😂
Your Mother Pahahaha you couldn't be further from the truth. I've never listened to Taylor Swift in my life bar when she's on the radio. I'm nowhere near a fan. But who am I a fan off? Calvin Harris. It's just banter mate, love the guy own RFTW & 18M 😂😂
Definetely!
Yes, this cool Calvin Harris DEFINITELY WOULD punch new douchebag Calvin Harris square in the face.
But, if that Calvin Harris would punch the current Calvin Harris it would cause a dent in the space time continuum
Legends listening to this in may 2024
June
For some reason I can't get enough of this song right now.
dont need a reason dude...thats why music's so AWESOME!!!
Happy days are here again!
when is this song was made
Pug the pooh 2009
No, 2007.
just eat a thousand pies
What barrrrrr is he?!
who knew that this style of music would be on the rise now? The guy was ahead of his time
Lmao this was very on point music of the time....
Sure it's coming back but it's already been.
This was very VERY 2007 lol I can't wait for this style of music to come back
mhmmm
Yeah even I made a track in 2006/7 called Ladies of The Eighties. I think we were a whole generation that grew up on Vice City (2002)
Ahead of his time sounds like an overstatement i'm sure the mid 2000s had some sort of synthpop influenced tunes.
As a teen of the 80’s,I can say this tune would have been acceptable.
Thank you Northern Boys
I bet you the VAST majority of people who know Calvin Harris now don’t know this Calvin Harris. The guy who used to be kind of a nerd with the dark dyed hair making beats from video game sounds.
True. His music has changed a lot from 2007 to 2017.
@@aurvaroy6670 I think the fact he produced about 100 hits in a 10 year period went to his head. Why, is he a dick now? His music is very generic but *very* catchy more lately.
Takes one to know one eh Johan?
Compared to the emotional bollocks he makes now. This is such a banger I can't believe this is made by the same guy who made Giant
When he had his own sound
The best
Love that bass synth's envelope.
It's super acidy!
Harris made this entire album on an Amiga...a fucking Amiga! lol. I'm sure they tossed the raw tracks into a DAW and mastered them, but still, it's impressive that he did this on 30-year-old hardware.
+GozerTheGozerian
Is that amiga story real ?
Yessir. I was surprised when I read that too. Although now there are some really great VST plugins that model the audio chipsets of old systems like Amiga, Commodore 64, NES, etc.
GozerTheGozerian
That's some cool story... Just read that after some googling :
"I Created Disco - a Top Ten album in 2007 - wasall made on the Amiga?
"Why not? The Amiga did a great job! Even after things started to take off, I did my best to carry on working with it. We were a team! Sadly, I realised it was probably time to give the studio a bit of a spruce-up. The Amiga - God bless it! - was put on the shelf, replaced by Logic with all the bells and whistles, and a Mac."
blessed by alfred christ
Alfred alfer yay
OSW
Yes
Maybe one day the true Calvin Harris will return
Doubt it
+Ingenious Jay too much money in the radio trash business.
I remember jamming his music when nobody knew who it was, they were wtf is that shit
+inferno too much money selling out lol
Same.
I miss the Calvin Harris who was not afraid to take the piss.
Yes very cookie cutter now
Lochlan Hughes everything that comes out of that guy is a hit
Lochlan Hughes my respect
What you sayin ? His new music is so much better fr you heard his funk album or something from 2017 every song from that is amazing 💯
@@Manuel-nq2ww all his music is good with a few exceptions (one kiss, feels, promises)
*A L F R E D*
*A L F E R*
SMITE!
He was ahead of his time
i miss this calvin!
no one misses me :'(
I've always missed you Dan ;c
Eylar Ward..... so does Taylor
hahahaha
El Ward he's back
This song randomly popped into my head today 😂😂
Too
I know right
Yooo same
I assume, you were born in the 80s too?
Same
The only accecptable Calvin Harris.
Nothing is acceptable now
edge
if you brave enough, everything is
Symbolic HD sexist
William Brannan What?
you said nothing is acceptable so that must not be acceptable hence sexism
His newer stuff can’t be compared to this album and ready for the weekend. Back then it felt like he was doing music for enjoyment.
This song is cringey.. besides what's wrong with songs like summer under control outside ,my way etc? It's pathetic how people try so hard to be different.
@@Victor_386 Did I say something was wrong with those songs? No. I didn’t even mention them, yet you’ve managed to take it that personally 🤣
Dude sounded original, now he sounds generic. Simple as that.
Generic sells, sure. But you could tell it was Calvin 10+ years ago. Now his music could be made/produced by an 18 year old kid or even AI, and you wouldn’t hear a difference.
But hey, I guess I’m just desperate to be a hipster in your opinion 🤣
@@Victor_386 and given the amount of comments agreeing with my sentiment. It’s clear your just someone who’s desperate to fit-in, and hates it when someone/something is successful for going against the norm 😂
“I miss the days when edm was mainstream” - Dude who probably thinks Calvin, SHM, and David Guetta are the godfathers of edm 🥴😂
It’s okay to admit that you only like Fifa music bro. We won’t judge too much 💀
@@tstret3104 I'm not the pretentious music snob who throws shade on mainstream music to appear different.. it's pitiful tbh ..hey look at me I listen to "real music".
@@Victor_386 Where did I say I hate Calvin’s newer stuff? I’m keen to know 🤣
Acting like I go home and jam out to Beethoven or something.
It’s just clear your extra defensive over music which is deemed to be “mainstream” 😂
Like damn, I like Coldplay, who are the definition of mainstream pop-rock 😂 but it’s not pretentious of me to say that their earlier work is a lot better than the stuff they made for radio plays.
Literally everything your mad about comes down to the fact that you can’t comprehend why something is/or becomes “mainstream” 🤡
It’s not everyone else’s fault that you can’t understand why people criticise pop music.
I can’t wait to listen to this on
1 January 2080
Yep when the 80s comes back again
😂 I guess I could sing it on behalf of my great grandmother she was born in 1889😂
I'll be 114.....

@@cherrygoblin6697 ha
everything was acceptable in the 80s
except being scottish, that will never be acceptable

Alright lads calm down
Loved this track 😍😍 was even my ringtone in 2007🙈
Wow og fan
I didn't know Calvin used to make such songs, just realised how old this video is lol, these songs are so underrated.
For some reason, I prefer the look of this Harris than now.
+MrRedlear Same!
SAME
Don’t lie this song wasn’t in your recommended videos, you searched this...
Hell yea i did
Yeah, I did at first. But then I put it on my playlist so I don't have to anymore.
This just randomly started playing after other music i was listening to like stardust
no it wasnt i found it
👍🏻
Oh man this song, the nostalgia, I miss the 2000s when only me and the Brits knew about Calvin Harris...proud to be born in the early 80s ^^
Desde Chile también conocía a Calvin Harris.
I actually miss the 80’s for real, was born in the 70’s but who’s counting? Miss vinyl, mix tapes, VHS, shoulder pads, Atari, back seats with no seatbelts and the best music 💀
No anti-social media, everything analogue…and no smart phones!
Saw Calvin Harris support Faithless in 2007 in Manchester and no clue who he was was. Watched him a few weeks at the Academy 3, probably 3/400 people? Was immense. Mad to see how massive he is now. Always prefered his older stuff!
When Calvin was acceptable
Still is acceptable :'v
Amzi Maldonado Chavez Nope
Calvin still makes decent music, but this old Calvin Harris was much better.
In the 80s
😎👌
it was acceptable in the 80s, but it was running in the 90s
Oof
I unironically listen to Eurobeat and Running in the 90's is just so incredibly bad. Even Deja vu is better to be completely honest.
Initial D had embarrassingly bad music. It's probably what gave it its lasting appeal.
thatjacktansley It's terrible but I love it anyway. I have 2 2-hour long mixes on my phone and 26 other tracks as well.
NANIII??
*The dislikes are from the people who weren’t born in the 80s*
So from me and you and from 80% the people who watched this Video?
Yeah, and I don't have love for them.
YO WHY IS THIS SONG ACTUALLY GOOD
remember this from just dance:)
Lol yah that's why came to this song😂😂
+gamersruletheworld me 2
Same buy that choreo is way better

Mariana Quinntana haha yeah
The real Calvin Harris only the uk and Ireland know about 😂😂
Adam Brown I thought he was Scottish?
@@scomo7yearsago958 yes Scotland is in the UK
Fionn Regan mmm I realised but thanks
I'm Swiss and I've been pumpin' this song since its release, dear sir!
Never thought he would make it so big!lol
This version of Calvin Harris was so good!
every version is good this is just great
The perfect mix of 80s, 90s and 2000s in just one song
I DID NOT KNOW THIS WAS BY CALVIN, MY WHOLE LIFE HAS BEEN A LIE
the truth shall set you free
Ale Rdz A HUGE IDEM
yeah i fount this out when i was this year old
what happened to Calvin ?
This song still have the same pop formula that stays true right until now.
Just look at the fucking lyrics if you cant even tell from the beat & melody alone.
If you want to say "what happened to "this edm dj" after being famous", you should say that to Zedd.
Zedd went full pop after Clarity happens, he was a pure EDM dj back then.
thats because your about 15
Oh so this is that background song what is played in literally every tv program.
I hated that beat...its annoying 😧
Everything played repeatedly is annoying 😂
I bet it was acceptable in the 80s.
I’ve only heard it in inbetweeners😤
@@michaelvazquez3801 Lmao same
Still one of my favourite songs, ever since it first came out
Lmao this appeared in my recommended, I'm happy to review this song :3
still an absolute banger
Obviously some new definition of the word 'banger' that I wasnt previously aware of...
... this beat wouldn't 'bang' if you shot it full of viagra and tossed a hand grenade on it.
Some of the good old calvin
This tune just gets better and better and better......
Jestem pod wrażeniem jaką drogę z muzyką przeszedł Calvin Harris od 2009 do ok. 2015. Ten zakres czasu był dla mnie super. Cieszę się, że mogłem słuchać takiej i lepszej muzyki od C.H. Pozdrowienia dla wykonawcy i oby pamiętał że dobra muzyka nie umiera!
I'm not kidding, i've never heard of this & youtube just recommended me it.
one of the best attempts, at least that i have heard at replicating 80's synth
It IS an 80s synth. He did this entire album on an Amiga, which is an 8-bit computer from 30 years ago. Although you can replicate this sound with VSTs, which is how I like to do it, but some people like messing with old hardware.
GozerTheGozerian the Amiga was a 16 bit computer had an 8 bit sound chip. it brought mass sampling to the industry. I still use mine and its the best computer on this planet
It's not hard, 80s synths are preset sounds on most synthesizers
This song does a good job of replicating the amazing sound of the 80's, reminds me of the buggles a little bit.
Really I thought it sounded more like 90s
Perfect theme for OSW podcast.
Love listening to/watching OSW on here :D epic. Attitude Era Podcast is also fun.
Thumbs up if you find this ACCEPTABLE IN 2024
I will always remember this Calvin Harris. I was at college when this came out. Also loved his song with dizzie rascal - come dance with me
Quirky Calvin > Swag Calvin
Happy daaaays are here agaaaain!

shut up
Steve! What bar is Calvin Harris?
Oh, I would have to say a Fry's Turkish Delight 🤣
You ever just- love a song so much in the original Just dance that you wanna see the music video?
I didn't realise Calvin Harris made any of these songs!! Just shows how much his music has changed in 4-5 years :/
I only found out today that he made this!
true
No I kinda agree with you on that
7 years
***** Yea MUCH better
Every time I hear a new Calvin Harris song, I think back to this masterpiece and think "why isn't there more of that today?". Radio stations should put flashback songs like this on the radio and cut back on playing the same 5 songs all week. If I turned on the radio and this came on, I would stick with that channel a bit longer! If I hear All about that bass for the 3rd time that day, Im going to switch channels! Why doesn't Australian radio understand that?
I WISH I HAD THAT!
therewasanellie
It is a chanel that does that, they mix old and new ones. Here is a link (may not work) radio.nrk.no/direkte/mp3
I am glad my Go-To Radio Station has this thing where they have like an hour of Old School, Athems, stiff like that! ^w^ But i wish it was a bit longer thing sometimes! (It's Kisstory btw X3)
therewasanellie madeon
They won't do it for some reason. They stick with lame music.
When you find this album in 2018 and it's one of your favorites, then realize it's THIS Calvin Harris. Yum. I love this album, the 80's and all you do, Calvin. :)
His old songs were epic :C
It's funny how new fans of Calvin Harris say he looks doofy, scrawny, and nerdy at this time period. I had a crush on him when he looked like this. O///O
Lol same
Same though. I miss the old Calvin to be honest.
+Ingenious Jay Yes, his look, the music, the awesome video's... He was a very nice musician back in the days, but now he isn't special anymore. I mean his music nowadays is kind of boring tbh...
Eva Flipkens It's the same as any other artist now. He definitely lost his uniqueness.
Lol
His best album.
He's just a friend, i knew from when i was doing trials at west ham
OSW REVIEWS! HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN!
This song is still lit lol
It sure is
It still is
In all my life I thought this was a MGMT song, I would never think that this guy is the same DJ with generic EDM songs. Funny lol
Sounds nothing like MGMT
@@MuseOSRS sounds 100% like early MGMT that could be easily confused with their early EPs. I also used to think it was a song from MGMT (before Congratulations) and that it was some song from the Time to Pretend EP that sounded like Andrew with a Mika-like voice changer like all 00s pop bands used to use, but I guess I couldn't check at that time with me having nearly no access to the internet.
Yeah sounds like older songs of theirs
this song just reminds me of british tv
This brought back memories. I was a nerdy girl in high school when I first got this album. I still have that iPod Classic lying somewhere in my drawer. This album should still be in the Favorites.
FYI, I was in Beijing, China. I felt special every time I heard this song. TEN YEARS later my 11 months old son is dancing this in New Jersey, USA. WOW.
My favorite CH track, no contest. I really wish he didn't have to change his sound to make it as big as he has, but I'll just cherish the gems he had in his earlier days.
Listen to his love regenerator stuff.
OSW!
To be honest I like this better than his newer stuff
If only I had been born 5 months earlier... now I get no hugs and no love from Calvin :P
shut the fuck up
+Josh Shuter why are you being rude?....

Blake D Lol it's ok man, I just laugh when I see this "stfu" kind of comment for no reason!
I love this but I realized it's classic rock now.
This is cool. Can't get enough of it.
This is synonymous with OSW for me at this point
same
Was amazing when they recorded them saying nineties and dubbed it over 80s. Osw reviews are legendary!
He has changed...alot

He’s really a legend 🥺🥰 2021, anyone?

Pareil
Man I miss the old Calvin before he went Hollywood and got a personal trainer. And I heard he disavowed this era which makes me really sad
Why did he disavow it I wonder? His more recent music isn't bad, but I find this a lot more interesting and unique.
He did? It's the only thing he's done that isn't generic crap
@@DIANAROSS4EVER I agree man
@@walkermorgan1710 Nice job not responding to my comment...
@@ob902 oh I’m not sure I think he just thinks it’s “bad” or something and likes the more “professional” and sleek style of his music now idk
This song makes me want to become a magician
This song is so catchy
*This is the best song Calvin Harris has ever made better than 'one kiss'*
"One kiss" is a generic, dull, boring piece of shit that sounds like a robot sings it.
One Kiss sounds like a song for a fashion show😂 I prefer Summer, Outside, and My Way
Anything is better than 'One Kiss' that song is trash
@@wellhelltherefellwhuman4637 Agreed 👌
You can thank Bowie for this Harris song.
