Skyhooks - Women In Uniform - Countdown - 1978
• Skyhooks - Women In Un...
RIP Shirl. Such a warm and talented man. Never be forgotten
Shirl was a lovely, naturally funny soul with an amazing voice that died tragically too soon.
Bro.
Skyhooks, AC/ DC with Bon Scott and Ted Mulry Gang were rocking Australia in the 70s with these beats.
And he was And Still is a Aussie Rock Star before the TV shows.
RIP Shirl.
Jon & Dolly if you want to see how good of a singer “Shirl” was then you should check out “Shirley Strachan soundcheck - Living In The 70’s (Live 1988). He is so casual, he just walks on stage, hand in pockets and wearing thongs, belts out the song for a soundcheck then casually walks off again. Just a brilliant voice and talent. RIP Shirl the Curl.
Yes, that performance is amazing!
@@MargaretGuppy yes wasn’t it Margaret and just so effortless
Yep...Brilliant raw footage & he kicks it it the d!ck 🎤👍♥️
Thongs, by the way, are Aussie footwear, not underwear, although I wouldn't be surprised if Shirl wore the underwear variety. Check out Shirl's neighbourhood- a kid's tv show from the 80's. Not really for kids, it was for the adults having to suffer through kids shows.
Shirley Graham Strachan killed in a helicopter crash on Mt Archer in Queensland , totally Australian . I was 16 when this was on im now 62
Finally.. Someone's reacting to one of my all time favourite Aussie Hits..
Kudos.
Shirl was later a presenter on a lifestyle programme using his carpentary background in DIY segments, he had a few solo songs too
She is absolutely gorgeous! You're right.
RIP shirl ya deadset legend of epic Aussie culture! Skyhooks has some of the most catchy songs ever!
Any Aussies here remember the old Rock and roll estedford that high schools used to perform in?
My hight school done this song and after the estedford mental as anything played a gig it was fantastic
RIP Greedy 💔
Yeah my school won a few of them. Loved the eistefords! Is yours on youtube?
ours was in the 80's so I don't think so
@@jennifermason9557
Yes, same era. Good times.
A lot of Skyhooks early songs were filled with double entendres and were also Melbourne suburban based. This song is very late in their career after original bassist Red Symons had left the group. Their earlier stage presence and costumes made them stand out from the crowd during Australia’s great Pub Rock scene.
Red was one of the guitarists not bass , he was replaced by Bob Spencer of Finch, the one with the glasses.
Red never played bass
Shirl left Skyhooks not long after this. Then he hosted Shirls Neighbourhood. Then returned to skyhooks in the 80s. He had a few solo hits while also in the band in the 70s
I remember seeing them live and they sung this song as an encore and the song was so loud I couldn’t hear for days. But man what a fantastic concert full of energy
RIP Shirl the curl. We miss you.
Shirl left the Skyhooks in 1978, and started a kid’s show called ‘Shirl’s Neighbourhood’ in 1979. Skyhooks tried another lead singer, but their popularity dwindled and they soon disbanded. Shirl’s tv career also didn’t last long. Skyhooks reformed in 1989, with Shirl back as the lead singer, and released a song called ‘Jukebox in Siberia’. They were huge in Australia in the mid to late seventies, and their biggest hits were: ‘Living in the Seventies’, ‘Horror Movie’ and ‘Ego is not a dirty word’
You must must check out Shirl doing a sound check for Skyhooks performing Living in the 70s…Amazing performance for a sound check.
My Dad went to Uni with them in Melbourne. I used to watch Shirl's Neighbourhood when I was a kid and I remember Claude the Crow making me laugh. RIP Shirl.
Also he was a carpenter before and after Skyhooks fame, did a home improvement/renovation show for a while, killed in a helicopter crash.
Imants "Freddie" Strauks on drums.
Iron Maiden did a cover of this song with their first singer and a music vid along with it. Definitely check it out.
I think it was an early early cover too. I have it on my Visions Of The Beast dvd that goes from then to Brave New World.
Yes I heard that years ago and from memory was a brilliant cover
I never had any idea that was a cover until now.
Great fun Aussie band in the 1970s...Sadly the singer Shirl died tragically while flying his chopper, witnesses claim to have seen him flying the chopper upsidedown shortly before it crashed...R.I.P. Shirl.
About time Skyhooks had some coverage 🥸
Since hearing their track "Horror Movie" on the 1977 "New Wave" compilation album I have been a fan, and managed to get most of their albums from Australia.
I recommend checking out more of their tunes.
Always sang this in Melbourne to the female coppers on traffic/point duty in the CBD. We'd stand on the footpath and sing it to them as they controlled traffic.Some saw it as funny, other's didn't 🤣oh to be 17 again.
Just to let you know... In the original film clip (not this one) It was filmed at around 2 am because that was the only time everyone was available. It was also filmed in one take and the last 7 "Women in Uniform" phrases were sung in ONE breath. We here in Australia miss Shirl😪
They rocked. How about a take on The Angels with “am I ever gonna see your face again”. A live version…. Or the masters apprentices living in a child’s dream
He hosted Shirl's Neighbourhood in the 80's this was long before in the 70's I'm Aussie and old :( I remember. I loved Skyhooks as a young teenager here. lol red Symons is also in Skyhooks, normally wearing all the makeup, he was the cranky judge on Hey Hey It's Saturday in one of the segments on the show, hard to believe Red was wild in his youth, if you don't, know Hey Hey it's Saturday and Red Faces segment from the show, you should check it out as well.
This was from the album "Living in the 70s". About half of the songs from that album were banned on radio.
wasn't on that album.
Guys, you should check out Skyhooks Horror Movie, another of there big hits
If you love this, you'd probably love some of Skyhooks earlier stuff, like Living in the 70's and Ego.
I got Aussie Bands to refer to you no one else can :) I am an Aussie musician.
You guys should look into the back story of the "Wiggles" if you think think Shirl's transition into kids show host was strange
So the thing with Skyhooks, they were really on the way out when this song came out. It was their last hit. It is by far the rockiest thing they ever put out. If you want to see this band in its prime you need to give songs like Ego, Horror Movie, and my personal favorite Baldwin Calling a spin. They have a bunch of other great tracks like 'Smut' which would probably get you banned from UA-cam lol. Strachan left Skyhooks in 78. Did that kids show from the next 4 or 5 years. Then did a lifestyle show in the mid 90s
My favourite band in the 70’s…saw them live twice
Rip shirl
I saw them live over a dozen times, and met freddie and greg on the street in Kalgoorlie when they were touring in the eighties on there Juke box in siberia comeback
Graeme "Shirley" Strachan was lead singer of Aussie band Skyhooks. They were a leading Melbourne band with a unique style which loosely fitted into Glam rock genre. Many of their songs were based around local places and culture. As the 70's ended the bands popularity faded. Shirley had a job on a kids TV show, then on a home renovation program (he was a trade qualified carpenter as well). Shirl was a very personable and friendly guy who was very popular. The band's lead guitar Red Symonds went on to be a successful breakfast radio host. Shirl was killed in a helicopter accident. The bass player Greg Macainsh is a board member of the Australian Performing Rights Association and is an intellectual property lawyer. The entire band was very talented and unique.
One of the alltimers!
Living in the seventies ALBUM,THE BEST,😂😂😂😉⏰
Are God Skyhooks what a great Australian band. They just give everyone the bird and the public love them. Their first Albums Living In The 70's had 6 out of the 10 song band on the radio for sex or drug references. Red Simons can't remember what guitar he played but had a talent segment on TV's show Hay Hay, it's Saturday called Redfaces, where he tried to be the dignified person, all I could remember was he once wrote and sang a song called Smut about masturbating in a picture theatre. All their song would be fine on radio today.
Used to surf with Shirl the curl as we called him down at Phillip Island. A funny dude on and off stage.
Great band and great reaction 👌
3rd year high school when this came out. Wasn't into Skyhooks myself but they had some good songs.
Shirl was a musician and singer of Skyhooks for MANY years before being a TV kids show host...
You guys need to watch the Live in 80's stuff from Skyhooks.
Yep Shirl the curl I was 10 years old then
Million Dollar Riff is a must.
Wonderful band!
jukebox in siberia...one of Skyhooks big songs
Another terrific Australian talent.
Not so strange, some of the members of The Cockroaches left and formed The Wiggles.
A couple of great Skyhooks songs are Million Dollar Riff, This is my City, and Blue Jeans.
Shirl is just super talented , Skyhooks were an awesome Aussie band
RIP Shirl. I use to watch Shirls Neighbourhood. He can definitely sing. 🎉
RIP Shirl, a great Aussie
Shirl the Curl one of the best Hard Rock voices ever Million Dollar Riff is another one to have lidten to
The sample at the beginning is exactly the same sample Kanye uses for his song Jesus Walks.
Ozzy GOLD
Check out 'You Just Like Me Coz Im Good Im Bed'
Smut,is a banger😂😂😂😉⏰
Believe it or not, but Iron Maiden used to play this in the late 70’s. They even made a music video. Check it out!
Great Aussie band! I believe Iron Maiden covered this song too.
I like women in uniform
Hmmm, fictionally, at the end of the Van Halen "Hot For Teacher" video, David Lee Roth went on to be a game show host. 😉
Iron Maiden has a great cover of this song
RIP Shirl. BTW early Iron Maiden did a cover. I prefer the ‘Hooks original
Shirl was a great carpenter.
Shirl was carpenter & John Farnham was a plumber.
Shirly neighbourhood was the show was full time gig
Shirl didnt start his tv career until the eighties after the band retired. But you must check out Million dollar riff by skyhooks its better than Women in Uniform.
And a helicopter pilot
In later years they dressed up and had make up on like kiss did
iron madien covered this song
Back in the day you could of seen these guys and other great bands at your local, pokies "slots" ruined the live music scene
Classic...where was Red, not that I missed him, it was better without him.
The pre-Bruce Dickinson version of Iron Maiden released a version of this song in about 1980. It's nowhere near as good as the original.
