      It was their last major hit, they put out some more singles before splitting in the 80's which didn't do very well. A pity, they were one of the UK's best bands in the 70's.

    This song takes me back to my night clubbing days of the early '80's in Zimbabwe. There was a local band, 'Heritage', that used to play this at a night club in called Odettes. I knew the guys in the band and we'd sit listening to the music till the early hours. Good memories!

      I agree, but I wonder what happened in this story. Did the narrator make it out of those encounters fairly in tact? For the "I don't like I love it", was that the narrator's thoughts or was that him talking the others down? True, it seems he physically made it out, as he got to the pool in the end. But then... I wonder what happened at the end of the last verse, if he did, indeed, try that harvest. It's interesting how this song seems to describe the danger of the place, I don't quite understand the choruses.

    I'm a 65 year old American veteran, I just vaguely remembered hearing this song ages ago. My father was in the USAF and we had been living in Puerto Rico which happened to be where my mother was from. She came down with cancer in 1977 and we returned to the States the next year. After seven years living in Puerto Rico I had missed. most of the music and big cultural events of a whole decade...1971 to 1978. I had been able to hear a handful of the bigger hits over that time but there was a whole lot of music I simply had never heard of or the bands and singers that had slipped past me...this happened to be one of them. I caught it once or twice on an oldies channel during the 80s and 90s. Interestingly I had joined the army in 1981 and after basic training I was stationed in fort Sill Oklahoma. I was lucky enough to catch the first day of MTV, not long after that I saw this video. It would be years again before I saw it again on UA-cam. It's one of those odd tunes that just sort of sticks with you, not a great song but humorous enough to never quite be forgotten.

      Yeah I know, hilarious...seeing the stones, the dull arse English sky and those cliffs...I don’t know how they thought they could convince people it was Jamaica 🤣 The pool scene was probably some resort nearby...slightly more passable. When he’s strutting at the beginning, they did a better job of making it look tropical but again it was probably somewhere down in Dorset . If they’d actually gone to Jamaica or the West Indies, they’d have single-handedly kicked off the MTV explosion...

    When I was very young I heard this so many times. Like all great songs it had its time and disappeared off the air. I forgot who made this song and what it was called. It vanished and became a buried forgotten song. Time passed and all I could distinctively remember of it were the deep male voices "He looked me up and down a bit/I like it I want it" and that was the part that stuck in my head the most about it. Then when I finally found it after nearly 40 years it was so refreshing to hear it properly again from start to finish. Your memory keeps it dormant and needs a little jog to remember what the rest sounded like but it all comes back and you never forget it.
