I remember so well sitting in front of the TV in 1981 at the age of 11, watching Eurovision and hoping so much for this song to win. I loved it so much and still love it today. - Best regards from Germany! ❤
@@edwardpootchemunka8027 Yes, I wish that too. Definitely the best time ever to be young. A time when everything was just normal - unlike today... Greetings
We only have memories of our youth. And great ones. Not like today. They have reminders. Record everything they do. Good job cameras weren't a thing and we growing up. The absolute mad stuff we got up to. How are we still alive 😂😂 born 1970. 🇮🇪
Es ist egal wie alt dieses Lied auch sein mag, es wird niemals alt, der Mode kommen und es wird niemals sterben! Auch wenn der Name dieser Band irgendwann einmal vergessen sein wird und man sich kaum daran erinnern möge, wer es gesungen hat, es wird auch noch lange erklingen, wenn wir alle längst Vergangenheit sind!
God I remember hearing this in the background, on the radio, in Primary school. Sigh ... miss my teachers, wish I'd been more appreciative and let them know what they meant to me. Feel so f-cking grateful to have been born and raised in '80s England. Loved the times, the people and the experience. Very sad to watch the changes, over these past 3 decades, that have overtaken England.
Many people don't realise that at this time Top Of The Pops had paid dancers and models in the front of the audience. If you watch videos from 1982 you see the same faces and legs time after time.
I don’t like the haircut of men at that time. I didn’t like it at that time. I was around 15 and blond, but sure didn’ t have half long golden locks like these guys have😂. Still it is fun to see, typical for the end of the seventies and beginning of the eighties.
This song started playing while I was walking through Coles the other day.. took all my strength to not start busting a move up and down the aisles! Love this song! So many happy childhood memories 💛
Pop star Olly Alexander will represent the United Kingdom at next year's Eurovision Song Contest in Sweden. In a press release, he said, : "I really can't believe I'm going to be a part of such a special legacy and fly the flag for the UK in the gayest way possible."
the great thing about this is,,, that they nailed the choreography,, even though its simple,,, they're singing their lungs out on stage, but the moves are perfect, not one of them messes up,,,,, 10/10 BucksFizz
I'm from the states and this is my first time to see and hear this group. Love it! These were such fun times on both sides of the pond! 😁 How were they not famous everywhere?!!
@@shirleybooth2824 I was at the University of Exeter at the time. I still have the single that I purchased and brought back home to the States with me. Great era. Need to get back over.
Brilliant song that still sounds just as exciting as the first time I heard it all those years ago; simple songs are always the best and the most powerful, and the skirt ripping was a good idea; great music and lyrics that are so good it makes you want to sing along, and it makes you feel so good doing it!
This song always reminds me of England beating Australia in the 1981 Ashes series. Ian Botham and Bob Willis were unbelievable that year, and broke the hearts of a lot of Aussies, including mine.
Got to admit this song has certainly stood the test of time, sounds even better after all these years Still playing this song in 2020, who else is listening?
@@mcfcguvnors I remember when this was chosen as the Eurovision entry and I was thinking how silly it was; took my beloved guitar teacher to point out to me that it kind of sounds like Fleetwood Mac, my favourite band :)
people need to stop looking at the past thru rose tinted glases. crime was worse.... children were less safe. it was far worse for women gays blacks .... healthcare was worse.... we died over a decade earlier than we do now ..... but all thats worth it cos like now.... they also had good music??? stfu you simpleton
😂 Still can’t believe that today at 53 years old I have come full circle back to the song that was my go to pick up. Feel good song on those down days. And the moves ! 😂 So ahead of their time with those moves ❤
Why songs like this are so popular can be seen when in the numerous quiz shows on TV a question on 70s or 80s Eurovision is answered in a split second. Yet when any modern stuff is in a question you often sees younger quizzes look blank. Bucks Fizz were an example of a group that made happy music and probably little money. Even though the group members always appeared to have their heads screwed on, record companies seemed to rule the roost until the Spice Girls emerged fifteen years later. Society would probably more happier if music like this was regularly recorded.
Brilliant always makes me wanna get up & dance to this, why don't they make great songs like this anymore, even my kids said they wished they'd grown up in the past as the music was so good
This song changed my life forever! When I was in high school, I was depressed and when I heard this song, it made me become really optimistic, until this day!
I was living overseas in the UK when I listened the Eurovision song festival on tv for the first time & heard this song. Thought it was kind of catchy & the singers were an attractive lot. A neat contest considering the variety of songs from each of the European countries.
The production the engineering definetly the musicians are first class . Im a weekend warrior drummer i just do it for fun . You could easily dismiss the drums here as just a basic shuffle on the snear but just try and hold that beat in time perfectly without aid or especially a metronome. Its a great sound and a toe tapper i love it ❤
I was too young to remember Cheryl Baker as part of Buck’s Fizz, but just the right age to remember her presenting Record Breakers. Discovering her musical roots, and especially the tear away skirts, was a strange and wonderful revelation!
This is what it is all about ain't it. Pure talent not jacked up by electronic distortion. This was a time when music was music and not just crappy noise.
I was born the year this happened and I am American so never heard of this group/song. However UA-cam recommended it and still does and everytime I see it I watch it. I really like this. Lol
C'est mon groupe préféré depuis 1981 et je savais que le groupe allait remporter l'Eurovision 😘 ! Gros bisous à tous les quatre 💋 et je les aime toujours ♥️💙♥️💙.
I remember the eurovision song contest in 1981 and it was dead cert in my eyes that they would win, Still going strong, wish they could do more shows in The HTV region, love to see them live
Good song, well performed. I played and sang this song in a band in Dublin around 1980, and I remember trying to get the drumer to do the shuffle at the start. He couldn't make his mind up, but we eventualy got it right.
If this wasn't in my feed i wouldn't have thought of this song in a million years. Haven't heard it since late 70s i think. I was a 6yr child or so. I remember the tune very well tho.

Cheryl was always my favorite. There was just something about her I absolutely loved. I was 14 when they won the Eurovision Contest, and immediately liked them.
Iirc, they were a conscious attempt at creating a "British ABBA", no? I think I recall the skirt reveal, and watching Cheryl more closely. As an 8yr old, I had rather refined tastes!
So lovely listening to this in 2024 at 73 years of age, I really don't know where all those years came from, what did I do the last 30-40 years? I think I am now back on track listening to this amazing song!
