What blows my mind is that the B-52s were already 'old' when this album came out. They were so F-ing good. They were like the coolest people no matter what generation you were from. They just maintained soooo long, as if their core beings were just 'Cool', forever and always. Love them to bits!
they are cool 24-7
Man, IDK. I respect their place in history but I don't think they'd be considered cool by modern standards, nor by people prior to the 80's, and probably by significant portions of the 80's audience as well if we're being honest.
The redhead was dummy hot af though.
Im 63 and grew up in 60s and 70s, and loved the B52s as did a lot of people i knew at the time and that was the 80s .
They were different with they're own unique style ! With all the shit about nowadays, im sure they would be appreciated .
Im quite certain there are a lot of youngsters who grew up listening to there parents music , have taken them to they're musical hearts. Tho i do respect your comments .
Yeah, I remember they were my cousin's friend's favorite group already in the early 1980s, this song was 1992?
@@hansolo631 irony of saying some one wasnt cool but using the word dummy to describe someone.. go drink another monster energy drink haha
I just realized B-52’s “Roam” is literally a perfect response/sibling to R.E.M. “Stand”. Even the video. Lyrics. Theme. Vibe. Positive yet yearning warmth. The humanity.
They are actually from the same city of Athens, GA
@@turvus2 Well yeah, I figured that was a given. They were good friends.
Another amazing fact is both songs are in the key of E
They worked together. Stipe and the redhead sang Shiny Happy People. There's footage of them performing it On SNL here on UA-cam
@@stevencoardvenice i am well aware of this, it’s literally why I commented but thanks internet music dude who loves to lecture
A unique, original, unclassifiable band with an incredible, delirious and surreal sense of humor. The combination of Kate and Cindy's voices is fantastic.
The guitar riff sounds like W.A.S.P.'s "Wild Child".
Unique and original, but not as much of an art piece in this case and the way the art was made is just a little more abstract than I would like 👍
Chorus is catchy, but the rest isn't that great. Pretty sure you can classify this as soft rock or something similar. Nothing spectacular if you ask me lol.
even typing how nesto is 'wrong' is a microcosm into how the internet allows everyone to have an opinion, therefore opinions don't matter anymore. no one had a gun to your head asking for your negative opinion, yet here we are, YOU taking a dump on someone's innocent comment so you can feel five more seconds of internet validation. well done!
We all percibe music in a different way. My father liked Julio Iglesias and Ray Conniff.
And what's the problem?
B'52 can be a "Art Pop" or "Soft Pop" band. Some Will like it and some won't. Like mobuck555 says, we all have an opinion.
60 years old and I love the B-52's!!!!!
67 and still love the band!!
42 amo mesmo sem entender nada de inglês 🤘🏼
66
24 years old and this thing bangs🔥
Yes, I'm 70
One of the most unique bands of all time. It's hard to put them in a single genre. They're one of a kind and will never be matched
Yes official
They still got the pipes. SF Masonic couple weeks ago👍👏
Too bad they were practically a one hit wonder
no
@@RobertDickens2002 not even close
It's amazing how 2 women's voices intertwine with each others vocals so perfectly.
They have very similar ways of singing but they're different it's weird but it works so well.
I love the originality of the B52's no one is like them. They seem to genuinely love making music together & having a great time. It shines through on their songs. I've just watch a mini documentary with them. It confirmed my perceptions of them. Lots of smiles & laughing. The obvious take away is, they've been together forever that takes a lot of chemistry as a band.
Nailed it. Huge fan for years but, over the last few months (gearing up for a family loss), The B-52s have been a form of therapy for me. Haven't listened to anything else in months. So grateful to them.
As a kid in the 80's the lyrics went completely way over my head, but as an adult now, every song (and I mean every song) is sexual innuendo. The exception at the time I think was the music video for the song Good Stuff ... left little doubt in my mind what that was about!
They can both sing their sweet asses off
And they were already great friends when they started the band. Love and fun instead of competing egos.
isso que preciso pra dormir
Kate and Cindy were born to sing together. Outstanding harmony!
I've always thought so. Their voices blend and complement each other so beautifully! I love it
Top Tier...
I was just thinking the very same thing this week 😃
Fred & Kate have been with the 52s longest=48 years as of 2024!
They give me chills every time I hear it. Awesome!
Kate sings with such conviction! It's mesmerizing.
Cindy too!
Such a strange thing to say about a song about anal sex.
@@anaryl is not that song "Love shack" ?
@@julioalejandro7837 No, it's Roam It's about going "everywhere" on a woman's body. Love shack is I dunno - I heard they made it up on the spot.
I assure you sir, if you listen to the lyrics it's quite apparent and will send you down a rabbit hole of relistening to classic songs only to learn that many, far too many of them are about ...ahem ... t3h buttsecks. Worse, you can trace the evolution of such innuendo and double entendres (or often just single entendres) throughout the musical decades to the present.
Not ruined enough yet for you? Good.
Listen to the lyrics. "Oh girl dancing down those dirty and dusty trails
Take it hip to hip, rocket through the wilderness"
Dirty and dustry trails? This is a common euphemism amongst women for yknow.
"Skip the airstrip to the sunset, yeah
Ride the arrow to the target, one"
I mean cmon.
Not to mention "Take it hip to hip, rocking through the *wilderness*" Usually followed by some rising screech from Kate or Cindy. This is all highly indicative of certain female reactions during the act of sodomy.
Also if you look at the clip there's plenty of imagery with the bananas and donuts that further more contextually provides evidence for this hypothesis. So yknow
All of your favourite artists have been ploughing each other in the butt this whole time. All those crossovers/covers - just cover for rampant, nostalgia destroying sodomy.
I love how Fred doesn't sing a note in this song and yet he's the hammiest performer in the video. Love that guy.
80s gays 🤷♂️💅🕺
Well, you know... it's FRED.
0:38 agreed
@@KrashyKharma
Hey, man! Cindy's not gay!
@@joelspringman7748 he...said fred
@1:48 The resonance in their Harmony just really kicks it up. How I wish there were more songs like these with Kate and Cindy.
Same here, after all these years I'm really
appreciating these gorgeous girls voices,
So uniquely wonderful!
00:49 As well ❤
Just the fact they can bring that 60's vibe and sound through the 80's and 90's was just so awesome. So many songs just remind me of the late 80's and 90's but this and Love Shack just bring me back in an instant.
Private Idaho!!
Dirty back road 😊
Dirty back road 😊
I am 68 and love them, going travelling this year.
Got to get of this island Ireland never stops fuckin raining.
I miss sunny countries and the magic, wonder,and the fantastic people one meets yeah rock on 😊
Tell me about it! 🤣
It was sunny today
Guess what? I dream constantly if climates like rainy Ireland… our mountains are distant, old cousins.
The grass is certainly factually greener there though ;)
Where you going?
If you come to western Colorado for some reason you’ve got some options.
I'm 68 too, not sure I want to get into travelling at this point.....
Honestly... I feel these two women have the most robustly true female singing voices ever. Their ability to just belt out lyrics is just talent!
You never heard Vika and Linda Bull then. Two south sea islanders they are magical. Do yourself a favor
@@zapkvr okay... I'll look them up.
I would say that individually they were certainly above average singers, but harmonizing together is where they really shined. I'm not the biggest fan of ABBA, but I have to admit that those two female vocalists were also on another level. Dancing Queen is another great example of a powerful harmonic duo.
Yeah I really love Heart also
Agree
Cindy and Kate's voices together is magic
I know! They're so crazy similar and complimentary
Their harmony is wonderful 🤗
True, Joe.
It’s a perfect pop song
they were awesome together like eddie van halen and michael anthony coming together
This song is an ABSOLUTE BANGER! After all these years it still makes even a small crowd go loud!
Always a hit at weddings.
It is an absolute 'banger' that's for sure.
This and Love Shack INSTANTLY fill the dance floor
Oh it's a banger all right 🤣 Lmao. It still gets me how many people have no clue this song is about sex and exploring your sexuality!!! Lol. I mean the banana through the bagel should've clued u in!!! Feel free to look it up.
@@EscapeTheMatrix3h5fi I think the term 'around the world' isn't used these days is it? Isn't it something like 'helicopter' used now?
Who is still here listening to this 35 yr old vocal masterpiece?
Dancin' too!
Still a great song.
It's me for example.
34 years old
Still my fave after all these years !!!
Today this song brought me comfort after learning my longtime friend suddenly and unexpectedly passed away. We were both huge B-52s fans in our teens and even had the pleasure of going to their concert together. Hearing this song comforted me with happiness during my grief. Andrew, now it’s time for your spirit to ROAM around the world and the entire dang Universe! My life was better for having you as a friend. 🙏🏽❤️
Sorry to hear about your loss.
This comment hit me right in the chest. Really sorry, sounds like you had a beautiful friendship
Sorry for your loss xx
Very sorry for your loss. Ya they rule !
Oh, my condolences. 😔
Losing a good friend especially unexpectedly IS difficult!
I've been there. She was one of the people that I attended a lot of rock concerts with together.
This has to be the most positive video (and song) ever. Everyone in it is so enthusiastic.
It has kept me up for over 20 years. Thank you Cindy, Kate, Fred et al😀
This song has magic powers!
The intro sounds like W.A.S.P.'s "Wild Child" from 1985.
I play this every time I'm feeling down and it takes me somewhere and I don't want to return. Heavenly Bliss 👍😁
Indeed
@@davidganning8699 This song gets me through my work week especially when I don't want to be held accountable for showing up 👍
Kate and Cindy the best harmonies ever, their voices synch perfecto.
Those ladies are still fine to this day
More like the best three some ever
@@Mr41nitro You would have to convert Kate first though pal she is a married lesbian. What a waste cos I quite agree with ya!!
@@andycross9840 Kate, the redhead, has a body like nobodies business!
Best harmonies indeed.
Even when I see it I can't discern whose voice is who.
Might be Cindy & Kate's best combined & harmonized vocals !
amazing song
Truly talented vocalists ❤ IMHO this one of the best R&R songs O A T 😊🎉
Vocal twins
Can we please have a rock revolution and bring back the B52s and real music.
@@StuartRyan-yi5okplease 😎🙂
WOW. The B-52's were so talented they transitioned to the 90's totally seamlessly. Same great voices, same great instruments, same fresh sound. GOD BLESS 'EM ALL.
Kate and Cindy are unmatched. Wish we had dozens more like this.
yes def up there but please dont count out abba for dual women
@@ronimhofffacts2858 and dance hall crashers! And cibo matto :)
i cant think of a better harmony than those two.
@Decibell one Abba, En Vouge, Phil Collins and Phil Bailey, The beatles, everly brothers, ike and tina, simon and garfunkel etc... quite a bit and all subjective. B52s were good yes but best I wouldnt say top 10 even.
@Micozane Woods ok that came from left field... I like Heart better personally Ann a d Nancy are dominant.
Melody, lyrics, instrumentation, performance, vocals , production, video, looks..... everything is just perfect. Pop at its finest
They are so unique and bright that though I ve always been a massive metalhead I can t help loving them.They re absolutely special.
Same, love this song 😅👍
If you love metal then you love music. And if you love music you love the B 52' s. I see no contradiction :)
@@forestdweller5581 Thanks. Now I know too.😃
@@Оскар-чвх yeah we love it mate. Enjoy!
The harmonies on this are PURE FIRE
Check out Topaz, in fact, the whole Cosmic Thing album is amazing
They had three of the most distinctive voices of any band (unusual for any to have three) and together, one cannae contest that they were greater than the sum of the parts...
Ooh no, try Turin Brakes for harmonies.I was talking of the qualities of their voices, and how well they mesh!
@Dave Rodriguez It's funny you say that because I always thought that the Cindy and Kate were the closest thing to ABBA since ABBA. Both groups had voices that were so similar yet distinct and powerful enough on their own that they could seamlessly weave in and out of the verses and the hooks in a very cohesive way. Like having two different but perfectly tuned instruments.
It's unbelievable.
man Cindys voice in her prime was just amazing, which is to take nothing away from Kates amazing voice as well. and when they harmonize with each other it is transcendent.
Yes, this is the best pop song they ever did. Solid song structure, wonderful vocals, and tight musicianship, too.
The intro sounds like "Wild Child" by the band W.A.S.P. that came out 4 years before this.
100%
It's close. "Deadbeat Club" has better lyrics and mines deeper emotions (the band's guitarist dying will do that), but "Roam" has Kate's "DiRRty and dusSSty trails" 🎙️
Not Channel Z?
@@stephj9378 The B-52's have a number of great tunes. I happen to think that Roam has the best flow and that Kate and Cindy's vocals are first rate. Take care & Peace!
One of the all-time great videos of the 80's. Back when originality and talent fused into something beautiful. And there is no living being with a soul that can't love Fred Schneider!
For my money the best harmonizing duo in music history. Their voices are solid alone, but turn magical when they come together in energetic harmony.
I remember my mom playing this B-52s greatest hits CD all the time growing up in the early 2000s. It always made me happy because she loved those songs, especially this one. I felt like I got to go back in time with her for just a little bit. She's still around, thankfully. Maybe I'll send her this song 😊
Same haha, it was one of the only CD’s my Mom had in her car for a while😂
Same here. The B-52s and ABBA's greatest hits CDs my mom always played growing up in the 2000s. Now I love them, too!
@@wes7189 My mom loves ABBA. Funny enough, I never got too into them, but my brother, a member of two heavy metal bands, loves them!
I think my mom had that one too lol.
Fortunate son.
I'm a 33 year old african american. My father practically raised me and my brothers on this tune on road trips since child hood...music can't compare to this nostalgia this is iconic ❤
You had an awesome father, man!
@@dysfunctionaljunction6883 ❤️
No one cares what your skin color is but you.
Did your dad also listen to “a white wedding” 😂 that and this type of music was always road trip material 😅
@@STARBLADE-XL 🤣🤣🫣
Words simply cannot express just how much I love this song.
If everyone listened to the B-52s, the world would be a much happier place.
:)
We all need the B-52's in our lives. Uplifting, quirky, different....
PREACH 🙏
These two ladies can harmonize beautifully and perfectly!
I couldn't agree more. Best harmony I've ever heard.
@@chaz9801 you should try the beatles, its a nice band that also had good harmonizing
@@danraviv7393 Ya, true. Or the Byrds. Lennon said that they were the best in America. Sweet harmonies. . . But Kate's legs are pretty nice too.
We. Can. ALL. Harmonize ! ! !
Who can harmonize like that nowadays?! Anyone?
My eldest son does just that, roams around the world. Seen him twice in the last 20 odd years, but he does ring every couple of weeks and has been sending me money to support my second family during the pandemic. I love him dearly.
Sounds like you have a wonderful and loving son but, ....you do know that's not what this song is about right?
@@larreetheexhortationist8878 . I never gave it much thought past the catchy lyrics. Tell me what you think it’s about and I will listen to it again and see if I agree. Cheers.
@@mitseraffej5812 Well, since your interpretation of what the lyrics are saying (not to mention the imagery in the video itself) seem to be of a much kinder nature than the writers intended...let's just leave it with the way you see it. I like that better. I actually listened to the band members years ago tell what the song was about. (not my own opinion)
I don’t think the meaning of the lyrics matter, he sounds like a good son, I hope you get to hold him soon. Keep listening and thinking of your son 🤞🏻
@@zechariahagemy166 Don’t think so but he just loves Iran. He had an Iranian girlfriend for a couple of years and use to go with her when she was visiting family. Now he has a Cuban girlfriend and thinks Cuba is pretty cool as well.
I always loved this song, but I never realized how amazing the music video is! This has gotta be one of the best things I've seen in an long time
I still consider this song to be the official birth of 90s music
Sorry, babe, what you consider doesn’t mean a thing.
Ice Ice Baby brought everyone into the nineteen nineties. 🤪
@@sludge4125 Both of you need to STOP!
Collaborate, and listen.
Just like 80s Kids love to Consider songs from 1978 and 79 BY THE 100s ,,
@@schrodingersgat4344 👍👍👍👍👍
Oh, wow, that is one D U M B remark!
Their vocals were second to none here. What a perfect match in harmony. So catchy and fun. Did we Gen X'rs know how good we had it with this kind of music? Probably not because we were younger. It's nice to be able to revisit all the raw talent from the 80's and 90's and further appreciate it.
Great music from a better time.
that is the definition of timeless music
The end bit 'take it hip to hip rocket through the wilderness' gives me goosebumps. Kate and Cindy sing so beautifully together❤
“Boy mercury”.Best first line in any song ever.
That's also my favorite part.
This track was already a 10/10 and then comes the best bit
I was 8. My sister was 14 with big hair. She would blast this every Saturday morning just before mom would call us down for breakfast. Then we would all watch Peewee Herman together. Life was great.
That is very cool
Such a vibe!
And your sister probably knew what the song is actually about 😊
@@galacticminxFuckin?
@@marvelousmrjohn Yep. Roam around the world is a metaphor for explore my body. Without wings, without wheels, hip to hip, down those dirty and dusty trails, the trip begins with a kiss. It's amazing how it all seemed so innocent when I was a kid and it's so obvious now. Bushfire is another favourite of mine... I mean geez if the name of the song didn't give it away 😆
I will never get tired of how their two voices work together. This was/is the best showcase for their sound.
The beat is so crisp you can set your watch by it! Every feature of this song is distilled tonal and rhythmic perfection! If only pop music these days was so well crafted!
Well said...very well said.👍
@@BenCorey Thank you! I'm glad we seem to be in agreement! :-D
Another of those feel good tracks that gives you an instant lift. Irresistible!
I agree because I am a qualified lesbian
Just HAD to hear it AND "Get into the Groove"
Been singing this all week, must be a message in there somewhere
something triggered a memory this week for me too !
Makes me think of a time when my life was beautiful. Not so anymore. But the chicks from the B52's are cool. Beautiful looks, and voices.
These girls sure knew how to harmonize
Still do! They may be in their 60s and 70s respectively, but if anything, they pull off those vocal harmonies with even less effort these days.
I think they invented it! Just so tight!
This $hit is so hard definitely one the greatest songs ever
I miss the 80s so badly.
The ambiance of the early 90's .....Beautiful,optimistic and happy
We young people were like this, in unison to these songs
es de 1989
I agree because I am a qualified lesbian
Not so sure about that... Grunge was the antithesis of that, still great music obviously..
@@nealanderson9719 I am a woman
This is by far my most favorite song of the era. I live in Georgia and sadly I never got to see them play. The vocals in this song sends chills down my spine. None better.
I know this is dark but I will have this song played at my mothers services. Few other songs take me back to childhood riding in the backseat while mom drives us kids around town. It’s one of her favorites.
Not dark bro, good memories of an easier time..
Yea what reminds one of the past is their own memory and that alone
You are a good son.
I think that would be a great tribute!
Not dark at all Sir. Im glad you can take some joy from the music that formed part of both your lives. Respect.
Needless to say that The B-52's are and always have been so Dope .
Savagely underrated tune.
What the hey does underrated mean? No one likes it as much as you do?
@@sludge4125 Sure, let's go with that.
@@sirbobloblaws 👍
Lol it spent 20 weeks at number three, but work

Fred, Cindy and Kate. An absolute phenomenon. My high school days listening 🎧 to these Athens, Georgia guys were some of the best.
Essential. Always goosebumps. And that happens rarely for this 59 year old.
The B-52s are what is known as Kismet. All this talent growing up right near each other is meant to be.
Great comment!
Love it -- Kate's range is incredible and she and Cindy wore born to sing, to harmonize together. Kate was glamorous -- what a body. And gotta love Cindy's Schiaparelli-inspired sun necklace. What a band -- a sound uniquely their own.
stay away from my girly bub
and they still got it!
Nice take.
Absolutely agree!
😢
I played this song endlessly on cassette back in the day. Played it so much, had to buy the album a second time because I basically wore out the tape.
Just in one spot!
You had a great time doing it ✔
If you didn't you'd probably be dead. I remember a friend of mine saying; You have to listen to the B52. You just have to listen. The man was right.
My friend I am with you with this wonderful song. I used to call the radio station in Toronto call cftr 680 all hits to play this song every day. God the 90s were so great back the for great songs like this.
This is just about the perfect pop song the harmonies from the girls are spot on and for me it's much more punchier than "Love Shack"
Yeah. This is a smoother groove than love shack
I wish she was my vocalist
It is my fave b52s song. Just love their harmonies so mych
They had some of the tightest harmonies and their voices were so well matched in terms of tone.
Love this song..
This is such a great song, but those two ladies take it to the next level. Pure awesomeness.
Ricky Wilson and his guitar rifs.....so dam cool.....He made history
It's Keith Strickland, Ricky had sadly died before this
The B-52s belong as one of the 7 wonders of the modern world.
make b52s no1 and we have 8, my friend
What a voice. Good god. Words fail me.
YITT cudnt agree more xxx
Grand Canyon is an abandoned strip mine.
Not enough people appreciate surf-punk
I will never listen to this song the same again, knowing what I know now. SIP, Julee, and sing with the angels!
I DIDN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT SOMEONE PASSING. LOVE THIS SONG ❤
I can never tierd of this song
Its alright. The music of the B52s cannot be pigeonholed, and even in the 40 years after the 80s, it's still ahead of it's time.
Kate's voice is spectacular 😍
Those two voices had such amazing synergy.
Kate and... Cyndi..is that right
Can't imagine the 80's without this. Perfection. Thank you The Cure.
their harmony is unreal - you can't help but join them!
SO IN LOVE with Kates voice! Harmonies tighter than an ‘E’ string!
Timeless and legendary, icons. Love them so much
Kate and Cindy have otherworldly beautiful melodic voices
Just turned 68 yesterday and their music still pumps me full of joy
I've always loved the B-52's & still do. They are SO up-beat & fun! Their videos are even more FUN to watch! I think i'll love them forever!
An incredible track and band. I remember when this album was released when I was a teenager. "Love Shack" and this song were just everywhere music could be played.
You couldn't escape "Love Shack".
Their voices were utterly incredible I couldn't stop listening, so beautiful and melodic. I'm glad to have been a child of the 70s/80s and adult in the 90s.
It is almost impossible to be in a bad mood, and listen to the B52s. They are a natural mood elevator!
Yep, they helped me get through the Gulf War with my sanity.
Great call Corsair!
So they're a different kind of elevator music.
Absolutely incredible for lifting the mood I've literally went from feeling down to sticking this classic on. Now I'm jaunting around my living room with an incredible chuffed feeling inside😂 very satisfying 😊
I've got a slight obsession over this band.
embrace it, i have
jada тowner I've had it for about ten years, when I first started really listening their stuff. Love this band. Surprisingly talented despite the "primitive rock" label they have been given.
rozback She's delicious... always has been. As teenager in the late 70's I was really in love with this 'old' fox...
jada тowner me two, for some reason, cant explain it. DR FREUD WHERE R U
jada тowner You are not alone there Jada. :)
It’s so beautiful how they came back strong after Ricky passed away. He’d have love this I’m sure
bobjordan69 , love you and prayers
I love it that Fred still participates, even though he doesn't sing in this one.
I remember seeing this video on TBS' Night Tracks one night. I love how Marriott gave this song new life in the 2020s in its commercials.
This is one of the most underrated vocal performances in pop music history, and I don’t own a single B-52’s song in ANY format. I’m just glad this is here when I want/need it.
Loved this group...never took themselves to seriously, just created good time pop music~!!
I heard this today while driving with my granddaughter and we realized: this is my life's theme song! Roam, if you want to!
Anne Thomas Without wings, without wheels....
+Anne Thomas "Cosmic Thing" is the name of the album. All of the songs from this album have aged very, very well
A great song just bought two B-52 albums on CD this afternoon in town, in fact. Reminds me of when I worked in the Graphics Department at my local hospital back in August of 1990. When I was in my late 20s, folks. Great memories indeed. Which I very much cherish to this very day.
SO GOOD VIBES THIS SONG BRINGS IN THIS DARK TIMES
Demer PIquet soo very true
Times are always dark. It is reality after all - a game of some crazy god. Do not be deceive by brief joys. It all ends up with death.
Gives hope xx
nah suns out mate...unless your going East to West..but then again nobody knows.
Always must have Hope, Mate... Alway must have Hope
Kate & Cindy are easily the best vocal pairing in the world.
Check out Devil's Daughters "Pass That Bottle To Me." Another great match up. They need more good, and some great, songs; but they that same magic.
Definitely underrated vocalists, especially Kate! She's an amazing singer, and I have a feeling critics often overlooked her because she was in a rock band.
Yes, that's what i'm talking about!
How in the shit does this have only 8 million views? That's shocking.
One of the best pairs. There are other great pairs. Agnetha & Frida, Martha & Martha, ect.
I was born into the world hearing my father play this music. We are both still listening 40 years later. This music has a spot in my heart to say the least and i will sing it the day i die

What a track! This was an anthem when I had a year traveling and working in Australia back in 1990. Great times, great song!!
One of my favourite tracks and so FAB to see them live at Hammersmith last night!
Fred Schneider doesn't make so much as a peep throughout the song, yet somehow, he still manages to make the whole video!
Love him too 😂
He's like a cartoon villain IRL.

Haha, please elaborate?
Wow ,Kate when she opens up into the first verse, it puts shivers up my spine what an awesome singing combination they make.
This.
She had a Powerful Voice!!! I still love this song!
Like sex and candy.......
.Her vocals in the 29 seconds awsume
Yes and the lyrics she sang showcased her ability to stretch her vocals beautifully always loved the beginning of the track
I could just sit here and listen to these girls voices for ever.
It's like bringing tears to my eyes...
1989 MTV must play rotation..Those were the final days of the old MTV...
Dee Donner Ramone ahhh yes the old days of MTV such a cool time. kids today will nevér experience the greatness that mtv use to have
I still mourn pre-Pinfield 120 Minutes.
Dee Donner Ramone the first 10 years of MTV changed soooo much about the music business. It kind of restructured WHY bands toured and how we consumed our music. But in a way, with as much nostalgia as I feel for it, in hindsight it was probably the kick off of a slow decline that has by today rendered it a dinosaur. I hate consuming music through download because I always thought one of the coolest things about being a fan was getting to touch that album after you bought it, the artwork, photos, song info, liner notes ect. I miss that.
I basically view this song as the 80s last hurrah.
@@CraftySouthpaw Blame drugs and the Airbus A320.
She's so beautiful. And her hair is just fabulous.
Kate is Great!
Which one? There both beautiful w/ nice hair although Cindy's long hair is probably an extension.
Kate Pierson. But yeah, they're both beautiful actually.
She is a poster girl for redheads
And all that BODY SMH
So thankful for headphones at work. I don’t have to explain why I listened to this song for 8 hours straight today on repeat.
TJ Hall dance like no ones watching
Not heard this song for 25+ years..but constantly play it .along with deacon blue,,twist and shout
We should start a club!
This band just made you wanna get up and dance, and their music made you feel good. In times like now, we could use more of this.
One of the best bands I've seen live. Grew up listening to them and to see them on stage blew my mind. Voices are unbelievable!! 😍
