Video for the original extended 12'' mix made from live concert footage and clips from the other Book of Love promo videos synched to CD quality audio.
Yes I love 80's. I'm an 80's kid. The first time I heard this song on radio, I thought it's a boy singing because this woman have a voice of a boy. I love her voice.
WOW! This song brings back some haunting memories for me. I had just started doing drugs and would dance til I was soaked in sweat! Loved this song then and still love it now! The thing that makes this song so eerie yet captivating is her almost monotone voice when she sings.
Paul Toma The Peter Rauhofer mix is just as good as this mix. Pretty epic stuff! :-) Peter Rauhofer had his start with the group, CLUB 69 back in the early 90s.
I have the remixes of "Boy" on CD and one of the mixes on it is the Peter Rauhofer mix. It may be that mix, I'm not sure but.after I bought the CD and listened to it, I remember being crazy over a couple of the mixes on it and, for days, that's all I listened to. It's been so long since I've listened to it or any of my CDs, I forgot what it sounds like! LOL! Guess its time to start listening to my CDs again!
we couldnt have have realized how beautiful you are because when we first heard your beautiful voice the internet didnt exist all we had were speakers and extescy i love you guys
Dedicated to my beautiful, wonderful, intelligent, conservative and strong girls! My darlings are girly girls but have accomplished very manly tough things! My gorgeous girls are the whole darn package! 🥰 I’m a gen x mom, Totally traditional but admire my girls for showing me how much cooler life is when you can do some of the things that boys can do. Even though once in a while they’ll take advantage of their pretty privilege and being a girl, card! 😊❤ Also, for the dad, brother and all our amazing men in our lives that never excluded them from things that men usually would do.
Wow....all i can say is...wow ! These peeps are real artist ! carte blanche! i know, fore i went to art school with most of them in Philly when they where in a punk band called Head cheese ! Being artist, We are all really shy, which can be mistaken for all kinds of terms related to aloofness. These girls were the sweetest, down-to-earth, kindest people i met. So don't prejudge an artist because they don't act like your long lost pal.....we're a lot more guarded than normal people ! I danced my ass off in New York city to their songs....never knowing they where old schools buddies....[ which i'm really pissed at !] I bought their CD years later after working around the world, then saw the photo, ...then reality hit of who they really were to my life...HOLY SHIT ! You go girls ! i'm so freaking proud of everything you've done !...i'll never forget your infamous pre-performance films of "ATTACK OF THE KILLER BARBIES"... No one else could come up with that ! ...love ya !
UNDENIABLY, A FUCKEN BEAUTIFUL SONG. I HONESTLY, HONESTLY LOVE THE STYLE OF THIS SONG, THE BEAT, THE INSTRUMENTAL USAGE IF THE TUBE BELLS SOUND. THEY GOT DOWN. I TRIED TO COMPLIMENT UNTO ONE OF THE FEMALES BUT NOT A SINGLE "THANK YOU" STRANGE PEOPLE

Danced to this jam at the clubs in 1985 . Fantastic!

They opened for Depeche Mode twice in the 80’s . Seen them 2 more times 2. Great fun music! ❤❤❤
This song clarifies what restroom I should be using. Thanks BOL!!😂
Seem to have missed the meaning of the lyrics, which go in the opposite direction of gender clarification.
QUARANTINE 2020 THE 80s IS LIKE THE 50s NOW THIS IS A CLASSIC
MASTERPIECE........OUT OF PHILLY BABY

LoL I know what you mean after listening This u had to get the remix of witchcraft which is another one if their good remixes
Truly a lost classic ! Nothing more needs 2 b said
One of the best songs of the #80s - danceable, melancholy - "It's not my fault that I'm not a boy. It's not my fault I don't have those toys."
I remember the first time I heard this at 1470 West in Dayton, Ohio... best "boy bar" ever LOL

Boy, uh huh, boy, uh huh
Boy, uh huh, boy, uh huh
Boy, uh huh, boy, uh huh
Boy, uh huh, boy, uh huh
Boy, uh huh, boy, uh huh
Boy, uh huh, boy, uh huh
I want to be where the boys are
But I'm not allowed
I wait outside of the boy's bar
I wait for them to all come out
I'm not a boy
I'm not a boy
It's not my fault
That I'm not a boy
It's not my fault
I don't have those toys
I'm not a boy
I'm not a boy
Boy, uh huh, boy, uh huh
Boy, uh huh, boy, uh huh
Boy, uh huh, boy, uh huh
Boy, uh huh, boy, uh huh
And now it's alright
(And now it's alright)
Without those boys
(Without those boys)
I stay at home at night
(I stay at home at night)
And I play with my toys
(And I play with my toys)
Boy
I'm not a boy
Boy
I'm not a boy
Boy
I'm not a boy
Boy
I'm not a, not a, not a boy
Great song! Video editor needs some help!
