Take me back to 1993 and Grade 12..... loved me some David Dixon
class of 93'
Monday 6th February 2023.... 33 years and 1990 is just like yesterday
This is one of my go to songs when I test out any new HiFi equipment. Also reminds me of when I was a young kid, being born in 1985. Love the slap bass in this song, the little detailed parts and how it just keeps sounding better when I play it through a different system!
1990 finally got a cd player and was amazed at prince graffitti bridge. hearing riffs i never heard before, drum fills, keyboard fills then it was beatles 'abbey road".
Another band I saw live, front row, dead centre. They are a great Live band.
This is it!
Back in the day, the DJS were so busy playing anything but this gem.
I'm so glad to find this song, and my fountain of youth in UA-cam!
So powerful. So harmony...
OMG I was totally obsessed with David Dixon when I was about 14-15 yrs old. He was a God to me back then 💜 hehe
Gosh! Mine was Andrew Coyne! You see my parents (or most likely my Mom) were diggin' Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin), Hendrix, Brian May (Queen), and all those other great Bands. So I got into liking dark-haired Guitarists. There's just something about them. Quiet, Dark, and that LOAD of Talent! In a corner of the eye throughout a Band's blazing concert that really gets me! And I can't help but look! They just command and can pull attention. My Dad used to tie his wavy hair around the back of his neck. When he unties.... I get to see why Mom married him. Man! I'll have my Husband grow his hair..... like he did when we first met 💋💞🧡
Same I thought I was going to marry him lol
I was only 4 and my father took me to buy tickets for their concert for my sisters (and maybe me aswell) and david dixon was there at the arena, and my dad spoke to the band and he called me cute and pretty and picked me up. I was so shy. He kissed my cheek. I was the happiest girl ever.
La vida loca
So was I. Think I was bout 25 as t the time.
Sheesh this an oldie - found it when searching to show my husband something. I was 11 when this was released and us girls loved them (along with Bros, naturally ;) ).
Cue MAJOR excitement when my best friend's mum said "Oh I know those boys"...her sister was their manager and we were all like "AND YOU NEVER TOLD US?!!!". So that we dined out on for ages, my friend & I changed schools (I went to boarding school, she moved to Sydney where her aunt was) and even when I'd gone past that stage it was still pretty cool getting signed photos of them and pics of my friend with them.
I remember when this came out and her aunt said to watch the chick in the back - she managed her and she was doing backup vocals for them, the aunt said "remember her name, she'll do well", so we all knew who the backup singer was - it is of course Jo Beth-Taylor.
She signed of one the photos I was sent where my friend was pictured with them all, she was in the pic then - in hindsight she must have only been about 19-20, if that. For those asking, yes it is her voice you hear and she is the one with blond hair seen at various stages of the song. Not dreadlocks, they were thousands of tiny plaits, she had them in for the first pics then had them out in later ones.
She wasn't a member of the band, they just had the same manager and her voice fitted best with the song so she did the backup vocals, she was originally trained/managed as a singer from memory but obviously later became more a tv personality and exceed their success.
I didn't follow them after about 1990 other than what my friend told me and sent me (God I feel old, I still have those old letters & photos somewhere lol) - I do believe she did do backup vocals for at least 2 other songs.
Most pointless thing I've read.
I loved them when I was 12
The managers name was Amanda Pelman if I remember correctly she also helped Kylie when she started with the loco-motion
My dad managed a recording studio and Indecent Obsession were working on their album there. I remember because Molly Meldrum was often there mentoring them.
@@funtimefreddie9637 probably because a friend and I that wrote it were totally shitfaced...I told her to write it for me and ended up laughing my head off.
I remember hearing this song back in 1990, it was the only song by this band played on American radio AFAIK. I still like it!
That is one ball-tearing solo for a dance act, always loved it. Excellent vibrato and great pick harmonics.
Omg found this in the restoration of my old record player and found this 45 record. Brings me back to my late teens in the 80s when my obsession was clothes, cars and girls. Oh my ..
Love your music ❤❤
Saw them in my first concert in South Africa in the 90’s.
2:40 Best guitar solo ever recorded by a boy band.
Couldn't I dance to that not anymore
Total & Absolute BAD ASSERY of an (underrated) Masterpiece of an 80s Tunage....Absolutely Ahead of its time and full of creativy & funkyness....The guitar solo is absolutely BRILLANT as well as the main Synth Riffage that is incredibly catchy & melodic....Pure Aussie GENIUS !!!
My childhood favourites
懐かしい‼️1991年OSAKA IMP live行きました✨
Finally found this song july 2020 😍😍
Found this! Finally!
looking for this video !
Everybody was crushing on David Dixon then. But mine was ANDREW COYNE! You see my parents (or most likely my Mom) were diggin' Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin), Hendrix, Brian May (Queen), and all those other great Bands. So I got into liking long-haired Guitarists. There's just something about them! Quiet, Dark, and that LOAD of Talent. In a corner of the eye throughout a Band's blazing concert that really gets me! And I can't help but look! They just command and can pull attention. When I was very young, my Dad used to tie his wavy hair around the back of his neck. When he unties.... I see now why Mom married him. Man! I'll have my Husband grow his hair....... Again! Like he did when we first met 💋💞🧡
scorching solo, one of my favourites from any Aussie band. Where can I hear this man's work elsewhere?
+KJezza They are long gone - search Indecent Obsession and David Dixon, last seen early 90's :)
@@pr3ttyb0n3z2 Thanks I knew that would be the case but he must be a working musician
I remember this song. I purchased the cassette single from Sam Goody.
So? It's pointless facts
This is what I am looking for.
Que Indecente obsesión por estos chicos,claro en esa época de adolescentes,pero quién es el guitarra que canta junto al vocalista,que ojos tan bellos y del otro su voz susurrando realmente excita
Jo-Beth is somewhat hard to recognise on the video, but she does sing great backing vocals on the recording too. Here, what does she look like, what's she wearing, etc?

My cusin is the drummer on this awesome band ahaha it’s funny how embarrassed he gets when I play his songs he just does dj party’s now, a bit of a shame cause there band was actually really good
I remember way back in the 90's a radio show asking people to ring in if they went to school with anyone famous.
A few girls rang in and said they went to school with the drummer from Indecent Obsession...after a while the DJ ask if anyone out there could ring in only of you didn't go to school with the drummer from indecent obsession..lol , one of those thing's I've always remembered but can't remember the radio station it was on , maybe JJJ.
Bros banda australiana de calidad , buena musica , buen aspecto y presentacion , talento de calidad , voces naturales , exelente timbre y Ritmo , no hay que arreglarles la voz ni el aspecto son simplemente perfectos , no como la musica basura flaite drogadicta que sale hoy en dia , no hay talento , no hay voz ni menos ritmo , estamos en la era de la musica basura , la peor de la historia .
David Dixon's voice combined with Tina Arena's is phenomenal
thats Jo Beth Taylor
Годный клип. Приятный звук.
My old 11 yr self has actually had a look about for this performed live - only ones are on Hey Hey it's Saturday and quality is awful on all, not watchable at all.
Having my friend know them I do know they never properly toured - they DID play some gigs though. Anyone know of good live footage for this song? Can only find the others like Say Goodbye etc
I heard there was a lot of corruption in Australian music industry. Best talented bands like Real Life or Pseudo Echo or Savage Garden had to try their luck in Europe or the USA. The rest like this one had no talent but were promoted in australia due to connections and collusions.
Saw them years ago supporting Johnny Diesel
Really? Wow, that's a bit of a mismatch; surely their fanbases don't overlap that much.
From memory, the crowd seemed more "receptive" to Johnny Diesel
I don't suppose this is available in Mp3 form is it??
She's got her hair in braids. She can be spotted on stage, in a red crop top and wielding a tambourine. She can be clearly seen at 1:25 and 1:33, for example.
We need their first album on Spotify
Nathan, which version is this one? This mix is definitely NOT the original Australian mix. It's certainly sounds like the International Mix... but slightly different.
The video is the original Australian music video. The audio is exactly the same as I remember it airing on TV here in 1989. This is ripped from the band's 'The Videos (Indecent Exposure)' VHS.
@@ohnoitisnathan20 Any luck with the Optimystic videos? Have you noticed that you can't videos online from latter days First Avenue Records artists?
Does anyone know where I can listen to the spoken words album. I really wanna find the song SURVIVE THE HEAT. If you can please help
S C Buy the CD from a decent music store that brings in imported records. I buy all my music from Red Eye Records in Sydney.
@@HyperHorse thank you. Im from perth. I will try look up that store. I really loved that song. And its sad how indecent obsessions albums aren't on spotify.
You'll probably be able to buy used copies on eBay or discogs.

Anyone know where you can buy or download this song?
They only have the video on iTunes, and it is missing the guitar track, although it shows them playing it.
Try eBay.. lol. Either the single or the album (Spoken Words). It's also on the Australian various artists compilation album 'Let's Do It - Summer 1990'.
@@ohnoitisnathan20 I’ve got that album somewhere. Thanks for the reminder
not many aussies have a top 40 in america.
This song was awsome to hear on the radio. I use to crank it up
This came out 89/90 i think
@@briannoonan6116 the best guitar solo since edie van halen in jump.
Lol so many did in the 80s and there are many Aussie number 1s in America
kkkkkkk funny 80's
What an annoying intro! Could have edited that bit out!
Easily edited out with software.
