True, true - I always wondered how they arrived at the whole "Irish hillbilly" premise for the video. And overlaid on council houses in a decaying industrial town. It's strange, but it works. Still love this song, even though it's been played to death since it was a hit.

The band's name was derived from Dexedrine, a brand of dextroamphetamine (speed) used as a recreational drug among Northern english soul fans to give them energy to dance all night.

[@steveparker8065]

This song couldn't be avoided during the 80s, everyone in Britain knew it off by heart. Most of us ignored the obvious innuendo :) PS Apparently the line "Toora Loora Toora Loo-Rye-Aye" Is taken from an old Irish lullaby "Too Ra Loo Ra Loo Ral" meaning "Goodbye for now. I'll be seeing you"

[@bunpeishiratori5849]

[@s12856]

One of my absolute favourite holiday memories is this coming on in a dive bar in the middle of Slovenia a few years ago and everyone just 'moving', as Brad describe, while trying to sing it in extremely broken English. Doesn't matter who or where you are, you can't help it. A classic song that'll never go out of fashion

[@benshafer5198]

Sometimes folky hits from the UK and Ireland can sound rural US. Bluegrass was derived from folk music from that part of the world and Brad is right when he says it's a jig. Sing along pub music for sure. Cheers!

[@littlebittielatina1499]

Yes. You will find a similar folky-Celtic sound in the maritime provinces of Canada where our roots were Scots-Irish. Appalachian peoples were also of Scots-Irish heritage. The banjo was based on an African instrument and bluegrass was a fusion of musical cultures. I love the mixing of cultures on our continent and what it produced.

[@Nui.]

@@littlebittielatina1499 I made guitars for a famous British folk instrument maker for many years, and we exported a lot to U.S Bluegrass musicians in Nth America, (obviously) to Irish & Scottish musicians, and even to their brethren in the Basque Country.

Lex's Reactions are so fun to watch. She interestingly pictures herself on a farm with her overalls. In the original video for the song, the singer is wearing a pair of overalls!

Man, I remember being 17 in 1983 working at a pizza place for $3.15 an hour, minimum wage at the time, and my best friend was the assistant manager and after work we'd go back to his apartment and hang out and he didn't have cable to watch MTV but he could pick up TBS and TBS had a show called "Friday Night Videos" and they ran a lot of the same videos in the same rotation week after week and this video came on, and then Donna Summer "She Works Hard For The Money", then Kajagoogoo "Too Shy", then Spandau Ballet "True", then a few commercials, then Pat Benatar "Love Is A Battlefield", then Duran Duran "Rio" then Robert Plant and The Honeydrippers "Sea of Love" LOL If you were there you know what I'm talking about! Reading history books is one thing, but it's nothing like being there and living through it. I mean, when Miami Vice would come on they would advertise at the bottom of the screen that it was "In Stereo". Every episode of that series was like a miniature movie because the soundtrack had everything happening in the 80's, and every major TV and blockbuster movie star had a guest appearance on Miami Vice! Liam Neeson, Wesley Snipes, Julia Roberts, John Leguizamo, Lou Diamond Phillips, Jeff Fahey, Kelly Lynch, Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, Jimmy Smits, Ed O'Neill, Bruce Willis, Benicio Del Toro, Ving Rhames, and as far as musicians they had Miles Davis, James Brown, Glenn Frey, Gene Simmons, The Power Station, Little Richard, Frankie Valli, Ted Nugent, Frank Zappa, Sheena Easton and Phil Collins. It had beautiful photography, a lot of action, great music, beautiful cars, money, drugs, hookers, everything you want when you're living the good life! LOL

It's like watching mates listening to the same songs as ourselves for the first time over again. Your reactions are so refreshing and insightful, you both get them, but from a different place many times, you're so happy, that it's infectious, that's what I'm enjoying about watching your reactions so much! Please react to another Australian group (not saying "Dexy's Midnight Runners" are Aussie, but meaning that I've noticed your reactions to another Australian band named "AC-DC") named "Icehouse", they started off as "The Flowers" and their first album was called "Icehouse", but, as there was already an American band/group called the "Flowers", and because they wanted to expand over there, or to save confusion, our "The Flowers" changed their name to the title of their first LP. IceHouse aren't as big a name as the other bands you've been listening to, but I believe you'll enjoy their unique sound just the same. "Great Southern Land" has a big sound and gives a great vibe as to how we feel about our country Australia, "We Can Get Together" has a fun dancey feel to it. Please give our "IceHouse" a listen, you won't regret it! Also check out "Mental As Anything's" "Cats and Dogs" album, there are so many groups here, Hunters And Collectors, the list goes on!

[@ckobo84]

[@Dreyno]

Dexys started as a post punk/soul band (their first album was a masterpiece) and their second album was this style. Kevin Rowland (main man and singer) completely changed musical direction but kept some horns. The fiddles and banjo were from Irish music (his parents were Irish and he lived in Ireland for a few years as a child). The “too ra loo ra” bit is from Irish folk music where you’d occasionally have sections that were made up of words that didn’t mean anything. Like scat music.
