Ultravox Reaction Visions In Blue (A MASTERPIECE!!) | Dereck Reacts

[@autumnmatthews3179]

Ultravox are my life, and I can't turn down any video of this beautiful masterpiece

[@mooseyman74]

Good taste! 😊

[@joelg34]

Sip from the wine of youth again. Kudos.

[@warwicktrail]

You may not have been around when bands of the 80s were but youtube allowed you to enjoy and appreciate the bands from my youth ,

[@annesmith2259]

One of my favorite Ultravox songs. So many great tracks like reap the Wild wind The Thin wall The Voice Anything really

[@MorningNapalm]

Vienna has to be in there, even if it did get a lot of airtime. Mr. X

[@yann-solo7703]

Oh my God! It's been a long time since I've heard the title "Visions in Blue" ... And you're right Dereck, it's a masterpiece, an incredible track, a perfect blend of Midge Ure and UltraVox.

[@SugarTots24]

This still gives me goosebumps even after 42 yrs ❤❤

[@paulmurphy7626]

Visions In Blue is probably in my top five Ultravox songs. This is the band that launched me into synth, and a love for music in general back in 1984 when I discovered them. It's pure joy seeing a reaction and observation of such an important song.

[@johnlaujensen5022]

Ultravox was such a great group with the brilliant Midge Ure standing out from the rest. This is early days synth music and it still beats the s... out of many performers today. Listen to their catalogue and you will find several masterpieces. So great that you have stumpled across this fantastic group.

[@SequentialCircuitProphet5]

I am a UVOX fan. This is the first track of the second side "Quartet" album. The album is good (not a huge) and this song is one of his best. One of my favorite too. An excellent choice 😊

[@aarongreeley15]

I got to see Midge live recently and he was phenomenal!

[@mooseyman74]

Me too, still knocks it out of the park with vocals, guitar and keyboards

[@alyzu4755]

Same. He's amazing!

[@781David]

I saw him with Band Electronica March 2020 in Sydney Australia. Probably the last concert before we got locked down for Covid. It was a great show!

[@damienmaynard8892]

Sang this for my singing exam back in the late 80's. No-one was more surprised than me when I passed! The original music video was a bit risque for it's time - probably still is! If you remember Band Aid - Midge Ure had as much to do with it as Bob Geldof! (and Bob got a bloody knighthood!)

[@joannetyndall3625]

Wow...lots of years since I heard this beauty x

[@mickhalligan1772]

Saw midge in concert last night in London. Still rocking at 70. Didn't do this one which is a shame

[@SequentialCircuitProphet5]

Wow lucky u are 😊

[@leggylady]

Royal Albert Hall? I was there too!

[@maelmoor]

Great reaction! Yeah the build-up is amazing, such a cool track with layers of synth coming at you!

[@jimw859]

Probably my favourite Ultravox track. Hymn and The Voice also sit up there as well. I rotate between those three depending on my mood. The vocal, the orchestrations, the beat, it's just pure perfection. The word epic is actually so appropriate. The final swell in the last verse when he goes back into his belt alwaus gives me shivers. Midge Ure is probably one of the finest pop vocalists of the 80s.

[@alyzu4755]

I love your reactions! Especially to Ultravox and Midge Ure. They're so underrated in the U.S.

[@MikePaterson]

Fantastic album. I saw the tour and they were great. Recently saw Midge Ure on tour which was bloody superb as well!

[@rtid7538]

There's a reason this isn't the official video. Shall we say, it has a bit of a link to some of Duran Duran's videos? One of Ultravox's best! Thanks!

[@leggylady]

Ultravox were my first musical love (as a very very young child, a toddler), and they will always be. They were never really given the credit for how pioneering and influencial they were on what came after, not only musically but also visually with their videos and they never had the success they should have in the states. I love that the internet and youtube in particular is opening their genius up to a whole new generation.... thankyou for being a part of that!

[@andik8570]

you made my Day Dereck thank you for choosing Visions in Blue...????? There are trully Synthy Gods...???? Thanks to Billy, Midge, Warren & Chris.....???? Amazing beeing a Teenager from late 70s till late 80s Ultravox Fan since early 1980 with Midge on Vocals....

[@derrywalker7835]

Midge Ure is still touring and I saw him this year and he’s still got it! He’s also a guitar wizard which is overlooked. Epic song and great reaction👍

[@russellcoyne4302]

Went to see Midge in the Barrowlands, Glasow in May of this year, he was outstanding. Check out The Voice if you thought this was exceptional

[@pascalmarfaing4945]

I have all Ultravox's CD ! 🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹

[@MikeKeel]

Great reaction Dereck. Imagine listening to this on cassette back in the day. With no access to MTV. All we had was a crappy pair of headphones but it was still amazing!

[@JontyBlue67]

James Ure, has probably one of the best dramatic, powerful voices ever. When he joined the band there was already a Jim, so he reversed it to Mij, but this didn't seem very sophisticated, so they spelt Mij as Midge, and the legend was born

[@ollythorp5428]

It was a band called Salvation way back in 1972, so he'd have been just 18 or 19...

[@darrenthelegendhubbard]

Dude love it when you young ones take a listen to my era, my fave band

[@spencersmith7266]

The entire Ultravox legacy - Foxx through Ure, is full of haunting music and mystery... They connected with something kind of numinous that trancends time.

[@yorkhawk]

Ah Visions in Blue! The song that taught me that you can have 16 beats to the bar in any song, even a slow ballad ;)

[@stuart879]

I used to always buy the extended versions of Ultravox songs as I couldn’t get enough of the sound

[@pavitarbachu2877]

This is my favourite Ultravox track of all time. Sends chills down my spine always. Controversial- it’s better than Vienna!😮

[@andrewwilson711]

Superb band one of my favourites

[@eggy1962]

Sleepwalk and Hymn are good songs by them. Plus there is Midge’s own hit “If i Was”

[@ianliverpool6623]

Great upload my friend . Thank you

[@ThomasSkogsberg-k4y]

I cant understand why new artists doesent make covers of this bands Insane good songs. 😮

[@connexionnature4583]

Very good songs today, perfect 🎉😊

[@shaunkemp9710]

Produced by George Martin!

[@stinkycricket]

you liked that. Well done. You got to Ultravox level 4. You have no official video, but loads are out there. To try and get to level 10 you need listen and react to 'I Remember Death in the Afternoon'

[@samanthabaines3578]

You get a better effect watching the official video, bit risqué but adds to the intensity😊

[@kevingay2746]

Very good song

[@paulbriody297]

Love your reaction!

[@mooseyman74]

One of my favourite Ultravox songs, good video but the original is great too

[@marcellocolosimo21]

Great choice ultravox underrated

[@nuketoto3868]

great 80s, 90s song : * Tasmin Archer - Sleeping Satellite * Alphaville - Dance With Me, forever young, big in japon, victory of love, soundlike melody * Raf - Self control

[@Dr_Flankensteinn]

Midge Ure is touring the US - "Band in a Box" :)

[@paulhendy9901]

Hi Dereck! I so forgot how awesome this track actually is! even better I believe I have it on vinyl 12 inch I’m going for a rummage in the cupboard. You really should check out Ghosts by Japan 😎👍

[@HACHEM613]

Émouvant… troublant

If I was a sailorman I might plug another Midge Ure song........

[@just2comment2]

have you reacted to "The Voice" by Ultravox? Another brilliant song of theirs.

[@Alejo585]

We're waiting for your reaction to Kylie Minogue's new album 😊🎉

I want to do it badly, I have to figure out and block some time
