[@kevinlong5392]

Oh my God! I just saw them a few weeks back on their Farewell Tour and it unbelievably one of the best concerts I've ever been to. I said to myself it's a shame this trendsetter of a group has not inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 🤔

I get goosebumps every time I hear this music. I remember dancing it when I was 16, in 1982, in a Night Club in Ericeira, Portugal, that was just in the edge of a cliff, right next to the Ocean. While you danced, you could see and even feel the waves and the swell crashing below, sometimes spraying the windows. It was always cold and stormy outside, but inside we always felt so wonderfully cozy and blissful. These were magical times.

J’avais 16 ans en 1983 . Chaques été , j’étais au Portugal , à Vieira de Leiria .C’était le brouillard humide le soir et un grand soleil la journée .

[@Balmesboy]

Just don't know how I missed/forgot this B-52 classic! Keep playing over n over. Cindy's n Kate's voices just blend so well together n like already been said the way they harmonise is just pure magic n hypnotising. So underrated and better than any other female duo from that era and now. Have always had my favourite tracks from previous albums but this I just can't believe is at least 40yrs old. Sounds even better now than when I first heard it.
