[@TheFartbreakKid]

Even does his own echo, what an absolute legend.

[@FrankPavese]

Che bel pezzo...sempre attuale

[@goofycker]

more a lack of suited equipment

[@westboundbadger]

Who needs it,..@@goofycker

[@ellen9575]

He still has it. I loved this song, I was in my early 20s , 2 kids, cooking and feeling free. It was a fun song

[@ignur]

even in 2024 a masterpiece, thank you ivan!

[@applejacks971]

"...Can you play keyboard?" "No, but I stayed in a Holiday Inn Express last night"

[@davidpemberton5561]

Lol

[@ericwoodard1103]

One of the best YT comments ever! Well done!

[@gitano045]

😂

[@lddk72]

Lol

[@TabsT-vy5jy]

LOL this is like your dad doing karaoke with the neighbourhood kids for community service instead of jail time.

[@PEHNKSTA]

The singing is on point, the keyboard is not even close lol

[@TannerisSmol97]

"on point" 13 years old confirmed

[@ran_d_d]

Yeah I agree. He still sounds exactly like he did 30 years ago ha. Sound is great especially for something that small in a news station.

[@keywestsunset3897]

I'm guessing the lead singer is the only original member, and the rest of the band wasn't even born yet

[@tombrady7039]

Ivan Doroschuk is the singer

[@randombotdude2083]

Yeah everyone else is replaced

[@DRIXER999]

Wow you think?

[@halcyon2832]

Originally the band was Doroschuk and his two brothers on bass and guitar. When Ivan reformed the band in 2010 I don't know why his brothers were not involved.

[@djscarygary]

AAAAAHHH HAHAHAHA!!!

[@starstar4314]

I miss the madness and variety of the 80s...great to hear a real band. ❤

[@AnBug242]

He has the voice ....

[@SmarchitectMann]

When Grandpa makes music with the grandkids, LOL I enjoyed this

[@SillyGoose2024]

1:10-1:15 this reminds me of the kids that would go into the sears at the mall to the electronics department and start playing the keyboards on the shelf

[@markleaman8313]

Sad,but true, man!

[@1rivia]

His voice is brillant! Didn't age!

[@The.void.itself]

Man his voice hasn't aged one bit and sounds amazing

[@AlexanderNixonArtHistory]

I agree

[@lfader]

The dude opening up his PRS is wicked on guitar !!! 💥😳 😎

[@jimduffy7199]

You can see the benefit of his classical training (he comes from a family of classical musicians) in how he protected his voice and in his ability to use it. Pop and rock musicians who have received classical vocal training are often noticeable for how little deterioration there is vocally with age. A lot of heavy metal singers in particular deliberately get full professional training, because heavy metal singing can all too easily lead to irreparable damage, so you need professional training to preserve it. It is after all their key resource. Ivan obviously isn't in the heavy metal genre, but his training means he can a sing a song as well as he could forty years ago.

[@norakat]

A little rough, but mad props for playing every note and all vocals live, also improvising on the synth sounds. It was groovin toward the end.. good fun.

[@hermangouw]

His voice is still similar to the 80's.

[@jzen1455]

Minus the faux whatever accent he used then.

[@Evercreeper]

@@jzen1455 Yeah

[@Star_Jewel]

@@jzen1455 He probably exaggerated his voice a bit in the original recording for comedic effect

[@damienthorne861]

This is great ! the song is great! From a 64 year old who has loved this song since it's inception

[@Cowboyjow]

this is so raw. its amazing. Not what I would expect from this guy.

[@user-vr9cn5es6k]

His voice got stronger and the song got better. That is rare. Hey lets dance! I love it!

[@Louisefalk78]

How can you not love this guy. His voice is insane. I was 5 years old when i heard this song for the first time. His voice is therapeutic, its so beautiful. I caught myself dancing when i heard this on my headphones while waiting for the bus. Everybody was staring and i just thought... Well at least you're no friend of mine. I can dance if i want to, and i really want to. Cant wait to see them next year. I signed up as a volunteer at belgium oostend festival next year just to see them.

[@Sloppylicious]

Holy crap. At least it's performed live. Not many do this these days.

[@watsonjimclip2778]

Not really. Who is doing the percussion and the bass?

[@Sloppylicious]

@@watsonjimclip2778 So a band needs a bass player to be considered as live? Depeche Mode fans would hate you.

[@JadenYukifan28]

​@@SloppyliciousI like the fact that only three instruments are being used throughout the song.

[@jwardbass4452]

@@watsonjimclip2778A drum machine. There doesn’t need to be a person on stage controlling that. The bass is probably also a loop or is played by one of the keyboardists. This is just a fact of entirely electronic music.

[@nawnaw4709]

​@watsonjimclip2778 the workstation

[@dorontsur]

This is so horribly amazing.

[@nathanisaksson7750]

Everyone keeps saying wow they played all the instruments live! Shows what the musical landscape is like when real instruments become something novel.

[@sydsurfman012]

i agree, great voice, needs a real live band!!!!!! outstanding song, passed the test of time!!

[@robertpetruzziello3130]

Ivan is the master

[@GUITARTIME2024]

If I don't see a dwarf this very goddam minute!

[@Abe-rz1nm]

If you'd told me 40 years ago that I'd be listening to this again on a 'laptop' on a thing called "KZbin" and STILL love it :D

[@donaldalbano6484]

he's a good dancer, saw him live

[@christinegreen9708]

Pure brilliance, i loved the video in the 80’s

[@AMSRMX16]

The bands timing skills are incredible

[@amankarra8961]

Guys, you're being harsh. This is a phenomenal classic

[@notaplic8158]

The song was a phenomenal classic but the people on the synth things ruined it. Ivan still saved it the best he could tho but even he couldnt save this shipwreck sadly

[@ShikiraPressley]

🎉love Ivan he is simply forever I was just a child when he sung this beautiful number yet something so enigmatic and unforgettable about his human presence and meaningful voice that will last me always ❤❤❤❤❤

[@bobbyw1510]

Over time it became a non goofy song....this is some serious rock n roll here!!

[@POLETATODD]

64 years old?are you kidding me?he is so gorgeous 🥰

[@CLSGL]

Ivan could’ve just done this alone to a backtrack and it would’ve been 1000x better. The guy still kills it

[@bobbyw1510]

He is legend!

[@synthonaplinth5980]

I dunno, at least the keys player in the middlke is ATTEMPTING to play the main keyboard riff. They don't do that nowadays.

[@MasterJediDude]

Love this! I challenge any band to play in a small studio like this and come out as good. Great job!

[@mojorisin8368]

Playing the correct notes is always a good start.

[@magnuszetterqvist5936]

Coughing in the beginning is the best. Love the song!👍😘🇸🇪

[@andreashering875]

Hä ?

[@stevielambert8262]

As amazingly mad and wonderful as the 80s version. Completely bonkers. I love it ❤

[@cheriecooper2623]

I have absolutely loved Men Without Hats since I first heard and saw them play on Citadel Hill in Halifax, N.S. in the 90s and was simply awestruck by them when they played in the Misty Moon on Barrington St. Halifax. I was standing directly in front of lead singer Ivan whom I've loved and adored since. I love his expressions his quirkiness his dancing absolutely everything about him and the band and I have almost all of their albums. He's also friends with my brother Craig Brown Musician/Drummer who was with me at the Misty Moon. I hope he and his mates are doing well. I'm listening to them still and more so since I'm in hospital likely through Christmas. Lots of love and Merry Christmas to you xoxo

[@Jolland]

Imperfections make a live song. This was great!

[@2760ade]

I agree. Proves it's live also. Though that keyboard player only had to play octaves, and she still cocked it up!😂😂

[@christinegreen9708]

His voice is superb, no different from it was in 1980’s

[@Thermenvoxx91]

Safety Dance, the best song of the 80´s!!!!

Nah... Don't you want me baby is the best one.

Is it me or does he really look like Christopher Lambert and he still sounds just like the record and epic use of backing vocals so impressed. Love this song

[@benkay1026]

This is my favorite one from that whole decade. Just epic. Would do anything, anything, to sing along and dance to this live but they’ve never been to my country.

nice to see you guys (ivan, heidi,Tracy and all the band)....come back to Peru!!!....hugs!!!

[@bankconsultant]

Wow, sounds like a Fisher Price keyboard for kids. I thought most tv show appearances, especially live, are done with playback. This is one of those times they should have!

[@cynthiasuzanne]

I thought it was great! He covered his own song and is just as cool as he was back in the day. 💕. Love

[@a.arciniegas8271]

Can’t stop laughing. Excelent comment.😂😂😂😂

I liked the keyboard, seemed like someone was actually playing an instrument

[@patriciamedaris8552]

The remix version players made for World of Warcraft boss Haegan the Unclean is one of my favorite songs of all time. It's still played in raids today, 18 years later.

[@LordToasterOven]

ivan is fine. but the rest of the band...

[@LordToasterOven]

true, but ivan still got it.

[@Fr34k1ng0ut]

Yeah. I feel sorry for him. He deserves a better band.

[@LordToasterOven]

yes he does

Dude, this comment made my day. Read it to my wife and we can't stop laughing.

[@calebfuller4713]

Safe to say, if the original song used the synth's built in arpegiattor or one of those early "still tighter than modern MIDI" sequencers to play a riff, best stick with that, and don't try to replicate it manually, live, at 7:00am, on national television...
