I'm in this video! The tickets for the recording at the Hammersmith Odeon were given away by his fan club, run by his wife at the time I recall, and in those pre-internet days you had to send in a stamped addressed envelope and back it came with 2 tickets. At the recording he played a shortened concert set then played this song 3 or 4 times as they recorded it. Fun times for the 15 year old me!

I started training as a classical singer around the time this song came out, and am now revisiting Nik, Howard Jones and other great musicians of the '80s with an Opera singers ear.. It strikes me that the reason I was so fond of Nik's music back then was because he has a true poet's ability to write, and a classical musician's musicality! I therefore love and appreciate his music more now than I did back then. Bravo!! (and sorry I missed the gig at Hampton Pool last summer). xxx
@eightiesmusic1984 Жыл бұрын
Great comment. It is striking how many of the songs from the eighties lend themselves to classical arrangements with an orchestra. Nik is a case in point, with his Eighties Classical performance from a few years ago ( on You Tube). His songs are intricate and quite complex in their structure, very inventive. I have been a fan since 1984 and still think his first two albums are fantastic. I saw him live in 1999 at Shepherds Bush Empire and 2012 in Liverpool; both times he was excellent as were his band. I also think his own interest in prog rock ( not necessarily a genre I am into, except for Marillion) explains the 'architecture' of his songs. Howard Jones is also one of my favourite artists. As I am sure you will know he was classically trained at the Royal Northern College of music. His modesty has always been a hallmark- I saw an interview recently where he mentioned playing the piano before he hit the big time, but not that he trained at such a prestigious institution. Typical of the person he is.First and foremost, I enjoy listening to music more than analysing it too much, but Rick Beato has a channel on You Tube where he sometimes de-constructs a song to show how its component parts make up the finished article. Nik Kershaw's music would be a good study!

I'm 50 and still love Nik's songs. I had them all on vinyl and cassette in the 80's. The sound quality on our B&O 5500 was amazing. I still have it since my Mum passed but sadly the speakers need attention and it's a costly job lol. Just CD's now. My son who's 21 loves 80's music. They cheered up a few years of what I now realise was teenage depression and got me through my Mum and Dad's horrible divorce. Thanks Nik

I was 8 years old & when Nik Kershaw released this ear catchy song which I always enjoy whenever it is played on BBC Radio 2. Nik was a great song-writer & had a knack of writing an ear worm of a tune which just sticks in you head! I did like his so 1980's mullet hair style he had back in the day. No mobile phones, social media , internet or silly selfies taken back in 1983. People just enjoying the music & having a great time. Such were the 1980's!

Here its me a 22 years old guy discovering this song just now in January of 2022. I am just fascinated how people looks so happy in the audience. I think today there is a lot of sadness in the world. I am young and watching the concert from new artist its so weird i feel like nobody is enjoying the music in now days, the audience just point the phone to the stage and record it to watch later or upload on social media. And watching this video feel like those people in the audience was feeling like this would be the last concert of their lives. They are really enjoying the music and smiling. Anyway i am happy thay i find this song, i really like it.

I have to confess that I am not a pop music fanatic by any stretch of the imagination, rather a classical music one instead but I do like Nik Kershaw & his songs like this one which I believe was released in 1983 & not to mention The Riddle which was released a year later in 1984 & a song I think is the best & Wouldn't It Be Good? & the rest of his songs! The 1980's was a great decade indeed & Nik certainly had a gift in writing songs with ear catching tunes which stick in one's head for a long time! He had a great head of hair back then too! In closing who spotted any mobile phones in the audience?!
