Reacting to Kajagoogoo - Too Shy SWEET!

Oh sweet Kajagoogoo, where o where did you get that name.
Kajagoogoo - • Kajagoogoo - Too Shy (...

[@shanecreech9914]

That bass intro is just epic!!!

[@jonnno2439]

I am so glad you reacted to this great song. And that bass line by Nick Beggs, Awesome.

[@nakadai4444]

Yes, I fond of this song so wonderfull Bass, effects and electronic drumms, are great too, I Miss this sound too much, that s may Decade the 80s absolutely....

[@RB747domme]

Nick Beggs is an old friend, I wish I had kept in touch. At least he's gone on to have a successful solo career.

[@mohamedbenferha3665]

Badass bass line

[@JedHead77]

This song was produced by Duran Duran’s Nick Rhodes!

[@philherman8633]

Limahl had The Never Ending Story. Classic song and nostalgic movie from my 80’s years.

[@jennifermitchell1]

As a few others have mentioned, the lead singer Limahl had a solo hit with the theme song to The Neverending Story.

[@topoisomerace]

The intro to this song is great. It reminds me of how New Order would sometimes take 2-3 minutes before bringing in the lyrics to a song, and in a way it's just the song hyping up itself.

[@xanajak]

The song was kind of cheesy in real time but holds up well 35 years later.

[@therealpaperheart]

Here's some trivia when this song came out in 1983 and was in the top 10, Duran Duran's "Is there something I should know" was also in the top 10, nick rhodes also produced this hit by Kajagoogoo, this was their only big hit here in America together. I still listen to this song even today.

[@bigguy130]

An interesting bit of trivia I heard about for this music video is the waitress portrayed in the video was Dennis Miller's(from SNL fame) wife.

[@gsadventures678]

The lead singer's name is Limahl. He sang the theme song for the movie The Never Ending Story. This was a big hit after Kajagoogoo. Love you Cat.

[@tonyfromfrance5595]

Bonjour Hello from Paris France to you, i remember kajagoogoo song in the 80''s in all TV programs, in all night clubs, you bring me to the 80's,suddenly i was 16 years old.

I’m 44 and I thunk the 80s was the best period ! I know what you mean , 80s music has gotten me through some tough times , especially this year. It’s like therapy for me. I just found your channel and subscribed. Keep up the good work .

[@cherylb5680]

Limahl's great vocals plus Nick Beggs AMAZING baseline....it just doesn't get any better! ❤Totally 80's❤

[@nuummuun]

Cat Sarai, in 1983 Limahl (the singer) was fired by the other band members and KGG went downhill, but in 2003, the producers of VH1's "Bands Reunited" show successfully reunited them. It was wonderful. Take a look: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWTNeWyimJitjq8. Thanks from Rio-Brazil

[@Thebrainymonkey]

Yeah, Ooh to be aah, Kaja-goo-goo, Big Apple and of course Limahl's solo hit fromThe Never-ending story soundtrack. I remember my sister being devastated when they split up in 1983. They of course reformed. See if you can find the MTV Bands Reunited episode where they try and get them all together in the same room, I think it's on YT somewhere. Nick Beggs is now a legendary session bass and Chapman stick player, who's played with everyone who's anyone. I must have seen them live about 15 years ago in a nightclub in Swansea. I put some videos up on my channel. Though it was videoed with a very early iPhone, or more than likely an old Nokia phone.

[@Mind-your-own-beeswax]

Very good live band. Nick Beggs is a top class bass player as well as Chapman Stick. Limahl ( Chris Hamill ) and Jez Strode are from London, Steve Agnew Stuart McNeil and Nick Beggs are from Leighton Buzzard. Other hits include Oo to be Ah, Hang On Now, Big Apple, The Lions Mouth

[@johnraspberry2269]

Kajagoogoo, A British rock band from Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire, England. they were active in the 80's. look for Nick Beggs on youtube, he was their singer along with Lemahl

[@uricbonser5446]

Kajagoogoo was a one hit wonder with "Too Shy" in 1983. After the "Too Shy" mania past, Limahl (lead singer) was kicked out of the group by the other four members (jealousy driven). Limahl went on to have a solo hit with "Neverending Story" in 1985. The group reformed in 2003 (with Limahl) for a 20 year reunion tour and played together for another 7 or 8 years before breaking up again.

[@trapkat8213]

BS. Limahl had, as is typical of singers, a huge ego and he just didn't fit well with the rest of the group.

[@uricbonser5446]

"Kajagoogoo" is a name coined phonetically from , the first sounds that many infants make.

[@andykenny5674]

They were actually from a wonderfully named town in the U.K. called Leighton Buzzard. They had a few hits back in the 80s, made a terrible decision to sack their lead singer Chris Hamill (anagram Limahl), but still had a few hits afterwards too. I saw them at The Arts Centre in Poole, and they could do it live as well. Their album was called White Feathers, and had quite a few good songs on it - well worth a listen Cat. Try “Turn Your Back On Me” with Nick Beggs singing the lead. He was the bass player but had a good voice too.

[@davidlegaria]

One of the best bass lines ever. Always loved this song.

[@marty3236]

I was about 12 13 back then .love the 80s best decade

[@crystaltitus1391]

He also sings the lead vocal in The Neverending Story tune❤❤

[@markcastellanos9678]

This song is Contagious

[@glastonbury4304]

Finally a Kajagoogoo song...do "Never Ending Story"

[@stevearnott7693]

Limahl did Neverending Story as a solo artist. Limahl being anagram of his surname Hamill as in Christopher Hamill. He did the song in English and in French and I believe it was a Giorgio Moroder song. Kajagoogoo were effectively a one hit wonder.

[@glastonbury4304]

[@Rob-29266]

This track and Ooh to Be Ah are amongst my personal faves but they did do some really good tracks! Can’t understand why they sacked Limahl! Not the best idea by some of the band and I think they lived to regret it. Good documentary on KZbin called Bands Reunited by VH-1 about these guys and they have done other ones on some more 80s bands be worth you checking out Cat .

[@cebusam7545]

As a kid we were shoved out the door all day too. 7 days a week. My mom sent me to church 6 days a week. Bus came about every day during summer. Public pool was 25 cents and had to collect coke bottles at 5 cents each to get money. But we were fit and not fat. Always on the go!

Miss the eighties !!!

[@rover72]

just found your channel. as much as i enjoy seeing the younger generations discover this music, it's just as great to see someone my own age (but, goodness, you seemed to have aged well!) just grooving along and discussing the fantastic music of our youth. that being said ... if i close my eyes on this one, i can go right back to the summer of '83. i'm 11 and i'm outside in the driveway painting my bicycle matte black and drawing on it with gold and silver metallic paint pens. randomness, pt. 1: the girl in the video, Carolyn Espley, has been married to Dennis Miller for over 30 years randomness, pt. 2: at just one second into the video, there's a Michael Baldwin sighting. he's the older fellow with the beard. he was a designer on many British 80's videos and cameos in at least 20 of them.

[@davebirch9606]

Limahl was an anagram of the lead singers surname Hamill, their other hit was "life in the big apple"

It was just called Big Apple

Cat, you must check out a band from the 80's called The Associates". They had a few big hits in the UK and the singers voice is absolutely amazing! their 3 major hits were: Party Fears Two 18 Carat Love Affair Club Country - my favourite and really shows off his vocal range. If you like these, the hit LP they has was called "Sulk". not a bad track on it!

[@dittanyrose1110]

Party fears two is in my top ten songs ever

[@mexicanson]

Oh, my God! I absolutely love The Associations! Billy's voice was so alluring and operatic. Club Country is definitely my favorite song, with Those First Impressions being a close second. She should definitely react to those songs.
