This is a highly original, brilliant song, where all the pieces come together.

[@stenwald]

This came out when I was 4. I’d always leap up and dance to it. Now I’m 41 and find myself saying “You just don’t get pop songs like this anymore!”

[@michealkelliher8428]

A truly superb 👌 excellent song, it's very 80's, but with a cutting edge style. Very underrated band, the Square & the Circle is an excellent album. Brings back very happy memories of when I was only 9 years of age, going to the Listowel Races back in 1985 in absolute awe of the colour, flashes of joy on the amusements, and sadly of people that are no longer with us. Ireland was in an economic recession at the rime, but it was a magical time being a child. The funny thing is, we had nothing back then, but we had everything. Today, we've everything, but really, we've nothing.

[@corym8358]

I love it. The 80's are all a blur. An incredible awesome blur.

[@NSGrendel]

I mean, it was pretty horrific for a lot of us. But I'm glad you liked it.

Was 17 when it came out , went to woolies to buy the single. Liked it then but having not heard it for so many years I appreciate what a great song it is now even moreAs music always does , it transports you back in time and brings back so many memories like nothing else does.

[@rsmith7912]

Brilliant band. They should have been much bigger. Every track on the first album is top notch pop. I would recommend to anyone who hasn't heard 'The Circle & the Square' to search it out. It's a goodun!!

[@michealkelliher8428]

Brillant album. Coming out with a sarcastic, political song like this at the time was brave about American foreign policy and it's influences. The Style Council did similar.

[@steinarvilnes3954]

I think it was one of those unlucky band that started top have success exactly when the kind of music they made started to go out of fashion.

[@michealkelliher8428]

@@steinarvilnes3954 Spot on! Steiner. You are 100% correct there. Good observation 👍

[@roberthaynes8830]

Wholeheartedly agree. I love all their albums, but this one will always have a special place in my heart.

[@rjjcms1]

They had a very big UK hit single with Lean on Me in late summer/early autumn 1985,then a medium-sized hit with this song in late 1986.

[@semperterra3235]

I vaguely remembered this song from back in its day, the "yeah buddy yeah" and "hoola hoola" bits are what I remembered, I was able to recall enough of the lyrics to find it on a Google search, although the novelty wore off before it had finished. 😆

[@4282richard]

I was 10yrs old, my 1st year of high school when this was released and it's just as catchy now as it was then.

A song that I remember from my childhood - I'm so glad I found it again, this and "Lean on Me", which was another that threw me back to the mid 80s. "Where's the peace and understanding?" "Go drum, go - dance round and round"" Relevant then, more relevant now.
