The singer is Roland Gift,a talented young black man.He was worried he would become the stereotypical "musician"aka,drugs,booze, women and scandal,so he dropped out for a normal life before it could happen to him

[@E.Kim_Style]

This was a big hit in the `80s!! MTV used to play it all the time...when MTV actually played music. 2 other really nice songs by them "Suspicious Minds" ( the Elvis song )...& "Ever Fallen In Love". Check those two out!!

[@dannycasson1551]

You guys are right. The 80’s were the best. I was in my 20’s and now looking back, I feel fortunate to have been a part of it. I Want My MTV!

[@TheRetroManRandySavage]

My step father was a friend of the band. I remember him going to launch party for this album in Kingston upon hull, east Yorkshire. Had to have been around 1989.

[@lawrencekelli]

Cool.

[@TheRetroManRandySavage]

@@lawrencekelli the band was his claim to fame. 😂

[@lawrencekelli]

@@TheRetroManRandySavage I can imagine ..lol.

[@zigman63]

I had a record shop in Ireland in the late 80s and this album was a massive seller along with Phil Collins But seriously and Chris Rea Road to hell. Great time for vinyl.

[@TheRetroManRandySavage]

@@zigman63 I miss the old record shops. I used to love going to our price records on a Saturday. Turns out i got the story wrong. It wasn't for the album's launch party. It was Roland's party that he had for leaving the band.

[@surlechapeau]

Asia & BJ, members Andy Cox and David Steele, were from the Beat(The English Beat). You will love their "Save It For Later", "I Confess" and "Mirror in the Bathroom"! Quite a voice on Roland Gift here.

[@JaneDoe369B]

Oooo, Mirror in the Bathroom is a favorite.

[@RonRezendes]

Abso-effing-lutely!

[@garymcatear822]

Andy Cox's sister Ruth was one of my tutors at college in Glasgow way back in the mid 80's. Nice woman.

[@swfcocs1]

"I just can't stop it " by The Beat ( I'm a Brit so they're The Beat to me, "English " was added by their record company just in the US) was actually the first LP I bought as a young boy and what an album it is : "mirror in the bathroom " "Stand down Margaret "hands off she's mine " . etc etc Two tone music was also important socially in that it was proudly multi racial at a time in the UK when the fascist National Front was trying to stir up racial hatred. Two tone as a whole was fantastic music with a powerful and important message

[@nationaltrails9585]

Their other #1 song was Good Thing (my favorite) which followed this one. :)

[@ked7426]

Love this, its a pity you didn't have the video Roland Gift the singer, I'm just mesmerised on the mouth movement he uses. They had lot of great songs Johnny Come Home, Good Thing, I'm Not the Man I Used To Be, Suspicious Minds. 🤗❤

[@degsbabe]

Well, i just had to tick and get you off that no.13 buddy. Great song tho. And yeah, Johnny come on home....

[@dannjp75]

NGL, he was a good looking fella.. 😂

[@paulncolo]

Their take of Suspicious Minds is sublime…

[@happymethehappyone8300]

Their Name Comes From A 1960 Classic Movie Called "All The Fine Young Cannibals"

[@user-eo7hg4pf8i]

Which comes from the 1960 book 'All the Fine Young Cannibals' by American author Rosamond Marshall.

[@happymethehappyone8300]

@@user-eo7hg4pf8i True dat alley cat 😺

[@raycewilliams3300]

I can remember hearing this song on the radio. Everyone stopped doing whatever they were doing.. and started groooooooovin' . Such an iconic sound. They had a couple of hits... then they just sort of faded away. Someone must have sampled parts of this song. Take care......

[@mharris7380]

"I'm Not The Man I Used To Be" is my favourite track of FYC, but they've done some other great ones, "Blue", "Funny How Love Is", "Ever Fallen In Love", "Good Thing", "It's OK, It's Alright", "Don't Look Back", "I'm Not Satisfied", "Johnny Come Home" They did a 2nd part to Johnny Come Home called "Johnny Takes A Trip", which was on the remix album of "The Raw and the Cooked", called "The Raw and the Remix" The Two members Cox and Steele also produced some house music, one track of which was called "Tired Of Being Pushed Around" which they released under the name "Two Men A Drum Machine And A Trumpet"

[@John_Chu]

"I'm Not The Man I Used to Be" is also my favorite song by them. Roland Gift really comes close to the sort of soul singer he imagines in that song.

[@mharris7380]

@@John_Chu His voice really suits the overall feeling of the song.

[@Dej24601]

Love them doing “Good Thing” and “Johnny Come Home!” 🎶

[@3DJapan]

The singer is Roland Gift. I recommend "Good Thing" next.

[@Stuart267]

The original & definitive version its Roland has a unique voice that suits the lyrics other singers can't measure up. Its literally been covered almost 30 times by the likes of Sting, Tom Jones, Dolly Parton & Kermit the Frog for Christ sake

[@jollyj3285]

80s were the most fun of my life and music was the best!!!!!!!!!

[@jaquettajones]

FYC are SO MUCH FUN TO WATCH - You really have to watch one of their videos. They also do a FINE COVER of Elvis' SUSPICIOUS MINDS :-D

[@Elerad]

Good song. Fine Young Cannibals were a brief burst of enjoyment back in the eighties, then they vanished. Roland Gift is a talented, fun dude with a very unique voice.

[@archygirl1750]

The 80s were the best. This song was so popular (for a good reason), and the band name is the best.

[@frugalseverin2282]

The English Beat was a much better band, check out their 3 albums. General Public also spun off from The Beat. Give a listen to 'Save It for Later', 'Doors of Your Heart', 'I Confess', 'Hands Off She's Mine', 'Too Nice to Talk To' and their cover of 'Tears of a Clown'.

[@blastingweevil2968]

Best thing is thier songs Still sound as fresh today as they did back then Awsome music......

[@kylesage-clontz]

Yeah, unless you were raised by wolves in the forest, you've heard this song multiple times (or at least the hook.)

[@jessegreen6138]

The song was released in 1989. The Fine Young Cannibals formed in1984. Both of my children are 80's babies. Thank you for the video reaction Asia and BJ.

[@annengvall9003]

80’s music is the best! Great reaction!

[@paulrietveld7949]

Pity you couldn't the videoclip. Fantastic dancing. By the way: the eighties were everything but happy. Glad we had thse great music to pull us through. Crisis everywhere you looked but on the dancefloor......

[@Zebred2001]

This song always reminded me of I've Been Thinking About You by London Beat.

[@desiderious1]

Great reaction. Fun facts about FYC: She Drives Me Crazy reached the #1 spot on Billboard music charts in several countries in 1989. The album it came from, The Raw and The Cooked also reached #1 and also included another #1 hit for them, Good Thing. I really think you should react to Good Thing; you would enjoy it. Also, of note, lead vocalist, Roland Gift, is a respected actor in his home country of Great Britain. Source of info: Wikipedia Music.

[@Kausion]

BJ-"You drive my crazy tho" Asia-"I know"casually like its perfectly fine to do that 😂😂😂

[@andrew348]

When I was in basic training our drill sergeant trolled us by playing this song, all night long by Lionel Richie, and Higher love by Steve Winwood on a loop for weeks and weeks. Now I find them oddly nostalgic.

[@somersetcace1]

The hook in this song is pure evil. It gets in your head and wont leave! Soon you'll start changing the lyrics in your mind and after several weeks you'll need therapy! More like this song drives me crazy! 😂

[@Uriahjw]

This was a good one too. The banter between you two are great. Makes me think of my parents. They were the best of friends and you could just see the love in their banter. They were both quick whitted so their conversations were so funny at times.

[@krislaight5781]

Another great uk 🇬🇧 band

[@jackasswhiskyandpintobeans9344]

You should have reacted to the vid of this song!

[@commenceenavoirmarre]

Their Good Thing song is really good too, and my favorite cover of Suspicious Minds of Elvis is by them too! Nobody react to it unfortunately (the Elvis cover, or other songs by them)

[@happymethehappyone8300]

[@bugvswindshield]

when I first heard this song on the radio i was all "wow, these guys are going to be big!" nope. not sure why. Great song, great sound!!!

[@rdobery]

I remember when this came out and I loved it. They had a music video where they were dressed like a motorcycle gang in New York. Then they all get on these little customized Vespa scooters and ride around. They looked cool asf. I can't even find that video now even though I keep looking for it.

[@a-dub]

The video to "Good Thing" I think is what you are thinking about.

[@rdobery]

@@a-dub thanks

It was in the movie Hitch

I love that song, but I have to tell, 2Cellos is famous for their hard rock covers, ACDC cover Thunderstruck video will blow your mind, it has 232million views please😊

[@throwabrick]

My favourite track by FYC is "I'm Not The Man I Used To Be", it is both groovy and melancholy, it's a song that sounds like it could have been a cover of a Motown track or something (edit: but it isn't!... before anyone else tries to correct me), it has a really classic feel.

[@alistairmcdougall8390]

It's an original song by the band written by Roland

[@throwabrick]

@@alistairmcdougall8390 I know, I was just saying it sounds like a classic song.

[@mikefetterman6782]

This was the year I graduated high school The 80s were very "POPPY" and the hair metal bands got old after Def Leppard and the Scorpions. The 90s and the 70s were more similar. The 80s were a lot like the 1950s.

[@chrisa4695]

Check out their hit “Good Thing”. 80’s hit with a 60’s Motown feel.

Hi again. You two are so adorable together! If you enjoyed this bit of English music history, have a listen to Ian Dury and the Blockheads. Very Funky! HIT ME WITH YOUR RHYTHM STICK, SEX AND DRUGS AND ROCKNROLL, I WANNA BE STRAIGHT and my personal favourite REASONS TO BE CHEERFUL part 3. They were a fantastic band. The lead singer had polio as a child which is why he looks a little odd, but he and his band were seriously amazing musicians. Thanks again for being you. Nici
