I must be weird then. Cause I LOVE THIS. Nothing wrong with it. I have a habit of analyzing music almost right away.

[@melaniebrown4660]

Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis at their finest!! You can hear them all through this song!

[@labratamber]

Love their song Fascination

[@ajs41]

That was the song that Jam and Lewis heard in 1983 and were so impressed that they decided they wanted to work with the Human League.

[@Guy-lo3ld]

I saw them live in concert twice. Once was with Culture Club, and the other time was with A Flock of Seagulls and Belinda Carlisle. Yes, it was very eighties newvwave! 😊

[@anglosaxon5874]

Yeah I saw them in Leeds once. It went on for ages. I forgot they had so many hits at the time. lol

[@marycrawley3293]

Love all if those you mentioned! I bet that was Awesome! 😎

[@deegomez2089]

Love this song 💚 Another group who reminds me of HL...check out The Thompson Twins, Hold Me Now 🎶🎵

[@Arnoldman-ep9gw]

Someone black definitely produced this

[@marycrawley3293]

Yes! they have some great songs too, I remember from back in the day. ❤

[@blainecole5452]

My personal favorite from The Human League. Cheers

[@user-hs5hc7wk5j]

Beautiful song and people in this group and deep lyrics what more can they do? That's masterpiece..

[@treada1583]

I can remember when this song came out........nice

[@fuzzylogics139]

Yeah this song is indeed an atmosphere. Captivating.

[@GodLovesComics]

Fenom, if this is one of your favorite love songs (surely in the same rotation as Spandau Ballet's "True"), you would definitely like "Avalon" and "More Than This", both released by Roxy Music in 1982. Both have the same flawless production and silky smooth vocals with great melodies.

[@suecoombs6993]

One of my favorite groups! ❤

[@melissafernandez79]

"I was human, too"❤

[@tiffanyspencer2782]

I just realized how many songs (the music) jimmy jam & Terry wrote & produced so many songs/artists that I didn't know. Now, I can definitely hear them. New Edition, Bobby Brown, Janet, Force M.D.s., etc.. I don't know how I missed this. You know when you hear them now.

[@randychampion184]

They won the Grammy Award for Producers of the Year in '87 for a reason: they were on fire in 1986-1987.

[@maha77]

Seriously love you guys, one of my favorite reaction channels. Love your mature, honest , real, down-to-earth reactions. Please react to and early 80's pioneering synth classic: *YAZOO - DONT GO* and/or *YAZOO - SITUATION*

[@gesundheit602]

Mirror Man is another fantastic song by Human League that I hope y’all will react to one day. 🙂

[@alexioverdo5225]

A very good single with beautiful vocals,music lyrics production.A well deserved hit.Video also matches all the song's charm.Still have the 12 inch from 1986.

[@brandonsimmons1695]

I want to go back to the 80s

[@_Lisa_S_]

These lyrics .. touche`!!

[@dinholondres]

My favourite HL singles. ❤

[@keithroberts4952]

Their second American number one single after don't you want me! They had a third American top ten hit called Fascination. Great, innovative band!

[@kenwilmarth68]

Through Tears for Fears in there.

[@curestruck]

Just what I’m looking for👏 go boys go❤

[@rachels.8673]

Olliwoodda had me 😂 but overall I like the song and the video was so…so…❤ the 80s New Wave 🎶

[@thecentralscrutinizer5730]

A Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis production!

[@AW11-e4h]

Banger 🤘

[@christinewaide5249]

Yes! Perfect description of the way she said it! Haha! It’s a good song though. But nothing compares to “Don’t You Want Me”.

[@Jen-in-Texas]

This is a really good song, and I think the somber tone was because of the subject and how the song just “feels”. Sorry Ollie - love you but I think you missed the mark on this one. It would be repetitive if it were a longer song, but it was fairly short so it doesn’t seem repetitive to me. Love your reactions none the less!

[@tonyporenshenko425]

Great band

[@wildmandon1]

This reminds me a lot like The S.O.S. Band

[@BrianSATX79]

I love the album Crash 🙂 it's a pleasant slice of slick, fun, 80s pop. Love is All That Matters I's my favorite track, it has a nice anthemic message.

[@angelagreen778]

I always thought it funny a woman sings 'I'm just a man' lol. Still a great band with Great Tunes!

[@stephaniewade2973]

She says "I am just human"

[@NoCreamedCorn]

Great 80s pop! I was searching for some Depeche Mode reactions on your channel and didn’t find anything. I’d love it if you checked out anything by them. Some recommendations: Stripped, Blasphemous Rumours, World In My Eyes, Halo, Clean, Strangelove… so many good songs from them.

[@MightMouse2174]

This song crossed over into the r&b charts at # 3

[@margemacloud]

Love the Human League but Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis' production is what makes this song.

[@Rogers_Ranger]

this is right after the london invasion it was a weird time

[@Lfg117]

The rainy day vibe of this music vid was bc of hip hop legends JimmyJam & TerryLewis. The stiff posture bit was by design.

[@ArchAngeLDeux]

Firstly before making a reaction, please do some research.... about the song (lyrics) and context.... otherwise it will be a waste of time... 80's was my era, I love everything about it, and it pissed me off seeing you guys whining about the song...

[@R777-RLM]

I think it's a great song. I do prefer their original stuff, because I like that "weird" New Wave music.

[@larryhunter7368]

The knowledge of infidelity is like Chinese Water Torrtcher, constantly drip, drip, dripping to the front of your thoughts. Unless, you’re a psycho like me. My conscious died at birth. lol

[@Hedriks]

I like Human League.... this is probably my fav, but I liked a lot of their songs. I think Britiain was so good on the music scene in the 80s. Jamiroquai, Sade, Culture Club, Human League, Style Council, Simply Red, Wham......

[@GooniesNeverSayDie1980]

*_None of the three_* noticed that after Joanne makes her spoken-word cheating confession to Philip, you can distinctly hear Joanne's voice singing with Philip during the chorus, before that you only heared Philip's voice during the chorus.

[@marycrawley3293]

Not that Americans didn’t, but a lot of great artists came from the UK. If you haven’t yet, please check out a UK band and their biggest song, Big Country by Big Country. It’s a Great song from the 80’s too.❤

[@peterwaters8338]

i feel 'dis song is v alexander o'neal like; his ballads; v similar to his first lp, Jam and Lewis also made w him.

[@Abri412]

The only other Human League song I remember other than the two you have done is "Obsession". There are probably more, but I really only know them from radio. I like them fine, but I'm not a real fan who knows much about them.

[@MojoPin1983]

@Abri412 Obsession is by Animotion.

[@peterwaters8338]

he was like a "robot" as a contrast for being "Human".......irony ; clever i believe

[@VinzClorthokeymasterofGozer]

Yeah, she came over while you were gone. But I’m only human baby. Please forgive me. It’s ok, I was human too.

[@randychampion184]

You guys should react to some Pet Shop Boys: specifically Domino Dancing, and of course West End Girls.

[@sharongraham4256]

Love Action next please

[@peterwaters8338]

same keyboard sounds as O'neal's "sunshine" from his 2nd LP......

[@dncilu]

olliwoodda didn't understand that the video clip is interpreted in this serious way, because the song talks about a drama that a couple is experiencing. how did he want to be entertained??? are you serious ?

[@ArchAngeLDeux]

Yes I felt the same way too... "reactors" did not do justice to the song...oh well...

[@Janemaryy420]

Check out ABC... poison arrow....or The look of love...cool shiiiiiit !!!

[@user-bl7hk5ei9u]

Can you reaction to simply red it's only love. Please

[@OctavioXtravaganza70]

This melody was recycled by Terry and Jimmy Jam for New Edition and Janet Jackson’s two hits… they made three bangers out of the one melody… CAN YOU STAND THE RAIN and COME BACK TO ME …

[@Lfg117]

Lead vocalist for HumanLeague nvr lip-syncs . HL's 1981 🎶Don'tYouWantMeBaby🎶 hit jumped off the entire genre of BritSynthPop music. #HistoryMaking

[@barriehull7076]

Say what you see olli, no shame in that.

[@nycsue]

Who cares about the video? I mean really, 80's videos on the whole are pretty terrible. They were just starting out with MTV after all. Olli, that wasn't meant to be rap she was talking and why do you care so much about his back?🤣 As for the song, I could take it or leave it. It isn't bad, but not one that I seek out.

[@christinahilt2978]

This isn’t my favorite of Human League. It’s just OK. I prefer “Don’t You Want Me” and “(Keep Feeling) Fascination.”
