I'm 70. This song (unexpectedly) was running through my head. I started dancing in this little room I inhabit. So then I sat down, googled the title, which brought me to here and this video. And after listening (and for the first time ever seeing the video) I'm going to replay it. And haha, I don't know if my old ass will get up to Uncle Willie across the floor; I'll probably just rock in my chair.

I remember the first time I heard this song. It was the summer of 1983, and I was just a young,14 year old girl. I turned 15 that August. My Mom and Dad and I had brought some of my cousins with us on a trip to Disneyland. I remember that night in Disneyland, we had stopped to eat at one of the restaurants that had an outdoor dining area. Right across from where we were was this place where they had live music and dancing, and there was a rock band performing. I don't know the name of the band, but I know it wasn't Human League. It was a local band, I'm pretty sure. One of the songs they played was "Keep Feeling Fascination." I had never heard the song until then, and sometime later, I found out it was by Human League. I absolutely loved the song when I heard it for the first time that night, and it's still a favorite to this day. Everytime I hear it, it brings back memories of that night in Disneyland. The 80's was a fun time to be a teenager.

His voice was way too deep for most pop, yet he worked with what he had. My voice is the same way.

You wouldn't know anyway. you weren't there. Urkel was end of the 80's, and when this came out it was skating rinks, not dance floors.

[@johnalberta5436]

I'm 50 myself and I grew up in the 80's and I loved that era of music. It was the greatest time to grow up in with so many different styles of music going on in that decade which was truly amazing with so many great artists, groups and songs. Definitely Human League defined the new wave era with this song "Fascination" and of course "Don't you want me" every time I hear these songs I remember the good times of the 80's it was a fun era to live in and I miss those times very much!

[@therealsoulproduct]

I discovered this band and this song as a pre-teen in the early 90's. I had heard "Don't You Want Me" & "Human", and those were alright. But once I heard this they won me over. Their greatest hits cassette ended up being the first album I ever bought. Been a huge fan ever since.

[@nutster9000]

The Human League are just the tip of the 80's gold mine iceberg! Formed at the same time as the League check out Poeme Electronique - Echoes Fade & their modern incarnation Twins Natalia also influenced by 80's electro pop look up anything by Marsheaux.

About 13 when this came out. I loved the backbeats from these Brits. The Brits knew how to take American Rock and Roll and in many cases, take it a step above. My trip to Ireland and Great Britain enlightetened me. I love The English! From a 50 year old American Boy from California.

[@theshadow7379]

I totally share your point of view. This music was totally amazing for teenagers like us. Especially the way bands were creating songs and melodies boosted by emergence of synthetizers and beat box. English bands were my favorite too ! From a 50 years old frenchman ;-)

Sorry about the 80s Brits weren't into American Rock and Roll, they were into American R&B (just like the Brits from the 60s were into American Blues). Ever heard of Northern Soul. Human League are from Sheffield and are a product of Northern Soul. As for this song, it is an homage to Sly and The Family Stone. The "Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey" part and different male/female lead voices are straight from them...

Mom & Dad had IRISH names O'GRADY - KELLY. Mom side gave us kids 14 first cousins. All 8 kids had Freckels on our face. Freckels in IRELAND are known as ANGEL KISSES. Our Family loves our IRISH Heritage Irish people have lots of funny Myths. Like when we die we come back as Vampires, Boys don't like Red Hair girls, this one is true Red Hair IRISH & Scottish people need to be carefull in the sun.
