That rhythm track is in my head forever.Magical.

[@lessevdoolbretsim]

That thing the science dude said, "As a known scientist, it would be a bit surprising if she blinded ME with science!", which is in the record, makes total sense in context now.

[@nyokoSalome]

well! ;) that makes total sense! ;0

[@godzillas6301]

sciense dude was ...... drum roll Magnus Pyke

[@MrRugbyloosehead]

The 80's what a decade!

[@robertarnold7187]

He is a musical genius.

When I first heard "Flat Earth" album. I was changed. Thanks Tom

[@LoriCiani]

Matt Pannell My interest began when I saw a concert on TV. I bought the Flat Earth on cassette tape and nearly wore the thing out. I then bought the earlier Wireless album on cassette tape and went to the Flat Earth concert at the Birmingham Odeon, I bought a couple of 12 inch singles. Yes, I became...a fan. 😨

Brilliant Performance!

[@beaudwayful]

My best friend requested this song at his wedding, as is proper.

[@barrysmith8920]

So cool!

[@HowardPrice]

Awesome! He's a really nice guy. Keep a look out for a new tour "The Invisible Lighthouse" later this year.

[@Sidley1960]

Wanted to have TD speak at an event and he was so friendly and courteous, a real gentleman.

[@DrDave541]

Yeah, well... kinda missed that one!!!!

[@beckybrown6332]

That was awsome.

[@antoniotorres3754]

Excellent sounds, if you ask me! 😋 thanks bro!

[@nyokoSalome]

sounds like a hit to me too, professor!! ;0

[@HappyQuailsLC]

Wow! "Moogfest"! What a concept! One place I'd sure like to be..... hmm... thinking......

[@marksemple297]

SCIENCE!

[@Mialamorena1]

That audience tho... a bit slow and rhythmless...he deserved MUCH more

[@Ektalon]

Good to see Thomas was able to pry Biggles out of the cockpit long enough play at Moogfest . . .

[@RMJR6262]

I heard that Dolby noise reduction said he could not use his own name, see how well that went.

[@Zetep]

Dolby is not his own name.

[@RMJR6262]

@@Zetep Thomas Morgan Robertson I was just timing how long it would take for your comment. 🎹

[@chucku00]

Giants !

[@robertarnold7187]

"Yes but as a known Scientist it just surprises me that the girl blinded me with science".

[@rockdrumr2772]

"As a known scientist, it would be a bit surprising if she blinded ME with science!"

[@artdonovandesign]

A bona fide musical genius. A singular, creative voice and totally uncompromising in his art and technological acheivements. OK. Let me get this out of the way. His "Science" : that one word in a loud exclamation actually made humanities' most profound achievements "sexy" again. It's stands as the only pop song to ever include that word.

[@jimcharles651]

"Weird Science" by Oingo Boingo

[@2008israelramos]

That jam is too good. He's got to play and extended version live.

[@wsnone9934]

SO DID THE GIANTS PLAY THIS AT THE GAME?

[@buttoneer63]

I need to know who the drummer is?

[@gr8soundz]

Believe the drummer is Mat Hector, also the drummer for Iggy Pop and for many other artists, like Genesis & Peter Gabriel.

[@nyokoSalome]

@@gr8soundz zowizezz!!

[@djtoman391]

He should have gotten the audience to shout "MadBum"!

[@fredlark9048]

Still think the Eurythmics nicked / were inspired by that Bassline on Sisters are doing it for themselves....

[@denisdonn]

I wouldn't claim it, what a terrible song

[@eduardobasterra5477]

mejor que no le sigan al guitarrista cuando levanta los brazos....

[@jlc7300]

FUNNY!

[@WrvrUgoThrUR]

How cool is it that--not even your best piece of music went to #1.

[@mobiledrummer]

sadly none of his other music made it into any chart :(

[@bricepc1]

too bad he has to be side show , to his own talent

[@miagifodder5599]

way to ruin their favoutrite song by saying science over and over.

[@montydanable]

First five minutes, self indulgent crap. And I say this from having seen him live in the '80's.

[@richb2752]

You need a life, Thomas is a musical genius. WHATS IN YOUR BRAIN?

[@Zetep]

Owen must be a lot of fun on parties.

[@montydanable]

@@Zetep Yep, I'm a hoot, ya bozo.
