Yello - Goldrush

[@robertescher3082]

Yello is one of those acts that manages to stay JUUUUUST out of reach of the mainstream while still being too well known to be completely underground... I've enjoyed this band for 37 years and I STILL haven't figured out how to describe them to anyone else other than to say "They're Yello".

[@philphilly4777]

File under.ELECTRO FUNK.A lot of HIP HOP/ELECTRO artists.Owe there hits thanks to the beats Yello.Came out with in the early 80's.ps.Give Yello Live At The Roxy (Full Version).A listen & you will hear for yourself.

[@alisdairmckenzie]

And that's why I love em? And still do, since early 80s....I mimic main sound from The Race for the uninitiated and they go..' oh I know them'. Suits me fine

[@kyrkosekaterinaris1328]

That is a very accurate description! I would add Sparks to that same category of "not-really-mainstream-not-really-underground".

[@kaydirling]

I remember listening to their music and thinking it sounds like the lyrics were written by millionaire playboys, and then finding out that Deiter Meier is, in fact, a millionaire playboy. 😅 Yello is so underrated. Love all their albums.

[@sergeyl5927]

У них огромное количество фанатов, которые с нами очень очень долго , это важнее чем временные попутчики )

[@jasmineblack9778]

Billy Mackenzie always added something even more magical with his backing vocals

[@hearmymotoredheart]

A severely underrated electronic act, y'all show some respect

[@tamirichards4878]

My best friend sent me this when my mom passed away, I was so angry with life. 1990. I "learned" to love this song. Bang it with headphones, you will too. He passed away one month later, his mom I loved dearly. She passed away today, I promised him I would see her through. 30 yrs later...I have. Louise.. love you always and forever. You are Gold.

[@EuphoniaPooch]

What a good friend. Cheers

[@TheAcousticRabbitHole]

Tami, I'm documenting my associations with color and musical notes. This song based of E major, which I see as, believe it or not: Yellow. But that's not even the point I was going to make. E major is a key of illumination. I see it as triangular as well. So it's very like the Holy Trinity. Not to mention yellow as being associated with the light of Christ. So, basically I feel this key is about consciousness. So, it's sort of a "waking up to reality," E-flat, a golden-yellow, (Gold Rush?) has a smiler effect as well. Just saying that there the key of the song does seem to relate to your experience.

[@DaineseBikerAZ]

Every time I see an old Yello song or video I remember meeting Dieter Meier 1989 in their studio at home. It was a fantastic visit and it's still in my mind as it was yesterday...! They were miles away from mainstream with their music and they stillare.

[@TheAcousticRabbitHole]

Concering the advent of the official Music Video that started with MTV "Music Television" the the early 80's, this man should be mentioned by the critics. There are always references to The Eurythmics, Madonna, and Peter Gabriel, but so may of Yello's music videos were true artistic statements that showed a far superior sense of visual story telling them most music videos being presented in the 88's. Hat's off to YELLO!

[@andjavgarven]

Possibly the most underrated duo of all time. Yello is great!!!! Love it!!

[@keithharvey7230]

Lol

[@grahamstarkie]

A masterpiece of studio production

[@adaw2d3222]

This is one of my favourites from Yello.

[@elevatorman5468]

[@katychic5465]

[@antonystringfellow5152]

This song carries a message, for those eager to learn. It's about materialism (greed and fear). |t's what drives the World's financial markets. It's not really what us humans should be about. The value of our lives cannot be measured in dollars (or gold).

[@hearmth6618]

Hasbro's theme song 😈🪙

[@jonbilbao2207]

Love the track, love the ONE SECOND album. A sonic experience, especially listening from vinyl and with headphones

[@hearmth6618]

Seconded 🕐

[@streetfood7568]

This song is so much _stranger_ than all the other _things_ I’ve ever heard in my life

[@violetvulpine5356]

Yeah man Stranger Things. Though I thought they got the years wrong. Goldrush was from 1987, whilst S3 of Stranger Things is 1985. Still a brilliant song though.

[@micke_mango]

If that's the case, you really should take a deep dive into the 80s. Not the mainstream, but all the various kinds of new, exciting, spectacular and experimental musical styles that flourished during that decade. Yello was only one out of many creative and innovative groups...

[@DelEngen]

I see what you did there. But seriously, if you want even stranger things, seek out their earlier music on the Ralph Records label.

[@andrewryan9932]

@@violetvulpine5356 The copyright above says 1986, so not so far out. Plus, it's not like the CHARACTERS were listening to the song.

[@bicyclist2]

This is my favorite Yello song. I remember listing to this back in the 80's on cassette tape. Thanks.

[@hearmth6618]

Same here! I love the calypso rhythm of the acapella, bongos, monkey sounds, and muted trumpet! 🐒🎺 I only discovered Yello in 2023 thanks to looking up Oh Yeah since I remember hearing and liking ithe song from Duff Man's scenes in The Simpsons though 🍺💛

[@betcheck]

I'd only heard the song once when I was very young, but it had haunted me for decades. All I remembered was that it was hypnotic electronic music to which a near-naked juggler danced on Le plus grand cabaret du monde, a French TV show. Today, in ten minutes, I was able to exorcise that memory and find that song again, thanks to the technologies of AI, search engines and KZbin. So it was a Viktor Kee show in the year 2000. It's hard to describe, but I'd say I'm as satisfied as I am happy right now.

[@xnonsuchx]

I just love the overall consistency of Yello videos regardless of how much I like the song, thanks to Dieter directing them all (or most of them)

[@hearmth6618]

I love his use of contrasting colors for set lighting 🎬📽️🎥

[@alanbingchen1]

Magic band. Funky. Quintessential new wave. Artistic covers, very Francis Bacon. “Oh yeah,” might be the movie tune, but I foam to my kids (9-12) re: VICIOUS GAMES (I never knew, how much I loved you, I never knew, how much you cared). That’s their magnificent, beautiful song. This one’s just for me. It’s like, “LET’S GET IT!”

[@cringestudios2931]

Quite frankly, underrated honestly.

I think I’ve got away from Yello, then I’ll stick some headphones on, play a song of theirs, and I’m back in my 80s bedsit, chilling with my head between the speakers of my ghetto blaster, hands dancing on the bed, pillow behind my neck so as not to squash the Mohawk, getting in the zone for a good night out with the boys. *_Sigh_* getting old is shit.

I’ve been listening to them since this album was on a cassette... it’s still awesome.

[@aaronlichow278]

Did they have a song that started with a military style snare roll, and the chorus was "rush hush push"?

Everybody's here talkin' about Stranger Things. I thought there would be at least someone mentioning Cappella and how they sampled this song in one of their earlier big hits, 'Helyom Halib'

[@lecochonbleu]

Helyom Halib ripped off this song so much that it's nearly an acid house cover version, coupled with a cover version of LNR's "Work It To The Bone".
