This is one of my all-time favorite 80s tracks. And now I finally have it in superb DjPaulT quality! YAY!!! THANK YOU!!!
I think this track heavily influenced the production method of Stock/Aitken/Waterman (the instrumental sequencing), especially on tracks like Bananarama’s “Venus” and DOA’s “Spin Me Round”! Somehow I’ve never seen the video until now.
You’re welcome, Martika. 🙂
Welcome back Paul!! I think I can speak for everyone in that we all missed you. I hope you had a relaxing, rejuvenating vacation. I wasn’t familiar with this one, but it’s catchy and I love the New Wave sound! I can see it packing the dance floors back in the day. Thank you!
Thank you, Retro Hound. I had a nice time off. I missed you guys as well. 🙂
First, welcome back, Paul!! I missed you. Hope you had a great time!!
I am so pumped to have this Boytronic record from you!! It was my very first introduction to the band. I so love it. This and “Brilliant” bring back fond memories. The early 1980s made quite the impression on me and my ears. This post-disco synth-pop shaped my musical tastes. Thank you, Paul, once again for these audio treasures!!
Again, thrilled you are back!!

You’re welcome, Jeff. It is good to be back I missed all of you. I was shocked that this single did not chart in the US I thought it had at least made it to the dance chart. This one and “Man In Uniform” are the only songs I am familiar with and of course their cover of “I Will Survive”.
Paul, it’s cool that you said this. I was exposed to this song via a VHS video cassette, called “Dansepak” or something along these lines. I purchased the tape because it had the video for “Hip Hop Be-Bop (Don’t Stop)” by Man Parrish on it. There were other clips, but all these videos were brand new to me. “You” really stood out. I’ve been a fan ever since. Thank you so much for this 12-inch mix!!
Jeff
“Sehr, sehr geil!” as we would say here in (Germany and) Austria!
Thank “YOU”! 😉
You’re welcome, Christian. Also thanks for teaching me some German as well 🙂
“Sehr, sehr geil!” mehr braucht man dazu nicht sagen!
Greetings from Germany
