As a young teen in the 80's, this song blew all of our minds. We just kinda pretended we didn't know what he was talking about. Luckily, our parents never caught on, or there would have been some kind of outrage. Straight under the radar, that was the 80's! lol. In Australia at least.

This is easily among the top 10 dance songs ever. And yes, the lyrics are extremely explicit and they caused a huge controversy when the song was initially released in 1984. The band tried to say the lyrics were not sexual and the song was actually about motivation. That did not work. No one believed them and after a time they finally admitted the lyrics were exactly about what they appeared to be. Nearly 40 years later this song is STILL fun to dance to!

Being a teen in the mid 80's was epic with the beginning of MTV when was actually music tv, we were obsessed. Our young minds were so wonderfully warped by so many great songs like this. Yes, everyone mindlessly sang along a hundred times a day either on radio, tv or just in our own heads, but did "get" the strong innuendo implied, but it was another of our anthems. When I hear this one again, it takes me right back to a great time in my life. Love your reactions. Speaking of Godley and Creme, you must see their video for their song "Cry"!!!

" Relax " was heavily featured in Brian De Palma's Hitchcockian style film " Body Double " (1984) It was a very controversial song and music video in it's day. There were several edits of the video, which all seem to have been censored in one form or another. The " Laser beams " edit was the only video version that ever got any airplay here in the United States. Video controversy aside, the song itself is such a solid track. Even 30+ years later, it still sounds fresh today. You should also listen to their song " Two Tribes ", it's very different, and very, very GOOD.

My number one tune from the 80s and one of the best selling tracks. They knew exactly what they were doing and giving a massive middle finger to the conservatives in a time when gay rights were being actively suppressed by Margaret Thatcher and her government. It also helped that it was banned by radio one on its second release and sold millions! It became almost like a rallying cry to a whole generation. TUNE!!!!

In a most excellent BBC documentary about 80’s music (check it out, you won’t be disappointed), he stated that he considered this the greatest/favourite song that he produced.

Interesting fact, the band was signed to ZTT Records on reputation and when they got them into a recording studio they discovered that they couldn’t play their instruments, to a satisfactory standard. Fortunately they had, the legendary, Ian Dury on their books, so they used The Blockheads, Ian’s band to record the instrumental.

I love your reaction to this - I vividly remember the events leading to this track being banned by the BBC. Incredibly, it was the single sleeve that first attracted attention, even though it was painfully obvious, even in 1983-84, that the lyrics were a lot more explicit. The ban propelled the song to the top of the charts on a wave of scandalised publicity. This song was, as you said, produced by Trevor Horne. Going back to 1979, Trevor Horne was part of an electronic duo called The Buggles. The other half of The Buggles was Geoff Downes, who went on to produce Asia, who were very big in the USA in the early '80s. I think that you might find The Buggles an interesting listen: very electronic, very well-produced, but ultimately not taking itself too seriously. I don't think they had much success in the USA, but their first single, "Video Killed The Radio Star" was #1 in the UK for a week. In my opinion, "Elstree", the follow up, which didn't even make the UK Top 40, was even better, though I don't know if you'll find a decent video clip on RU-vid. "Video Killed The Radio Star", on the other hand, has a video that really is once seen and never forgotten. Try it...

Their first three singles all got to No.1 in the UK. A massive Liverpool band at the time. Two Tribes video brilliant too. Then The Power of Love, a breathtaking alternative.

I love your intelligent reactions. Keep it up. Yes classic gay images and the connection to what I see as a Roman emperor, the Roman games, the tiger, etc, Orgies.
