Being a proud Aussie who has heard this song since whenever, it never gets old!!

@lindabergman3127 Год назад

Definitely a fabulous band love the saxophone 😁

@rayniecox7683 Год назад

This is the ring tone on my phone for unidentified callers. 😎😎😎😎

@mlg4035 Год назад

Business as Usual has SO MANY GOOD songs!!!! Catch a Star. Down by the Sea. Touching the Untouchables.... You can't miss!!

@alchemy-oi8xf Месяц назад

You've sure got that right--Colin Hay's one of the most underrated vocalists of the 80's. Stellar song with a wailin' sax and Police-style rhythms. Not to mention that hook! Their debut album was really special and fun.

@heatherturner6955 Год назад

Love this song! Love the band! My daughter just saw them in Nashville. "Overkill" is my favorite of theirs. But this song is always a "dial drop" if i am flipping on the radio. Now that i heard it again - duh, it's all about the 🎷. So good and so fun! And so glad you put it out for Halloween!

@michaelmaloskyjr Год назад

Yes "Overkill" is the shimmering, but brooding culmination of where their sound ultimately was headed: From the overly joyous "Down Under" to the cheeky but paranoid "Who Can It Be" to the minor chord, midnight rumination of "Overkill."

@NoCanDu Год назад

I agree. Defining track for them.

@lokisan100 Год назад

Overkill, best of the men at work!

@sdev2749 2 месяца назад

I was a 16 year old teen in Australia when this song came out - we listened to it VERY day over and over for a long time. As aussies this song is now ingrained into us.

@donnacarter2617 Год назад

Oh yes, the 80's had very interesting music , most definitely!!!! Love these guys, being a teenager in the 80's were the best times.

@danreed5171 Год назад

this shit rocks. I grew up listening to them in the 80's. IN 81' I was a 10yr old.... sounds better 2day than ever, ........I am buying a SAX--- and learning this cut........

@bayareathrasher666 Год назад

Great early MTV stuff...I definitely appreciate them more now then as a teenager in the 80's

@debbiedebster5806 Год назад

For those of you who mentioning Overkill, first of all HECK YEAH lol but you should check Colin out with Choir!Choir!Choir! singing it, it's so beautifully done!!♥️✌

@toddboyle1716 Год назад

Be Good Johnny & Overkill are also both outstanding MAW songs. Colin Hay was also featured in an episode of Scrubs singing an acoustic version of Overkill.

@armorer94 Год назад

I got this album Christmas of '82. Wore the grooves off of it. The whole album is great.

@nancymartineau-bauman8770 Год назад

I have not heard this in ages. I actually forgot who did this song. I remember watching the video on MTV and hearing this in dance clubs. Love the sax in this too.

@thatfelladownunder9396 Год назад

I was one of those that helped it to multi platinum back in the day. What an album! I had the cassette and it kept me entertained travelling back home from interstate when I was in the Army. Many memories with this one.

@joekuul8769 Год назад

The humorous videos on MTV were big hits, too.

@maxmirni2768 10 месяцев назад

they were the true funsters of 80s

@donaldnewberne2616 Год назад

Men at Work is another Awesome Band from the 80's. They are from Australia, the land down under. They had many great song's throughout their playing. Listen to all of their music. Totally Awesome and Narley Dude 🤟🤘👊✊🤙

@xanajak Год назад

'80s latchkey kid: Men at Work owned the world, and the souls of MTV, for a hot minute.

@stpnwlf9 Год назад

Colin Hay is an amazing songwriter and performer. Lately, he's been touring with Ringo Starr's All-Starr Band. Zach Braff and Krista Lawrence were big fans of Colin - they were co-stars on Scrubs and incorporated a lot of his music into the soundtrack for that series.

@rayeckert242 Год назад

Righteous ‘80’s music. Caught these guys in ‘83 on a blistering hot summer night. I remember the keyboard player lamenting the fact that there were moths cavorting in his wine between songs. They were very cheeky and a lot of fun. Check out “Be Good Johnny” . Keep the extinguisher handy.

@alexmarin4245 Год назад

One of the best 80's songs! GREAT REACTION, GUYS!

@Survivor2002 Год назад

Living in Atlanta back in the 80's, I got to see some great live concerts. The first one for me was Tina Turner with her PRIVATE DANCER tour. The second? Men At Work and the BUSINESS AS USUAL tour!

@Alexandrovna97 Год назад

Men At Work. What can I say - so much good songs. "Touching the untouchables", "It's a mistake", "Fallin' down" (Live at Merriweather Post Pavilion, very very excellent saxophone solo), "Catch a star", "No restrictions". Brilliant sound

@annahanguiano8931 Год назад

I've always loved this group. This song is my ringtone 👍👍😆♥️

@ABoomerReacts 7 месяцев назад

This has been my ringtone for years.

@rirchardrubio5621 Год назад

Isn't it cool how they Harmonize towards the end of the song??

@that70sgirl17 Год назад

Hey guys - the words Australian and Saxophone made me think that you'd appreciate reacting to John Farnham. He's an Aussie powerhouse vocalist and my favourite performance from him has an epic sax solo. Search up HELP by John Farnham and The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. A reaction video with him is guaranteed a lot of views and new subscribers too.

@melissadambro8873 Год назад

Also wanted to add that “Overkill” from their next album is great, but another great song is “No Sign of Yesterday” - an amazing vibe!

@lokisan100 Год назад

Yes, I concur!

@danjmcs Год назад

Colin Hay is so good... I've seen him solo and he's a fantastic musician and live performer... Great song and loved these guys during this run.

@williamweiss6128 Год назад

82, playing in a huge bar in BC, they kept playing this new song. Never heard it before then. Memories.

@timwhitnell7145 Год назад

Movies have too much sax and violins but I love them in music. That sax playing in Who Can It Be Now? is A-1 throughout. Love the harmonizing as well. It's A Mistake and Overkill are excellent early songs by Men At Work.

@derekcartner4826 Год назад

Colin Hay is from Scotland but was living in Australia at the time

@hibhibb5429 Год назад

Colin Hay has an Amazing voice. He still sounds awesome. Check out Men at Work's song "OVERKILL" and Colin's solo song "You Saved Me From Myself (From The Resident). Colin Hay has such a distinctive voice. You hear it and automatically know it's him. Greg Hamm was the Sax player. He played saxophone, flute, organ, piano, and synthesizer. He was so talented. Sadly, we lost him in April 2012 (heart attack). RIP Greg. If you love the Sax sound you should check out John Cafferty and The Beaver Brown Band - their song "Tender Years" and "On the Dark Side" has awesome Sax in it.

@stpnwlf9 Год назад

Greg Ham was such a huge part of the band's personality. he is sorely mssed.

@lizmagu3189 Год назад

So great to have been a teen in the 80s and hear this music on the radio. Luv them. You should now react to my fave Overkill. Also another cool 80s band ya might consider reacting to is The Fixx..

@TheConservativeinaction Год назад

yeah saved by zero and red skies are their best songs

@lizmagu3189 Год назад

@@TheConservativeinaction Totally agree!

@NoCanDu Год назад

Yes! Funny, I was thinking Colin Hay had some serious Cy Curnin vibes when seeing that video again!

@melissadambro8873 Год назад

This was the second album I ever bought! I learned to play part of the sax part back then, but I’m sure it was pretty lousy.. 😂 unfortunately, Greg Hamm the sax player passed away not that long ago. Great song, though - thanks for reacting!

@bobthebear1246 2 месяца назад

Did Ryan say "triple dong??" 🤣🤣 Yeah, this is a great song. Everybody loved it, as well as the rest of this surprisingly great album which came out of nowhere in 1982. Their 1983 follow-up album was nearly as good. You guys need to listen/react to "Be Good Johnny," "Overkill," and "It's A Mistake," which for some reason is their funniest song. 😂😂

@happymethehappyone8300 Год назад

Absolute MUST HEAR Classics:: Argent "Hold Your Head Up"...Head East "Never Been Any Reason"..Free "All Right Now"..Vanilla Fudge "You Keep Me Hangin' On" & Billy Thorpe "Children Of The Sun" (Exclusive Video)..TRUST ME On These!!

@lokisan100 Год назад

Argent, hold your head up for sure!

@LB-bm4sn Год назад

Great song guys! Love Men At Work. You should try Overkill next. Cheers

@lokisan100 Год назад

Absolutely!

@laurakali6522 Год назад

Overkill should be next, And watch Colin Hay on an old episode of Scrubs. He’s very funny.

@karito4976 Год назад

Yes Its a great song I really like that song

@KneeJerkReactions13 Год назад

The acoustic of Overkill from the show is superb

@alfredocornelio4329 Год назад

Funny you mention Colin having a voice resembling Jamaican/reggae, since the Jamaican accent is influenced by english, with Scottish and Irish being more noticeable similarities and Colin being born and raised in Scotland at least until he was 14 then moved to Australia. The actor Peter Capaldi also has that Scottish raspy voice sounding same to Hay and Sting also has that type of Jamaican style accent to his singing.

@cindyjennings5976 5 месяцев назад

Burning Bed, another great song from the Australian band Midnight Oil.

@roxyc5345 Год назад

So much fun! Summer Sunday arvo at the pub on the beach music! Never gets old😊

@MrDuneedon Год назад

I absolutely love this band. Loved them as a kid, still love them today. Recommendations for future MaW songs: "Overkill," and my number one favorite, "No Sign Of Yesterday."

@koestenbraumstar1843 Год назад

New viewer, just subbed you guys, first vid of yours I watched was Gerry Rafferty Baker Street.....looking forward to seeing more vids and checking out your old vids. I'm a massive music lover, collected since late 70s.

@russtex Год назад

Great song! Got the album for my birthday when it came out in the 80's!

@AP-gb3eh Год назад

Saw them in a dance club , what a great FUN band . Great show

@TheConservativeinaction Год назад

love this song but overkill is their masterpiece. even better than this one and i love this song but down under makes me smile so much and i love it more.

@lokisan100 Год назад

Love overkill and it's a mistake!

@donnakubiski5572 Год назад

I'm putting in another vote for "Overkill". Great song and video.

@megandavies8590 Год назад

That whole album is a masterpiece , but I am biased.

@bodybalanceU2 Год назад

colin hay said he got the idea of the song from a flat he use to share where the neighbours next door sold drugs from their flat and weird people at every time of the day would be knocking on their door but alot of the times they would knock on colins door by mistake and the idea of the song came from that

@notanotherenigma7759 Год назад

They are an Aussie band, but Colin Hay is Scottish (like Al Stewart!!!), and it shows occasionally when he sings. They had heaps of good songs, Overkill, It's a Mistake, I Like To, and Hard Luck Story. Worth a dive into in my opinion. Oh, and speaking of Al Stewart, he had a song called Joe The Georgian (about Joseph Stalin). It's about people who Starlin had killed waiting for him down in Hell! Or he had the hauntingly beautiful guitar piece called The Ghostly Horses of the Plain. Not exactly scary, but the horses were ghostly!!!

@ian8241 Год назад

Great Iconic Aussie Band, as a random request try the very iconic Aussie 80s band Cold Chisel and the song Forever Now (official video)..

@allenburgess1662 Год назад

You guys need to check out Down By The Sea by these guys, you will not be disappointed 😀

@Manageode Год назад

I am really glad and even relieved that you liked this one.

@realityiscool9483 Год назад

This fits in with my "spooky 80s music" genre. Who can it be now, Abra cadabra, Eye in The Sky, it all creeped me out

@heyskipj Год назад

For Ryan--If you're all over that 80s sax there was a band called Quarterflash that had a lead singer/sax player. "Harden my Heart" and "Find another Fool" were their two biggies. Pretty solid in that 80s rock pocket. Wait… has this channel done any Clarence Clemmons? Like "Born to Run"? That live concert video footage video is epic!

@lokisan100 Год назад

Yes, Quarterflash, female lead singer sax player! Love their stuff! Harden my heart@

@thornbird6768 Год назад

I really liked this band 👍🏻

@MyargonautsJason Год назад

you should try some of Colin Hay's solo songs - Beautiful World, I'm Waiting for My Real Life, and Looking for Jack are all great solo songs from Colin.

@stephenmelone8589 Год назад

If you like sax solos , Billy Joel's NEW YORK FRAME OF MIND

@heyskipj Год назад

Boy, this took me back. Hopefully, another 40 years will pass before I have to listen to this song again!😆

@racar47 Год назад

Great Review. Another Halloween themed song for Men At Work could be "Dr Heckyll and Mr. Jive", although my all time favorite song by them is "Settle Down My Boy". You should check those out. We share something in common, Nick. I was a mailman for 12 years, before I made a career change.

@lharrill7229 Год назад

They have a song called Overkill. It's absolutely their best song. Very well written and performed.

@penrod6540 Год назад

1 of the 1st and best videos on early MTV

@kmach1000 Год назад

This is my ringtone!

@TheConservativeinaction Год назад

werewolves of lodnon needs to be on your halloween playlist. also monster mash by bobby pickett.

@stevenbalekic5683 Год назад

This song is about a guy renting an apartment and having random people knocking and asking for drugs at all times of the day and night. Obviously the previous tenant had a little business going on there before the he moved in there.

@arthurplane9682 Год назад

If you want to react to an underrated / underappreciated Men at Work song, one that has few reactions to also, please give "Be Good Johhny" a spin.

@AdamConus Год назад

Be Good Johnny has wicked cool guitar work. I second that suggestion!

@armorer94 Год назад

It was a minor hit here in the states and got some airplay on MTV.

@Music-Is-Real-Love Год назад

Love that song!!.

@legman1476 Год назад

"It's A Mistake" is my recommendation for your next Men At Work sing. It reached #6 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart in 1983.

@misterkite Год назад

Best song of the 80s? I would argue for: The Church - Under the Milky Way...

@penrod6540 Год назад

Yup reminds me of somebodys watching me

@gamortie Месяц назад

Be Good, Johnny and Overkill - more to look at!

@zedsded62 Год назад

Great reaction...Down by the sea really highlights Colin Hay at his best

@glennj61 Год назад

I bought their album when it came out and this is the first song I heard by them.

Saw them on their only Florida appearance 1982/83 at the old Tampa Jai Lai 16th row with 9 other college buddies Great show!!!!

PLEASE do just Colin Hay doing “Are You Looking At Me”. 🙏🏻

@tonytuhoro23 2 месяца назад

Hey boy's, What about a Aussie gun singer. John Farnham who sung a version of "Help" by Beatles. A live version with the Melbourne Symphony I challenge your to react to him gun voice. I know you will be amazed!!!!. Promise...

@9RJA Год назад

Check out Overkill.

@jjr007 Год назад

"Be Good Johnny", "Overkill", and "Dr Heckyll and Mr Jive" should be on your play list!

@bobthebear1246 2 месяца назад

Oh I forgot about that last one!!

@NoCanDu Год назад

Halloween! Their song”Dr. Heckle and Mr. Jive!”

@lisemzarate4029 Год назад

Overkill!!!!!!!!!!🥰

@ZakM9 Год назад

If you guys like sax solos react to "Sunny Disposition" by Avenged Sevenfold on The Stage album (Lyric Video). Don't get me wrong it has nothing on Who Can It Be Now but I think you guys would appreciate this song as well because the sax solos in the chorus really make it one of Avenged Sevenfold's most compelling songs. Thanks.

100% double down on “Overkill” from Cargo. Their greatest composition, haunting.

Welcome To My Nightmare? The DVD-A version is wonderful!

@mduncan65 Год назад

Great song! Simple and very catchy tunes! Great reaction guys! My suggestion for a reaction to put on your playlist for Halloween is by RUSH, a song off of Moving Pictures called Witch Hunt.

@mikestudioz216 Год назад

Hey, Could you plz react to Mornin’, The Theme from Moonlighting and Just to be Loved by Al Jarreau? This guy is AMAZING

@patrickglynn7089 Год назад

If you want a good sax sound. Listen to Billy Joel's Temptation

@carlleedham6256 Год назад

" they're Australian " apart from the fact the lead singer is Scottish

@timwhitnell7145 Год назад

It's a fun, uptempo song melodically but the words are pretty dark seeming to highlight a person's paranoia and the troubled state of his mental health, for whatever reason(s).
