To mark the song’s induction into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame, Men Without Hats gives Breakfast Television this exclusive special performance of their 1987 hit ‘Pop Goes the World.’
Geeze...I think his voice sounds better...I was a kid when this came out so I thought but I'm probably only 4 years younger. Good job old man from an old man!
Wait, has it been that long that this is now old timey music. DAMN - guess I need to tear that calliope to the ground. Ludwig tell Wolfgang and Sebastian to work on that.
This is WONDERFUL. I adore this song since 1985 when I was 14. Now I am 51 and watching this vídeo is not simply nostalgia. Is the melody, the instrumentation, the awesome vibe, that voice. Thanks so much for doing this and share it with us. If I am happy bet thousands are happy too.
Saw these guys twice in the past few years... it's hard to think of another singer who seems to be enjoying himself more on stage than Ivan. The man gave it his all, sounds great, and is super fit. I take my hat (ha ha) off to him.
I was at the London show they played a few years back (2013?) unfortunately only a handful of people attended but it was honestly one of the most fun filled shows I’ve ever attended,such a feel good show..Ivan spent hours afterwards chatting to everyone,great night
I was 10 years old when this song came out and I couldn't get enough of it. So much so, that I'd sleep with my stereo against my ear with 102.7 KIIS FM playing - and when this song's intro hit, I'd wake right up. Fantastic song that brings back killer memories.
Just saw these guys today at the Kitchener Ontario Canada Bluesfest concert.... They were amazing. The songs were spot on just like the day they were first released. Ivan's voice was just awesome. he moved and had a great stage presents as a true performer. Sho Murray was also awesome. he got the crowd revved up... great artis (originally with Shocore - Bonecracker..yes I know). The whole band and its members were just excellent to see today. Great job guys. I never saw you before live and you made world a better place seeing you life as I always loved your songs and albums through my younger years. Good job!!
I used to listen to these guys when i was developing pictures in my darkroom that i built in my Dad's cellar in the 1980s. Big up to you guys - it was 1 elephant 2 elephant MWOH !
Love this band and terrific track reproduced on film again. Don't miss their other tracks on both albums 'Folk of the 80's' and 'Pop goes The World', such master pieces...
BRAVO IVAN ! Quel talent ! 35 plus tard vous l'interprétez toujours avec la même légèreté, humilité, cette chanson est absolument géniale ! MERCI de l'avoir écrite !
Merci Ivan, c'est plein de joie et de gaieté. Merci aux membres du groupe, vous vous éclatez. Cette version est tout simplement excellente et cette barbe blanche te va à ravir 😁
I got to see them in 87 or 88...a little fuzzy...they played an all ages show at a club in Baltimore called PT Flaggs, its where the power plant is or whatever they call it these days. great memory.....$10 parking, $20 ticket, Doing the safety dance with 300 other kids...priceless...
When I was a kid I used to listen many crowds sang the rythm of this songs in stadiums all around southamerica, When I found the real song I was shocked, good memories. Thanks MWH.

Just saw yall in Ohio at #LudlowGarage! I closed my eyes and it was 1982 and I was turning 16 again! I've been to 13 different shows this summer, and by far , yall were the BEST!! Ivan, your voice is still spot on and as crisp as the day you bounced, poll to poll. The look? Distinguished! Thanks for keeping this old ass 57 year old vet young! Please come to Birmingham Alabama next time around!!!! The 10 hour drive to Ohio was worth it!
