This is the first ever record featuring the Roland TB-303 (the bass synthesiser that became a foundation for acid house music) to enter the UK charts. Feel free to use this information to impress your friends and others, who are into music.
This still sounds great decades later. The TB 303 bass was an inspired choice that kicked off a massive trend and the homage to Buzzcocks' Boredom was just so classy.
Absolutely, thanks to all the replies adding more great Scottish bands to the list. The Associates were unique, some dark sounds and Billys voice was haunting. That keyboard sound on party fears 2 is just beautiful
Saw them at the Royal Court in LIverpool in about 1984. There was a national strike and no transport. I was a student in Liverpool and walked there- must have been less that 100 in the audience but they still played.
Standing in a nightclub in the 80s.This absolute goddess tells me I look like Edwyn Collins in this video.Very embarrassed but secretly over thr moon.Her name was Maria Wolstenholme,she was English,Im Irish,we met in Dublin.We lost touch and it was my fault.Ships that pass and all that.Good times brilliant song
Earlier today “a girl like you” came on and was telling my co-worker how Edwyn suffered cerebral hemorrhaging. After work i scroll through youtube and this song shows up. Always listening, always watching.
There's a new year coming up...wish 'radio' would get its act together and RIP it up and play majestic songs like this...each day,not too muck to ask.😊
I have been following Edwyn Collins's music since Orange Juice, so listening from the beginning, I'm sure you won't be disappointed. I believe the reason he never became a "household name" was that he fell out with music companies in the eighties who wanted him to churn out commercial pop music. and he didn't.
I absolutely love this song! Ive been working in the hospital basement all day thinking of this and I couldnt wait to get out and stick the headphones in and have a listen! Tapping away on my seat like an idiot on the train! 😁
The best time ever, we were so lucky. Carefree times with no pressures. I would not swap them times for anything. Thank goodness we grew up without today's technology. 😀😀
Haven't heard this one in nearly forty years! Saw it a couple times on MTV back in the day, then tonight I stumble across it on my feed. Glad I clicked on it-brought back some childhood memories. Didn't realize that the lead singer had a big hit in the '90s with "A Girl Like You", one of my favourite '90s songs.
I heard this song a couple months ago on a random playlist on Spotify and was thoroughly convinced it was a new band trying to sound Retro, Which is wildly popular these days. My mind is completely blown!! What an amazing song. I hope it catches on!!!!!!
Myself and my best friend mark were both painters and decoraters at the time this song came so you can imagine the crack we had at our customers homes stripping wallpaper off the walls and singing RIP it up and start again . Just brilliant.
Absolutely Epic song!!! What a timeless classic this really is, it still sounds as fresh today as it did all those years ago. Total respect to Edwyn Collins. 🙏✊👏👏👏👏
I really like this band. I used to play them as a student DJ on my Saturday night college radio show back in the '80s. I listen to them today for their cozy synth pop melodies.
Ah the early 80s trendy Glasgow West End Set with a hint of Glasgow School Of Art thrown in for good measure- Orange Juice, H20, Altered Images, Strawberry Switchblade
Edwin is so very beautiful in this video - looks just like the first love of my life, Colin... The music and lyrics are awesome - Edwin, along with Jeff Lynne, is one of my favourite music-makers...
Only 134, 776 views, for a song this good? Gosh, the world is missing out, I hope to God more people hear this tune, and I hope to God more people come to know Yehovah God too, and quickly.
I had this music video saved to my playlist from another channel, was devastated when I saw it was removed due to copyright issues, now that it's on an official Orange Juice channel I'm elated again! Also lol at when he falls around 2:06 xD
Same here had it in my playlist and was down when it was removed. Thank god it’s been reupload. Need some orange juice in these hard times. Stay safe Chey
Liked this song when first out a year after I left school but luckily it does not age or gravitate to a decade .sounds better everytime I hear it . .Thank you
