Paul Rutherford - Get Real (Happy House Mix) 

Quite possibly the best dance record of all time. Period. Simply stunning. I was 14 when this came out and it literally changed my life.

The best UK acid track....ever!

THE best acid house tune of all time. Made by 2 blokes out of ABC and someone from Frankie Goes To Hollywood who ISN'T Holly Johnson. Genius.

Quite simply the best pop acid house record ever...masterpiece

Amongst one of the best acid/house/dance tracks ( BRITISH 🇬🇧).. I remember raving to this buying it and playing it when I dee Jade ‼️‼️… like beloved “sun rising “ etc… THOSE TRULY WERE THE DAZE 💯percent 💙🇧🇧💙🥳🥳

omg white doves and strawberries...pay parties and backdrops......oh man good old daze...only those of us of a certain age will remember these things with such fondness; a big "hello" to all who relate to these things♥♥

Yeah! Searched 18 Years for it...this song will rock the floor for the next three weeks...

I wish more house music sounded as great as this nowadays.

After hours at Therapy in Houston Texas USA in 1988. Partied until sunrise every week. This was the signature track there. Loved it!

Rudderpuff is ace - we like Paul Rutherford for doing this song, they played it recenlty in a birmingham nite club and the dancefloor went feckin nuclear

Stunning this was way way ahead of its time.

Just discovered it and I haven't stopped watching/listening to it in the last couple of weeks. I am amazed it's produced by ABC. Must say Mr. Rutherford was a fiiiiine looking guy back in the day!

Dark dreamy trippy beautiful all at the same time

I loves this tune, i was in the British Army based in Germany in the late 1980s... Just as the Acid House scene over there took off...It was a fucking insane time...Still love H.O.U.S.E..Its in your Blood..

Timeless masterpiece

Awesome track. Cracking acid.

Serotonin levels are very high and happy with this epic. Sheer Class. Embrace the future ❤️

I remember having the 12" single of this signed by Paul because we sort of knew the Frankies well before they were big. Happy times:)

an absolute anthem....this was massive in the clubs

Brought kicking and screaming into the 2023. Important piece of work right here. Stay Happy people

Killer track...far ahead his time. Great gem.

It was great playing this in Ibiza many moons ago , still sounds good.

Just euphoric - takes me back “up” just listening to it, happy times...

I miss these days in Houston Club Scene..NRG’s,6400,NUMBERS,LIZARD LOUNGE 🙄

wow, this is great! i honest to god never knew that Paul Rutherford did some singles of his own.

Shoom ......mud club ......stallions.......heavens they will NEVER KNOW 🤩🤣🤩🤣🤩🤣🤩🤣🤩

i always regard this track as the 'missing link ' between pop and house. It gives me goose bumps everytime i hear it. Well done pr for a legendary track.

This is great. This acid sound, this is really hypnotic. I like this track for so long. Awesome 😊😉👍

1989 the start of my raving days what a journey

I know Paul was gorgeous; knew him and the Frankies years before they hit the big time, when they were one of many Liverpool musicians looking for a break; used to make me crazy that he was gay he was so fit lolxxx

Frankie goes to hollywood meets ABC

on repeat! massive acid!

Still love this amazing track.....are you happy? Shoom Shoom Shoom

1988 at its peak🤪🦄

Pretty much the greatest tune ever

Soundtrack to the second summer of love. Sublime!

Remember either Paul Bleasedale who was the resident at Cream or maybe Paul Oakenfold playing this one night and the place just went turbo! Graeme Park used to play it at the Hacienda as well! Mega tune and would still slot in today!

very happy to hear this track one more time ! Very good video clip !

Whey hey! Imagine this mixed in with some utah Saints with DJ Tim and Rutherford at their magic... Time I got out there and started dancing again :-) Fawk Oppression! Warning! darina O'neill!

Great production by ABC members. Who were really cool. Their house stuff is seldom remembered, in favour of "Poison Arrow" and "The Night You Murdered Love" etcetera. Check out their house stuff if you can find it. Hard to find.

Absolutely simply stunning tune that travels.

Probably the best dance track of the 80's since....RELAX! And this one got banned too I believe....but only because it sounded too psychedelic! 😂 And we bitch & moan about people getting offended today? They had it hard in the 80's too!

yeah - real great track. and a good album too. who would have thought that from an "only dancer" from Frankie goes to Hollywood ? thanks for uploading !

i used to love getting ready to this one and then hear at the club i still go to numbers on friday nights, it's classic!!!

Quien lo escucha hoy, 26 de diciembre de 2021? Obra maestra.

Banger totally

jeff young radio 1 friday 1988 😮💃👌👍☝👐

Trippy and cool video

July 2019 I am happy now listening to this. Well done Paul nice work and highly underrated in my opinion, even a touch of acid house in the background. Wow what a guy 😎😎😎😎

Love this one, takes me back......

My 'go to" track to burn out an old bin / woofer. I usually get to about @ 3:30 and then I smell burning. Game over seconds later.

Tripnotic

my alltime favourite dance track RAW 89 birmingham massive ;D

Masterpiece!! what a memories!

Dance my assed off to this banger in the clubs in Houston back in the day. High as a kite. Lovely times and bumping vibes.

Ricardo V...play this right now... i never heard this amazing... track...

Mesmerising video and a brilliant track, who would have thought ABC produced it - fantastic is the word. The 7" edit is better still.
