It wasn't a given to see fully live vocals on TOTP. And for a dance act, very rare indeed! For that reason, this peformance is quite exceptional, and all the better for it! What energy! If this doesn't get you bopping around, chances are you are probably dead! lol
The UK doesn't give enough credit to Dutch and Belgian New Beat. They were really creative and fast on bending house to their vision. I'm from the UK. but the first clubs I went to that were playing hard techno were in Holland (the Mazo was the first I experienced) in about 87/88. I didn't go to Belgium but had loads of New Beat. Drty, dark kind of industrial and fronted by a lot of 'in yer face!' Dominatrix styled women; Petra & Co, Praga Khan, Zsa Zsa La Boum, Lords of Acid, Jade 4 U, Little Little, Nicky Trax etc.
until late-90's when the Spice SLAGS, Oasis, Britpop and Channel 4 corrupted the youth of Britain good and proper ! My generation was THE worst one of all at that point ! Teen pregnancy at its height, teen drinking excess beyond belief, and boys failing behind girls at GCSE's due to 'lad' culture !
Один из моих любимых oldschool rave треков 1990-1992 гг. КАЧАЕТ НА 101% !!! ТУДА ЖЕ: Human Resource - Dominator, L.A.Style - James Brown is dead, R.T.Z. - Dance You Ass, Joey Beltram - Energy Flesh, Lords of Acid (то же что и Praga Khan) - Take Control, T99 - Anastasthia
Put the whole footage, fuck man!!!!!!!! This is The Rave Madonna Jade 4u!!!!!!! Maurice and Oliver!!!!!! Shout out to all the party people in Belgium If ya'll still Rave to this classic!!!!!!! GO PRAGA KHAN!!!!!!
Oh man! I remember this on TOTP's dancing around our living room on a thursday night waiting for the weekend to begin. My mother looked at me as if i had two heads and said to my father "I think our son is taking drugs" no shit mum i was still bouncing from the previous weekend!!! :-)
Same. I focused on the "we don't need that any more" line as evidence that this was in fact an ANTI-drug anthem. I believe I was outgunned by Jade 4 U's cries of "I'm in ecstasy" and " a rainbow inside your mind" in the end, though. 😁
Сейчас такую музыку не делают. Компьютеры, шмапьютеры, сидят, мышками щёлкают, а вот так зажигательно сыграть на синтах, теперь это в прошлом. Увы. Кстати, судя по ляпу Джейд, играют и поют в живую.
The vocals are mostly live, yes. ;) TotP was notorious for making bands who wanted to perform live mime. They kinda stopped it eventually, but I think it was way after this. I wouldn't judge anyone on a TotP "live" performance, basically. Fact is, they definitely perform live and were(?) fucking great when they did.

Omg I actually laughed out loud. You know - I always this was about IV drug use but I’m told it’s actually about the death penalty and lethal injection. It did always seem strange to me to think a drug PSA track would come from Mr. Breakfast in Vegas on cocaine and gin
Wasn't there an issue with copyright around this time? Tons of bands were sampling movies/speeches/riffs, reckon the BBC shat it and wouldn't let them play the Injected sample since it's ranting about the Jonestown massacre...
F A to do with The Jonestown Massacre. Sounds like your poisoned up good and proper matey. You had to be there to know The Score. Its all about transforming poison into medicine and not nEEding that shit to be happy anymore. Are u listening to me Or the forked tongued whisperings of middle england? YOU don't need that anymore! Be truly happy, Peace :)
Ian Buchanan Only just found about Jonestown and didn't this was related listened to praga khan loads of times aswell, just heard the sample of RW Schambach talking aboyt jim jones yep I would agree everything to do with Jonestown.
Gdyby nie pomyłka wokalistki, wyjście poza frazę, byłbym przekonany, że głos jest z playbacku, a jednak nie było tu harmonizerów, wyciągania wysokich partii efektami, czysty śpiew na żywo. Klasyka.
Actually if you listen she f***ed up - she went to sing one more "injected with a poison" but cut it short so I think it was live. TOTP rarely did live One of the complaints by many performers who refused to go on the show.
