I was never much into ‘80’s music…into Aussie Rock & the classics of ‘70’s’,60’s & 50’s…if someone set up a Club with ‘80’s performers,it would kick arse…can’t believe I’m saying it,but I think it’s time to bring back the ‘80’s…
We can never go back, but we can do better than we are-I was just a kid in the 1980s-It’s odd knowing that sometime after 2005 music took a nosedive into a scalding lava pit. We can do better. We’ve the same bodies, minds, and abilities as generations past.
What a terrific performance!... I live in Switzerland and I was a 14 years old fan of both Bronski Beat and Soft Cell at the time. I can only regret having missed this live show. Three years ago I visited the hall where this was filmed (a gambling house in the Montreux Casino building)...it was emotional being there and recalling this performance.
@@liamdan1620 I remember watching this during the Christmas break on BBC1 in 1985 they also did love and money from the age of consent album.. A master at work.. saw him in Leeds performing at millenium Square, caught him warming up prior to concert.. Still aced it
Amazing upload !!! Came out in 1986 and both these gay icons mean the world to me. Pay attention Gen Z this is how talented singers sound without autotune and layering 🎱
This version of IFL just soars. Jimmy really blows the roof off the building and it seems like Marc reels him back. What an incredible cover and two incredible singers.
37years on, this is still in my playlist... This is my inspiration 😉.... Remember back when I'm still in pre school, rushing back from school just to get my TAPE n TAPE recorder ready to recorded this down and play over and over and over again and again.... Bring a smile on my face n tear in my eyes watching this all over again.... Still a inspiration after all these years.... 🥺🥺
First time I see this, and I'm from the eighties. Now this is a party!!! Just awesome. Anyone who doesn't move to this performance in someway or another must be dead inside.
Marc was peaking vocally around this time. I remember seeing him live in 85 or something, just after releasing Stories of Johnny, and he was great. His tone was so nice and sang so effortlessly.
Thank you so much for uploading this clip! What soaring, soulful, stunning voices! So different, but they go so well together. Amazing artists. I love the saucy little grin Marc Almond gives the camera at 0:33. And both of them swinging the mic wires in the most carefree manner and rocking their hips sultrily! Oh my oh my! Just adore it. And them, of course! Jimmy and Marc - a match made in heaven!🎶
I love the way Marc looks at the camera.and how Jimmy dances absolutely brilliant I do my housework while dancing around it really put me out of a bad mood luv luv u both ❤xxx 4:32
So I'm not the only one who noticed him on stage here! His official bio mentions him having joined Bronski Beat as a sax player, but Discogs doesn't have any credits to his name for any studio recordings by that band. Perhaps he was brought on purely for live shows.
I remember seeing this so vividly on BBC2 think it was on a bank holiday. So fortunate that my band @alllivingfear got to make a record with the great Mr Bronski. This is a classic clip not least because its Bronski and Communards together for I think the only time with the Rev on Clarinet.
To be fair.... I digitised the VHS tape and upscaled the video 'nicely' (even if I say so myself) and then uploaded to RUclips who annoyingly put adverts on it that they make money on..... I'm free.... As they say!

Amazing rendition of an amazing song...goose bumps up and down my spine.
Jimmy,s dance is epic and marc,s voice is so lovely, and such nice guys!
Amazing upload !!! Came out in 1986 and both these gay icons mean the world to me. Pay attention Gen Z this is how talented singers sound without autotune and layering 🎱
Going back to 1977 when Donna Summers did it. Not goofy like these guys...
Фу
I am 20 gen z and i know what is like to sing without autotune gen z isnt always people under 10 years old just saying 😂😂
Plenty of reverb tho
“Comparison is the thief of joy.”

Such an amazing live performance! Definitely NO auto tune here! This was back when there was still raw talent in music!
Try going back even further for the original by Donna Summers 😉
I love how Jimmy enjoyed himself and danced all the way, great performance!
He was at his own rave.... having fun ❤
Bring these days back please !!!!!
♥
Fantastic. Love them both.
This version of IFL just soars. Jimmy really blows the roof off the building and it seems like Marc reels him back. What an incredible cover and two incredible singers.
The energy in this live ❤
Oh man.... This was an act of passion... Astonishing!!!!.. And that goofy dance of Jimmy is a signature move hehe
I am as straight as a plumb line but I love love this.
Wow!!!! ❤❤❤это просто невероятно!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
This is flawless. Love them both so much.
Epic with savage vocals.

The good old days!!!!

When I first put it on I didn't think their voices would work together but actually they work great, like chocolate and ice cream.
Marc was peaking vocally around this time. I remember seeing him live in 85 or something, just after releasing Stories of Johnny, and he was great. His tone was so nice and sang so effortlessly.
2024, I’m driving, my teenkids are choosing the music on their phones, 99% is late 70’s to Early 90’s 😁😁
Absolument extraordinaire… jamais vu cette performance mais merci car c’était exceptionnel!
Miss the 80s so much. These 2 are legends
80s forever
Agreed. I was 15 in 1980. The best decade musically.
Das waren noch geile Musikzeiten
Amazing!!!! Marc Almond... WOW!!!!
Absolutely stunning 👍🏼👍🏼 damn that is a masterpiece
My childhood
I just love this and I love Marc Almond, saw him not too long ago and he's still amazing
wish he would come to Italy for some dates
This is far beyond…and far after…… Great..!!!

Let’s go Montreaux, 1985. Putting this on loop!
Fantastic rendition of “I Feel Love” by Bronski Beat. Those guys knocked it out of the park!
Jimmy and Marc.. Gen X loves you . Thanks for so many memories
this is GOLD!
Richard Cole there too on clarinet. No mime here kids just pure genius at work. Viva Bronski Beat.
un des meilleurs live que j ai vu
They're both amazing!
Amazing Dance Music!!!!Andrea from Italy
Due mostri della musica❤❤
Magnífico espectáculo en vivo. Buenísimos Artistas
My God. This is utterly fantastic. God bless them all. Thank you so much for this.
And let's also thank Donna Summers from 1977!
Jimmy Tintin is unique with his vocals and even his dancing is enjoyable. Whether he is with Bronski beat, Communnards or solo. God bless🙏
I love his way of dancing
He was a HUGE star in France back in the day. Indeed he looks like Tintin 😅
One of the best duo performances
J adore les deux chanteurs et Marc est magistral avec son refrain et sa voix
I love the way Marc looks at the camera.and how Jimmy dances absolutely brilliant I do my housework while dancing around it really put me out of a bad mood luv luv u both ❤xxx 4:32
Fun to see that Richard Coles was around the band (1:59) , before he and Sommerville formed the Communards
HOW FUCKING BAD ASS IS THIS! DAAAMMMNN!
Great performance and excellent cover !
Моток провода, блеск рубашки Марка, танцы Джимми ,ритм, ребята на клавишах-все это чудо⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐💥💥💥💥💥
Marc Almond and Richard Cole as guests of Bronski Beat ---- wonderful
Jimmy's voice is enchanting to me❤️❤️
What a duet❤️❤️
Chills. Remember this performance well. It turned me onto "Johnny Remember Me" which was unknown in the US. Excellent!
Never knew Richard Coles was playing Saxophone with Bronski Beat before forming The Communards with Jimmy! Something new every day :)
So I'm not the only one who noticed him on stage here! His official bio mentions him having joined Bronski Beat as a sax player, but Discogs doesn't have any credits to his name for any studio recordings by that band. Perhaps he was brought on purely for live shows.
@@thelonglines I don't suppose you're the same JLG who used to be a regular on alt music depeche-mode ? :)
Соммервиль и Алмонд - это что то необыкновенное.
Marc❤
Mind-blowing vocals!
The short guy has the perfect voice for this track!
Haha.... The short guy.
@@TravisBickle1963 JS
I just realized how funny this is because they both look short 😂
I didn't know his name either, I just know one song from Bronski Beat, he does have a great voice .
His name is Jimmy Somerville. Bronski Beat and The Communards are the bands he was most prevalent in.
Marc Almond.... 👍👍👍👌
Danced to this in those sweaty, smokey and smelly disco's in the 80's. Fkn awesome to be young back then!
Spot on voices, and still today! Marc sings like a young boy🎉❤ never misses a note.
C'est magique ça n'existe plus de nos jours
Great! ❤
I don't care at all whether they are gay! Whether lesbians or gays, they made the best music at that time!
Thinking what great singer and artist Marc Almond would become since then and the wonderful career he was facing makes me cry…
gorgeous
I think this has always been one of my favorite songs with jimmy and Marc of all time
Marc Almond is so cool here!
Fantastic performance, great versión!
The energy of the crowd is immaculate
Quel merveilleux duo, un des meilleurs qui soient !
Muita qualidade nessas 2 vozes ❤80 Jimmy X Marc

Brilliant 🤩🤩
Wow. Almond at his imperious best.
Two of my favorite singers of all time certainly.
Massive performance
Esto es el mejor dueto de SynthPop New Wave de los 80s.
❤❤❤❤❤
Je vous adore
Demonios, que honor escuchar a Marc Almond cantando esta rolita setentera! Gracias por este video, en verdad es una joyita!
Esto si es música, ohhh por Dios que recuerdos Más maravillosos de mi juventud, gracias por esta música

Hermosa época de mi vida.
Pure HI NRG vibes ❤
This is everything
Lol. Carrying around all that mic cord. Love Marc and Jimmy!
Wow amazing ❤

Isn’t this before the Communards, when Jimmy was part of Bronski Beat?
Everyone needs to thank YOU TUBE for this one.

Люблю, люблю!!!!!! Я женщина. Музыка супер. Джимми Сомервиль любовь моя.
Superb !!
