For some unknown reason I felt the need to listen to Howard Jones tonight. Haven't herd this since the 80s. It didn't disapoint. Class
me too - today
Not a great 80s fan if you haven't heard this since the 80s. You been in the jail?
My favorite from Howard Jones.
One of the true pioneers of electronic music; not credited enough. Was lucky enough to see him at the Hammersmith Odeon in December 1984!
Agreeed, as good as he did he should have done better so under appreciated he changed the synth sound into his own and produced completely new way of his own,
how this guy didn't not only get a number 1 but quite a few number 1s
He has so many great hits that although did well should have done better than they already did
The keyboard wizard
I'm rediscovering Howard, Fantastic music, great voice and range!! This is the first I've heard of this song, so cool.😊
He sounds great, I mean really good.
Howard Jones is one of my favorite singers of all time. So him in concert last back in the late 1990s. He came out and he played all the instruments by self, there was no one else and he did a wonderful job. Is truly a one-man band.
Thank you for being an amazing fan ❤😊
@howardjonesmusic- Howard, you're truly in my top category of gifted
singers & musicians, long live your enjoyment in what you do, and do it well! ❤
He’s an 80’s legend!!
What a talent.
Wow. He's still fantastic :-o I can't believe how he's right on spot on every note! Plus: I love this song.
Perfectly put 🥰
Loved this song from the '80's. The '80's artists are still great, and timeless.
Love it, so positive, I want to throw off my mental chains. The synth solo is delish.
A true digital master at his best, thanks Howard.
Anthem of my youth. I will be eternally grateful for your talent and the joy it brought me. All the best!
You’re still young.
@@johnmc3862 58 My friend, but you're only as old as you feel.
Totally raw and live hard to hit those notes at his age but he does ! Brilliant and nostalgic
brings back loads of child hood memories great times heard it on the radio when he was on absolute 80s nice one
That was brilliant, I could cry just listening to this...in a good way.
I keep listening to this!
Such a message ! 💛🎀✨
Uno de los mejores compositores de musica electronica sin duda.
timeless classic, just superb, well done MR JONES.......

to the LOVE BOAT ONONE bug us in the room.
I don't care if he messed up a little, this was great! What a sound!
May have messed up. But unlike todays artist at least he did sing live.
the keyboard guy in the back messed up, he was not paying attention, Howard looked his way twice and twice he failed to start!
@@TerryGrancho Hey, we found the guy from the 'Make Love Not Warcraft' episode of South Park!! I wondered what he did for a day job!
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!!!
Man, I want to see this guy play live.
What a cool studio performance! Howards vocal range is amazing. ❤
that guy is still awesome, i was 15 when i heard this song in 83.
i was 11! and I'm a synth addict guy! still..
funny that it was released in 1984, but I get it
10
This song was such a hit back then.
Me too, lol
This is still BRILLIANT! ❤️🍻
A musical genius!
この軽快なメロディーがなんとも心地いい😊
Saw Howard Jones TONIGHT at Hartwood Acres in Pittsburgh, Free Concert. Best 2 hours of my LIFE!
free ? how come ? a promotion stunt ?
@@mikeoddball4478 They do concerts in the Park for free in my area
Genius ..
Loved it cool, live version 👌
top work. class act
I've heard this song for most of my life. I've listened to Mr. Howard since the 80s, but I just never knew it was him singing this song. What a surprise!
Always loved him s voice and songs, he's always been a one man band. I saw him play in Chicago about 22 years ago. He still looks good and Is as fabulous as ever.
@Howard Jone you're welcome, your music always brings me joy. You are blessed.
The keyboard sample sound is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
The man!!!!
Holy heck this was an amaaazing version!!!
Howard was feelin it!
Another great performance...love Howard to bits...love his shirt as well!! LOL He's such a professional musician to say the least!! We were all blessed the day he was born!!!
my inner fan girl is screaming and waving a lit cigarette lighter, love this...he still rocks so much I love it!
Still got it, and still rocking synths! xXx
Howard Jones rocks 🌹
Should be called "Ride Your Metal Trains" so that its easier for me to google!! Howard tops all his songs with this pure gold 80's beat, everyone hit the dance floor
The boys of the 80s…. Just can’t beat them. Brilliant!
What a performance! I've been fortunate enough to see him perform live on many occasions. Three festivals (one of which I met him, although I was a little drunk, wearing a pink t shirt with stickers on my niplles and beer stains and he was still such a gent), his Revolution of The Heart tour (managed to have a brief chat with Robin Boult at that one. What an awesome guitarist) and my personal favourite at Queens Hall near to where he grew up. It was a tiny, intimate 120 seater venue and I was sat about 10 feet away from him. He did the whole set with just one keyboard and was phenomenal. It was also his first ever public performance of Ordinary Heroes.
It was Howard who inspired me to start learning piano again after a 20 year gap and also the inspiration to me taking on music production as a hobby.
My first piano solo piece was also Howard inspired as I started it with the last chord of Hide & Seek.
I hope that one day I can inspire at least one person to learn to play music, in the way he has for so many others.
I immediately feel 21 again… HoJo is timeless!! Thank you for your gift and sharing it with the world!!! ❤ Love You!!!
Love Howard!
wonderful thank you for this
So many great memories ❤️🙏🏿
love a bit of new song from mr jones......but that drummer WOW!!!!!
this is my favorite HJ song. its one of my favorites from the eighties period. such a great song
What a legend!!!
I Love Howard!!!!!
Un gran tema el cual me trae muchos recuerdos en aquella etapa escolar. la cancion a mi parecer la mejor version en 12 inch por el toque del sintetizador digno de la epoca en todo su apogeo por los grupos en este genero. diste un buen punto con este video Saludos
I loved the way he respects his song. There are many others that just destroy their songs because they found so called wisdom that makes them change the way they play music. I don't want to mention names (sting)
great performance
Legend
amazing
every time i see this i break out my old Vynil Copy (howard as many others were a big influence on my own music when i did stuff using the Commodore Amiga) , love this
this is so freakin' good
Great song
That man can rock a keytar. I saw him in 1985 (?) at the Forum in LA. Amazing show.
Thankyou Thankyouverymuch Howard🎉 kayoko
Nice. Thanks RUclips that has recommended me visit it. I also play synthesiser music , Greetings from Poland
Great sound !
Awesome
Fantastic!!!
UN MITO !!!!!!!
exceptional stuff..
Brilliant...
Now more than ever, I beg everyone...please be open...Howard said it 40 years ago...come on
I've been waiting for so long
To come here now and sing this song
Oh Don't be fooled by what you see
Don't be fooled by what you hear, whoa
This is a song to all of my friends
They take the challenge to their hearts
Challenging preconceived ideas
Saying goodbye to long standing fears
Don't crack up
Bend your brain
See both sides
Throw off your mental chains
Incredible.
Miss the Synth .This was like medication for me.
his clocked but this song has so many memories best songs ever are 80’s songs
Oh yeah!!!...without doubt 80's Diiibest songs ever !!!!
Wow, this version is even better than the original from four decades ago 😍
No. Don't mess with the original.
@@speedy692agreeed, yes this version is great love the keyboard sounds here new take,
but nothing beats the original for sure no questions
This is so cool
Absolute LEGEND. Spiky hair of the 80s toned down. Nevertheless still a tour de force. Everytime I see Howard Jones, I get transported to my school days in the 1980s where Top Of The Pops was King. Thank you Howard Jones for being THAT TIME MACHINE.
Spiky hair toned down, the baggies are gone, and the dancer who used to perform with him is conspicuous by his absence. But Howard is still Howard and he is, was and always will be a very talented gentleman.
This guy is so talented its not even funny - an underrated legend

Listen:
I was in class and I had to fart really badly. I couldn’t hold it so I struggled but successfully let it out silently. Much to my surprise - and to my abject horror - I shit my pants. It was this gooey warm stuff with the consistency of mayonnaise and it went up and down into my butt crack.
And to make it all worse, it smelled REALLY bad and really strong, like baby shit, like rotten eggs, and it wafted all around the room.
So I just figured “what the fuck” and I just pissed my pants, too.
Then I dropped that class.
Damn fine voice!
I am an acoustics guitar player so I always playing blues jazz country and more but I don't know why I like this song and sound very much.
Chills at start ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💜💜💜💜💜👌👍
Legend.
Aah... the 80's
What a liberating moment it is to listen to this beautiful piece of art at this rap and crap times of today. OMG, take me back to the 80's!!!!
Top!
perfect
memories of being in school in the 80's. Still awesome now 30 years later.
No doubt...he is one of the best synthplayer of all time !
I feel bad because I completely lost touch with hi music what an amazing artist and the music was so much better in the 80s !
Yes!!!💫✨🎀🤗💞💓💟
All that great synth, and no mime! 🙏
Whoo who who , don’t crack up people x
yep
what a song... amazing..
though I hope those stood around learn to loosen up and go with the flow a bit more.. just the lass behind the bar jigging away! hehe
Anyone know what kind of drums those are?
quality lead synth sound...
This former 80s teen think this man’s music is 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
@HowardJone-sn8ie Thanks, Howard
I thought the midi guy on glasses could not play Kbrds but he really does ...
God those modern synths sound so thin compared to the old analogue gear he originally used, they might be more reliable but not a patch on the old stuff eh, the guy is still great though, at least he sounds authentic 👍🏻
Agreed 100% these things just don't cut it. Jp8..juno60..msq700 & minimoog and the guy was a god to me!
SlowBloke Since i wrote that comment i also realized on the album that i'm listening to at the moment he used a lot of DX7 as well which obviously isn't analogue but still sounds a lot better than the new gear he's playing here, of course some if it is down to the way it's been recorded but that Bass line on what is Love sounds fantastic. I liked the sound of Human's Lib that much i just bought a couple of DX7's to put in my studio 👍
@@rhiannonstudios we have similar tastes. That bass line sound is probably my fav synth sound ever :) dx7 could be horribly tinny in the wrong hands (very much a classic in the right hands ofcourse) but even in the wrong hands that sounded better than the stuff we get today imo
I totally agree. I have analogue and digi. synths, I use daws and vsts. But this wasn't the essence of Howard jones that I remember. Seeing a macbook running Ableton on every setup, including Howards made me feel really sad. I KNOW tech moves on, but HJ was a huge influence on me during my teen years. i'm still chasing a Jupiter 8, if I can find someone to buy a kidney. While I would have loved to see this performance using the original gear and sequencers, I guess it comes down to practicality. I get my live analogue, sequenced fix these days from Kebu.
Look at you two idiots spewing the usual nonsense. The patches sound fine. People are actually performing here. Try lugging around and performing with a JP-8 and MSQ-700 and see where it gets you. I dare you. Oh, right. By bad. You don't perform at all.
What drum machine is used on this song? Want to know what the conga drums are from in this song.
im not sure,but on the album version the congas are ev. from the roland 808...but like i said,im not sure.
the rest maybe Drumulator,Oberheim Dmx or Linn drum????
LtdBoomer Congas definitely not from an 808 because they are sampled. Could be from an Emu Drumulator because it was used extensively on this album and in this song.
Ian Wilson
Yes,thats right.maybe the Emu.
+Apollo Zero Emu Drumulator. I remember reading a comment that Howard Jones brought had to take an older Drumulator on tour to play his Human’s Lib material. The keyboard, of course, was a Roland Jupiter-8 (there was even a picture of a JP-8 on the single’s cover)
Where is Jed the mime artist?
freakn icon! everyone today try’s to replica his sound
