This song will forever remind me of the movie “The Karate Kid.” It figured prominently in the movie soundtrack. Awesome 80s movie!
I was just about to say the same thing…🥰
Oh I forgot that, thanks for the memory :)
The TV sequel, Cobra Kai, has a great cover of the same song in the second season.
"Wax on, wax off."
*As a Karate Kid fan for over twenty years (having watched the first one in 1993, ten years after it was released), I can confirm this.* 👍🏾👊🏾 *The song was used perfectly in the film.*
"Robert De Niro's Waiting" and "Love in the 1st Degree" are another couple of great ones by Bananarama
Well, now I know what I'm listening to next! #blastfromthepast
Wow Jay & Amber! I didn't know that I needed a dose of Bananarama today! This song took me back to my fun-loving 20s. Word to the wise: Enjoy your youth because the years go by very quickly! Make plenty of lasting memories along the way.
So damn true :)
I may have to dig out the cd!
@Wilt Chamberlain is the GOAT - lol! We are the same age. I didn't smoke pot back then (believed the government disinformation campaigns), but am an occasional cannabis user now.
After 60 they skip by the decade. I take a nap and six months go by. It took forever to become a legal teenager, then to turn 21, woosh your 30, here comes 40, oops I mean 45. Then you hit 50 and slip into 60. c%
Agreed…I was also in my 20s in the 80s.
"I Heard A Rumor", "Love In The First Degree" and their fantastic cover of "Venus" (my favorite).
Omg love in the first degree 😍 I've not heard it in years. Thank you for reminding me.
Also, Robert De Niro's Waiting!
I think there was some dance moves with I Heard A Rumour
@@broniex14 you know them really don't you 😉
Nothing makes me happier than Bananarama, especially “I Heard a Rumor”. That song is a banger and lifts my spirits every time it comes on.
Great song.
They were a great example of why the 80s were awesome. The music just made you happy. I had a huge crush on Keren Woodard.
@@reesebn38 Literally still pop in my "Best of" album in when I'm in the mood. Whenever a group can have a solid 15+ block of tracks of solid bliss, you know they had a good career.
@lucky leprechaun For sure. I also love the video with its shifting settings and costumes. Admittedly, when they go western wear it makes my entire day. Lol
@lucky leprechaun For sure. With western wear I look to The 13th Warrior. It either kills you or brings you back to life. For Bananarama it’s definitely the latter.
The 80's was a magical decade. Seems like it was so long ago sometimes, but the music lives forever. I loved Bananarama. I remember how excited I was when my mom bought this on cassette for my birthday back in 1985
In some ways the 1980s were the last decade that a sense of innocence and optimism was available not only to children but to young adults as well.
The internet has all made us all cynics, skeptics and addicts
The eighties were 42-33 years ago… yes, it’s long ago… I wish, to hell, I was born in 1970; I’d be 13 when Thriller came out, 17 when Girls, Girls, Girls came out, amongst many other great tracks
I've just one the same .😉👍🥰🥰🥰
The 80s n 90s were the best times to grow up
This song is in The Karate Kid, a must see classic for the movie channel.
Completely agree!
Totally reminds me of The Karate Kid!! Lol
I can't hear this song without seeing scenes from Karate Kid in my head 😁
The beach scene definitely sets the tone for the rest of the movie. An all time favorite.
Yes, his first day of school
J & Amber, you'll love their "Venus", "Shy Boy", "Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye" and "It Ain't What You Do (It's the Way That You Do It)" (with Fun Boy Three) !!!
Fun Boy Three is The Specials (most) as such "Ghost Town" is a MUST hear.
Wasn’t “I eat cannibals” also Bananarama too? Oh and Fun boy 3, English Beat! The Specials! There’s a rabbit hole!
@@billdurfy2110 I eat cannibals is Toto Coelo
robert deniro’s waiting
You forgot "More than Physical"
My favourite by them. One of the UK best selling female bands with a lot of hits to choose from.
You should do “Stay” by Shakespeare’s Sister. The duo Siobhan formed after leaving Bananarama, it’s a great reaction moment
Yes, I love reactions to the "Stay" song!
I was about to suggest Shakespeare's Sister's Stay as well
I love that song!
That was a great song.
Stay is one of the best songs and Videos of the 90s, would love to see their reation.
This song and video absolutely screams 80’s, I’ve always loved it.
The 80's had some of the best music with so many hits. I wish I could go back to my young days in the 80's
Word I was born in 79 but I still remember the 80s fondly
This was early 80s.. Banana Rama had lots of hits and their still performing these days! They grew more and more sophisticated as time went on but still maintained that fun Girl Group thing.
.....and THEY'RE still performing.......illiterate idiot......
Try middle 80s ..it was released in 1984.
Memories! Reminds me of roller skate rinks, arcades as a kid in the 80s. 😆 They were cute new wave, funky dance pop band and good videos. Songs in the '80s and early '90s. Listen to more of their songs. Like "Venus" and "Only Your Love".
England's finest female trio band
Siobhan is Irish
@@lockandloadlikehell The group was formed in London so it's an English group regardless of where one of the members was born, Siobhan was always my favourite so I am not knocking her.
This London group was listed in my Guiness Book of Records as having had more charted recordings worldwide than any other all female group! I suppose they were really savvy young women, as one worked at the BBC and the other two were journalism students, when they formed the band.
I expect that Guinness record was overtaken by the Spice Girls?
Two were Bristolian
BANANARAMA are one of my favorite female groups!! Their breakout was "Venus" 💃 I love their song "I Heard a Rumour" 🎶 They also were part of the We Are The World ensemble. ❤️ keep smiling!! ☺️ *edited to note it was "Do They Know It's Christmas" sorry lol 🤦♂️😆🤣
They were on the “do they know it’s Christmas time” video
Isn`t one of the girls the partner of Andrew Ridgely?
@@Joy-qw3wm Yes. Karen Woodward, the brunette in the group is with the other guy from Wham! Lol
@@breese4425 oh that's right!! Thank you!! 🤦♂️🤣🤣
Venus was a hit but not their breakout, Cruel Summer was years earlier and a big hit.
One of them went onto a massive solo career, with one track "STAY" at No 1. For 8 weeks! Amazing song! 👏🙏❤️
That wasn't solo, it was a two-singer group called Shakespears Sister
you got that right! my fav ❤
Such a great song. I grew up in Denver and every Memorial Day weekend, in the '80s, radio stations would play this song incessantly to kick off summer.
Shakespear's Sister is a must (one former member of this band). "Hello Hello (Turn Your Radio On)" and "Stay".
Siobhan Fahey, the one in the white coveralls, is the one who formed Shakespeare's Sister.
Yep, "stay" is truly a masterpiece
They were also in the "super group" Band Aid that sang "Do They Know It's Christmas?". I believe you all reacted to that song last year.
THANK U THANK U THANK U! While many people were going crazy about The Go-Go’s and The Bangles over here back in the day, this American boy was madly in love with these girls across the pond! 🇬🇧 I had a Bananarama poster on my college dorm room wall! Great reaction to a catchy song by a fun group! Now check out my two favorite tracks by them, “I Heard a Rumour” and “Robert De Niro’s Waiting.” They actually got to meet and have a drink with De Niro after that latter song was released. By the way, the group is still together sounding good and looking beautiful, but it’s just two of them now, Sara and Keren. They are both lovely and hilarious! Thanks again for reacting to them. Y’all rock!
A few years ago, I saw a Robert De Niro movie at Alamo Drafthouse. Before the film, they played a Bananarama video for a song I never heard before: Robert De Niro's Waiting (Talking Italian). It's a catchy outlier.
Love this song! It dropped in ‘83.
Me too! Graduated HS in ‘83. So awesome!
Great song! Saw them in concert in the 80’s. They were pretty cool. They have a few great songs.
Pat Benatar was just inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Hope to hear her soon.
If I was pat I'd have rejected the rock & roll HOF.
They haven't been credible since they started inducting hip hop and pop bands over legit rock bands.
@@TheRetroManRandySavage I don’t think she or Neil cared too much either way. She said it was more important they got in for their kids.
You’re right though, they should have been inducted in many years ago.
@@aks4204 she definitely should've been in years ago. Same goes for Duran duran and judas priest.
I think def leppard and Joan Jett only got in about two years ago.
I hear they're putting eminem in this year smh. And Tupac and jay Z are already in there.
The only groups I agree with being in the HOF is the beastie boys and run dmc. Because they did cross over.
Iron maiden, motorhead, motley crue, bachman Turner overdrive, ozzy Osborne, New York dolls, and Boston are all missing from the HOF.
Well, last time i checked they was all still missing.
@@TheRetroManRandySavage I have zero respect for the R&R Hall of Fame due to reasons you have already mentioned.
Dolly Parton also got inducted this year? Nothing against Dolly, but WTF ? Nothing about her is R&R!! I’m sure she is a great person, & a great humanitarian, but she is a country singer. She herself tried backing out for just that reason. She belongs in The Country Music Hall of Fame.
That pisses me off even more, because I am not a fan of Country music. LoL 😂
@@aks4204 lol you're so right. They wouldn't induct someone like judas priest into country music's HOF. So dolly definitely shouldn't be in RnR. It's absolute madness. By being inclusive of all genre's they've gone and made themselves a laughing stock. 😂
That beat is SSSICK!! Whoever produce this song was ahead of their time!!!
This was featured in _The Karate Kid._ Such an awesome movie which I hope you guys watch sometime.
And while there are a handful of *Bananarama* songs you've yet to react to, "Shy Boy" has to be next (my favourite by them)!
Seems like the song was introduced in the movie because I remember hearing it in the movie before I heard it on the radio.
This was a cool song to cruise the strip on in the mid eighties. Their remake of Venus was their big hit though.
It's about time!! I can't believe it took you guys so long for this one. It's an icon is 80s song!
Now ,this is a coincidence ,as this tune was playing in the supermarket i was shopping in during the week ,and i`ve not been able to get it out of my head!! Great song ,and yet another which brings back so many memories...LOL I`ll be singing it in my sleep tonight! Thanks guys ,have a lovely weekend.,xx
Haha!!! I’m at the age now where the grocery store plays “my time” music and I find myself jamming down the aisles with my cart 😂
@@jacqueline4514 yes me too lol.x
Always liked this song, classic 80's. You should check out their cover of "Venus" and "I Heard A Rumor" is also good.
Banarama member Keren Woodward married Andrew Ridgeley, the lesser known Wham! member...Love this song. Banarama also sung backing vocals on "Do They Know It's Christmas?"
Another song from a British band in the 80s you might like is The Communards - Don't Leave Me This Way (with Sarah Jane Morris). Great dance song.
I’ve been trying to get them to do Bronski Beat. They need to hear Jimmy Somerville.
@@zivo24 Bronski Beat would be awesome too. Love their music.
Ivve suggested both Bronski Beat and Communards in the past.
So much fun dancing to this when it first came out. Canadian Grandma Lori . C. It was the big song in the first Karate Kid Movie of the 80s. I'm up dancing in my living room. Loving the memories.
A British band who filmed this video in NYC. After Bananarama, the dark haired Siobhan Fahey formed Shakespeare's Sister. Check out the song "Stay", very cool (and a bit creepy in a good way). Also check out the female band, Strawberry Switchblade, "Since Yesterday" and "Let Her Go" are two great songs.
I think they reacted to Stay a while back...
The dark haired on of the group is actually Keren Woodward
this song was everywhere 1985 such great memories of the summer of 85!!! great 80s smash. ; )
Please do "Turn Up The Radio" by Autograph. Very underrated song... 80's y'all!!!!!
Love this song.
No kidding! I love that song!!!
Right up my boy's alley!
Very '80s and hits on every hair metal stereotype.
Great pick Cindy 👏
I remember watching this video on MTV. One of my top 5 favorite songs of the 80's. The bass line is awesome. Everything about this song works.
One of the members, Siobhan Fahey, went on to form Shakespear's Sister with Marcella Detroit. They had some great songs like "Stay," "Hello (Turn your Radio On)," and "Goodbye Cruel World."
This song will always remind me of Daniel Sons first day of school...and the legendary band ACE OF BASE did a great cover of this song
This song was released in 1983 from the album High Life. This is one of their classic songs. 😎👌🎧
Other awesome songs of theirs are,
Shy Boy
It Ain't what you do it's the way that you do it, feat Fun Boys Three
Nathan Jones
Do Not Disturb
Venus
More Than A Physical
Trick Of The Night
All awesome songs, all 80's era ones in the list.😎👌🎧
This was the music that I lived my life by!! You could never go wrong with any songs from the 80s!!
YEEEESSSS! You guys are one of the first to react to this song, I am pretty sure I have been repping it pretty hard in your comments! THANK YOU, FAM!
And they made a lot of their songs together with the humorgroup Dawn and Sanders!❤❤❤
Venus. Will probably be your next pick from them. The cover was their biggest hit worldwide. Awesome reaction, love love Cruel Summer!
80's was big on female singers and female bands like - Go Go's - Bangles - Bananarama
The drums sound amazing in this song 🔥🔥🔥
This was one of my favorite songs growing up as a kid in the 90s
Amy Lee from Evanescence did a cover of this song during quarantine.
Bananarama formed in 1980, this song is '83
"Really saying something" with Fun Boy 3 was my favorite Bananarama song.
You did it! So glad you finally added these lovely English ladies to your knowledge base! "Cruel Summer" (released in 1983) has always been my favorite of theirs, but you would LOVE their cover of Shocking Blue's "Venus." "I Heard a Rumour" is also a banger. Their names are Sara Dallin, Keren Woodward, and Siobhan (pronounced sha-VAHN) Fahey. If you're interested, Ace of Base also did a great cover of this song. And finally... PLEASE do more Phil Collins!
Siobhan is Irish.
Is it sha-vahn or sha-bahn? She's Irish and sha-bahn sounds more Irish.
This song came out in 83
Always loved their songs
Yet more memories! More 80s, yes please.
I agree with most people, here.
"Venus" you've bound to have heard in lady's razor commercials.
"I Heard a Rumor" is another one.
But yeahhh, "Cruel Summer" with the original Karate Kid and Top Gun were pretty much defining moments from the 80s.
And, crap, forgot one more. Siobhan Fahey left this band a few years later to form Shakespears Sister and put out the song, "Stay". Another good one, though it's a tragic song.
Bananarama was big in the `80s...3 really cool girls. Met them one day..really nice. "I Heard A Rumor" is very nice also.
This is my favorite song by Bananarama but there’s another song called VENUS that’s worth a listen.
Fun fact: Back when this song hit the US charts, I was a tail gunner on the Space Shuttle Missions and as we geared up for the great skirmish of '88 on the DS, Bananarama did a live video shoot to wish us all luck and a safe reentry. None of us really knew who they were but after having Al Franken crack some jokes, we were happy to see pretty girls!
Got herpes that year. Good times.
Next Female Friday try the "Live" version of the Bangles "HAZY SHADE OF WINTER" ... it is KILLER!!!!
They did...
ruclips.net/video/8RCjLYp1J3A/видео.html
That is probably my favorite cover of any song. It really showcases the artists that they wanted to be.
They did it 7 months ago
"Venus" is my favorite Bananarama song!
Guys this is on the karate kid soundtrack a lot of great songs on this album you should check it out great job guys!
Yes!! This song always makes me think of Karate Kid which came out in 1984!
It is NOT on the soundtrack, I own it. It is of course a memorable song in the movie but it is not on the album, fact.
Check out the girls surfer movie 🍿🎥 Blue Crush
one of my wife’s favorite songs. she died from cancer in 2012, every summer has been a cruel summer ever since. "leaving me here on my own, now your gone,"
So sorry for your loss.❤
Amber, for Female Friday, you gotta do "Stay" by Shakespeare's Sister, that duo features members from Bananarama.
Oh wow! This song is one of those defining songs of my childhood. We moved to phoenix in the summer of 84 from a very small town in the midwest- and the line " the city is crowded, my friends are away and I'm on my own" pretty much summed up my life- LOL! such angst! Also, it was in the iconic original Karate Kid- movie- which was one of the highlights of that summer. What memories- love me some Ralph Macchio!
For Female Friday: Tina Turner--Proud Mary-- Live at Wembley. It is one of the greatest live performances ever. You watched her do Proud Mary back in the day, but this is absolutely amazing. It is long, but well worth it.
You mentioned the Go-Go's - there is a connection! In 1981 Terry Hall, Lynval Golding & Neville Staple left The Specials (you must do a 'British Ska' day/couple of days!) and formed the Fund Boy Three, releasing their first single, 'The Lunatics have Taken over The Asylum'.
In 1982 they helped to launch the career of Bananarama with their debut single "It Ain't What You Do its The Way That You Do It", following it with "Really Saying Something".
In 1983 the Fun Boy Three released their version of "Our Lips are Sealed", a song that Terry Hall co-wrote with Jane Wiedlin of the Go-Go's and which the Go-Go's had released in 1981 as their debut single.
Love this group, but Jay I really love the new Billy Idol tee, lol! Great as always 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I just live this "new wave" sound my mom made me listen to it all the time when I was younger Ace of Base
This is one of the songs that defines the 80's for me
Two of the girls meet when they were 3 yeras old, and the 3 girl they meet at fashion school, early 1980s. Early hits "Shy Boy", "Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye" and "Robert DeNiro`s waiting". Great Girls that are still making new music
Venus by Bananarama. Fire
They had a number of hits back in the 80's, early 90's. Also were backing vocalists and on the video for Do They Know It's Christmas, with Band Aid.
Mi canción favorita de ellas❤❤❤
This song actually came out in PART of The Karate Kid back in the 1980s.
Oh man this song makes me want to watch the karate kid again.
Bananarama had a very sweet Christmas song, "Baby It's Christmas Time"
"Aie a Mwana" by Bananarama is one to listen to... a more offbeat song that was big in the clubs back in the day but wasn't so much a top 40. Since you sometimes like to react to a little off the beaten path by well known groups, give this one a try.
The second 1/2 of the group Wham, Andrew Ridgley, married Keren Woodward from Bananarama. I know they split up up at one point, but I had heard they got back together. Hopefully they are still going strong. This song "Cruel Summer" was such a fun hit. Glad you got around to reacting to it. Thanks!
❤ Bananarama! While you’re at it please check out Exposé They have some great songs
Exposed to Love and Point of No Return should be reacted to! They were a synth-pop dance group but more specifically Freestyle Dance (not to be confused with Freestyle Rap). It was a popular genre in the 80s but for some reason it never gets reacted to by anyone.
Absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE the British bands!!!
Bananarama’s story is really interesting, celebrating 40 years this year. Their thing was it was all a bit of a mess. No styling, big budget, half assed dance routines, but very catchy pop songs and they wrote this about their friends being on Holiday and they had to promote in the US. Great reaction.
Glad you found this group. They have/ had some good tunes in their back catalogue. Enjoy.
DEFINITELY check out their version of Shocking Blue's "Venus"! You liked the original - I think theirs is even better!
Bananarama were huge in the 80’s in the UK, they had endless hits. Huge party animals too.
Please react to Expose', on "Female Friday".. They are a 3 girl group from the 80's and 90's that still tour to this day...😀😀 Try "Seasons Change", "Point Of No Return", "Come Go With Me", "I'll Say Goodbye For the Two of Us", and "Your Baby Never Looked Good In Blue"...😀😀
I have loved this song from the first time I heard it. It was released the same year I was born: 1984
I’ve always been confused as to why death row records didn’t find an artist to sample this bass line and hook. I feel like it could’ve been a total summer banger.
Great point!!!!
There's like a dozen rap songs that sample from this.
@@bg6b7bft oh.
Send me an example. I’d love to hear it.
@@brianoss8469
A rap group called Wordplay did a cover/remix that I liked, but I'll be darned if I can find a link to it anywhere.
I found a ton of other rap covers/samples while looking for it, but I haven't listened to them.
You have hit the trifecta of “girl groups” from the 80’s Bananarama, Go Go’s and Bangles. It was a cool time. Thanks for the reaction! Looking forward to the movie channel.
I feel sad every time I see the twin towers in this video. Great song from the '80's.
Loved this song in the summer heat and their outfits and hair were so coooool! This song came out 1983. I was 21, Yeah!!!!
This was the song that introduced the US to Bananarama in 83/84. Their biggest hit is Venus. You need to check out that one!
My favorite Bananarama song is “Venus.” You guys will love it and will probably recognize it. It’s been in a million shows and commercials. You’ll recognize it from the Venus razor commercials.😄 And wow! Gas was $1.48! Lol
Did you know that one of the singers in Bananarama called Siobhan Fahey, later joined Shakepears Sister. In your reaction that you did for their song Stay she is the long haired woman with the alto voice who playes the angle of death .
This came out the year I graduated high school 1983.
A few other songs you should check out, Venus and I heard a Rumor.
The BEST era for both movies and music.
This was released in the Summer of 1983 - took awhile for them to cross the Atlantic.
Bananarama were madly successful in the UK for a few years. Check out their duet with the Fun Boy Three. "He Was Really Saying Something"
Yep another 80's group from my childhood. This song is from 83. You'll also like their song VENUS. They're a British group started in 1980.
I loved bananarama so much and I still do ,they have a great new album out now "Masquerade "💖💖💖
Fun fact : When shooting the video in NYC ... The only dressing room for them was a local dive bar in the area frequented by truckers ...One trucker happened to offer them cocaine ... See them dancing extremely happily in some scenes and tired and mellow in others ? ... It is also speculated that their look here inspired Madonna to follow suit with her messy hair pulled back with a rag look ...
83 or 84 I believe and omg thank you!!!!! This is like in my top three groups of all time!!!! I adore them so much and they’re still together !!! And got boys and sounding great as ever
The Girl with the dark hair is Siobhan Fahey, who plays death in the video of Stay by Shakespeares Sister. She used to be married to Dave Stewart of the Eurythmics.
