This was a pivotal jam in the evolution of Chicago House Music. Clubs were pumping this in '81 when the sound was called "New Wave"...which evntually became "Preppie Dance" and then finally HOUSE. CHICAGO HOUSE 4EVAHHH!!!
I was born in 1983 and I almost grew with this song. My father still owns the original LP I used to listen to...when I was little I spent days and nights only listening to it. I just jumped back 20 years whoa!
Back in the early 80's living in Norwalk, CA., this song was heard in all the backyard parties and BBQ's. Those days, the music was called 21 and over, the genre was a cousin to 80's disco. FYI
I ve got the "history of house music" too!! You can be proud friend. Being a french myself I can tell you that Belgian electronic music is definitely a reference for french people!
Loving this low budget video! ROFL I also love Telex, though I had a wonderfully New wavo/Romo look in my mind for this vid. Still wonderful, no matter what though. :) Cutting edge for 79.
Words aren't enough for describe the admiration that I still feel for this great person, I can't do anything but be grateful for everything that he gave us in all those years. Grazie Marc.
En Mèxico se conocieron grupos y temas estupendos como èste gracias a Romeo Herrera el Dios de la radiodifusiòn de todos los tiempos. Este tema aqui lo dio a conocer en 1986 y es algo de lo mejor que he escuchado(muy adelantado a su tiempo). Mil gracias y saludos a quien sube todo èste material.
Esto es música, no las leseras que hacen ahora, por dios porque la damás juventud no es como yo y le gusta esta música, para poder bailar con una chica esta canción.
Die grote beesten van diesellocs rijden nog steeds rond voor infrastructuurwerken( type 62). Alle diesellocs zijn nu meestal type 77, grijs met geel kleurtje. Alé soit, prachtig nummer van Telex.
C'était Marc Moulin (1942-2008) était un pianiste, compositeur, animateur et producteur radio, humoriste, auteur, chroniqueur et touche-à-tout belge. Il est le père du remixeur "Deep house" Denis Moulin AKA La Malice. Pianiste de formation, fondateur du groupe de jazz fusion Placebo (groupe jazz fusion) et du groupe électronique Telex. Il était un des artistes majeurs de la scène Lounge. Marc Moulin est décédé le 26 septembre 2008 d'un cancer foudroyant de la gorge.
I'm puzzled reading that some people,even from Belgium didn't know that it existed a French version as well.I'm from Spain,and I first saw this video at the age of 12,in 1982,in a Spanish program about modern music.The speaker said they represented Belgium in Eurovision,and suddenly I remembered them.The fact is that I didn't know it existed an English version since today!!!
Love it !! I have all of there songs on 12" singles, every time I put there songs on every one would always ask where can they get it from and who are they..
Etrangement ressemblant avec les titres du premier album de visage (1980) :) Marc Moulin a participé a pas mal de titres electro dans le début des 80's il a notament travaillé avec Alain Chamfort et Lio.
This is one of the first 45s I ever bought, along with The Buggles' "VKARS." It still gives me the chills when I hear it. The French version is undoubtedly better.
@xiho Belgium had a lively post-punk and new-wave scene in the beginning of the eighties. Visit Antwerp and Brussels, there's plenty of second hand vinyl.
@103959770979 you hit the target spot on there these guys were there all together early PURE synth ...matbe vangelis sparx and hawkwind even if memory serves me correctly :) m49 ps dont forget YELLO most/all middle aged men by then as well
And what about the Manneken Pis? The moules farcies? I love Belgium! The cuisine is superb, the architecture very elegant and heartwarming (think Grand Place in Brussels or around the canals in Bruges), and the women quite attractive. Also important, it's the "capital" of Europe!

R.I.P.. Beste Belgische song aller tijden. Way ahead of it's time!
MAN THANKS GOD I FOUND THIS SONG. IT TOOK ME A FEW YEARS TO FIND IT BECAUSE I DID'NT KNOW THE SONG'S NAME. THAT WAS GOOD MUSIC.
Thumbs up if you still listen to this in 2012!
This was a pivotal jam in the evolution of Chicago House Music. Clubs were pumping this in '81 when the sound was called "New Wave"...which evntually became "Preppie Dance" and then finally HOUSE. CHICAGO HOUSE 4EVAHHH!!!
THERE IS ONLY ONE THING FOR THIS KIND OF MUSIC. OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have this album. I was so excited when I got it in the mail. Hurrah for the internet.
СУПЕР слышал один раз в жизни давно искал огромное спасибо
My favourit one:) ! ! ! Pioneers of sound!!! If there is God on earth, it's TELEX!!! Great post, thank you!
Never gets old, never gets boring.
I was born in 1983 and I almost grew with this song. My father still owns the original LP I used to listen to...when I was little I spent days and nights only listening to it. I just jumped back 20 years whoa!
Fabulous to see this clip for the first time. Love Telex
Excellent !!! From Belgium ! Telex I love It!
My god.... Telex, Kraftwerk, Giorgio moroder... those times never come back.... Nice flashback, thank you.
Rest in Peace, Marc!! And thanks for your lovely music!
I was lookig for this son for the longest and found it heard it back in1984 inthe clubs
This is one of the greatest synthy tunes of all time.
This song was ahead of its time. The closest thing we had in the US to Telex was Electric Light Orchestra.
I bought the record for this the other day. Its so good. especially their cover of ca plane pour moi. Moscow disco is one of my favourites.
Back in the early 80's living in Norwalk, CA., this song was heard in all the backyard parties and BBQ's. Those days, the music was called 21 and over, the genre was a cousin to 80's disco. FYI
What a fantastic song!
fantastic song of 80's
I ve got the "history of house music" too!!
You can be proud friend. Being a french myself I can tell you that Belgian electronic music is definitely a reference for french people!
Telex was a huge influence to me back in early 80's. Thank you for your great music R.I.P. Marc Moulin
I just realized this video was posted around the time Marc was still with us 🥹🥹🥹
Still have the 12" single of this. Brilliant.
Stupenda canzone, mi fa rivivere 1980 con Mara; Rino; e la campania a l'Odeon.
Loving this low budget video! ROFL I also love Telex, though I had a wonderfully New wavo/Romo look in my mind for this vid. Still wonderful, no matter what though. :) Cutting edge for 79.
I had never heard this until today, and I immediately realized where the "train whistle" sound from "Faithfull" by Fantom came from.
magnifica questa canzone!
Thank u Thank u Thank u 4 posting this!!! This was an awesome House track in Chicago!!! Mellodee123
I love that synth lead in the background.
Los años que no veía este video!!!! (La última vez debe haber sido allá por 1980, en "SuperShow Infantil", con Alberto Muney y Berugo Carámbula...)
Words aren't enough for describe the admiration that I still feel for this great person, I can't do anything but be grateful for everything that he gave us in all those years.
Grazie Marc.
This is awesome pioneering Synth Pop.

"En route vers de nouvelles aventures"
was recorded in English by Telex too. It was called "My Future". It was on the LP 'sex'
Printemps 1979 ; je suis en seconde, heureux et amoureux. Comme c'est loin ...
Esto es música, no las leseras que hacen ahora, por dios porque la damás juventud no es como yo y le gusta esta música, para poder bailar con una chica esta canción.
Quel son génial !
beautiful song!
Amazing track. I was just listening to it on Jeff Mills Choice and was wondering who they were. I can't believe there is a video! Super stuff kommrad!
Excellent son , vive telex !!!

It's so modern and futuristic.

belle époque quand meme, avec ces zik disjonctées, moi j'adore
Me trae unos recuerdos fantasticos de mi juventud! It brings back fantastic memories from my youth!

The Grandfathers of Trance!!!!!
@vichoste I like the sound of the vacuum cleaner in the morning when hungover better than Beiber but thumbs up anyway.
J'adore trop le mixe electro-disco. C'est vraiment génial ♥
Brilliant!
Les meilleurs.
Qué lindo tema! Lo escucho bastante. Saludos a ustedes los belgas! Muy linda música hacen.
Thank you! I knew I recognized that from something.
17 year old video as of 2024. This is some old stuff
Forever Marc!
The three of them are like bank robbers in a Jean Piere Melville film in this music video! XD
Excellente :)
very cool song..if you like this check out "men without hats nationale 07.telex was pretty obscure in states..great band.and funny
Love it !! I have all of there songs on 12" singles, every time I put there songs on every one would always ask where can they get it from and who are they..
Awesome music from the 1980's.
That looks like Belgium trains and locomotives to me.
Thanks for posting.

Love ur video♥

This sounds more modern than the current modern pop crap. Thumbs up to the true Synth Pop icons.
Que tema tan pegadizo, ché.
Awesome
I COULD DIE.
for this.
hooray for telex! ^^
Those were the days my friends... haha
perfect
@xiho Belgium had a lively post-punk and new-wave scene in the beginning of the eighties. Visit Antwerp and Brussels, there's plenty of second hand vinyl.
got this song on LP in mint condition.
I didn't know there was a French version of this song!
No irony.
This music anticipated techno by 10 years.
vero,riconosciute subito
lloro al verlo
indeed!
i have this fantastic 45 r.p.m. !!!! :-)
THIS SONG IS THE SHIZZZNIQ !!!
@103959770979 you hit the target spot on there these guys were there all together early PURE synth ...matbe vangelis sparx and hawkwind even if memory serves me correctly :) m49
ps dont forget YELLO
most/all middle aged men by then as well
@Jer0mmel Its not disco, its techno!!! pure and simple
grandfather of synthpop
And what about the Manneken Pis? The moules farcies? I love Belgium! The cuisine is superb, the architecture very elegant and heartwarming (think Grand Place in Brussels or around the canals in Bruges), and the women quite attractive. Also important, it's the "capital" of Europe!
So, the song "Faithfull" by Fantom uses this original track as a sample? Sweet.
Yes, the French had their own as well. This goes very nicely with Moroder's "Chase."
got this album in 79 sad how gen Y will probably never find where most of thier stuff is stolen from....m49
@RODALCO2007 These are old Belgian locomotives and trains yes!
