The lead singer also sings "The Neverending Story" from the movie. Great song especially the long version of it !!! 🎵 👍
"Neverending Story" is a must watch for the whole Rob Squad. The kids will LOVE IT! And sure, the song's pretty cool, too.
That lead singer Limahl was pretty prominent for a while in the mid-eighties, like around '84-'85.
@@davidcall5430 They WILL love it. Except for that one scene that STILL shreds my heart when I watch it...
Hi. Go to play Neverending Story
@@rsccostarica long version is a must- great dancing music 🎶
This song has the best bassline of the 80s and is the main driver of this song. Nick Beggs is a genius.
The Bassist of This band is Nick Beggs, he's a very underrated and underappreciated Bassist
I agree and you can hear his playing on other Kaja albums.
Yeah man, I forgot how tasty the bass is on this song! Good stuff!
As a bass player, I definitely know who Nick Beggs is. A very great bass player.
Agreed.
@@pica6888 indeed, he's amongst the numerous Bassists who've inspired me to take up playing Bass
This is a band that was discovered by Duran Duran keyboardist Nick Rhodes (who produced their first album, where this song comes from); there is a definite Duran vibe to them, isn't there?
I wonder if Nick discovered them because they both used the same hair stylist! Love that voice. Not sure if they’ll like it, but they should do “Neverending Story” next!
@@andyrunton ; No lie- the band thanked their hairdressers on this album. :o
Most definitely a Duran Duran vibe, and I hear a bit of George Michael in the lead singer 😊
@@kellypedersen6590 Lol! 😂 Nick always was the dark and mysterious keyboard player with the crazy hair!
Oh right, interesting! They're English too right? This song was very popular on our Aussie music shows
"Too Shy" was our Jam back in the Summer of 1983 ! You couldn't escape this Song on the Radio or MTV ! It was #1 in five Countries including Japan and was #5 in the US. It was also a Top 10 Hit in about a dozen other countries. KajaGooGoo is a very under rated band.
80's British pop was just so good.
The singer, Limahl, is the sweetest person! He sent my best friend a personalized Christmas card this year, and he's super engaged with his fans online.
Aww ❤️
That's pretty cool
Met him in Hampstead, and he was singing away to himself and just smiled at me. Nice guy
Must have been someone else.
Did your friend buy the card from his online store? As he usually only sends them as ordered autographs from there.
One of the best things about 80s music is the prominent bass lines that made it great for dancing
Limahl had such an amazing voice.
The lead singer, Limahl, had a HUGE hit with “Neverending Story”. Please check that out!
i love that song and also beautiful movie
This song is shit, Neverending Story is one of my all time favourite songs.
Since you love the 80's, how about a reaction to The Fixx, if you haven't already done so. Try "Saved by Zero" or "One Thing Leads to Another."
That's probably one of the best bass lines ever. And the player was only 21 yo at the time. He's amazing
You should react to "Wouldn't It Be Good" by Nik Kershaw from this time period of the mid-1980's
I emphatically agree with your suggestion. It's a must listen.
Theres an amazing newer performance with Howard Jones♥️
YES
Definitely. Hopefully they do react to Nik Kershaw
The Riddle
I wouldn't let the sun go down
Wouldn't it be good
how about a bit of Howard Jones
OMG I was IN LOVEEEEE with the lead singer, Limahl. He sang the theme song to the movie Neverending STory!!!
I had this cassette tape. LOL Im old.
This 1983 song was their only radio hit in the US, but their lead singer Limahl had a hit the following year with the title song from a movie soundtrack, mentioned elsewhere in the comments.
For another synth-driven eighties radio hit, try Visage's "Fade to Grey" from the year 1980.
Baby Bash - Suga Suga
Mark Morrison - Return of the Mac
Outkast- I love the way you move
Expose - let me be the one
Definitely "Fade to Grey" and maybe "Vienna" by Ultravox
It may have been their only US hit, but, I really enjoyed the whole album.
Colibri1 I never knew he sang the song in Never Ending Story... That's pretty cool to know.
Hadn't heard this track for many many years until I stumbled across this video. And wow, yes it's a great pop song, but with much older ears I now appreciate just how brave & complex it is as a pop song. Yes it's got a great vocal & pop hooks all the way through, but how many pop songs these day start with a killer jazz-bass run for 46 seconds before the main vocal comes in?! And have a complex minor key main verse, before a huge chord change to the bridge and another huge chord change to the vocal?! And a middle 8 with Fripp-esque guitars??! Hats off.
Yea I was in high school when this came out, great catchy pop tune, this bass player was fabulous.
So many great, danceable pop songs from this era to hit. ABC-Look Of Love, Scritti Politti-Perfect Way, Breakfast Club-Right On Track, Culture Club-Miss Me Blind, INXS-What You Need, Jane Child-Don’t Want To Fall In Love just to name a few.
Great suggestions. The band Nu Shooz "I Can't Wait", OMD's "So In Love", The Models "Out Of Touch, Out Of Time" (which I played heavily along with INXS), Belouis Some "Imagination" are some other 80's songs often forgotten.
So in love with 80's, my youth😢❤❤❤❤❤
Classic early 80's tune. It makes an appearance in the movie "The Wedding Singer". It brings back great childhood memories. Check out 99 Red Balloons/Luftballoons by the German act Nena. Also "In A Big Country" by the Scottish band Big Country are fantastic songs that were released within a year of this song.
gotta ♥ early 80s new wave pop
great great song, this takes me back to my 80's , the best time of my life
There are a lot of cool bands like this:
Ebn Ozn - A E I O U Sometimes Y
Matthew Wilder - Break My Stride
Howard Jones - Like to Get to Know You Well
Tones on Tail - Go!
Thompson Twins - We are Detective
Yello - Oh Yeah!
XTC -Senses Working Overtime
Robyn Hitchcock - Balloon Man
Deep diving the 80s is the best!
Goody Two Shoes by Adam Ant?
They did do a review of Matthew Wilder.
EBN-OZN .OMG that Song was so weird but quirky !
That's a line-up!!
ebn ozn and tones on tail so underrated………..really great songs
I've always loved this song! On and off I go around singing it in my head "too shy shy hush hush eye to eye"! I love the lead singers hair!😎
This song was produced by "Nick Rhodes" Duran Duran Keyboardist
I love limahls voice
Kajagoogoo's "Too Shy" peaked @ #5 on Billboard's Top 100 in 1983; later the lead singer Limahl scored a #17 solo hit in 1985 with the theme to "Never Ending Story" (music by Giorgio Moroder).
i love that song and also beautiful movie
Big hit here in Australia too
It was a number 1 here in the UK back in January 1983, along with a number of other European nations.
Christopher Hamill, known professionally as Limahl (Lead Singer) is the singer of the movie & Song The "NeverEnding Story" The film follows a boy who happens upon a magical book that tells of a young warrior who is given the task of stopping the Nothing ... a "The Nothing," is a darkness that destroys everything. Great movie. You would need to watch it first before you let the girls watch. You should make the call when it would be age appropriate for them. I loved the story.
The book was even better!!
Huh. I was today years old when I realized that "Limahl" is an anagram for "Hamill".
One of my favorite movies all time ❤️
@@DJHolte me too!😂😂😂
I love the movie!
Oh I had such a crush on Limahl! Have to listen to his Never ending story too!!
Love this one! If memory serves, the lead singer left after this one hit. He went solo as Limahl. So, they were a one hit wonder, at least here in the states. Another great 80s song you would like is 'Der Kommissar' by After the Fire.
Der Kommisar the original by Falco
and then Limahl went on to sing Never Ending Story from the movie of the same name. For me they were too much of a 80's fluff group for me. Jackie, I might be wrong, I thought Der Kommisar was by Falco
Falco only
He was fired from the band. They made a huge mistake!
@@steveeverett1736 Falco did the original but After the Fire had the big hit with it in America.
Please check out Limahl’s ‘Neverending Story’ 🙏 (he’s the singer in Kajagoogoo as pointed out by many of the commenters)
Level 42 "Something About You" might be a one hit wonder you would enjoy if you liked this song.
How about Life in a Northern Town by Dream Academy?
@@chriso6719 duuuuude great song, great great song
Level 42 are not one hit wonders! Maybe in the USA but not Britain and Europe.
Haircut 100 is a good one from this time, too.
@@sarablack2547 yeah but lets be honest y'all don't count. Just kidding 😂 😜
All joking aside, I loved that whole CD.
Kajagoogoo was discovered by Nick Rhodes keyboardist of Duran Duran he produced their first album this song is from that album.
Oh my gosh the memories! lol thanks for the reaction guys
this was everyone's jam in the 80s
Wow, this is the first song you have reacted to that I've never heard. As you say " a banger".
Thank you for finally reacting to it! Total banger! and Nick Beggs on that bass!!
*one of my faves from the 80s... CRUSHED ON Limahl so hard! this song brings back ton of memories!*
You two guys are so sweet and cool. Love your enthusiasm.
For 80s, please do some Haircut 100! Preferably "Favourite Shirts (Boy Meets Girl)."
Saturday Night Fever for Rob and Flashdance for Amber. BeeGees and great music and dance from Flashdance. Enjoy
Growing up in the 70s and 80s had gems like this for school disco (in the UK). I was 11 in 1983 for this. Still found time to dance with a young lady called Rachel Thomas lol. Kajagoogoo other song was 'Big Apple' about New York as seen by these young Brit guys. Glad u love Brit 80s bands. Next try King 'Love and Pride'.
Howard Jones Everlasting Love great 80’s pop
Finally! A reaction to this highly underrated song. Nick Beggs on bass, incredibly underrated - though highly respected by his peers.
pdbass has a good analysis of Nick's bass work on this song. Nick actually commented on it. "Check it out".
80’s music is the absolute best. Even our one hit wonders were great
Kajagoogoo weren't a One Hit Wonder - They had three Top 10s in the UK.
And Limahl of course went on to have another big hit solo with Never Ending Story though that incredibly only made it to #4 rather than #1 like Too Shy.
I love this song! Also check out The Politics of Dancing by The Re-Flex, Saved By Zero by The Fixx, and Dance Hall Days by Wang Chung
Yes yes yesss. Especially Saved By Zero and Wang Chung!!!
One Thing Leads To Another and Red Skies are also great as well by The FIXX
For anyone who watches American Horror Story, you might remember the season called 1984 where they were going to hold a music festival and the band Kajagoogoo were all murdered because Richard Ramirez the night stalker killed them for the devil, and they had sold their souls to the devil. lol But I LOVE this song!!!!
Whenever I watch you react to these songs I’m extremely thankful that my parents introduced me to these songs but I wish they’d also recorded me listening to them because me at 25 would like to see them. Oh to be able to hear them for the first time again! ❤️🇬🇧
The extended version of that song is awesome, they spend time playing in that kind-of- jazz fusion groove.
Another band you havent reacted to is Glass Tiger. They are from Canada and one of my favorite music groups. Their biggest hits: "Don't Forget me when I'm gone" and "Someday".
19 year-old bass player, Nick Beggs, now playing bass with Howard Jones. So odd to have heard this in the 8os, because while it was pop, it was super complex. This song was produced by Nick Rhodes of Duran Duran, who came up with the middle 8. Brilliant song, one of the real gems of the 80s.. they broke up shortly afterwards…because they didn’t get along with the singer, Limahl. But they did have a reunion in VH1, in the 90s or early 2000s. Worth watching on RUclips.
Speaking of one hit wonder Murray Head -One Night in Bangkok,The Tube-She’s a Beauty
Typo - The Tubes👍
From the vintage days of MTV with the British Invasion, big hair and synthesizers going for days. Videos like this went into heavy rotation for months on MTV and stayed there in the early 80's.
It's May 2022, and this song is still a banger for sure‼️ 80's "New Wave" genre was a sound unlike no other 😎👍🏼
Joe Jackson has a couple great 80's songs. Stepping Out and Is She Really Going Out With Him. Awesome piano on both tunes.
Great song! If you want another popular song that gets overlooked at times, listen to "Oh L'Amour" by Erasure.
This is one of the soundtracks of my adolescence, being 15 years old at that time was the best, it was a music that was not yet done using computers, where the artists were real musicians
I'm waiting for a group named Too Shy to sing a song called, "Kajagoogoo".
Too SHY SHY HUSH Hush Move a little closer girl. Song you imediatly know when you hear it. Plays in your head. Exactly.!!!!!
I haven't heard this in year's! Always liked it.. ✌❤🎶
I remember sitting by my mom's stereo waiting to hit record on the cassette tape when this song came on in the summer 1983. Think I may still have this tape but it most be in a box somewhere. Great times. I think we had Our house on the same tape and send me an angle. Oh the memories. Sad how time flies by so fast as you get older. 53 now going on 54 later this year. Ugh.
This always reminded me of Culture Club. I could totally see Boy George singing this.
They were HUGE in Europe for about 5 years. The singer Limahl enjoyed a little longer career as a solo artist with a few big hits. He is still a liked celebrity. Their bassist is a highest class musician.
New wave funky, poppy punk band, typical synth heavy band of the late '70s, '80s, early '90s. Fun band from Germany or UK. This was a big hit. They also had other good videos, songs like "Ooh To be Ah", see that video! I was a child when they were big, '80s. Singer Limahl also sang "The Neverending Story" duet with a female singer, for that movie, same title. See the video. Also a big song.
Love this song, was played in the Dance club..Smooth funky and jazzy pop
That drum sound is called "Gated reverb" invented and made popular by Phil Collins after he left Genesis
It was actually when he was recording the drums for intruder for peter gabriel I believe.
Well, he didn't left Genesis, he just made some solo albums, then came back to Genesis when they made their "Invisible touch" album in 1986, way after Kajagoogoo splitted.
And Joseph is right, the gated reverb drum was used by Phil collins with Peter Gabriel "Intruder" in 1979, before Genesis recorded the "Duke" album with Phil collins.
Anyway, the drums on "Too shy" sound more like Simmons elctronic drums than gated reverb drums. They were really a staple of 1980's pop scene.
Amber just summed up the 80s: "something grabbed your attention, and took you away somewhere for awhile, and dropped you off somewhere else."
YEP. "Whuuut?"... "Okay!".. "That was really fun, but I gotta run" and on to the next big thing.
The lead singer Limahl sang the theme song of the 80's movie Never Ending Story. Other songs of theirs to check out
Never Ending Story
Shouldn't Do That
Ooh To Be Ah
Turn Your Back On Me.
See what you think guys.😎🎸👌
Now theres' a memory, I love that movie
@@juliewalshaw4334 Yeah me to was always one of my faves.
@@emmahowells8334 mine too! Pure escapism, I love that in a movie.
@@juliewalshaw4334 Exactly.👌
They had another big song “Never Ending Story” from the movie by the same name
No....sorry. Not a Kajagoogoo song. Hamill (Limahl) recorded it AFTER he was fired from Kajagoogoo.
@@pmb4200 no need to be sorry (not sure why that was even included) it doesn’t matter - it’s Kajagoogoo - a lame band with lame music.
Such an 80s sound. Gotta love it!
another one of those 80's songs that had that very cool vibe-man the 80's were amazing with the 2nd British Invasion-it was a fun time to be young.
Quintessential 80s Pop. Move and sing along.
Totally 80s! Always good. Alternative/Indie Pop
Yeah this song has a great bass line !!!
This song was huge when I was in middle school. Height of 89s pop/punk. Oh how I loved it.
Great song.This came out the same year as one of my favourite synth/pop songs called Major Tom by German Peter Schilling.Its the same Major Tom as in Bowie's Space Oddity.
I just watched your reaction to this song and was so delighted you listened to it. I requested you both listen and review this song. You put a big smile on my face. This song is a mellow but out there song. Not over powering or too outrageous. Use to jam to this on my roller skates. Thanks for listening to this. 😉
Loved this song!!
Great 80's tune ... always brings back tons of fantastic memories!!
This song is such *SOLID* 80's gold!! C'mon, how could anyone not like this tune??!! Great GROOVE and nostalgic voice, keys, and drums!!
Plus - it's fun!!
Wow!! Awesome!! A movie reaction to Dirty Dancing!!?? Can't wait for that!! 😎🙂 @Rob Squad Reactions
Love the sounds of the 80's. Big bass, great keyboard sounds, good guitar riffs and those electronic drum beats are so defining of an era of music. A one hit wonder, but oh what a hit!
A great song from the 80's and definitely an ear worm! In my top 5 favorite 80's songs.
Kajagoogoo are still playing and touring to this day.
The woman playing the catering woman is Dennis Miller's wife Carolyn (Ali) Espley, the song was also produced by Duran Duran keyboardist Nick Rhodes, this was the one of the best songs 40 years ago, top notch song
Songs you need to do that you'd absolutely LOVE
"Voices Carry" by Til' Tuesday for female Friday
"High Enough" by Damn Yankees
"Get It On (Bang A Gong)" by The Power Station
"Bad Case of Loving You (Doctor Doctor)" by Robert Palmer
This one was huge. And they had one of the worlds most skilled bass player..
If you like this band, should really try Icehouse - Hey Little Girl.
The sound of the UK. New wave pop, synth pop. Great band. Perfect song.
It is really 80s full on.
Great song, but Icehouse are Aussie. 😁
This was an early MTV super hit. Totally love this English. The bass line alone.....
Those 80's songs with great slap bass riffs.
The typical musical sound of the 80`s ...reminds me of my high school days =)
Nick Beggs bass playing is the driving force in this song for me!
He played the "stick" (bass/guitar instrument) in John Paul Jones' live trio back around 2001 or so.
100%.
@@montag4516 Chapman Stick.
It was fun watching your reaction to one of my favorite songs. Glad you enjoyed it. "Too Shy" has the best basslines in 80's pop music IMO. Five different distinct lines through-out the song. Nick Beggs is an awesome bass player.
I liked this one from my High School days but as memory serves, I believe they were one hit wonders.
Only in the US and New Wave stations here played a lot of their Songs off their "White Feathers" debut Album.
If you want a fun experience, check out VH!'s "Bands Reunited". They brought all 5 of these guys back together, after 20 years of not playing, for a one night concert and they NAILED it....an excellent expose of the bands, the members and the reunion. Funny show. Incredible concert. Chris Hamill (Anagram "Limahl") never lost his voice, not a note.
Their downfall was believing they were turning into a "teeny band" so they FIRED front man Limahl! The band died immediately afterwards. Fired the wrong guy. Should have fired their manager....
Unique selection. I was a Huge fan for a summer….
I play all 80s and I have gotten a lot of people into them. All it took was 1 time for my co worker to hear this song and she loved it. It's her favorite song so much that she asked her mom and grandma if they knew the song :)
She's 19 and her mom didn't know the song but her grandma did
With all due respect to your reaction, I enjoyed and grew up with this group and genre. I realise this is a different subject Amber, when you next do “female Fridays” check out Grace Jones “My Jamacan Guy” or any other song. An iconic black female model/singer/actor
The lead singer is Limahl born Christopher Hamill, he had a hit with ‘The Never Ending Story’ If you liked this song, you might like the Australian classic Too Young for Promises by Koo De Tah. ‘Too Young for Promises’ was released in 1985 in Australia and peaked at No.6. The female singer has a beautiful voice, very underrated in my humble opinion. Please have a listen to ‘Too Young for Promises’ I would love your reactions on it, it’s one of my favs from the 1980s.
I haven't heard this in years .what a blast from the past.
Loved this one when it first came out. 😁
1983 was the best time to be a ten-year old listening to top 40 radio for the first time. So much variety, so much ear candy! I had no idea how lucky I was.
I saw them live around '84 and they were great. Their album "White Feathers" is well worth listening to.
One of my favourite albums. Still gets played regularly
