Take me back to those days when I didn't have a care in the world. I miss the 80s and I'm so glad that I lived through that time with the glorious music.
It seems like yesterday that I was playing this 45 hanging out with this girl. Suddenly, it's 40 years after! Terry Hall, thanks for all the wonderful music, rest in peace 🙏.
Fun Boy Three were really underrated as a band. The songwriting was fantastic and the lyrics were Catchy and loaded with stories and humour. I just loved the many sound layers too. The 80s were surely golden musically.
Fun boy 3, especially Terry Hall were a vastly underrated bunch of musicians. As a person, Terry Hall was a true gent. survivor and an incredibly nice person to talk too
I discovered The Specials watching a John Hughes movie Sixteen Candles (Song:Little Bitch); best thing that ever could of happen to me. Love The Specials, Fun Boy Three and The Colourfield. RIP John Hughes and Terry Hall
Just heard the sad news ,loved terrys songs and everyone in the bands great times and will never be forgotten by me.thoughts at moment to his family and band mates Rip TERRY.
I’m new to Fun Boy Three. I’m a former American 80s teenager, but somehow I missed this really great group. I would have been a fan back then, but better late than never. This is a great song.
Its not the materialism, the clothes, the music nor the sunny days of innocent youth we miss. And certainly not the schools. It is the sense that we were safe from the speed of change. Time eased its way around our watches, and they were the only bit of tech we owned. How sad kids today will never experience even a fleeting glance at a world without fear.
Terry Hall always reminds me of Robert Del Naja from Massive Attack. And Robert Del Naja always reminds me of Terry Hall. There's some visual and aural connective tissue between the two that links them together in my mind, if I can put it rather pretentiously like that. Don't know why exactly. They look a little alike maybe - but it's more to do with a quiet/shy and rather sad/introspective aura that they both give off. There's a painful introversion there that is moving yet also faintly disturbing. All the best songs are sad, I always find. RIP Terry Hall. One of the really good ones.
It’s crazy when you look at all these 80’s retrospective music shows and they simply bypass THIS as just one example of utter excellence? God bless the underground that made it to the foreground, dismissed by the shitheads but embedded into the lives of us that live ❤
Such a class tune from a great band (I remember taping this from the radio in my bedroom back in the day and what struck me were the lyrics) So real and carved a real memory for me that will last forever. RIP TERRY HALL and thank you for some wonderful memories of my youth growing up in Coventry! I can't remember why this video wasn't broadcast on the telly at the time because I would have loved to have seen it.Great upload!
Bought this single the very week it was released. In those days you could get lucky and get a picture disc or limited edition open up ep style version!! 82-83 was an amazing time for a young lad. That’s all I’ll say 🤜🤛

This takes me back to the Happy 80s 53 now but I'm sure many 50 plus remember them Happy Days Never to Be Repeated
It really was a golden era of music, so many different styles

RIP Terry. Been a fan since 1982. Fun Boy Three was a life-changing group for 12 year old me in Kentucky.
That was a beautiful message

So sad to learn of Terry’s passing, a true genius in terms of melody, lyrics and passion. Rest easy Sir.
Rip Terry hall,, Thanks for the music, so many of us who were teenages in early 80s went on to live this song out In real life. .
Rip wonderful wonderful terry
One of the best underrated and overlooked classics from the 80s.
The other heavily underrated ones are
" The Triffids " from Australia.
.
not by me, I still love the voice of Terry Hall, and the beauty and depth of all of their songs ...
Beautiful man. Beautiful song. Thank you, Terry. 😢
Brilliantly constructed song with great lyrics, massively underated.
i agree 100 percent this is brill
Truth.
Underrated? The most over used word on RUclips.
RIP Terry Hall, you and the specials were a big part of my youth, taken too young
What can I say I'm devastated,,his lyrics were second to none,,his records were my youth,,we are all going to miss you Terry sleep easy legend x
Masterclass RIP mate !!

Oh, I would've loved to talk with him...
Def a survivor. The abuse he had forced on him. Such a brave man to endure that
Its amazing how many generations love Terry and everyone else involved in his projects. Truely seeing the test of time. Just pure genius and delivery.

Terry Hall......RIP. A musical genius.
Consequences alter cases, broken noses alter faces. RIP❤️⚘️ Truly saddened.
The world has managed to get even darker than it already was. You will missed forever, Terry.

I bought Waiting on vinyl around 1985. I still have it. Tour de force. RIP Terry Hall.
I have loved this song and the album "Waiting" since I was 14 in 1982... RIP Terry...
Omg that drum beat is outstanding
Yeah as a young teen in the early 80’s I wanted to put my banana in her fruit bowl. She was a hottie
RIP Terry Hall. Of all the amazing songs you did, this is always one of my favourites.
My favourite too!
I’m new to Fun Boy Three. I’m a former American 80s teenager, but somehow I missed this really great group. I would have been a fan back then, but better late than never. This is a great song.

Your comment is so profound I can't even begin to express how much I appreciate and agree with it!
We had Walkmans and ghetto blasters too and the fear of nuclear war was a daily constant.

Sorry, my comment above is confused shite. Terry Hall (and all of his musical comrades) were fucking ace ❤
Great, great song off a great album. Haunting backing vocals just add so much. Rest easy Terry Hall and thank you.
From The Specials, Fun Boy 3, Bananarama, Colourfield ....What an exceptional talent..

I always thought it was one of Bowie's best tunes! ❤❤❤ Heartfealt performance. Guess I now own both copies on vynil.
Superb song. He really was beginning to find his feet as a unique lyricist with songs like this
C’était un Tube à l’époque…🎯🙏👍⛩
So good...👍👍
Legend passes 🙏🏻
Pure poetry gonna have to get another LP 👍🕺🕺
Beautiful voice
Can't beat a pop song with a tango beat!
💜💜💜🙏🏾💜💜 in the tunnel of love brilliant choonnnnn
Best music, everything was better. Today's world is horrible, it probably hits gen X harder because we know what it was like living in a better time.
