I was recently at an 80ies Roof-Top-Party in Bangkok ant the DJ played some KLF stuff in his set.The folks all i their 20/30ies goes totally bonkers. Rel good music never gets old.
Newbi in a small town work , didnt see the time to jump in weekend bus trip to Thessaloniki...Troll was the club and we were in an absolute trance enjoying this always refreshing music...the time is always...Wanda ❤❤❤❤
Dance started to come in its very early inception in 1988, then the summer of acid in 1989, it grew again. By 1990, it was in its third phase like here, it's fourth and final phase was in 1992 - 1994. I would say that KLF and this tune were 3 year's plus ahead of their time. This song spawned eurodance, 2 unlimited, The Shamen and even The Prodigy.
@@tigerfeet2813 At least here in the US, there was no Metro available with a Turbo. But the Metro’s predecessor (Chevy Sprint) WAS available with a turbo.
I remember that I saw this clip for the first time on TV (no internet at that time) and I immediately wanted to buy their album as an audio cassette, some time after I had a panic attack and their music really helped me overcome my pain and feel stronger, I was listening all the time from morning to night, i still listening to their songs at the présent, this band is just mythical, r.i.p Ricardo da Force, almost 10 years he's gone...
It's Grim Up North on Drummond and Cauty's hoodies - roughly a year and a half before they (as the JAMS) had a top 10 single with the song of that name. They had the whole mythology planned out well.
If you want to bring politics into it he inherited 14yrs of Tory destruction... Personally I'd rather stick with the music... And if you were there you will know we raved our way out of Tory destruction then too!
I got The White Room on cassette from a buddy in high school and never looked back. Then, decades later, at my first (of many) Blue Man Group shows, I was like.... HOLY SHIT!!
young cressida there wasnt playing the keytar she was there cause she liked to be in cautys videos being his wife and all she liked spending time with hubby. You can tell they loved performing even if drummond hated the music industry :)
@@TheMadmagik It at the same time also was a protest against actually not being allowed to play life. (People had to lipsync at TOP, also basically impossible in synth music, Orbital also went there with instruments unplugged)
Then the producers had enough and forced everyone to sing live. Cue Moby shouting "GO!" in an apparent Birmingham accent and a radom friend of the band Shaft embarrassing herself and the rave industry by trying to sing the sample "gonna make it better" (It's burned into my brain for ever)
Kicking out trance and house with live instruments is hopefully the next big global music trend. I've been waiting over 20 years to get a band that does it properly .... Check out the showhawks, trance anthems on two acoustic guitars... And here, when you have the keyboard player upfront playing (I know it's a backing track) the vibe is so much better. Great tune great projects and great guys ....
Cressida Cauty. is really into it and having a good time, which lets the audience have one. You can hear her shouting, "Mu! Mu," even though she is not miked.
the KLF are the Justified Ancients of MU. If you understand then you have a certain higher conscience that we share as brother's and sister's. If you cannot and will not begin to understand any of this then you may have already fallen victim. We are the people and the time has come, Hail Discordia!! We are a peaceful, loving and caring civilization that live among you and i only hope for you to one day step into our skins and see what we see. This following list of comments are an indicator of our number, Number of our fallen family member's and those not yet enlightened to which i say and to all "We've got to teach and everything we learn will point to the fact that time is eternal" the KLF, also known as the Justified Ancients of Mu Mu, further known as the JAMMS......over and out...
The US wouldn’t get it, they could maybe touch on the Hacienda a little but a warehouse full of kids off their tits listening to Acid/Hardcore all night till the next morning, Novas, metros and Escorts parked in a field in the middle of nowhere and police on their way. Nope, I cant see it being a hit over there.
The KLF's music is as compelling as it was when I first heard/saw it on MTV. Who is the woman with red hair on the right? She is also in the "Last Train to Trancentral" video with a red American Indian headdress, and in the "What Time Is Love" video in a red devil outfit. She is cool.
Their "dance performance" here has always made me wanna crack up. The lead singer here too, who is he and what was that with a cane and afro wig all about?! The song was too short too. Before you knew it he was on "The Final Chapter"!
The BBC still at a point where they actually thought that showing a group of people miming to what was (very obviously) samples, would make the viewer believe that it was really live singing........
Simply put, the beeb are run by old farts who are slow to change. They simply did not understand, it was the music, we couldnt care less who made it, who sang it.

Who´s listening this masterpiece in 2024?

The KLF deserve their own biopic movie.
Scour the BBC for the six part radio show How To Burn A Million Quid. Starring Paul Higgins (The Thick Of It) as Bill Drummond
Much like every other music biopic, it would end up being an appalling piece of shit.
@@ki11y0urs3lf that's really good that.
new movie out yesterday on iTunes / Apple TV - 'who killed the klf?'
@@hamupinhere when we're strange is rather good

This sound is so iconic. Love it!
Miss this kind of music. KLF was in the zone to make you dance!
KLF were absolutely brilliant just remember driving around in my mates metro mg turbo 😂 KLF blasting arms out the window thinking we was the bizness
Metro and turbo in same sentence...😂😂 brilliant.

30 Years and still rocks !
Fantastici
175 years from now is still going to rock

I miss /the Jams / Timelords/ KLF...bring them back!
Ahead of their time and timeless.
Back to react, enough is enough
Let me ask you a question ...
... What Time Is Love?
The original trolls. Still love them, bow down all those who worship at the church of the KLF
It's Grim Up North on Drummond and Cauty's hoodies - roughly a year and a half before they (as the JAMS) had a top 10 single with the song of that name. They had the whole mythology planned out well.
Weren't tinkering around with The Black Room at the time? I think It's Grim Up North was a track intended for that unreleased album.
I’m still rocking to these tunes, the KLF were class.
KLF Forever🎉🎉🎉
Its grim everywhere under starmer, Good to remember happier times and banging music.
If you want to bring politics into it he inherited 14yrs of Tory destruction... Personally I'd rather stick with the music... And if you were there you will know we raved our way out of Tory destruction then too!

Still epic! Timeless.
That bassline!😍
303 will never die.
Just the best ever.
RIP My friend Thanks for the memories
"it's grim up North"
Клф моя юность!
I remember seeing this and wanting one of those It's Grim Up North jackets. I still do.
I was knocking out shapes to this when I was 18. Today I’m a Grandma to an 11 year old. WTF 😳
Very best song,1990!!!
I love Mark Goodier's reaction... (He had fun, too!)
He called it a 'happening' record. Exactly what music should be. Still sounds great today as it did then.
Slave to the rave,
Rave to the grave!
Sis my goodness..I was just looking at the KLF manual how to write a hit....I mean literally jus was looking at it then I seen this........ whoa
I would feel so disillusioned if any of those instruments were plugged in and turned on.
😂😂😂
This might be the first time I've seen anyone play air _keytar_
Notice how the keytars arent plugged in. Man everyone was taking the piss out of Top Of The Pops and especially the rules for performances, i love it
young cressida there wasnt playing the keytar she was there cause she liked to be in cautys videos being his wife and all she liked spending time with hubby. You can tell they loved performing even if drummond hated the music industry :)

I could easily listen to 10 mins of '' Mu ! Mu !''.
Love the un-ironic Mark Goodier post - Chris Morris parody !
The KLF deserve their own holodeck on the Enterprise/Orville!
Migliori al mondo! La canzone e' fantastica! Mi ricorda i locali ad isola Rodos dove mettevano sempre questa canzone e noi ballavano come matti.
Classic and awesome!
Ah the Keytar, what an instrument, reminds me of paul hardcastle and soul to soul days
Classic, one of the best bands and the crowd in 'top of the pops' really dot get it at that moment in time 😁
These were just like a breath of fresh air in the early 90s. What's going on with Top Of The Pops on BBC 4 now? Aren't they showing 1990 or what?
Thank you 😁🎶❤😁...Thank You Lord ✝️ for the Tingles 🙏❤✝️
I still have this on vinyl.
esta musica es de mis tiempos y se escuchaba en los 90s. solo en tv...
Best version.
на кассете слушал эту песню. вместе с ней были и другие исполнители cher, spike, haddaway
I'm disappointed the crowd didn't throw their fists up and scream "MU MU!"
That performance is pure parody genius
It’s G👀D to see youngsters having a good time ✋🌪🎶

And here, when you have the keyboard player upfront playing (I know it's a backing track) the vibe is so much better. Great tune great projects and great guys ....
There are no live instruments on that stage.
Yeah but it's Top of the Pops...Notorious for having backing tracks to promote the version for sale. Live was a different animal.
Vauu nice song 👌👌👌👍👍👍

Stand by the JAMM's (still grim up north!!!) Bring on HS2
How faggy
Cressida
She's a Dr now doing serious biology research or something. ♥ Her in the America video version!
What time is love 🤘🤘🤘🤘
I was 6 when I herd this. Still awsome and a good remedy to Lockdown!
Siempre impresionado con ellos,la hembra canta como una diosa
This is when the phrase, "OFF DA HOOK" came into existence.
Just Excellent for today!
Superb .
1987-1991 UK music scene was much fresher than the stale US scene. missed those times
No way in hell.
But those years 87 through 91 USA had the number one group in the world Guns N Roses
Belgium and Germany were amazing to in those years for electronic music
@@Blackadder75 R and S records....

Semplicemente Stupendi!!!
Fun fact it was only 2 guys, 2 white guys with a wild innovative sound ahead of it time . The rest of the "group" just for show.🤯
This was really something special
This sounded like the apocalypse to nine-year-old me.
Один из первых евроденс-треков, причем с клубной техно-основой да ещё с психоделическими рифами и Acid-окислением...
About 1330 today
What time is love
Good old days of rave. Mainstream was good but the club experience was suminelse😳🥳

I know they are miming but wow what a performance
Damm great sound 👍
Such a choone and it's my birthday on that date 30/08!!
unbelievable
I was watching this on a TOTP repeat a few weeks ago.
lol me too on bbc four
lmao i love when the artists trolll the top of the pops. pushing random buttons on the mixer @ 0:53

Jimmy Cauty's wife
Thanks a lot for the I.D. Does Cauty's wife play any instruments on KLF tracks?@@sheepdavis
Cressidaaaaaaaa :)
Cressida looking hot as always
Top of the Pops really struggled on directing these tracks for live personal appearances.
*Anyone got an E's?*
DE AH QUI DE CHILE SALUDO DE THE KLF LOVE
MU.. MU!
I wanna see ya SWEAT...playin' that air keytar! Still gonna stand by the JAMs, nonetheless!
That's a real Keytar that's not plugged in ("air" refers to what the instrument's made of, not what powers it)
Their "dance performance" here has always made me wanna crack up. The lead singer here too, who is he and what was that with a cane and afro wig all about?!
The song was too short too. Before you knew it he was on "The Final Chapter"!
Ah the old keyboard/guitar. what happened to them?
The name KLF has a ring to it. I've always said the brand k Swiss along with their logo should of been bigger brand. K, mmmm... Lol
Who was the girl on the keyboard guitar?
Annie Lennox
Jimmy Cauty's wife
whats that second instrument he is playing up the back...oh it doesn't actually make sound its an audio mixer! haha classic
Transition at 01:05 is epic...
Bring back KLF
the born of trance

A crowd full of Stock Aitken and Waterman disciples cheer. Are they really aware of Mumu? I’m not so sure.
