- Ignatius Jones (born Jaun Ignacio Trápaga in 1957, Singalong, Manila, Philippines) is an Australian events director, journalist, actor and previously fronted the shock rock band Jimmy and the Boys. From 1976 to 1982 the group pioneered the use of shock theatrics in Australia. By the end of the 1970s they were "one of the most popular live acts on the Australian scene" with Jones performing as lead vocalist and contortionist alongside Joylene Thornbird Hairmouth (born William O'Riordan) on keyboards and vocals as a kitsch, transvestite. In 1981 they scored their only top 10 single with "They Won't Let My Girlfriend Talk to Me", which was written by Split Enz leader, Tim Finn. In 1982 after their disbandment, Jones pursued a solo career and by the mid-1980s was a member of a swing jazz-cabaret band
RIP Iggy you truly were not like everybody else.
RIP Ignatius, a complete trailblazer and innovator. KING of the Australian music scene. What a performer and artist. Heartbroken xoxo
He died?
utterly magical, feel so possessed by that chorus
This video is 100% bona fide zaniness! It almost distracts me from what a great song this is. Jules wrote it, Jones owns it, and Moyet simply covered it. What a treasure!
Take it down a notch, Brenda
RIP IGGY
Have the 12" single. Much better than Alison Moyet version. Not on spotify🤣🤣
he inspired Michael the Goth Kid on South Park.
I recall .... He did a different version....saw it on Rage....at 3am, just after Girls on Film played.
NO WAY!!!!!!!!! I NEED this video desperately! I have needed it for ages!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHH!!
FaNNNNNNtaZZZZtiC
This is what happened when Tony Hadley entered the transporter without noticing Pete Burns.
I wish I'd said that!
😂
Hey You! PAUL 😁
Pugnacious Jones
INXS has much to answer for, this pre-dates them
Find INXS quite boring mostly, overplayed, over rated.
Alison borught me here
Alison Moyet's version is muuuuuch better
The original with Jules Shear is the best :-)
He wrote the song, but Alison OWNED IT. Honestly, nobody would be listening to it noawadays if it wasn't for her. He must be thankful.
@@klaustrovian Actually I've been listening to the Jules Shear version since the mid '80s. I like Moyet's version a lot but still think Shear's is the best. That whole album was incredible.
@@LXfergactually this version by Ignatius is the original. Both Ignatius and Jules recorded their own versions of this song at the same time but even though it is a Sheer song Ignatius beat Jules to the release by 3 months. So technically Jules is covering his own song sung by someone else.
@@cszmax Shear performs the song as he wrote it, unlike Jones who misses out the haunting 'middle 8'.
Is this real?
Not camp at all.
Dun Trolling LOL
Yeah I'm sure he's worried about a woman😂 No hate.
I shouldn't have made fun of you before,I love you now.Forgive me?
This fuck went from jimmy and the boys to this???
There's always some hard core guy who prefers the old version of an act ,this is a great post punk song most here accept that fact.
Well it is a decent song 🎵
You owe Alison fucking everything for giving this song life !!!!
Alison's is much better ...this is not my thing
If you grew up with 80's New Wave this is the sound, Allisons songs with Yazoo were great though.
Not as good as the original Moyet one
This is the original..... but I agree that Moyet's version is much better
+modarXmodar I have since found out the original is actually by jules shear
actually this was released first
Best version
@@modarXmodar Sorry a lot club goers in the 80's would disagree.
