    At first I thought 'How great a recent performance!' then I realized omg this is already almost 20 years ago, its crazy how time files. I'll never forget the first time I heard ABC and this song in 1982, I was 14 and that bass line grabbed my soul like nothing else, and I could not get enough of this music. It still evokes that feeling! Timeless

    I'm here first and foremost for drummer David Palmer. His drumming on that first ABC tour was absolutely legendary. Lifted the album Lexicon of Love to the heavens in that live show. And, when he's back behind the drums for ABC, it's beyond words good.

  • @srkbear1
    @srkbear1 7 месяцев назад +8

    What I would have given to have attended this concert-I would have died a happy death on the spot, ecstatically revisiting my 13 year old self, the age I was when this album dropped.
    If I only knew then how lucky I was to be alive in this era, I guess I might have appreciated it more, I guess-although I was in bliss at the time as it was. I certainly appreciate it more now, because boy, the time for music of this quality being on top 40 radio is SO over.
    Trying to think of the last time a hit made the charts where anybody knew or cared who the band was playing the music? I remember knowing the names of every band member I loved in the eighties-Thompson Twins, the Smiths, XTC, Duran Duran, Culture Club, ABC, the Cure, INXS, the Clash, the Go-Go’s, the B-52’s, the Fixx, U2, Yazoo, Depeche Mode, Tears for Fears, The Cars, Devo, the Police, New Order, Human League, Heaven 17, New Order, Squeeze, Split Enz, Eurythmics, OMD, Simple Minds, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Echo and the Bunnymen, Talking Heads, REM, the Pretenders, Ultravox, the Pet Shop Boys, Blondie, the Waitresses, Til Tuesday, Missing Persons, Talk Talk, Dexy’s Midnight Runners, Adam and the Ants, Bow Wow Wow, Bananarama, the Bangles, Erasure, Naked Eyes, a Flock of Seagulls, The Psychedelic Furs, Prince and the Revolution, A-Ha, Men at Work, Love and Rockets, the Cult, ALL top 40, ALL bands with skilled musicians, all composers of their own music, and all with their own unique identity and image.
    Creativity was everywhere, especially from the UK, and music was multimedia, tangible, collectible-rituals such as going to music shops or obsessing over album art or watching MTV or going to concerts were part of everyday teenage life, and they were how we socialized together.
    I’m sure every generation says the music of their youth was better than any other, but with the eighties there were objective quality measures. How many genres launched in the late seventies, early eighties? An attempt at an abridged list:
    New Wave, New Romantics, the second British Invasion, the NWOBHM, Punk, post-punk, alternative, synth pop, Hip Hop, Rap, Techno, House, Industrial, Hi-NRG, Ska, 2-Tone, Goth, Prince’s Minneapolis sound, god knows how many sub genres of metal. The eighties ended at a nadir with hair metal and then Grunge emerged in the early nineties.
    How many since then? The fifties, sixties, seventies, eighties and nineties all have instantly recognizable sounds and styles. How would one differentiate the 2000’s, 2010’s and 2030’s? How does 2023 sound different from 2013? Every era has excellent bands that have cult or underground or college followings. But when was the last time an actual band of quality (not counting girl or boy bands) trended recently in a popular sense?
    I’m an obsessive fan and constant listener of music. And I maintain that the period of the late seventies to the mid eighties (1977-1985 or so) was the greatest era of modern music, and the last period where the album, the band, and the music store existed to bring people out of their earbuds, phones and bedrooms to experience music collectively. I regret that that period is gone, and I’m forever grateful that I got to experience music as it was in my youth.
    Thank you for posting this video as an opportunity for me to feel young again and to be reminded of a great period in popular history. There are many other videos from this concert available worth checking out-including the Buggles performing “Video Killed the Radio Star”-which it turns out was far more prescient than it seemed at the time…

      Totalement d’accord avec toi mais dans les années 90 encore il y avait de la créativité pour moi
      Heureusement la musique est gravée dans nos têtes et ne nous quittera jamais
      La musique est un compagnon de tous les instants
      Elle nous permet d’accéder à toutes nos émotions
      Les bonnes émotions

    I just went past a beach today and had a flash back to a mate who threw a party on it. He set up DJ sound . Bonfires lighting, and the day before ABC dropped the album, for the first 40 mins he just played and all these songs sounded great.
    It was a magic evening, fondly remembered.

      arguably a BIG list of there new romantic bands - Span, Duran Duran were massive out of the UK, Adam Ant, too many bands really but this generation were truly blessed, the youth today - and it's just normal -0 they have 0 idea what life was like in the 80's which for me as a very young teen was 'the best' decade in my life.
