I remember that from my high school days riding on the bus going to sports trips they played that song over and over along with air supply they played that to death
Yup,KK1! That movie made this song blow UP!,it wasn’t that widespread or getting much notoriety when it first came out til KK1,then it blew up and became what it is today,a classic! :)
They had a great run here in the uk. I remember them being popular right up until 88. They definitely had a good run. I think they formed in the late 70s but had their first hits in 83ish, if I'm not mistaken.
😂 You best me to it Aaron. One of the few movies I saw in a theatre as a kid. My best friend and I walked to a mall in Philadelphia and, we of course came out and immediately started doing the best version of the Crane kick 😂 "If done right, no can defend." Even the music that was barely on my radar in the 80s , much of it was really good stuff! ✌️🎸🎶
They also did a cover of “Venus”. Fun group. They used to be called Bananarama and Fun Boy 3. Then they dropped the Fun Boy Three and that seems to be when their popularity took off. They’re a fun group. ❤️💜💚
Oh, how I *adore* Bananarama. When I'm feeling just kind of glum or moody, I listen to stuff like Radiohead or The Smiths, wallowy music. But if I'm really in a pit of despair or feeling anxiety something awful, I've discovered nothing that works quite like their particular brand of *aggressively* funky and cheery '80s pop. "Love in the First Degree" in particular has forced me through some very tough moments - I'd love you to check that out, as well as "Venus", "I Want You Back", "Only Your Love" (feat. Fun Boy 3), and/or countless others.
Dude, the 80s were an amazing time for female groups - Bananarama, the Go-Gos, the Bangles, the Pointer Sisters. This song, in particular, reminds me of the original Karate Kid movie.
They had some chart success in the USA in the 80s. This song was like 82 or 83. They covered the song "Venus" in 86 which you might have heard since that was USA top-10. A little later had another hit with "I Heard a Rumour". They had a lot more charting hits in the UK. The name is Banana-rama, first part is like the fruit.
I love it when you and my other favorite reactors dig into the music of my childhood! This song isn't overly deep, but it's an instant positive vibe and it deserves to be known by today's generation.
These Girls, were art students, in the know with members of The Sex Pistols, And The Specials, and even lay there head down at the old Pistols infamous apartment. Their 1st effort with 3 member of The Specials side project The Fun Boy Three. Madonna even took a cue from Bananarama's fashion style.
Entered the record books in the UK for having 30 singles that charted in just over 25 years starting in the early 80's! I believe they had a number of hits in the US as well.
Two of the girls were from Bristol. Bananarama is an English pop duo from London formed in 1980 by friends Sara Dallin, Siobhan Fahey and Keren Woodward.[1] Their success on both pop and dance charts saw them listed in the Guinness World Records for achieving the world's highest number of chart entries by an all-female group.[2] Between 1982 and 2009, they had 30 singles reach the Top 50 of the UK Singles Chart.
It was amazing to be a teenager in the 1980s. Every week there so new hit song (on the radio!!) that still being played and enjoyed today. It was just one after another, with all sorts of different sounds and styles.
Jamel… Oh man this song “takes me back” to my very, very early days of dating during high school ✊️😄. It was raging high in the charts at the time & another of their incredible hits was a song called “Venus” ☝️😎. I hope you spoilt Mamma Lolo for Mother’s Day big guy 💐💐💐. HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY to all the mothers out there …. From Australia 🇦🇺✌️😎🇦🇺
80s was the best decade for fun music and this one does not disappoint! this song came out in 1983....love this song so much! I remember listening to it when I was at the swim club as a young kid...fun times!
I’ve been OBSESSED with Bananarama 🍌🍌🍌since 1994; I was nine. I’m STILL obsessed with them. I went to one of their livestreams and could barely type I was shaking so badly 🤣 I found them via an 80’s compilation CD (React to Venus! ❤️🔥) and begged my parents for all of their albums. Many were hard to access at that time given that I live in the US. I could go on and on… thank you for the reaction! :)
Cruel Summer came out in 1984. It was a big hit that Summer, and the video was always played on MTV. The song was also featured in the movie Karate Kid, which premiered during the same summer.
1983 song. Banana rama.. British/Irish ladies.. They re-released it in summer 1989. I was 16/17 then and it reminds me of going to the beach and the young ladies there. B52s loveshack was late 89, early 1990 I recall. Fun at the clubs.
I always loved this song. So much fun. Banana-Rama. And so they toss bananas onto the windshield! And nice eye candy going on too. There’s something else here that is hot about this cruel summer, if you’re catching my drift😉…
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Yay! BANANArama! They became popular in the early 80s! Fun group of Pop, Dance, New Wave type music. There were some other songs we heard on the radio from them like there cover of "Na Na Hey Hey (Kiss him goodbye), "Robert De Niro is waiting", Venus, "Shy Boy", "I heard a Rumor" and much more! I turn up their music too! Enjoyed your reaction! ☮💕👍
This is the song Bananarama was known for. It was their break out hit. They produced a cover of "Venus" that came out later in the decade, which they were also known for, but I think when people think of the group, this is the song that comes to mind.
Pronounced BANANA-RAM-UH. :) They were performing in the same time period as the Go Gos and Bangles. Check out their cover of "Venus" sometime, good song.
Really saying something was one of their rip off Motown covers . The original was better by the Velvelettes recorded back in the 1960’s ,still to be found on many Motown compilations .
Written by Bananarama, Stockman and Aikman. Filmed in New York. This was in the movie The Karate Kid (1984). 1 member left to found Shakespeare's Sisters. The other 2 members are still together. Great song. Fun video 📹 👍
Ahhh the 80s, my time to shine. Music was everywhere, and it was catchy, and fun. Them, Duran Duran, Blondie, Depeche Mode, man we enjoyed ourselves. Thanks for this, you should check out their cover of Venus. It's fire.
Bananarama were introduced to us by 3 members of the 2 Tone Ska group The Specials. The three members who broke off to create a group called Fun boy Three featured them on their single "It Ain't What You Do (It's The Way That You Do It)". Bananarama were The Spice Girls of their time.
The 80s had their own British Invasion of sorts with British Pop and New Wave. You can usually spot it when the songs are heavy on the synthesized music. Bananarama, Eurythmics, Pet Shop Boys, Boy George and Culture Club, Duran Duran, The Human League, Modern English, A Flock of Seagulls, Kajagoogoo, and that's just the tip of the iceberg! Check 'em all out! Sadly, a lot of them were one or two hit wonders, but what hits they were!
This song gives me chills to this day and allows me to reminisce of a great love I had that was lost through manipulation by another person. Great reaction to the song Jamal.
According to Wikipedia, "Cruel Summer" debuted in 1983, but after the song was included in the 1984 film, "The Karate Kid", the song/music video became a Billboard "Top 10" hit in the US for Bananarama.
Banarama member Keren Woodward married Andrew Ridgeley, the lesser known Wham! member...Love this song. Banarama also sung backing vocals on "Do They Know It's Christmas?"
London Recordings (also known as London Records) is an interesting UK record label with an interesting history. They were the record label for The Rolling Stones during the 1960s, and for ZZ Top during the 1970s, and for Bananarama in the 1980s.
I'm glad you are able to play this without trouble, it's absolutely ridiculous that these music companies don't want free promotions from channel creators.
Unfortunately I think it comes down to censorship and control. I've noticed other channels that don't even do music but have other content and they have the same issue. And for example you are not allowed by any stretch of the imagination to dispute the outcome of a Democrat election. But if trump got elected talk smack it's fine don't worry about it we got this. But when a Democrat wins bite your tongue or you will be banned and alienated from whatever platform. So unfortunately it's not just the music industry that suffers this brand of censorship. Said that freedom of speech and all of our rights are under attack. So if you want ratings and paid channels shut up and comply with whatever the mainstream media dictates to us if not suffer the consequences. Sad days indeed.
Ace of Base did a cover of this song. That was in the mid or late 1990s. This band came out in the mid-1980s. Used to watch it on MTV all the time in 1986, I was like 10 then. Loved this song.
Whoa, did that bring back a memory, and seems like a million years since I last heard it. The police cars in the vid reminded me of the Hill Street Blues theme song.
Banana-Rama,love theese ladies! They even still look gorgeous today,so theyr DNA must be solid too! Theese ladies brought out the kid in me back then,constantly singing "Im your pen**" (When you come around to Venus,another hit by them,you`ll understand) Bananarama & The Bangles were my 2 favourite female bands back then,they still are.
My summer between Junior and Senior year, was a big hit and all over MTV back when they played music. The $1.48.9 a gallon for gas was near the end of high gas prices that started in 1974 and dropped like a stone in 1985 when it stayed under a dollar a gallon for the rest of the 80s. I remember because I bought a car the spring before I graduated and was happy to not have to fork over so much for it.
Love this track. It's almost like an acapella parallel of cool different beats and melodies. The Wikipedia on this track is pretty eye-opening: "After an exhausting morning shooting in the city in brutal August heat, the band returned to the tavern for lunch. They made the acquaintance of some local dockworkers, who, upon learning of their situation, shared vials of cocaine with them. "That was our lunch," said Fahey, who had never tried the drug before. "When you watch that video, we look really tired and miserable in the scenes we shot before lunch, and then the after-lunch shots are all euphoric and manic."[8]"

This song was played during the otiginal Karate Kid movie. Always totally remember that from the movie. Thanks for the memories.
Yeah, I immediately visualize the movie when I hear this
I remember that from my high school days riding on the bus going to sports trips they played that song over and over along with air supply they played that to death
And horribly this hit never made it onto the Karate Kid soundtrack.
Same here. Every time I hear this song, I immediately think of the original Karate Kid and the first scene at the high school.
Always a Karate Kid song to me as that's where I heard it first!! Still a bop
No they were early 80s. In fact this song was in the original Karate Kid.
Yup,KK1! That movie made this song blow UP!,it wasn’t that widespread or getting much notoriety when it first came out til KK1,then it blew up and became what it is today,a classic! :)

Me and my best friend used to ride in her car top down screaming their songs
We're both sistas!!! We even had a little synchronized seat dance! Lol!
😂 You best me to it Aaron. One of the few movies I saw in a theatre as a kid. My best friend and I walked to a mall in Philadelphia and, we of course came out and immediately started doing the best version of the Crane kick 😂 "If done right, no can defend."
Even the music that was barely on my radar in the 80s , much of it was really good stuff! ✌️🎸🎶
This song always puts me in a good mood. Classic 80's. My 8 year old daughter loves this song
My daughter loves it too!
Every generation says it but I love the 80s and miss the experience of living in those times... Painful sad nostalgia.
I want to go back to the 80s every day.
They also did a cover of “Venus”. Fun group. They used to be called Bananarama and Fun Boy 3. Then they dropped the Fun Boy Three and that seems to be when their popularity took off. They’re a fun group.
❤️💜💚
Two different groups, Fun Boy 3 helped 'discover' Bananarama and they did a few tracks together, but were never one band :)
I always loved Fun Boy 3's cover of the Go Go's "Our Lips are Sealed."
@@vickiroman189 Me too! Great minds right??!! Ha!
❤️💜💚
Actually that is incorrect. Bananarama and Fun Boy 3 recorded together, two different groups, kind of how today you have Cardi B featuring 500 people.

Very nice. Love this band!! Venus is another banger also I heard a rumor is a cool vibe track by them…

The BEST times for sure!

So did i
More music reactions please! I love this. Another great song of theirs is ‘Robert De Niro’s waiting’.
Stood the test of time and still sounds as fresh as ever.Classic '80s stuff with a killer keyboard riff.
There is a certain vibe to the song that perfectly represents what life in the early 80s was like
I agree -sort of everyone’s soundtrack.
This song is going to be in your head for ages! 😂. Keep going with Jamiroquai reactions if they won’t get blocked 👍
These Girls, were art students, in the know with members of The Sex Pistols, And The Specials, and even lay there head down at the old Pistols infamous apartment.
