We got this in 1982. My dad took me to see the movie Annie and then bought me this single on a 7-inch afterwards. Remember it like yesterday. Love from the States!
Old Britain's nightclubbing days... where Sir Elton would meet Freddie Mercury and hang out with local 'perfect strangers' unknown lads, most probably akin to who the three lads from Imagination were... I'm no homosexual, but Britain back then was really experiencing its first ever taste of 'free love', unluckily at the same time AIDS was rising fast... That nightclubbing atmosphere is what comes to my mind whenever I hear the warm funky sounds of such music...
Not only is this a top notch tune but Imagination were so groundbreaking. Were they gay or straight? For a black band there’d been so little ‘ gender bending ‘. Sylvester and the little know Prince in 82. I was so used to the Durans, Visage, Culture Club etc camping it up. All white apart from Mikey Craig. I think they’re a great band for the music and a great band for being brave. Leee John I’m sure is a difficult man but then aren’t we all. Genius band.
Sweet hart that's just how thay rolled in the 80s I'm a hip hop dude I still wear fila Adidas track suits thither movement but the disco movement was about more outrageous the cooler u was.
An amazing song.
Such an epic song and gold outfit is 🔥
Insanely good bass line..classic 80s funk
Great track from the great 80s.
Life was so good
I was a rock and metal kid back then, but it was Imagination that got me interested in, soul/ R&B, call it what you will. I still love them.
I hope you didn't abandon rock and metal completely, mate...
They are brilliant, Magic song to dance to, most of 80's music is timeless and still enjoyed all by ages
the best time of music.. i love imagination
Brilliant song👍👍
Can we again start our life from 1980 to enjoy every moment of our life in a nostalgic movie play
I love this song, love, love it.
Dude air-played the piano solo and was still killin' it; the 80's just hit differently
Oh yes, the imaginary piano... classic
One of those 80s tracks that was so underrated.
I love the 80s

Your Dad was cool.
It sure took some imagination to take your child to watch ANNIE...and round the night off with a seven inch record by Imagination.

The outfit was one of MR T's hand me downs, apparently the A Team wanted to gay him up, but he was having none of it.

Вокал Ли Джонн (фальцет) пост-диско элементами танцевальной музыки
Title needs to be fixed - it reads 1981.
Other than that, fantastic post!
the wal custom fretless is very distinct.
I never realized .and now I'm confused!
i am don t speaker english
I'd swear Prince Naseem Hamed copied Leee John every single time he entered the ring.
the Gibson brothers of early80s?
now you can get a sexchange, back than you were stuck with what you had
filleken Actually, sexchanges had been around since the 60's.
You are a moron ...they were stage costumes!!!
What the FUCK is he wearing??!! And this is coming from someone who never usually comments on bad fashion.
southlondon86 i'm so glad you asked! That has got to be one of the campest outfits!!!
Sweet hart that's just how thay rolled in the 80s I'm a hip hop dude I still wear fila Adidas track suits thither movement but the disco movement was about more outrageous the cooler u was.
Jon wu nah the whole group from the lead singer to the drummer was just plain flamboyant I wonder how they sound live because they stay entertaining
Jon wu Disco had already died by 1982...even in the UK.
Not "disco" ... straight funk here dude !
bent as a 9 bob note

Why would he? Life was fun back then.
