      Funny, but those were my sentiments expressed on a clip of "Private Idaho." They rotated (in the late '70s/early '80s) in their own orbit and for people like me in the U.S., they offered a sensibility that was more common in British bands. And to think that stations in my area (central Illinois) would play their stuff was kind of miraculous. Plus, it wasn't hip to like them in the early days. So, yes, pioneers we can be thankful for.

    I remember when "Bouncing off the satellites" came out. Was never a big B-52's fan, but bought it on a lark and after hearing this song, the very first song on the cassette, I fell in love with the B-52's immediately. Simply one of the coolest songs they've ever done......especially when you crank it full blast on your car stereo, driving through the countryside at night.

Never much a fan of the B-52s but found bouncing off the satellites on tape at a garage sale for cheap and picked it up. It’s become a ritual of mine late at night after work to blast this album in my 97’ Ford Taurus - driving through farm fields no less! Loved the b-52’s ever since.

      @@Bigbird108s, what I like about their voices are that they are almost identical to each other, yet unique to the rest of the music world. I haven't heard anybody that remotely sounds like them, so it's interesting that they ended up in the same band together. At the same time, their voices are very different, while still sounding similar. Kate is more of a soprano and is amazing at singing really high, sometimes operatic or falsetto parts, and she does these awesome bird-sounding noises. Cindy is more of an alto, and she's great at singing really low parts. She also has a breathier voice, but also, man, can she belt it out!

    For those who were not old enough to be out and about in the 80s, Thrift Store shopping was really in fashion throughout the 80s but especially up until about 86. 1960s, 1950s along with 40s and 30s Art Deco Periods were really seen as very stylish when putting together your own personal look. Mix and Match for your own look along with your own artistic Addons!! I knew this kid who liked to wear stuff like 1960s Sports Jackets in funky colors with shiny large silver Safety Pins all over the jacket!! He had a short Bleach Blonde Punk Hairdo and wore Makeup so it looked pretty cool!! Also Flip and Aardvark's Odd Ark on Melrose in Hollywood were the coolest places to shop Thrift and had the best clothes!! All of it was inspired by New Wave Videos like this from the B52s and others.. I would hit the lesser known Thrifts to get some good stuff like 1960s button up Mohair Sweaters until everybody else caught on and they became hard to find.. Good times!!

      gsp631, It IS. Way too cool 😎 for both today’s music music. But, apparently, its a great source of pain for the band and fans, alike. One band member, hid his condition (what I can piece together) he had AIDS, and at the last minute, before dying, told them that and goodbye. Listen, I could be totally wrong here. This is something I read in the comments section, above your comment.

    Such a banger of a tune but really sobering in a way. You can almost see it in their eyes how much they were in pain doing this video without Ricky. There's an artificiality about the dancing in this video that you never see with their other video recordings, you can tell they were bruteforcing through it and it's kinda heartbreaking seeing such a fun care-free band just not feeling it.

    I love the soaring instrumentals and melancholy harmonies, chords, and melody line. Those are the same qualities that I appreciate in the band's "Channel Z". I heard about Kate's rustic guest house/inn. I'll bet it's a treat !
