I heard this song for the first time yesterday. I thought it was a new indie song. I searched it up on spotify and i couldn't believe it was 42 years old!!!! It is so far ahead for its time! Then on youtube i saw that this video was posted 4 days ago? Crazy!
And I myself was there the day this song came on record.... So a genius song long before you heard it the first time and before CD's existed. So you see, life.... was pretty genius, before you were born genius ;-)
That’s crazy this happened to me today, it was on my discover weekly and I came to RUclips to see the video and discovered that it was over 40 years old. Could have sworn it was a new song
XTC were one of the most under-rated bands of all time, their unique sense of "Englishness" and rural themes, epitomised in their 1983 album "Mummer" is one of the greatest albums of all time to me, superb musicians too, if you haven't heard them before go back and have a listen, you won't be disappointed!!!
I have the double CD of XTC called " FOSSIL FUEL ", some fantastic stuff on it. Sad to read that they stopped touring in the mid 80,s coz Andy Partridge had a nervous breakdown whilst performing live. He won't be the first or last to fold under that pressure. His songs are superb & bursting with life.
Well, there's a reason they never made it big; this is their best song, and as good as it is, that's pretty much it - Senses Working Overtime is a cringe song (as in any song that has counting as part of the lyrics!). While I love this song as a piece of music, I detest the lyrics and the general sentiment. What's wrong with wanting the best for one's kids and preparing them for a steady, stable and prosperous life? Nothing. I wouldn't be surprised if Andy Partridge is/was a Trotsyist.

It absolutely does not sound fresh. It sounds exactly like a popular song from the late 70's early 80's but that doesn't take away from what an amazing track it is
I'm just blown away by how contemporary this song sounds over 40 years after it was recorded, Steve Lilywhite produced the f*&k out of this song, amazing.
@@thankyoudriver4219 Really, someone else told me donkeys years ago that Dr. Nigel Gray ( who did first 3 Police and Banshee albums) had a hand in it too. One day when I have time, I,ll treble check to be sure. Though Nigel Gray is dead now.
My first concert, probably Bayonne 1980 had the Police headlining and XTC part of the opening card. So the Nigel Gray link has legs. Also Skafish and the Beat were there if I'm not dreaming. (The Beat had a hard time in France, their name was tricky to get your mouth round in the local language)@@richardmurphy4520
I love all these great little details - sounds, riffs, vocals, patterns, drums...So many things in only a few minutes in this iconic catchy new wave song.
So great to read all the positive comments about this song and the band. They were just brilliant. And this is a fabulous song, i’ve loved it since the day it was released.
Late June 1979 my classmates organized a post 'O' levels disco party where this song was played, I felt things with such intensity at that age, now I am a stranger in a strange land, the past being another country entirely
XTC...a band that despite some great pop songs is unfortunately (and unjustly) more or less forgotten these days. This song still sounds fresh and modern and with a great video. This song is somehow also longer than I remembered!
There's a minor 9th guitar chord amidst the riff, somewhere around the 7th fret. Bloody hard to play correctly, I know coz I've tried n failed many times. Andy Partridge is a genius.
I 💖 XTC, they were a combination of MOD, New Wave and Rock and like everyone says v.underated by the music industry and media of that time. Maybe because they were difficult to define, it may have been the reason for not being taken so seriously? I remember this single was released in the Autumn/Fall of 79 and I'd just turned 14. The late 70s/early 80s was the best era for rock/new wave. 🎵👍
Now(and always)thats top notch drums and bassline intro in a song that cannot be matched or compared. Rolls on throughout the song. Great music Great song. ♥♥♥♥♥♥
I was born in 1986, this was obviously before I was born but this is a great tune and even way ahead if it's time. This is a tune. People say I was born in the wrong decade as all my favourite music is from 78 to 84! I do think music was at its absolute best between those years x
As a 'nigel' I grew up hating this song , forty years later I can sit back and laugh at feeling like that and appreciate how good this song is , strange how time mellows you 👍
Blimy that's weired I only thought of this song again after all these yrs just now and searched for it.. 😁 Listened to the yrs ago, have it on vinyl still..
The first 'hit song' with gated reverb drums. With a second set of mics positioned high in each corner of the stone built Studio .( usually attributed as an accident to Phil Collins on his solo LP and drums on Peter Gabriel 'melt' LP).Recorded april 79 at the newly built townhouse studio with Steve Lillywhite & Hugh Padgham' released 6th Sept79 as a single. Xtc never really got the kudos they deserved for their output.
Unforgettable this song! Always on my mind. I was wery surprised at first listening when I was a young girl and in Italy there was the British invasion in 80's about music.
This song made for a beautiful summer back then, along with the blue sky and the yellow sun. Oh for those pre- chem trail, halcyon days. Nigel is happy in his world ... Much love to XTC
Heard this song on the local alternative radio last night for the first time in my life. Immediately shazamed. Later checked the band. 1979,wtf? First thing that crossed my mind was that this sounds progressive even for 90s. Awesome tune!
The blonde woman nurse in the loony bin looks like me and its no wonder I didn't end up in one with the life I've had lol. Great song, spiky, ironic and about real life situations that don't involve lurrrvve and ooh baby. My grandfather liked XTC and Talking Heads in the 80s, in his late 60s, and he was like Nigel pushed into a career he never wanted (Naval officer), he wanted to be an artist or surgeon. So I always think of him when I hear them.
Partridge was more prolific by tenfold but Moulding wrote some true XTC classics, ran out of steam after Nonsuch though and completely lost interest after 2001 or so.
Most overused and dumbest comments on youtube: A) who's here in (insert year)? B) we are so back C) let's goooooo (nowhere) D) underrated band E) First
True. But it also put a lot of yesterday's music to shame. There is quality and utter crap in every decade. The sin is committed by those whose eyes are blinkered. See - Aldous Harding.
There's still a lot of good music out there today though don't forget, the Brixton Windmill is going through a bit of a renaissance, loads of great bands today.
When I first heard this song, I literally couldn't believe my ears! It was stuck on repeat because I couldn't understand how they managed to create such a unique infusion of styles and sounds into one record. Ahead of their time musically and in this video thematically. #Genius
Wow the treatment of the drums on this track is like so far ahead- love it when song goes dub towards the end- Terry Chambers what an ace up the sleeve of a truely great English band.
XTC without doubt one of the most influential under the radar bands that has ever existed, they were doing post punk britpop etc before those labels ever come about, a truly incredible band
Poor Nigel. What a song. Still relevant after 40 years. Still listening in 2023.

Yea, if it hadnt been heard before and released now, we would all be claiming a musical break through! lol
