Interview with Kurt & James
“Walking Away” reached #5 on the billboard dance chart, #9 on the hot 100 billboard chart, #15 on the modern rock chart
This band was so intellectually and musically ahead of its time. Fabulous talent that still works today. I wish music in the present was this great.
Thats a long way to say its Boss
Love your comment, female drummer
Saw them yesterday here in Recife - Brazil. Can't believe this guy is sixty years old. Still pure energy from these guys. They still rock!
Eles tocaram aqui em SP e infelizmente perdi, pelo que vi é a turnê de despedida. Parabéns por ter ido ao show
They are real professionals, the only tech band that played live, and even better than the original song. In Chile we danced their songs in the 80's and 90's.
Yeah, I saw them live in a club. They were mostly using the drum-pad samplers (including Kurt), triggering all the samples and building the loops as they were going.
BTW: You might be interested in Thomas Dolby's "Sole Inhabitant" shows (lots of videos here on YT). More electronic music created live.
Agree, this is cutting edge to do live
The lead singers hair was brilliant ✨✨✨
@DBRisingfrrrr
Information Society, Depeche Mode, Tears For Fears, Spandau Ballet, Howard Jones, Wham! Genesis, The Fixx, Duran Duran. All crucial pieces to what made me become an avid music lover as a child. Nothing else comes close to the sound these new-wave groups had back in the day. Such captivating energy, passion, deliverance and presentation in these wonderful songs. They are so well-constructed and unique. So unlike anything else you will ever hear today! such an incredible sound that leaves you wanting more! Their music was amazing to hear back then, and still is now. Timeless music never dies!
Herbie Hancock first macanial video
Totally agree the best just fun music
No New Order?
@@thumper300zx Absolutely! Add New Order in as well. I still play and enjoy all of their albums. Low Life is my favorite record by them. Excellent stuff!
how bout that band who played RUSSIAN RADIO.
MTV don't do this anymore.
It sounds even better than the official video.
RIP Sally - Berg
Go to soon
Best Drumbeats 👌
Ah yes, the good ol' days when Kurt Larson was Kurt Valaquen! I have such a huge crush on that dude. These guys are so freaking cool, been a fan since childhood!
I agree that Kurt was very handsome! Love the hair too. I wonder what they are all up to these days :)
@@michellehutchinson3027 InSoc is still going strong actually, they released an album last year.

@@lune78 hey thanks 😊
Kurt still makes me totally nerd out for him when I watch this! Yummy
They were ahead of their time!
WAIT...WHAT??? LIVE??? THEY'RE REALLY SINGING AND NOT "MILLI VANILLI'ING?"
BEEN A HUGE FAN OF *I/S* SINCE DAY ONE ❤
I'm from Miami and I saw them Live at a Teen club when the local Radio station broke their song "Running" first nationwide. It was funny because they were using Ironing boards as their Keyboard stands! And Yes they played their instruments Live.....INSOC 4 EVER!
Kurt was very handsome! Guys from the 80’s and 90’s were so cute! ❤️
I agree, his style has always been unique 😍
Kurt sendo ele mesmo, sem se importar com oque os outros pensam, amoooooooo ❤
Muitooooo ❤
I still listen to information society.. great music 🎼🎶
Great version, with different sounds and samples, and a gaff or two. At least it was live!
AMO AMO AMO A VOZ DELE E AS BATIDAS, PRA MIM ELES SÃO OS MELHORES DA EPOCA DELES, JUNTAMENTE COM O HOD STWART!!!!! 🌏🌎🌍👁️👁️👁️👀👀👀👀🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤭🤭👍😂😂😂😂🤭🔊🔊🔊🔊💙♥️🤩🤜🤛
@@ivaniziaguimaraes6813 lindo
Yeah those gaffes made me feel embarrassed for them, but they handled it great.
Very professional that's for sure the whole band great
PURE ENERGY..
I Don't like Music.. 😆 🤣 😂
Let's Go see 👀
It's impossible for someone Don't like these kind band..
Your guys rocking.. 👦
RIP Sally - Berg
On the Drumbeat
I loved their music. Cool use of samples. Interesting and quirky songs, for example their song "A Knife, a fork and bottle and a cork". I never thought sampling was a flash in the pan. I thought and still think it's an interesting technique in electronic music that would still be interesting now. There's so many options for how to use it in a piece of music.
Wow, a live performance.
I actually saw them perform live in Tampa back in the day.
Simplesmente a melhor banda dos anos 80 90 adoroooooo
Curto tadas as músicas deles até hoje😎😎
Love from Brasil!!!
I always love this song when I was 18 years old brings back to the day of summer when I met my rest of my family that I never met. ❤
I mean can you get any more badass creative than this? What music groups are this talented where they play their own instruments perfectly in sync with one another and sing live like this?
My favorite Information Society song............. greetings of Peru...
Love my 80s♥️👍
Kurt was super handsome.
PURAAAA
ENERGIAAAA....🤞🤞🤞
A voz do Kurt é tão agradável de se ouvir e ele tão lindo de se ver ❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Tirou as palavras da minha boca!
Sim!! Acho o mesmo!! ❤❤
Maravilhoso!!!! Simplesmente maravilhoso
the most fantastic thing is that Kurt never wanted to be a singer….how about that folks
Adoroooo! Esse jeitão dele é só dele até hoje
Márcia aroucas@eeste é o charme dele ser sério
Pero que buena presentación
Son geniales estos INFOSOC
Essa batera era demais Rip Sally berg
Estilo próprio
Goste quem quer
Eu amo
RIP Sally Berg 🙏
Qualquer musica dos anos 80, 90 detona arregaça essas porcarias de musicas-lixo atuais
Da hora banda fantástica 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Kurt...😍😍😍😍💘💋
Memory lane! I love this band
som contagiante musicas marcantes assim é information society
Kurt ❤❤
Cecilia Hendrick He's mine ;)
Perfecto !!!💕
Cecilia❤❤
Me too ❤ ❤
Ele nunca sorri, no show no rock in Rio em momento algum o Kurt sorriu. Porém o que era pra ser algo antipático se torna até engraçado. E até hj ele é assim.
Verdade ele e muito sério e o geito dele que e assim
Nossa nem tinha parado pra pensar!
Esse kurt nessa época que ele era mais jovem deve ter pegado muitas mulheres viu o bicho era de presença viu
I love how they just got up and did their s**t while that lame ass host was still thanking his guests. Rule that S**t Information Society!!
These people understood the "Cool Factor".
OH SALLY...SALLY...MINHA MUSA..MINHA PAIXÃO..PORQUE VC FOI EMBORA TÃO CEDO..
DESCANSA EM PAZ..NUNCA TE ESQUECEREI 😢❤
kurt was so cute
Kurt Harland era lindo ...
Muito fofo e engraçadinho.
To apaixonada 😍
Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
A música esta cheia de Eco, tirando o vocalista que parece ter sido sempre um Sebo, a Banda foi das maiores ,marcou O Tempo, Viva minha Geração!
Kurt was my crush in the early 90s
It's mine now 😭
Great, timeless song! Information Society rulez!
I love Kurt
They must have been Awesome in Concert!!
great performance.
Amei esse registro! 🥰😍
Why The Quality Is So Bad? Maybe Most Videos Of Information Society Classic From Mtv Never See, You should uploaded Man.😎
caralho man!!!
que banda incrível,amo....................
Kurt Valaquem,Wonderfull! ❤🎶
😍
The best of 80s
It's so weird that they were being mean to the host. I mean, in the context of the age this was recorded, it was a pretty big deal to be on MTV, but they treated the host like dirt and Kurt was posturing like he was angry and bored. Why would you try to act like Johnny Rotten when you are doing soft synth covers of Abba?
they are time travellers planted in the past by the CIA to capitalize on conspiracy minded youth in early 21st century harharhar they already knew all the stuff that was gunna happen from 2012-2020's they're bored like "do we really have to do this" hence the Star Trek sound clips
He was clearly messing around, he has a stage manner.
He was seconds away from a musical performance that could make or break his career. I think its safe to say they were nervous and compensating.
@@velveetaslingshot That's just the way Kurt's personality has always been. It's just his nature to be sarcastic, and it rubs some the wrong way. At least he's honest though rather than be someone he's not.
@@arcadetransylvania2066 People are too dumb to understand it.
Wow, this was like when I used to see them live, back in clubs.
Representing Saint Paul, MN!
que dá hora muito bom 👍👍👍👍👍
Adorei o sample do " pescocinho". 🤩😍❤
Hey Guy! you have more old videos like that? Please! Please! Please! Thx
Sally Berg is indeed a show by herself
Sally Berg👏👏👏
Amo!!! Tive o privilégio de assistir ao vivo em 1990 e, fico indignada com essa geração supostamente "internauta" com acesso a muita informação e nenhum conhecimento, tecendo comentários ridículos, "tradução" pois, é só digitar o nome da música e, acrescentar "traduzida" que tudo se resolve...
desculpa aí, geração "Nutella" mas, na nossa maravilhosa época, nós pegávamos as letras das músicas das nossas bandas favoritas, em folders nas escolas de inglês, tipo Fisk e CCAA...kkkkkkkkkk
Não existia internet enm yyoutube não!! kkkkkkkkkkk
Que saudade enorme ❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Gênios
Eu sou muito fã dessa banda !!
What happened to the microphone at 4:02 ? Other than that great show! I love Kurt and James' outfits in this! :)
If it were happened with milli vanilli? Ouch...
He’s fucking with you. 🙃
Eu adoro você i Love information society
This really was not necessarily electronic it was also considered freestyle music
Engraçado ver que o Kurt sempre caga para o entrevistador desde sempre. É um traço dele que não mudou. Ele deixa claro que se sente visivelmente incomodado com o simples fato de ter que falar. Aí começa a falar coisas curtas, sem sentido, apenas para gastar o tempo. É muito engraçado.
E TEM MAIS! DURANTE A FORMAÇÃO DA BANDA, ELE NÃO QUERIA SER VOCALISTA E FOI CONVENCIDO "FORÇADO" PELOS CARAS, GOSTAVA MUITO DE FICAR SÓ NOS QUARTOS DE HOTEL MUNDO AFORA, DISCUTIA PRA DEDÉU COM PAUL (JAMES NÃO SE METIA), DETESTAVA TURNÊS E DIZIA QUE NÃO QUERIA SER FAMOSO. QUE IDIOSSINCRASIA, HEIN ??!!!
Nem nos shows ele sorri
@@ragnar2803 e serio? poxaa ele nao quis ser mas ele canta tão bem, e a banda fez sussesso, ele deveria estar orgulhoso né, enfim, ele deve ser uma pessoa muito difícil.
Acredito q o problema dele seja com a imprensa pq com o público ele estava mto bem no ultimo show em Sp no Terra SP, estava mto tranquilo a vontade.
If they're from Minneapolis, why do they sound like a British band while signing?? Were they trying to emulate the British 80s sound? It's just strange.
moore ae2002 the British hit everyone with Punk, New Wave & Synthpop for a decade, so tons of bands over here emulated British styles,, the sounds, the clothes, the hair, the visuals 🎯📻📡🎼🎧🍺🍸
Kurt's accent is 100% Minn-e-SOOOOTA.
I THOUGHT THE SAME
Still listening information society in 2018 awesome band
They are from Minneapolis so what did you expect them to sound like? ....PRINCE?...just kidding but British New Wave had a profound influence in America during the 80's...so can you fault us for liking good music?
Peace!
So awesome!
That is a hairdo!
Speed racer quoting lets go see!
That Mike drop was cool!!
His recovery was well done and professional, even though he messed up the lyrics. I loved it as it really proved he was singing live and sounded amazing.
i heard those guys for firts time 28 years ago was working as a bartender and i said those are two step ahead of the future! the concept was too clear.
LOL
😂
They close by announcing tomorrow's musical guest is Tom Jones
🤣
Can Kurt be any more lovely?
Я сейчас занимаюсь музыкой!!! Если бы я услышал эту песню в раннем детстве- это поменяло бы мою жизнь!!!!
too much echo, live singing isn't good. Studio is much more dynamic
Poderiam reutilizar esta versão.
Fabulous fabulous fabulous
2:50 Kurt V invents the streamer mic setup (1988)
quem ai em 18.11 21 ? detalhe pra parte q ele deixa cair o mic da um sorriso sem graça e se perde por alguns segundos , mas tem credito pra porra !!!!!!! a melhor de todos os tempos !
Amazing band
Killer song
Kurt has a bit of Johnny Rotten vibe about him. Kurt seems nicer and is a better singer, but the aloof yet intense outsider thing. Oh, and the glare
Funny I made that comparison myself the other day, he does seem like a more docile version of John Lydon lol
I think he’s more like a young Kurt Harland 😂
@@Sinjinator He would probably prefer that lol
I can still hear the Soul Reaver.
💓💘😅😂😍
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Que pesado el que entrevista
Qual o nome dessa baterista. Asiatica ?
Sally Ven-Yu Berg
i want his haircut.
I’m a hair stylist and I want to do his haircut on someone so badly
why is everything how we grew up being copied now does your generation literally have n o ideas
@@hjibakkkihjibakkki6408 "BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO REAL INTEREST IN BEING THEMSELVES"
The lead singer is actually the father of actor Seth Green
Who is Seth Green ? 😮
Kurt was a god. *bowing down* he was a big kid.. so cute :)
