  • @xoxxobob61
    @xoxxobob61 Год назад +25

    @Asia and BJ ..Thank you for Reacting to this Song. This was considered "New Wave" when it came out in the early 80s and the subject matter was terrifying for those of us who grew up then because it talks about a Nuclear attack from Russia during the "Cold War". The "Red Skies" is the after glow of a Nuclear Bomb in our Cities at Night and the aftermath. The 80s had a lot of very Socially & Political Songs that were "catchy" yet the Lyrics were scary..

  • @PegsHouston
    @PegsHouston Год назад +25

    We were all worried about Reagan & Gorbachev trying to outdo each other by "pushing the button". Most of the Fixx's song seemed to reflect this tension. The best of theirs (to me) is the first release, "Stand Or Fall". Nice discussion, btw. :-)

    • @brianjob3018
      @brianjob3018 8 месяцев назад

      @PegsHouston. The ‘82 release of this would have been the post-Brezhnev, Andropov/Chernenko-hardliner era, before detente was ushered in by Gorby and take-no-s$&t Reagan.

  • @keithosmond5730
    @keithosmond5730 Год назад +8

    This is new wave. New wave was a label used for new bands with a different sound than traditional rock, and dates from late 70s into mid 80s or so. It's a pretty broad, catch-all label, so you'll find quite a range of sounds lumped under that "genre."

  • @sirrobin4394
    @sirrobin4394 Год назад +4

    The Fixx were innovators. I want to say they were a combo of Prog and Alternative rock, but they weren't TOO prog or TOO alternative rock because they pulled us hard rockers in too. They just had that really cool sound that was fresh and rare - sort of like the Cars.

  • @tk72231968

    The band ABC is another great euro pop group that y’all would really enjoy!! The look of love, poison arrow & who wants to be a millionaire are a few of the top ones. Also, the FIXX do a fantastic version of these boots are made for walk-in!!!

    There was and still kind of is a New Wave revival. That started in the late 90's. New Wave originally started in the very last 70's. The Fixx are part of the original New Wave. New Age is something different. Examples are Enya, Vangelis, Kitaro and Tangerine Dream.

  • @johndrx165

    @TwinMillMC Год назад +8

    Not New Age just dreamy. Great song! E-O is a phrase Sting used a lot in The Police vocals as well. Do The Fixx "Secret Separation" next. "You touched my heart so deeply, you rescued me, now free me" - "I'll bear one precious scar that only you will know again". In my humble opinion, one of the most touching love songs ever written. We took these songs for granted back in the day. It's only years later that we realize how great they really are.

  • @DrTomoculus

    Everything they did was gold. They were one of the best bands of the Eighties, and they're still great. I was a teenager when they came out, and I loved everything they did. Jamie West-Oram is in my Top 10 Favourite Guitarists. Their lyrics are amazing, their vibe is world caring and compassionate, they are excellent musicians. The Fixx were one of the best bands of the Eighties, no questions about it.

    Saw these guys in the late 80s & Early 90s in college and they were sort of in a down swing, doing the college circuit but they were fantastic and I sort of had forgotten all the killer tunes they do...Red Skies, Deeper and Deeper, One Thing Leads to Another, Saved By Zero etc....

    @fletcherchristian2254 Год назад +4

    Hydrogen bombs exploded above the atmosphere in the 1960s, ... after detonation; soon after, the sky turned red.
    Old adage "Red sky at night, sailor’s delight. Red sky in morning, sailor take warning” which was supposed to predict the weather.
    1982 Was the height of the Reagan era and cold war. Nuclear tensions between the USSR (russia) and U.S.A. and allies was also at all time high as Reagan was aggressively confronting the USSR and outspending them in arms race.

    I remember hearing this one and I did not have a quiet moment in my mind until I bought the cassette tape of 'Shuttered Room'. The whole album is just great!
    What type of genre is this?
    Growing up in the late 1960s thru the 80s was a very interesting experience!
    So much innovation in the blending of sounds and musical styles.....just a fantastic time to be alive.

  • @maakboomah434
    @maakboomah434 8 месяцев назад +1

    Great reaction video to a song with some legit staying power (bittersweet today, sadly). Listened to this song and "Stand or Fall" often, back in the day as a US Army tanker in the US & West Germany (back then). That was during the tail end of the first cold war, when getting smoked by nukes was always sitting at the back on one's mind. Thought we were past that; certainly hope we are but still quite eerie how this song hits today.

  • @haydenwittig8877

    I was born in the 70s, but the 80s is still to this day my music. Started with New Wave, got into Punk/Hardcore, then Metal. I freaking love the Fixx. Yeah, Cold War was scary times. As a Canadian, just worrying what dumba** Reagan was gonna do, as a child.... If you haven't already, watch Land of Confusion. The original Genesis version. Amazing video!

  • @Phillphine
    @Phillphine Год назад +1

    Kinda odd thing I think about. The title I think is taken from an old saying, but they've turned it around. Like red sky's at night is the bad thing, but the actual saying is "red sky's at night, sailor's delight. Red sky's at morning, sailors take warning".

  • @robertbagley9199
    @robertbagley9199 Год назад +2

    This sounds like the later remake (personally prefer the original) other songs by them you could give a listen to are, 'One thing leads to another' 'Outside' 'The Fool' 'Stand or Fall' 'Saved by Zero' they have about a dozen albums (not counting live or compilations) and roughly 30 singles in their catalogue.

    Something you have to think about with a lot of 80’s music is the Cold War happening. There always seemed that the threat of a world war happening any minute.

  • @tiernet8272
    @tiernet8272 11 месяцев назад

    Yes, this was part of the new wave.
    The new wave came out after disco/country movements, rock appeared to be pushed into the background. The punk scene came out that appealed to some then came the new wave artists like: JoyDivision, TheSmiths, New Order, TalkingHeads, Tears for Fears, Rem, TalkTalk, SimpleMinds, OingoBoingo, DepecheMode, TheFixx, ThompsonTwins, ModernEnglish, BigCountry, SoftCell, DuranDuran. Devo, JosieCotton, Payolas, PsychedelicFurs, MenAtWork, ViolentFemmes, FlockOfSeagulls are just some. This brought in synthesizers as part of the music.
    The bigger names in the list if you have to go back to their first albums to get the flavor of the time.

    Good song. I liked "One Thing Leads To Another" and "Saved By Zero." Please check those out sometime donation less, haha shoot again. This song finds The Fixx lead singer and lyricist Cy Curnin singing about the aftermath of a nuclear fall out. Makes sense it would be on the T2 soundtrack.
