I'm 51 and still love it and its in my Spotify play list, when it was released, my friend and l played it on repeat along with Pump Up the Jam and Stutter Rap by Beasty Boys
I was in grade 8 when this song came out. I loved it. I waited for hours with my finger on the record button to get the cleanest start and finish from the radio. I made the best tapes, made the custom paper insert with art on the front, and track list on the back. So much fun, we had to put in work to hear our favourite songs lol
I did too knowing that after the songs ran their course some were hardly played again, if at all. Finally when I started working I was able to buy records.
I remember hearing this song in 1988 as I entered a tv and stereo hifi shop. I had never heard anything like this before. It felt like stepping into the future. And here we are now.
If you think about music after the mid-80s as a whole scale, back in then, this was really an exceptional song, and the real trendsetter. Without this, the music of the 90s might have sounded very different.
Imaging discovering this track in 1987 as a 10 year old. I discovered this and snapped the tape due to the amount of times I played, rewound, played, rewound….. This was the start of a music passion that’s alive and kicking.
This got to no 1 in the UK when me and my husband were on honeymoon in Corfu, Sept 1987. Lost my love 3 weeks ago, but this was one of our best tunes 🥰

My brother introduced the family to this song. He had the 33, played it on Mom's record player. It was one of those rainy summer days when we'd play her collection of Led Zeppelin, Credence and Croce.
Definately...was the best of its time along with house nation , we call it acieeed, acid man, Technotronics hit list , de-lites groove is in the heart, jack the groove/ in the house (any one of the jacks/in lol).. feel like I've missed one off here...will edit if it comes to me. I do know boops was another good one of mention and to the drummer get wicked and of course the deep heat collections were influencial in the scene In UK.
It was the banger of bangers in its time. I know every click and pop and weird interlude somehow. Suspect I still have the vinyl single tucked away somewhere. I even make weird mouth shapes at the end to match the wowee wow war sounds and I like doing it still. Sue me.
I was in my last year at High School and remember the first time we all heard it. Next day at school everyone was talking about it. "What the hell WAS that ??"
In a Venn Diagram of my love for science fiction, space exploration, and house music this video would sit at the exact geometrical center of their intersection.
Herbert Miller much respect to those on both sides of the Iron Curtain who flew in space with early 60s technology.That took balls of steel. I believe they communicated with Earth using vacuum tube radios..
This song changed my life! 🙌 I moved to LA as a kid & this song had just come out on the radio- only pirate stations were playing it but got lots of air play. It was so different than anything I'd ever heard- immediately hooked. A few years later I was going out to the best afterhours in the city way before they should have let me in 😂

@Pop-Actor This was new sounds when it came out in 87. And it holds up pretty good compared to the crap that's released and get popular these days. You have to go deep underground to find good electronic music.
@Pop-Actor You kinda misread me. I said todays POP music is crap, not all music. Huge difference. A lot of great stuff being made the last 10 years, incl. some of the best "80's" music.
@@jmp01a24 Goa/psy scene saves the face of electronic genre. And of course The Prodigy. But that's not pure electronic anymore. It's more kinda electro-punk-metal. A class of it's own.
The break at 2:42 will go down as the greatest break of all time! I had just graduated high school in 1986 and when this came out a year later I listened to it for two months continuous. MARRS needs women, and I need MARRS.
For those who don’t know, the group behind this classic is a combination of members from Colourbox, an influential 80s EDM group, as well as A.R. Kane, an experimental rock act who pioneered dream pop/shoegaze. Both groups are amazing and I highly suggest checking them out if you haven’t already!!!
As a child in the late 80s, this song made me feel that the future looked really good with this masterpiece... Fast cars and open roads, astronauts, space explorations, new frontiers, awesome dance music and sampling... and above all, that teenie bit of Lebanese folklore music electronically sampled towards the end, with Dunya Yunis singing "Abu Zeluf"... This made my childhood, each time Pump Up the Volume was played at our house parties! Loving it and sighing for my childhood with all this nostalgia... ❤
Im still listening to this song in 2023, and I'm not ashamed to admit it! I love the way it makes me feel, and it always brings back good memories. I'm glad that there are other people out there who still appreciate good music, even if it's from a different generation.

Same here! August 2023, and this song hits as hard as when it first came out - and just like any of the other acts from the 80s, they have their own sound - no one else sounds like them, which just made the song even more memorable. Here's to the 80s - quite possibly the greatest decade of music we're likely to encounter, especially at our age!

There is no limitation on your enjoyment of art. You can love van dykes paintings and also Renoir. I say, you have great taste in music. This song is very important. It heralded house music, trance music, electronica.
I was 9 and starting to get into metal. But it was MARRS, Bomb The Bass, Cold Cut etc that put me on the right track. Acid House blew up in the UK the next year and I've been hooked on bleeps, breaks and bass ever since.
52 and still Jammin. We were the lucky ones. San Fran in my early ,20's. Palladium, Holy Cow, south market.dirty as hell like my home town, 4#nd street. Where did the time go?????????
My God, when the BIG speakers came out in the mid80s, this was thumping. The whole block felt that bassline....2022 here, stopped by for a flashback....put the needle on the record....
I was a teenager in the '80s and they used to play this at the skating rink and it was AMAZING to see everyone get hyped up and fill the rink when this song came! on.
Went through the same kind of thing at Maskells Roller skating area in Newport South Wales. Was amazing days along with the Cookie crew and many other early dance acts.
I remember when this song came out. It was pretty damn rad, still is. When it comes on the radio, it NEVER gets changed. “put the needle on the record” When the DJs played it at the clubs, the dance floors and dancing platforms would fill up. Nothing like the 80s *sigh*
It's a shame this classic wasnt created yet at the time they put then gold LP records on Voyager. Can imagine some alien species "putting the needle on the record" and thinking "damn, we might be able to travel through wormholes, but these earth beings surpass us just by this beat"!
The spaceships Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 since then ( 1987) went out of the solar system. I remember the first photos from planet Uranus at the end of 1985. Photos of Uranus appear in this video.

@James Hodson You are certainly not enjoying it when you think about grammar rules mate, everyone can understand what I mean by that, just get a life...
This is when LL Cool J was cool and MC Hammer was in. Love and miss the 80's, shit back then really wasn't crazy after all. Unlike it is today, the 80's was chill, *"do u know what I am saying"*
ROFL! You’re OLD? Our music was the 60s/70s (and way better btw). And I am not old yet! Don’t plan to get that way for a long time. You’re only old if you think you are, kiddies.
Way back when, when personal computers were a relatively new thing, people did demos that showed off the graphic and sound capability of your computer. The best demo for the Atari used Pump Up the Jam for the music. I watched it a lot. ;)
I remember seeing this clip on MTV, when it still was a music channel, instead of a slop reality dump like it is today. It was also turned in the local disco (that's what we called nightclubs back then) at a very good volume and bass sounds. Loved it! Still do.
A masterpiece ❤️🤟😎🇸🇻 la nueva generación de hoy en día jamás podrá superar estos exitazos por más tecnología que tengamos estas canciones son únicas y siempre lo serán..

Amazing track, I have two different 7" and also the maxi 12".Ahead of their time 🔝
Eyy one of my uncle's also had it, idk where it went tho
@@massimilianodimagno7345 Not even an honorable mention of Electric Avenue? ☹️
I love that one, too.
"Whose average age was 19". Yep, another classic.
I was 14 when this came out. I loved dancing around my bedroom to this song. It was part of my dance mix cassette tape. I still dance around to it. 😁
did the same..
What’s a cassette? Lol I’m from 81

i was -22 in 1987. I'm 15 now and i still love it...
1987, I miss the good old days :)
I remember this song as it was yesterday, still great in 2017...
Shell-Martijn brings back lots of good memories for me too! Brilliant songs from this era🙂🙂
My Self Thank you :)
9 at the time.
I was 23. Brilliant stuff - seduced me to house/electronic music forever!
I was 9 and starting to get into metal. But it was MARRS, Bomb The Bass, Cold Cut etc that put me on the right track. Acid House blew up in the UK the next year and I've been hooked on bleeps, breaks and bass ever since.
Yuri Gagarin . El primer 👏👏👏💪
This tune still slaps till this day and always will 🤌🏼🥰2022
Absolutely! This track remains timeless, exuding a perpetual freshness that transcends any specific era or timeline when it graces your ears.
Classic 80's song. Tell me someone who doesn't remember this song. Very memorable track.
32 years jesus where does time go still sounds good to me 55 now listening with headphones on lol old timer remembering his 20s haha
I refuse to be as old as my body feels and determined to feel as young as my brain still thinks it is!
@ pppP#@

@ Pappa
Released 33 years ago today, 3 August 1987, featuring an estimated 250 samples.

This is important history!

Wow didnt realize that old
When I finally meet my one true love, I will say one very special thing to her:
PUT THE NEEDLE ON THE RECORD.
My God, when the BIG speakers came out in the mid80s, this was thumping. The whole block felt that bassline....2022 here, stopped by for a flashback....put the needle on the record....
Hi. Greetings from New York. How are you doing. Hope you are fine and staying safe out there. Where are you watching from?
P.VS LOL REGARDS DJ SMIDNIGHTCALLER
I still love this, the sound effects are unbelievable
unbelievable.I was thinking too.
I was a teenager in the '80s and they used to play this at the skating rink and it was AMAZING to see everyone get hyped up and fill the rink when this song came! on.

Went through the same kind of thing at Maskells Roller skating area in Newport South Wales. Was amazing days along with the Cookie crew and many other early dance acts.
I was 86 when this first came out, still rocking to it today!
Qualidy
Hands down the best Dance song EVER!!! Still loving this in 2022!
Great tune, grew up loving this. RIP Steven Young.
I remember when this song came out. It was pretty damn rad, still is.
When it comes on the radio, it NEVER gets changed.
“put the needle on the record”
When the DJs played it at the clubs, the dance floors and dancing platforms would fill up.
Nothing like the 80s
*sigh*
Only the 90s were that x25 in terms of electronic scene. Late 80s electronics is just the 90s beginnings.
It's a shame this classic wasnt created yet at the time they put then gold LP records on Voyager. Can imagine some alien species "putting the needle on the record" and thinking "damn, we might be able to travel through wormholes, but these earth beings surpass us just by this beat"!
The spaceships Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 since then ( 1987) went out of the solar system. I remember the first photos from planet Uranus at the end of 1985. Photos of Uranus appear in this video.

This song stole the bass line from Delilah by Newsky Prospekt
This track was the beginning of everything
Sigh. I miss the summer of 1987. I wish I could time travel back for one day
or more
back when they had kiss in the park, before summer Jam.
I would stay there😁
Yeah I'm gonna travel back and hang out with my mates in the park. Until the police come and arrest the dodgy looking 40 something guy on a BMX of course.
Nah, Edward. Not for one day. If you had the power of time travel, then you time travel back to the summer of 1987 for the entire summer and max that shit out!!
Oh, and don't forget to give me next week's winning Mega Millions numbers! Thanks!!
This has got to be one of the most important pieces of music ever.
for sure... xD 😎
I like all kinds of music. This one I like dancing along with.😁👣
😁
Did this break before or after Eric B & Rakim?
Absolutely top 100.
65 years around the sun and I have heard 3 wonderful lengths of this piece of history. 2 of these have different lyrics in the chorus... the longest has both of the 2 different chorus lines. Love all of them and thanks to everyone who makes them available.
In the 80´s i recorded this in a cassette from a Radio!!! great memories, cool drums
This song is more than a song.
It’s a piece of dna for my generation.
This track has changed the course of our lives just like the music industry.
@James Hodson You are certainly not enjoying it when you think about grammar rules mate, everyone can understand what I mean by that, just get a life...
@@The_Common_Potato lool
3:00 to 3:16 is sampled from a song from 1976 called The Jam by Graham Central Station.👍
This is when LL Cool J was cool and MC Hammer was in. Love and miss the 80's, shit back then really wasn't crazy after all. Unlike it is today, the 80's was chill, *"do u know what I am saying"*
Wonderfully crafted song.... and a great hommage to all space missions.
absolute gem. i am still in awe every time i hear it.
Ahh, I'm a young buck in 8th/9th grade when this came out, 52 today and STILL LOVE THIS SONG. Thanks for the memories!!
It still sounds great in 2022.
Master piece of electronic music
this was an awesome song to dance to in the 80s if you were at a club or a party, was all about the bass.
It still is!!!!!!
Wasn't it house music?
This entire song is built around a single recurring ominous base note played on the piano.
After 33 years still a great tune.... And sooo many memories
I wish we could of got stuck in the 80's i hate getting old
I miss my mix tapes and my giant boom box. I remember being up all night with my finger on the record pause button waiting for the perfect song. 😢
I feel ya, old as hell and feeling it but i got this music to keep my heart young and my memories fresh...👍
@@ironballsmcginty1009 Fun times.
Mustang shelby 80s or 90s will do. xxx
ROFL! You’re OLD? Our music was the 60s/70s (and way better btw). And I am not old yet! Don’t plan to get that way for a long time. You’re only old if you think you are, kiddies.
Questa canzone è stata una delle canzoni più belle di quel periodo,rimasta in classifica non so per quante settimane....una forza❤❤😊
Jajaja esta la baile en las discotecas en los 80s y mi mente no paraba de disfrutarla. Y lo mismo pasa ahora.
Put the needle on the record...
2018 and still rocking
House music never die.....
adriano dondi - Because no one can put us down cos we keep it underground.

Check ir Out Rockaway Beach!Bach Boys at Sea Guard...

Feel like dancer
Here!!!
Such a cool video too. Retro cosmonaut chic!
Way back when, when personal computers were a relatively new thing, people did demos that showed off the graphic and sound capability of your computer. The best demo for the Atari used Pump Up the Jam for the music. I watched it a lot. ;)
Of course the home computer graphics that are actually in this video are from a BBC computer...2:26 - they're playing Elite in the background
Xmas Eve 2019...Pump it UP brothers and sisters, this track is 32 years old and still going stronggggg
Как глоток свежего воздуха !!! Помню .слушаю.!!!!Спасибо !!!
Their goes Voyages 1 and 2.Oh, well...
I remember seeing this clip on MTV, when it still was a music channel, instead of a slop reality dump like it is today. It was also turned in the local disco (that's what we called nightclubs back then) at a very good volume and bass sounds. Loved it! Still do.
A masterpiece ❤️🤟😎🇸🇻
la nueva generación de hoy en día jamás podrá superar estos exitazos por más tecnología que tengamos estas canciones son únicas y siempre lo serán..
De seguro te recuerdan los carnavales de la 22 de Abril soya
