Thank you to our patron Scott for another great pick! This was one of the catchiest damn songs I've ever heard.. And the video was so good! I love these early 80s videos, man. It's so cool to see where the art started (music videos) and such... I think

Funny story: About 12-14 years after this album came out, my friends and I heard that Flock of Seagulls was playing at a local bar, so we went to see them. The band spent nearly the whole night playing new music nobody had heard of. And it didn't even have the same 80's pop synth style. We kept looking at each other and going, "WTF?"

This is why Jules points to the kid on the couch in "Pulp Fiction" and says, "You -- Flock of Seagulls..."

Takes me right back to the 80's. The 70's overall had the best music but the 80's were just so damn fun!

@richardmiller1289

I'm 58 years old and I hated this shit back in the 80s but time heals all wounds and I don't hate it as much anymore, now it's a nostalgia trip.

@kenlawless7247

My bias against 80's synth pop made me hate this song for a long time. Then one day I noticed the drummer, bass player, and guitarist kicked ass in the end.

……got the chance to see this band live in 1983 backing up The Police and The Fixx during the Synchronicity tour ❤

@davidmckenzie420

One of my favorite songs from this era.

@shirleybhs9zd6li5i

Love this song. Ugh....I want my MTV ..back. Thanks for the memories. Blessings.

@arizrich

Can anything be more New Wave than this?

@goblinqueen4991

His hair in the video is not the iconic "flock of seagulls hairstyle" that article was referring to. Look it up to see how wild it was. It came about by accident: the singer was going for a David Bowie inspired 'do and one of his bandmates put his hand on the guy's head and shoved, resulting in the "winged" look that became associated with them. Seriously, words don't do it justice; you have to see it.

@amnril

Great band, early 80’s, great music.

@laurencaulton103

This video was on constantly on MTV. The hair bands. This is a really tight song. In and out, no excess. It leaves you wanting more.

@trespatines8698

I love the guitar work on this song.

@happymethehappyone8300

This is the first song most people think of,, They actually had numerous great tracks/songs..I can name at least 5 or 6 that most forget about until you mention or play them.

@realbser1956

I remember that this was part of the music our aerobics instructor played when I could still do aerobics. lol. I want Mike Score’s hair please. Really like this song. Another good one Scott.😊

@williamlovett619

Enjoy this song

@WilliamWarlick

Man you the hardest worker around! I'm 67 years old, and I grew up with the greatest music ever produced. I loved this type 80s garbage. It was fun.

@josephadams7379

"The Fixx" Red Skys at Night, the extended version, is a good one.

@lauraallen55

Close! Modern music videos kinda came about with MTV with The Buggles' Video Killed the Radio Star. I Ran was '82.

@scottyhotty1003

This song went to number one and I remember hearing it everywhere that summer they also have a couple other Good Hits photograph of you and Space Age love song❤
