Nice. Very early Kraftwerky. That's a compliment, by the way. Any chance you're using our old Moog MG1 on this track......?

Excellent 😊

A question for our American friends, do you prefer this version of Human League ?

Such a handsome man with a haunting voice, this is such a beautiful song ❤️

A music legend that is not played often enough….. 80s miles better than the shite played today…

Superb. When music was original and groundbreaking.

Early Human League is the coolest music from this era as well as the image. Oakey’s haircut was a total one off and quite outrageous even now, makes his band mates look like Bank Clerks or something 👏😂

Thank you

Why are Blake and Avon in this?

Better than Bowie.

Fab memories of my youth. ❤

If Dr Who was a band!

Thx so much 4 this

A great talent sadly missed and gone to soon RIP Billy

There are only a few such songs on earth.

likeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Hope you found your peace billy beautiful man ❤

Wasnt he just so handsome??? Anyone??? Yeah the music is brill, but look at the gorgeous face....

No sign of that knob head simon cowell then when music was real...

Is that a young Gordon Strachan playing keyboards at the back ? 😂😂

Absolute classic

why why does he keep looking top left. Stop it

wow what a talent

kind of known this tune for years but never paid much attention its been on absolute radio a few times after all these years im like wow!!!! im actually interested to know which act invented this kind of screaming tone of vocal style that was popular in the 80s?

love to learn how this song was written , its like from another entity of music makers

The most influential "unknown" band. I saw them in the late 80s at the Bottom Line in New York and was AMAZED. I expected them to become super popular. Whoops, wrong again. Still, I hear so many new bands and think to myself, "Nice try, but Durutti Column did that better". BTW, how great is that drummer?!

Love this - so sad xx Billy had a great, distinct and amazing voice

Wow what an incredible creative communicator , sharp like flint , flows like colours into each other , can not believe I've never heard of this band and songstress before discovering her through the equally wonderfully expressive Martin Jackson . Where have I been ....on another Planet ? ;D

Turns to shark??? Genius!!! RIP Billy.

I remember seeing this on TV - I was in the audience at the actual show - as well as Durutti Column Hugo Largo played. This was an ICA fundraiser but it took place at the Cambridge Theatre close to Covent Garden

Reproduction is one of the greatest albums of all time, almost as good as The Man Machine by Kraftwerk.

This disappeared for a while. So glad it's back up.

Strangest episode of Doctor Who ever.

So the lady pianist is only a Martha from Martha and the Muffins. 80's fest party at my place everyone. Oh and I had.Saturday job in Freeman Hardy and Willis, my shoe shop manageress would sing this on a continuous loop. 80 s to the MAX mofo.

One of those that your parents didn't 'get' in the 80s..... but we knew different :-)

What a voice! What a phenomenal voice! Every era produces videos that looks funny out of time but listen to that voice and the song writing - absolutely phenomenal... And I think it helps if you know the story behind the song which was one of Billy's family telling him about a party where two teenage girls turned up who were so out of it and out of control that the whole party was scared of them. If you put that tension in the song or them catherine-wheeling out of control, you see it even better - that was the Party that feared two. I absolutely bloody love this song.

A sign of what was to come in the 80s

Vini Reilly is simply amazing - makes my mind soar and my heart race - love you DC!

grand as owt, Bruce Mitchel , one o the best Manchester jazz drummers, currently running a lighting company too. Goes without saying Vini is a genius . smashing combination them two. Peace

apperantly he and Morrissey were lovers. anyone know if that's even true?

St Vincent

How so very sad. I didn't even know he'd died. He was beautiful, we swooned over him in the 80s

How so very sad. I didn't even know he'd died. He was beautiful and was his music in the 80s

Alan Rankine: "top of the pops tomorrow, Billy. important gig. what shall we wear to be taken seriously as major league chart contenders?". Billy MacKenzie: "i was thinking you could rock a samurai dentist and i'll go with 1940s french resistance flasher"... the incomparable wit and unquestionable genius that was (and will forever be) The Associates x

So Dystopian..Hard to believe this clip is nearly 40 years ago..Classic

Dutch? Isn't it Rotterdammerung? Götterdämmerung sounds so German...

So awesome!! Early Human League was the best!!

Beyond beautiful...

This is shocking , many good musicians & singers in the 80's this just doesn't do it for me.

The beauty in this genius is all in his mind, I can't imagine the colours he experiences. And all everyone thinks about is how monetarily rich they want to be. The Human race appals me
