This video represents the era when MTV was a music network.
"What do you mean MTV had no reality shows or no commercials?!"
- the young crowd at my job
Exactly
Wow. Takes me right back to 1981. I'd forgotten how great this song was.
One of the most fantastic PowerPop
slbums ever recorded.
This should have been promoted
bigtime,but as it stands it still
encapsulated an era that came and went
way too fast and should not be ignored.
Thank god someone posted the unaltered version.. Great time
..Great Song!!
This is a Fabulous Song!!
This is actually very "altered" from the original album version..
I'm 49 years old, born in 1973, and remember this song when it first came out. My 10 year older Uncle turned me onto them, and I've listened to them ever since, and never stopped. They guys made great upbeat happy music. The kind of music you can listen to driving down the highway, in a Jeep, with the wind hitting your face, while you are having one of the most enjoyable and memorable times of your lifer. Hey! 🥁 🎸 🎶 ❤
There was a time, when MTV first started, these guys had four songs on MTV that played regularly. Think about that!
They were the headliners on MTV's New Year's Eve Ball I think it was 1981? !!!!
The Shoes too!
The Producers and The Shoes. 1981-82. Great time
This band is perhaps Atlanta’s best kept secret! This song is so catchy!
I picked up a box of cassettes from a guy who worked at a radio station (i think) in the 80’s & this song was recorded onto it among other artist’s. Amazing luck to run into them otherwise I’d not know of them.
Agreed!
Then why you keep talking about Danny Dillard walking around like a dismounted knight brandishing the pool skimmer like a lance?
But then Danny Dillard had extracted a small frog from the drain Portal in the pool .....one of those lime green ones,with the cream colored abdomen......."my pool Holmes" he e says...."my pool here slick"
@@andrewbrown2888 lol
This chorus has rattled around in my head forever.
as it should.
This song is simply perfect. Everything fits together so well. Superb singing.
Incredible band!! Still listen to them ALL THE FREAKIN TIME! Most under-rated drummer ever? Dude is so in the pocket, always! Thanks for posting. : )
oh I KNOW, right?!! and I LOVE how he makes that "crazy facial tick!!! every time he hits the snare!!! LOL
If you ever saw them live, you know what great musicians and showmen they really were.
I think INXS was one of the best bands of the 80s. So what have they got that the Producers haven’t got ? Absolutely nothing. The Producers should have been just as big as INXS .
What did INXS have that the Producers didn't? A successful label. Despite their talent, the Producers were horribly mismanaged throughout their career. Their last album, recorded in 2012, wasn't even released.
Not to mention, they had Michael Hutchence. Everybody that knows that there was just something about them that sucked people in. the personality the look the attitude. The producers for good. They had a really good sound of really well previous songs, but you can tell from this video they came out, hitting heavy, like they were mega stars but just didn’t have that hidden magic. It takes to go from good to super.
Inxs had an incredible vocalist .. the producers had great songs and good vocals but lacked that great frontman voice
@@e.m.b2834the Beatles themselves missed that too, and succeeded regardless... Lennon went to say that if he could have convinced Smokey to sing with that golden voice over his poor nasal drone in the Beatles, he and Macca would have been beyond happy to sing chorus to him and their records improved to where they couldn't perfect it. In fact Paul had to take lead often because the songs required higher notes than John couldn't. Not that McCartney's or Harrison's were a superior class either. Forget about Ringo's. They missed a true gifted singer for the top quality of lyrics they concocted. And they knew it. Which is why many have done better on sales for the unmatched songwriting quality of songs Bob Dylan has ever crafted. And still with his poor quality old man voice when he was still young, his star flew high. But Beatles original manager and followers, as Bob Dylan's knew they had gold and made superior efforts to place their acts out there and beyonds. Many with less talents have been sold like French fries however having no burger meat on the happy meals. Production before the Age of DiY online Media and Taylor Swift own management
@@pendragonUI read this a few times and still not sure what you meant.
The 80s were fun, IDGAF what anyone says
My dad loved this song, and also laughed a lot seeing the guy at 1:02 with the Piano, ...life is too short.
This band kicked so much ass.
They certainly did 😂😁😊🤗👋! Everything about them is so wonderful 👍😊! 3:21
This is such a bop!
This song is so good , but to short , so I have to hear it again
One of my fav bands from the 80’s💗
The Producers are a reminder to have fun while playing. Great stuff!
Saw them live at the LSU Student Union building where they put on a free concert sometime in 1983/84 timeframe. They were fatastic!
I saw them open for Toto 1982 at Chrysler Hall in Norfolk, Virginia. The early days of MTV were fun.
The balding guy was getting down! lol. My hometown heroes from the ATL!
Wayne Famous
@@brianezell5790 Thx. Brings back good memories
Idk but whatever the key player has got ...I want some of that !
The keyboardist stage name is WAYNE FAMOUS. He was the most visual element of this band.
I met the guitar player - - think his first name is Kyle. He was using the bathroom before they played at the arcade in Youngstown Ohio. I was going to the bathroom and turn to my right and he was using the space next to me. And I just said hey to him I don't remember if I said anything else. It was at the height of their popularity they also had she Sheila out. They were really cool guys
@@carlmorell567 Guitarist is Van, bassist is Kyle.
@@duffbaker9554 got it it was a long time ago I was kind of shocked that he was in there anyway
Classic! Awww the good ole days❤️❤️
In the early 80’s we had the Producers & REM in the Athens/Atlanta area!!! Totally 100% different, but both were so AMAZING!!!
Any musicians dream: To be in a video like this. Looks like they had a blast to this rockin' tune!
Wow. So many memories. Good ones. 😎😎😎😎😎
My Best Friend Chris Merritt would do the Wayne Famous Dance whenever we'd score weed. lol-the good old days
Too funny!
Got yo see them play live at a New Wave music festival in Puerto Rico back in '81-'82 and they were the headliner and they rocked the place.
I love their first two albums. I never understood why they didn’t catch on in the US.
The main reason was that they were badly mismanaged by all their labels. After their first two albums, their original label dropped them for some reason. In 1989, they recorded another album for MCA Records, one of the top labels in the 80s, but for some reason, MCA never released it; it was finally released 12 years later by another label but didn't do well. Their last LP, recorded in 2012, was never released at all. These stupid music execs didn't know a good thing when they had it.
Quality does not guarantee success in the music biz
Great song from the greatest era of songs !
Great song by Great rock group who were very underrated! And great style!
...good ol' early MTV...
One of my favorite videos from the old MTV days!
I was fortunate to see them in a small club in ABQ around 1984. I was completely blown away. TWO great singers. Total pros. I asked Wayne about his Oberheim rig and he talked with me like we were old friends.
Sadly, Wayne lost part of his leg and was not doing well but a gofund me account helped him get treatment and a prosthetic leg. Last I heard he is doing much better now..
I was there! It was at the Hungry Bear just off of I-40. Great show! Amazing energy!
Great story. Thanks for sharing
They played several times at the Iron Horse a really cool bar I worked at back in the 80's down in Thibodaux La. We were always packed when they played.
I miss this era of hard driving power pop bands!
This song is one of my favorites! 🎸🎵😎
I miss the 80s so much
Bryan Holmes is a very talented drummer, and his facial expressions at 02:14 and 02:54 make me think of John Cusack.
Just an incredible group of talent
LIVE @ The PEABODY HOTEL in Florida!!! (woot woot!) in 1984!!!!
best day of my life !!
fact !!! :-)
I want you, Diana...I need you, Diana...a fav song from my youth.
Power Pop
The music scene in Atlanta during the 80's... so proud to say I was there!
The last chorus, the background "na na na's" are actually sung by Van Temple (guitarist) and the main line is always sung by Kyle Henderson, the bass player.
I saw them down in the Dominican Republic, the show was spectacular; they sound so good, exactly the same as in the recording, what an under-rated band
Gran tema ,gracias por subirlo un saludo desde Argentina.
I just thought of this chorus I had to look it up. One of those hits that should have been bigger. It only bubbled under the hot 100.
perfect song
How cool were the 80's !
Cool always love their music eary mtv when it was cool
Still Sayin “Amercas Best Kept Secret”! Phenomenal Band every time I got to see them! Right Jim,Tony,Scott?!
A great sound
Killer song.loved it when I first hit mt.v..all those years ago.what a time.
so 80's 😀
Saw The Producers at the Mad Monk in Wilmington, NC in 1985!
This was great but “She Sheila” was the 💣!
The quintessential 80s band
I saw Kyle Henderson do this song at Universal Studios Florida. I believe it was July 4th either 2002 or 2003 and I think he called his band the Kyle Henderson project or something like that at the time. Great underrated 80’s song.
The Producers” from Atlanta, GA in the summer of 1982, and then again on January of 1983, they traveled and performed in concert in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.
They were so popular that the band was treated like super stars, with their music becoming “a cult” for generations decades and decades later until nowadays.
Real musicians playing real instruments and singers actually singing what a concept
Oh, how I miss this band!
"Wayne Famous" - FOREVER !!!!! 🙂
So many parallels to The Elvis Brothers, also on the Portrait label.
Wayne Famous!!!
Still a great band!
As a child in 1982 watching this on MTV I wondered to myself, "Why is that old bald guy rocking out like he's young?"
Now at 50, I'm wondering the same thing.
That keyboardist needs a raise
Never heard of themin SoCal until now, heard today on vevo alt80s on pluto.
Great song!
If this is The Producers' official channel, they really should upload a version with good audio. Someone wore out the tape on this one.
The energy is infectious.
Great band! I bought their album "You Make The Heat" after seeing them on MTV.
I never saw the band live but incredibly ran into Wayne no less than 4 times at shows in Atlanta and the old Fantasyland Records location. A super nice guy. Great band. They could have been huge. Same producer as Cheap Trick (Tom Werman).
Wayne comes from a great musical family. His cousinplayed sax for Tommy Dorsey. I am one of his cousins. I just mailed him a copy of my book Facing The Hbomb a true story about me disarming a live Hbomb in a B52 Bomber crash during the cold war.
I love that song and that band!!
He's got you. Defeat.
Saw them open for U2’s War Tour in Chapel Hill. Loved these guys.
I thought this band was going to be huge. The early days of MTV made a lot of bands famous.
Gotta love the unconstructed suits
What does he have that I do not have?
Jeez it's ridiculous. I'm 55 and watched the and miss it so bad. I listened the day they did the in
OMG!!! HOW COOL IS THIS!? THANKS TO ROBBYN DANNER MASTER FOR POSTING THE PRODUCERS ON FB!!
40-ish years...where does the time go?
If this song doesn't make you want to get a circle pit going I just don't know what you're about
Here children, we see the 1980’s trying their hardest to be the 1960’s…
🤘🤘👏👏
Keyboard guy looks like Our Director..only acts waaaaay cooler
I actually saw them in concert. 81 or 82 I think they opened for the B52's Not sure.
Hey! Theres my Dad!
Ever notice Van Temple looks like Mulder?
I have a policy of never writing negative comments, but what were you thinking. I had an excellent video of this song in my 1980s music playlist, but CZcams just took it down. now i look for another What He's got to replace it, find this, and there's 48 seconds of inane talking. I love this song... People love this song... not talking. when you click on "What He's Got" you expect to hear "What He's got"! Please reconsider, and post the song by itself.
Tiene un gran parecido al I LOVE LUCY, diría los mismos acordes
Tienes razón
It's older chords, in an almost rag-time but uptempo into Power Rock. Paul McCartney had the same background, and one can pick the bits of it in many of his songs and those with Lennon in The Beatles (Obladi-Oblada the most obvious) he acquired such, from listening to his father own band playing Ragtime music already way old after WW2
"I love Lucy" is mostly Reggae but older too, in swing's style altered or updated to like the great Jimmy Buffett used to do with simpler songs
Wayne Famous.. Where are you...?
it would be amazing if you lower the topic table for one
This song was the 2nd video/song ever played on MTV! These guys hail from Atlanta, Ga (my home town) and was the 1st multi platinum super band of the MTV era. Oh my.
.....You Better Run by Pat Benatar actually.....
And neither were they multi-platinum..or even platinum..though they should've been.
@@phishbill Oh no they hit platinum with the 1st album and were the 1st mtv mega stars, but as fate would have all the 1st 10 bands aired on mtv, they all were 1 shot wonders either by song, video, or album although The Producers managed to do well with their 2nd album also but by the 3rd were yesterday's hotshots.
@@kgtmustang Sorry, dOOd, but you're trafficking in alternate facts there. Their self-titled first album only got as far as #163 on the Billboard 200 album chart, not exactly making it platinum..and their subsequent albums wouldn't even chart that high. And amongst the first ten bands on MTV were The Who, The Pretenders, REO Speedwagon-not exactly one-hit wonders. The Producers were terribly overlooked in their time, though. They deserved better.
@@phishbill facts, right here^
The drummers fills reminds me a bit of Keith Moon. Not surprising really.
I didn’t know Larry miller was in the producers
Larry Miller on keyboards just kidding I know it’s Wayne
Always dug Wayne Famous
Hey ITunes, please offer the Producers library !?!?
Ty Tabor brought me here
