  • Today I'm reacting to Romeo Void hit song Never Say Never. Such an underrated band with a powerhouse song. One of the first songs to kick off my new wave obsession.

    Not a radio song but super popular hit of the 80s and 90s. #GenX

      Radio is where I heard this song for the first time.

      Actually friends of mine back in the day from LA complained that KROQ played it too much. But they were happy for us.

    I am 54, and find this one the best one ever from the 80ties...for sure!

    I danced to this song at a club in San Francisco called STUD BAR when this was a huge club hit. Romeo Void was from San Francisco and the lead singer Deborah Iyall was amazing. I also loved her solo albums and her hit "Girl In Trouble: It's a Temporary Thing"

    Such an under rated song. It's got a great base line, that sexy sax and that hook. Delicious.

    I was a "Voidoid" This tune was so much fun on the dance floor back in the day. ❤

    One hell of a song. I still think the band name “Romeo Void” is one of the most creative names I’ve ever heard. Man, I miss the 80’s like nobody’s business. 😎🤙🏾✌🏾🍺🍺🍺

    This one and Girl in Trouble were just outstanding songs. The really cool thing is, both of them are standing the test of time. " I might like you better if we slept together " was a dance floor chant for club goers for years ! Great reaction Cat !

    Criminally underrated track. I too love her voice. So unique. It almost sounds like energetically monotone.

    • @frankthecoach
      @frankthecoach Před 3 lety +1

      They should have made it super big but I don't think they were properly managed. They were superstars at the time here in San Francisco.

    Absolutely takes me back to a magical time in my life! I think in many ways ever since I have been trying to re create that magic! :) Not saying my life has been downhill since then but man!!!! The 80's were like magic! I have a feeing you know what I am talking about!

  • @Sidragrosm
    @Sidragrosm Před 2 lety +2

    There were three (3) things in the 80's that utterly ruled - 1) was that there were no rules. It was, quite literally ANYTHING GOES! 2) was that the music..? followed that line of thought - you couldn't get a song so awesome as this, these days and 3)..? Actually, to Hell w/three - the first two were MORE than enough!!
    Many, MANY thanks my dear for posting this - So good to know I'm not the only one that loved those times...

    I was so enthralled when this came out I wrote Deborah a letter (in the mail back than) and I have all of the albums till today and they will never ever go on ebay.

  • @tconnolly9820
    @tconnolly9820 Před 4 lety +3

    Wow, really fabulous sound and the vocalist is amazing.
    I just wonder if she looked like Debbie Harry or Pat Benetar would their careers have been very different?
    I'm going to have to follow up on more of Romeo Void.

  • @deboraiyall3406

      I played this song so much, even my mom knew the words! I do wish they received more credit for their talent. Come back. I'm prepping a Souxsie and the Banshees reaction

    80s had a lot of great music to dance your @ss off.
    No need to diet or go to the gym to exercise, just put on some 80s new wave and dance yourself to better health.😁

    Look for Debora iyall now, on you tube she still plays in clubs every now & than but she still rocks! Of course shes gotten alot older.....but still so amazing look for her you will not be disappointed at all i love the entire band!

  • @BigBadWolf1st
    @BigBadWolf1st Před 4 lety +4

    Every aspect of this song is so perfect for an intense, fast paced movie scene. The opening guitar riff is one of a kind, the drumbeat causes you to unconsciously bop, and that insane bass line... then the guitar continues much more discreetly thru the song but adds such a fantastic filler. And of course her voice. I rocked this song when none of my friends had even heard of it. Here I am again blowing my windows out and cranking it. Thanks for the reminder. :) In NY we had a club called Reds which was all New Wave. I got into NW via The Romantics but heard this in Reds one night as was hooked. Try Space Age Love Song by Flock of Seagulls.

    • @catsarai-genxrewind5271
      @catsarai-genxrewind5271  Před 4 lety +1

      What a perfect way to describe this work of art. It is just one of those songs you back help but move to. Space Age Love song is sick! I can't wait to do the review on that one! Thanks for the comment!

    • @BigBadWolf1st
      @BigBadWolf1st Před 4 lety

      @@catsarai-genxrewind5271 I am certain you MUST already have it on your list but ummm... The Romantics, What I Like About You... this was not limited to New Wave hangouts but was played in Dance Clubs (yea I like Disco and was a DJ!) almost as often. I was a club hopper and it was probably the most played song among them. Of course a hot wedding will always include it too. :) Ok, I'll shuddap now.

    I wish you would have played the full version of "Never Say Never" instead of the single version of it. The original version produced by Ric Ocasek and Ian Taylor is a bit longer and has a much stronger impact than this truncated "7 inch" single version.

  • @nick16279

    Please do a reaction video to Sacrificial Rites by The Voices. they deserve the attention! Closest band to Blondie in terms of sound in my opinion. They are as New Wave as it gets!
