I am happy that someone requested this band. I like them a lot. "Poison Arrow" is as good.
When Smokey Sings is a classic, too.
All of my Heart

Date Stamp. United Kingdom
Martin Fry is the lead singer of the band …”””
“Poison Arrow” “Tears are not enough “,Be near me”,”Vanity Kills”,”When Smokey sings”,”The night you murdered love “…there are many fabulous ABC songs that I recommend 🖤
Love all those ABC songs!
don't forget 'How To Be A Millionaire' !
I'm a king, king, King Without A Crown.
A real gem. Pop perfection.
One of my absolute 80s favorites.
And ABC have a lot more where that came from.
Great 💎 from the early 80's. Reminds me of Spandau Ballet, Scritti Politti.. Those bands, among others, were wonderful 😍
Dereck, the whole of the Lexicon Of Love is DEATHLESS. Dramatic tunes, smart lyrics, production by Mr Trevor Horn. Such a luxurious experience. You're just not allowed to be bored.
How did I miss this reaction? Awesome! So glad someone requested it. ABC was one my fav synth pop 80’s group. ‘Poison Arrow’ ‘S.O.S’ ‘Be Near Me’ ‘How To Be A Millionaire’(my fav from the group) and ‘When Smokey Sings’ are other great tunes from this band.
YES! I saw them in concert 2 years ago, was amazing! He still has the voice. Do 'Poison Arrow' next!
The whole album "The lexicon of Love" is a musical 80's masterpiece . Orchestra synth and killer vocal ability . Timeless
Pop perfection from their massive album 'The Lexicon of Love' produced by Trevor Horn 'Video killed the video star' what a producer he did a couple of great Dollar hits 'Mirror Mirror' & 'Hand held in black & white'. Martin Fry from ABC heard those tracks and said I must have Trevor Horn produce their album. Also discover Howard Jones 'What is love?" he had some fantastic 80's tracks, I remember them well as a teen! Great review as ever Dereck!
I meant 'Video killed the radio star'!
@Si FW, those Horn-produced Dollar singles are GOLD. I love them so much it hurts. For Dereck, I would actually recommend Videotheque because he is synth-crazy. Dereck, that is.
@@thisworldofwater8017 Oh I agree pure GOLD of course I forgot Videotheque another great track pop perfection!!
You should definitely listen to 'Poison Arrow' and the gorgeous 'All Of My Heart'. Both are from 'The Lexicon of Love' album, which is an 80s classic.
When Smokey Sings is a must from this band. Just so luscious.
What's not to like ? Great pop hooks, smart lyrics and danceable beat, all delivered with a knowing wink and tongue subtly in cheek. Great stuff. I'd recommend their song "All of my heart" for your next ABC reaction.
Thank you for taking time for ABC!
Hi Dereck,ABC was the rage in 80s,with this song.Reminds me of schooltrips.Pure 80s.It's a good song.Thanks on the Patreon people!!!!!!!!!!!!
This song is a mini opera. The video is an homage to Mary Poppins (on poppers) ^^ ABC 's Poison Arrow and How To Be a Millionaire are great too.
Damn! Another killer choice, 2 days in a row. Totally love this video. So early 80s. Miss these kinds of videos.
Early 80’s UK pop production at its finest!👌
And by a brilliant producer, Trevor Horn.
Great English band, fantastic songs ❤
A pure gem. The album The lexicon of love is brilliant from beginning to end. Unforgettable
Yes a 80s pop classic of classics!
Went dancing in Hollywood 7 nights a week back in the 80s when these songs were gold....such great carefree memories. Love to see the youngins enjoying them nowadays.
I always liked this song 🎵
Loved that song...good memories😜
Their album The Lexicon of Love is regarded as one of the best in the 80s … every song a winner … try All of My Heart
All Of My Heart is fantastic!
Still love that song. The voice of the singer is so so good.
The whole album is classic .
Check out The Lexicon of Love II they released a few years ago if you don’t know about it. It’s just as good.
@@sentinelmortgagecorp4291 Not heard it but will give it a listen cheers for recommending.
@@stuartleerichardjohnson8189 Hope you enjoy it
I don’t know how I missed your react to this. I love Martin Fry and ABC. Martin was diagnosed with leukaemia at the bands height, but thankfully made a full recovery and married his oncology nurse. He’s still absolutely gorgeous and still singing and performing ❤️🏴🇬🇧
YAY ! One of my favorite songs from the 80's ! Such a GREAT SONG ! Thanks for reacting !!!
You may also want to consider : Murray Head - One night in bangkok :)
One the early 80's hymn. Can sing the whole song by heart. The lyrics stuck with me all my life.... Alongside True by Spandau Ballet, Don't Go by Yazoo, Tainted Love by Softcell, Don't You Want Me by Human League etc it was like a musical tsunami that started in 1981.... new romantics... after a bit lamo years of 1980 and 1981, by the end of 1981 there was a sort of revolution.... Culture Club, FGTH, Euythmics, Ultravox, Heaven17, and more more more, they all emegerd from 1981 to 1984...... ABC had a few other very cool hits.... When Smokey Sings...
'80s cheese with flying nuns' - Never thought I'd hear those words today LOL
You will love their songs *BE NEAR ME* and *WHEN SMOKEY SINGS* !!! They are even better!
ABC had a lot of great hits, every track off their debut album 'The Lexicon Of Love' was excellent, you really should react to more tracks by them, I recommend 'Valentines Day', 'Tears Are Not Enough', 'When Smokey Sings', 'All Of My Heart', '4 Ever 2 Gather', 'Show Me', 'Date Stamp' 'Many Happy Returns' there are many more but these are some of the best.
Thanks for another great reaction, Dereck.
Yea totally agree-Lexicon of Love is a masterpiece, like other albums were all tracks are good/really good like: Dire Straits-Brothers in Arms, Peter Gabriel-SO, Duran Duran-RIO, U2-Joshua Tree. etc
ABC was high class quality music I' ve seen singer Martin Frey live. He was amazing good and superb in symphony orchestra guidance
Back in the day, Britpop was being overwhelmed by synths. New Romantics & Futurists were all over the UK charts. Along came ABC, playing real instruments, and they took the charts by storm. React to "Poison Arrow" next please.
And produced by Trevor Horn who managed to get the best sound out of the bands he worked with.
All of my Heart - ABCs best song..
Produced by Trevor Horn, one of the magician of the 80's...
You look just like him. 🙂
May I suggest "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" by ABC an 80's dance favorite!
ABC The look of Love and the album Lexicon of Love is excellent, it came from a brilliant producer, Trevor Horn. Is a combination of real instruments with the technology available in 1982. Can't believe this song is 40 years old and still sounds modern and like nobody else, pure talent.
Imagine a British holiday resort, pier or park on sunday afternoon in the 20's with various things going on. Trevor Horn, the producer makes a cameo as well, after the biceps presentation.
Trevor Horn... as in (almost) every 80's hits :)
@@samueldevulder And also Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells II. :)
Excellent choice Dereck! Super underrated brand
Little known fact: ABC vocalist Martin Fry was Hugh Grant's signing coach for the "Music & Lyrics" film :)
I love ABC! This song has great emotion and energy. And they look good.
Dereck, you will love ABC's "When Smokey Sings". Think I'll go watch it now.
this is one of the songs I listen to every time I put music on in my house.
It's on every one of my playlists haha
There is Part 1 to 4 of this great iconic 80s song on the original vinyl maxi single. Check it out! Part 4 , with strings only, sometimes the DJ played when we left the empty dancing hall at 5am sunday morning. They also ran the laser show at the same time. This was so amazing.
"Poison Arrow" is a MUST. "You think you're smart, stupid, stupid" kills me every time.
Men without hats "Safety dance" is a must to watch.
Martin Frye is the epitome of the weird/wonderful/bizarre and talented 80's. They had some the best lyrics.
I love this song but have never seen the film clip. I love it even better now. Great reaction, thanks.
Wow! New here! You’re Amazing 🤩 & This Song was always one of my favorites from the 80s! I used to play it over & over & over! Great dance song 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻‼️
British synth band that exploded with this album. Luv luv luv it
They put out a sequel album called The Lexicon of Love II about 5 years ago and it too is a masterpiece.
Martin Fry is a great singer. Glad u dug this so much😂. I loved it in 82, still do. Saw him performing recently, still sounds great.
"How to be a Millionaire" is an absolute dance floor Killer! Must React!
LOVE this tune! Add "When Smokey Sings" & "The Night You Murdered Love".
You should check out 'When Smokey sings' - it's got everything you want from classic British 80's pop. It's so upbeat and energising, and Martin Fry's voice is sublime. Great sax 🎷 playing too!!
You might like This Used To Be The Future, which is officially a Pet Shop Boys song from 2009, but features Martin Fry from ABC in a duet about how they feel the 80's idea of how the world was heading to vs how it ended up. And it has a sweet groove.
Some great contributions from the city of Sheffield in the 80s - Human League, Heaven 17 and ABC to name three. ABC have lots more great songs to explore.
I saw ABC in concert with The Human League, Culture Club and Heaven 17 some years back. They were great. You really need to listen to their album, The Lexicon of Love, as it's a classic of the 80s.
Even if you don't react to it, you absolutely have to listen to some of the long versions of this 80's anthology piece. Great choice!
Excellent track with good lyrics too.
Reaction worthy:
Haircut 100 - "Love Plus One"
mad Xylophone in that great tune!
It blows my mind that you hadn't heard of ABC, they were so important to me. One of my absolute favorites. I have countless 12" remixes of their songs. The Lexicon of Love was a fabulous album. Trevor Horn produced as well as producing Seal, Propaganda, Art of Noise, Malcolm McLaren, Yes, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, etc. Definitely check out Poison Arrow, Tears Are Not Enough, When Smokey Sings, King Without a Crown, Vanity Kills, Love Conquers All, Be Near Me, The Night They Murdered Love, I could go on and on. Great great band!!!
ALL OF MY HEART is a Gorgeous ABC song that doesn NOT get enough Love - You WILL hit BANANAS I promise :-D
Martin Fry born & grew up in manchester, Great singer!
Brilliant , I enjoyed watching you 👍🏻 I'm a Brit so know this song but your reaction was golden ❤
This song is the same good feeling than Prefab Sprout. I think you like this group. "Albuquerque" is so incredible and the video clip so ..... Special 😉😄🎼👍🐸
poison arrow and....when smokey sings are another couple of bangers........Derek you have yet to check out .... OMD orchestral manouvers in the dark, another good synth band.
Yeah! More of UK bands please :)
I do appreciate the humour in the music-video. It is pretty fun and somehow in sync with the lyrics (the talks about gravity when the girl with the ballon flies away)
Ahhh, I love this one. So many memories! I ALWAYS sing along to this one. At full volume. Can't help it! You should listen to the extended version if you like this one. Great song, great reaction.
Hi Dereck, you should listen « when smokey sings » from the same band….you’ll love it!!!!
All of my heart seems to get overlooked.
One of my favorite bands from the 80's. Check "Poison Arrow "next. Great song from ABC!
Gotta listen to All Of My Heart,beautiful song
Puch and Judy show at the seaside 1900s time in all English seaside towns
Lexicon of Love was one of the albums that high-end hi-fi shops used to demo their equipments, such was the high level of production quality by Trevor Horn. My favourite on the album wasn’t a single - 4 ever 2 gether
80s music is awesome !!!!
All my college years 🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍💐💐💐
This song is the song of the 80's.
Lexicon of Love is one hell of an album!!
Seriously great tune
One of my favorite bands ever... I have many of their albums. They put out a new single this month... Martin should amazing. This video is weird, but the music is world class.
Would agree with most others, if you like this you'll love "when Smokey Sings.
I still have this in my album collection (yes I'm that old). Poison Arrow is another great track from this album.
J'ai adoré ce tube des années 80 très pop anglaise ! Ce titre n'a pas pris une ride !💚🧡💜🤎
My of my favourite 80s bands. Listen to Poison Arrow
Omg, a loved ABC
Loved them.
I thought you would of heard this, as was a hit in the US and still plays!
When I was last in the US-Video came on on mus ic channel and was o the radio in a shopping centre!
+ yes cheese is good, unless it is Stilton! this is Edam!
Written by ABC. 🇬🇧
Debut album. Part of New Wave. Influenced by David Bowie, Roxy Music + Chic.
1 of the best singing efforts of Martin Fry. 😃 Funny parts in the video too! L🤣L
Saxophonist Dave Stapleton left the group. Drummer David Palmer quit + joined Rod Stewart 🇬🇧. Mark White stayed for 2 more albums. Then ABC broke up.
In the 2000s, MTV prompted a reunion. It was on video. David said yes. Then, Martin said yes. The others said no. A few years later, David left again. Since then, the only member left for ABC is Martin.
Suggested next video: When Smokey Sings.
Look of Love was produced by Trevor Horn + Steve Brown.
Trevor was the lead singer of The Buggles. He wrote Video Killed the Radio Star with Geoff Downes + Bruce Woodley !and sang it.
Geoff left The Buggles + joined Yes. 🇬🇧
After the break up of The Buggles, he became a producer. He produced Owner of a Lonely Heart for Yes, the debut album for Seal, 30 years ago 🎂, There You'll Be for Faith Hill 🤠 and many other songs.
🇬🇧
Martin Fry was not supposed to be the lead singer of ABC to start with. He was a reporter who went to interview ABC, who at the time was looking for a lead singer. Fry gave it a try and got the job.
As a band, ABC had tremendous change of member along the way: people just went in and out of the team like a revolving door, and as a going concern, ABC is just Fry himself now.
More 80 cheese ? Lexicon of love THE WHOLE ALBUM ! 💪💪💪
I so enjoyed your joy in this :)
You'll love "How to Be A Millionaire" and "When Smokey Sings" by them, too, I think.
Nice ! I was going to make you that suggestion today ! ^^ Thank you for your lovely reaction !
Also look out Scritti Politti 'Absolute' 'Wood Beez (pray like Aretha Franklin), 'Word Girl' & 'Oh Patti' fabulous unique voice and sound I think you would like
Welcome to 80s!! Catchy lyrics n tunes...
Another good band is Blow Monkeys... Digging your scene...
Impressed that you know what your talking about.
You can find the remastered high quality version on CZcams.
Listen to "All Of My Heart."👍
Do "All of my heart" from 82- 83 another song from ABC before they went mainstream with "Be near me"in 1985(i love that era too) ☺ Glad you liked this Dereck 😀☺
