    This group/song has a special place in my life. Back in '88, I was on the MTV game show "Remote Control"; the bonus round consisted of identifying the artists in 9 music videos. This was the last video - after shouting out "SWING OUT SISTER!" I won the big prize: a trip for two to Puerto Vallarta. Thanks, Swing Out Sister!

    After their first few albums the trio became a duo and a couple. SOS went in a much more jazzy sound and fell off the pop radar. They still continue to release music and do some light touring here and there. Corrine's voice and joyfulness is so catchy. I just love them! :) Check out another great song by them "Am I The Same Girl?"

    This was one of the weirder genre mash-ups of the mid 80s; artists like Swing Out Sister, Sade and Everything But The Girl essentially fusing new wave modernism with the slick, jazzy cocktail pop of the 50s/ 60s.

    I have great memories of walking to work w/this song playing on Walkman in 1987, btw I’ve a hairstylist for 40yrs & so many young women (if they weren’t into the 80’s big hair) brought in pictures of the lead singer to cut their hair into straight bobs w/bangs that year too! Note her retro makeup, that was also an alternative trend going on-for the girls who weren’t into wearing the 8 shades of eyeshadow, the lead singer & the singer Sade were wearing cateye liner & red lipstick, & many of us tried to copy it, way wayyyy before CZcams & tiktok tutorials!

    Swing Out Sister was only a trio on the 1st album, where this song came from. I think the group was more popular in Japan than elsewhere. They even have an album that was only released in Japan called "Filth And Dreams", and a couple of live albums recorded there too. I tend to hear Swing Out Sister songs played on the local jazz station sometimes, but I own all of their albums except the live ones and the Japan only album. I think it's out of print now.

    I LOVE this song! It’s a pretty special song for me because of where it takes me back to….SPAIN. During the academic year of 1987-88, I spent a year in Seville, Spain studying language and Spanish history. This song played a ton at our favorite dance club/bar appropriately named “Club Rio” because it sat right next to the Rio Guadalquivir, the major river that runs through Sevilla. In fact, Christopher Columbus brought gold to Spain from the New World on this very river. Such history!!

    Swing Out Sister is my favorite group of the eighties, it is a very particular group since it did not obtain a massive success, but it overflows quality, evokes positivity and leaves a very optimistic and emotional vibe in each of its songs, far from the dark tone that the British groups of that time took as the cure. S.O.S combines pop with jazz influences, some big band arrangements and various funk elements with a lot of refinement and splendor. Their first album is simply a masterpiece! I love the channel, I recommend you react to the song "Suave" by Luis Miguel

    This song and video takes me back to 1987. I was fifteen. The world was a much smaller place back then, but we loved it. At the time I don’t think I appreciated this song as much as I should have. As I’ve gotten older, my love for it has grown exponentially.
    It is tempting to want to go back into the past and why not? But then I wouldn’t want to live in a world where Amber and Jay didn’t exist.
    You weren’t there, Amber and Jay, but you totally get the vibe. And, let me tell you, we sincerely love you for it. Thank you so much for being you and giving the people what they want.

    So glad that you posted this Swing Out Sister song, "Breakout" which was their biggest hit in the U.S. Be sure though to check-out more of their songs because they have an awesome body of work and many in the U.S. are not aware of.

    Great reaction, Jay and Amber.
    This band started out as a trio, later a duo, other tracks to check out by them are; 'Surrender', 'Twilight World', 'Am I The Same Girl', 'La La', there are many more tracks by them but these are good ones to start with.

    Check out their other hit called, Am I the Same Girl, which is a cover of a 60s song by Barbara Acklin. But it more famously known as an instrumental, Soulful Strut as her voice was removed.

    So glad you reacted to this great 80's song! I'd like to suggest a classic song from 1974, "Lady Marmalade" by Labelle, led by Patti Labelle. This was a huge hit song heard everywhere, and covered for the Moulin Rouge movie.

    Wow! We finally got to some sophisti-pop music (Sophisticated Pop...a genre I've been trying to get you to listen to for over two years) by one of my favorite British groups! 😃
    I've suggested them many, many times over the past two years, including for Female Friday as the lead and only female singer in the former trio is Corrine Drewery, as you mentioned.
    More by them....
    "Twilight World"
    "Blue Mood"
    "Something Everyday"
    "Am I the Same Girl?"
    "The Waiting Game"
    "Butterfly"
    "Now You're Not Here"
    "Circulate"
    "Who's Been Sleeping?"
    "Notgonnachange"
    "Get In Touch With Yourself"

    @Gloren50 Před 9 měsíci +1

    Another comment that I should have made with my original. The song Am I the Same Girl is actually from 1968 first performed by a group called Young Holt Limited. It was all instrumental and called the Soulful Strut. It reached #3 in the US on the charts and became a 'gold' record. The following year, Barbara Acklin released the song with lyrics with the title Am I the Same Girl. I don't remember exactly but it was in the top 50 somewhere; it just didn't gain the traction that the previous instrumental did, until Swing Out Sister released it in 1989.

    Both brothers were Albino and legally blind but musical geniuses! Jim I Hendrix was once asked “How does it feel to be the best guitar player in the world? His response was “I don’t know, why don’t you ask Johnny Winter”! Blues guitar, great vocals, jazz…..they do it all on this song and more? I’ve been with you guys from the beginning and I know you haven’t heard anything like this so far. It’s AMAZING

Twilight World, LA LA LA Means I love You are also great. I also think "Am I the Same Girl" is another masterpiece, even though it is a remake. But the song I would suggest the most would be "Forever Blue". What a hauntingly beautiful song, and love and loss.

    I absolutely love Swing Out Sister. I was just listening to them this week on some hikes. This song is their biggest hit but also one of their more atypical tracks. They are very much a more jazzy/pop/soul influenced group. Your next foray could be the ballad Forever Blue or their another upbeat tune like Am I The Same Girl.
