This is great. Would love to hear you play the whole song.
CZcams would shut him down for copyright violation.
@@erikburman530 I watch other channels (like RJ8) that play full songs and aren't shut down.
Put a box with a talking head in the corner and it makes the video a commentary, not a copy
@@erikburman530 Jews
@@erikburman530 youtube should get rid of people like you - its a leagle rendition...
Saw them live once. And I could not believe how loud they were in concert. The kind of live show you can feel in your body. It's the second loudest show I think I ever saw.
Men without ears
What was the first?
@@TheBrianCloud Kenny G probably?
Was it so loud it knocked your hat off?
Nah, loud is being at a Motorhead concert and you can't hear right for two days, that's what I call loud.
Simply fantastic but why so short? I think that a lot of people appreciate this fantastic version...please complete it!
I’m happy with the demo. and yeah: copyright stuff yada yada. They’d take it down if the song was any longer probably. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It's so short because they didn't make the music, go buy the music!
@@TFT-bp8zk Yes and he should because he would be stealing from another artist. You kids just don't understand do you!
@@minirock000 yeah nobody ever did covers back then. the kids these days don't remember! oh wait.
@@minirock000 You realy shouldnt call other People "Kids" while you articulate yourself like a 12 Year old. Thats not a smart move
Nothing can beat the sounds of anologue synths 👌
A dx7 can

PAUL MARTIN: Actually...Korg's PolySix V2 softsynth, beats it's own original hardware version of the PolySix keyboard.
The software enables versatile sound creation with enhancements such as 32-voice polyphony (max), up to 16-voice unison (with detune/ spread function), flexible external modulation settings, MIDI clock synchronization for the modulation generator and arpeggiator, and a spread function that adjusts the spaciousness of the effects. The multi-effects that have been added to this softsynth, are among the very best I've ever heard.
I've been a keyboardist for 43 years & a life-ling Korg fan and I can vouch for Korg's accuracy & attention to every conceivable detail, in their recreation of the original PolySix keyboard(as it has all of the analog warmth & sonic characteristics.)
No, my laptop with stock synths can :)
At 0:48 always loved that instrumental part of the original song video. So glad someone recognized it because its not in the other versions of the song
It's in every version...
That's the baroque melody part ,love!!!
What are the notes for that bit?
I know what you mean, I like the video version too
I sort of love how this video starts with the Push and then immediately throws it back to its great grandfathers
Maaaan the oberheim gets the sound of that main synth. Such a great sound.
Loved "men without hats" from the 80's and safety dance, had a 12" long mix of the song. I could get up, washed and dressed for work as a 16 year old before the song had finished. Now 39 years later 😭😭😭 looking back with fond memories 😝👍
Me to brother 👍 I’m 56 ! 😞😁
@@andy.m265 I don't see any reason, at all (I hope), why you and Mike can't dance and have a good time while listening to this song still!
I say GO FOR IT! You've got every right to do so!
I think you mean twelve minutes long not inches.
Also, Mike Heap? As in Spaced Mike Heap? As in Upstart Crow Mike Heap? As in Friday Night Dinner Mike Heap? :)
@@minirock000 Probably referring to the record size. 12" singles were generally just the extended versions of songs.
@@andy.m265 *too*
There seriously needs to be more safety dancing in this world.
💯❤️
how a meme song from the 80s becomes a lesson in brilliance.
This combination of famous, vintage american and japanese synths sounds fantastic👍
Wow, I didn't realize how layered it was! Have an upvote!
Wow man you are going to get a DMCA violation for perfectly recreating the OG. Great job
I've been on a decades long quest to find a recreation of The Safety Dance so I can sing the vocals and I've finally found it. Now what am I going to do with all my time.
Oh my, this is really really good this one . . . Its not just you've got fantastic gear to play live with :) Its your knowledge of patch programming and sounds selection that defo sets you apart from other cover artists :) "Your defo one of CZcamss finests buddy"
Thanks David. I appreciate your support 🙏
You'd be surprised over how many hit songs used the default settings/patches e t c. They didn't fiddle around as much as you'd think.
@@azynkron most of these synths do not have defaults, though ..
@@azynkron only when your talking about the Yamaha DX7 / Roland D50, no one could get their head around that stuff! These old analogs had no presets which was the beauty of them.
Ah, the glory of the Hats. Makes me feel all Montreal-y :).
As somebody who has always wondered what the heck one is supposed to do with like 10 keyboards worth of synths this was both educational and magical. 🤩
That drum beat sounds so killer
I cant believe how complex and layered that song is !!!! Crazy! 🤯🤯🤯
Absolutely.... 💫💫💫
Brings me back to the Bio Dome
Shame it's only one minute long. I was really getting into it.
Brilliant! this song was my whole life for a couple of years. They had a great medieval video too, the band were French Canadian
A couple of years? Were you in an American prison somewhere in Cuba?
And they were also without hats...
at least the men were.
One of my favorites another good one I liked by them was I got the message they were a great group the 80s were fun times
@@stevegarcia3174 When the xirs are not looking, put on some Sam Kinison and Eddie Murphy concerts.
I’ve seen that video. Jolly as it was, sinister memories of The Wicker Man kept creeping in.
Please play this at sets on the beach or slims something, I’ll be there for it, a full version would be amazing
I'll be in Perth for Ministry of Sound Classical playing a set of Recreations on Dec 11. And more Perth shows are on the way :)
LOL - "You can dance if you wannooh!"
What a classic 80's song, thanks for sharing!
DUDE! That's in the POCKET, sir: quite well done. Thanks for caring enough to do good work on this well-followed classic... nailed that shit.
I saw Men Without Hats in 1983. One of the most memorable concerts of my life.
TOO SHORT! Perfect rendition, captures the era so well.
Analog synths are on a league of their own. It's almost as if you can feel the music brushing up against you.
Great job. 👍
Oh please!!!! This needs a longer version. I can't stand making longer versions of my own videos so I understand the reluctance but this one is just such an incredibly groovy cover that I would love to see it with more of those instruments!
One minute is just not enough! :-) CZcams audio handicap aside, that sounds Fing AWESOME!
That Oberheim OB-8 made this remake sound so much better lol. Overall awesome remake!
You have a nice collection of keyboards.. I was working on a collection of boards until the Corona virus hit.. I had 30+ years on the same job and the company laid off half of its work force and never called us back.. I ended up saling 8 keyboards and a kickass PA system... why am I telling ya'll this ?? oh well, it felt good to tell somebody. Lol. again, you have an awesome collection of keyboards..
@Randy Trader - capitalism is not your friend :(
@@zoned7609 not in this case.. but I do start retirement next month and stop using my savings for bills.. then I'm going shopping.. sad thing is I'll never be able to replace what I had.. I had my first synth an Arp Omni .. it paid for a couple of house payments..
@@zoned7609 it's no one's friend. From the workers the capital pays to make the exploitation of labor a little less inhumane to the capital exchangers/"owners" whose whole life revolves making the decision that's likely to make them the most profit: so anything from high turnover rates to keep labor expenditures low to changing focus within or outside of the company's main industry because researching medicine isn't as profitable as developing the auto-injector it comes in.
Why we've decided to shackle ourselves with an economic system that ends up pitting each other against one another during the best of practice when we could use better, more fair, more popular methods of producing stuff for one another where the only person exploiting labor is the one performing their own labor to better humanity I'll never understand.
That sounded identical to the original! Superb 👍👍🎉
That vintage sound...Wow!!!
I never get tired of hearing that old school synth.
It's all 1983 up in here... love it!
back to the 80s club !!!!!
I keep coming back for the combination of that MultiMoog and that Oberheim. Man, they sound fabulous.
The combo of the Jupiter-4 and the oberheim made my hairs stand up.
after hearing this and reading the comments it's unanimous ”MORE MORE " BRAVO 👏
The synthesizer is God's gift to the world
OMG!!!! My disturbing childhood just came back to me. I was in scouts and the only kid with a cassette deck (and batteries) had the 12" mix is as a cassingle and played it non- stop for 3 days and nights.
Boy I love these HOT vintage sounds!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Moog Multimoog 1978-81 for fat bass, Roland VP-330 1979-80 vocoda (and can do strings), Roland Jupiter 4 1978-81, Oberheim OB-8 1983-85, sequential Circuits Prophet 5 (1978-84). What a collection. They are sounding great too. I'll have to watch some more of your videos.
Damn that Sequential Circuits sounds incredible
Fantastisch!👏👍🤗thx luke🎹🎶💃🏻
Oh my!
There is more to this pop tune than I gave credit. I have that 80’s love/hate with the music.
Brought back memories!
I've still got the vinyl single!!
Love the Prophet and the Oberheim sound. Fat, and analog for days.
That was sooooo good. 👌😎
Absolutely fantastic, love the sound, thank you for sharing!
I really wish this was longer
you are the only one who notifies me that Friday has started) thank you!
Jawolll SO genau SO muß das klingen !!
00:39 What is that monster! She sounds like a beast!
Don't think I'll ever get tired of listening to that tune.
For some reason, I'm really struggling with the urge to grab a "boom box" and make a mix tape lol.
Awesome Safety Dance Remake... Jupiter 4 sounds at 0:29 amazing👍
it is said that this sound is made by the Prophet 5 too
Everyone of your videos just give me a big ole smile love the jams
BRAVO! Love that tune!
Outstanding!!!
Have to watch this over and over again. Just amazing!
That was and still is a great song.
Thanks for making this.

That OB is just wonderful. Great work dude
Perfect! 👍🏽
I always can't help but chuckle when I hear the riff at 0:20. Such cheesy goodness. I mean this as a compliment!
Superb!
Awesome
Amazing. I love it.
That sounds great!
