This came out exactly the same time as I met my husband Gareth in 1986. We had 34 yrs together. I lost him in 2020 to cancer at 58 yrs old. This song takes me right back there in an instant- wish I could go back there. Love you Gar, always will. Miss you love. He didn't want to leave me this way............❤❤
Beautiful story! Hoping you're holding on! Were you both "GARETH"?
♥️
Damn 58 is pretty young! My condolences. 💕
❣️
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I absolutely loved the Communards. 1980s was a fantastic time for music.
Best time for everything
I am 38 and can mind mum/dad this one dancing away. Now find myself using the internet dancing in my own living room- love it
Can't beat the eighties, absolutely brilliant 🎉
Well - maybe the seventies.
The eighty's were definitely the greatest decade! No doubt about it...
@@johnmathis1754 Personally I would go for the 20s
I know you shouldn't live in the past.... but what an era....simply awesome!!!
God... I wish I was 18 yea's old again....so much fun in the 80's dancing to this tune..... Please give me a time machine!!!!
@@StingkevlarPor suerte esta CZcams.!!!😁
Kids, 1980's were the golden age of music
Únicas no volverán 😢
🖐👍👍👍🙂
Golden era of music
Without a doubt ....awesome time.
‘93 kid here and I agree!
Jimmy and Sarah-Jane seem to like each other so much. Every performance of this song they always seem to be having so much fun performing together.
Sarah and Jimmy really compliment each other so well and who doesn't like a female drummer
June miles Kingston she collaborated with jimmy/communards many times
Jimmy Sommerville has a great vocal range that slams energy into every song he performs. I keep replaying this!
Unfortunately the singing was playback, but however the instruments were not, those were live.
@@Phantasia.Official Sarah is live I am sure. You can hear extra vocals I believe Jimmy is miming but sarah is singing along and also slightly tipsy by the looks of it. I don't think she was to but you can hear the live vocal over the top once she sees the mic is on and she starts belting it. She is holding the mic much closer and clearly its picking her up still even though its turned down low.
@@jeframp3805 Jimmy was/is a great dancer though!
God how I miss my youth !! I remember tearing up the dance floor every time this song came on!! Jimmy was my 80s icon
That drummer is something else,she’s brilliant.
The fabulous June Miles Kingston
She also drums on 'Our Lips are Sealed' by Fun Boy Three! I dig her too!
Yes, its a LinnDrum
Love the Communards' the 80's were the best decade ever for me' got some fab memories of the great times i had back then' the music' the vibe the fun' it was amazing, would go back to the 80's in a heartbeat if i could...
Sarah-Jane Morris is amazing - fun and full of energy.
I like april 2024 🥁
Never can say goodbye is another brilliant song by the Communards....high energy dance song....the 80 s ...DuPont Circle...Washington DC..
It's not that his voice is so great -- it's his whole stage presence. He is as energized by the song as we were on the dance floor. Watching him dance & be so fully absorbed in the song, sweating to the beat just as we did. His blond drummer is sooo beautiful. The band & his voice & this song are a perfect match.
June Miles Kingston. Accomplished drummer. He did a vocal duet with her on his first solo album. "Comment te dire Adieu."

Such a great song of the 80s, wish we could go back to that time.
Is that a guy in a dress?
Nope
@@racheleastwood5588 tallest girl ever then
Not really as Jimmy is actually short poor little lad 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Was ook nummer 1 in NL volgens mij, maar herinner mij dat het sowieso grijs gedraaid werd toen. Fanastisch om op te groeien in de 80's.
Klopt, stond 15 weken op nummer 1.
@@thedude8046 Nee de plaat stond 15 weken in de top 40, waarvan 5 weken op 1.
English or Spanish, please!!!!
Geweldige tijd de 80's
@@wilsonnperez2101
In The Netherlands this song peaked at no.1 for weeks. Regardless, it was all over the place. Memorate that it was great growing up in the 80s.
Comments below are about the exact amount of weeks the song was at no.1
Jimmy Somerville was the voice of the 80's, no doubt. But for me it's Sarah who makes this video. Her captivating smile cheers me up everytime I watch this!
Totally agree!
You're not wrong, she looks like she's having so much fun it's infectious.
Absolutely. Sarah Jane always captivated me in both her physicality and her performance as a fabulous artist. This was a match made in heaven. We were spoilt as the youth of this day musically.
"Voice of the 80s" is a big statement, considering how many great voices there were then. Personally I don't agree but he's definitely up there.
@@richardikin good point ; arguably a better voice than say Andy Bell of Erasure, to compare male voices, (with an emphasis on the "argue"!) but how do you begin to compare either of them with someone like e.g. Alison Moyet?
love this whole performance , but Sarah's beautiful smile and energy is great to see !!
She has an exceptionally infectious happiness in her smile. Such happy energy.
Maybe a little bit drunk ?
Sarah is lovely - and really makes this song.
I thought it was a he
@@HaTer-xs8sh lol so did i
That drummer is on time.
Everything on that stage is magic. The drummer? Wow!
dead right Anthony!
June Miles Kingston is the drummer if interested 😊
Anni 80 i migliori in assoluto in fatto di musica e di gruppi ❤❤❤
Love it!, back being a teenager (over 50 now) going mental on the dance floor with everyone!!!.... Proper dance music!.... 😜 TURN IT UP!!!!....
yeah!
Yep, danced away a lot of time to this song in the Eighties. ;)
54 here I love the seventies and eighties, great music,movies.

63 year old new waver here!
In 2024 and I still love this s😊Ng !!!! For ever !!!
The best times !!!
Must have watched this hundreds of times over the years, such awesome stage presence with the two of them, give me goose bumps every time.
A very underated band, especially the drummer.
Brilliant! Sarah looks totally wasted but seems to be having a good time. Jimmy seems to be in control and that drummer - she's excellent.
An absolute timeless classic
I agree because I am a qualified lesbian
The band is one thing, the drummer is another thing!!!
I wonder if she's the same drummer for the Funboy Three - Our lips are sealed?
June Miles Kingston, yes and Funboy 3
Who still remembers going to friends house to watch countdown on tv ? walkmans and boom boxes.
Simplesmente espetacular essa música!!! Quem da nossa época nunca dançou a esse som! Bons tempos
Nos anos 70, também foi um grande sucesso cantado e composto por Thelma Houston.
Estimado marcio los 80 la mejor epoca
Lovely June Miles-Kingston at the drums !
I bought this album on tape in Singapore..I played it so much outdated flight that my Walkman started to melt...😂.😊I was to scared to tell anyone lol...
80s best decade for music for me. So many amazing songs this one included obvs❤️
Fatta così è più bella che la versione originale. Bravi Communards!😊
June Miles Kingston is a killer at the drums !
Sarah is very nice, very happy, you can tell she enjoys the music.
The keyboardist is now an Anglican priest. And he pops up on TV every so often. And he is really funny and a good representative for Christianity.
This video makes me so happy, I keep coming back to it. They are having so much fun on stage and it's so sweet! Love it!
smiles!
I like the official video version even better. This one seems like playback, which was common in the Eighties.
Mesmerizing chemistry between them 😍
Uma recaída na depressão... venho aqui e sou maiiiiiissss forteee... está canção é lindaaaa❤❤❤
Jimmy an underated singer he has an amazing voice
love this performance The Communards just Rock the stage
I love Jimmy's happy persona and also the young ladies 🏴😁🎸❤️
Oh wow, my dancing days on the dance floor, this was always played! Memories at the night clubs!
Viva 80s brings a lot of memories I love it 💕🙏 greetings from Albania👍
One of the best groups of the 80s , they were the days believe me absolutely fantastic😊
1980's what an amazing time coming of age.
Demasiado bueno 😃👌👏👏👏👏👏🤗🎼🎶🎵
Absolutely fabulous music. Thanks Jimmy & co.
Did you read comments? All the bands who ever have made a difference. Communards of course one of them.
A brilliant cover of a classic, well done The Communards!
Could listen to and watch this video forever ,Jimmy Somerville best dancer ever
Una gran canción para un día nublado y apagado de Noviembre....energía pura
Phénoménal !! Timeless !! No words……so strong ! 👍👍👍
80s lo mejor ,,no hay como esa decada🎉❤😊
This takes me back to my youth and I can listen to it time and time again. Happy music and vocals witrh no hatred or malice. What a shame that the music scene has changed so much in recent years where some artists (albeit a tiny minority) use their music to incite hatred and voilence.
One of The Best Pop Songs ever made!
The original

@@warrenbfeagins thanks sir I didnt know it was a Cover.
@@svajerenYes, it was a cover of Thelma Hopkins or the original from Harold And The Bluenotes, both disco.
Performance única... Sensacional...
De Jundiaí, SP Brasil...
Velhos tempos que não Voltam Mais Quando a Juventude da Época Tinha Muito Mais Juízo Curtindo Músicas de Verdade . Saudades ❤❤❤🇧🇷🇧🇷
Incredible voices match and this is an iconic hit.
Saw this great man in Forest National in Brussel, that year, stoping his concert in the middle of one song, just to tell the public to be careful with children dancing at the second row, and allowing them to come dance between the gates and the scene with the security crew, and feel free to move. A big gentleman. Thank you sir. You re in my ❤ forever, for this memory and for saving so many lives with «Smalltown boy», too
Lol which man lol
@@zdd22fixes47 Jimmy sommerville....gay or not Is a Great man
@@mauriziogueli8709 aaaaaaaand which "Man" is that?, sunshine.. I'm more interested on the how "what becomes what" in that picture...
All I see is the end result to A LOT of torment and persecution, that has driven 2 little abused boys to question their realities.. looks like one's gone "all in" and doubled down.. some say sceeeeeming for attention, some say SCREAMING for help..
What you are looking at was made! #nosymbolism
The English, and English music culture is full of tormented and abused little boys that have been turned into sexualy peverted deviant Homophiles, Transvestite Homophiles and their grubby deviant Gender Minions Brigade.. 🎶They just couldn't leave the children alone🎶 huh
We know what made this cretin, and it's delusional side kick here- let's not fool ourselves or others eh
I feel deeply for the horror they faced as INFANTS and children, but you raise that symbolism you shall perish beside it... I'm more a Sid fan, fam lad! Lets rock and roll..... #itshomophilenotsexual
@@zdd22fixes47 sooo much + than u ll ever be, kiddo
@@quadencaroline3368 u huh! And you sound like you could be a judge of that 🤭🧐🤭
Side note, you're aware of why you use terms like that? Right!
You know what you're portraying-right🤭 lets just say,, it's a very common term used by some homophiles, predominantly the Male Transvestite Homophiles! It's part of their narcissistic nature to be condescending, this is why the deviant gravitates to the infants and children- they think they can get away with it and it feeds and enables the deviant behaviour...
Are you a male or female Transvestite? I'd say male Transvestite, that's when a man lives out the delusions that they're a female. ..
Oh, and if you're going to call me names, my pronouns are Homophilephobic and Transvestitephobic :) Remember, love is love 😘 twinkle toes 🤭😅😂😂😂😅😂🤭

Que contraste de voz entre Jimmy y Sarah....es un matrimonio perfecto
One of the greatest Songs ever !
if you go back in time the 80's music was great !!😎✌
Melhor Época ! As Músicas eram Maravilhosas e Contagiantes ! Não tinha como ficar parado ! Só Alegria ! Show ! 🎶📀❤
Great group and wee Jimmy brilliant a wee lad from Scotland 🏴🏴👍😁🎶🎶🎶🎶
So great, I love this song !
Caramba...Que Vozeirão Tem Essa Cantora Sarah Jane Morris. Nota 10😝😝😝😝
Ao lado voz aguda do Jimmy somerville coordena direito com.
Una Joya de los 70's con toque Ochentero... Amo esta música!!! 😎🎶🎵
Brilliant.
Just found this. This rocks..... Love it. I'm 72 and this makes me want to dance.
This is my music era, I was lucky enough to be 15 in 1980, although you don't tend to realise what you had until you look back later. The 80s were amazing - I'd love to go back. Although it wasn't perfect, of course, things were much freer and simpler then.
do it the wolrd is now a mess only dancing is helping to forget haha.
I am nearly 71 and love to sing along .
Viva la grande musica degli anni '80
The song is great, 86 was my first year of university. I can remember dancing to this song at the Turret - WLU's bar. Sarah is absolutely stunning -so beautiful and talented. If she had of showed up in Waterloo, I might have given up God and Country for that beautiful girl. LOL
Fantastic awesome!!!!!! Glorious 80´s❤
Brilliant stuff
😍😍😍uma das melhores da história musical de todos os tempos
WHAT A GROUP TAKES RIGHT BACK TO MY YOUTH AND SARAH JANE MORRIS WAS AN ARTIST IN HER OWN RIGHT MISS THOSE DAYS
The keyboardist is now a vicar. And he is very good and a great advert for Christianity. He is great to listen to.
Even lip-synched, as these TV shows were, Jimmy Sommerville has the sexiest hips this side of Scotland. And that VOICE!!! Utterly magical, even after all these years.
Gets me on the dance floor every time in 2022 !
Esto es música,pedazo de voz la de Jimmy,ayyy mis 80 como los hecho de menos,esperar a qué te pusieran esta canción para salir a bailar.
Дайте мне машину времени, я хочу в эти времена😢. Всех люблю и обнимаю, надеюсь когда нибудь приеду к вам в гости. Огромный привет жителям США из России, мы вас любим и уважаем, так как несколько поколений выросли на ваших фильмах и музыке.
emmmm, ellos son britanicos no estadounidenses
Поинтересуйся с начало с какой страны Коммунардс
Keep playing this video, just such an amazing performance. Happy in a hart beat, every single time !!!!
Always makes my heart smile!
This song is so iconic
He definitely had a great stage presence, loved to dance and luvved what he was doing. Shove in Sarah Jane looking damned good with no underwear, great moves and great voice......? You had a fait acclompiie Great band and timeless.
I love it. My mom already adored his voice.
Is your mom a woman?
Great ❤
Another fantastic song.... from Jimmy
Love this Song ❤
I was spinning the night clubs on the Jersey shore and picked up this 12 inch record and thru it in the mix and the dancefloor was on fire that entire summer I played this epic song taken to the next level from Thelma Houston
Fantastic all round. Jimmy, June, Richard, Sarah. great stuff.
Que clássico, maravilhoso!!!!!
A good version this , I also loved the two other versions from the 70s that were in the charts at the same time.
Soooo much joy and Energy!!!!
impecable, que combinacion de voces
El alma ochentera me sale del corazón con este temazoooo...
Qué música nunca más volverán estos temas, clásicos de verdad, aquellos viejos tiempos q nunca volverán.
😳🙄😩😧😟😥😢😭
A very catchy tune and I hated the 80's music and now in 2023 am enjoying some.
Tolles Lied , tolle Stimme ❤
So nice of emotion
