I rediscover Shakatak. I am
52 now. What a good songs they made in the eighties 👌
First time I had listened to this song in 1985, I had fallen in love with it, and I do still love it!
Jill Seward had THE best 80s hair (and a great voice too!).
wow I can't believe I've been listening to Shakatak for over 40 years
J’ai le même problème j’ai 56 ans et toujours dans ma tête. Niglo 57
I'm 45. Been listening since I'm 5 y/o kid in 1982.
Same here, since they started.
I was born July84 while Shakatak releases Awsome tune call down on the street
I did discover Shakatak in 97❤ since then I am obsessed 😍with Shakatak timeless & classy work aka *MUSIC*
Since 2002, my friend invited me to listen this magic music
Just found out about this song yesterday. I love it
The sheer joy of it! Reconnecting to lovely times forty years ago. Thank you.
just brilliant
The Music, the Hair, the Cloth, awsome
lovely song from shakatak
I'm a 90's baby who grew up around 80's tunes and can honestly say nothing can replace the music of the 80's thanks to the likes of Shakatak. Went to watch them in London a few months ago... honestly sensational
Great song this isn't it? I've not heard much of their back catalogue so need to get listening...
Can't believe they are still going... amazing!
Went to see them in concert last night (20/02/22) in St Albans. Absolutely brilliant.
Can't believe they are still going... amazing!
I heard this song for the first time just two years ago, it came up on the radio in my car while I was working late at night. I was driving on empty streets during one of the covid lockdowns. It gave me a very special eary feeling and every time I listen to it now I feel it again, but I can't explain what it is. Anyway, I'm happy that I discovered this song.
Sharp eyed capture of a situation , everybody has experienced. George Anderson again with magic bass sound. How did he manage to play so many great records without failing a single time. To me he is one of a kind.
My LOVE is Deep for SHAKATAK, they are SO GOOD, SO CATCHING, SO AMAZING with all their GREAT TUBES, They are the BEST between the BEST that JAZZ FUNK gave us since the Beginning... I Adore them.
Love the track. Love her.

Love this band I have been covering there great songs since the early 80s those wonderful jazz chords I also had a Yamaha cp70 it cost 4 grand my wife had to do without a washing machine so I could save up I am retired now living in tenerife 67 last birthday the music was fantastic in the 80s the girl singers with that big hair reminded me of the girl singers in the Mecca bands I played in I don’t know what happened why do people just one to get pissed up and sing to sweet caz and listen to bubblegum
And the girls want fat arses and tattoos And with the modern technology they are miming out of tune bless shakatack there influences kept me in work till I retired

De synthesizers, de saxofoons was zo veel mooier in de toenmalige muziek.
