Man, that song is a certified Hip-Hop classic & house party/block party jam. smh. But hey, to each his own.

Cool vid. Sharp, Hitachi and Aiwa boxes + Raleigh Burners and Ford Cortinas

Hip-Hop classic

It takes me back in my head to happier times, I can't feel anything other than respect for a tune that does this.

1:33... C'mon yo! smh.

Great BMX bikes, great boxes....not a bad song, but it's just agonizing to watch people FAKE trying to play instruments! Just too painful to watch.

 

[redbenjoe]

like the beat , the boxes and there were 3 moonwalks --at least !!!

 

[blu_fuz]

You were right mono, not that the song is bad, but the direction and fake instrument playing is pretty awful

Couldn't agree more Mono! Classic song! Strangely I was watching Beat Street today. I think we're on the same wave length!

Classic old school.....love it

Love that tune!!...it brings back many memories! The video is typical of UK videos in the 80's...all a bit amateur...but fab nonetheless. So I agree that the boxes are cool but I love the tune too!

Lovin' that Hitachi TRK-9140 with those gold knobs and spray painted gold grills !!
For a model that very few people like in 2013, they do seem to pop up often in early 80s video clips.

Awesome! Never seen the video, but this song always jams!

I always thought it was a girl singing... the breakdown at 3:05 is killer!!!!

If you are sitting still while listening to this song, you better check for a pulse!!

I wonder if Rick Shithouse has this track on his Soundcloud..?

 

[stereomann]

i always thought it was a girl singing this song too

The more I listen to this song, the more I really don't like it! The only thing going for it is the beat, and I agree the breakdown at 3:05 is fantastic!!!!



The singing is gawd awful guys and the fact that a few of you always thought it was a girl singing proves that they should have kept all singing out of the song :laugh:.

 

[systemaddict]

Great tune love it, as it goes I have it as my ringtone lol nowt wrong with a bit of cheese guys, Aiwa 990 for me

 

[MONOLITHIC]

I never thought there was a girl on lead vocals. However, until I saw the video a year or so ago, I thought it was a White dude singing. THAT surprised me. Haha.

I remember this song from when I was a kid and even back then I thought the lyrics were cheesy. Why are they singing the vowels of the alphabet? Despite the stupid words I loved the beat, which still sounds pretty good to me now.

Pretty surprised to see that modded Aiwa CS-990 in there. The 990 is not a box that looks like it belongs on the street. Looks more like something your rich uncle would have kept in his home office.

In any light, thanks Joe for posting the vid! Those of us who enjoy it, well.. enjoy it...

I always pictured a lady like the one who lip-synced C + C Music Factory's "Everybody Dance Now" singin this track!
(Im not posting the link to C+C, and I regret finding it on youtube... shouldn'tve clicked
