That's one bouncy audience.

*swings wildly*
 
 

I always wondered what they looked like and how they would ever pull off that song live.
No more wondering!
Our local radio station played that song all the time, back in the day.
I think they are a "one hit wonder".
Thanks for posting.

Ya, it's pretty cool.
 
Sadly, I don't think it was a sustainable venture. Watched another version and singer dood sounded like he was coughing up a hairball. Painful to watch.

Apparently you never watched MTV back in the day, and never heard of YouTube in recent years?

Whut's a TV?

Two-thirds of an MTV.

Must confess - I always hated that song. I mean, really hated it. It hasn't improved with time...

I liked the production and arrangement. The violins and banjo were good too.
I always thought it was a female singer.
I didn't watch MTV back then... I was too busy playing with my Amiga and Dr. T's and hardware synths and samplers.
I even had the SMPTE box so it would sync up to tape.
