87 was a great year. I definitely remember this song. A good feel song.

wonderful song, madly in love with Corrine back then, and still am, they are still making great music.

What I call good quality pop music. Their single Surrender was great too.

Yes they did and I listened to every one of the Artists you named.

The singer was working in fashion design and after a serious horseriding accident decided to Break Out, formed a band and made this song 🎉😊❤

I think of this song as the 80s female version of The Bee Gees Stayin’ Alive. Open the door go out and strut your stuff, ladies.

I love this song. Makes me think of summer in the 80s.

Loved Swing Out Sister back in the day, Corrine Drewery was my crush at the time, nobody could rock the Bob haircut like she did, my favourite track from them is Somewhere In The World, it's a laid back Blue Eyed Soul sound and has a great video 🇬🇧

Written by Swing Out Sister. Corinne Drewery fell off of a horse 🐎 in a riding accident. She wrote the lyrics while she was in rehab. She and the other members like 👍 it. But, their record label hated it! 🙄 But, the band pushed on. They performed in Indonesia 🇮🇩 a few years ago. They still sounded good 👍. CB did not lose much range! 🤯 They were scheduled to play in The Philippines 🇵🇭, but canceled due to Charlie 19.

Haven't heard this song in years😮 thanks Gentlemen

Another good song by them is "Am I the Same Girl" A cover of the song by Barbara Macklin, and there was an instrumental but called "Soulful Strut"

This is on my playlist and I listen to it at least once a week. When I was in college, I interned at a radio station in San Francisco when this album came out. I met the band when they were in town touring and promoting the album. They were very nice and Corinne was very tall! 😃

Corny or not, this was just one of those songs that was "right" for the times

This group is fabulous. They have another amazing hit called "Twilight World", and they have continued to release music in Europe after having a few hit albums here in the U.S. They are a great combo of jazz, pop and R&B.

1986 the year i started loving english songs so much and following the charts. i remember hearing this song when it came out and it was and still fantastic. swing out sister has very good songs like twilight world, you on my mind, fooled by a smile and surrender. the week it entered the top 20 songs in the charts in november2nd 1986 these are some of the song that were in the top 20 the same week: through the barricades (spandau ballet). true colors (cyndi lauper.) you keep me hanging on (kim wilde). showing out (mel and kim). suburbia (pet shop boys). don't give up (peter gabriel and kate bush) living on a prayer (bon jovi). ask (the smiths). you can call me al (paul simon). true blue (madonna). don't get me wrong (the pretenders). midas touch (midnight star). notorious (duran duran). all i ask of you (cliff richard and sarah brightman) from the phantom of the opera. take my breathe away (berlin) from top gum. walk like an egyptian (the bangles). you're in the army now (status quo). can you feel the amount of competition ? many great songs. this is why the 80's were seriously the best.

Easy on the eye, Corrine.

Check out: Am I The Same Girl and La La means I love you. Both covers by swing out sister.

another example of how a video can get in the way of the sounds... some bands were let down by their video directors... this song and their album brought a different vibe to the scene... so many of the British bands were fearless -- thanks for finding them and this tune

I really don't like music videos. I wish reactors would only listen to studio versions of songs, and with no video whatsoever. Use their ears, not their eyes.

A pure hearted song. I fell in love with this one day as a kid seeing the video. Also like Twilight World by them. Good jazzy band

Swing Out Sister is fire! Their version of La La Means I love You, is nice. My son turned me on to them.

❤ Swing Out Sister!

I loooooove Swing Out Sister!!!!

I love the joy that listening to all this great music gives Corey.

It was uplifting as heck, especially at the end. Positive vibes.

I'm glad to see someone finally reacting to this. The whole album is very good. Her voice is fabulous.

This group created amazing music over the decade. Check out more of their songs and you will hear the maturing of their music. Just fantastic! Listen to their songs Precious Words, Where In The World, Waiting Game, You On My Mind, and Twilight World. Many more but this will give you a deeper sample of what they produced.

Damn i feel old AF now...lol. nice 1 IZ 🏴‍☠️☘️

I've loved this song from the very first time I heard it!

This is definitely one of my go-to feel-good songs. It was on their debut album “It’s Better to Travel”, which is sensational - every song is a gem. I definitely recommend it. Standout tracks are “Twilight World”, “Surrender”, and “Fooled By a Smile”.

This is amazing!! when you guys did Level 42, Swingout Sister crossed my mind as the next act you guys should do...I kid you not!

I like the bridge in the song where it goes, "Some people stop at nothing..."

Loved the song & bought the album. Great song for dancing to.

This song is one fine piece of 80's SophistiPop!

Automatic Subscription. This group is awesome...

Such a groove! This was on repeat on my playlist back in the day. Love the horns and the vocals are on point. Some great moves from Corey too - you were feeling it big time! Suggestions: DOWN TO EARTH by CURIOSITY KILLED THE CAT also from 1987 is something worth checking out. Or their other tracks MISFIT and ORDINARY DAY. Best described as another British Jazzy, Soul, Funk pop group!

There is a live version of this song at a Prince’s Trust concert where Mark King of Level 42 is playing the bass…

Love your reactions 😄 if you like the 80s, Mike and the mechanics, the living years is definitely has a message worth a listen, thanks guys ✌️

Regarding Swing Out Sister, given your attention to musical technicalities, listen to their song: Happier than sunshine. It starts off in 4/4 and switches to 6/8. Follow the bass line. It's an amazing song.

Solid 80s tune

I still play my 45 and I still have the Album. I love them😊

Jazzfunk has always been huge in the UK

Great band, great voice. Check out their song, “ not gonna change “, remixed by the one and only Frankie Knuckles 😘❤️😉🇬🇧

Another good hit song from the group is Somewhere in the world.

Good song. I never knew the name of the band. I love the fun feel of the video. She was fun...and sexy without being nearly naked! OLLIE, sometimes less is more 😊

Not my idea of “timeless”, but this came out the year my first son was born and it was fun in its day when it popped up on the radio. Don’t forget that PART of “pop” is variety. You can’t keep playing the same 20 genius songs. This is a snapshot in time and it is instructive even if it doesn’t make your playlist.

I'm seriously getting a flashback watching this video 😊

This is the official coming out song.

Put you to sleep? The instrumentals were smokjn' in this sing.

The marching band at Buckingham Palace in London, played this song instrumental, it was great!! 🎤🎶🎺💜

Please try Chris Rea - On The Beach. You won’t regret!

Loved this song.

Agreed with Ollie about her singing.

Check out "Butterfly" from Swing Out Sister. Really good song IMO

Love this song ❤😊🎉

I played this album out!!❤❤

it is so funny watching Corey get excited about music and Ollie has no reaction, LOL.

Next crazy poppy song is "Walking on Sunshine" by Katrina and the Waves.

I don't remember this and I was in the club a lot during these years. She reminds me of Basia or Gloria Estefan.

Basia is a very good comparison!

Nice song and sexy lead singer.

Theres a color version of the video which I think fits the song a little bit more.

I always ask the question whenever I see people react to this version: "why did you react to the black and white version?". There is one in color. That's the one I first watched back in the 80's. 😎

Thank you so much for reminding me of this gem! This is very dated and I see Babyboy was not impressed. I don't blaqme him, you had to be there!

There's a great live version of it from 1989: kzread.info/dash/bejne/kXdosbqrdZmqlZc.html Also, the original video was in color & looked even better, not like this "official" monochrome version: kzread.info/dash/bejne/k2tpqKVypqXRncY.html

Vocal acrobatics were not a thing back then - that one-up-manship didn't start until the 2000's.

Corey Roy: “I got this joint so wantcha’ all to check out” Fenom: “Probably heard it, but never seent the video” Olliwood: “Man, why y’all wake me up so early for this corny-assed White shit?”

Olli does not look well.

Olli with his bored face is tiresome, he looks like that in a few reactions. What is it with younger people that as soon as they sit still they have to start swigging on a drinK?. Not enough time before or after the reaction, just have to have it there and then?

The gayest song you guys have ever done.

It's just a happy, feelgood song

Swing Out Sister seems like a synth pop group if you only know this song but they are a great live band that excels in the 60s-70s bacharack/Webb/Barry classic pop. Their second album is a straight up masterpiece.
