Issue #54- Flashback Week- Touch & Go- "Would You...?"


If there's one thing I love, it's bizarre-ass 90's music videos. The 90s were a time where Grunge and Alternative videos took "weird" to a new level, and today's song/video is no different.

Touch and Go is a UK ensemble, being labeled as "Jazz-Pop." They were much bigger in Europe than here in the US, scoring hits with "Would You...?", "Straight...To Number One" and "Tango in Harlem." I actually can't find any evidence of them hitting the charts in the US, but somehow I stumbled upon their MP3. The vocals, I don't believe, are actually any of the band members themselves, and the lyrics, according to the always-accurate Wikipedia, are from a 1978 Psychological study.

Either way, it makes for an interesting song, and a weird ass video. Enjoy Touch and Go, with "Would You...?"
