Bucks Fizz Land of Make Believe

COOOOOOLL!!

Superwoman gets distracted while flying "Ooooh a bee!!" *splash* "Ooooh a starfish!!"

You have a few years on me but I still feel the same. I heard this song for the first time in about 1997 when I was 8 I think. What a song! :D

at 2:20 lmfao

she is really gorgeous and so is jay ashton

so its kinda hidden isnt it anyway its a memorable song from christmas 1981

Love this happy song!!

nonetheless it is a magical song, and puts tears in my eyes, due to a sense of lost innocense

The Land of make Believe I guess is the term used to describe the 'new Britain' that Thatcher was trying to establish and the 'outlaw' described in the song is the representation of the working class being forced to accept the Tory policies but refusing. Sorry if I am ruining the song for you, but I heard there was a rumour that this song is not as innocent as people think and pondered why. Besides 'Barbie Girl' wasn't so innocent. It was about a bimbo wanting sexual acts done to her. Disturbing

just how were they political i.e whats the significance of this song ? to me it sounds innocent enough

There was a divide amongst the British population during Thatcher's reign as PM. She can be seen as a fine leader who got us through the Falklands and built England into a more developed nation. On the other hand, she was seen as a woman who caused mass unemployment throughout Britain and gained money from crushing smaller businesses to develop the better ones. Bucks Fizz were not only as cheesy as ABBA, they could be as political as Pink Floyd. Very few got that straight away. Even me.

oh to be three again

please elaborate, im interested.

the 80's equivilent of ABBA as they won euro vision song contest brilliant song :)

Its hard to believe this song was about the criticism of Thatcher's Britain!
