I've got this sound clip of a song below. I recorded it off the radio around 1987, so it is an "oldie." (I can't believe I actually said that!) I have never been able to find out who does it or even the song's name!
So from time to time, I repost it here, hoping against hope, that someone can identify it and help me solve this mystery. Please listen to the clip:
***UPDATE****
Solved! Found! Wahoooo!
Thanks to GT-1969 for the comment that had the answer!
The song is "Bang!" or "Bang! Bang!" by The Weathermen!!!!
Now the hard part, getting it on CD!
***Original Post Continued***
Probably not many folks would know this tune. I'd wager you'd have to either be an 80's Dance Music Expert, a Club DJ back in the day, or a fan of One-Hit-Wonders to remember this song.
But in case you DO know something about this one, post a comment. If you don't know it, you can still help - spread the word.
I need to solve this, it has been driving me nuts for over 15 years!







English Boy on the Love Ranch - "Man In Your Life"
Not that I knew it on my own. I shoved what intelligible lyrics I could garner into google and came up with 1 hit

It sounds like such an 80's song for a high school pom squad routine!
Yep, it is "Man in your life" by English Boy on the Love Ranch .
You can get a copy of it at http://www.vinaledge.com/.
Man, how can you not know that? You should have your 80's Music license revoked! Ha ha...
In all fairness, as an 80's Dance Music Expert, a former Club, and a fan of One-Hit-Wonders, I couldn't make out this song either...
This doesn't have anything to do with the song, but I thought you might like to know the official X2 screensaver is up at: http://www.x2-movie.com/screensaver/index.html but I don't think it's posted on the official site, yet.
Damn, Pie and Yog Sothoth beat me to it! Of course, I didn't know either, and found the exact same page that Pie did. Ah, well - such are the joys of Google!
For reference, the Google search I used was: "you've got to" hey "turn it up" "burn it up" "hit the wall" "slap the floor"
Not "The Man In Your Life" although that too is a good club song from the same era..it's
The Weathermen "Bang! Bang!"
I have copies of this on vinyl...there are a few different versions of that song. Go to www.GEMM.com or watch eBay to buy it.

I am going crazy! I want to know what this 80's song is but I can't seem to talk to anyone that knows it! It is by some british guys I think and the baseline kind of sounds like rapper's delight, but it is NOT rap. The chorus goe's "Hey, Hey, Hey,.......(after that I can't tell what they are saying) if anyone knows or thinks they know, post it or email me PLEASE!!!
i have had this song stuck in my head an its a one hit wonder from 1994 to 1996 i cant remember the name of the song or who its by but it goes " come on an take a ride upon my slip n' slide you take the hose put it in an let the fun begin water goes almost every where "
Regarding "The Weathermen" song 'Bang Bang', does anyone have it on cd? I had the vinyl 12" years ago and I lost it somehow. I'm looking for these songs on cd:
Bang Bang ! (rocket mix)
Bang Bang ! (ICBM version)
Nothing Like It
thanks

You can download a good quality mp3 from one of the originals band members.
I actually saw The Weathermen in concert at Club Clearview in Dallas back in the day!!! The show was great.
Bang is actually one of my favorite songs from the clubbin days. Glad to know I am not the only one. This song has a very different feel to it, I love it!

anyone know HOW mahy Hassan remixes there were? I only have the razormaid mix.
I heard either an acoustic or live version of Yaz, Only You back in 1997 (not sure when it was recorded) It sounded great without the synthesizer. I am not able to find this version anywhere. Can anyone help?? THANKS!
Does anyone know how to get a MP3 of Hassan?
