Anyone else into this album as much as I am? I ask mostly because I don't know anything about it. The only writing I've been able to find is the AMG entry and the Amazon customer reviews (which I stumbled upon accidentaly this morning and was heartened to see that this album does have some semblence of a diverse and devoted cult).

I first picked it up about a year and a half ago. I might've skipped it if not for the great cover (especially striking on the vinyl LP sleeve). I've loved it ever since and really think it's one of the great unsung pop albums.

Who's playing on this thing? Johnny, Jenny and J. Bohomme are fictional, I suppose. Is the band from the previous records still there? And who is Zeus B. Held?

― Jason Hz, Sunday, 26 October 2003 15:59 (twenty-two years ago)

It's Ivan and his brother, I think -- Ian Anderson from Jethro Tull plays the flute on "On Tuesday"! Zeus B. Held was, IIRC, a Euro 80s corp rock producer of some note, though he actually works pretty well here.

I too love this album dearly -- I knew the title track from senior year in high school, when it became a fluke hit on Top 40 (nowhere near as big as "The Safety Dance," but it did at least answer the already formed 'whatever happened to?' question about them. Then freshmen year at UCLA a friend on my dorm floor had it and I ended up listening to it a few times. Never heard or saw anything from it until earlier this year when it turned up in a clearance at a local Wherehouse when it was going out of business, so I was able to get it for a dollar or some equally ridiculous amount. Surprised and pleased how completely and thoroughly I enjoyed this album, it is indeed quite fantastic, and "Walk On Water" is the great Benediction to a Generation/The John Hughes Theme That Never Was.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Sunday, 26 October 2003 16:48 (twenty-two years ago)

This album is fantastic, pretty much for all of the reasons mentioned. It truly is a pop masterpiece and I wish I lived in the alternate universe where "Moonbeam" was a big US hit.

Let me take a moment now to rant at VH-1 for list Men Without Hats on their "100 greatest one-hit wonders of all time" list. They were one of SEVERAL artists who had more than one hit, and were ACKNOWLEDGED to have more than one hit (others included a-ha and Falco). Fucking tools, you don't get to ignore facts just because you wanted to list "Take On Me", "The Safety Dance" and "Rock Me Amadeus".

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Sunday, 26 October 2003 17:33 (twenty-two years ago)

Parts of this album are on the soundtrack to the movie "Date with an Angel." (Wow, I didn't realize until now that Emmanuelle Beart is in that movie. Note to self: rent "Date with an Angel.") New York music critic (and occasional pornographer) JR Taylor has theorized that the record is a concept album about the movie, and it seems at least possible.

I too think it's a fantastic album. They're kind of an underrated group, Safety Dance notwithstanding.

― dlp9001, Sunday, 26 October 2003 17:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Has anyone heard any Men Without Hats records done after Pop Goes the World? I haven't gotten any of it, though I've been meaning to for awhile. The Ivan solo album looks particularly intruiging to me.

There's a handful of great songs on their earlier releases ("I Don't Want to Be a Messiah", "I Got the Message", "Antarctica", "Safety Dance"), but I haven't taken to those records like I have with PGTW.

― Jason, Sunday, 26 October 2003 19:54 (twenty-two years ago)

I haven't heard it in years because I only owned it on cassette and no longer have a tape player (or the tape). Definitely my favorite of all the MWH albums, though. I barely remember the album which came after it (the title had something to do with the 21st Century), always regarding Pop Goes the World as the group's brilliant swan song.

― Johnny Fever (johnny fever), Sunday, 26 October 2003 20:12 (twenty-two years ago)

slightly off topic, but has anyone every sampled "Safety Dance"? There's that synth bit that sticks out in a weird way that I always thought would be great to sample.

― teeny (teeny), Sunday, 26 October 2003 21:31 (twenty-two years ago)

I have their guitar album "Sideways." It's not as good as Rhythm or Pop, but it has its charms. It's sort of like a David Bowie album, in some ways. They do a fairly straight cover of "I Am the Walrus" on it.

― dlp9001, Sunday, 26 October 2003 22:00 (twenty-two years ago)

i like 'em well enough. ivan's voice takes some getting used to ... but it isn't as if he's the only pop singer that i can say that about.

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Sunday, 26 October 2003 22:08 (twenty-two years ago)

eeyore + "pop goes the world" (the song) = magnetic fields

― donut bitch (donut), Monday, 27 October 2003 01:13 (twenty-two years ago)

Clearly my difference in appreciation between Men Without Hats and the MFs is a hatred of donkeys with tails nailed to their asses.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 27 October 2003 01:52 (twenty-two years ago)

You left off "Living In China", "I Like", and "The Great Ones Remember"... MY GOD I LOVE _RHYTHM OF YOUTH_.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Monday, 27 October 2003 14:03 (twenty-two years ago)

What annoyed me a lot more was that so many of the artists in that countdown led real tragic lives, but since there wasn't much time to talk about them at lenght they kept glossing these things over in a creepy upbeat way, like "HEY! Remember that song 'I Know What Boys Like' by The Waitresses? Wow, wasn't that great. Of course then the band split up and the singer died of cancer and HEY! Remember that song 'Mickey' by Toni Basil?"

― Daniel_Rf (Daniel_Rf), Monday, 27 October 2003 14:30 (twenty-two years ago)

How many suicides were on that list? It was really heartbreaking!

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Monday, 27 October 2003 14:31 (twenty-two years ago)

The VH-1 thing reminds me of an even greater (similar) bit of idiocy: Musician magazine, sometime in the early '90s, including the Pet Shop Boys in their list of "one hit wonders."

re: PGTW: I've owned this album for years and never actually listened to it all the way through, but obviously I must.

A couple small points:

Has anyone else noticed major similarities between "Pop Goes the World" and "Common People"? I'm absolutely convinced the latter is derived directly from the former. (That cheap synth sound, very similar rhythmic propulsion, even the vocal styles are kind of related.)

Also, "Pop Goes the World" is one of the better pop songs about pop I can think of, as if Andy Warhol decided to write a song about MTV (or better still, hired someone else to do it and put his name on it anyway). "Name of the band is the Human Race" is a great line.

The "J. Bonhomme" on drums thing always cracked me up, too (though maybe you need to be familiar with Quebec winter carnival rituals to fully appreciate it).

Oh, and the 12" mix of "Safety Dance" with the extended Casio-riff intro totally rules.

― s woods, Monday, 27 October 2003 14:44 (twenty-two years ago)

The Pet Shop Boys?????? HAHAHAHAHAHA! They had 3 hits off their debut in the US! Plus 2 off the followup! People over here didn't start ignoring them until _Introspective_.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Monday, 27 October 2003 14:53 (twenty-two years ago)

I know, and what really seemed weird is that it was in a magazine as supposedly thorough and "well-researched" as Musician! It was like, that's great that you keep a copy of The Billboard Book of Number One Hits at your desk; perhaps you should go all-out and buy a copy of The Billboard Book of Top 40 Hits, too!

― s woods, Monday, 27 October 2003 14:57 (twenty-two years ago)

That would have been classic if they picked the wrong song as their one hit (ie, "It's A Sin" instead of "West End Girls")

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Monday, 27 October 2003 14:58 (twenty-two years ago)

one year passes...

Still a great album. I really do think more and more that this is the non-canonical masterpiece of 1987 (though other suggestions are welcome).

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 7 February 2005 16:16 (twenty years ago)

Ned, how big a song was "Pop Goes The World"? I know it made the Top 40, but was it played a lot on radio and at clubs?

PS: a Village Voice review I read a couple of years ago alluded to "Pop" quite flatteringly. Thats when I realized that the tune's got a definite cult.

― Alfred Soto (Alfred Soto), Monday, 7 February 2005 16:23 (twenty years ago)

Ned, how big a song was "Pop Goes The World"? I know it made the Top 40, but was it played a lot on radio and at clubs?

Clubs I wouldn't know about (I was 16 and rather stay at home when it hit), but it was pretty consistently played on my local top 40 station for some months -- this was in San Diego.

― jendy wames, Monday, 7 February 2005 16:26 (twenty years ago)

The song hit the low 30s on the top 40 but did get a lot of radio play because DJs loved it.

I do love the 'band' portrait on the inside art:

Current fave underrated song on the album -- "In the Name of Angels," thanks to the way the synth horns come in on the chorus.

You can lose your head
And you can lose your mind
And you can lose your way

― The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Monday, 7 February 2005 16:38 (twenty years ago)

I remember them performing this on "Club MTV" (I assume when Julie Brown was still hosting). They didn't even pretend to be playing their instruments; they just kind of danced around with the snowman while the leprechaun sprinkled glitter on the dancers. Even if for that reason alone, CLASSIC.

― Joseph McCombs (Joseph McCombs), Monday, 7 February 2005 16:40 (twenty years ago)

Oh that would be beautiful. Please tell me a video clip exists somewhere.

Same thing performing on "Solid Gold", I remember. Had crush on leather jacket/stripe-shirt/jeans/McCartney bass blonde at the time. :)

― Joe (Joe), Monday, 7 February 2005 16:49 (twenty years ago)

They said we could walk on water
They said we should knock on wood
We did none of these things and they said we could sing
So we sang about falling in love
They said that we were getting smarter
They said that we were something new
We were none of these things and they said we could sing
So we sang about twenty and two
We done all the wrong things
And all we done good
They said we were the new beginning
They said we were a brand new start
We were none of these things and they said we could sing
So we sang about the state of the art
They said we were the second coming
They said we were a different breed
We were none of these things and they said we could sing
So we sang about the birds and the bees
Bunch of do nothing that were down on your knees

Can you walk on water?

Oh god I love this song. This really is one of the best songs ever, anywhere, and it's all in the arrangement and how this all just *works.*

xpost to Sean = Ha!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 7 February 2005 16:50 (twenty years ago)

I remember the Solid Gold performance! It was magical. And yes, "Walk On Water" is one of the greatest songs ever recorded.

― The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Monday, 7 February 2005 16:51 (twenty years ago)

Belinda Carlisle having beaten up McCartney and taken his bass.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 7 February 2005 16:51 (twenty years ago)

And yes, "Walk On Water" is one of the greatest songs ever recorded.

It's a bit like "Pop Goes the World" in that it's a song about music or rather how music is meant to be received/interpreted. Metacommentary shouldn't work but it DOES.

"Yes, we're allegedly the bright young modern things, thanks very much, now stop projecting."

A while back they were looking for a keyboardist/backup singer. I wrote them and said I couldn't play for shit but that I'd love to sing for them. The response was the nicest "dipshit, can't you read? BUH-BYE" letter I've ever received. I love them.

― The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Monday, 7 February 2005 17:04 (twenty years ago)

There's a new Men Without Hats album in the works for 2005, apparently. I'm anticipating a 5 city Canadian tour before they disapear once more. Who's coming?

six months pass...

Flat out, an amazing shot in the dark. I had followed MWH since "SD", bought "Rhythm of Youth" and their follow up, "Folk of the 80's, part III" (talk about your trivia question!). That latter album featured the bouncy "Where do the Boys Go", but little else. All of a sudden, PGTW hits in 87, with that surreal title track. I quickly picked it up, and could not believe my ears. What was this? Absolutely NOTHING like their previous efforts, from sound to quality of music.

As it is, there is NOT ONE weak moment in the effort! From start to finish, an incredible effort that if released after "SD", may have propelled the group to the upper reaches of fame. Timing IS everything. It is very nice to see such positive remarks about this "closet classic". For those who have not immersed themselves - get on Amazon NOW!

― Mitchin', Saturday, 13 August 2005 02:47 (twenty years ago)

I love this album to the ends of the fucking earth. Let me state clearly - POP MASTERPIECE, bar none. As much as I love "Safety Dance", "Living In China", and "Antartica", this is the shining moment that will sadly be forgotten, and leave a legacy of "Oh? Those quirky swedes with the snowman?" in it's wake.

Tremendous and unappreciated.

Men Without Hats - Pop Goes The World

I did listen to it again last night, of course it's also a good album. I just think the non-stop relentless pure technopop of the first two albums was impossible to beat & the lyrics were much more ludicrous & hard to accept as well.

Rhythm of Youth was one of the first five records I ever bought so objectivity's not an option, but I still love it, it's a weird record

― milton parker (Jon L), Tuesday, 29 November 2005 21:02 (twenty years ago)

'how big a song was "Pop Goes The World"? I know it made the Top 40, but was it played a lot on radio and at clubs?'

L.A.'s Power 106 played it quite a bit. Maybe not as much as Push It or Supersonic, but it was in the rotation. When I later got the CD as a cut-out the title track seemed like a different and not as good version than what I remembered from the radio.

― Carlos Keith (Buck_Wilde), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 09:41 (nineteen years ago)

I wonder if people who like this album would be into that Vermillion album that the Three O'Clock recorded for Prince's label in 1988 (which I was talking about on the psychedelic synth pop thread). I love that thing.

Right, he's clearly fluent in French but he speaks English without an accent around 1:30 here (when discussing how his media studies training is useful in manipulating the masses):
