Animotion - Obsession


[1985]
80s 80s 80s

Blue light disco!

Check out this video. Look at these guys. Absolute creepy dorks but overly confident creepy dorks who think they are such spunks, so 80s. The 80s where everyone was hot, all you had to do was believe. These psychos are obviously from 80s LA and surely Bret Easton Ellis based a few characters on them.

Then again maybe they were just being hilariously ironic and maybe they were just fucking cool... I mean they aren't that cool but those absurd bass lines are so funny they have got to be a little in-joke right.

Whether it's cool, daggy or swathed in layers of irony is kinda beside the point though as Obsession is just a whole lotta undeniable fun. So much so that it's just fun.

Who do you want me to be
to make you sleep with me

The actual tune Obsession is like Giorgio Moroder on crack. Insane in your fucking face dance rock that sadly didn't make it to Number one in Canadia only reaching number seven and reaching number twelve here in Australia.
