Track Description
Available in:
"Ooh to Be Ah" is a song by English band Kajagoogoo, released in 1983 as the second single from their debut album White Feathers, and was produced by Duran Duran keyboardist Nick Rhodes and producer Colin Thurston. It was the band's second biggest hit, peaking for two weeks at number 7 on the UK Singles Chart. It was the follow-up single to "Too Shy" and describes the fact that the clothes you wear do not make you famous.
Reviewing the song for Record Mirror, Jim Reid wrote "bearable… just. Kajagoogoo are clearly aiming for the pre-speech market. Imagine the scene. Lots of trendy young mothers have just left Mothercare and are headed for their local record store. Mum enters with baby, and baby is dazzled by all the bright lights and Boy George posters. Baby speaks. "Ga ga goo goo… burp, hic… Oooh ah ah". Mum buys the new Kajagoogoo single. Baby is satisfied. My, what a marketing technique! Next month EMI lauches new band 'Muma Muma'".
Kimblerley Leston for Smash Hits wrote "imagine "Too Shy". Keep all its tricks and twiddles, take away its vital hook and this is what you're left with. A very thin record, indeed, with an almost stunning lack of melody and some really – I mean really – insane lyrics. It'll probably be a monstrous hit but it deserves to flounder.
The music video was filmed in Regent Street, London, in and around the Café Royal, and features Christopher Timothy and Kenny Everett
