Lyrics:
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Hit that perfect beat-boy
Searching for some company
Feel the rhythm dance with me
Then beat-boy blues seem out of place
Now, they want to party pace, party pace
Dance, dance on the floor
Dance, dance move some more
Dance, dance feel the heat
Hit that perfect beat-boy, hit that perfect beat, beat-boy
I've got that feeling, then beat-boy feelings
I've got then feeling all over me
I've got that feeling, then beat-boy feelings
I might've got that feeling, that perfect beat
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Hit that perfect, hit that perfect, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Hit that perfect, hit that perfect, hit that perfect beat-boy
Come, come, close to me, I want this to be
That perfect feeling all over me
Come, come, close to me, I want this to be
That beat-boy feeling all over me
Too close for comfort, too close for joy
Boys in the back room, they got homie at all?
Touch and kiss a stranger, if all else fails
Hit that perfect beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-beat-boy
I've got that feeling, then beat-boy feelings
I've got then feeling all over me
I've got that feeling, then beat-boy feelings
I might've got that feeling, that perfect beat
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Hit that perfect, hit that perfect, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Hit that perfect, hit that perfect, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, beat-beat beat-boy
Hit that perfect beat-boy, beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, beat-beat beat-boy
Hit that perfect beat-boy, beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy
Hit that perfect, hit that perfect, hit that perfect beat-boy
Beat-boy, beat-boy, hit that perfect beat-boy

I might've got that feeling, that perfect beat

SongFacts:
"Hit That Perfect Beat" is a song by British synthpop trio Bronski Beat from their second album Truthdare Doubledare (1986). In January 1986 it reached number three on the UK Singles Chart and entered the top 10 in several European countries, Australia and South Africa.
The song's video featured frontman and vocalist John Foster wanting to join the group after reading an advertisement in a newspaper and seeking an audition to join the group. The video also features the other two band members playing with Foster at a Liverpool club called The State, as well as scenes from the Stanley Dock area and overlays from the 1985 film Letter to Brezhnev.

Retrospective Synthpop : Truthdare Doubledare de ce qui reste de Bronki Beat
Tumblr media
Un être vous manque et tout est dépeuplé. Pour ce second album, Steven Bronski et Larry Steinbachek se retrouvent sans Somerville, parti former le groupe Communards. Une voix qui était un peu l'âme du projet. Ce dernier est remplacé par John Foster, qui ne fait certes pas un mauvais travail mais n'a évidemment pas la magie et la même prestance que Jimmy. Ayant conscience de la simplicité de sa prestation, Bronski Beat essayent de compenser en remplissant le mixage. Synthés à foison, forcément, mais aussi cuivres, grattes, chœurs, tout y est, même de la flûte sur « Do It ».
Cela ne suffira pas. Truthdare Doubledare n'est pas un mauvais album, mais il en fait trop et ne sait pas sur quel pied danser. Seul le titre éponyme reprend les rythmiques jazz (pastiche de cabaret ici) présentes sur le premier album, ce qui n'est pas stupide, vu son oubliabilité. On retrouve aussi un peu d'Hi-NRG sur le single « Hit That Perfect Beat » (dont Sabrina reprendra les gimmicks sur « Hot Girl », entre autres) ; ils sont là dans leur élément, ils savent y faire. Avec « Punishment for Love » on a là les deux meilleures pièces. On ne peut pas en écrire autant pour « C'mon C'mon », deuxième single choisi, d'un tropicalisme kitsch qu'ils ont essayé de distiller ici et là sur l'album (les percus et le gospel de « This Heart ») et on sent au vu de la pochette que c'est une direction qu'ils auraient voulu prendre, mais qu'ils n'ont pas assumé jusqu'au bout. Enfin, les ballades « We Know How it Feels » et « In My Dreams » ne sont pas désagréables, rappellent presque les compositions les plus moyennes d'ABC. On peut penser aussi à « The Seeds of Love », l’œuvre de Tears for Fears qui, en ayant voulu trop en faire, les a perdus.

Par ce besoin de compenser, le trio offre assez à boire et à manger pour sauver, non pas les meubles mais au moins le vaisselier. Et ainsi, produire quelques instants musicaux, quelques jams, quelques mélodies du plus bel effet, perdus dans un album perdu d'avance, aussi généreux que défectueux.

Uncertain where he's going
Uncertain of his love
Uncertain what is coming
Is this the punishment for love?
