Beautiful People (Australian Crawl song)

"Beautiful People" is the 1979 debut single released by Australian rock band Australian Crawl and later appeared on their debut album The Boys Light Up (1980). The song was written by James Reyne and Mark Hudson, former bandmates.

Australian Crawl caught the attention of Little River Band’s guitarist David Briggs, who helped them to a recording contract with EMI and produced their first single. "Beautiful People" was released in August, 1979 and peaked at #22 on the Australian Singles Chart.

The song satirised the vacuous elite of mid-1970s Melbourne's Toorak society:

In 1975, Reyne was living in South Yarra, Victoria whilst attending Monash University and playing drums for Archie Slammit and the Doors.

The Making of "Beautiful People" (1979) was a mini-documentary broadcast on Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) TV pop show Countdown and featured Geoff Cox (later hosted Coxy's Big Break) guiding the audience from the studio sessions to the pressing of the 7" vinyl and finishing with Australian Crawl's performance on Countdown.

The Crawl made a memorable debut on Countdown performing "Beautiful People" as Reyne appeared with both arms encased in plaster. He had been hit by a car in Swanston St, Melbourne breaking bones in both wrists, an episode chronicled in the song "Indisposed". Although "Beautiful People" only reached #22, it remains one of their most popular songs.

It was written by Brown, Jean Baptiste, Marco Benassi and Allessandro Benassi, and was produced by the latter two. Musically, "Beautiful People" is an uptempo song which draws from the genres of electro house, dancehall and Europop, and contains influences of R&B. The song's lyrics revolve around Brown encouraging "everyone on the dance floor to keep their heads up and discover the beauty inside."

"Beautiful People" received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised its production and lyrics. In the United States, the song peaked at number one on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart, and became the first number-one single for both Brown and Benassi. It also reached the top ten in Australia, Ireland, New Zealand and the United Kingdom, and the top twenty in Belgium and Denmark. The accompanying music video was released on March 22, 2011, and features personal footage of Brown's everyday life. The video also features appearances from several of Brown's famous friends, including Diddy, Bow Wow, T-Pain, Nelly, Timbaland, among others. Brown promoted the song with live performances on Dancing with the Stars (U.S.), the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards, and the 54th Grammy Awards. It was also included on the set list of his 2011 F.A.M.E. Tour.

Beautiful People (band)

Beautiful People are a British techno- dance group. Having been granted permission to sample any Jimi Hendrix song they wished, they released " If 60's Was 90's". Originally released in 1992 in just the UK, a similarly named album, If 60's Were 90's, was also issued. In 1993, they released " Rilly Groovy", which made No. 3 in the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs chart; on the back of this, "If 60's Was 90's" was re-released and made No. 74 on the UK Singles Chart, and No. 5 on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart.

In 2012, Beautiful People had a No. 100 hit with a pre-release cover version of " Turn Up the Music" by Chris Brown. This can be attributed to people typing in "Beautiful People Turn Up the Music", as Brown performed a medley of "Turn Up the Music" and his song " Beautiful People" at the 2012 Grammy Awards.
