"where`s the purpose in your life? where`s the truth? do you remember your hopes...your dreams?" So simple phrases and so deep that makes me feel think about that all the time. Thanks for that girls...Kisses of life for you.
Remember sittin in the Capri, outside the Gillars Green flat in St helens, listenin to it over and over, not wantin it to end, cos there was no internet or wi fi in 1992
I like singing this song out loud. Specially when I'm sad and hopeless. I think the lyrics are pretty honest. House can touch our hearts if the producers want to.
1991 right? Jeez.....what memories.....last year of GCSE's...flew for the first time to Spain, Torrevieja and had an amazing time with my mate for 2 weeks....and just all the school stuff that followed....i was 16.x
Back to a time when good music was still clinging on by it's fingertips. Great classic dance tune, melodic and uplifting. Best in it's normal 7" single mix version.
listen to the lyrics from this melody, they are so real , they had changend my vision of life, I am living a different life now and I am greatfull to who had written this song. This is your life , of course and you have to live it every day as if it were the last day of your life, full of joy and doing good things
Very good song. I remember this song with good memories in 1991 i live in a living group in gronau near the netherlands in germany. greets an all of the members there.
I remember this as a 'cool, funky, relaxing' song, that my good friend, Kenny McMinigal, brought back to my mind about 3 years ago in a West End, Glasgow bar - forgot I had it on vinyl, mate. Here's to you, pal! :o))) Slanj! ~~Neil Carey~~
I love this song... how deep meaning it has in its words people..."this is not a story this is not a book this is your life"...i love it :-) and i couldnt ever even think to hear it from another voive.....!!!!!!!!!!
...one of the best songs ever written....love it !!! Why does she have a shaved head ? Was she in a depression back then ???? Does anyone know ? What has become of her ?
I looooove this song ! Glad I've found it here. Its a classic, dancing, inteligent and a bit sad, isnt it ? My amazing friend Roberto and i used to dance to this song at the Ocidente club in Porto Alegre, Brazil, in early 90's. What a wicked time we had. here is to you Roberto, our song !!! Charles
A forgotten gem. This track and the album it came from are truly fantastic. It's strange that this group were so short lived when some far inferior bands go on for ever.
this takes me back to an earlier career in the early 90s,i was a bit of a bad lad & always in trouble with the boss (or bosses),its funny how this song has always stayed with me as a kind of "make your mind up song"
this girl's got something special maybe her eyes, i don't know. This song's give me some freezes and it's very pleasant !now this my life listenning this song eveyday !!!!
do you think this sounds like early madonna??if you look away and just listen you can just see madonna doing a great video to this,great song any way.
The older I'm getting the more aware I'm getting of that.
Incredible lyrics.
Your comment explains the class of this song. EEEEKK I've just seen your channel Living color and the nightcrawlers. Used to hear that LC song on Atlantic 252 all the time along with this back then oohh the memories........
I have been looking for another of Banderas´ great videos, the one made for the song "May This Be Your Last Sorrow", 1991, directed by Anton Corbijn...please comment if you know where I could find it. Thanks!
When my brother was alive and we were vacationing on the baltic sea some many years ago we were listening to this song on the radio. I, for some reason remember that moment for the rest of my life. My brother and I remembered that moment, that all it maters to me. He's gone now and i'm sad but i know i have that memory of him and me listening to the song and the fact makes me happy, he liked it as much as I did :) I miss you bro so much!
Fantastic song from a fantastic album! And it lives again...there are new mixes about now and it is released on Feb 9th, the main mix by 7th Heaven featuring Banderas!!! :-)
one of the loneliest songs about life. Truly beautiful - it's a shame this one (including 'Ripe' album) sank like a stone... Listeners - restore this one into your memory. This IS your life :)
further to the person looking for this track i was looking for an album for years but i eventually struck lucky at a small market record shop in clacton essex
please listen to the words , they are really meaningfull . the person trying to get a copy try car boot sales , you can strike lucky . you might be lucky to get it at berwick st market soho london . wish you luck in your search
I've got the one and only cd the made, Ripe. Now I understand that there still an interest in this obscure record from 1991. I will hold on to my copy. She has a great voice.
