  • An x-girlfriend loved this track. Couldn't remember the band name and pieced together the lyrics I could and you'd be surprised with the google results O-o. Fantastic sound, thanks for uploading this, fond memories.^^

  • Brings back good memories. Never made the charts here in the Uk, should have though,

  • @MultiBazilbrush Wow, that is something I did not know. Such a well written track. Must of released it at xmas and had to contend with the many cheesy records.

  • Bela canção!

  • Still a classic after all these years

  • temazo, la puta madre. que copado.

  • MI QUERIDO ERIK USTED ES COMO EL VINO CON EL TIEMPO CADA VEZ ESTA MEJOR , I LOVE THIS SONG MY DARLING, OLE OLE OLE OLE OLE OLE OLA, OLE OLE OLE CADA DIA TE QUIERO MAS OHHHH SOY DE ERIK ES UN SENTIMIENTO NO PUEDO PARAR. BUENA VIDA CARIÑO SIGUE ASI!!! Adriana de Argentina Calabria1966 tu fiel admiradora

  • Buena canción...!!! magnífica...!!!

  • Such a sweet song :)

  • What a tune , Just sent the link to the wife's work E mail to cheer her up monday am!!

  • @MrTomwatson24 Perfect : )

  • This band got their break on Hey Hey Its Saturday.

  • @RockinHana01 Strictly speaking not entirely true. Erik Weiderman got his break by appearing on Hey Hey, and a guy who was putting a band together (who used to be in Moving Pictures), saw Erik and they all got together. The rest as they say is history. Not wanting to be pedantic though.

  • 1988 I was really thinking of someone I will never forget, and especially that my dad dear was born in 1927! But OK we are 2011. What a wonderful song, I never will forget!

  • 1927 were playing at Springwood (logan at the Barra Bar) as much as we love them my hubby wouldn't let me go to the the bogan, logan, bad joint, despite loving 1927 and all your music. I am a high school teacher and even use "Compulsory Hero" always when I teach a grade 10, poetry/ songs of social comment unit. I completely go into detail re: vietnam war,conscription in oz , pol protest songs and the beautiful, powerful, poetic imagery of the song.

  • Top band and would of loved them to write and perform more than they did at their best.

  • Love it ...Eric You Rock. :) hey you.. are.. the ..best..I have been following you for years and baby ....YOU rock.!!......Love it...xx

  • Saw them last night! They were AMAZING!!!! :-)

  • great song, written from the perspective of a soldier at war thinking of home.

  • thanks HEY HEY true fans will know what im refering to

  • Who were the 2 rebels that disliked this song?

  • awesome old skool aussie rock. ageless!

  • My husband is an Aussie and introduced me to this group in 89. I just love them.

  • I love this song.. come rescue me!!

  • Man this song takes me back. The 80's were the best. So glad I was a teenager in the 80's.

  • love that bit at 3:46, so cute!!

  • 1927 had two songs that played here in Canada in the late 80's and 1990's. I LOVE this group and think it would be great for them to get back together again for us who loved 80's music and for another generation to enjoy.

  • @MumbaDude They are back together and play regularly here.

  • @MumbaDude they toured again just last year

  • @MumbaDude

    I first encountered them in SE Asia. Then returned to Canada. Then on one of our local FM stations: SURPRISE!!! (1927) on CHUM FM back then here in Toronto. This was one of those songs. Loved it.

  • @MumbaDude

    I was living in the Philippines: that is where I first encountered them (1988/89). When I returned to Canada, I heard this song. Great band! Got the album.

  • @MumbaDude This group exists today, look lhe files Weideman buena suerte y buena vida

  • Happy easter everyone!

  • Bitch all ya want ....Absolute top fukin tune man ...Makes me happy !

  • Comment removed

  • Yeah takes me back to my youth , that rocked and hech he was a sweetheart at that , but WHAT a Voice .... oooh lar lar :)

  • Man the quality of this is terrible. Blurry as heck and distorted - the original clip has 4:3 aspect ratio. This has the top and bottom cut off and then stretched as well. Yuck. Where on earth did you get this from?

  • under your mums bed

  • @MrArtvandelay99 Haha! I should have said that.

  • Do 1927 have any plans for shows in the Penrith area?

  • Erik & Paul will be at Twilight at Taronga concert this weekend in Sydney Friday 18th and Saturday 19th Feb. Can't wait for the concerts!!

  • Maxi single de 1927. Además del increíble (+++++) That's When I Think Of You y su versión remixada (una curiosidad), vienen dos temas inéditos: Willing And Able (+++) con un estilo más R&R - similar a su tema The Mess - y el excelente Alright (+++++),

  • roflmao...yanks, make good music???? not in my lifetime......

  • They performed in Afghanistan for the Aussie troops and the Yank troops that went along enjoyed their music

  • It's very easy to forget about these cunts...

  • They didn't make it in the US because Yanks are idiots

  • @MsDoug2009 The yanks that went and saw their performance for our Aussie tropps in Afghanistan, enjoyed it and said their music was great - incl this song

  • @Deanne070 is that on you tube ??,paul in melb

  • @TVCSD yes it is - not sure if you can do a link but if you search '1927 That's when I think of You played to soldiers', it will come up, the intro is done by Gretel Killeen

  • Fantastic! Don't understand why they didnt make it in the US! They are fantastic!

  • Great. Big. Dirty. Spunk. hahahahha

  • awesome song, i remember when it first came out way back in the day, still i wonder whats with the aeroplane being pushed away at the end of the clip?lol

  • Eric Weidemann was dicovered on red Faces, by Gary Frost, who is also in this band, he was also in Moving Pictures in the early 80's. 1927 recorded 3 albums between 1988-1992.

  • i wanna go back to 1987-88-89, in oz, what music , 1927, crowded house, martha davis, gyan , jenny morris, choirboys, proclaimers , bangles, roxette, hoodoo gurus, where are my tight jeans, "luv im off to the hairdressers to get my pompadour/ mullet , i'll be back later!"

  • this song brings back memories of my friends at uni!

  • really good song!I hope that this style of music makes a come back

  • I LOVE this song. This guy has such an amazing voice - did he ever make it in the US or anywhere elese ?

  • @Macsrellik No, but 1927 is back touring in Australia

  • @Macsrellik They didn't hit big in Puerto Rico but thats when I herd this song first I fell in love with it, but it took me 20 years to find, no title, no band name just a few words to mumble but thanks to internet I did and 1927 name for a band it was almost imposible, but one thing I knew for sure they where Australian, Ice house,Tears for Fear, Inxs, mid night ,outfield, love love you're music.
