Many of those looking forward to a life in a new paradigm consider this song as their battle hymn. I personally love the song.....the message it tries to convey.
@kkapalki I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU - THAT THE 80' WERE A FANTASTIC TIME FOR MUSIC (1981 WAS MY FAVOURITE YEAR ) I WAS IN MY LATE 20'S AROUND THIS TIME, WISH THE MUSIC OF TODAY WAS JUST AS INSPIRATIONAL STILL SOUNDS GREAT 30 YEARS ON
Loved it first time when I heard it..so long ago.it was Xmas 86.. just the xmas tree lights on,and the notes of the song..were reaching us..the beautiful girl that I fell in love with..and it were some of the best memories we ever had..that moment..I wish to find my way home..again..and that amazing unique feeling..of that days.best to all
I can think of nothing better that to see Vangelis lowered into the London Olympic stadium from a Greek Olympic Airways helicopter, belting out Chariots of Fire! That would be a world sensation! Followed by all the athletes running in slow mo!
I was 17 when this song was released and still love it today, that's how much music from this period means to me and although physically I cannot be 17 again, I will inside forever be trapped musically in the 80s
quality! its videos like this that help me piece the bits of the 80's i dont remember! great era to hit 16 and live through the 80s and make it into the 90's!
@JugsBrannigan That was when it finally broke into the top 30 in December 1981. It was Susie's final appearance on TOTP, and she was credited as a member of Zoo.
A video of her swansong performance can be found here on YouTube.
Bring back the 1570's! Bring back the 1190's! Bring back the Stone Age!
You haven't prefaced this with the "I'm only 14 and I prefer 60's/70's/80's music to the modern shite" type remark usually found in comments on old pop or rock music, so you're not a complete prat.
This is just pure brilliance - wish there were more songs like this ! Bless you for uploading, it is a complete joy and so uplifting and life affirming xxx
The Caption says Jon was ready to hit the road with Yes. I remember TOTP2 broadcasting this in late 1999 so Jon must have been preparing for The Ladder Tour out of which came Yes Live at the House of Blues.
A bloody incredible song... reminds me of the nights in A Sqn bar 5th Skins Imphal barracks Osnabruck W. Germany as it was back then. Fond memories every time I hear this song especially after a few drinks! Even back then I still found my way home... almost!
OMG this brings back memories ! And I remember there was a snow-drift covering Britain and Ireland at the time. Magical tune - and it hasn't aged at all!

I was ten when this came out it still sounds great. I was thinking about the tune and I didnt know the name or title. I thought about Vangelis and punched in the name. Then all of a sudden it was there the song by Jon and Vangelis ' magic'. love it.
venthesikimis This is an open page for opinions.What gives you the right to tell others to keep their comments to themselves when you just did yourself.Your comment tells me that you really are a very small creature who has something negative to give to give everyone, even a to a church picnic..You are an un-happy person who has a very heavy fate to carry out ,and work out in many future incarnations to come,and please keep you comments to your self GrassHopper!!!
I'm just addicted to this song from the moment I listened to it and it was long, long time ago. Time is passing but my fillings for this song stay and gets stronger!
@JonMcElectro The music industry has been dumbing down long before X Factor started. All X Factor has done is make any idiot think they are talented enough to inflict their horror on the rest of us and it is flashed on our TV screens all over the world.
