  • driving home after their concert this year, listening to them in the car - Round and Round comes on and I am SOBBING my eyes out, nearly crash the car coz I can't see - LOVE this song soooooooooo much -(had same effect 25 years ago after concert only dad was driving lol)

  • Love all Spandau Ballet's songs and also the 80' songs ...

  • music like this makes me forget about hatred brought upon us by muslim fanatics that fucked up this planet so quick! I wish I could go back to the 80s. with my old life, my old girlfriend, my old memories, my mother still alive, me younger, me happier.....

  • @vortech48 I SO hear you! Except for me it's my much missed father.

  • I LOVE THIS SONG!

  • I dont really understand why today is a shame to show in the music for young people (overall this audience) the side of being cute , sweet , full of fantasy just like children!

    They want next generation stupid acting like b**** and bumbumbumb !! No melody !! Anything !!.. miss me 80s ..

  • love this sooo much!

  • OMG ... Thank you so much for posting ... Words cannot express how much this video/song means to me ... Brings back so many happy memories ... Thanks again :) ((((big smile))))

  • 5 ppl dont like 80's music they think justin gayber and lady haha are real music

  • Tony Hadley has such an amazing voice.

  • This really brings back 1984

  • la voix de tony hadley est la marque de fabrique de Spandau Ballet

  • Timeless! This song epitomizes the music of the 80's. I miss the 80's....

  • I had an ordinary day today: I awoke, went to work, then home where I sat surfing YouTube. Stumbling upon this video took me back to 1984. I was 14, filled with dreams of being a pop star, wearing eyeliner and listening to Spandau Ballet, David Sylvian and Duran Duran. Now I sit flooded with happy memories of being young, full of unbridled hope and energy. It’s touching, sweet and sad. Thanks for posting this - it’s a great way to end a day of adult things: being transported back to youth.

  • @fahnke I like the way you think!! 

  • @fahnke One word sums it up, wow! You nailed it with such timeless words. Music is not as it was.........

  • Feels poigniant to life these days; remember it on release. Media ala vultures, politicians and their gaffs, 'History repeating' as the Dame released and even that was years ago

  • Love, love, love these guys. Singing with power and great lyrics and hot music and melody to make for what has to be one of the greatest bands ever. Ever!

  • I first heard this in 1993 on their singles collection cassette. It was track number 3 and I loved it straight away. I wonder is "Round and Round" a reference to the slow sets in discos... you know, when you holding your woman close an slowly going "round and round" to the music. "This is the game we came here for" indeed!

  • this is one of my top 3 SB songs - though i do not really recall it at release, discovering it on my missus best of album.

  • This very beautiful song is a classic! In the Philippines, they have 3 hit songs: "True", "Gold", and this amazing track. I don't know why in the United States, they are considered a one-hit wonder!?

  • @MrsMeowMix Actually they have 4 US top 40 hits which included "Only When You Leave". Only "True" was a major hit which reached #2. They had several more hits in the UK like Highly Strung, Chant No.1, I'll Fly For You, Heaven is a Secret, Communication, Through The Barricades, Fight For Ourselves, To Cut A Long Story Short, and Instinction. They are bigger outside the US like Canada, Germany and Australia.

  • @puppyjoe69 and new zealand bro!!!

  • ma che ricordi meravigliosi... grazie ragazzi

  • yeah folks, i love this song too. Spandau Ballet was a one of a kind band back in the 80's. yeah, hadley could pass for a pretty vampire in a movie. I just saw a later video of him in Italy, gained weight from all these years (like us), but u know its still the good looking him. i'm not gay, just telling the truth.

  • duran duran fuck !!!

  • i cannot wait to see them at sandown!!!!!

  • i love this song

  • This is the most touching song Spandau Ballet ever performed. Sure, "True" is the gold standard amongst fans, but there's a special sentiment about this track that makes it a subtle gem. A gorgeous, often-overlooked track by an under-appreciated band.

  • @TyphoidBryan totally agree with you.

  • forgot how good this song was & brings back a million memories thanks mate for posting it awesome

  • Saw these guys last weekend in Sydney and they were FABULOUS!

  • De las mejores de Spandau!

  • I remember hearing this song as a kid and liked it but didn't appreciate who sang it. Went to the Spandau Ballet concert in Adelaide, Australia last night and realised SB sang it. Awesome song, awesome band!!

  • Recuerdos de los 80´.......muchos recuerdos.

  • classic song but im giving the video some praise it kind of puts you into the wonderful world of children full of imagination my lad keeps telling me about ghosts in his school and bloody mary i have to smile wish i could be in his adventures

  • Ah I just love Tony so much. he is so charming and a really nice man. I have met him 3 times and he has time for all his fans which is what I like. The sign of a true gentleman that is

  • 03/03/2010 Spandau Ballet in Florence (Italy) The voice of Tony is great!!!!

  • If You Want More 80's Music, Check Out My Channel.

  • WHAT A VOICE

  • One of the best song of the 80'...I saw them in Naples(Italy) 1986

  • Another great song from the most memorable and greatest decade... The 80's!!!

  • spandau's calming melodies and voices used to sing me to sleep on my FM radio back in the good old days, i miss it.

  • Hope they are coming to Australia .... saw them when I was 16 for my very first concert.

  • you got your wish bud.

  • theyre coming!

  • I love Round and Round, beautiful track.

    Though I LOVE thier first 2 albums the best, "Parade" has some really beautiful ballads and pure pop genius moment indeed.

    I'll Fly For You being my FAV from "Parade" along with this, "Round And Round"...

    Steve Norman, marry me u sexy beast +

  • @nouveauxdecadence I agree with you on Parade-got the album on tape when I was 15 (8 years ago)and loved it ever since!

  • @nouveauxdecadence do you remember a longer opening sax intro on "i'll fly for you?" i had the cassette brand new and ive never heard it again

  • Saw them in Glasgow last month.....fantastic live band!!!

  • wow this group is good

  • wonderful memories of the 80s , such a long way back now... all hail to legends spandau ballet for giving me the best soundtrack to one of the greatest decades of my life.

  • loved Tony Hadley and Steve Norman. Bring back the 80's.

  • glad they reformed tony hadlee came to auckland nz last year with paul young,and sang at the zoo, hes far to good for that, if you were around in the eighties youll no what i mean.

  • Yes I do know what you mean. His vocie is just perfect. He sounds so good live and that is unusual because they sound shit some artists when they song live but he doesn't, could watch him all day live

  • I saw them too and went with my mum. Im 26 and mum would play their music in the 80s when i was growing up. I wore a black lace dress and red lipstick, very new romantic!

  • i went to see them last night in manchester they were excellent i didnt want it to end and steve norman is even more desireable than he was in 1983 xxx

  • gran tema,número uno en españa en 1984.

  • i saw them on the 20th, and they were awsome, you wont be dissapopinted i promise you!!

  • I miss the 80's :(

  • Hi hi, I used to listen to this in highschool ...

  • Memories of watching them on tour in sheffield.........with a tear....fantastic

  • Fab song, was out the day my daughter was born in 84, rock on guys.

  • This song was performed live on stage at the bands comeback concert in Dublin on Tue.night.Brilliant stuff.

  • Bittersweet....innocent days when all was just perfect, Spandau Ballet my favourite band, martin kemp my favourite man, endless summer days and dreams of tomorrow....when i see you all on October 21st and the familar music starts up, pure nostalgia will overtake me and i just know the tears will come....love you guys....xx

  • Ahhhh the great sound of summer of 84. Probably the one and only time I found true happiness and contentment in my life.

    Thanks to the music of spandau I still have some happy but fading memories of that time. Thanks so much for posting this great video

  • They are still a class act. Their latest single shows their musical maturity without losing the quality expected of them. Great to have them back

  • I had such a crush on Tony Hadley back in the day.

  • bellissima!!!

  • This is a lovable and an immortal song

  • It's hard to pick a fave Spandau song...but, this song is just so intense, so transporting - makes me cry even a little. So I guess if I had to say, this is it. Brilliant.

  • @falldownhard This just brought tears to my eye's also! I wish I could transport myself back to these days! Damn life was amazing then!

  • awh, such a lovely song, !! My fave by Spandau! x

  • can't wait for the concert in october!!

  • fuckin' great !!!!!!!!

  • pure 80's. what can u expect??? a decade of all the best music.

  • i found gold!

  • oh god, spent a fortune on gigs, merch n downloads since Take That reformed......My 20's BoyBand...........Gonna wipe me out following my 'teenage' boyband as well - but bloody worth it!!!!! End of the day - they are from Islington - feels like going home!!! Round and Round it goes, so True, pure Gold - like a 'Lifeline'.........I'm still so 'Highly Strung'!!!! <3 xx

  • Steve Norman is the bomb

  • tony hadley is insanely handsome..not even this appalling haircut cant change it

  • Wow. I love Hadley's voice.

  • @schelinfrey

    love it !

  • I love spandau....Tony Hadleys voice is magical!!

  • Round and round it goes..

  • Saw Spandau in the 80's at the Apollo Manchester, Now I get to see them at the M.E.N Manchester. Does it get any better than that!

  • good for you! can't beat the vocal work of Tony Hadley! Younger singers can learn from him!

  • You don't see enough of Gary in this video!

  • eisai foustis kai se kavalikevun epibitores

  • Yippee got tickets to go see em!!!

  • Me too!!!!!

  • got mine going to glesgie

    looking so forward to it

  • the cinematographer did a great job lighting up members of the spandau ballet in this video. By they way, THEY ARE BACK! Reunion tours will be announced on March 25th.

  • great song....but, can someone explain how the video clip relates to the song? I thought this is a love song, about relationship...don't understand how it relates to the kids?

  • Most videos and songs never really go together, MTV was full of songs with visuals and lyrics that did not go together,

    but in the lines of this song they are referring to younger selves and their fantasies....but directors always come up w/something to do in videos....

  • Sarah F where are you!!!!!!! this song makes me think of us xx

  • Forget her! She became a divorced princess! Don't you read the papers?

  • Nobody writes songs like this anymore. I really feel sorry for today's kids. They missed out on some great music!

  • Comment removed

  • yeah!

  • Quality song...Quite an underrated song coz I only hear of 'true' or 'gold' being played by music shows.

  • AZTIG SPANDOU

  • The best memories of my life summarized in this wonderful song. Thank you very much :)

  • Add &fmt=18 to the url to get this video with stereo sound. :)

  • i loved this song sooooooooooo much !!!! still love this song-awesome vocals by Tony Hadley and amazing blue eyes of Martin kemp and total cuteness of John keeble

  • great!

  • I love this song, it conjures up so many good memories.

  • my favorite Spandau BaLLET song!! Played on our graduation ball year 1985!!

  • Mitici!!!

  • 'Oh I was just beginning to grow strong

    She was only eighteen summers long'

    Thats what im talking about!

  • ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    I LOVE THIS BAND

    JUST LOVE

    this is a realy awesome song

  • Tony has a suberb mullet, great song tho! :-)

  • Tony I love you

  • I LOVE THIS SONG!!

  • gran banda tony hadley magnifico

  • So good !

  • why this band only released 3 or 4 LPs?

    does anybody know?

  • ego, money, drugs, & lawsuits. the usual rock & roll crap.

  • pennytee, what a lame remark.

    Spandau Ballet needed a break from each other, I belive it was Gary Kemp who wrote the songs, but trouble emerged when he found interest elsewhere, in acting. Together with his brother, Martin Kemp, they at ended in a movie ( forgot the title ). Gary also had a role in the movie "The bodyguard". Spandau also couldnt compete with their style "New romantic" towards the late 80is and early 90is style of music. Leadsinger, Tony Hadley is still singing with John Keeble

  • "the attended in a movie"

  • was i was told that it was their manager who maked spandau to break up...

  • to be frank, they broke up because their last album was a commercial and critical failure.

  • I know you wrote that comment a month ago whisperss but I think the film you forgot the title of was The Krays(1990), Martin Kemp played Reggie Kray and Gary Kemp played Ronnie Kray, fantastic film. Is that the film you were meaning?

  • hey there Emcardno, hmm not sure to be honest, I havent looked into it, or seen the movie :) But I just knew they were getting interested in doing movies and television...and sadly, nothing last forever, neither Spandau, but always gratefull they startet the new music style = New romantic :)

  • Such a sensitive start for that song... :-)

  • A song of my teenage years...to my best friend...round & round we go! OK a Duran fan here and in the day you could only love one ....but...this song does it. Love it..but don't tell Simon Le Bon. ha!

  • This was such a great song. I never saw this video either back in the day even tho i was a HUGE Spandau fan. UGH what a letdown. This song diserved much, much better.

  • This is such a heart balm. Those were innocent and happy days indeed. I miss this song and the memories tied to it.

  • he is just roming around

  • Didn't see this video "back in the day" (problem with living in the southern USA), but it's now one of my favorites :D

  • ...and you would be right!! They are all fab!!

  • I love the concept of this one as well...fits the song really well...fab song!

    I love every Spandau song...so I'm going to say everything is fab! lol!

    xoxoxo
