Im a big EBM and New Wave lover Old School (As you can see in my channel here on YouTube) but i love these tracks as well because my sisters were playing it...brings back memories and ofcourse is this music still timeless...:-)
The intro sounds fairly similar to "Waiting For A Girl Like You" but it's still a great song, definitely one of Foreigner's most underrated hit songs of their career
Sounds like this guy is desperately trying to convince himself that it's not the end of his world when you can clearly tell he's devastated when he says I hope that somewhere deep in your heart that yesterday will live on.It's too bad when people are feeling this way they just can't man up and throw pride and bs out the window and realize life's too short to hold back and just allow the heart to take over and do the right thing..lesson learned,the heart doesn't lie..
Great song, sucks that this song doesn't get timeless airplay like many of their hit songs do, that is also the case with "Say You Will" and "I Don't Want To Live Without You"
Thumbs up if you saw Lou Gramm on TMZ!!!!!!!!!!!!! Unreckognizable but who cares he has the best voice in the world (one of em) and I love him! If I had ONE question-like if I were TMZ I would ask about this song! Who inspired it!? What would YOU ask?
@Tamber24 Many radio stations play the 80s on a certain day. One I listen to plays 80s all day on Saturdays and one station used to play 80s all the time.
A life that has deserted me left me in despair........fighting back the tears...I never let myself cry.........but that was yesterday, love was TORN from my hands.....so epic, so tragic
I heard this in the grocery store today, and it brought back a flood of memories, so I came looking for it here. This song breaks my heart every time, in the way a great song will.
@girlwalkerII ... hi, listen to Songs like this, helps me to remember, not only faces, even feelings, and everything comes back, peace by peace, like puzzle, ...but very very huge!!! :))))))
@girlwalkerII ....I'm right there with ya...I'm the class of '83....when you find out, PLEASE let me know....it seems as if I missed a decade or 2 somewhere down the line.....I don't like being mid 40's....;)
it was all about cutoff shirts rock band iron on shirts, and alotta hairspray! However it was my teenage years that i would not change for anything.Thats when I met my wife became a man and did exactly what I said I was gonna do! God bless the 80s!
The 80s? Good rock, good hard rock, good metal, good pop and good pop/rock. Think about it....Foreigner, The Police, Sting solo stuff, Simple Minds, The Fixx, Tears For Fears, Pat Benatar, Heart, Men at Work, Bryan Adams(Reckless album awesome!), Van Halen(both Sammy and Dave), Def Leppard, Whitesnake(1987 album so good), Genesis, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest(Defenders of the Faith lp..oh yeah), etc etc etc....what a decade of great variety and I loved so much of it.Thank goodness a few still tour
Good old days of our youth? Thats a good one! I think back to the 80's and all it does for me is bring back alot of bad feelings for a few people. Yes the music was great, But some of the things that happened back then will never be right for any of us.
graaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaciaaaaaaaaaassssssssssssssssssssss por este disco no sabia como se llamaba , ggggggggggggggggggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrraaciasssssssssss lo amo amo este tema
Well incase your cd got scratched or stolen even, here's what to do;
Install Audacity, set recrording device as your soundcard's speaker output, set input level low (mine is at 1) since anything over .5 decibels will flatline and sound cruddy later on playback. Record this and export it as a wav. file onto the desktop. Listen and enjoy. For further listening pleasure, you can use wma ogg converter (free) to make the wav a wma file (don't use audacity's wma type) to put on a flash drive for car
@trd2009 But I don't want mp3, mp3 sucks azz. Wav files are full quality with no distortion, and wma type 2 is virtually impossible to tell from that. Mp3 is so compressed you can't even hear the seagulls in the background of music like JeanMichael Jarre's oxygen or equinox albums.
This is a great song by Foreigner. Brings back some incredible memories of my college years! Great video. Thanks for uploading the lyrics along with it! Superb job!
Foreigner was my mom's favorite band, She died 4 years ago and we played this song at her funeral so everytime I listen to it I cry but it's a good song.
1985 was my best time i was always at jax beach when it was still fun you could hang out at the beach and really have fun without getting bothered by the police
man this song has been driving me nuts. I love it so much, but I didn't know the name. I would have to say at least a YEAR because I didn't know the name.
@Capcoor Sad the radio will ony play one good song every 6 months in todays world.... bout last month, i heard Bohemian Rhapsody on the radio.... soo 5 more months till the next good song
That was yesterday!!!! My memories!!!!
