On just the technical aspects of song writing of song writing Mr. Jones' puts on a clinic. The fact that he can make it rock is real talent at work. An icon song of the era among some pretty stiff competition. I like What is Love better just for personal reasons but this song is so inspirational it is impossible not to buy into the message.
Howard Jones was a kind of genius for his day. North Americans were stunned by this blonde haired geeky looking guy that was pumping out these great compilations.
Heeeeyyyyyy MurphysMob this is music and no the actual sounds that we are listening in this times thanks everybody for share this memories from my youth i wake up every morning and go to sleep with my 80 s music where they gone? all the artists from the best decade of music please come back to make happy all the people like me love the 80 s forever. Thanks and god bless you.
Howard Jones, Thompson Twins, Depeche Mode and Robert Smith (The Cure) redefined music in this new synthesized age. Unfortunately for music, "things got much worse" for music. R and B mixed with the nasty Rap genre and it brought music down to the gutter. Where it is today. It takes some most likely one or two-hit wonders like New Republic, and an occasional solo from Hayley Wiliiams or the voice of the beautiful Natasha Bedingfield.
When Obama destroys America let's all put oour money together and buy a lot of land and we will call it Land of the 80's or something and It will be like america in the 80's.
i wonder how much fun i wouldve had if i was twenty in the eighties! id probably be a multi- platinum artist by now. im immensly certain the olderheads from the eighties have tons of fun with their pure and genuine music.
the musical acts of today are culturally embarrassing, just look up D4L and SOLJA BOY
Awsome song miss this kind of music terribley maybe one day it will come back GREAT memories listening to this music not like this auto tune crap now.
One of my favorite songs of all time!! Oh how we danced 'til dawn to this song! I heard a Howard Jones song today on the radio and when I got home I couldn't wait to hear all of them! So many good memories of my 20's!! Love him. Such a talent!!
@assholemon i agree w/ the other two posters. 90s had just as much good music in multiple genres as the 80s did. its in the 2000s (esp the last half of the decade, 2005-2010) where commercial music completely and utterly died. IMO.
@kcmet79- OH hell ya I think the same thing, rite on the button.. thats pretty much how I sum up my opinion on mainstream music to anyone, especially pop music.. Thank god youtube hit in 2005 haha
The 80s was a renaissance decade. A lot of inspiration swirling between bands. I could feel this movement in film and music that synched people together. Whether it was punk or big hair in oversized suits there was this underlying absurdity that became intoxicating! Just put me in a room with these people and chances are I'd like everyone of 'em.
I know it's kinda stupid but I kinda like the version on The SIMs 2: Open for Business Expansion pack more than the original ^_^
Depeche Mode's Suffer Well however didn't actually fit in with the genre though. They should've used some of their older stuff like People are People, Everything Counts or even Can't get Enough.
What could be better, strolling thru the Mall in the "80's" and listening to HoJo, Roxy Music, the Cars, Van Halen, Genesis and all the rest! Perfect !
@jdcovington Cruising Northern California's Highway 880 (at the "record" speed of 60 mph!) in my "sleek" charcoal-grey '84 Accord, while listening to all the '80s artists you mentioned -- and more! (Bring back those good ol' days!!!)
You are an eternal optimist, always finding the silver lining and looking on the bright side of things. This can get a little tedious for your cranky friends, who call you Pollyanna and Goody Two Shoes behind your back, but they secretly wish they were more like you. You frequently hug and comfort strangers
I always hear this song in the morning before going to school and I didn't know who sings it but now I know!! was this guy considered cute in the 80's?
I totally love this song!! I remember when this song first came out.. Such good memories come with this song. Of course this one here is a remix , the original is much better for days!! Anyway, I remember hanging out with my friends and just having the best times- I sure miss those days so much!! Such great music from this era and this time of my life. Sure wish I could go back to those times in my life but at least I have the memories in my heart and the songs from the 80's ! 80's forever!!
@juniebird72 Amen. Cherish those memories. ^_^ I'm envious that you have some "mature" memories. Most of mine are foggy, because I was just a young kid (born in 81). I still remember a lot, though... I remember the great music on the radio at get-togethers, and out on the lake with my family. And dancing at a family 4th of july block party at the sweet and tender age of 3 or 4. Man... I'm getting misty just telling you about it. (Blessings to you!)
@juniebird72 I remember back in the day being a summer intern listening to this song and others and thinking how freaky the bunch I was working for were so old and weird from the sixties and they looking at me like I was a goofball kid who listened to weird music and wore weird clothes. I how summer interns now and realise they are probaly feeling the same way I did back then! heh heh heh (and it makes me feel a little old to think I think that way about them!) heh heh heh
heheh...just took the fb quiz, also. Seems to me, with 10 questions (min 5 choices each), there are over 9 million possible outcomes. Howard Jones seems to be most of those outcomes ;)
I got this song from my facebook...and I actually liked the song but sometimes you cant understand a word they say i just like the whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa!!!
I had a whole dance routine for this song when I was like 4 or 5 and just took the FB quiz and this song came up as my defining 80's song too!! LOL best thing is I've always considered myself "a Pollyanna" so it was funny that was part of the definition of the personality of the song. hahaha
I met HJ at the Grammy Awards after-party in the early 80s and had the chance to visit a bit with him. He's as smart as he is talented. He didn't have attitude. He didn't need it; he had brains and talent.
I LOVE this song! It's so catchy- I heard the simlish (or gibberish) version of it on the Sims 2 and it was driving me crazy! It was so catchy and then I heard it this evening on the 80's channel and got all excited cuz it was an actual song! From my fav decade, no less! :D
They make no more songs like these and of the 80's, lucky to be of that generation. I don't listen to the new stuff much, just hear it once and shrug my shoulders. Great to find this old track it was at the top of charts for a long time those days.
As someone who came of age in the 80's, I appreciate all this music so much more nowadays. I now really realize the depth of musicianship in some of the artists from this era. I like some of today's music but there' nothing quite like music that is reflective on one's youth. Thanks so much for posting the extended version. Many thanks. And yes I admit I wanted to dance a bit myself. (and I'm a horrid dancer.) :-)

I LOVE this song! It's so catchy- I heard the simlish (or gibberish) version of it on the Sims 2 and it was driving me crazy! It was so catchy and then I heard it this evening on the 80's channel and got all excited cuz it was an actual song! From my fav decade, no less! :D

They make no more songs like these and of the 80's, lucky to be of that generation. I don't listen to the new stuff much, just hear it once and shrug my shoulders. Great to find this old track it was at the top of charts for a long time those days.

What, only a few comments about this talented artist? The 80's had the best energetic, best sounding of all years.

As someone who came of age in the 80's, I appreciate all this music so much more nowadays. I now really realize the depth of musicianship in some of the artists from this era. I like some of today's music but there' nothing quite like music that is reflective on one's youth. Thanks so much for posting the extended version. Many thanks. And yes I admit I wanted to dance a bit myself. (and I'm a horrid dancer.) :-)

This song reminds me of being 15 years old. i love it(the song i mean, not the age).

I wish I could think of the 1980's when I think about being 15.
Instead I just think about how dull and boring pop culture was in 2007-2008.
