Without trying to sound too melodramatic, there are those within the music industry who believe that Neil Finn is/was music's greatest songwriter.....BIG NAMES at that.
Dear Father Time, now look this song is 20 years old and I never thought it would go by so quickly and yes I wasted it but is there any chance I can have it back and I promise to do something useful with it next time.
I love this song but, wow, sometimes I think people just look at pop that doesn't suit their tastes and decide to judge all modern music by that. I'm just glad I can enjoy this along with a Nicki Manaj song, some Jay-Z, a little Daft Punk, and some Cold War Kids. Loving the classics is great, but it doesn't hurt to get modern.
wow, didnt quite anticipate the level of popularity my original comment would make. Im honestly not occupying a high horse as some have suggested! All music must matter to someone now and forever.. but at the time i the comparable numbers filled me with much despair and i had to ask my question. Have a nice day guys!
The funny thing is: this junk was panned in the 80s the same way pop in 2012 is, you just have an emotional attachment to it. This was the equivalent of a Katy Perry jam back in the 80s.
for over thirty years i always thought that "tears for fears" sang this song, i'm glad i never got in an argument over who sang this song. i would have felt pretty stupid.
When this song was re-made by Six Pen None the Richer I cahnged the channel every time. Not even close to the original. It just made me weant to hear this classic again.
@Balachulish Exactly! It has this timeless quality to it. And the message: "Life is tedious & tragic - but never give up, never stop trying to make it better."
@jayatfreelance Here's my final two cents worth on this ditty, if I may...My mentioning believing this song is more relevant today than the year it was released does imho indeed have to do with not giving up (do you think the stakes of giving up are higher today than circa 1988? and that said struggle to hang on on a daily basis feels on the verge of going downright medieval)?
It could also I might add be considered a song about the Apocalypse...ok ciao! done trolling...carry on ; )
@Dukesfan100 How true my friend I was in my prime in college 20 something years old and not a care in the world. What I would not give to do it just one more time. Sadly that will never happen in truth my memories all the good and bad there still there when I loose those I hope I am gone from this earth. Getting on here and talking to others closer to my age that knew the 80's and listening to music always brings back the very best days of my life and that is worth smiling about.
this song still matters to people 26 years after it was released. will Nicki Minaj's 'Stupid Hoe' >>>>> (which has 34,136,570 views) matter to anyone in 2038??
@makerwidow lol i don't even know that song or artist, true! i always thought the parade of bullshit would end with beiber and rebeca black but they still make more of them? thank god for youtube keeping these classics around.
@makerwidow Yeah it will, Because it'll remind them of being young, But I understand the point you're trying to make, Good music still exists, But it's not promoted now, Thats all
@makerwidow The reason this song matters 26 years later imho is because it was actually written for THIS AGE...26 years ago few people recognized it - did these aussie lads realise it themselves (the Christian symbolism in the video suggests they had an idea), I wonder, but Stephen King did, and is why it was used in the TV miniseries 'the Stand' in mid-90's...Now here we are each of us being demanded to make said Stand once and for all - so who is it going to be...?
@zsofiakatalin Oops! You're right, that won't do confusing those two...I wasn't aware, sorry about that...but it does make sense somehow (what a bummer to read the comments re: the tragedy that struck these guys in the 90's - wasn't aware of that either).
@jayatfreelance I'm sticking to my guns on this one Jay...btw I think there are two crosses and a cut away from somebody kneeling in prayer...Christian music was definitely NOT enjoying much of any real mainstream success in 1987 (outside of Amy Grant perhaps - if that counts)...and even today to get Warner bros. to allow Christian imagery in a secular video would be a hard sell...but it's the lyrics that found my judgment...and I had never even realised until I heard it on the radio last month.
@veelalynne Think about it, times have changed DRAMATICALLY since then, though not so much for the best. It is also MUCH MORE important about the overall conduct of the song's composition and what it truly represents. Why do think that the freak show 'Stupid hoe' is appropriate or beneficial in anyway? Authentically good people will say NO. Unfortunately others like yourself do not see it. Accept the fact that Nicki Minaj's noise (and other's alike) has NO proper meaning behind it.
@RJFlashCOM I think you might have misunderstood what I was trying to say. I was being facetious in saying that no matter how bad a song is (in this case "stupid ho") some dumb person will remember it fondly. I actually hate that song.
@veelalynne yup, I misunderstood, sorry. That's true, music can 'take you back' regardless of the content. But, I just feel bad for those who don't know the difference from good & appropriate to improper 'crap'.
@makerwidow ahahahaha couldn't have picked a better example!..was just crackin up at that new low the other day :)..its all about image and money, not about the passion and the love for real music from people with actual talent that can play...at least one instrument in their songs.
hay una version en español, con la misma musica exactamente, pero la letra es en español..alguien se la sabe es como de los 90's a los inicios..help...
@violetposey I'm not giving Chris Brown a pass. But hell, most of Hollyweird has stories. And if he beat Rihanna 100 times in the face, she would have been FAR worse than she was. Sound like a bit of an exaggeration to me.
The fact that she didn't press charges and the fact that she has two new songs with him says there is more to the story than we know, which FURTHER keeps me out of it. We only know what they report. I take it all with a grain of salt.
You know I heard about the passing of their drummer awhile back from aparent sucide which is truly sad who come there was no major coverage over that death but Whitney Houston gets a week of media coverage from her death??
@mhlbp1 SO WHY ARE YOU TALKING TO ME, TROLL??????? How about you take your own advice, asshat. Now, with that said, so glad you can be all tough behind a keyboard because you wouldn't DARE talk all big and bad to anyone's face.
makes me sick to have to look at that ghetto bastard woman beater chris brown next to the video due to vevo ads while trying to watch real muscians...
@zonumb Chris Brown is talented. He is one of the few current artists that can actually sing and his acting isn't bad.
And what makes him ghetto? The fact that he's black? Because I know some trailer trash bastards that beat women, thanks to Cops and 6 years of living in Alabama.
@agapereign What are you defending mate? A man who beats women? His behaviour puts him in the RUBBISH category. He is no gentleman -- far from it. Talented? Don't make me laugh. Anyone who abuses another being does not deserve admiration or praise of any kind, just the opposite: disdain and repulsion.
As I've said before, the good old times.... no sex, no money, no violence and no bad words in the music vids. Just good music and simple vids, good old times we miss you =/ Music from the past makes you teary, it's just too good =/
Great College mellow song from the mid 80's, when MTV actually played music vids 24/7...NOW, ur lucky to see 6 hours a day in the weee hours of the morning!!! WHAT has happened? REALITY TV at it's UNFINEST!!!<D
@onlytheshadowknows7 The 80s were a golden age of music & video. If VH1 had taken over video music it would have been alright. Better groups & better music could have possibly continued. I suppose it had to do with money. Never a thought to the people who bought music but just let it float down until it reached a level that it was cheap & dirty. And that's all that came: cheap & dirty.
@jrmetmoi Thanks for the info. In any case I gave up on VH1 a long time ago. After 1995 videos were over. I still believe that a well put together format targeting on music & not noise could make a decisive move on american music. Before MTV began their show there was 1 UHF tv station that tried to make it on their own with music tv. There are much more people that want to listen to the real music eras just by using that I believe a tv station would fly. I cite Ted Turner & channel 17 in Atlanta
@purplepimpernel I'm surprised people are even bothering with any of that now especially after the internet. Aside from some people's unfortunate and pitiful and meaningless little video blogs, You Tube has been healing all wounds for me.
An idiot called Erick Franchesky took the melody of this song, pseudo-arranged it in Salsa and completely changed the lyrics to his pathetic whim. One's got to hate shit like that. Now lots of people in Latinamerica doesn't know of this original, great version, and consider the Salsa mess as the true one... Horrible. D.R.
@Vibaboard Formed in Melbourne AUSTRALIA in 1985 by 2 AUSTRALIANS and a New Zealander. Produced 2 World Wide successful albums. In 1991 Another New Zealander Tim Finn joins the band, only to last one year before going back to a solo career. AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE OI OI OI
@KRW1612 for your information mate it was a NEW ZEALANDER (Neil Finn from Te Awamutu in Auckland NZ) who is the main man ably assisted by 2 great aussies musos...why do u aussies always try to claim everything?? from Pharlap to Pavolova lol KIWIs RULE!!
Nothing like some good 'ole tunes to remind you of back when times weren't so crappy in the world. The good days will hopefully return. I guess, "Don't Dream its Over". :)
I think I'm one of the few teenager's who like this song. Back from when music was good. Who would like Justin Bieber when there's REM, Oasis,.Queen, Simon and Garfunkel... and, of course, the brilliant Crowded House.
I consider this one of those great "blue-eyed soul" songs- there's very few great ones around, Whiter Shade of Pale, and maybe I'm only Human come to mind. Of course it HAS to have a real Hammond organ in the refrain, no synth can match that sound.

This song always makes me feel nostalgic, which is weird, seeing as that I was born in 1993. :P

An idiot called Erick Franchesky took the melody of this song, pseudo-arranged it in Salsa and completely changed the lyrics to his pathetic whim. One's got to hate shit like that. Now lots of people in Latinamerica doesn't know of this original, great version, and consider the Salsa mess as the true one... Horrible. D.R.

Nothing like some good 'ole tunes to remind you of back when times weren't so crappy in the world. The good days will hopefully return. I guess, "Don't Dream its Over". :)

When I was 4 years old, we had this on vinyl. It was my favorite song. :)

I think I'm one of the few teenager's who like this song. Back from when music was good. Who would like Justin Bieber when there's REM, Oasis,.Queen, Simon and Garfunkel... and, of course, the brilliant Crowded House.

Totally awesome song. I really like that instrumental intermezzo with the keyboard and later guitar(1:56-2:35).

I consider this one of those great "blue-eyed soul" songs- there's very few great ones around, Whiter Shade of Pale, and maybe I'm only Human come to mind. Of course it HAS to have a real Hammond organ in the refrain, no synth can match that sound.

@Quy4life There's still great music being made. But of course it's not mainstream, you have to search and find it :)

@sapphire91288 Used to be the other way around. The radio was full of good music and you had to search only for the bad music.
