for some reason i started looking up all these old songs sure does take me back,is it just me or was it alot better back then or was it just our time. i really wish i had a time machine to take me back on the weekends lol.
It was hard to say goodbye to the 80's. It was a different world then, reality has caught up with us. Now we have to fight if we are to have that sort of freedom again.
This is the original the other version people are actually familiar with is a updated remix. Listen to the piano and the synth of both versions. You'll notice the difference. The synth isn't so good on the original. Much lower quality too.
When a song hits the immortal greatness bullseye you know it the first time you hear it. I can remember where I was when I heard this song for the first time... fabulous.
Im 15 and i listen to 80's all the time.I would like to go back in time and live in the 80's ,Everything now days seems to fast paced.And in this day and age a kid cant really live in my opinion.Music now sucks ass.80's music tellsa story unlike music now.
@JonesPatrick123 Do you think...?All the things were very expensive(nike,adidas,levi's...),the hair's fashion horrible,too much color in clothes,very difficult the girls...No,it's a joke.I'm 39 and was happy with my Amstrad or Spectrum,basket with my friends,my Honda MBX 75 and not easy girls.
I thought i was the only 15 year old who loved the 80's, i love the movies too, especially the 80's horror films, well i like all the 80's stuff more than now, so its cool to see there are others out there who are young but still like the older things
@frenchcreolebeauty I'm not offended. Though it's different, your opinion goes along with mine. I feel that in the 90's, music has lost it's artistic value, and has become more competetive.
Time being linear as it is, simply just moved forward. Human nature being what it is, simply devolved into more mediocre forms of music. And calling today's music mediocre is doing it a huge favor.
Simply: The 80's are gone BUT not forgotten....RIP 80's, we love you!
No, I understand what you're saying. I'm just lamenting the general state of the industry and actually speaking a little "tongue-in-cheek" if you will. I can't speak for anyone else but myself and this my opinion, but when I was a teen in the 80's music was fresh,INNOVATIVE, and full of subtleties and nuance. Today's music seems tawdry,nihilistic and depressing, at least to me?
I mean GAGA! What is that all about?
Sorry, not trying to offend but I can't stomach it.
1988 was one hot summer. seemed like global warming was a fact.
that was one hot summer. this song can make me almost smell the place i worked at in 1988 and visualize the place and city i lived in as it iooked like then.
i'v been looking for this song for about 10years whan i needed it then. now i find it.........lol.. i promised some one and i let that person down????
No Napolian Dynamite wasn]t a great cinematic triumph but it was a great culmination of how I and many others felt. Please availl yourself of spell-checker!
yall know that this song was around for almost 20 years before napoleon dynamite, right? this is just a great song and napoleon dynamite wasnt a very good movie, medioaker at best
Essa música é show de bola mesmo! Nem conhecia o nome do grupo (que não é tão popular como, por exemplo, o The Smiths ou Alphaville, 2 outros grupos que tem musicas que curto muito) Tinha que ser mais uma música da década de 80! E esse grupo já veio ao Brasil?
I dedicate this song to the lonely and sad of you, but remember you won't be alone and sad anymore after u listen this song,because there is someone who cares about you,and you know who I am! don't u? ..... enjoy it!!! Disfruta la cancion como si fuera la primera vez que la escuharas!!!
This is NOT a remix by the poster. I have THIS EXACT VERSION of this song on 12" vinyl!!!!! It was released by When In Rome years ago on the B side of a 12" record.
