Thanks for posting a WONDERFUL AWESOME video/song of Leif. He was truly a star back then and had it all going for him. AND he still does! He's still living and still ever so handsome!
I wish only the best for him. Leif if you ever read this, know that you are loved by many. Don't stop. Keeping Going... for your family, friends, we the fans but most of all for YOU! You ARE somebody and don't ever forget that. You music still lives on. You still live on. I love you! Big Hug! :) God Bless Always!
That's great the women are dressed and look like they do in this video even though it's back in the day. Compared to today, it's very sad to see women feeling like they need to look like hookers on a corner with all their make-up, Demi and Angelina skin and bones look, hardly wearing any clothes and always having to show so much cleavage. Geez!!!! Why not just go out in public NAKED! This is so refreshing to see natural beautiful women wearing clothes and very little makeup! :) Bless them! :)
poor guy..if he only knew what was coming his way years later..the dude was huge and had it all laid out and poof...blew it all..even lost his hair...now thats cruel..
I cant' imagine he would had dressed up so epic and so classic like that all thru the 80s when the 80s was allready a new era.. no more flair tshirts and pants lol.... but his dressed up like the early 70s.... while considering 1979 was allready close or allready entering 1980s.. Its not like the 80s people was yet dressed up like the 70s coz the 80s again was close to the 90s and in the 90s its nothing like old classic. In fact 90s its like todays standard clothing in 2012 really..hasnt change
@sktL92 Very interesting.. Well im facinated that if that was the case the early 80s was something like still of the late 70s in fashion clothes. But i do know that the rythem of a music beat sort of sounded more modern at some stage in 1977. Just because most famours singers had the old classic rythem like this... you know there was other songs by other bands that sounded more like electro techno sort of to speak allready in 1977... and most sounded like technology of a 1982 or 83 thing
@VOXS2 yes, a new wave of music was starting to hit in the early 80s, particularly from artists in the UK. but the sounds and styles of the late 70s were still pretty prevalent through the early 80s.
@sktL92 Tell me... do you think the way people dress today in 2012 is the same as it was the year 2000 or the 90s? try and compare and tell me the lenth between years. Course now im starting to see that the early 80s clothes where alittle classic back then.. I didnt see the so what (classic looks) when i told myself the very same this question in 1999. But today as the time goes by slowly you see why early 90s starting to look alittle like the late 80s looks.
@VOXS2 i would say that the way people dress in 2012 is definitely not the same as they did in 2000. i believe clothing has become slimmer over this period of time for both men and women. it's hard to pinpoint lengths or exact years, but it seems that the styles from the end of one decade usually carry over into the beginning of the next decade. I would say the middle part of decades is when new directions start taking shape. For example, skinny jeans became popular for guys in the mid 2000's.
@sktL92 Perhaps been said that... in 2012 we may look the way we used to dress too of the early 2000s perhaps.. Perhaps we might not see the differents yet. But wait 20 years from now and look at the year 2012 and tell me what 2012 fashion looked like... new or classic that looked something like 2000 perhaps.
@VOXS2 I believe styles of clothing are becoming less defined as time goes on. What will this past decade be remembered for? Skinny jeans perhaps. I don't know what else. The 90s are remembered for grunge and super baggy clothing. i'm glad that decade is over.
I hate to tell you all this but this song was basically stolen from an old Wicked Lester (band Gene and Paul had before Kiss) called What Happens In The Darkness. Good to see whoever wrote this song, because you KNOW it wasn't Leif, had good taste. LOL
@romeokid69 Actually this song resembles 'Grease' melodically, at least in the verses. And 'What Happens in the Darkness' sounds like it borrows from (or rips off) 'Let the Sunshine In'.
Interesting but really weird video. None of the girls look that happy to be there, ha ha, and Leif looks like he'd also rather be elsewhere as he lip syncs and fake-bops along. This is a catchy song, though. I came here to look him up because I was watching him on Celebrity Rehab and it was so sad to hear him say he's not been sober one day since he was 14. I always did think he looked like a stoner when I was a kid and never was really interested in him.
I'm the one with the blue raincoat & I think striped shirt. It was Jan 1979 but wasn't aired till 1980. Haven't heard or seen anything about Leif since.
@kharding2710 Wow. It must have brilliant meeting him back then. I've uploaded Behind the Music featuring Leif. Just look on the uploads on my channel. It seem to me that Leif disappeared, especially as I live in UK. But he did make some brief comebacks with a couple of bands, some performances and he appears on Tru Tv's World's Dumbest.
I am one of the dancers with Leif, my first claim to fame, lol! I can see nother 4 or 5 I recognise....
Filmed in the ice, stepping over cables( you can see us looking down) & the steps sloped downwards too, freezing, wore thin raincoat, did about 10 takes, had to sign contracts too. Can you spot me?
@justcruzzinn Of course I have seen him,I was just making a comment on the way he looked in the video....let's face it,unless you have lots of money,nobody ages all that gracefully.
@1dallasmetalgirl YEAH, but leif really went downhill at about only 25 years old....most 25 year olds don't look 40 at that age...but leif did..........again, drugs and alcohol....great mix for youthful looks.......
@sunshinemags It's the Albert Memorial Statue. It's gold now as opposed to bronze as it was back then and if i remember right he's stood up, not sat down. It's very impressive when you see it for real.
@eunlovesleif yeah first time ive seen it today a year after u. But that was 1979. I can't beleive his yet still dressed up like the early 70s considering it was allready like the 80s as he new it by the end of 1979.. Its not like he was to go around dress like that fashionable of the 70s in the 1980s otherwise people might lough at you. Dunno but its interesting.
Leif was my guilty pleasure ,when I was just a kid : /
