  • Alphaville has to be one of the best bands to come from the 80's. I agree, Marian Gold has an amazing voice. I listen to this music and it takes me back and I forget about all the bullshit in life. I'm always trying to get my kids to listen to this. Todays music just blows!!!!

  • This song is ALIVE!!!

    Marian Gold...best male vocalist EVER!!!

  • Beautiful music from a much simpler time. I'm setting my time machine for 1982!

  • @chestnut2333

    is that a napoleon dynamyte reference? because this song came out in 1989.

  • Superbe chanson d'Alphaville, je l'écoute en boucle plusieurs fois par jour. Un des meilleurs albums du groupe.

  • egyik nagy kedvenc zenekarom...még '84-ben ismertem meg Őket Lengyelországban...Matyó

  • @dieradical This is Noah Taylor

  • piekne!!! szkoda ze niemieckie

  • Too bad you can't smoke inside bars and cafe's anymore, I mean not just anywhere only designated small rooms. That sucks. Back then everything was better, smokes were so much cheaper too.

  • Back in 1998 was Alphaville my favourite band for a long time. I really loved the songs Romeo and Jerusalem and i still do.

  • Prog-pop at its best - what a great band, great song, great post! Thanxmuch!

  • NO ME CANSO DE OIR ESTA CANCION....ALGO TIENE

    MAGIA, MELODÍA HERMOSA QUE ME REMONTA A LOS OCHENTA...EPOCA HERMOSA Y PARA MI LA MEJOR...SALUDOS GENERACION

  • total de acuerdo

  • Ein weiter mega kracher von alphaville Romeos . Einfach einzigartig gut was die Jungs so machen . Freue mich wie verrückt auf´s neue Album 2010.

  • god, how i miss germany.....

  • Hi ScaryManiac, thanks for the advice, will definately purchase the c.d.'s on your recommendation. Thanks for the tip and will let you know whether I think their good. Of course they will be. Thanks .

  • Para mi y unos cuantos de la generacion de los 80 seria un sueño tener a Alphaville en un concierto en Chile ahora que han traido tantas bandas ¿Porque Alphaville No?Quien vota por esta propuesta? I love you Alphaville

  • es el de Vanilla Sky!!!!

  • Have only just discovered this song, having originally bought the Forever Young c.d. in 1993 in Germany which was brilliant I never knew that this song existed. Got to say since finding this on Youtube I just haven't stopped playing it. BRILLIANT.

  • @taffykev you should listen to their 2nd and 3rd album. are awesome, too. I havent heard the other ones yet

  • why do people argue on here, like its real life. just enjoy the music!!!

  • Isn't the teenager the same actor who plays the father in Tim Burton's Charley Choc Factory?

  • @Specswx Exactly..Noah Taylor

  • @Specswx Yeah, Noah Taylor.

  • " Forever Young " is unbeatable of all from theirs , but the one song is really stunning. This one came out later ...i guess in the late 80's .

  • @123xxrobertx This song came out in 1989 on the Breathtaking Blue album - great album altogether.

  • The fat dude entering the tram looks nothing like Phil Collins.

  • LOVE IT!........ superb group and one of my fave tracks.....

  • Che arthur, no es el que actúa en Vanilla Sky???

  • immer noch so geil wie früher......gruß aus Ratingen

  • I usually listen to heavy music, but I absolutely love Alphaville and this song is one of my favourites. It's a great example that pop music doesn't need to be simple and can have some deeper thought in it. The lyrics are also very good.

  • His called Noah Taylor, who is an actor.

  • who is this boy ? he also interacts with phil collins in the tram

  • Alphaville kommer aldrig dö ut :)

  • @swedishbeer Finns ingen anledning att skriva det på Svenska

  • @swedishbeer Aldrig någonsin! Och här ser man även en ung Noah Taylor :D

  • joar kommt mir bekannt vor, denn manchmal fühle ich mich auch so. . .

  • I remember listening to this one... not sure if as good as the previous album. It started to build and become some real classics to me.. just hear about a romeo is enought to make one remember- forever

  • Com certeza essa banda fez a diferença no passado...e ate hoje....

  • Si te pones a analizar, las escenas están rodadas sin actores. Todos improvisan en la calle. Hay gente que ni saben que la están grabando. Salvo el chico claro; que de mayor imitó a Hitler en una peli.

  • i love world before computer comes only waste of time

  • Everything was pretty evident about the message to me except he last part...what the heck? Dod he wanna buy the lobster from the restaurant? AHAHAhh, great actor at the ackwardness of adolecence but dorky too. Thanks for the post

  • Did you notice how he smoked that cigarette. If I did what he did I would have puked. He straight sucked that smoke back to his melon

  • Yeah I noticed he did that well, and other things he did so well, great actor, may well be a miniature man ;) that just looks like a kid, like...Michael J.F

  • que buena rola mis respetos para estos señores

  • AMAZING song! I'm also truly enchanted by the way this shy boy (Noah Taylor) walks, smiles, looks at people, ... Like Silvinho, the Brazilian commentator below, eu tampouco me canso de assistir este CLIP. ;-) Regards from Barcelona. Mino.

  • Muito prazer meu nome é Silvio. É sempre bom saber que está banda tem fãs e toda parte do mundo..... (Noah Taylor representou muito bom este papel)

    Um grande abraço....

  • Não me canso de assistir este CLIP

    Um grande abraço a todos os fãs desta

    maravilhosa banda....

    Silvinho - BRASIL

  • can anyone tell me what the message of the song is about? :-) thanks in advance.

  • OLá muito prazer, na minha opinião quer dizer: Que muitos adolescentes querem viver no mundo dos adultos, mas cada um na sua vez e no seu devido tempo.

    Um grande abraço

  • Completamente de acuerdo con vos , ese es el topico de esta cancion...creo que mucho nos vemos reflejados aqui...un abrazo

  • absolutly rare and the song is great

  • The guy featured in it is Noah Taylor, who is an Australian actor

  • it doesnt sound like the alphaville i know but i love it!! ;)

  • I really like this song!

  • And "voraceous" is spelled, "voracious"

  • Thanks, I love pasta, and I'm very skinny.

  • OLá FÃS do Alphaville, adoro todas as musicas... em especial está........Um grande abraço!!!!!!!!!!

  • Adorooo!!

  • i wish i had his hair. 21 and balding...sucks.

  • "If it ain't Dutch, it ain't much."

    --kiss my American ass!

  • If you ever said that to my face you'd be in the hospital.

  • If i ever said that to ur ugly pussy face i'd be fucking cracking up laughing.

  • Pal, you'd be laughing without any teeth. And you owe lauraexurge an apology.

  • i m sure you look great better than him

    hair no usefull at all

    you re the best.............

  • fuck italy whore.

  • thanks. Italians are the best looking people. Lucky for me I have ancestors from Italy.

  • This will be my last post to you. You are extremely ethnocentric, and homophobic, and you obviously have no respect for women. You are vile. Goodbye. :)

  • @nocjosh

    Who?

  • put up the fucking vid

  • i like the video!! :)

  • Alphaville had their time. Watched them live in late 90's and it was a major disappointment. Besides having poor technical equipment they mainly played new songs and those were very far from the standard of the 80's music.

    But this surely is one of their absolutely best songs and I like it a lot. Very underrated song.

  • totaly agree with you!

  • I think many of their today's band would be proud if they could play such as good music like Alphaville performed even after 1990.

    They would be more famous if the stupid radio stations played more of their recent songs too, not only the first three megahits from the Forever Young album.

    They 're not an one record band as 98% of the people believe it.

  • is that solo made by syhts????? AWESOM!!!

  • WHO IS THE KID IN THIS

  • I know if you read back all the comments someone did know. I remember reading it but am too lazy to go back now :p

  • Noah Taylor

  • This song totally rocks!!! I actually have the album yet I can't bloody find it. The lead vocalist kind of looks like the late Freddie Mercury of Queen.

  • this video

  • this is seriously my life

  • great song...

  • great

  • Great band. Up there with Depechemode.

  • My favorite Alphaville song ever!

    Great song and beautiful song.the first time I heard it, it was in Vancouver Canada more than 20 years a go. I still love this music.

    Wunderbar Alphaville!

  • Are you referring to the time they appeared at the PNE?

  • I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!! Great band!

  • Alphaville must return to the top of the hit lists.This the real good music!

  • Doubt that will happen, but they are one of those bands who people may forget about, but some of their songs will have left their mark (Forever Young is an example). People won't remember the band, but they'll know the song.

  • Mmmmm, Noah Taylor...

  • OMG!!!!!!!

  • one of the greatest band ever...One of the biggest voice ever..

  • shut up you worthless nigger animal

  • Great song, makes me feel young and naive again :)

  • It is one of Alphavilles finest hours, it is an underrated masterpiece.

  • they made short movie in australia. ITS NOT A MUSIC VIDEO!!!!

  • Actually they Made a movie Alphaville asked Directors to just make videos to there songs each song A different Director from all nations for the album "The Breath Taking Blue"which is just amazing... the movie comprised of these videos is called "songlines" which can be bought Via bootleg or Download.....

  • wow, this band is really good. Has a lot of melodic streght, its earning my respect.

  • super song super clip super band

  • where can i get the song?

  • this song was from the record "So Red The Rose.

  • I don't see what the problem is with this video, it captures the essence of the song very well. What else could they have done?

  • this band is rock...even their glory days was way before my time...but their music really influence my life

  • The best band ever, Alphaville! Thank you for posting.

  • Great song, AMAZING VOICE... Gold's voice bring me away from the reality...

  • Super Song , Super Band. Hab das Video das erste mal gesehen, den Song kannte ich schon laenger. Ich frage mich was hat sich Alphaville bei dem Video gedacht? ...geht gar nicht. Und das bei ihrem letzten richtigen Charterfolg. Kein Wunder das hier manche posten das , das ein Gay Video sei... aber wie gesagt der Song ist klasse !!

  • Although I never will be a big fan of this video,I accept it,because Alphaville is my favorite group.The song is superp,like the others from Breathtaking Blue,sorry that I haven't this album at home.Best band ever!

  • my m8 has been 2 the place where this was filmed it's in australia

  • fantastic song,terrible video

  • Def one of Alphaville's most best ever tracks. It has such presence and atmosphere, and makes best use of Gold's outstanding vocal talent. A true classic!!

  • I thik that is one of their best songs,Marian have fantastic woice:)

  • alphaville es una de esas banda que creo su propio estilo en medio de los 80's y por eso y sus grandiosas canciones como big in japan, forever young,jet set,,, ect merece que sea fanatico de su musica

    Love you Alphaville.

  • to laurent- wow- u r good... he looked familiar, and it does seem like the actor from shine.. he did a very good job there..

  • The actor in the video is Noah Taylor. He is well-known in Australia but not so much overseas. His breakthrough film in Australia was 'The Year My Voice Broke', which is about the time this video was made. The video is shot in Melbourne, Australia. I recognise the streets. He is riding in a tram at some stage. Noah Taylor was also in 'Shine', which won Australian actor Geoffrey Rush an Academy Award, even though Noah Taylor played the lead role in half of the film as a younger version of Rush.

  • thank you

  • love it! :) nice video

  • Damit! that was suposed to be a replay to u patryk, anyways...

    LOVE this song, since the first time i heard it i was amazed and still i am everytime i listen the song, so strong lyrics and powerfull tunes

  • People do exist outside of the US and UK ;) And they have the internet too

    Yo tengo una foto de tu madre fornicando con un DOG

  • que te den por el culo puto obeso americano de los cojones

  • que te den por el culo puto obeso americano de los cojones

  • Muy bueno!

  • Älskar det här bandet sedan barnsben. Den här låten är en av deras bättre. Jag kan lyssna mig döv på dom. Synthpop och 80-tals musik regerar

  • creo q es una banda llena de misterios y todo lo hacen con muchos detalles simplemente unicos!!

  • mmm que extraña y "fuerte" la escena de los lentes oscuros... tal vez me equivoque.

    BTW Muy buena cancion! 5->stars

  • Me encanta la voz de Marian Gold!

  • El tiempo no regressa más pero ahora tienemos uno pedaço del mejor de nostras juventud. Bueno!

  • este video es rarisimo,aqui sale noah taylor ,yo he visto en la tele un video casi igual pero con el tema big in japan y salen otras imagenes que aqui no salen y viceversa,por eso es raro ver esto.

  • Es una cancion hermosisima , el video esta raron pero igual esta xevere I DALE U

  • Buenisima cancion para escuchar en el auto a todo volumen!!!!

  • so right!

  • Love it !!! amazing song , just great ...

  • Me encanta!!!!!!!!!

  • Very Good Alphaville style song and video is

    really strucked you well at the heart..

    Remember when you like that..Young and naive

  • Nice, I had no idea they did any videos for that album.

  • This video is about a lonely person who tires to find a date

    but just can't perhaps due to his luck or social inability.

    The groups suggests that the world is a divided place or perhaps an unfair place, such as the person in the video.
