it may appears unreal but about 14 or 15 yrs ago i was to the horse race and there was a horse named the barricade and just bout 10 minutes before the race begun they put this song and i play the horse with odds 99/1 and it won that day . :)))
... and damn, I miss the Eighties discos! On those drizzly foggy Friday and Saturday nights in Ireland, dressing up in my best duds for those nights - winklepicker buckled shoes or brogues with white socks, Mods longcoat or Cafr Racer leather jacket, slicked hair. Those were the days!
I listened to this and more Great Eighties when I was a teen then. The music from then is better than today, and that's not being biased. It just is. It was artful labour, it took effort, and the result, like this soundtrack, speaks for itself.
I find this the most beautiful song ever, with the great voice of Tony Hadley and pure music sounds. I've seen them at work in Brussels some years ago. His voice is as perfect in real as on these albums. Impressive.
Why cant more music be this beautiful? I feel ashamed for being born into such a foul generation that listens to garbage. This song brought tears to my eyes and also became my new favorite. Such talent, such a beautiful voice, plus the singer himself is rather handsome
Reminds me of my very youth during the so called "yap" age. I was indeed part of it in advertising as a young art director. A money money age. Party and work around the clock. This beautiful song bring me back to my best and finest memories of the time. It´s almost royal. So different from Wham, DuranDuran and the likes. Spandau was something different, they had a style of their own. I also had a soft spot for The Stranglers "Golden Brown" Hot, sensual beat. Two different styles. Love them both!
Thank you for the better sounding version. The other one is "re-mastered"... it only means it sounds worse than the original. Destroyed dynamics... People are out of their minds with this loudness wars. Cheers!

saw these Guys at the O2 the other night and cant believe tht due to Tony's soft souful way he sang this song it made me cry......it was so beautiful.....the whole concert was amazing.........blew me totally away...........made me feel I was back in the 80s....n shhhhhh dnt tell my hubby but Ive fallen in LOVE with Martin Kemp AGAIN.......he was so georgous....n..soo buff..... the t-shirt I bought is now my night shirt so the guys come to bed with me every night...
@4ever80s did you mean the message behind the music? :) fuck, my new year's resolution was to stop being an internet pedant.. i guess i already blew it
Va a ser el primer comentario en español. de las mejores baladas de la historia para la mejor decada de la musica años 80 sugiero a los jovenes que escuchen musica de los años 80 descubriran un universo de sensaciones
Everytime i listen to this song it makes me cry the lyrics are very emotional just cant helped it its really a very beautiful song such emotional it really make you cry.
This song will live forever and carry it in my heart and mind until i grow old. Long live the 80's.
