  • On of the absolutely best songs of all my time, in my opinion. The synthesizer sequences in this song are amazing. Every time I hear this song, it sends shivers up my spine......

  • generally hated the 80's, but there are exceptions - Eurithmics, Tears for Fears...great bass line (especially at the end) - great track!

  • 11 alienígenas não gostaram...

  • that bassline!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This version is the best. Epic bass! Four strings for freedom!

  • No Doubt covered it because it was a song they grew up with, like many of us in the same age group. I understood that, even though I prefer the original.

    - Gary

  • I didn't like this version because of him blocking everything in the background.

  • mark hollis is from my home town, Tottenham.. upmost respect.

  • Gotta have my 80s synth-pop era. It was apart of my childhood and I will always cherish it. Love Talk Talk! I liked No Doubt's cover,but nothing beats the original.

  • Wow. Very cool. I dig this extended version better.

  • I have my vinyl with this one!

  • i like watching him sing so... fellingly

  • @1MpUrO He's doing that in protest. He never wanted to lip sync to the video's. So he's being over anxious so to speak in his "singing".

  • I like both versions of this song I remember this version as a senior in H.S. back in

    in 1985, and Gwens version with my ex back in 2004. Thnx for the good memories.

  • Sou Vice City Stories para sempre!!!

  • ...the classic will never die... (rock)

  • this is the same version that was used in GTA vice city stories and propable the best version of it well done bring old good classics to life TALK TALK ROOLS!!!!

  • Essa música é linda e ao mesmo tempo triste, me deixa deprimido, GTA Vice City Stories para sempre

  • Christ, what a brilliant pop song! Talk Talk had such a magical sound. Mark Hollis' voice never sounded as awesome as it does on this track. Bless the 80's.

  • In the 80s it was my life....now its over.

  • @1983REDROCKSU2 Damn, mine, too. Hard to believe that decade is gone. I loved it in so many ways!

  • gosh, I´m excited

  • one of the best songs in the 80's. 1 of my top ten on my list. Great video w/animals, excellent beat and great bass.

  • @tamsta40 hehe u know why thier doing it its because thier running outa ideas , so they rip and copy others

    id hope to ask permission 1st before doing so :) 9 times outta ten the origianal is better , but sometimes on rare times the repreductions recording or a 2nd artist is just is good :)

  • @tamsta40/ No thats not the case. They do it for the artist, to pay respect. They get their permission to use it. And it makes the original get more noticed

  • @tonypauzz At the cost of them bodging it to all hell, driving most people away at first glance who don't wish to put time into looking for the original.

  • @tamsta40

    i agree!!!!!

  • My favorite song ever........phenomenal musicians!!!

  • What a great fucking line bass!!! Talk Talk rules.

  • @carensaldi I think you meant 'Bass Line' and not 'Line Bass'  :-)

  • @RememberToday4ever ... Well, I speak 4 languages... I don`t give a shit if I wrote wrong... in a fucking language that is not mine.

  • My Band in the 80ties.Oh my God,please Mark.......make a reunion of this wonderful Band.

    Greetz from Germany

  • Absolutely the best!!!! 

  • Oh My God

    this Video is a first class Statement

  • god this song is great but the video quality isn't the best MARK HOLLIS ROOLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • super stvar

  • hahaha make a new vid bro .. nice song though.. both versions are nice.. =)

    giraffe in ur own back yard hahahaha

  • One of the most beautiful songs of the 80's years . great talk talk

  • ADORO ESTA MUSICA!!!ANTENA 1 TOTAL!!!RSRSSSSSS

  • Thank you RememberToday4ever... I couldn't agree more with your comments. When I hear Gwens version, its like nails down a chalkboard. Write and sing your own crap Gwen... PLEASE!!!! At least I'm not the only one that dislikes her poor rendition of this classic.

  • @MrMichaels66 Can't find a video on You Tube of this song that doesn't have something negative about Gwen Stefani to say in its top-rated comments. So mundane. I was actually pleased to hear it on the radio when it I first heard it. It's only through these covers that we are reminded and appreciate the past. Plus she and No Doubt have plenty of original material, unlike many artists who live off remakes and butchered samples.

  • This song is epic greatness and is one of the hallmark tunes of all time.

  • one of the coolest tunes, ever....sounds like he's singing from a mountain top. And the synthesizers are all over the place. Love it.

  • RememberToday4ever

    well said!!! well said!!!

  • this song is brilliant, but i'm so disappointed to know that Gwen didn't make this song herself, just took it from some 80's band. in a way it's sad, but in other it's good to know that these bands on the 80's influence people today, so that it shows that those bands back in those days were much better. i SO wished i was born those days!

  • Eu cacei essa música durante muito tempo... Eu a escutava quando era criança... E até que enfim eu a encontrei!!! Grato a você, que postou o clipe!!! muito grato!!!

  • Great music as usual ..

  • bueNAAAAAAAAAAAAA

  • beautyfull :)

  • KROQ circa 78-85 nothing even comes close. Thanks to napster in 1996 I grabbed over 2000 songs from this era. Rare stuff that never gets any airplay anymore. New Order, Pretenders, Midnight Oil, The Clash, Men Without Hats, The Kingbees, The English Beat, Human League, Echo and the Bunnymen, Berlin, Reflex, The Fixx, and the list goes on and on. Something magical happens @ 00:49 in this version, something cuts deep inside me bringing me back to those carefree early 80's days......

  • @TurtleDove38 agree my fav span 1977-1982 major things going on that still influence today, early police fusing new wave and punk, the Clash, Punk which later inspired grundge 90s. the root of 80 metal started with Van Halen at its best & of course Randy Rhoads bridging a neo clasical sound that spurred the 80s metal gutiarist that was to dominate the next 10 yrs, even early rap was started then with grandmaster flash ect. Missing Persons was my fav new wave band of that time

  • @TurtleDove38 King-Love and Pride, P Lion- Happy Children, Baltimora-Tarzan Boy.......all th great obscuuuuuure hits. Not the pop shit. I LOVED this when it came out though. Talk-Talk and Depeche Mode.

  • @TurtleDove38 ....I agree....miss the 80's! Just wish we knew how good we had it back then. Carefree is right! Great music and good times!

  • Awsome band song and video. A great enviromental band. My lover and I used to dance to this in the 80s. It's awsome!

  • I feel as though i'm soaring over an ocean during sunset when i hear this song

  • they are a great 80`s band !awesome!!!

  • wasn't it no doubt that covered this? they having NOTHING on this classic!!

  • really one of the big 80s tunes!

    the synths are just ..... my tummy!

    greatings to all listerners!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • Where have I seen this video mix before? Hmmm, I know! When I remixed it! (grin)

  • ita about time mark hollis/talk talk were in the music hall of fame.

  • Awesome song and awesome band!!!! The 80's ROCK!!!

  • nice

  • grandissimi i Talk Talk

  • just a great song!!!! i miss the 80's..wish i could go back one more time

  • I love this lead singer in this video!! He is cute!!!!!!!!

  • Hello Alley21496, He does have such a sweet countenance and expression!!! So very Cute!

  • ...one of the greatest rock pop 80s bass lines ever

  • yeaah the no doubt´s version is cool but the real version of talk talk is a MASTERPIECE!!!

  • where can i find a cleaner version of this video? love the song but the video is hazy to say the least

  • simply a great song

  • crap... rated 4 instead of 5 stars,

    the long version is far more better than the short version!

  • This song,after 25 years makes my hair in my arms stiffed-up...The most hypnotic song I've ever heard in 80's sound's history!!!

  • One of my favorites of Talk Talk, it was a great hit in the 80s until today =)

  • my favorite song

  • NO DOUBT'S version was alright,but TALK TALK'S version is way better! Nuthin' beats an original version to remake!

  • My favorite part of the song is that long interlude from 4:09 until 6:12.

  • Talk Talk were Bloody great and that's all there is to it.

    Proud to be from the same place as them!

  • Mark Hollis is so cute

  • last night started i collecting some tracks for a 80s playlist! so glad i thought of this one. this sintisound within this context is almoust the best you can get i think! if there was a song representing 80 music it could be this one!

  • Hi, Does anyone know if this version is available on a CD? Or how to download this on........Thanks

  • Man i am 36 years old and i keep remembering this video. Kind of think of it. I thinking about 80's babes in the Philippines :-)

  • I like the extended version better than the original

  • Ah! that bassline: Fabulous rhythm, wow.

  • ha talk talk...trop bon !

    à écouter et ré ecouter sans lassitude aucune ...comme au premier jour !

    listen and enjoy !!!!

  • Talk Talks version is a million times better then Gwens version. To all these lazy singers today write your own songs, be more creative and stop ripping of the 70s and 80s artists

  • ITA!!!!!!IMO TRL killed music cos after that it all just went pear shaped!!

  • @RememberToday4ever Now now, let's not get petty comparing one artist to another.

  • @RememberToday4ever Amen to THAT. This is one of the best mixes of the BEST version of this song I've ever heard. 80s Synth-Pop at its VERY best. Gary Numan and John Foxx would be proud.

  • @RememberToday4ever your right 100%

  • @RememberToday4ever

    I don't mind artists that do tributes. I'd like to do them too. Sometimes it revives an old song.

  • @RememberToday4ever Completely agree....I like No Doubt, but they are no way near what Talk Talk are as musicians. These guys have been around a long time. I love all the 80's Aussie, UK bands they are and are still fantastic! And I am an American! Better artists come from Europe especially when it is 80's alternative!

  • Just listen and enjoy!!! Greetengs from Republic of Srpska.

  • ain't like that here. and there still is tons of great music with a good message in it. you just shouldn't stick to the crappy mainstream.

  • the age when bands/artists made tracks with a message, todays message is how much bling,ice and/or rocks i got they don't give a F....K bout mother earth and if the girl's in your way u go like : " Bitch get out the way " .....where we headin' to ???

  • sublime,bravo!!!!!

  • divin !!!! le plaisir de la bonne musique bien faite et savoureuse!!!sans age et pleine de superbe!!!!!que du talent!!!!!

  • Talk talk is the type of music you can listen too continuously and never get sick of. Truly AMAZING

  • indeed.... i must of heard this track bout a zillion of times and it still kix azz !!!...and so do many more 80's trax.....what a golden age it was.

  • @mulesonwheels  I agree with u.

  • @mulesonwheels yeah unfortunately the record label is blocking most of this from youtube.

  • Finally!I've found this exact version! this song rocks!!

    If anybody wants to download exactly this, look for the 12" extended version, it was only released on a CD in North America.

    Luckilius helped me a lot.

  • I cant get enough of this song!

  • i can't get enough of it too, especially the intro

  • i know...thats the best part of the song!

  • Where can I download this exact version because it's better than the original-anybody knows?

  • I got it by accident when trying to download the original, just keep trying to find different "extended" versions.

  • Thanks, I'll keep searching
