Reminds me of the joy my friends and I had watching MTV for hours, enjoying the videos, and waiting for a new one. There was always something inventive, creative, and new. There was, that is. That's all been sapped out of it today.
The "boys of summer" is a metaphor for baseball players, the baseball season.
When he sings about the boys of summer gone, he refers to the end of baseball season, the end of summer. He is singing about his experiences of the summer during his youth, which is now gone since is is older.
definitely they don't make songs like this. They just remix them or resing them. Music is in a state of depression. its absolutely crap with exception of very few songs.
There are no musicians anymore, just a team of people to make a product.
I was born in the 90's and still this is the song I sing when summer is well underway! What I wouldnt give to have experienced the 80's music scene first hand!
I was just looking at a picture of me and my cousins from 1994. :-) Wow, that seems so long ago now......I was a little kid enjoying playing house, hide and seek, and climbing trees with my cousins at our grandma's house, and now we are all in college/ the military/ working and getting married. ^_^
im crying listening to this song reminds me of a dear freind whitney who got married and havent heard from sense last summer when we hung out before she got married. man the memories haunt me and alot of songs remind me of things
@KutscheetAmsterDam Dude. Suck a dick. Im American, 16, and I listen to this. This is classic music. You diss classics and your dissing pretty much everything that existed then and everything now because these song shaped the future. This kind of music was revolutionary. Its amazing...its classic
@KutscheetAmsterDam haha wow you really seem immature to me. i just lost all respect for you because i know my brother well. you dont. why would you even try to ruin this video? because my brother gave people advice? you should respect canada like most dutch people do because we liberated you from the nazis. i respect holland, not you.
@Litterboxer529 I agree with you there. Cept for the Nazi liberation thing. That was a lot more American and British involvement. Not saying you guys didnt at all. I definitely respect you for landing alonside us on DDay
@PoMastaCheef117 In Canada we have the Tulip Festival which is getting tulips from the Dutch government for liberating them. My grandpa helped liberate Holland, along with the British and Americans, but the Americans liberated the south, the British liberated the West and we Liberated the North and East, the rhine area.
3: he did it because he wanted to give back. im not on this video to argue, im on this video to listen to the song. i dont disrespect you, so i dont understand what i did to deserve that.
living here in los angeles the city beyond angel, wow wish this was real its been a year now when i think of my ex kathy webb all the *&*Uck she did by running out and smoking crack,,, i wish women like this one (yes i know she is an actess, she does'not smoke crack,, kathy blew47,000 roger
this song will always bring back those lost care free summers belive me i've had a few. it is right youth is wasted on the young but your only young once enjoy it , only once it comes
NICE upload, thanks. Such a great song, album, artist. This throws me waaaay back to 7th grade, MTV (when they actually played videos). The music back then was so much better too.
And @IraLive1 - 12 years old and digging classic 80's music. One word...awesome!
every time of life can be nostalgic... I remember driving home late one afternoon in autumn, when I was 21, and this song was on the car radio, and the music and the slant of the afternoon light made me aware of how much time had passed since I was 19 and first heard "boys of summer"... now I'm not nostalgic at all, lol... but this is still a great song
warm nights getting in trouble dating... irreplaceable memories. No matter what I do I just cant feel the same as I did back then Everything was so new. Wish I could go back and live just one summer when I was young over again
When anyone asks me "what is your all-time favorite song?" I always say this one.
I am a fan of music from many decades but this one holds a special place in my heart. Reminds me of teenage yrs with no responsibilities and great memories. Wish I could go back just so I could enjoy those moments even more than I did then.
Royals fans out there perhaps you can remember the days before Crown Vision when they would show that old Royals highlight film on the Jumbotron set to this music. It could be the dead of winter, I hear this song and I'm in the ballpark on a warm summer day or night. Magic!
This song makes me think of all the right and wrong choices in my life. The synths have some sort of voodo to them that they captivate you in a very tragic, yet beautiful kind of way. I picture myself driving down a long, desolate road with the windows down, the warm summer air gently running its gentle fingers through my hair. the thought of looking back in the rearview mirror muddled by the anger and pain of love lost but not forgotten. Something tragically romantic about a broken heart...
i'm so sick and tired of people saying that the ataris version is better. i grew up on the ataris version but respect the original too. it's different but good which is why its a cover damn it. original is original.
@Litterboxer529 u are so right! This music makes me an emotional wreck every time i hear it.. i don't know about you, but i am just 23 and i have had the best girlfriend (at that time) ever! ive lost her in italy.. this was our song, i wish i was back in that time. Every time i hear this song it makes me happy and sad at the same time.. epic
@Litterboxer529 - I agree with and I miss that time........ so special and so beautfiul time that was...... Those days are gone... but left so much to remember and to miss...
I'm 45 and was a senior in high school when this came out, those days are kept in my mind forever as the best days of my life. Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. Time of your life, huh kid?
The only reason this song isn't as popular as it should be is because of the many instrumental breaks. It makes it bad for karaoke compared to something like Don't Stop Believing
Hey whoisthatguy1000: Fear not. Summers keep coming and they are followed by new and exciting seasons. Life is like that too: the best is yet to come, and if you figure out who you are, so that you live in the flow, you'll never get old.
22? Dude I'm 32 about to be 33. I remember when this song first came out. Trust me, you still have plenty of youth, the key is just not wasting it.
I have a LOT of things I wish I had done and a few people I wish I had listened to at that age. Live it up man. This song hits harder if you have even the slightest regrets.
@whoisthatguy1000 Whaaaat!! Try remembering the song when it first came out! I'm hitting 40 now and still think I'm young, believe me you are still nearly a teenager! Youth lasts till you have kids!!!
"Most of my youth is gone" What, at 22? What do you consider yourself -middle aged? You ARE young, my friend! Wait until you're 42 like me, then you can look back wistfully on your younger days!
@MrWingedSerpent well said, my contemporary comrade. 45 years young here. This song rightfully made Rolling Stone's top 500 of all time list (at least they got that one correct), and Jon Bon Jovi (don't hate) will always say it's his favorite song ever...just like me.
well, I am 31 but don't fell like it - and looking younger that my 25 years old collegues:) but sometimes at 20's people dont feel as attractive and sure of themselves as at their 30's
"don't look back, you can never look back" Well, i wish that i look back a little less sometimes, because everytime it makes me realise that i'm getting old, and that sucks.
This song will forever hold special a place in my mind. It reminds me of being a suburban kid in the early summer, and I know what thats like. Spending your days down at the beach and then going home at night to the warm air. They say the summers of your teenage years are the best times of your life, so kids, live it up. Get in trouble and fall in love, then next summer do it again.
@Litterboxer529 sounds awesome. i grew up in 80s. i remember these youth years and im trying to live like a kid, seeking no problems, doing childish things like playing games, doing nothing and trying to not grow up. im nearly 30y old and music like this is the best way to keep memories of youth years. to all of you - youngsters - its nothing bad in celebrating simple life without problems of mature ppl. try to live seeking no problems and doing no problems. its best way to live your live.
@Litterboxer529 hmm feeling sentimental this evening... lol no one cares about ur advice so just leeve us boys to enjoy our selves keep ur shitty life to urself :)
@Litterboxer529 Best advice ever, you dont want to look back and say man I never did anything. Just dont get in big trouble with weapons and DUIs, go tag a wall or something innocent
i love this song and i am 14 xx :D my dad used to play this song in the car and i love it !! i dont ususally like music from before i was born but i do with this song xx :P
This song is so evocative and the video is a masterpiece. Back in the day when MTV actually played music this was in high rotation and with good reason.
This is the song I would take to a desert island. .
the guitar is especially good. my favorite guitar part is from 2:59 to 3:04, five seconds of my favorite guitarin in the whole world. I never get tired of this song, it's got everything!
I remember wen i was younger my big sister listened too thiss like 20 times a day and i was thinkin back today and i remember this song and it took me like 6 hours to think what it went like and find the song and i acc lovee itt soo much it brings back good memories :D
@thanospao13ful Yep skinboarding on clearwater beach all day head home for a BBQ some beer get laid, jump in the pool, and off to work just to do it again the next day =]
@rebelroka Heck ya!! My dad brought me up on this stuff!! And its great cause even when I was little, my friends were all britney spears and Backstreetboys and I'd be sitting there singing Heart, Eagles and all that....hahahahaha...it sucks whats happen to the music buissness these days....
@drizztlov "whats with the dudes jumping at the begining?"
It's an 80s video. Whatever you do, don't go and watch Tears For Fears' Everybody Wants To Rule The World. You may have a breakdown trying to work that one out.

@Litterboxer529 Best advice ever, you dont want to look back and say man I never did anything. Just dont get in big trouble with weapons and DUIs, go tag a wall or something innocent

I wondered this since this song came out. Does anyone know if that is Van Nuys Boulevard behind him?

@EvilDandy I thought it was Seattle, as it looks like the sky-needle thing is behind him at one point. Probably just my imagination, though.

The irony of it,a song I loved as a young man about the loss of ones youth now makes me think about my own youth,now sadly gone.

This song is so evocative and the video is a masterpiece. Back in the day when MTV actually played music this was in high rotation and with good reason.

It's an 80s video. Whatever you do, don't go and watch Tears For Fears' Everybody Wants To Rule The World. You may have a breakdown trying to work that one out.
