  • Hi Pannoni - Not quite getting the comparisons here -

    Have you heard any of their music by the way without the bass player

  • 84477 views with 2 dislikes. Tells you something about this band.

    Has anybody heard music from them without their bass player - does it sound any different

  • @chemille1 Quite fin, considering I found an old issue of Spin magazine from 1985 when this record was first released, stating that "Support this band and you'll have no one but yourself to blame."

  • The bass line is amazing, also the chorus

  • esto es musica de verdad y no las estupideces de ahora que todo es puro sexo drogas y perdicion

  • The dialogue bit between actor and teacher is muted here, too bad I always loved that part.

  • great

  • This was one of those memorable great underappreciated songs of the 80's. The album was awesome!!

  • This is one of my favourite songs, It brings back memoroies of the eighties and listening to this song on my tape recorder late at night !!! Seize the day !!!!!

  • fantastica !!!

  • Awesome song. The Adventures have some cult followings from where I came from, the Philippines.

  • mi manca la musica anni 80, mi mancano i miei amici degli anni 80, mi mancano i 18 anni che avevo negli anni 80... i miss 80's music, i miss my 80's friends, i miss my 18 years i had in 80's..

  • Brings back great memories ....wish we could go back in time

  • ADVENTURES ARE A GREAT BAND!

  • Mi trovavo al supermercato quando ho sentito il ritornello, e fu stato ricordo a prima nota. E mi sono ritrovata con l'iPhone per aria a memorizzare con shazam e poterlo scaricare questa stupenda canzone, e' proprio un salto nel passato.. Bellissima..

  • In Deutschland haben wir den Radiosender SWR1 (besonders für 80er-Fans) -sie spielen immer wieder Adventures-Titel- finde ich SUPER!!!

  • quanto erano bravi

  • ...love to hear this as often as possible....

  • proper music

  • pls upload HEAVEN KNOW'S WHICH WAY

  • the bakerloo line to the mean fiddler said it all; those were sparkle days

  • Brano memorabile!..erano anni che lo cercavo..non ricordavo fossero gli Adventures..brano che ho nel cuore..che mi porta indietro a momenti stupendi!

    Grazie di averla pubblicata!

  • man was habe ich diesen Song" damals" geliebt .Schwelge jetzt mal ne Weile in Erinnungen . Thanks for uploading this video camallo70

  • Da paura! grazie camallo!!!

  • bellinoo amo'

  • Always loved Icehouse and the Adventures,timeless music.Oh youth where u are gone lol

  • My favourit 80`s cut at this moment.

    My better part brought me 2 this wonderful piece of music!!!

  • I love it...big hair, no real plot and the lead singer wears Ray Bans that make him look like Tom Cruise in "Risky Business." You HAVE to love the '80s!

  • Ich habe dieses lied im Radio gehört und zeitdem Höre ich nicht mehr auf es abzuspielen!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wunderbar

    Schöne Grüsse aus FRANKREICH

  • grandissimo brano e bel video...forse tra i pezzi piu belli degli anni 80

  • @simeoncello Verissimo ma un po' tutti i loro singoli sono fra i più belli di quegli anni

  • .. turn back in time, lucky days with lots of energy and love... at least my love last..;-)

  • One of some great 80's bands who were underrated at all!!!

    I loved them from the beginning!!

    'Another silent day' is my favourite song....

  • Aaah...I can't believe I'm just finding this now!! I remember seein' this on MTV amazingly enough as a kid back in the day...really good times. thanks so much for the post. A band that didnt' make it big here in the states but is one of my alltime favorites.

  • ricordo della mia adolescenza quando, insieme alle amiche, andavo a ballare canticchiandone il ritrnello!!! Bei tempi!!!

  • Un cordiale ringraziamento Camallo per questo memorabile pezzetto che non l'ho sentito da piu di 20nt'anni..Grazie ancora per il upload!!Excellent choice!!

  • Einfach wunderbar!!!!

  • thanks for upload!

    greetings from germany!

  • they did make it big...in Europe, They're succes in the US is, thankfully limited. Thats why when I pump it out of the speakers in my Impala, people say :great song". Cool!

  • After 20 something years of waiting, I now have my hands on the cd of Theodore & Friends! How happy am I? My beloved vinyl copy can now retire after many years of faithful service. I cannot for the life of me understand why they never made it big. Couldn't figure it in the middle of the 80s, and still can't.

  • OMG I am so jealous where the heck did you get hold of one of those? Easier to find teeth on a bird! I had one back in the 80s but he got stolen with the rest of my collection in the early 90s :(

  • mamma mia quanti ricordi!!!

    thanks for post!!!!

    80th best ever!!

  • First time ihave heard this one - brilliant.Confirms what i suspected that they are one of the greatest bands EVER

  • Good news for all Adventures fans. Cherry Red is releasing their Theodore & Friends CD on July 20th. It will contain a few extended re-mixes too.

  • mille gracie! Going Back to my youth, great feeling.

  • this is a very very beautiful song and the video is also nice. every time i watch this video i have this feeling that i can't explain. CAMALLO70 many thanks for uploading this!

  • Que bonita!!

  • Nunca la había oído pero qué linda esssss

  • Thanks so much for posting this! They were my favourite band back in the 80s and I'm still in shock that they weren't huge. And why hasn't their first album been released on cd yet? I have my prized copy of Theodore & Friends on vinyl from 85 and it's a great album. A friend put it on cd for me a while ago but 3million plays of the original as a teenager on a dodgy record player has affected the clarity! Oh the cruelty of life.

  • ..the real sound of the 80th- I like them all...

  • I'm named after Terry Sharpe, my Da goes for a run with him every week and has gigged with The Adventures with Pat and all!

  • Got this on 12inch vinyl,best way to download to cd is to connect a turntable with a usb connection.

  • Double Shot New Wave by K-Tel (yes, that K-Tel) still floats around on Amazon, etc. It's the only source I've found that has this version (the one off the US vinyl release) on a CD. Too cool for like 5 bucks. Easily worth 500 times that much.

  • is it possible to down load or copy to cd or mp3 ? i've got the singles, 12 inch singles and album but no way of playing them in the car, van etc. thanx. brings back memories of some great gigs!

  • rhydygro, I can e-mail you the whole CD if you're interested. Just shoot me a privatemessage.

  • Does anyone have the instrumental version of this song?

  • terry sharpe, wicked cool with the raybans! love this song!

  • aw i just remembered this song and video not heard it for donkeys years great!!! thanks for posting

  • they supported tears for fears back in the eighties me and my mate had tickets for both nites @the bham odeon the second nite we only went back to se the adventures again they were awsome live

  • What a great bunch of lads. Used to play soccer with Terry Sharp Pat Gribben and Gerry"Spud" Murphy in Nth London at the back end og the 80's.

  • didnt they play for harringey united or something? i used to love them, still do

  • Nah it was just a pub team called he Bricklayers Arms. The pub was/is in Tottenham High Road not far from the Spurs ground (Tottenham Hotspurs FC).

    All the boys were midfielders although Spud also put some time in the defence with me. Terry was "seeing" Sarah Dallin from Bananarama at the time and it caused uproar whe she turned up one Sunday morning!!!!!

  • Thanks for posting. I had not heard this little gem of a song since the 1980s. Classy song by a very underrated band

  • gracias por colocarlo en la red, crei nunca poder volver escuchar este gran tema de los

    80s. Saludos de Lima Peru

  • gracias por colocar este gran video, una joya de los 80s

  • Those looking for the full lp, just google 80zforever torrents! this and some other ultra rare 80s obscure bands are posted there! God bless the internet!

  • Wow what a trip down memory lane, so loved The Adventures and this song. Had all their albums back then.

  • Fucking hell - Remember this song in the charts - Fucking Exellent!!!!!!!

    THANKS FOR POSTING!!!!!

  • did'nt do much in uk

  • la prima volta che la sentii (ospiti a Superflash, da Mike Bongiorno!!!!) avevo 12 anni...indimenticabile la canzone e i ricordi, soprattutto con il successivo LP che conteneva "Broken Land" e "Drowning in the sea of love"

  • Una canzone stupenda!Grazie per averla messa!!

  • I remember when this video was first aired on MTV. I bought the album. I would love to own it again. I can't say enough about it.

    Great tune and good feelings that come from it.

  • What a classic video, always loved it, and the song's awesome of course!

  • wow! many people defines the 80's as silly superficial years dominated by image and plastic music....but these kinds of songs destroy those stupid ideas with a melody that melts your heart and leaves you in love with the world hahaha GREAT ADVENTURES COME BACK!!!!

  • tks God i lived my best teenage years in '80's, such joyful songs, sometime stupid, but joyful so MUCH!they left me some kind of peter pan syndrome!i don't want to grow old ...and i could never forget them!

  • Comment removed

  • Questa musica è TANTA ROBA! :) Mi ricordo quando ero piccolo e la canticchiavo ehehe bei ricordi davvero! Molto bella come canzone!

  • ......quanti ricordi!!! Mi riporta ai miei 15 anni e alla dolcezza di quei giorni!!

  • si capisco..ricordi bellissimi anche per me..che nostalgia!!!!

  • vero! io invece all'epoca avevo 14 anni!

  • ...Allora puoi capire quante emozioni ci riporta alla mente sentire questa canzone!!

  • Direi proprio di sì! Le prime cotte...etc etc ;-)

  • grandissimo pezzo

  • one of my all time faves.

    If you are almost 39 like me...you remember this tune!

  • Well, 38 and a couple of months still cuts it, no!? But you are right, it's one of the eighties songs that stuck most in my mind - and there were a LOT of good ones....  :D

  • anyone know what this group or singer are doing now... loved them and this song

    plus didnt this have a longer video with him talking to some kind of doctor if i remember right

  • In the original video, his acting teacher is frustrated with his poor reading of his lines for the play "Shadow of a gunman" (you see him in this video). The lines are about a guy whose girlfriend has left him for another man. He recites them with no feeling, no emotion. At the end of the video, after got the "Dear John" letter, he reads those lines again: this time with a lot of feeling and emotion because he has just been dumped, and he is hurting. His teacher is very pleased now.

  • I saw this band open up for Tears for Fears (1985?) "Songs From The Big Chair" tour at Carnegie Hall? NYC.... Sorry for the fuzzy memory - Anyway, they were terrific and the crowd loved 'em. I still have their 1st (and only?) LP vinyl.

  • Previous comments said it all: Awesome song, thanks for bringing it back, missed it since it was deleted, it takes me back, and this song will always sound great. I'll never understand, either, why a great song like this didn't go anywhere. If you saw the original video, you hear his acting teacher voice his frustration with his poor reading of his lines for the play: he shows no feeling, no emotion. Once he gets the "Dear John" letter, he sure reads his lines with passion and emotion.

  • Awesome song! Brings me back! For the life of me, I will never understand why some songs (like this one) barely make a ripple on the music charts and other songs that are total garbage are/were all the rage. Thanks for posting this song!

  • Brilliant! awesome! amazing!

  • Thanks a ton for bringing this back. Missed it since it was deleted.

  • Certain songs will always sound great... this is one of them.

  • Thanks for this fine gem! Takes me way back!
