  • does heaven wait all heavenly over the next horizon?

  • nessuno può immaginare che serntimenti mi fa provare questo pezzo........non solo ricordi......

  • so cooool : )

  • WHO needs a girl, I want a Delorean Car that can take me back to the 80's

  • Comment removed

  • Brilliant song

  • Dirk Kuyt LFC 0:26

  • God was this 1988? Thank God for Acid House then!

  • Wayne2020z there were some trashy songs in the 80's but this is not one of them. This a pastiche on Bruce Springsteen's image of USA. But apparently even Bruce liked this song.  There is more than to life than Cars and Girls.

  • Genius

    I think Paddy is a way cleverer, nicer smarter lyrically and melodically than Morrisey or the pet shop boys so why doesn't he get the credit he deserves?

  • I'm glad i grew up in the 70s, 80s , 90s, 00s, 10s, all good.....still feel the same. PASSION all ways last.

  • Oh how I miss the 80's life was easier I am so glad I grew up in that decade.

  • Another perfect pop song from one of Britain's finest ever groups.

  • one of the most wonderful songs I've ever heard in my life....

  • Looks like someone was so excited...they've hit the dislike icon instead!!!

  • I'll never have enough of Paddy's music. As I'll never stop saying he's an absolute genius. Absolutely under-rated as well, but... who cares??? As usual, the very best is for the few.

  • Great song don't get me wrong. But I think he creamed in his pants at 4:18 o_o

  • I love their normal looks and features!! they'd be chased these days for not being sexy enough!! but the songs!! they were great! music is all that matters!

  • Martin, the bassist was my lecturer in Necastle many moons ago....complete mentalist but brillint guy

  • @MarKnowsBest Dirk Kuyt was your lecturer? :o

  • Never been a Springsteen fan and this amazing song will never make me like him.

  • Love the way he screams, both in this song and Goodbye Lucille (Johnny Johnny).

  • I would marry the girl in this band.

  • @paulmac321

    I would marry the singer of this band :)

  • @alternatereality85 Yep, it is indeed a poke at New Jersey's finest. I love Springsteen, but that doesn't diminish this song for me. One critic said said The Boss's 1980 LP 'The River' had more cars than the Indy 500.

  • I've always loved this song, and through a major family breakdown over the past few years I've come to love it a lot more. Is the Brucie reference to Springsteen though? Shame if so, Paddy could have found someone far better to have a sideswipe at if thats the case. Anyway still love the song!

  • Since when was alladin in a band?

  • I LOVE PREFAB SPROUT

  • One of the most under rated bands ever, simply awesome. from langley park to memphis is a true classic in my eyes and ears!

  • @ukgooner100 Steve McQueen is arguebly better.

  • quality....total quality

  • Paddy sure had a few great songs inside him - this is one of them!

  • Great song from a great group. One of my favorites.

  • now that's what I call a waistcoat!!!!!

  • Is it just me, or does this song send other 80s teenagers straight back to those days?

  • I just didnt expect the group to look like this! I used to love this song when i was 17 and couldnt imagine anything hurting more than cars and girls!

  • yes i remember fantastic very good music

  • Wow I'm the same age as Paddy McAloon but only just discovering the Sprouts really (although I seem to remember liking one of their songs in the 80's possibly King of rock n roll). I'm loving the journey, the music just grabs my emotions in so many ways; Don't Sing, Hey Manhattan, Appetite, The Sound of Crying, Scarlet Nights,When Love Breaks Down, I could go on but suffice to say I have ordered every single Sprout album on Amazon, I have never done that before. The Sprouts are a phenomenon.

  • bravi davvero !! canta con il cuore , e nn è poco , la loro musica è un sogno !! grandi ....

  • hey the videos now have more definition! Better quality!

    Love the sPROUTS!

  • disco fantastico ragazzi !!! Quanti ricordi e quanti sogni !

  • Yep...I'm in too. Hate to admit it cos it probably makes me sound like a right old duffer, but there do seem to be a lot more "products" rather than musicians around at the moment.

  • great group..this song and infact all there songs are ace..

  • Heard this in a restaurant tonight, had to come back and find it out! Great song!

  • This is REAL music. I despise most of todays 'pop' music. The currant state of the charts in the UK sickens me beyond contempt. This band is a fitting tribute to an age that will be looked back on as the greatest time in the history of music. I PRAY these times will come back for the sake of any real music fan.

  • @trappedinlife29 - I totally agree mate - there is a lot of crap around now - I listened to the chart a few weeks ago - blimey it was rubbish. Put one my old cd's on instead & dreamed of my old tape player :o)

  • @trappedinlife29. Totally agree!!! todays chart music is unbelievably poor, manufactured drivel, churned out with no heart, soul or depth to it?! 99% of it is now made for and bought by 10-14 year olds who are yet to discover the far wider world of music. I've always seen chart music like the crust of the earth. Underneath is a whole world of music!! :D Thank god for record shops and the net!!

  • @trappedinlife29 yes your right i used to love this music when going out and emptying my spunk balls over a beautifull girl those were the days GREAT

  • This is as fresh now as it was all 22 years ago, great band, great song.. Wendy Smith was some hottie, I had a major thing for her when I was about 12 lol.

  • By that time Bruce and these guys were at the same Record Company and there were a few sparks.

  • what sparks? Springsteen was always on Columbia

  • He hasn't got a clue critisizing Springsteen thinking cars and girls was all he wrote about

  • lol

  • brilliant song
