  • i remember this song but for me today its way to soft music kinda like pop, me i rather more like avenged seven fold, metallica, disturbed, five finger death punch, all that remains.

  • Im not just preoccupied with 1985, I live like im LIVING in 1985. :)

  • mitch allan is an amazing song writer i like the original version by sr-71

  • Nirvana were fucking awesome :) Springsteen is a legend.

  • Great song, and I love the tune...and looking at some of the comments about people saying that were 8 or 7 when this song came on, it makes me feel so old as I was 10 in the real 1985!!! But back then I wasn't into the bands/singers mentioned in this song, as I was more interested in the shenanigans of M.A.S.K., He-Man and Transformers G1, oh and the Smurfs still got a look in!!! :)

  • Marty McFly's favorite song.

  • this songs awesome dont be hating dis

  • this song takes me back and it really brings back memories

  • man this song takes me back

  • Soo I'm 14 and I know all these artists in the song. I feel awesome :D (Sorry if that doesn't make me awesome. I feel awesome anyway.)

    (And I agree that the only music made today is crap music. Just sayin'.)

  • @happyface084 you have my awesome approval :D <3

  • @happyface084

    I'm 13, and I fucking agree. Not to mention I'm female. I'm basically a walking contradiction. The music now fucking sucks ass; I'm just glad I know what real music is y'know.

  • @luvrock4eva516 lol green day references

  • @happyface084 most of it is but you have to find the right stuff like vampire weekend and phoenix and wilco and stuff

  • good song

  • I heard this song in my dad's work shop and loved it so I text-ed my self a lyric and look it up so many times! FINALLY! I have found it!

  • too bad these poseurs don't mention real 80's bands like husker du, the replacements, bad brains, x, big boys, die kruezen, minutemen, meat puppets, big black, the cramps, flesheaters, the freeze.......

  • @danodono i'm sorry if seem like an idiot but...who?

  • @danodono  yh .. but it didnt ryme XD

  • Love this version! The original is by SR-17 and it's awesome too!

  • Bowling for Soup without Phineas and Ferb involved

  • Way better than sr-17 did

  • gets better and better every time i listen to it

  • damn this is better than the version that i Did

  • On my first listens to this song, which was around a few years ago, I had no idea what the hell they were talking about/referencing to. But now I've learned. :P The 80s was an awesome decade, imo. Wish I was around for it :[

  • XxCaR3B3aRxXrawr what do u think the M stands for?

  • i luv dis song!!! :3

  • WTF SR 71 WROTE THIS SONG!

  • Ahh, I remember this song :) It brings back so many memories :D

  • I remember our school's guidance counselor singing this to our class... my school's the bomb(:

  • Check out our cover of this song on our channel!

  • this song was the shit when i was in 3rd grade! ahaha good times.

  • In ten years I'll still be preoccupied with 2000 and 5

  • music aint on mtv ---.---

  • i just jammed out to this song after lk...a million years. it felt good =) i listened to this in lk, 3rd grade and if u knew it u were cool ahahahaha

  • I remember when I was 8 in 2nd grade. This song was IT.

  • This is pretty much my childhood.

  • Like if you got the pause at 2.37 right :D

  • god i miss 85 and i miss my MTV lol RIP music videos hahahaha

  • lmao when u wre 8 lol this song is not that old so your what 12 now lol

  • There career went offa cliff and they survived the fall and landed into a deal with Disney playing songs for phineas and ferb

  • nice men! cool!

  • This song was fucking radical with my friends when we were like 10, hahaha good times :)

  • Im still preoccupied with 1985 and Im cool as hell. Last I checked so-called "artists" now are also preoccupied with the 80's considering they copy the beats and music making crappy "remixes" of 80's hits.(no Talent crap from today.)

  • @agenthelios1 I know what you mean man. I wasn't even alive in 1985, and I'm not a huge fan of 80's music (I like it though). I took it for granted when rock was the style not this synthetic music made with nothing but synthesizer and effects by people who's voices sound like crap without electronics. Today's music sucks. Screw electronic pop.

  • @agenthelios1 We did have the best music in the 80s, didn't we? There was nothing better than dancing in the clubs every weekend and listening to one great song after another...best decade of my life!

  • @agenthelios1 funny that you would comment that on a "newer song"

    

  • @agenthelios1 amen brother!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    

  • @agenthelios1 So true... Although music isn't the only thing that's being copied, how many 80's movies have been getting ripped off...? The 80's were great!!

  • @agenthelios1 hurr durr i dont like modern music cuz im old. bitch bitch bitch wah.

  • @21CenturyBreakdownX Old...LOL Im only 27. I just realize that "modern" music is trash and an imitation of 80's

  • i was born in 1986 i would have felt more classic if they said 1986 :P

  • where the lirics

  • yup thats right. gay. this is gunna be my last post on this video as i cbf with a pathetic youtube war about music. good luck trying to antagonise people to make yourself feel better. xx

  • as much as i love bfs, i think it was kinda gay of them to not even mention the origional artist of this song.

  • @tilster11 kinda "gay"? >.> wow.

  • @tilster11 Kinda gay, are you serious? This post is kinda straight!

  • O.O am i the only one with MCR in my suggestions box for this video?! xD I love MCR! I also love Bowling for soup... >.< DON'T GET ME WRONG :D <--that should've went before I also love bowling for soup, right? Made this comment awkward...yet i'd rather keep typing then just cut and paste to make it sound better... ya.. I'm gonna go now.

  • her yellow S U V is now the enemy

    

  • i love this song i cant get enough

  • i like the references to Whitesnake, Motley Crue and Van Halen...

  • SR-71's 3rd CD, Here We Go Again, will be released WORLDWIDE, Thanksgiving Day 2010 on iTunes, Rhapsody & every other digital store you can think of. A physical CD will be available @ AMAZON ON DEMAND after the release date, there will be no advance orders. This UPDATED & REMASTERED CD will contain 3 LIVE BONUS tracks PLUS the original version of "1985"...previously only available in Japan.

  • heey, if I knew more about it i would be proccupied with 1985 too,:D

  • good song that brings back good memories.

  • My friend used to like Bowling For Soup and then I was reading someone's page on FanFiction and they mentioned this song. Bored, I decided to listen to it and I really like it! It's such a catchy tune - I can see why people like it!!

  • i hate it when everyone tries to get thumbs up. thumbs up if you agree lol

  • I adore this song, and it took me a while to find it, I thought it was 1995........

    This was one of the first song I ever heard! :D

  • @phiemie

    Wait up! I'll come witcha too

  • 1983 by neon trees and 1985 by bowling for soup... both good songs :)

  • found it!

  • @AbysalFilms it's U2

  • There was no springsteen or madonna it was way after nirvana There was youtube and greenday and music not on mtv

  • my mom and my brother are all like "nuh uh, it's stacy's mom by bowling for soup" and I'm always like "OMG!! NO! THAT'S FOUNTAIN OF WAYNE! IT'S 1985, BOWLING FOR SOUP! FOR GOSH SAKES THEY'RE TWO DIFFERANT SONGS!!" hehehe, I has proof now :]

  • @thevanillabeanteam Besides that ! You can hear him say "Debbie just hit the wall" (: :D

  • finally found dis song

  • This song is actually wrong when it comes to "Way Before Nirvana"...This song was written about the year 1985 and Nirvana formed in 1987...

  • @TaylorKazarian nope, it's not wrong since Nirvana was formed in 1987.. The lyrics says, WAY before Nirvana which is the year 1985.

  • @chocomousse091 2 years for some reason doesn't seem that long.

  • @TaylorKazarian plus just because nirvana formed in 87 it didnt make them famous straight away... not unitl 1990, so theres 5 years theere, that is rather a long time

  • @danathor99 I guess you're also right. About A Girl pretty much made them famous on mainstream, but Smells Like Teen Spirit made them on top of the world.

  • this reminds me of Ben Lee - American Television

  • this was theme song when i was a sophomore in hs. ><

  • You may not believe what this song REALLY means. Find out at the blog SongSense.info. Seriously, I'm not trying to sell anything.

  • favorite....

  • 1985 was a good year because I was born that year .

  • @strangerinwhite And it's even better year because the Lakers kicked the Celtics Asses for the first time in the NBA Finals.

  • @Jiltedin2007 To me that a low point of that year because I'm a Celtics fan but it when also the 49ers beat the Dolphins.

  • @strangerinwhite You must be a Dan Marino hater.

  • @Jiltedin2007 Yes I am and I hate the dolphins too.
