Brings back so many 80's memories..bought the cassette and played it until it wouldn't play anymore..at least I found the CD several years ago..RIP Andrew Gold.."thank You for being a "musical" friend"
Al fin la encontre,lo recuerdas Momis lo que caminamos en el centro de la ciudad de Mexico para conseguir el disco,aun eran de acetato,de colores verdes. gracias por regresarme con esta cancion a los 80s. Marco
I was a young, care-free man of 24 yrs, when this song came out. I was stationed overseas, and in the Summer I bought the album with this song, I had my first real fling with a beautiful, intelligent German woman of nineteen. Oh, yes, very fond days, indeed.
Exelente tema, lo he buscado como Oro por fin, me trae fabulosos recuerdos de mi juventud, mientras hacia el servicio militar en la FAP al sur de Lima, ahi en Pucusana , escuchar es volver a vivir que maravilla y que temasa, gracias
The 1986 album that this song came off of ("Magnetic Heaven") is supposed to be getting re-released on CD on the Renaissance label on August 19th! Check amazon!
hadn't heard this track for ages till heard it on the radio today... forgot what an uplifting song it was. I love 80s music and this has to be up there!! music just seemed to be more fun then!!??
Alot of fun. WAX was one of many "duos" that came out of nowhere in the 1980's(Andrew Gold was well known anyway) such as WHAM,GO WEST, GODLY & CREAME and others...music very much of the time, great overproduced sound, catchy hook, in a way it was bubblegum music of the day. I miss those days, happy music...
I completely agree! It is great and holds up well over time. The hooks are fantastic. Perhaps it was too good for radio play. The sound reminds me a bit of Mike and the Mechanics.
Definitely, one of the very best songs of the 80s. It was not the big hit it deserved to be at that time (Unfortunately that usually happens with good music) but today it remains in the subconscious of many many people around the world.
Andrew...... Thank you very much (ToT)

When we lost Andrew Gold we lost a sense of innocence.

How a song as good as this only managed to reach number 60 in the UK is an insult, this tune is so damn brilliant
Wax = Arguably the most underrated music act of the 1980's

funny how details of a good song come back while listening to it again after a very long time down to the percussions before the refrain.

This was such a great song and didnt get the exposure it deserved. I remember being in Spain in 1987 I think it was and this was huge!!
