My sister came to me one day 20+ years ago and said you have to hear this! We lost her last year, now anytime I hear this song, it helps me remember the good times. R.I.P Tara, we love and miss you dearly.
Exactly ! Discovered on a such "free" radio in 1983. Note that this performance is very closed of the (first) album version (not the extended one, of course)
The irony is I finished high school in 1984 and I thought this album was the one of the sexiest things I’ve ever heard. I bought the entire album just for this song. Here almost 40 years later I’ve seen it played live for the first time.
Ann Dudley is a musical genius .She has done all the string arrangements for pretty much everyone . One of my favourite songs ever Viva Forever by the Spice Girls has her finger prints all over it . The string arrangements on Viva Forever sound like heaven.
I am still on a journey…. Moments in love had such an effect on me as a young kid in Belgium, the feeling of spreading my wings out, opening my eyes to this wide new world, knowing there were other things I wanted to explore… this is still a song that fills me with emotion and wonder… thanks so much to this amazingly talented group of musicians that were involved with so many artists and songs… moments in love forever…
I remember the first time I Heard this song back in 2005 on my daughter's cd it's a beautiful song I was pregnant but lost my Baby but I had a rainbow baby in 2010 and when I heard this song on the cd I just knew the baby from 2005 was a Angel...
I discovered this song on the radio as my wife went into labor with our 3rd child at around 2am on a weekday and we drove to the hospital…one of those songs that stays with you forever that’s for sure.
During the 1980s, I was in my teenage years and early 20s. God I miss those days. I also miss many of the people I knew at the time. I also wish music these days could 'engage' me as much as that era did. Beautiful. I always see/hear/feel this song as a soundtrack to a movie that's playing in slow-motion.
This is sincerely my favorite song of all time. And then when I found out it was released in the year I was born in after I fell in love with it, just made it all the more special.
please listen to this variation : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PSAVVGU3Dqc.html, a remix made my AoN themselves (called Piano mix) .. Their best version IMO ;)
Introduced to AoN in 1984 and instantly became a fanatic. Thank you for the music Art of Noise put out to the world. Moments in Love has to be my all time favorite of slow romantic songs. You folks truly are artists with a gift.
Into Battle was such a complete piece of electronic music architecture when it was released, people thought I was mad listening to it when it came out.
"they were the turning point in electronic music..Kraftwerk was busy with their Computer World tour so they was no new material from them and Art of Noise was a breath of fresh air musically ✌"
My uncle introduced me to the art of noise back in the early 80’s and the first song I heard was their beat box jam. However, he’d play this song all day ever day ad nauseam, then I just grew to absolutely love it! I’m in my 40’s now and I’d definitely say it greatly defined the soundtrack of my young life. It’s on my daily work music play list. Thax for making me remember great memories by making such an impactful and timeless song.
My friend in high school put me down on Art of noise circa 1986. Close to the edit was it for me but moments in love is still my fav. The beaten version is immaculate.
Saw The Art of Noise at the first Coachella play on a flatbed trailer in 1999. Underworld played same stage 2 bands later. Chemical Brothers played the main stage after Perry and Morrissey sets. Good times...
Been a big fan of TAON since they started. I was a night club DJ in the late 70 and early 80s and played In to battle. Back then we had a slow spot and I played this more than once.... One of my favourite tunes from them is their version of the Robinson Crusoe theme tune.
Amazing!!! Absolutely amazing!!! After all these years that song Still hits hard and good... I always use it to relax my time and also use it as a form of quiet storm slow jamming music... Especially if I'm depressed or just want to go to sleep,let alone take a nap...
