I first listened to Zoom in 1984 when i was in a Dublin Hospital with Kidney Cancer I again listened to it in 2017 in the same Dublin Hospital Where i had Colon Cancer Today iam listening to Zoom at home Having been Giving the all Clear

A monster song. I always loved this song and I am 73

To the memory of Fat Larry James (R.I.P.) and vocalist Freddie Campbell (R.I.P.) This song will live on forever in our hearts.

My mother is 80 years old. When I went to stay with her last weekend she kept playing this song over and over. She said this song brings back such happy memories for her .

lovely song.My late wife and I danced to it at our wedding.R.I.P. Anne..xxxx

It's amazing how a song can transport you back in time

The 70’s and 80”s are a treasure trove. Real talent

one of the most underrated bands .....real music real talent

For me, this song will NEVER get old...Absolute classic!!

We are a very lucky bunch to be blessed with this music in our youth 🙏

perhaps one of the most under rated songs of the 80's, beautiful lyrics and rhythm

To the bloke who's beat cancer twice all the zoooom in the world pal ..kudos to you xx

This song is honestly one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. Makes me warm inside..

My late dad’s favourite song, whenever I hear it I take it as a sign he’s with me.❤

Absolute gold. They will never make music as good as this again.

You don't get talent like this nomore. Most beautiful song ever written in my world. I'll never get tired of this melody

I get goosebumps every time I hear this magical song. Takes me way back to my childhood. The good old days.

Look at the beautiful black music of this time compared to the black music of today. It is sad.

We bought our first house in 1983 when we were married and we had this playing on the radio when we were decorating the bedrooms. Whenever we hear this song we always think back to the good old days 👍! Lovely times the 80s !

The composer of this song must be really in love, to be able to come up with such a poetic lyrics❤❤❤ God bless ❤❤❤❤

My Dear friend Frank “Squirrel” Williams played percussion with this group. Passed 3 days ago due to complications of Covid-19. RIP Franky baby. Love ya man.

HAS TO BE ONE OF THE TOP 10 MOST BEAUTIFUL SONGS EVER WRITTEN, I CAN LISTEN TO THIS SONG ALL DAY AND SING ALONG TO IT, AND NEVER GET BORED OF LISTENING , SERIOUSLY THERE ARE NOT MANY SONGS THAT CAN DO THAT. "ZOOM" IS JUST A FANTASTIC SONG AND WELL SUNG, " RIP FAT LARRY [DRUMMER]" Who else agrees with me.? Hold on, im just going to play it again...... xx love it xx ZOOOOOOOM!!!!

I JUST WISH I COULD GO BACK TO THOSE DAYS...THEY WERE SO MUCH BETTER WITHOUT SOCIAL MEDIA!!!!.....BETTER DAYS!!!!

Ah, that was a very happy memory, listening to this again.

This was my mums favourite tune and we will be playing it at her funeral next week. RIP mum💝

I'm a metal head and 32 years old but this song hits me right the ears. Love it! Powerful chorus

This was our wedding first dance song 4 years ago. We are only 33 & 34 and remember all the older people running onto the the dance floor and our age group looking puzzled. Best first dance song ever!

Great news May God keep blessing you with good health and many golden years My husband and i heard and listened to Zoom in late 1982 It’s a massive favourite of ours Its such a classic for lots of reasons especially the lyrics We meet in 1982 we married in 1984 our beautiful daughter was born in 1987 and still listening in 2024 I too have being recently diagnosed with kidney cancer so with your inspiring story the help of God and still listening to zoom I hope it to will chase the cancer away Stay safe every one 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

My girlfriend at the time brought 2 12" mixes of this and gave 1 to me. A year later we were married and we are still together in 2020

This song will always hold a special memory for me from NY's Eve 1982. One of the best evenings of my late teens.

I'm tearing here, SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL!

This fabulous record went all the way to No 2 in the UK chart in 1982. I'm staggered to think the record never made the US charts.

This was my husband Allan and my song when we first started to go out. After 30 years of marriage I lost him to cancer nearly 3 years ago. Every time I hear Zoom it breaks my heart but also in some way makes me feel.close to him. ❤❤

Gave birth to my baby in June last year and months later my partner died in the November. He sung this song to her before that, gave him the biggest smile ever. I will forever remember that moment

Sung in the perfect key for maximum effect. The timbre of this guys voice is just brilliant. Huge in Australia, they frigging loved it down there. It was on their charts for nearly 6 months!!!

This was No.2 in the UK charts on the day I was born. One of my favourite songs.

Hell of a voice on this guy. Great song. Nothing but nothing beats the 80’s. We had it all. ❤️❤️❤️

When I was a teenager and had my whole life ahead of me and thought I knew it all. Many broken dreams and heartaches later I look back with happiness and a bit of sadness.

im 18 and love 80s music i have done since i was 11 and will never get bored of listening to these classics over and over again. no music makes me feel as happy as 80s does.

What a tune !

This track will live with me forever - pure heaven. Was played on the car cassette in the early 80s - mum dropping me off at college. Lovely memories.

This song touched my heart back in 1982, and it still touches it today, just beautiful.

Cmon people, let's just love and look after each other. Whatever colour, creed or religion, we ain't here that long. Peace and love from Paul in England.

Who’s still here in 2024

For once in my lifetime I was finally free....and you gave that to me..........I love this song.

I unashamedly love it since I heard it back then...life is short...ENJOY IT while you got it..!!!

trouble with this site is once you are on it looking for your fave music you lose track of time, good way to pass the day and bring back great memories, rock on you tube

One of the most uplifting songs ever, in love or not ❤️

My Grandson,s and I danced to this upbeat track,2024...such uplifting ...

Around the time this song was in the charts we had a teacher in school called Larry who was very fat. His nickname was Fat Larry. Thanks to this song we re-nicknamed him Zoom.

This song was big in Australia in the 80's 😂 I remember my school disco 😂 so many memories Thank you. Listening 20th August 2024 Australia

The best, brings back memories of the good old days.

I absolutely adore this wonderful song

Zoom and Golden Moments are still played on the radio in some countries in 2023.❤️ That's how good these songs are, timeless music, from a time some of us grew up.

This came out when I was a teenager, and it’s still so special to me now

Love this song. Sang and played beautifully ❤❤❤

Now this is a zoom call I could listen to all day

Takes me back to when I was 14yrs ...miss the 80s everything was new .

Ah, this beautiful song takes me back to the early 1980s. A simpler time and great childhood memories, before life started to become complicated and a grind. I expect i'm not the only one who feels that way when they hear this. RIP Fat Larry, your song makes me want to be 12 years old all over again. I remember humming this whilst walking to school.

Oh Zoom is my all time favourite song definitely. It just gives me goosepimples. The very first time I heard it I was hooked. Whenever I hear it, it just blows me away. I just adore it, always have, always will. Wonderful, simply wonderful 🤗👍💕💖

These are the days when everyone knew the lyrics to everything, and they still do. Proud to still be able to sing along to ‘rappers delight’

When you listen to their voices and how strong the melody arrives to you. You feel an incredible force with which you can go for anything

Takes me back to what seemed more simple happier days?

This was my late sister favourite song. I remember her playing it all the time when it come out. I always listen to it now in memory of my sister ❤😢

#2 single in the UK, didn't even chart in the US! Got to love this country.

Listening in 2021 this song will never get old defo the best song ever absolutely amazing who still listens to it

As a DJ I always looked forward to playing this on air! One of the best records to only get to Number 2 on the UK Top 40!

I love all the comments thus far. All about memories associated with such a simple but beautiful song wonderfully and professionally delivered. For me the memory is Lebanon 1983 and writing to my girlfriend back home. She is still my beautiful wife and we have a two year old grandson too.

I was 16 when this was out I'm 53 now and still love it.

I grew up in the 80s and this is just one of those classics that my Mum would play in the house and on the school runs. Super duper, love it.. goodness I feel so young again :) :)

reminds me of summer 1982 going to the school discos and drinking cans of beer before we got tot the disco ,when Zoom was played we'd pluck the courage up and ask girl to dance, Great days when we were young innocent teens living in a carefree No Hi Tech no Net or cell phones laptops ,we would have our ghetto blasters or a Walkman that was the hi tech and a video player , the 1980's what a decade

First time hearing this, and man, I felt my soul again.

Drummer "Fat" Larry James died Dec 1987. Singer Freddie Campbell died Jan 2013. The band folded when "Fat" Larry died. And so do the beautiful musics. Peace brothers...

Damn this is a real nice little pop song that I had forgotten about and imagine many others have forgotten this little gem from the 1980s.

1984 I was 19 years old first time listening to this Blast from the past gives me goosebumps wish I could turn back the time

I will never enough how much I love this song!

One of the best tunes ever , a real classic , still reduces me to tears after all these years .

what a tune this was, and still is...

God what a great tune the early 80s listerned to the late 70s oh how l wish l could go back!

Fell in love with this at 12 years old, after hearing it several times over the radio. But, boy, I only just really listened to the magical words; I'm 52 now. The beauty of the lyrics was right under my nose as I listened over the years; but for some reason, today it really hit.

In my sixties now.. Still love this song

New years eve 2022 and still love this 😀 ❤

Amazing how it takes you back in time...lying on a beach watching the stars...with someone special...in the moment ...no cares in the world...zooooooom wish we could be back there before social media when we were really in the moment and not looking for a phone but for a shooting star....feels like another lifetime...we are so blessed to have had this time...the kids now won’t know what they are missing...hope they’re still looking for stars in the sky and zoooom like we did....❤️🙏🐬 stay positive and keep smiling when your not wearing a mask that is 😂🤣😂🤣💙 blessings for all those still listening...❤️✨ be love....

There is just nothing more to comment in this section. All wonderful I wanted to say has been written. Super classic !!! 💯❤️💞💖💐👋🌟 Praise the Lord for the Fat Larry's Band. May their souls be singing with our Heavenly Father until Eternity. Amen. 🙏🍀❤️

Absolutely amazing. Whoever votes thumbs down clearly doesn't know what REAL music is.

I ONLY WISH THESE DAYS WOULD COME BACK, SONGS LIKE ZOOM WAS MY EARLY LIFE, SO SO WONDERFUL, NEVER FORGET, KEN IN PLYMOUTH
