Was 15 years old (almost 16) when this song came out. It still tugs at my heartstrings...I'm 43 years old now (Almost 44). The amazing memories of just being...ALIVE and feeling invincible are more than enough to make my heart drop...YET make me smile at the same time. THINK that's called "Bittersweet"
@@diannegreenshields7421 Yes, _Invincible_ is simply incredible. But I also love _HIStory_ , _Blood on the Dance Floor_ , _Dangerous_ and _Bad_ . :) Oh yeah , and _The Ultimate Collection_ , _Michael_ and _Xscape_ . They all rule! :)
damn, i'm 44 years old now and this still has my bouncing as i type. AAAH those days standing in a field watching the sunrise or moving together to the music in an old abandoned warehouse somewhere, Awesome times.
Delivering tonight in Middlesbrough town centre. Just pulled up at lights with Forever Young blaring in car. The amount of people outside pub trying to get me to pull over and turn this up was unreal. And EVERYONE knew the words. Absolute legend. June 8th 2021
Love this song ever since I bought the CD in Our Price on the first week of release, used to blast it out big time. Ashamed to say at 49 years old, it still brings tears to my eyes. Almost feel I want this playing at my funeral lol.
Does anyone own a copy of VIBES N LIVLEE from pleasurdome 96.?. Absolutely banging tape, mc storm is on it aswell.. The 1st time I heard rush hour on 2 15" subs in a cav lxi.!. Can't find it anywhere....
This tune always reminds me of my friend Daniel Hearne, Brilliant Father loving husband and a great friend, unfortunately he passed away in May last year because of covid at 39 years of age . We used to listen to this and the red Jerry mix when cycling too the beach with the stereo sticky tapped to the handlebars of the bike 🚲 LoL 😂, And we would all dance and have a party on the beach ( alcohol was thrown in and dubbies) But would cycle home again with this and 90’s dance tunes blasting away, just in time before our parents cracked up . R.I.P Danny we will always have these memories
"This is the official RU-vid Channel of the german techno project INTERACTIVE" Nice, I'll use this then to thank you mr Lissat and Zenker for this fantastic song (every you made btw) that I played over and over and over and over... a million times! Forever Young!
even now staring down the double barrel of the BIG 50 (sept2021) ,still love dancing to this , never mind having a spin back ,Dropping Alphaville and mixing the Cocteau Twins remix of this TUNE in (FUBAR/central Scotland posse in the house )
This song has had a special place in my heart since March 1st 1997 (although it could have been February 28 1998 - it's a long time ago!!). My partner and I were standing in a huge crowd on Elizabeth Street in Sydney watching the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras. There must have been a delay towards the front of the parade because this one float was stopped directly in front of us for about 45 minutes and they had one song on repeat - the techno-house version of Forever Young by Interactive. It wasn't for many, many years, until I heard the original version by Alphaville - that I realised exactly that - it was a cover!!!...............but, maybe because of what it meant to me, standing in that crowd, watching an amazing spectacle (sad to say the only time I have ever watched it live - although I always watch the telecast on SBS), I still always preferred this version.
Going through the dozen versions of forever young songs and this is one of my top three favorites. I like the Laura Branigan version where she modified it to her liking and its my top favorite. I barely remembered this one back in the late 1980's to early 1990's when I heard it in the dance clubs in San Diego and San Francisco bay area when I was dancing to this song in my early 30's as a young sailor. Then from 2023 onward when I accidently downloaded the Laura Branigan version I got fascinated when there were many versions of it and I imagained the word "forever young" is what fascinated people worldwide.
The feeling is hard to describe indeed. The cold war just ended, there was peace and an incredible euphoria. And the soundtrack was Techno and Eurodance. ❤👍💪☮️
Enjoy while it lasts kid. I was just like you listening to the original version of this back in the very early nineties. Now I'm old and wish that I could have it all back.
Snowwie88 your not the only one bud. Always gives me a tear or two.. especialy when you realise the original was all about the twats in power during the 80s and nuclear bombs.....
couse alot of us and i bet u too.. were young at that time. in our 20ies during the 90ies.. this was the thing for us at that time.. now.. just getting old.. damnit..
Kann es sein, dass Janet Jackson ihren Song _Again_ von _Forever Young_ inspiriert hat? ;) ... In beiden Songs gibt es einige Sequenzen, die sich recht ähneln. ;)
@@skaalian7039 Ja, dann hör Dir doch mal Janets _Again_ an ... Die ersten 4 Noten des Klavierintros entsprechen eins zu eins _Forever Young_ ... Erst danach entwickelt sich die Melodie in eine andere Richtung ...
