Me too! When MTV started in the US, I fell in love with every British band I saw. I started seeking out British Music only, Starting w Eurythmics, Culture Club, Duran Duran, The Smiths, the Cure, Cocteau Twins, New Order/Joy Division Siouxsie etc. All that “second British Invasion” music was awesome. Watched “the Tube; SNUB, The Young Ones, and a few years later Mtv came out with “120 minutes” and it was mandatory viewing for me.

I have a few problems with this... Firstly, there's no way he says "we're just children". I can't even begin to hear that no matter how many times I listen to this. It's "we are mature children". That's all I hear, every time. Also, you put "in the eye of the pathos daughter", but it pretty clearly says "faithless daughter". Finally, I hear "take us forever", and you put "changes forever". That one might be right but it's not how I hear it. Judging by the writing credit at the bottom, I assume you copy+pasted this from a lyric website, in which case it's they who are wrong. Sadly even the most reputable lyric websites aren't reliable 100% of the time. Guess the only way to truly find out is to check the original liner notes or ask the person who wrote it. Still a great song either way.

I played 'clean' guitar in an 'indie' band in the early 1980. We wrote and played our own songs. I now realise by listening to this and The Ocean Blue, The Wild Swans etc. that we also had a distintive 1980s sound. It's not all about heavy rock and flashy solos. Oh what fun we had back then. What a glorious musical decade. It's all about melody. Great stuff.

I was the same! Roland Jazz Chorus 120 with out-of-phase Stratocaster sound. I think of this track as way earlier than Ocean Blue; I liked OB a lot (especially their production) but for me they were college while this song is so junior high, early eighties-New Wave-Second British Invasion EPIC. One of the immortal classics. That jangly, stereo chorus solid state guitar sound was all over the early-to-mid eighties; the guitarist for our band got the JC-120 for Christmas sophomore year and we were in AWE. Stereo chorus! The Fixx (“Stand or Fall”), Duran Duran (“Is There Something I Should Know”) and Flock of Seagulls (“Space Age Love Song”) are all iconic examples. Unfortunately, I was the keyboardist in my little band, and wow did I feel lame trying to recreate what was coming out of megabucks Fairlights and PPG Waves and Oberheim xPanders with the meager funds I had. I finally got my hands on a Prophet V by senior year, but that was ‘87 when the era was getting kinda lame. But I wouldn’t trade anything in the world for coming of age during 1977-1986! Music has never been the same.

Of all of the phenomenal music of the '80s--and we all know there was a lot--this song has got to be in my all-time Top Ten '80s list. So iconic; transports you back, just like that. Genius track.

In 1984 I was a freshman in High school and I remember the day my big brother brought this album home from the record store on cassette. I recall it vividly, even these thirty-nine (39)years later, because the cassette case was very unusual. It was bright ORANGE! 😂 Also memorable, as he placed it in the cassette deck, closed the door and pressed "PLAY," my ears were gloriously assaulted by the opening drumbeat. What a kick this song is! 😍

A very underrated drum track. Not as easy as it sounds. There are two here actually. The main kit and the Octobans. The Tama drum company made Octobans, a set of long, thin tom-toms for a brief moment in the 1980's. Look up Billy Cobham for more playing.

And gas was 90 cents a gallon then and steady (the price went up in the 70's dimwit) Now we have socialists and globalists and militant muslims plotting to take over the entire world with their satanic horrors - grooming gangs, eating babies, transgender everything, corrupting and perverting every child they can find.... and dimwits like you saying there's no difference.

I agree the '80s had one of the most fabulous pop culture periods in history (I was there, so I admit I am partial!) - but have to agree with Christopher Miller on the other points, heh. And sadly, for LGBTQ people during that period, I acknowledge that it was a time of great fear, grief, and stigma, due to the AIDS crisis that struck so many people in that community. I am _so glad_ an HIV/AIDS vaccine is finally coming out next year - amazing!!

Life defining for some, a hidden gem for others. I love how youtube can help you discover "new" old music. Before you needed a radio DJ, magazines and friends to do that. And there are countless of hidden gems. Sometimes you can even find whole playlists of them. I hope the generation that didn't experience the album-buying-days get to appreciate just how insane that really is and how expensive their playlists would 've been if they should have bought its as records or even cassette tapes back in the mid 80's.

I do listen to those groups rom time to time and they take me back, the 80's was a great time for music. So much crap nowadays, what a shame.
