Tribute - I Wanna Go Back (to the 80's) - Eddie Money 

It's true. We never knew how great it was until it was over.

Amen.👍😢👌

@@robertschlemmer6032 i thought it would never end and when it did i looked back and said man i felt like i lived in THE TWILIGHT ZONE it was so magical

I miss the 2000s

@@ibraheemrao8434 yes i must say way back in the year 2000 there were some good times movies and music was good too

We weren't all teenagers in the 80s 😉 Remember it fondly though - I was in my twenties. Huge decade of change.

@@20bluelilies I was a teenager 'til '84, and turned 20 in '85 unfortunately I was an ol' man in '89... because of my military service.... I went through some serious S💩t... BUT I don't regret it 🇺🇲🫡🤙😎🥃 OS-3 US NAVY inactive reserve NAB Little Creek Virginia.

agreed, nowadays it is mandatory for teens to take pubertyblockers or other drugs if a teacher tells them they are lgbtq, so sad

I miss being an 80’s kid. Was 8 in ‘84. 1983-1989 easily the best years of my life.

​@IronFistProWrestling666I'm gonna get a shirt that says I hate people under 35....

EXACTLY ... ! REAL FUN AND ENTERTAINING TIMES ... WITHOUT ANY CELLPHONES / INTERNET ... !

And yet here you are watching a video on the Internet on your device, a video that has been edited and made by technology that did not exist in the 80's, and sharing your thoughts about an earlier time period with like minded individuals that you probably would never previously have met or communicated with on social media.

@@julieporter7805 Not one second of the conversation has benefited anyone, so the Internet is totally useless…

@@Lionsfan59 And again here you are disproving your own theory.

@@julieporter7805 Yup, and your answer did nothing for civilization…

Born ´77 here, and I strongly do believe that the '90s were the 1980s light.😊

Well said sir, same here on everything except for the grandparent part, kudos!

And you felt the need to write a book on here WHY? SMH

@@BAKER22-l4uYeah, 9 sentences constitutes a book, and “Where’s Spot?” Is a sweeping epic novel. 😂

Damn straight 👍

...circle of life ugh...🥺

Yup. I thought it would never end. What a ride...

Well said! I was a kid in the 80s, but what a magical decade!!

I remembered seeing Back to the Future in '85, man I wish I can find Doc Brown right now......!!!!

Well said everyone hard to believe now where it's goin the World wise.Getting old suxs who would have thought also flawless about the 80s coming into it's 40s yikes gosh omg scary never knew at the time and as a kid it would happen doesn't deserve that least we grow and die knowing we are with the 80s forever

Truth!!

and would enjoy it even more the second time

@@iamdragonettatoo hell yes. Remember all the great mini-series that Mom liked for romance and Dad liked for the war/history. Remember after school coming home and watching things like Batman, WKRP, Welcome Back Kotter. Remember figuring out which of your friends were each member of the A-Team. The weird feelings you would get watching the shiny aerobic outfits. Before you owned a VCR renting one along with movies for a weekend sleepover. Older cousins who would rent really bad horror movies like Maniac and Funhouse.

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

​@@gen-x-dadScooby Doo, he-man, What's Happening , Different Strokes. Etc. And yes,the 80's horror movies. What a time to be alive.

Me, too! I'll bring the Delorean!!

exactly, thanks for the comment

Absolutely best ever 👍👍👍👍💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

I didn’t even discover this song until like 4-5 years ago! I knew Eddie Moneys other hits but never heard this one until later. Great song and powerful

I was a sophomore in high school when Billy Joel's "This Is The Time" was released and I remember feeling bittersweet about the lyrics, knowing that they were true. I knew even then that it was a magical time. This is the time to remember Cause it will not last forever These are the days to hold on to Cause we won't, although we'll want to

It sure was, glc!

Class of '88 👍

Clas of 83. It was a ride.

Same, '87.

Same here! Without looking it up guess what was the #1 song in the country that year.

Magical 🧙🏾 is exactly how I always describe the 80s.

You bet!!!!!👍😁👌

Let's all go back!

The internet has ruined people. Social media specifically.

Definitely no cell phones. We had to actually talk to one another back then. None of this walking around like a zombie with phones stuck in our face like today.

100% agree! And skywalker6268 is right, the Internet and social media have complete destroyed human interaction and turned it into some cold, digital, and anonymous. We have become hatefuI and crueI because it is so easy to say the worst things imaginable when you know you're not going to get busted in the chops for it. And it is absolutely destroyed the dating landscape but making actual human interaction an afterthought.

@CarlosClarkIIMD but if u didn't have internet. You couldn't watch these videos.

I'm a proud 80's kid. My daughter always asks me what it was like to grow up in the 80's. I get teary eyed telling her what it was like 😢

pop culture peaked in the 80's

The 80s, was a roller coaster ride for me man what a time!!

Bet you wish you had your 67 back. Sold mine in 89. In 2012 I bought a 69 Camaro. In the 80’s they were what we could get. 2012 it wasn’t the 2000 dollar car anymore either. Can you put a price on nostalgia? Nope!!

@@ellisonlowrimore7751 Yeah sure wish I had my 67. My father had original 69 Z28 DZ 302 #'s matching car which was in magazines. His looked better but mine was faster LOL

Class of 85 here. Had a 1968 GTO with a 69 Judge engine. Heck yea I wish I could go back !

You have nothing to worry about.

Now that is totally radical 😉 seriously though. That’s awesome!

I got married in 84. Still together and both missing that decade. Best music.

I Got Married In 1988 And Underwent Gender Reassignment Surgery In 2022, Sued My Employer And Ex Wife For Being Transphobic And Won, Both Will Serve Time or Pay Fines, Fk The 80s

@@pb4ugo2bed84 We'll aren't you just a winner.

Happy Birthday!

I was Class of ‘84 myself. Looking back, those were the best times of life. I too miss my youth….

Same here

Class of 84, myself those was some good days back in the day!

Class of 84! Why does it seem like yesterday to me. 😢

Class of ‘82 !! Graduated college in 1987. And then spent a year in Spain. This song is all about me. Hell yes, I wanna go back to the 80s!! I can’t properly put into words just how amazing and wonderful the 80s were. It’s a cliche, but it was truly a magical time to spend ages 15 to 25. The music was the best there’s ever been. The parties were crazy, and the movies and sitcoms were the best! Take me back, please!!

me too class of 85

Class of ‘83!

Class of 89.

💯

I bet Spain was awesome!

⁠@@johnjamesjoseph3814 It really was. Seville, Spain is so beautiful. The people of Seville were so good to us. In my case, I was so blessed to live with Pepita and Manolo Gutierrez y Prada. They were husband and wife, 62 and 58 years old at the time. They really spoiled me. Spanish people are so friendly and outgoing. And of course, Spain has such incredible history. I lived just two blocks away from Rio Guadalquivir which is the river used by Christopher Columbus to bring back gold to Spain from the New World. Pretty historical.

Truth. I feel the same way about subjects we learned about in history like WWII.

@@gen-x-dad it really is amazing, when we were growing up in the 80's, 40 years felt like it was a long time ago and now it feels like it was yesterday. I guess it's all about perception but now I realize what my parents meant when they said time flies because it sure does.

We really didn't know at the time just how great and amazing we had it. #iwannagoback

exactly!

Me too 8-18…so many memories 😊

Also 8-18. There couldn't have been better ages to have experienced the 80's. Class of '89.

Same 8 to 18...what a blast!!!

Sorry to hear especially about David, but at least you are hanging onto the good memories.

I kind of wish Facebook would have come along a bit earlier though. It turned out to be a great way to connect with old classmates and friends we had lost touch with. I could do without the "discourse", the influencers, and all that, but the original functions of Facebook I thought were great. I mean who didn't look up their old crushes on Facebook???

well i beat you by a couple years, but that's a big milestone for sure!

Yea I graduated high school in 90 lol

Same

You're old AF

Eddie Money was always under apprecaited here in Canada. Other than Two Tickets he really didn't get much love. His "Can't Hold Back" album was one of my most listened to back in the day.

agree about 1984

exactly no internet or smart phones good times best music best movies tv shows should have stayed in the 80s haha

‘84 was a great year!!

1989 ranks up there too!!! The SUMMER of 1989 had the most BLOCKBUSTER MOVIES hit the THEATRES ever in American History!!!

Ghostbusters, The Terminator, Beverly Hills Cop, Indiana Jones, The Karate Kid, Van Halen 1984 Album, LA Olympics, Magic and Larry finally meet in NBA FINALS, The Great One wins his first Stanley Cup, yeah 1984 was the year that JUMP STARTED the rest of the decade!!! @@gen-x-dad

“The Best of Times” by STYX would have worked also…

Even the worst song in the 80's, is better than the best song now. This is an unfeeling generation. The music has no soul. It's not upbeat. And don't get me started on this generations so called rap.

"THE 80'S F#@KING RULES!!!!!!!!!!

@@LONEWOLF-1970 RAP rhymes with CR*P!

Holding Back The Years Simply Red,I've Had The Time Of My Life Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes to Turn Back The Clock Johnny Hates Jazz competition on the charts all over the World so diverse unique any genre the Videos thanks to You Tube for that was watching Videos as a kid.All the TV Programmes with their mean Themes it never ends so much research im only know or got 1 inch of the 80s it take forever and rightly so love to do it all over again the way we had it on repeat like a Video we were playing and watching we never goin to know mysteries of life short but packs a punch nothing will beat the 80s those 10years felt like 20 double or nothing we take it.Not a care in the World with time weather aging money no worries or responsibilities u did what u did as a kid go with the flow it wins in history.CDs Records Tapes to VCR and VHS to Atari 2600 or 7800

Same here!

I never thought to look on Tubi for 80's movies, thanks for the tip

thanks, glad to hear another shout out for wrestling

We are ready

Cell phones are an invasion of privacy imo things were better withought them

@@bjeffrey1863 yup
