Different people, different clothes, different ideas, students, unemployed or working... but all dancing and having fun together... those were fun times!!
This is how humanity needs to be and everything would be great this is like a planet that can never be damn someone needs to hurry up with this time machine shit cough Elon
You csn dance..just do not invite Gen Y or Gen Z. They wouldn't get the Scene or Endeavour to undedramd4it. Just dit and Critique. We were The New Gold Dream. And they weren't. But Hades shall follow after..
@@vsander09 rose coloured glasses ...I'm nearly sixty, I lived in London squats in the late seventies/early eighties and yeh, it was great for the middle class kids as in this video. And if you still get down on the underground scenes, there's still plenty of 'depth' as you put it.
It actually had drag shows every Saturday night and then a mosh pit on Mondays. It was a crazy mix of different people and Jeff Hanson played the best music.
Foetus, Bauhaus, Numan, Siouxsie T-Shirts moving around, all people are cool, but happy, all shy, but giving a shit about conventions, all dancing together, but all are individuals. Best time to be young. Happy that I was a part of it.
Honestly if you wouldn't of said Foetus not sure I would said hello. Im a child of the 80's so I did my makeup like Siouxsie and used terms like new waver however I know I still learned this style of dancing from watching Robert Smith dancing in videos... Can't say I was apart of it but where I live we still ornamate dance like this...is it mine or theirs? I don't know its an era that collapses on us as a human race over and over thats for sure. The only differences are no more button up shirts, aqua net and a ton more dreads where i play. Born in 77 btw
@dog(s)damour: The difference is, that many young people told me, they wanted to be part of the eighties and I never thought, when I was young, I wanted to be young at the sixties...and the www changed everything. But of coz, it‘s always nice to be young, when you find your way to enjoy it.
I feel like culture has reached a dead end from the late 90s. It's all been crap since then. I was born in 1983 and feel like I can die at any moment without longing to live longer and wanting to see what the future holds.
My friend this stuff still happens today... Different genres but it's fundamentally the same; people from many cultures/subcultures just enjoying themselves. Real life isn't what you see on TV or the internet, people still kick it
@@suunxSpirit Keep telling yourself that. Young people are totally different people today. You can't go 2 m without dodging several young people with the face in their mobile. They don't see the world anymore they see bits of information about the world they can't comprehend through a screen and filters. They think they know it all but they know nothing. Worst combination of things.
As someone who wasn’t close to being born in the 80’s this looks like heaven. Just people being people, free souls enjoying and expressing themselves without a hit of shame. Can’t help but feel like I missed something great.
There is a definite innocence and freedom to this. No-one shackled to their phone or looking for a fight. Everyone is so confident in themselves and their appearance. I follow an 80's band and their live performances take me back to this place. I forget where I am for a whole evening!!
I miss the days when people more socially engaged with one another. I miss the days when we didn't have to deal with the anxiety induce by social media and technology.
Whene you look closely, many of them are very shy... but the try and enjoy and it is beautiful. I like how the dance for maybe the half of them is a lot about appareance (to look coll) BUT not for seduction. They (we =)) didn't need a lot of sky and hig heels, silver or gold or expansive fashion to be funny and happy ! And a few like the asian boy without make up are completely into their movement. I was 23 in tha time and in had very stange fashion and hair, andmy best friend was even mor extrême (hig hair above his head with gold spray and self made clothes... Infortunately he gone without me in the clubs because i was to shy. I as a dancer eally knew how to dance, but in never understood the meaning of dancing in a club, i never felt feel well and felt a bit afraid and unconfortable. Sometimes i played "cool" like all this young people and nobody could know, but it was exhausting and i almost never go in those places. my friend enjoyed it a lot, he knews a lot of people, models etc.
People in the 80s were oozing with coolness without realizing it or trying. People who now are trying to relive the 80s just ooze desperation, fakeness, and blahness.
Me too. Dreams of what our future would hold, our hopes and ideas. Youth, from the perspective from back then. Now that I am 50, I have not fulfilled my dreams, I am saddened and wish I could go back, do it all again, but with what I know now. I have to let go of the past. It's killing me.
This song paired with this video is the purest distillation of the 80s underground/alternative experience. Nothing after, ever came as close to those halcyon days. To every Generation Xer who sees this, I love you dearly. We tried to make the world a better place and we succeeded, for a short time, in creating little versions of Utopia all over the world. I’m only speaking on behalf of the goths, post punks, New Romantics, new wavers, indie kids and ravers but things like race and sexuality were NOT an issue in our subsculture. Diversity was the fuel that made everything feel so new and free and it was natural, nobody forced it upon anybody. In Detroit, the scenes were relatively small, so there was a lot of crossover. We were just destined, as a generation, to do things differently. It you were there, elbow to elbow, with throngs of sweaty, open-minded individuals, losing your mind (and your inhibitions), you’ll know what I’m talking about. Todd’s, Clutch Cargo’s, The Shelter, Ledernacht/The City Club, Isis, The Music Institute, The Warehouse, Numbers, Club Heaven/Club Hell… Detroit, MI, USA
I was 18 in 86. I always worked midnights back then so I was always up all night on my days off. Danced at City Club till about 2005. Detroit was a great underground club scene.I also danced at Ascension UK, Labrynth, Porter Street, The Shelter, Motor, The Temple and tons of other spots I can't remember the names of. So many great times. I clubbed for 20 straight years every chance I could. I thought it would never end back then.
La première fois que j'ai vu cette vidéo je ne savais pas que c'était au États-Unis j'étais certain que j'étais pour me voir apparaître dans cette vidéo j'en ai eu pour une semaine à m'en remettre tellement d'émotions m'ont traversées wow ! Quel choc
This song got me through lock down. Whenever I felt lonely, I’d watch this and pretend I was there, dancing with my friends. It makes me weep every time I watch it. I cry like a baby. It’s insane how powerful this song is. Please don’t ever take this down. Lyrics: I can't remember feeling real Like the candle burning bright Visions of love and me And another face of the world Beyond your eyes forever moonlight I look into your eyes I can't pretend there's two ways You could hear the sound of the world Breaking this feeling Candle burning bright I see you and me passion When you tell me what a wonderful world Loving me I swear you just can fall Into my arms Into my arms But I break out of feeling real Whoa whoa whoa Whoa whoa whoa
This video is a kind of magic... In 1986, I was far away from California as I used to go to a nightclub in Strasbourg (north east of France) where you could dance on "alternative music" like Sisters of Mercy, Bauhaus, B52's, Trisomie 21, Joy Division and so many others! I was 20 and future was a kind of joke! Years passed and life drove me away from spikes or hairy cuts "Cure Style" but I guess that part of me got stuck in the 80's. The magic of this video is that it made me go back in black 8 years ago and search for places where I could go back to the present and , in a way, make the past continue to live! And I found it! Every year, I go to Leipzig (for the WGT) among thousands of people from all other the world and not only with 50 years old persons like me! you also find people who are 20, who have never heard of Circa for example ;) but they enjoy the present like I did 34 years ago (ouch! :)) and I still do nowadays. Told you this video is a kind of magic! ;-)
salut ! j'vois que t'es français (je suppose) ! Sur Dijon, le 6 novembre y'a un concert de post-punk/cold wave: RASKOLNIKOV ( Cold Wave Post Punk / Suisse ) DEAR DEER ( Post Punk / Lille ) VENIN CARMIN ( Cold Wave Post Punk / Lyon ) Si t'es intéressé, ça se passera aux Tanneries, y'a moyen que ça te fasse revivre les 80's !
give me some music salut à toi! sympathique le programme mais cela va m’être compliqué de me rendre à Dijon le 6 novembre...j’ai juste 7 000 kms à la louche pour y arriver ! J’espère tout de même que le concert pourra se tenir...je vise surtout le WGT à Leipzig en 2021...si tu passes par là, tu ne regretteras pas le voyage à mon avis.
There was the same nightclub in guipavas called the Melody ...i was nineteen years old...and it was a very very cool nightclub where we can dance on this kind of music..i regret this finished time...😔
Dancefloor footage from the actual 80s is so much more heart warming and genuine than the 80s revival stuff that tries hard to replicate the 80s but ends up being a ersatz version of the 80s that's just lame and widens the gap for my longing for the 80s. You can't replicate the naivety, wholesomeness, or creativity of the 80s! People in the 80s didn't have the internet and were very limited with what they could create musically and culturally. But they managed to maximize what they had and create something so unique, so special, so totally 80s! As for lame 80s revival crap, I'm talking about sh!t like this Lebanon Hanover music video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-a1oSXlU0ZUk.html
J'ai 57 ans et quand je vois cette vidéo je repense à mes jeunes années 80 dans le sud de la France a Avignon les nightclub ou j allais musique rock, punk, New wave .... Beaucoup d émotions
Al empezar la década de los 80, yo tenía 17 años. Esa década y la de los 90 fueron irrepetibles!!! La música, la forma de vestir, la forma de bailar. Yo he sido afortunado al vivir todo eso. New wave, new romantics, tecno... The Cure, Dépêche Mode, New Order uffff. Tresomie y este video me han traído recuerdos inolvidables.
I'm really quite bored with not dressing like the 80s. I want a pair of bowling shoes or pink Capezios, a boy scout shirt with the badges on it (I'm a girl), a pair of Ndn blanket print bongos & some Tenax!
Gut am Jungsein in den 80ern und 90ern war auch: keine Smartphones und damit auch keine Beweisfotos im Netz und auf Konzerten das Feuerzeug hochgehalten, bis man sich den Daumen verbrannt hat… danke fürs Hochladen und die Erinnerungen!
I was 3. I'm glad to have had the opportunity to have a glimpse of the 80s. The vibe of the 80s was magical. Then the 90s happened and wiped the happiness away. There are a tiny few aspects of the 90s I'm nostalgic for, but it can't hold a candle to the 80s.
@@curupirauirapuru3368 16 fer me and I always got into clubs without showing id. The real fun was when I started working in the club scene. The stories I could tell......well you get me, they could make one blush.😛🇬🇧🇮🇪✌🏼
I was born in 1983, so I've gotten a glimpse of the decade. What little I remember, I remember much more fondly than the 90s. I consider the 80s a golden era of music.
@Paulo Zerati Me too. Glad I got to see the 80s even if I was too young to party. Also glad I was a teenager in the 90s. I feel bad for kids who came of age after 2000s.
Everyone was original! It was original on its own and can never been replicated the same way ever again without being deemed as ridiculous. It was fabulous I must say... even the hair which many laugh at.
Absolutely reminds me of happy days, I am 62 now looking 42 lol, the hair, clothes booze, etc. The music. I saw many of the great 80's bands at the University of East Anglia, great Students Union, at the time, all the latest groups played, I saw so many, Fab times, great, great video. Thank you xxx
@@renereto22 es gab bei uns in der Dorfdisko ne Standardreihenfolge. So kurz vor Ende gabs dann alles Richtung Synthpop \ Gothic. Bei Blutengel war ganz wichtig immer ne ernste Fresse ziehen :D . Dann war ich mal "jetzt" (das war schon vor 12 Jahren) in nem moderneren Club, die spielten ja kein Stück aus und alles so als live-Remix. Und alles maximal aus Ende 90er. Die Dorfdisko hat zu gemacht wegen Baufälligkeit. Die beiden andern gibts auch nicht mehr.
People my age and older remember these days....and miss them. We all have smartphones and social media, yes.....but I have to say that I miss life before all of it. When I compare now to then...I want to go back in time. We have more technology these days, of course, but I miss life before people were addicted to their phones.
I love the internet, but when it wen't mobile the world changed, and not for the better. Do kids still play outside in the mud, climb tree's and come home with bruises, laughing it off cause they had fun?
@@nem447 I recommend watching just every cringe video if you want to know what these fucking below 24 pukes are up to. You will laugh your ass off, and probably lose some IQ, but it's worth.
I’m 44 and Scottish...I’d hand back the internet and mobiles, reclaim our kids’ innocence and go back to the 80’s in a fackin heartbeat❤️😎we were a nicer happier people. This video is amazing 🤩 best wishes to anyone reading this random comment🤗
Mate, it's crazy how we've become anti-social zombies. It's getting even harder to engage it a conversation, a smile or whatever at my place of work. ROBOTS. So, best wishes to you 100% on your point of view. p.s I'm 44 and English
Such a beautiful song, it makes you feel both happy and sad, and just looking at these people, so young, in their primes just slowly dancing to the music, it gives me a feeling I can’t describe.
John Wisdom i feel like this is What is lowkey happening now, we were talking about this with my friend just yesterday, so good to hear every generation had it like that :)
Totally agree. It's like, everyone thinks the era when they were 16-20 was the best time for music, or they missed the best time & it was 20 years before. In the 80s I loved 60s music & goth music, and now I'm seeing a LOT of folks saying the 80s/90s were the peak for goth, totally ignoring the scene today - and in 20 years people will be all "The 2010s rocked, man..." - it's never really a peak thing, just a continuum. We need to learn to see it when it's happening.
I dont know about that one. People have always been sheep. Siouxsie Sioux said " The thing I liked about punk was its individuality, its sense of not having to conform to the norm. Then I turned up to do a concert and looked into the crowd and seen 100 people dressed up just like me " Once the underground becomes the mainstream, as the mainstream consumes everything, it's dead and yesterdays culture
When something becomes popularized everyone wants that style so it becomes unoriginal. Everyone wanted to look like Rah band, Madonna, Tina Turner, David Bowie... and Prince. Everyone wanted their styled and mimicked it.
Damn this video, I watched it yesterday and it has regressed me to when I was 21 with the panicky feeling there ain't no going back. Enjoy while you can, live life, be brave and have no regrets.............
Wise words. I was too shy and unsure of myself ever to go clubbing in those days (besides, there weren't any clubs where I was), but I did love the music of the late 70s/early 80s (as I still do) and bought the vinyl when I could get hold of it and the money for it. So, yes, even if you feel uncertain, be brave and get out there, create your future memories when you can, seek joy and LIVE LIVE LIVE.
Blonde at 3:35 is my ex Erica DeWitt ...shes 56 now and lives in Florida ...i was friends with the majority of the people in this vid ....times change memories don't and friends change but we lived the best time for music and people
I saw them live, in the late 80's...on top of a mountain, in France...after the concert, we made a walk in the forest with them, it was so great....fucking life, everything is gone now....greetings to all my friends from this magical period......Ann, i'll never forget you
Yo era un niño en los 80 pero a finales de la década e inicios de los 90 ya era un adolescente. Viví algo de esa época, cuando no había smartphones ni redes sociales, cuando se valoraba la presencia y la interacción humana, cuando conocer a una persona nueva suponía toda una aventura, un enigma por desentrañar, conocías a las personas sin prisas poco a poco, a fuego lento, la palabra dada era sagrada, confiabas secretos sin miedo a ser traicionado, nadie sabía dónde estabas pero siempre te encontrabas con gente al salir de bares y pubs, la aventura era permanente... Años increíbles que tardarán mucho en volver, cuando el declive energético y la desglobalización impidan a la mayor parte de la Población tener smartphones y sea cosa de ricos y los de abajo regresemos de nuevo a vivir en zonas de opacidad...
+Vtek 10 hardly, 80's was best for punk, goth rock and new wave I think. 90's much, much better for dance, out of the question, 80's dance is pure shit against that as long we're not limiting it to '89 here. To the other guy: Nobody killed disco, it's still alive, probably not kicking but that it never did anyway
I was a teen in the eighties. It was a great time to be alive. Before the real internet and cell phones or surveillance cameras everywhere. It was awesome.
In a way....thank god for it cause we got to see these videos and hear great music yk, thank god for youtube letting us get these videos and songs for free man😌

I often wonder how many people who shyed away from being filmed would give everyday since then to now to go back and get a visual record of when they were young ,carefree and beautiful , everything passes but memories last 😀🥳
I am in there in the background about five minutes in!! Love it. I used to go dancing there every night. School, work, play rehearsals, then dancing. Every night.
*Great video, Trisomie 21 is an amazing artist... I was born in 1985 but wish that I lived in the 80's, the music, the attitude, the people, the style, the clothes... I have always felt so alienated in this 21st century era and feel that the time in the 80's is where I always belonged.*

I was 16-17 y.o. student at Hollywood High, CA around that time. Aqua Net was our best-friend, just don't touch the hair after you spray, it would flake like snow, Trident was the best gum to chew because it lasted the longest, creepers shoes were awesome, 35 cents to ride the bus...best time of my life!
+Miki Lynn me too i miss that time in Montreal alternative club,we need two thing ! A medecine to get my youth and a time machine and when i'll get back then,i'll loop those years forever, Et Voilà je suis là! For you just the time machine will be alright.
