Ultravox - Vienna (Official Music Video) 

Any more music from you gentlemen is worth the wait.

This is one of my all time favourite songs. Not just anyone can sing this song - what a voice.

I always thought you were singing " Ive been in her " thats just wrong.....ltks for the fun 80's

Still iconically awesome, but the 90's was best. Just saying ;)

@@HSPGelton2 80's trust me

70's 🙆‍♀️

1969....

I'm still in shock on hearing the sad news. I can't believe it.

As put this track on I wasa scrolling througn the news and read Chris had dies. R.I.P. Chris now we dance with tears in our eyes.

Sad news

@@mrsgenehunt48 Lament

He was a real driving force , if not the primary In those early John foxx days , I remember buying the assembled album Ha Ha Ha , it still today packs a punch , I'm sure you get where I'm at, but anyone not hear early Uvx material put your headphones on and listen to the pre Midge era , John Foxx really good,bit of Iggy pop meets Bill Nelson and Chris Cross sound was mad , 79 I think foxx made the worst mistake on what I remember only one track worth at that transitional year from Punk,new wave , foxx dropped *Underpass* , totally not UvX , Synths, Drum emulators etc , he seemed to vanish , the rest, Midge and Chris , Warren C, Billie C they were , are in my top 10 bands that were banging live ...RIP CC

I lost my dad when I was 9.. I'm 55 now.. Trust me you will never forget him. I wish you and your family many happy years ahead

music is the gateway to the soul. your father is still with you.

You're thoughts are in my heart, all the best to you and you're family.👍

oh bless you and your late father sorry to hear you lost him and songs bring us closer to familyw with love xxx

Oh Damian sorry for your loss of your precious father. Its pure heartache losing a parent. Their memory lives in many forms. Music is the best way to remember. He obviously had amazing taste loving this song. Take Care Damian ❤

ya the 80s looked like a fun time...good music, no internet bullshit and sub cultures were still a genuine thing.

Im in my 60's. Seventies music was a standout. But 80s was exciting

@@robbiecrossing9447 yes, the 70's were really groundbreaking!

My favourite music is generally 82-95 ish, and I was born in that time.. so I can understand why you would say that. Thankful for the internet, and hopeful for the future.

@@bonechip01 Oooh......now you're talkin!

CONNY PLANK

Don't forget the epic video clip.

Viola!

it is a work of art in the form of pop music

Spot on!

Same

Yeah, brought me here too and i'm not dissappointed. Great tune.

The whole album was brilliant, one of the best.

Who's "they"? Why don't you? You should learn the synth, if you haven't already. Don't be a goof. The world is waiting for you.

Light one up and at the beginning, the drumming bom bom bom bom dam dam , blow out the ciggy smoke on the dam dam . It takes you out to space man 😊

Yes they do, you just have to look for it

yes and also getting to no 2 in the charts .................. when it should have been no 1 for months what a masterpiece

Wan Iensen ME TOO.. AWESOME SONG

INTENSE AND HYPNOTIC

Wan Iensen Vienna is the capital of Austria

Takes me back to the 1980's... memories.

Raven Eye Everybody knows that... I guess.

@@RogerSole2 Cool, thank you. I like that song 😉 The video: big man, big heart, happy guy. Loved it.

i was that same age too, we were so lucky to had been in that era .

I was around that age too, love 80's music.

We got old. I still can't believe it.

Crazy!!

I totally agree ,such a beautiful song ,hello from Dunoon ,Scotland.

@@ianpoole1861 Hello from Tennessee!

wow. i can imagine.

Very nice!

He is also a fantastic producer/engineer Scotland should be proud 😊

I was surprised to find it was available in the summer of 1980 on the album.

@@ajs41 It was the way the industry worked then. Thriller broke that model a couple of years later

And in the 'future'.....the song is still fabulous

Still has so much feeling and depth for me.

@@keristyles8668 Absolutely, it still does it for me.

You did well to just survive. I will you all good fortune.

Jo montenae You are some real special person to make it through all that ,I bet you have a great purpose I hope you realise that in your life to make all that hardship worthwhile.all the love in the world to you .keep rocking

Yes indeed spot on

It does with me too Dawn as I was 20 at the time and beginning to learn about life. It didn't all go well, but it was a once in a lifetime experience. x

Me to Dawn , I was 23 when first heard this song , now I'm 66 . My doesn't time fly ! . Still sends shivers though me ❤

Joe Dolce wouldn't shaddap his face.

There was also the slight matter of the killing of John Lennon.

Fyi, It reached 1st in Netherlands for six consecutive weeks.

@@abbofun9022 I meant to say UK charts. Joe wouldn't shut his face dolce kept them off the top spot

Agreed 👍 am I right it did eventually outsell shaddup your face that year in 1981 though here in uk ?

Happy birthday Vienna!

@@Eva-qo2ck Thank you Eva! I wil tell her...

Happy Birthday, Beautiful Vienna!

Love and respect to you and your family

RIP you dad mate. I never knew my father an I am about to become a father for the first time. The song is very reflective. Take care

God bless you 😍😍😍❤❤❤

@@garymane1843 Thank you.

❤

💜💜💜💜💜

❤❤❤

Maybe add Gary Numan to that list as the spark that lit the fire.

Yes my dear George Michael, was a great.

Don't forget David Bowie..my friend.

David Bowie and Fish Marillion

Paula Terry belongs on that list

😂, I came to know this today only though I have been listening to it for 10 years, genius

We're all getting old!

If it's British its always good.

I have to say, British culture is so great, musicians, filmmakers, writers, painters, all kind of arts.

Don't forget the 60s too :)

Guess it wasn’t called the Second (British Are) Coming for nothing. My question: when was the first one? The day Paul Revere’s took his out ride, or the day Paul McCartney and three other guys landed in the US for their first tour?

Yeh totally master-class through out 😎

Songs by the English group "Cardiacs" do, but they're not the same. They're also certainly not what I'd recommend to someone who wants to relax, unless you're sort of one who loves to relax in the middle of and in spite of a mental equivalent of a hurricane. Cardiacs are more dramatic, abrupt, chaotic, and (often to first-time listeners who go into Cardiacs' strangest territory) they can be _very_ confusing. One of their easier songs to listen to is "Big Ship," but it's not one of the twistier songs. That would go to "R.E.S.," for starters. After about the 2 minute mark, the song goes all over in an instrumental section for another 2 and a half minutes, including a "stop-start-stop" section that I've never heard repeated in any other piece of music. Here's to give an idea of what Cardiacs may sound like, if you know these following groups; Cardiacs have influences from early Split Enz, Gentle Giant, and XTC.

You should try Cygnet Committee then. I think David Bowie knows a loooot about twist and turns 👍

One exception,Bohemias Rapsody

@@ovidiuiftimie9071 agree with that one 100%, another classic

Totally agree with you.

If such people can't be persuaded by means of reasoned argument and empirical evidence (such as we see here) then they are best ignored.

I have never heard anyone say that, usually the opposite from every age group

You’re absolutely right. The more the world changes, the more I feel sad that my kids didn’t get to grow up in the world I did.

Music in this 21st century is terrible compared to the brilliant music from the 20th century especially the 1970s and 1980s IMO

That is what makes life special, we never stop learning and discovering new things. We will always have our music, that can't be taken away from us I hope

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8ZSlpoVpe_Y.html

The Americans brought me here. Man, love that these classics are being brought back full circular and we can bask in their greatness. :)

When I was younger my mum would sit me in front of VH1 and also play old VHS recordings of top of the pops. I'm in my 30s now and so grateful she did

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-L9SNJC3YcTQ.html what you think of this

Sorry, but good music is eternal. It knows no decade, greatest or forsaken. It belongs to the spheres once it is heard.

As a 65 year old i agree. But dont throw away the 60 and 70' s Kind regards

Why? Why you say "underrated"? I love it. Loads of others on here do. I've never heard ANYONE say - "aye that Vienna. It's Awright. But I prefer most of OMDs stuff" 🧐 Show me these underraters Hugo McCliche? Tick Tock

I as well.

She DOES mean SOMETHING to you then. True love.

Ure didn't like the tune and said "This means nothing to me" which was eventually used in the lyrics. 🤷

Kept off the UK number 1 spot by Shaddup You Face by Joe Dolce 🙄

WORD!!!

Absolutely! It's perfect!

@@darrendavies8252 As an Australian, I am embarrassed by that. I apologise on behalf of the whole country

@@TimmyTickle Don’t blame you, Joe Dolce or your country. British record buyers bought more of Joe’s single than Ultravox’s. Simple as that really.

80s forever baby ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I just Wikipedia Ultravox and they don't even mention Midge's name what's up with that???!!??

@@kareybarey13 you can his name to it with references

I was born in the 70s grow up in the 80s loved this reminds me of my late 2nd to youngest brother legend

It's not 80s, it's timeless. I love this song

ITS AH

Such beautiful lyrics.

I used to think mystic and soulful was mr. konsofu

when lyrics reads like poetry...The feeling is gone, only you and i this means nothing to me. oh Vienna! 🎶by Ultravox

My last dentist was into music of the era, and was amused when I reported to him, "The filling is gone!" You'd think he'd heard it before, and maybe he had, but he still found it amusing.

Underrated? Surely not. It's universally acknowledged as a classic.

@@mrvillan6951 I think he means yes it's underrated because it is acknowledged as one of the best if not the best song that never got to no.1 I won't mentioned the rubbish that kept it off the no.1 slot but it only went to no.2

To be honest it is kinda out on the margins of the classics for such an amazing song.

My top 5 best songs, your dad had great taste!sending love. ❤

This means nothing to me.

@@garou20zx Oh

down voting, I am not that old, this was from my teen age years, only a few decades ago. Sh1t I am old thanx for the slap.

I have Once In A Lifetime by Talking Heads recorded off the radio on cassette when it was in the charts.

@@garou20zx Ha, ha, ha, 😁 😂 😀 🤣 funny fucker! X

What an eloquent comment...

Well put!

can you elaborate on this at all? im very interested in context. thanks!

@@MrOranj Prague was on the eastern side behind the iron curtain

This means nothing to me.

Irony is, it was filmed in London lol

That’s my childhood ruined then😂😂😂

@@docgb5990 Not completely filmed in London - St Stephens Cathedral, the "Zentral Friedhof", Karlsplatz and a Viennese café were part of the video. Read the information about the video and you will learn about the ups and downs of Ultravox filming this video.

Thanks for that information 😊 it’s good of you to take the time to comment and I will read the information 🙏🏽

@@docgb5990 Happy to try and help your childhood not be completely ruined. All the best!

Same! I heard it in The Crown and was like "wait, I remember this song, I love it!"

What episode

@@bg137 im not sure but i think episode 3. It lasts for a few seconds only. Its in the new season 4

Same

Same, the crown brought me here

Woooo 🍕🐢🐢🐢🐢

I'm 55 the best times of our lives in the 80s

Well said

A truer word never said good times never to be seen again

So very true! Seems we appreciate that era more so now!

Darn Joe Dolce!

@Bill Sugden - Shaddup your face!

Rose tinted spectacles much?

Well this and "Are Friends Electric" announced the new musical era .. albeit AFE slightly earlier

80's music is in a class of its own.. I was 16 when this came out.. Every sunday paused over the record button to tape the top 20 from the top 40..

Lol... totally....I was around 14 as well

Don't you wish you could go back and relive that era again?

SteveL...THAT SONG MAN! 😍😍😍... Gary Numan ONLY keeps getting better musically AND better looking as time goes by. 😎👏👍😍

Tako je!

Jaba Coopster I agree with everything you said about this song. Sends shivers down my spine every time I hear it. That classical middle section is fantastic. Takes me back to hearing it on the radio when I was a small child.

Jaba Coopster...ALL THAT AND THIS VIDEO IS BEAUTIFUL TOO! 😍😍😍...Put this on my Best Songs From The 80'S mix tape! 😋😎👏👍😍

I agree, unlike Shut up a ya face, which is a big pile of steaming shite.

Jaba Coopster I think it would really be something to know you

Hav,nt you listened to Ultravox before Ure with John Foxx , before they became commersialised , and played into the system ,

BRADLEY MITCHELL yes i do agree with you ok 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

without a doubt.....i live in Canada and it took a long time for punk/new wave to get here - 80's and our clubs were the Luv a Fair (or luv your hair as it was also known) Smiling Buddha, Faces, Graceland and everyone wanted to go to England - it was always the talk - some actually did -- the whole punk thing was so fascinating to us and we emulated it as much as possible - if you were British you were the coolest thing alive - i miss those days (i have the CD in my car, yes a CD and i just played this today

Germany says: of course, but not only in the eighties. 🎵🇬🇧🎶

No question

Oh yes i bought both of those singles ahh those 80's were the best ever

70;s were better! Free Schools out rock concerts every year on the last day,Live bands all over in many hotels with live dancing replaced by strippers in the 80's,bush parties,The strip downtown replaced by LRT here (killed it) in the 80's also...I'm just getting started..Oh and crime was very low..But the 80;s were close 2cnd for me..

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8ZSlpoVpe_Y.html

Ain't that the truth!

amen to that

And thus...Vaporware! ;)

It's not too late! Keep fighting against all the bullshit. Good luck to you.

The toxic narcissistic boomers want to ruin what little of life we have left before they leave...

@@midgeure5679 Clown-world is nothing to me! But I bless the rock of Vienna. Be well and fearless.

Strong message. Yes we are here. Always
