We loved the 80s, we loved Icehouse and we loved this song. This video shows that great music is ageless and timeless. We enjoyed it, danced to it, listened to it in the car and had a great time doing so. What an amazing song and what great memories it brings. Thank you for that Icehouse.
@@pusanghalaw He's in his 60s here. Yes, the high notes are much harder to hit. 30 years does take a toll on the vocal cords. No one at 60, sounds like a 20 or 30 year old.
Iva's voice is still the perfect blend of silk and denim, after all these years he's still got the perfect voice, perfect tones, the so called singers today stand to learn a thing or two about attaining and maintaining a wonderful voice👍🤩👍
Could play this, BOWIE this is not America and ROXY MUSIC More than this for hours non stop...and be transported back to the best years of my life, when hope for a vibrant future was so strong!
Dou muito valor para essa década de ouro ... não tinha nada tecnologia...as pessoas ouviam música boa o tempo todo. Pessoas dessa época tem outro nível cultural.
I am in the Midwest USA and only ever recall hearing 'Electric Blue' on the radio when I was a child. I knew nothing else about Icehouse until just a few days ago, when I came across this song. I love everything about it; the melancholy vibe; the mellow, hypnotic rhythm, and Iva Davies' vocals are stunning! Elsewhere on a reaction to this song, someone made a comment that really resonates with me regarding the feel of this song: " that aloof, cool synth, melancholic backbeat, the longing of stretched vocal notes and faraway timbres -- this is the mid 80s where under all the glitz and vivid colors was a lonely 3am drive home on a long stretch of highway and an empty feeling in your heart."
ICEHOUSE, como otros grupos buenos de los 80's viene al rescate de la actual porqueria de música que se escucha en las radios. La Buena música JAMÁAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS pasará de moda. Tan simple como eso. Grande ICEHOUSE. !!! Gracias x subir éste video.
This song is the one who introduced me ICEHOUSE... Simply GORGEOUS. A mix of poetry and Melody absolutely perfect. One of my Favorite Bands of all times along with Duran Duran, Depeche Mode, Simple Minds and Tears for Fears.
I am a child of the 80s, I have just found Icehouse again ( thank goodness). Iva's voice is still as amazing as it always was infact better. Just love this track.
As a Drummer, I can relate to a 4 on the floor kind of groove. Drums and Bass are the Engine Room of the Band, providing a solid foundation for any given song. For a song that tells a story, one needs a steady groove that is not dominating, allowing the song to breathe. Iva has a voice that is rich but yet suttle that is well suited to a song of this style. I feel that Iva has maintained his voice throughout because he is not a screamer or at least he doesn't feel the need to use to much vocal force when singing. Every well written song has good dynamics and Iva is a fine example of this. Well done to Team Icehouse. Myself, I'm a versatile musician (Drummer by Trade). I've had the pleasure of recording & performing along side Tony Llewellyn (former Icehouse keyboards and backing vocals 1991 to 2004). Tony & I worked together during the 2000's for about 5 years and are still keeping in touch. Just to end on a note: Michael Paynter and Man of Colours, Wow.👍 Michael's voice blends really well with the Oboe. Once again, Great job, love your work. Cheers, Brendan
@WinterGirl - I would not say he sounds like Bowie, but similar quality and range for sure; ok hang on, I am writing while I listen and I can hear it a little. You have good taste in music as does everyone who is listening to this. Icehouse not heard enough these days, especially here in the northern hemisphere!
I remember listining to this group for the first time when I was 14 yrs, by the way I am 48 now. I dont like to compare singers, but this man has a combination of David Bowie, and the elegance of Bryan Ferry. Love it. Hello from Mexico.
SUENAN TERRIBLEMENTE BIEN EN VIVO ESTOS TIPOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SUPER BANDA AUSTRALIANA, SALUDOS DESDE TUCUMAN - ARGENTINA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HOJE eu com 34 anos já AMAVA a banda e essa linda ORQUESTRA de TALENTO desde quando EU tava dentro do ventre da MINHA MÃE. PARABÉNS ICEHOUSE 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏, QUE NOSSO ALTÍSSIMO JESUS CRISTO PAPAI DO CÉU SEMPRE ILUMINE A VIDA DE CADA UM DE VOCÊS. E que CONTINUE com os SUCESSOS CADA DIA, MÊS, ANOS E SÉCULOS. 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏🙏
Holy Christ, got into you guys right when covid hit. been going through every single song and have found a lifetime band which I never thought I would find again! You are awesome and brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm very proud to be a Generation X man. I've listened to talented artists like these just turning on a simple radio. All I can say is THANK YOU for your talent.
Magic ... his voice is getting better and better with age. All of Icehouse's songs still sound fresh and crisp today. Wonder if I ever will have the fortune to see them live as they probably won't come to Europe anymore I assume.
Minha mente, viajava com essa música! Adolescente se apaixonando todos os dias! Rsrs as músicas marcavam o tempo, que se escorria pelas mãos feito areia do deserto!, ICEHOUSE Gratidão! Sua musica faz parte da minha vida!
Aaaah man... this song has never fail to satisfy... absolute hair raising.. his voice mesmerising..absolute Masters.... so inlove with this group and their music.
Listening to this masterpiece takes me back to my childhood when life was so easy and nothing to be scared off. Playing outside with lots of friends and growing up without worries.
@@oddities-whatnot there are some things i would do different at this time to be hounest. If i knew back then what i know at this moment i would have a whole different life if you ask me.
Que honra,prazer,satisfação...sei lá... Como foi maravilhoso ter vivido a década de 80! Hoje eu tenho histórias boas para contar e momentos inesquecíveis para recordar!
The song No promises is undoubtedly one of the great songs of the 20th century. We are in the 21st century and there is still no song that surpassed No promises.
Icehouse excelente banda ochentera,sin duda una de las mejores, marcó una época distinta dónde casi todas las canciones de esos años eran tremendas composiciones,todas buenas !!..Grande Icehouse ! Sigan vigentes por muchos años más...
Pra mim está entre as 10 músicas mais bonitas de TDS os tempos. Viagem total ela: letra , ritmo ,melodia.... E o " Dave " mantém em forma sua voz. 👏👏👏😱
Exacto.... ICEHOUSE y varios grupos del estilo NewWave tuvieron esa cualidad...Con su música dejarnos " amarrados " a nuestra querida época. Excelente grupo.
Who's listening in 2024?
❤ me from 🇲🇽 México
Eu Brasil ,Santa Catarina.

How good is this ??? Years do not diminish class. My God, where has our music gone today ?
Rite 🤔
I don't know friend. 80's rocked. I was there. Love this guy's voice.
Down the shitter sadly
There is still great music around...do not lose hope....you just need to look harder thats all. But I feel your pain!!!
We were just so lucky to be there in the 80s....days of a golden age.......
february 2024 - 65 years old - LOVE ICEHOUSE - LOVE this song...Love Down Under Australia - lived there many moons ago.
One of my favorite songs of all time. i'm 62 and I'm still listening...
I agree. Has mesmorized me since 1987.
34 years later and still in love with that voice.
This song is a masterpiece.
It will be heard and appreciated in 100, 200 years.
Edward SF 100200 years yes 👍
I so agree. It sends you far away from this madness.
He's voice is still beautiful
I love that voice. His voice hasn't changed. Here im listening in 2025. Love most of their songs. It's so exciting to hear them now I missed them.
Mas, eles estão vivos ainda??
We loved the 80s, we loved Icehouse and we loved this song. This video shows that great music is ageless and timeless. We enjoyed it, danced to it, listened to it in the car and had a great time doing so. What an amazing song and what great memories it brings. Thank you for that Icehouse.
The finest ICEHOUSE song. And one of the best songs ever written.
i agree. but three semitones down from the original? iva's not THAT old. singing it in F should still be doable.
Totally agree! One of their very best.
Sends tingles down my spine. Was splitting up with my girlfriend at the time so thins song brings me back.
@@pusanghalaw He's in his 60s here. Yes, the high notes are much harder to hit. 30 years does take a toll on the vocal cords. No one at 60, sounds like a 20 or 30 year old.
@@1958Cadillac-v2g james brown and aretha franklin (rip) ALWAYS sang in the same key many decades after.
Iva's voice is still the perfect blend of silk and denim, after all these years he's still got the perfect voice, perfect tones, the so called singers today stand to learn a thing or two about attaining and maintaining a wonderful voice👍🤩👍
Totally agree, one of the all time greatest voices and greatest band.
Great vocals 👌
He sounds so good live. Love the deep and smooth vocals. The music is just flowing so smoothly.
Could play this, BOWIE this is not America and ROXY MUSIC More than this for hours non stop...and be transported back to the best years of my life, when hope for a vibrant future was so strong!
Wait, this isn't David Bowie?
@@gradylucas5265 sounds a bit like him indeed :))
Wow, No promises and More than this would have to be in my top 5. I'll have to give that Bowie song a listen.
Só quem viveu os anos 80 , teve esse privilégio, músicas de qualidade, emoção, hoje degradante
Dou muito valor para essa década de ouro ... não tinha nada tecnologia...as pessoas ouviam música boa o tempo todo. Pessoas dessa época tem outro nível cultural.
Era criança nos anos 80 me lembro de cada música que escuto hoje .. Amooooo todas elas, pq é música de verdade.
Concordo, eu pequei desde 60, 70, 80, 90 são músicas sensacionais e inesquecíveis 😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅
Esse deu aula de como conservar uma voz
His voice is beautiful. A very rich Aussie sound.

One of my Favorite Bands of all times along with Duran Duran, Depeche Mode, Simple Minds and Tears for Fears.
Excellent taste, mate ;)
No coincidence all 80s bands 😬👍
All great bands with truly talented artists!
My favorite bands too!!!
Excelente! O Iva Davies conservou muito bem a voz, ainda soa como nos anos 80!
Que show de profissionalismo do Icehouse música linda o mundo é dos coroas
@ARMANDO RIBEIRO 2 fiquei surpreso também, a voz está um espetáculo.
Iva Davies canta muito sou super fã do ice house!
Não tem isso tudo! Falta um pouquinho para os 40 anos. 1986
A música da minha vida... linda voz.
Concordo com você o mundo é de nós coroa e essa turma dá um show
I am almost 72, still listening to this great band!
Listen kids, this is what real performers sound like 👍
I am a child of the 80s, I have just found Icehouse again ( thank goodness). Iva's voice is still as amazing as it always was infact better. Just love this track.
FORTALEZA - Brazil , pura nostalgia ❤❤❤❤❤❤
What a 80s classic
!!!!!!! Die Zeten sind nur noch in der Erinnerung. Aber so geht es jeder Generation. Das ist der Lauf des Lebens, der sich immer wieder wiederholt..
Manoo.. que SENSACIONAL! Ele continua com o mesmo timbre de voz! Essa canção é ESPETACULAR! Nostalgia pura! 👍🏻😍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I'm speechless! ❤👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Concordo plenamente....
Sei que parece clichê, mas que saudade desta época.
Passou o tempo a voz tá impecável....linda essa música.
cette chanson moi je l'adore aussi et ne doit pas ètre le seul a aimer cette chanson
Icehouse impecable todos que buena música gracias Dios por poder disfrutar esta música.gracias Señor.
Still great like the old times!! What a band...
58, in 2024 alive and one of my favorites songs!
As a Drummer, I can relate to a 4 on the floor kind of groove.
Drums and Bass are the Engine Room of the Band, providing a solid foundation for any given song.
For a song that tells a story, one needs a steady groove that is not dominating, allowing the song to breathe.
Iva has a voice that is rich but yet suttle that is well suited to a song of this style.
I feel that Iva has maintained his voice throughout because he is not a screamer or at least he doesn't feel the need to use to much vocal force when singing.
Every well written song has good dynamics and Iva is a fine example of this.
Well done to Team Icehouse.
Myself,
I'm a versatile musician (Drummer by Trade).
I've had the pleasure of recording & performing along side Tony Llewellyn (former Icehouse keyboards and backing vocals 1991 to 2004).
Tony & I worked together during the 2000's for about 5 years and are still keeping in touch.
Just to end on a note:
Michael Paynter and Man of Colours, Wow.👍
Michael's voice blends really well with the Oboe.
Once again,
Great job, love your work.
Cheers,
Brendan
Awesome version ever 👌🏻, the rhythm of the bass and drum is absolutely devastating wonderful .
Música lindíssima, obrigada por publicar, bons tempos estes👏😍
Linda de mais a meus 16 anos que saudade
a vida era maravilhosa e nao sabiamos...............................
Greetings from a Brazilian fan! This is the song of my life! Long live of ICEHOUCE
I love icehouse they deserved to be bigger or at least as big world wide
As INXS
Simply fantastic, good music equals wine.
Sem palavras.. Viva os anos 80
Listening to this man's voice is like flying to the skies...Amazing baritone!

Still Awesome after 40 years...This Great Southern Land is so proud of our ICEHOUSE 🇦🇺

56 and this song brings back so many memories of young love at 16😊
This is just beautiful! OUR IVA......you are PHENOMENAL! WE LOVE YOU!❤

Fantasy / black box en la version extendida tambien es excelente
Probably among the best songs of '80
Muito bom, Icehouse! Marcou minha geração, esse som NO PROMISES! NÃO CANSO DE OUVIR.
One of the greatest songs ever!!!
I´m impressed! The same Voice since more than 40 Years! And it will take me away!

Bloody oath!
One of the top songs from the 80's and all time for that matter

Como foi maravilhoso ter vivido a década de 80!
Hoje eu tenho histórias boas para contar e momentos inesquecíveis para recordar!
Penso da mesma forma. Não existe e nunca existirá melhor época.
The composition on this should be required listening for all scholars.
Serious.
Few bands are superb live, This is Great.
The voice still amazing!
Mein Respekt, tolle Stimme, super Sound, nach so vielen Jahren ...... Danke
Estou em Navegantes, BRASIL, com quase 60 anos ouvindo novamente essa banda maravilhosa dos anos 80, década de ouro da música em todo o mundo.
The song No promises is undoubtedly one of the great songs of the 20th century. We are in the 21st century and there is still no song that surpassed No promises.
I actually do not know how many times I need to listen to this song to feel that good music was done in the past days
This is a fantastic version of a perfect song!
Icehouse excelente banda ochentera,sin duda una de las mejores, marcó una época distinta dónde casi todas las canciones de esos años eran tremendas composiciones,todas buenas !!..Grande Icehouse ! Sigan vigentes por muchos años más...
Saw this live and it's undoubtedly one of the most incredible performances
The same vibe after 40 years! Great! Thank you for sharing it!
That voice,,,that sound…that face. Perfection!
Grande Iva Davies! Saudações de São Benedito CE. Orgulho de ser 80s
Another 80's Australian band I slept on...and wishing I hadn't.
Amo essa canção.
WOW and double WOW. Just happened upon this. Loved Icehouse in the 80s. And dear Iva's voice is STILL there. Glory be!!
Sounds amazing, and Iva Davies still has great hair 😎 💕
Just love these guys still going
