Yeah. They're more than 25 years old so they're less expensive to buy for a commercial. Also, people who are old enough to remember "their" music are more likely to buy stuff that has "their" music in the commercials. It ain't rocket surgery, nor is it because 80's music is just SO DAMN AMAZING. I love the music of my childhood, but it isn't the BEST MUSIC EVAH.
@@SPCLPONY And yet, I'm not wrong. Who needs "deep knowledge?" Also, I never pretended to be anything, nor did I say I was anything. I know what you are, though.
I'm in a department store , bored waiting for my wife, and after hearing this song I'm happy again, and I realized why I'm supporting this waiting , Because I love her !!!
Do you think my wife would go to a game with me or a round of golf or even maybe pickup the ps4 controller she wanted and game with me for awhile ,,but I'l wait in that shopping center with her till the cows come home
Huey's songs make me happy like no other kind of music. Hall & Oates and The Cars come pretty damn close too. Just something about that magical 80s sound.
I put these guys ahead of 99% of the artists today. There's some good ones out there but Huey Lewis & The News was rich with talent. So many great songs.
@@somedumbozzie1539 yeah the way they ooo wah ooo woah during if this is it really hit me and then the if this is it harmonies at the end. I love that song
This sort of thing happened all the time in the 80's. Women would wake up in the middle of the night and be startled to see a band singing to them. Sometime it was Huey Lewis and the News, sometimes it was Duran Duran, sometimes it was Tears for Fears. If you were really unlucky, you might get Alice Cooper or Taco. And then the bands would finish their song and wander off into the night or sometimes stay for breakfast as in this video. Those were the good days.
@angel DOJC nawww you're a romantic, not many left, wishing ya all the best Angel, if I didn't already have a girlfriend I would ask to meet up to play some old soppy romantic songs for ya..
The loose women and non-emissions V8 vehicles, automatic weapons all you can buy, cheap gold and cheap land!!! Take me back to the days of photographs.
Always loved the harmonies in this song. Kudos to Mutt Lange for writing a beautiful song and utilizing the individual talents of this band to great effect.
Recorded this song off the radio with my cassette boombox back in the day. But I was today years old when I learned that Mutt Lange wrote this song. Whoah....
This band is awesome.I remember them when they first came onto the music scene in the 1980's. I was about 14 when i first heard 'Power of Love' and loved it.
THANK YOU Mr.Dickman for sharing this song with me this morning love this song ever since my teacher Mr dickman had show me this song he shared me this song to me in my phone
Although Huey Lewis had been around for several years by this time, "Do You Believe In Love" was his career changing anthem, and what made him the legend he became.
Watching a old rerun of WKRP In Cincinnati and a snippet of this song came on. I just had to take a trip down memory lane. Great song and great memories.
murphyjones100 Reminds me of Def Leppard harmonies, which is ironic because I read that Robert Mutt Lange (who produced for Def Leppard in the 80s) wrote this song.
1982. My final year in school and coming home with some mates from a school camp there was THIS. I loved it instantly. And I still do. Catchy song, great harmony, - what's not to like?
They totally deserve to be in the ROCK & ROLL HALL OF FAME! They truly do deserve to be in! They have been around for over 40 years!!! If it wasn’t for Hueys hearing issue they would still be touring!!!!!! They have so many iconic songs and everyone from the 80’s knows them! They NEED TO BE IN THE Hall!!!!
YES !!!! huey is deaf and it is sad . he had to quit touring . you cannot think of the 80s without huey crossing your mind . love you huey lewis and the news .
@@lyricmannixon1793 he’s not completely deaf. It’s more like tone deaf and when he tries to sing he gets dizzy and can’t hear the pitch! At times it’s intense and he can’t hear a thing. But it comes and goes. He can still hear and talk to people so that’s a good thing. Phil Collins had this but his went away. Let’s hope it goes away for Huey as well. But at least he’s not completely deaf. He just can’t perform on stage anymore. But maybe someday he will be able to. I’ll Be there if he can.
And this came off an album that Huey Lewis commented about the album saying his description of its success was: almost there!! It wasn't until their next album sports that really put them on the map in the '80s rock and roll history.
@@christosstamato527 He's talking about this song's similarities to Sweet Talkin' Woman by ELO; if anyone ripped off ELO, though, it was Mutt Lange who wrote the song and originally recorded it with his band Supercharge...
This is one of the very few Huey Lewis and The News songs that actually bring a tear to my eye. I was about ten years old when this song came out. It was way back in 1982, I believe.
Not even close to being correct .... this single was released at the beginning of 1982 .... it was the first single from their 'Picture This' LP, which was their 2nd album. It had never been released before ..... it IS reminiscent of the 1978 song 'Sweet Talkin' Woman', by ELO, but ..... totally different song.... @@terencehernandez9646

Try telling me the wee ooh's at the end doesn't fit like a glove ,,,,as much as I love the song I can never wait for the wee ooh's at the end to join in ,,,,who would think of such a thing ,,pure genius
This is one of the best choruses in any song ever written. The rest of the band having the spotlight for the main hook was a spark of genius and it still stands out today as one of the best showcases of a band in all of music. The backing vocals were always as strong as the music, and that's one of the things that made this band so great. I will always love HL&TN! Some of the best music ever recorded.
Thank you huey lewis and the news music male group band for this song this is nice romantic love song thanks a lot i always loved this song my teacher in my high school Mr.Dickman had share me this song had introduced me to this song ever since i had heard this song i feel in love with this song thank you My Teacher Mr.Dickman for this song today this morning this is my favorite band too as well. i am in high school now i still love this song
The world will never see a band like this again. I remember playing these songs and waiting for the videos to tape them. I saved those VHS tapes for years, there was no other way to watch them. I miss those days of my life and people that I knew then.
Hahaha fucking brilliant. Yeah this song came on the radio when I was at a party an this chick came over an we hit it off. When the words "do you believe in love?!" Came blasting out of the stereo she gave me this look, then i grinned like a possum as I planted one on her. Next thing i remember was waking up with a beauty next to me. Good stuff
God, they were SO good. My favorite HLN song and Picture This my favorite HLN album. Their lean and mean days. I saw them 3 times in their heyday in the 80’s. Heartbreaking that Huey can’t perform anymore.
I've never stopped believing in the 80s! And Huey? Well what can I say? VERY special dude who helped make 80s music what it was!! And to me that becomes more understated about him with each passing year.
Anyone here from Ghosts? This was the first Huey Lewis song I ever heard and I became such a fan. It's been a few years since I've listened to any of their songs. I'm going to listen to some right now ❤
I love this song. --- [1] This is the sweetest, most melodic, & best of all of Huey Lewis & The News' wonderful & numerous hits. "Do You Believe In Love" has a syrupy sweet melody & some of the best tight, up-front, multi-part vocal harmonies in all of rock. --- [2] This song has lots of excellent simple triad vocal harmonies. However, quite interestingly, a fair amount of the vocal harmonies are not just these simple triads, but are in some nice minor 7th vocal triads. --- [3] Indeed in rock, there are not a lot of simple triad vocal harmonies. However, in rock, you hardly ever see minor 7th vocal triads. Really cool. --- [4] This is the best of many great Huey Lewis songs. Richard
@@rommee You are so correct, such a beautiful sound. OK, the following is a bit music technical/geeky, but bear with me. --- [1] I just did a quick analysis of the "photograph" phrase in the bridge. --- [2] Just prior to "photograph", it seems that the background harmony singers sing an E major triad with the B (the E major triad's 5th) on top. --- [3] On "photograph", they go to a B major 7th quadriad (chord) & with the Bb (the B major 7th's major 7th) on top. --- [4] A major 7th chord is so rich sounding because of the audio/sound tension between the root & the major 7th (one-half of a step from each other) playing simultaneously. --- [5] In most rock songs, a major 7th chord is not frequently used. However, it does show up every so often, just like here at "photograph". Thanks.
Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humour.
爽やかな曲№１です。
大学１年の時に流行って、よく聞いていた。今でもよく聞く好きな曲。
コーラス・キーボード・サックスの割り振りがいい。出だしからキーボードが出て底流を潜航する。途中のコーラスとギターの交互に入るところ。サビでサックス。あの時代の空気を感じ取れる１曲。
I wanna go back.
EPIC 1980'S FOREVER
My favorite video of Huey Lewis and the news too and doing it all for my baby
This song has aged very well. Still sounds great.
agree
Yes it does .
its 2022 40 years later and this song still rocks yeah
Yep! Just heard it in Kroger.
Had to come give it a listen...
Such good memories.
All Huey Lewis stuff is for all the ages.

There's a reason so many songs from the 80' s are used in today's movies and

They don’t write songs like they back in the 70’s & 80’s. Luv this music!
This music makes me so happy. I sure do miss the 1980's. Best decade of my life.
Same here. The 80s were so much fun!
I woke up after surgery and said "80s rule‼️" I have no idea where that came from but it's so true 🥰
I wish I joined ya!
Me too, I think everything was better in the 80’s , and everyone was nice to everyone
Brings the happy to me too agreed.
The ONLY Huey Lewis and The News song that makes me cry
Huey's songs make me happy like no other kind of music. Hall & Oates and The Cars come pretty damn close too. Just something about that magical 80s sound.
Dude I thought I was gonna marry Daryl Hall I 84😂😂😂
80s Daryl was hot af so I don't blame you
I feel the same way!
Yes

From about 1982 thru 1986 it was mandatory for all rock albums to have at least 3 sax solos.
One of greatest songs ever! ❤
in my top 10...ABBA,Styx are in there too
Goodness. What an Oldie. The 80's come back.
Loved this band when I was a teenager.
Who still hears this song?
Bring memory
For sure
I do.
Every single day.

It’s Mutt Lange, that’s why 🔥
Yeah... I do believe in love and in the 80s !
I was I Jr.High when this song came out & it was at the top for a while, great video👍
One of the best pop tunes ever. Catchy melody, super tight harmonies, saxophone, Huey's voice-- somehow husky and smooth at the same time.
Always the 80s still rocks

Huey Lewis will always be my favorite band of the 80's. great music and the best music videos. They had fun.
Huey Lewis is truly talented. This song really makes you feel how simple and good life used to be during the 80's. Trust me, I was there.
