    I took the girl of my dreams to see Pretty in pink, we got married and had three children. I lost her eleven years ago and my heart has never been the same. This song has been one of my favorites for many years.

      Right? I too, shared this with someone I loved. He let me go. I still look back fondly on this. But we can't let it affect our lives anymore..We gotta strive to find happiness elsewhere. And when you do, you'll probably regret pondering and wasting your time so much over this person.
      BUT...who knows? If they come back, it must've been true all along? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      I'll see you and raise you a decade just turned 76 in December and have been loving this song since it was released. By All Rights I should have been well out of the demographic even when it was released, but something about this song just really grabbed me back then. 80s music turned out to be pretty damn good. It took me a long time to realize that in fact I used to make fun of'80s music and then one day I went through all of my hundreds of tapes both store-bought and things I stole from the air with my remote control activated Deluxe tape recorder back in the 80s and I'll be damned if I didn't have more music from the '80s than anything else. I should be totally fixated on music of the '60s which I am because that's more my youth time but the 80s were a great time for me I had a great job, a beautiful girlfriend who was a lunatic in the very real sense
      I was 39 freaking years old when this was released. Speaking of songs from the '80s anybody here remember It's My Life by talk talk? One of dozens and dozens of Kick-Ass songs from the '80s. I practically had a second childhood in the eighties. Maybe it's because my girlfriend was 27.

It was only on the last day of this vacation that we gathered all our courage and spoke to each other. I only touched her briefly, it was magical. The time was up, we had to go. We promised to meet next year at the youth camp again. How life is like that, in the following year there was no youth camp anymore. We never saw each other again.

      Then bring it back! There’s no reason you can’t live as if it were still the 80s. I wasn’t born until after they ended, but I still wear double denim and listen to Kajagoogoo on full blast. If you truly love a decade, those no reason to miss it, you just have to live it. There’s far to many people complaining these days about how they want to go back to the 80s, but unknown to them, they don’t need a time machine, they just need a bit of inspiration.

      @@hattiecadwell6605 I disagree. I think it’s easy to look back on the good parts of each decade, and in the case of the 80s that’s the music, fashion and film. But there were plenty of problems as well. Reagan’s America, Thatcher’s Britain, 35% unemployment rate where I would’ve lived. The war on drugs, the start of trickle-down economics, much more homophobia, transphobia and racism that nowadays. I’m just happy we can still party to the music from that time without all the crap that originally came with it.
