Lyrics
I walk along the avenue
I never thought I'd meet a girl like you
Meet a girl like you
With auburn hair and tawny eyes
The kind of eyes that hypnotize me through
Hypnotize me through
And I ran
I ran so far away
I just ran
I ran all night and day
I couldn't get away
A cloud appears above your head
A beam of light comes shining down on you
Shining down on you
The cloud is moving nearer still
Aurora Borealis comes in view
Aurora comes in view
And I ran
I ran so far away
I just ran
I ran all night and day
I couldn't get away
Reached out a hand to touch your face
You're slowly disappearing from my view
Appearing from my view
Reached out a hand to try again
I'm floating in a beam of light with you
A beam of light with you
And I ran
I ran so far away
I just ran
I ran all night and day
And I ran
I ran so far away
I just ran
I couldn't get away
A Flock Of Seagulls lineup:
Mike Score - vocals, keyboards, guitar
Pando - bass guitar, backing vocals
Gordon Deppe - guitar, backing vocals
Kevin Rankin - drums
Jesus, it's been 41 years since I first watched them on MTV. It's crazy how 41 years just flashed by. Man, the 80's, what a time to be alive. No matter how much our society has gone down the drain, I'll always have my memories of the 80's. If I had only one wish, I'd wish that my life could be put on repeat from 1978 - 1989 and live there forever. Those were the magic years for me. I lived them, I loved them, I miss them.
I agree fully
Me too ! 👍🍻
Will def go with you
@@davidplatten9872I envy you for living in such an amazing decade/era
Eu também 🇧🇷
I miss the 80s. Used to love this song. Had just left school and had a job, was beginning to make my way in life. Times were Good
Best time ever
What a completely absurd story!
@@grantt6573 Outrageously bad!
@@hinterwelter why's it absurd
nobody can play that famous riff like Paul...... where's Paul?
Paul was a unique guitarist for a synth band , he is a highly skilled guitarist and capable of some serious guitarist
I heard he was so young, yet he had composure.
@@jonathanmol4489 Paul was very young - just 17 years old when he joined Flock of Seagulls as lead guitarist. He quit the band in 1984 before the band officially broke up almost a year later. Paul stated that he was under constant stress and too young for "the rock and roll lifestyle"
@@IRIDEHARLEYS For a young kid, I think he did incredibly well. Like Steve Vai joining Frank Zappa at 19.
@@jonathanmol4489 Talent wise he did fine. He stated he was exhausted both physically, mentally, emotionally and felt he probably shouldn't have done it. It took a toll on him for a long time. Some people are better suited for it than others.
@@IRIDEHARLEYS I only have knowledge of video. He looked great in the original version. I had no idea he was so young until 4 yrs ago, and that song came out 36 yrs ago? A big hit song is wonderful! I'm sure everyone was thinking they were on a path? His guitar and the drummer made that sound, imho!
A Flock Of Seagulls
I saw them live in the 80's and they signed my LP Album by the Band.
Still have the record in mint Condition no scratches. i love this band.
Freaking cool
GENIAL 👍
Its not even close to the dynamics of the original .. But I'll give them credit for attempting to recreate the magic
Yeah,,, compared to that of `82 this sounds a wee-bit flat.
Guitar is terrible in comparison to Paul Reynolds
@@beardedsparks2825 the guitar playing sounds almost identical.. even though the original guitarist died young, he was easily replaceable. He's not a Page, Beck, SRV, Gilmour, Hendrix,etc....shit, even when Ozzy had to replace Randy Rhodes because he died, they did just as well as Randy.
I feel the opposite, I think the band is really great here, but Mike is horrible and drags it down by not even attempting to sing, he’s just shouting the lyrics, it’s awful.
@@michaelsuder486 _"even though the original guitarist died young..."_ ??? Are you talking about Paul Reynolds? If so, Paul Reynolds is still alive and yes, the guitar *_DOES_* sound terrible. This guy plays sloppy, out of time and can't even be bothered to adjust the timing on his echo/delay pedal to sound accurate. Sounds as if he barely learned the song 5 minutes before going onstage from some poorly played UA-cam cover video.
Still a great song but the original band rocked this
From the looks of the lead singer I'd say they should rename the song to "I walked (a very short distance)" because I don't think he could run anywhere no matter how hard he tried.
I miss the 80’s so bad, good times!
Loved it when it came out.... I'm old. Still sounds good today!!!
Man,you are old if you feel old.
I'm turning 53 this year and still feel like 35.
@@TexasChilliMassacre Hahaha!! Yeah I know.... I'm 52!
1982 was the best year hands down...
Agreed. New Gold Dream by Simple Minds - probably the best synth album I have ever heard.
1984 begs to differ
@@thedudeabiding1582 Good point but so much of the 80's was good it's hard to claim one year as the best. Although '84 did have a larger number of hits and albums from top performers.
yes loved it was 17 glad to be young then
Brings back great memories as an 18 year old...pubs..clubbing.. fashion & the music...having said that was also a load of crap in the charts...I Ran...classic 80's...👍🏾
Shite. Reynolds was the heart and sole of this band.
Nobody in the comments seems to have noticed that the guitarist is from another legendary (in Canada) 80's new wave band as well. That's Gordon Deppe, lead singer of the band The Spoons (Nova Heart, Romantic Traffic etc..) They never broke outside of Canada, but were huge in Canada, as big as Flock of Seagulls themselves were. It's always strange to see these mash-ups of 80's bands doing the Casino tours always with a couple of original members mixed together.
Meh, they should have got the lead guitarist from 1983 era men at work.
He ain't no Paul Reynolds
Gordon Deppe filled that huge gap from the original guitarist. Love his sound!
Romantic traffic beautiful song 🎼 🇨🇦 💕
Gonna listen to some romantic traffic now thanks
Saw them when they opened for the Go-Go’s 1982 at the Coliseum in Bloomington MN. Crazy good opening act
Saw the same tour in Norfolk I was in the marines was Sept 14th day after my birthday
@@ohiodemocraticpartydisabil6760 it was a great tour wasn’t it? I remember being all hot and sweaty from dancing to Flock of Seagulls, then the Go-Go’s took the stage and the place fucking exploded. What a great first concert experience!
Needs more bass....... much, much more BASS!!!!
Great band, Mike is fit & trendy still no hair tho. I've always loved this band ❤
No reyno no flock.
No maudsley no flock.
No Ali, no flock.
It's like watching a cover band. This sucks. I can see this in any club any night of the week. How dare you call this a flock of seaguls. Its a rip off!
Song seems to be missing all the original magic especially Paul Reynolds - it just feels like a Tribute Band
I love This band since 1983 the Roland synth my favorite.
I have have loved this group since I was a kid of 18. Good times good times. . .
Fuegoo es este Flocks... Sensacional actuación..sonido cósmico 🙏😍🔥!!
Son mis ídolos desde que era adolescente a hora a mis cincuenta sigo escuchándolos
Somos 2💯💥 amigo!
@@peleador8856 Tengo casi 50 y de niños ellos fueron (y lo siguen siendo) mis ídolos. Estas canciones estuvieron adelantadas a su época, y siguen ahora muy vigentes. Saludos.
Sin paúl Reynolds no me agrada la banda ninguno como el con la guitarra.
ha, saw them back in 82, they looked a bit different, but then again....so did I......!
The band has gone through several formations since 1982, there were reunions with the original line-up, but it never went forward because of fights, which was the same thing that kept them apart, nowadays they are only the vocalist of the original line-up, but the band it is more united today than it was then.
1982 was 39 years ago . . Can't stay young forever . . . I'm just glad they still sing great .
A sound and guitar sound for eternity. Not much can compete with that!!! I would describe myself as a rock & pop veteran of the 70's and 80's. Here's a tip: Golden Earring "Kill Me (Ce Soir)" - also very underrated.
A classic rock and roll song 🎸
Unfortunately not the original....... ok....... but always THE BEST!!!!!!!!
Why did Flock of Seagulls never play in Tehran? Because Iran's so far away.
omggggggggg
Saw them at the Lyceum 82 with the famous haircut blue zoo were ment to play as well but they just hit the charts
TRIBUTE ACT
On keyboards is the genuine lead singer.
I was there the 3 set Amazing! all musician and over the top the guitar and the drummer super cool ,so I hope this year I be there again , Thank you for this video well dome
Oh my gosh, that was awesome!!
the only thing that ran,, was his hair.....................
Where’s the rest of the band? No Paul on guitar. This is a joke.
I love it!
Goosebumps!
Anos80 que saudades 😎🫡
Saw them at Magic Mountain in the 80s.
someone threw a drink on stage and it landed on his keyboard. He was not happy.
Turned out to be a great show.
Om I'm so sorry
Where's Paul Reynolds?
A Paul Reynolds he will never be.
❤
Love AFOS & the Spoons! So great to see Gord Dieppe playing guitar with them but still wish the original members would be touring with them! Miss Ali, Paul & Frank!
Incredible creation!!! this song is perfect!! a great charge of energy! I love it and love them!!!
Damn I had a eargasm ❤
Legends
Forty years ago today, this superb album came out. Wow!! These dudes should have been huge. An Anniversary tour would hit the spot!! 🎤🎹🎸🥁🕺🥰
This particular song WAS huge - - it remains one of the seminal and defining cultural touchstones of the 1980's and New Wave rock.
They are awesome!
👍
Espectacular..vivan los 80s
Brings back childhood memories for sure!
amazing !!
Saw them 1982 Dillons on Sunset Blvd. HOLLYWOOD CALIFORNIA. ANYBODY ELSE THERE?
Is that Gord Deppe from The Spoons playing guitar?
Yeah, is he
Sorry but that lead guitarist is no Paul Reynolds. His guitar play is mediocre at best. I wish Mike didn't put this group together with him as the sole original member of TFLOS
BRASIL 👍👍👍👍💃💃 show
Can these bands with one original member or no original members just go away. No Paul Reynolds, not really A Flock of Seagulls.
❤❤❤❤❤
Damn still sound as good almost 40 yrs later as they did in the 80s some bands have lost it . They still got it . Sweet
AWESOME
Its hell getting old!
Damn straight!
Que bacan
Whitout PAUL REYNOLDS , it is NooooooooT the same , he is still the Best in the Guitar.
the guitar sound is horrible - I like the tune, but it can't be THAT hard to reproduce the original album sound is it?
Passam as décadas e esse som continua atual... Foram além, muito além do seu tempo... 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Age yourself with a song: I Ran came out 1 year before I was born :)
Con todo respeto, pero que versión tan mal ejecutada, no entiendo por qué si es muy buen músico.
I didn't know Leif Garret played drums for the flock
We’ve all gotten so old. Sad!
Paul fue el que le dio el toque magico con su guitarra y su carisma de bajo perfil .
Is it just me or is Mike Score built like Dr.Nefario from Despicable Me?
Strange times were a part of the environment in the 80's; but music was eclectic and the "Seagulls" were all that and talented as well!
Mike had great hair in the early 80`s when I saw the FOS live.All gone
Excelente performance
Props to the drummer, like clockwork.
The heavier guitar they had was better I don't remember his name
Eu amoooooo from brazil ❣️
I like the guitar player's band The Spoons.
The drummer ruined the song with the hi hats..... This was just awful
Iran isn't so far away these days with cheap plane tickets.
Cool ..... !
Looks like Right said Fred and pitbull had a love child....
I love this band....it defines my youth the 80s the best decade in history...🎤🎤🎤🎸🎸🎸💚
I agree the 80s was the best decade. But can't say I was a big fan of this group.
@@jellybean2068 ..Agree I wasn't a big fan...thanks to Mike Score mullet @ the time......but I Ran...WOW..!!!!!!
This is painfull to listen when you compare it with the 80ies 😱
Alas, the ravages if time. I got old with you, brother.
Yeah!!!
horrible
Me just chillin in WARZONE
First time hearing this pure class
Banda BRAVA con un poco desgaste por los años pero en si lo único que le falta al cantante es el PELO , tanto cabello que tenía que ya no le queso NADA , DE ALLI EN MAS SIGUEN XANTANDO Y TOCANDO COMO CUANDO ESTABAN JOVENES EN LOS 80 S ,, GRACIAS POR EL VIDEO CONGRATULACIONES A TODO EL GRUPO , al parecer ya no toca la guitarra PAULO REYNOLDS , TKS AGS, MEX .
He should’ve wore a wig :(
I'm sorry but that was horrible.
Soundman is wrong for setting the bass level to 2 smhh
Wow that sounds like hot garbage. Time to retire/
The lead guitarist is no Paul Reynolds but not too bad though
Where is my Ryan gosling????? Find me man
Shame it isnt the orginal Line up........
Que buena 🎼 mis años maravillosos 🙏
sin Paul no hay banda ..... no me gusta 🙃🙃🙃
Well,the quality is more than shitty...😕
The best
Paul Reynolds better
