It was 1985. She took my hand and pulled me into an empty office, and looking into my eyes an marking every word she asked me with an annoyed voice: "What do I have to do so you love me?" This song came through the door from the radio; I gently grabbed her waist and told her: "Just one thing, prove to me you can dance a slow one". With a wicked smile she slowly placed her soft velvet hands on my shoulders and we started moving to the rythm of this beat. I could see in her eyes she was already seeing the future. Then, very smoothly our lips found each other and I can say they haven't gotten appart since then. It's 2022 now.
Amazing! Heart FILLING❤💞 not everyone who enters your life is meant to stay ....... Just a part, chapter ~ part of your journey even if nothing more then a memory that makes u smile. I love everything about it.$,&@>!!
Been there too, for years walking with one person in my heart, excluding any other option. Even willing to grow old alone, feeling married in my soul but eventually I woke up and I'm free from him now. I took distance too from the idea he was the only one to understand and respect me. Started dating and I learned that I have a choice in life to accept an illusion or reality and I am allowed to live my life, enjoy love instead of being a prisoner just because of one person.
Sometimes love hurts so bad, you cry yourself to sleep. But time heals all wounds. But, there's always that one piece of your heart that can never be the same.
I dont know what it is about 80s music. It has so much meaning and always a clear story, it has well produced sound and amazing vocals... there isnt anything like it anymore. I love it so much.
:/ as a water fire person... I too think of storms. Heartbreak overload sounds like some sh I would say, as well. I just always thought this sounded sad, pretty, & soothing all at once 🤷♀️. Heard an interview w/ Rob Thomas describing the ages as," 20s is when you think u know everything. 30s is when u realize you don't. 40s is when you do something about it." Something like that. Word? If he said something about the 50s age, I conveniently skipped out on that part in my head. Bc, just bc. I got awhile to go before 50. That's y
Bob Cooper 💔 I miss you everyday since age 18 every single day I loved and still do everyday since I met you at age 13. I have been sad inside since you left at age 18. I never wanted anyone else but I tryed to. When I realized at age 48 you never where wanting me more than a friend I was grateful to have you back as that and just continue to love you behind your back but when you left again. This song sings it. I just want you in my life. I love you to much to not have you even as a friend. I miss you and love you forever.
This wonderful song got me through a very difficult period of dealing with the most difficult breakup of my life. Every word and note went right to my heart and soul and helped me cope and heal. Thanks to you always, John Waite. Long Life. to you.
The heart has a mind of its own, no matter how many times I’ve tried to use my mind to know better..., this ole heart seems to win every time. Years have come & gone and I’m older now....but still... The heart knows what it feels....still💋 (I’ve got the best real- love stories....through the years & tears..., we live oceans apart now, both married with families, but never never underestimate the power of real true love ❤️💔🎵)
"And there's a message that I'm sending out, like a telegraph to your soul" And the message was this song... I wonder how the person who inspired this song felt the first time she heard it. I would have been in tears!
hey brother, I hope you're doing alright now, don't let someone who's moved one get you down, you'll always have a special place in someone else's life, but I know how it is and I feel you man
This song is so beautiful. Yes when lovers get away from each other due to some reasons. True love always haunts the heart. It's very painful to miss a loved one . Amazing song. Thank you for sharing.
Die 80'er formten unsere Generation. Es war eine mega geile Zeit und so eine wird es wohl nie wieder geben. Ich bin heute glücklich, dass ich das erleben durfte. Dafür danke ich Gott, diese Zeit erlebt zu haben
You make it seem like it's a bad thing that many people including myself came from Vice City? it's a game with damn good music. You should check it out for yourself.
I'd be honored if some fans of 80s power ballads would check out my acoustic piano & vocal cover of Phil Collins' AGAINST ALL ODDS on my channel. Real live acoustic with no autotune. Thanks and please excuse the promo.
Written in 10 min, in the studio. Because side two of the cassette had empty time on it! & in that ten minutes made the best song on the album! That's talent!
it's like a long lasting memory ( or even a FOREVER) memory isn't it? though days, weeks, months and years go by, it only takes hearing a song, or even looking at something just jumps into our heads it just brings on that same feeling and memories, don't it?
@@brendahawkins3965 It's different than what I was expecting from the way it sounds above, but it's a very pleasant change! The best part that I like is how he stretches and enunciates lyrics more clearly than the original.
Joshua P Fingerle thank you so much for your nice comments. Josh has covered a few old classics. I hope you might subscribe and take a look at some of them. Really appreciating the comments you have 😊
@@brendahawkins3965 That's really awesome! I am actually doing 80s covers myself but I uploaded them only to Facebook so far because I didn't want to show my face on something as wide and public as UA-cam. I think it is okay/safe to do now that I think about it now
Not even missing somebody... Missing my old self before depression set in and made me a lonely, cold, single man. I listen to this and think of all the fun I had as a child and now I'm an adult in 2023 and the world sucks so bad.
I like this song because of how mixed the emotions are. Is this a song about someone in denial or is it someone moving forward? I could never figure it out.
Try Whistling This Well it's quite interesting, it is up to debate but I believe the answer to your question is really in the title and at the end of the song. But that is the beauty of music, and in extent, poetry; you can interpret anything how you want.
Try Whistling This to me it sounds like someone trying to convince them self that they don't miss someone but really do miss someone, they are lying to them self of the loss
Debonaire Nerd I think he does. I think it's when he says he's not missing her, but he really is. "no matter what my friends say" well if his friends didn't truly believe this why would they tell her he's missing her? are they trying to start shit? lol. and then at the end where he says "I ain't missing you. I keep lying to myself." the way i see it he literally just said he's lying to himself about not missing her. just my take
Word on this song is, he wrote this because his wife at the time divorced him. Apparently, she didn't want to move to New York. So she told him she was divorcing him. He wrote this song about how he was feeling about her. Think she had to be crazy to do what she did, imho....
I got kicked out the House at 15 and took a 1way flight from the Northern California to Houston and met the girl of my dreams. I would return home to never see her again this ones for you my one and only
I never get tired listening to this beautiful tune. John Waite did a great job here. Tina Turner had a nice cover of this song so equally powerful as John's. I love them both.
That was really good songs with a lot of real feelings. Where are the good old songs 😪 so easy but so nice. Who else is missing somebody in his/her life?
awake all night again and this song came to mind..it hurts so much at times..its been 12 years and still the same ...i trust no one and feel so alone.grown man and crying my eyes out AGAIN!
I'm a 2000s kid, but when I was younger, my dad had this tape. And it had this song on it, plus a bunch of other hits from the 80s. And I'd just replay that tape in the car over and over.... so listening to this brings a lot of memories.
We AIN'T MISSING Our Good Loved Ones They Will Always be With Us. We AIN'T MISSING THIS GOOD 80S SONG EVER! WE WILL NEVER FORGET THIS GOOD 80S SONG. WE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER THIS GOOD 80S SONG AND WE WILL ALWAYS KEEP PLAYING AND KEEP LOVING THIS GOOD 80S SONG! 👍🙂
alcohol doesnt suit me.. but tobacco does.. so i burn my cigarettes, then listen to this song.. then thinking about someone i love so much... but i cant have it together with her
I was a teenager in the 1970's.....the 1980's was when I stopped following rock music.....but ..wow....the 1980's went out with a bang...like this song.....
I'm 27 and I love 80s music. I can't stop listening to this song. They sure don't make music like this anymore.
Well done
Jesus Garcia yup I'm 25 and love 80s music
i'm 16 and can't get enough of it
Im only 3 years old and I like this shit already!!
I'm 14 and I'm a big 80s nerd 😂😆
2020 anyone?? Love this song!
Same here
kp?
Listen now 2020 Feb
♥️🤘
Takes me places that is just mine to remember. 😊 Never gets old.
It was 1985.
She took my hand and pulled me into an empty office, and looking into my eyes an marking every word she asked me with an annoyed voice: "What do I have to do so you love me?"
This song came through the door from the radio; I gently grabbed her waist and told her: "Just one thing, prove to me you can dance a slow one".

That is so awesome young man. ❤❤❤
Beautiful
Wow
Love this💛
Lucky guy wish that happened to me, she's left
It's 2021 and this is still a brilliant tune. Always brings to mind a certain person that I will never get over. What a heartbreaking song this is.
Amazing!
Heart FILLING❤💞 not everyone who enters your life is meant to stay
.......
Just a part, chapter ~ part of your journey even if nothing more then a memory that makes u smile.
I love everything about it.$,&@>!!
Yep😎
That song means the same to me as it does you!
You too huh? I love songs with meaning good or bad.
Been there too, for years walking with one person in my heart, excluding any other option. Even willing to grow old alone, feeling married in my soul but eventually I woke up and I'm free from him now. I took distance too from the idea he was the only one to understand and respect me.

It's 2019 and 35 years after the release of the song, and I am still listening it. This has to be the one of the best songs I have ever heard.
Kenneth Ng , me too! It's just as good as it was back then.
Kenneth Ng if not, the best!
It never fails. Some songs are just forever.
Gian Franco Villalta hell yeah it can be sometimes
nothing fades.. memories stay, feelings stay.. all because you terribly miss someone.
@Aurea go get him back then
anwjuice go get who Back
It hurts.
My god. It feels Terrible
@Aurea it sucks but so true
This will always be the ultimate heartbreak song. I know all of those feels.
Such a classic .. no matter what genre of music you love. His voice, the lyrics and the simple music riffs adds to its success.
I dont know what it is about 80s music. It has so much meaning and always a clear story, it has well produced sound and amazing vocals... there isnt anything like it anymore. I love it so much.

Hi Kim💐💐
I loved the 80's! I played this music! Long hair and straight leg Levi's! Lol! God bless those days!

Paula Breen There is always that one love that you can't forget.
You will know it when you get loved by someone like Michael and myself.
It's the brain! The heart is nothing but a muscle.
Aawwww I realized your true love may not be the one you're married with or you are with right now.
That's messed up...for ur husband and his wife...🤔
The saddest part in my life is when the person who give you memories become a memory😥😥😥😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
@Louise L yeah! i'm always believe in God

Same here.... I felt that too brother 😔😥😥😥

not only one of the greatest one hit wonders of all time, but one of the best songs ever ever!!!!!!!!
I hear your name in certain circles and it ALWAYS makes me smile! I spend my time thinking about you and it’s almost driving me wild.
I'm living this song at this exact moment in my life. Pain never hurt me like love did.
This is one of the best song's ever in my opinion, it is so deep!!!!
when you still love someone you can never get back
Tell me about it. 😢
I can feel your situation...
It's so hard even now
Dangit 💯😥😥😥😥 🙌 yes ... Ugh it hurts bad
It’s funny cause this song’s meaning about about how he’s moved on and doesn’t miss her anymore, but yet it still seems like he misses her
People who know this song has a good taste in music
😊
I've always heard this song somewhere in my life...but today I listened to the lyrics and appreciate it on another level.
Yes!!! Reminds me of a very special person in Deland Florida❤❤❤
"And there's a message that I'm sending out, like a telegraph to your soul"
And the message was this song...
I wonder how the person who inspired this song felt the first time she heard it. I would have been in tears!
I'm here cause it's 3am..and I've woke up with someone on my mind who has moved on with someone else...this was the song that spoke to my soul.
The Ref I hope you're doing better now.
Dam bro said u woke up at 3am thinking bout a chick...fuck dat bitch bro..that's how u gotta feel
Bruh saaaame...it hurts💔
I feel it
hey brother, I hope you're doing alright now, don't let someone who's moved one get you down, you'll always have a special place in someone else's life, but I know how it is and I feel you man
A timeless master piece!
YOU ARE MMMMY MASTERPIECE!!
FUCKIN PERFECT...TO MEEEE!!
Absolutely..100% pure music from the 80's awesome
Absolutely. One of a few song that is so flexible, we can input our own words and still great.
This song is so beautiful. Yes when lovers get away from each other due to some reasons. True love always haunts the heart. It's very painful to miss a loved one . Amazing song. Thank you for sharing.
we all agree no one loves 80s as much as I do. The timeless mumble humming to every song we ever forgot, that we always knew. The RESONANCE
Every time I think of you I always catch my breath......god I love that feeling.
Studying up on this one to add to my band’s playlist....our singer nails it
"In your world, I have no meaning" that part stings
Tell me about it freind
I'm 59 and this is one of the best songs ever. I love it.

2022 theme song 2nd theme song
Now it’s 2022 and I love it. Still a great song no matter the year!
I used to sing this while I cleaned rooms at a resort when I was 15!!!! we would dance around and sing this loud!!

Serioously, dude: get a grip
This song came out 2 years after I was born. I grew up on classic rock and 80's metal. These days I find myself appreciating these songs
Im 33 yrs. Old i love the 80's song......

Just seen 22 jump street...wow has it been that many years!!!
This always reminds me of my first love back in Hamilton. I'm still very sorry after all of these years.
Haaaaaaa! Those were the days! I need a time machine to bring me back to 80's.
I like this song because of how mixed the emotions are. Is this a song about someone in denial or is it someone moving forward? I could never figure it out.
The typical break up phases. You miss the person for the first few months and than you realize you dont need them and move on.

This was my wife’s favorite song RIP. We would hear it on the radio. Took me time to find it.
A song i must hear from begining to end, ALL THE TIME☺😎
Life brought me here.
And I'm still standing here . And your miles miles away. Come home Baby
