Makes me want to use the Fairlight on my next song. Thank you Peter Vogel. The 80's would not have been the same without you. (The Fairlight was named after the Fairlight hovercraft that used to pass by in Australia in the 80's. Seemed like a good name for a business.)
My husband chose this song for our wedding dance in 1993. I was so afraid to here what he picked because he was a serious punk rocker. I listened to this often. He passed in 2014. Thank you for all the memories.
I wish we had chose this song, my wife would have moved across the dance floor like a wisp of effervescent spring air, I am sorry to hear about your husband - a punk rocker with a soft heart for 80’s classics
This song gives me a feeling I can't quite catagorize. It's part elation, part wonder, part adoration with an underlying hint of longing, sadness and nostalgia. God....The 80s.

@@mindrolling24 Well technically, the Furs came out in 1977. But they really became popular in the early 80's, thanks to a little tv station called MTV. Once their videos started playing, they reached a wider audience and their hit song "Love My Way" catapult the group into the American mainstream. A little bit of music/mtv trivia for you.🙂
I love the comments section for these great 80s songs. It makes me realize how lucky we were to be in our prime during this amazing decade, and at the same time it’s clear that while many of us are happy, we still miss those glorious days and many of us would do just about anything to do it again. I’m happy to have experienced it with you all, my brothers and sisters from the 80s
I second your sentiment; I only turned 8 by the end of the decade, but experiencing it after the fact, no question you were blessed to enjoy it firsthand :-)

So true. Makes me feel kinda sad though. This is one of the songs me and my high school buddies used to play in our band, along with Boys Don't Cry, Fire In Cairo, With Or Without You, etc. However, our drummer has now passed on. Time flies by so fast.
I had my eleven year old daughter last weekend for visitation. On the way to the playground, this came over SiriusXM "First Wave." I turned it up, telling her how much I loved this song and the Furs. Today, she messaged me with a link to this video. This song touched her heart as much as it has mine, a testament to its enduring and ageless appeal.
10 months later, I'm hearing this for the first time, and thinking I need to play this for my daughter and stepdaughter (who might be familiar with it) because it's lovely. I wouldn't have heard of them if you hadn't posted some of their music on fb, years ago, when our little fb group wasn't all about politics and your cousin Sheri was on, and things were more fun! Well, we were all a little younger! Glad one of your daughters liked it. Music has been one of the strongest bonds with my husband (your fellow Berklee alumni) and my brothers and especially with my girls! Bring them up on the music you love and they'll take you to expensive concerts in your old age! (and now you're a screenwriter and movie star) regards, Marlene
The 80's what an era, what a time period, the most beautiful nostalgic music that always brought a smile to your face and made you just feeling happy again. A time were there was a burst of color in the World, be it fashion, film, music videos, most Artists and Bands were at their finest during this era. The World was just kinder and more caring, the 80's a timeless unbeatable decade ...
I was a radio DJ at my college in the mid to late 80’s and discovered this group for the first time. I was the only DJ that played Top 40 music and this song actually charted so I learned about progressive rock or new wave and was mesmerized by this song for its haunting music and lyrics. Many good songs from this band but this song resonates the most. Sad song but hits the gut.
me and my wife just came home from a terrible day at both of our jobs and this comes on and I just looked over and her and sang this to her and just seeing her smile will always make me happy no matter how bad both of our days are
This is one of the best comments I have ever read. Connection and compassion between two human beings is so wonderful. Nice change from the usual option pieces on here.
I think it was the rebound to all the Vietnam era music. I don't know, that's just my theory. They started experimenting with electronic music, too. It was glorious wasn't it? The 90s weren't too bad either, but the 80s were amazing.
No one cares about your race...get that shit out of here. Anyone can enjoy music, get that notion you have to be a specific type of person out of here.
As children in the 1970s my siblings and I endured an abusive and hateful father that beat us and my mother. In 1982, when I was 15, my brother and I found our mother's body in a bathroom of our house; she'd overdosed on barbiturates, likely to escape him. Without her there to act as a buffer between us and him, we endured even worse. It was a very difficult couple of decades -- the 70s and 80s -- for us but my teens were made bearable by music from Simple Minds, The Psychedelic Furs, The Smiths and so on. It sounds cliché but it's true. It was an amazing, amazing time for music and talent and creativity. It holds as much meaning for me now as it did in 1984 when this song and many like it let me close my eyes and be somewhere else, somewhere safe if only for a few minutes. In fact, so strong is my adoration for this music that, oddly, part of me -- now 55 -- wants to go back to those times. Of course, I could do without that "other stuff" but I really miss the music that got me through it all the first time.
I also grew up in the 70's & 80's with 4 brothers and 2 sisters, parents divorced, 4 older siblings were old enough to be on their own and mother remarried. Myself, younger sister and brother, my mom and her abusive husband. He would start a fight with her, beat up on her until she would leave and he would then come into me and my brothers room and drag me out to the kitchen and mentally and physically beat me for hours on end, "it was brutal" usually till 3am, I was his scapegoat for all his problems he said. This went on for about 3 1/2" years, started at about 11 tears old. I was luckily brought to my father's and not long after my younger siblings. Something that always took me to another place was this music, I'm now 57 and I too want to go back, without the "other stuff" also. This music has a beautiful way to bring back the good memories that made childhood special even though we went through some rough times. I hope you you're doing better and keep these songs with you!!!
Yup. The horrors they put up on ''trending'' today on U-tube are enough to make me vomit. Most of it is anti-melody and insults mixed with threats and whores
Just saw them in Pensacola and he still sounds good. Of course when they play live it's better than recorded sound imho. Way more punch with live sound.
I can't stress it enough, 80s had the best music. The entertainment in general, but the music was so good, this is another one of those amazing songs. We used to dance, sing and have fun to it. So many incredible memories and makes me so nostalgic.
A man in my shoes runs a light And all the papers lied tonight But falling over you Is the news of the day Angels fall like rain And love, love, love, love is all of heaven away (Love, love, love) Inside you the time moves And she don't fade The ghost in you She don't fade Inside you the time moves And she don't fade (Don't fade) A race is on I'm on your side And hearing you my engines die I'm in a mood for you For running away Stars come down in you And love, love, love you can't give it away (love, love, love, love) Inside you the time moves And she don't fade The ghost in you She don't fade Inside you the time moves And she don't fade (in you) Don't you go It makes no sense When all your talking supermen Just take away the time And get in the way Ain't it just like rain And love, love, love, love is only heaven away (love, love, love, love) Inside you the time moves And she don't fade The ghost in you She don't fade Inside you the time moves And she don't fade The ghost in you She don't fade Inside you the time moves And she don't fade The ghost in you She don't fade Inside you the time moves And she don't fade
Inside you the time moves and she don't fade (Drums beat time in you and I and) The Ghost in you she don't fade (Rain don't fall down here no more it's) Inside you the time moves and she don't fade (Coming down to losing it and) The ghost in you she don't fade (Drums beat time in you and I and) Inside you the time moves and she don't fade (Rain don't fall down here no more it's) The ghost in you she don't fade (Coming down to losing it and)
2021: This song had been stuck in my head for a year, I finally find out its title. This is one of the songs my father played when I was a young girl. I miss my dad so much.
I have filled my girls with 80s music. Cherish it. It's a treasure that we can freely give. It is a key to a time when we were young and free and had hope and the future lay brightly before us. It was truly our glory days and we want to share it with you so you NEVER forget us. Now you pass it on.
Holy crap! Why the hell can't they make music like this anymore? Now this is what I call music. The so called "artists" of today could learn thing or two from '80's musicians about how to write songs. Thank you for posting.
My theory is that 80s music is both sad and happy at the same time because it was made during the cold war. We learned how to have fun and rad dance parties with the spectre of a possible nuclear holocaust in the backs of our minds. I suppose that gives us something in common with the lost generation of WW1 and the generation that endured WW2.
Just saw the Furs last night in Rancho Mirage, 10 minutes from my house!! Amazing concert, I don’t know how these guys are still able to do it! His voice sounds as awesome as it ever did. Crowd was much older than I remember, lol. So blessed to have the opportunity to experience that after all these years!
Adrian Kline, one day, YOU will be the old fart carrying on about how great it was when you were young. It might behoove you to listen to your parents' and grandparents' ramblings because I swear on the fact, that they will not be there to "bother" you with their "old stories" anymore. I felt the same way when I was young. I am so damned glad I asked them about their lives and listened to what they have to say. All that remains of their lives now, are grave markers and a plethora of memories.
Betsy Collins this is how the future generation will interact with kids today who will be our age by then: Millennial: Ahhh music is so much better in the 2010s! Future gen: uhhhh...what is music?
I don't know what it is but I get teary eye whenever I hear this song. I guess it's just me thinking about me as a shy teenager longing for someone who would be the subject of my spaceage love song.
Or may was been followed the kepts praying that he or fall into a big a gigartan trouble that's why it was rhymed it that way.And telling guy that they' been watched and won't fade.
You don't need to apologize for the soulless, contrived and hackneyed music that's being made today. The 80's was truly a magical time for music. Society was relatively calm, the Soviet Union fell, the economy was getting strong, but overall things were looking up. I graduated high school in 1980. Punk rock was nearly dead along with disco and the Urban Cowboy stuff was doing its thing on the sideline - And then came New Wave or Alternative and all its subgenres like Shoegazing, Dream Pop and Neo Psychadelia and all others. If there was one song that I see as a start of all of it combined with MTV was Buggles' Video Killed The Radio Star. As far as all of us longing for that day and it's return, someone said in another musics comments, "We're homesick for a place that no longer exists."
When I hear this song it brings me back in the 80s. Where everything is better than what we have now. People were more caring and giving and honest back in the 80s.
@@TT-fq7pl Wrong. You’re just looking at from the point of view of a miserable leftist. If you were poor, you lived in a land of freedom and opportunity and could change your life. Liberty reigned, so creativity did, as well. The dismal world we live in now is thanks to decades of progressive (progressing us to hell) policies. You can’t rewrite history. We remember.
I miss you baby brother... every time I think of you I remember us singing all the songs by the Psychedelic Furs...your birthday is Fri...and my heart hurts... I know you are Dancing in Heaven... Martin Forever.. I love you brother..
Just heard this coming back after seeing my sister in the hospital. She loved this group. I was the cool kid in school for knowing teen music before other kids did, because of her. She's now in palliative care. She had a stroke during brain surgery to remove a tumor. She's paralyzed on one side and blind in one eye. She has had one problem after another! I cried like a baby and looked like a fool when this came on the radio.
Reading this made me feels sad too. So sorry about your lovely sister. My heart felt prayers to her. Tell her I said she will never "Fade". Hugs and kisses
Omg! I can relate, iv been looking for this song too since 2007 when i was working very from home and family. This use to be my morning dosage.but suddenly forgot about this when i got home. Today i found it finally
Saw The Furs last night in Austin. This was my 6th time to see them and the show was so fantastic that I'm still floating. I've loved them since I was 13 and I'm thrilled they are still touring. Starting with Run and Run and ending with India, the setlist was incredible. My favorite song of theirs is The Ghost In You. That song makes me so happy. It takes me back but at the same time it fills my heart with the present. While listening to Richard sing it last night, I thought to myself...I hope I hear this song on the day I die. Then I can go peacefully ❤
I’m 13 and my favorite band is the psychedelic furs. This song and love my way are my favorite of their songs. One day I was driving with my dad in the car and this song came on, both of us started to sing it at the same time and it was great :)🤍
Lots of great stuff from that era. If you like this, you might like other bands from the 80s like The Smiths, The Cure, Echo & The Bunnymen...so much good stuff out there to discover. I miss that feeling of discovery.
Such a haunting voice! I can never get tired of listening to this song. The 80's were the best years of my life. My best friend and I used to record ourselves trying to sing this song. He unfortunately ended his life a few years back. They played this song at his funeral and I stood over his casket and sang it to him. I still listen to our recordings quite often. See you on the other side my friend! R.I.P
I thought the 80's would never end. Being young, the future ahead of you with no worries, good health and fun times. Now its all a memory too look back and wonder. I started the 80's being 18 yrs old and now in 18 yrs i will once again be in the 80's. that may not count but I was able to make it this far.
The lyrics are as incredible today as the first time I heard them. Rocked me to my core. “A man in my shoes runs a light and all the papers lied tonight but falling over you is the news of the day.”
Covid-19 makes you realize that you had the best childhood EVER...💙💙💙🙏🙏🙏 WOWWW August 21st 2021 I'm back again and I had no idea how many likes I had gotten 💙🤍💙🤍💙 THANK YOU EVERYONE.. From the bottom of my heart. 2021 isn't easy, but listening to songs like this here😌😌😌 Just makes me feel better 💙🤍🙏🏽
@@deadaccount5 Katy and Justin can't hold a candle to the Psychedelic Furs or The Cure or Depeche Mode or U2 or even Devo! Nevermind Katy and Justin, the 80's have some of the best music, period! Booyah!💥
This song is one of the strongest reminders for knowing how much I love my wife . . . I took her to see the Furs a few years ago for her birthday (as she is an 80s music fanatic), and while watching and enjoying the show, she felt a little faint, so we walked into the lobby and sat down to rest for a bit. After a short while, we could hear the strains of this song - one of my all time favorites - echoing through the lobby . . . and while I initially felt like we were missing something special, I looked into her eyes while we were sitting and talking, and hearing this song from afar, and felt as much love as I ever have in my life. I will never forget that moment, and this song will always remind me of the greatest, deepest love that doesn't fade.
It's April 13, 2020. A global virus has our whole world on lockdown, many have died and many more live fearful, self-quarenteened in their homes. This song tonight makes it all go away, for just a few minutes.. so nicely, so easily, so well. God bless all who love this song as much as I. Play it just one more time, for all of us! ☮️
Keep the music going, escape for awhile get the smile back and let's be thankful for what we have , the rest will fall back in place, life's weird that way
In the 80's I hated my boring job at the USPS distribution center sorting mail graveyard shift 19 yrs old but they let you wear headphone style radios or walkmens. So I got paid good and could listen to great 80's music for 8 hrs yes life was great sure miss those days...
I am so greatful my dad kept 80s music alive in our household. It's 2015 and I listen to 80s music on the regular and every time I do I get such a rush. It sounds dumb but I feel like it takes me back even though I wasn't alive then (kinda silly huh). Such a great decade in music history just wish I would have been 17 then and not now. It must have been great.
+Maritza Barrios I keep it alive in my 3 girls and they LOVE it! All these bands are touring lately and my now 20+ girls go to their shows! :D I'm a proud mama!
+Maritza Barrios I was the same way when I was your age. I tell people what kind of music I like, and they say "What do you know about that kind of stuff? How old are you?" I tell them my age (31) and explain that my parents listened to some of it, and some of it I discovered on my own.
Did you know that there were people that were living during that time and heard none of it. Now that the internet is so accessible you can listen to this to your heart's content. There were some of us alive at the time that had shitty lives and others who had worse. However, the music is still there.
David Meredith well.. good job your wedding was 19 years ago! Today “love my way” is like a gay anthem thanks to that bollocks movie "call my name" or whatever, from last year. You know, I am not homophobic but these guys are just spoiling perfectly honest and good music for the rest of us (ABBA? the colors of the rainbow.. etc.) 🤦🏻♂️
Someone once said to me you'll always remember the songs from your youth. You will always play those songs over and over again. I'm so glad my 20's youth is from 1980-1989. This song proves the 80s music will always be my muse.
This is not a song... it is a time machine. It is a window back to an incredible era that I was so fortunate to be a part of.
Wonderfully stated. Yes, I feel fortunate as well at having been a part of that era.
You punched AJ
@@BaseballPlayer0 lol... I also stalked Erin Andrews and married Anna Faris :-)
Yep, Music is the closest thing we have to a time machine
it's true!!😀

I'm now 57 and really miss our younger days. A truly incredible band. 2 years later and am 59 now so close to 60. Never thought I'd live thru the 80's
We're the same age, I know what you mean. Where's a DeLorean when you need one? 😕
I’m 52 and feel the same. I was mesmerised by Richard Butler and bought their first album on cassette. Still have it. I wish it was 1987 again.
...1987 was just a special year for me, living in college. Introduced many friends to The Furs.

I think it was the rebound to all the Vietnam era music. I don't know, that's just my theory. They started experimenting with electronic music, too. It was glorious wasn't it? The 90s weren't too bad either, but the 80s were amazing.
Cause it simply can 🤷🏼😂
Not all.
Not sure why God chose us to grow up in the best era possibly in human history. But I'm glad He did.
Happy Tears.
Yes me too
In my humble opinion, one of the finest love songs to come out of the 80s.
One of the finest and yet not even a top 5 for the very underrated Psychedelic Furs.
i see no lies.
Brett, I agree. Totally underrated song. I was 14 when this came out and after this and Love My Way I was just mesmerized by this band.
You are completely right. I almost get like a warmness when I hear the opening bars..
@@SNAFU78 always, always darling
As a 12 year old Black kid in the projects of Camden N.J. I didn't know what kind of music this is but I LOVED it.
you are my hero
Trump's Bane most BEAUTIFUL. comment I have read all day!
Trump's Bane Always loved this!! ❤❤
Trump's Bane I find your claim very difficult to believe and, in fact I don't believe you at all.
No one cares about your race...get that shit out of here.
Anyone can enjoy music, get that notion you have to be a specific type of person out of here.
As children in the 1970s my siblings and I endured an abusive and hateful father that beat us and my mother. In 1982, when I was 15, my brother and I found our mother's body in a bathroom of our house; she'd overdosed on barbiturates, likely to escape him. Without her there to act as a buffer between us and him, we endured even worse. It was a very difficult couple of decades -- the 70s and 80s -- for us but my teens were made bearable by music from Simple Minds, The Psychedelic Furs, The Smiths and so on. It sounds cliché but it's true. It was an amazing, amazing time for music and talent and creativity. It holds as much meaning for me now as it did in 1984 when this song and many like it let me close my eyes and be somewhere else, somewhere safe if only for a few minutes. In fact, so strong is my adoration for this music that, oddly, part of me -- now 55 -- wants to go back to those times. Of course, I could do without that "other stuff" but I really miss the music that got me through it all the first time.
I also grew up in the 70's & 80's with 4 brothers and 2 sisters, parents divorced, 4 older siblings were old enough to be on their own and mother remarried. Myself, younger sister and brother, my mom and her abusive husband. He would start a fight with her, beat up on her until she would leave and he would then come into me and my brothers room and drag me out to the kitchen and mentally and physically beat me for hours on end, "it was brutal" usually till 3am, I was his scapegoat for all his problems he said. This went on for about 3 1/2" years, started at about 11 tears old. I was luckily brought to my father's and not long after my younger siblings. Something that always took me to another place was this music, I'm now 57 and I too want to go back, without the "other stuff" also. This music has a beautiful way to bring back the good memories that made childhood special even though we went through some rough times. I hope you you're doing better and keep these songs with you!!!
I'm so sorry for the trauma you endured. I'm so glad you survived 😊
GOD BLESS YOU❤
I hope you and your siblings are well now.
best music review. sorry they were mean to you - they were mean to me too.
at least we had this
Richard Butler has such classic British voice. Love his breathy enunciation and low undertones.
He performs similar to Bowie...ive been 10 feet from him performing 🎉
The 80's were such a great time for music.
true
...and so many of us took it for granted:-(
bluebird Yeah, I know! I wasted a lot of those years. No mulligans in life though.
and any kind of haircut I could think of getting and did
Yup. The horrors they put up on ''trending'' today on U-tube are enough to make me vomit.
Most of it is anti-melody and insults mixed with threats and whores
Richard Butler has one of those rare unmistakable voices he is a legend.
I absolutely agree. He is so underrated and so is this band.
And so is this song...
so sooo true
Just saw them in Pensacola and he still sounds good. Of course when they play live it's better than recorded sound imho. Way more punch with live sound.
love you so much beautiful tracy.
I can't stress it enough, 80s had the best music. The entertainment in general, but the music was so good, this is another one of those amazing songs. We used to dance, sing and have fun to it. So many incredible memories and makes me so nostalgic.
It was the amount of genres 👍🙏
Yes the 80's were an idealistic time. Everything seemed possible.
word up!....it was a magical time!
It was a decade of Renaissance,,,
exactly ✌
2024 anyone
Buti nahanap ko tong song na to haha
Thanks to Kohl's in-store radio and Shazam
This is on my cardio playlist.
Yup moi. It’s as true now as it was then. Class of 1983 🙃
Yeah brolorenz Manaloto aka Louie Antonio of SCC neg occ 4-13-2024
I'm now 57 and really miss our younger days. A truly incredible band.
They are still touring - I saw them in July. Ethereal ear candy....
Amen
I'm 58 and I know how you feel. Just remember "You never know what you had until it's gone forever."
I'm 58 years young, too. It's depressing to be living in these times. I wish I could go back.😞💔
Me too ...wish to return to those beloved days ..
A man in my shoes runs a light
And all the papers lied tonight
But falling over you
Is the news of the day
Angels fall like rain
And love, love, love, love is all of heaven away (Love, love, love)
Inside you the time moves
And she don't fade
The ghost in you
She don't fade
Inside you the time moves
And she don't fade (Don't fade)
A race is on I'm on your side
And hearing you my engines die
I'm in a mood for you
For running away
Stars come down in you
And love, love, love you can't give it away (love, love, love, love)
Inside you the time moves
And she don't fade
The ghost in you
She don't fade
Inside you the time moves
And she don't fade (in you)
Don't you go
It makes no sense
When all your talking supermen
Just take away the time
And get in the way
Ain't it just like rain
And love, love, love, love is only heaven away (love, love, love, love)
Inside you the time moves
And she don't fade
The ghost in you
She don't fade
Inside you the time moves
And she don't fade
The ghost in you
She don't fade
Inside you the time moves
And she don't fade
The ghost in you
She don't fade
Inside you the time moves
And she don't fade
lovely lyrics
Thank You!
Letra de un surrealismo increíble 👌
Inside you the time moves and she don't fade
(Drums beat time in you and I and)
The Ghost in you she don't fade
(Rain don't fall down here no more it's)
Inside you the time moves and she don't fade
(Coming down to losing it and)
The ghost in you she don't fade
(Drums beat time in you and I and)
Inside you the time moves and she don't fade
(Rain don't fall down here no more it's)
The ghost in you she don't fade
(Coming down to losing it and)
I can almost imagine David Bowie singing this. A very soothing and heartwarming song. God I miss the 80's. How good were they!
This song is a masterpiece, a GIFT!
It gives me the goosebumps!
Me too!
Me 3
So agree !
2021: This song had been stuck in my head for a year, I finally find out its title. This is one of the songs my father played when I was a young girl. I miss my dad so much.
I have filled my girls with 80s music. Cherish it. It's a treasure that we can freely give. It is a key to a time when we were young and free and had hope and the future lay brightly before us. It was truly our glory days and we want to share it with you so you NEVER forget us. Now you pass it on.
You could never be more right.. I'm so sorry about your Daddy. But this song is for you if it represents your memory. ❤️
Also baby.. He had great taste in music
Welcome little one we’ve be been here since the 80s
Me too when i listen to radio i wondered what is the title of this song
The 80's anthem to unrequited or lost loves. Still one of the best and most haunting ever.
The Decade of Soul Mates
Thank you saying what I have long felt about this song
WOW !!!! ...... amazing wasn't it.
Holy crap! Why the hell can't they make music like this anymore? Now this is what I call music. The so called "artists" of today could learn thing or two from '80's musicians about how to write songs. Thank you for posting.
Doesn't it seem like almost all of the Artists in the 80s could write decent Songs?
80’s best music decade ever
Totally agree Steve. Steve 😁
All the pain; all the suffering, it was worth it, just to hear great music like this....
The melancholia this creates is HUGE.
I agree.
Somehow it just makes me so sad, melancholy is too mild a word.
Can't even describe it, but the feeling just washes over me again and again.
I know hunny!!
@@frankzambory8831 cannot stop it
My theory is that 80s music is both sad and happy at the same time because it was made during the cold war.
We learned how to have fun and rad dance parties with the spectre of a possible nuclear holocaust in the backs of our minds.
I suppose that gives us something in common with the lost generation of WW1 and the generation that endured WW2.
Very Huge
A wise man once said " UA-cam is the closest thing to a time machine that we have"...
It's true 100% 😎🙏😷
Absolutely
♥️♥️🤘🎸
Indeed..
No shit!!
Just saw the Furs last night in Rancho Mirage, 10 minutes from my house!! Amazing concert, I don’t know how these guys are still able to do it! His voice sounds as awesome as it ever did. Crowd was much older than I remember, lol. So blessed to have the opportunity to experience that after all these years!
Was there too...can't believe voice and moves are same. Backup band great too.
The perfect all encompassing representation of the 80's in one song. ❤
When the music was grand and the world a little simpler and kinder!
Adrian Kline Old farts always tell the same old story.
Your words made me tear up-they were so true.
Adrian Kline, one day, YOU will be the old fart carrying on about how great it was when you were young. It might behoove you to listen to your parents' and grandparents' ramblings because I swear on the fact, that they will not be there to "bother" you with their "old stories" anymore. I felt the same way when I was young. I am so damned glad I asked them about their lives and listened to what they have to say. All that remains of their lives now, are grave markers and a plethora of memories.
YES!! Could not have said it better!! People actually had to make an effort to talk to each other or get asked out. Loved it
Betsy Collins this is how the future generation will interact with kids today who will be our age by then:
Millennial: Ahhh music is so much better in the 2010s!
Future gen: uhhhh...what is music?
Just heard this song after decades and it just took me back in time instantly. How could I have forgotten such a piece of art ! Epic sing
Yep, just now had the same experience...like I was really there again.
I don't know what it is but I get teary eye whenever I hear this song. I guess it's just me thinking about me as a shy teenager longing for someone who would be the subject of my spaceage love song.
Or may was been followed the kepts praying that he or fall into a big a gigartan trouble that's why it was rhymed it that way.And telling guy that they' been watched and won't fade.
Richard Butler has several great songs
Shame on you , never again
This song is a virtual time machine which take me back to my high school days in the 80's. I really love this song. ❤
Looks like we are in the 80s. This song doesn't age.
Back when music had soul, feeling and was just generally good.
Richard Butler is a perfect cross between David Bowie and Johnny Rotten.
+Eric M True !!!
+Eric M I never seen either of them in the same room at the same time..... Coincidence.... Lol
Exactly!
+Eric M I was in love with him for the longest time. Makes me smile to see him again ... love this song.
bingo
Psychedelic Furs is a band that aged well. I saw them live 3 years ago. The air of sophistication was palpable.
3:58 I’d love to see them live. Time travel and timelessness ❤
Palpable? Indeed!
One of the greatest songs of all time. Period. End of story. Love it. Thank you for creating this song. So beautiful.
To all those that had their prime years during the 80's... I envy you. 80's music is gold. I apologize for the garbage they're crapping out these days
Very well stated-
No need to envy us, you can make 80’s music your music too.
You don't need to apologize for the soulless, contrived and hackneyed music that's being made today. The 80's was truly a magical time for music. Society was relatively calm, the Soviet Union fell, the economy was getting strong, but overall things were looking up.
I graduated high school in 1980. Punk rock was nearly dead along with disco and the Urban Cowboy stuff was doing its thing on the sideline - And then came New Wave or Alternative and all its subgenres like Shoegazing, Dream Pop and Neo Psychadelia and all others.
If there was one song that I see as a start of all of it combined with MTV was Buggles' Video Killed The Radio Star.
As far as all of us longing for that day and it's return, someone said in another musics comments, "We're homesick for a place that no longer exists."
I want to buy all of you a beer. Cheers!
Andrew, so glad you have found this music
When I hear this song it brings me back in the 80s. Where everything is better than what we have now. People were more caring and giving and honest back in the 80s.
So true 🇦🇺
yeah , you bet it is.. I'm 54 now , it's all in our memories now..god bless from Philippines..
I so wish we could all go back. Best decade of my life.
I was born in 1996. I love 80s music. I don't care what my peers think of me, I believe I have a good taste when it comes to music.
The 80’s….had to be there 🤗
Why? I was there. The rise of neo-conservatism -- Thatcher, Reagan, etc. We're still living in that cold, materialistic shadow.
@@TT-fq7plLOL That’s called freedom! We had it. Reagan kicked ass.
@@davel7791 If you were poor or intelligent or cared about someone other than yourself, he sure did.
@@TT-fq7pl Wrong. You’re just looking at from the point of view of a miserable leftist. If you were poor, you lived in a land of freedom and opportunity and could change your life. Liberty reigned, so creativity did, as well. The dismal world we live in now is thanks to decades of progressive (progressing us to hell) policies. You can’t rewrite history. We remember.
I miss you baby brother... every time I think of you I remember us singing all the songs by the Psychedelic Furs...your birthday is Fri...and my heart hurts... I know you are Dancing in Heaven... Martin Forever.. I love you brother..
sorry
sorry to read this.....for some reason this touched me...reply with his bday and my wife and I promise to lift a toast to him on his day!!!
❤
I'm so sorry for your loss hope you find peace and resignation on this song
Just heard this coming back after seeing my sister in the hospital. She loved this group. I was the cool kid in school for knowing teen music before other kids did, because of her. She's now in palliative care. She had a stroke during brain surgery to remove a tumor. She's paralyzed on one side and blind in one eye. She has had one problem after another! I cried like a baby and looked like a fool when this came on the radio.
Stay strong. Life is not always fair.
Bless you...I cry everytime I hear this song.
@@anniebieber19
😄 Makes me feel better
hugging you.....we're all gon be alright
Reading this made me feels sad too. So sorry about your lovely sister. My heart felt prayers to her. Tell her I said she will never "Fade". Hugs and kisses
2023 I'm leaving this comment here so that after a week or a month or a year when someone likes it, I'll get reminded of this masterpiece🙋
Hey Sister, I feel you 3/25/24. I love the Psyc Furs, the soundtrack of my youth and yours, too.
PING! A great GenX campfire song too!
Does brings back a time of happiness and sadness the 80s
This song simply crushes me it is so beautiful.
Martin Hyizna this song has no rythm
You're right... it doesn't have "rythm". It has rhythm.
salvatore DeAngelo You're deaf.
Yes, yes it does.
Agree. Haunting and beautiful.
I've been looking this song for almost 5 years now, I forgot the title and now I found it. It makes my day really :)
Omg! I can relate, iv been looking for this song too since 2007 when i was working very from home and family. This use to be my morning dosage.but suddenly forgot about this when i got home. Today i found it finally
Atlast ! I did too !
Best feeling ever :)
A good song that does make the soul feel good or has an affect on it . Love the 80s 👍😎
ME TOO !!! try searching for a song with ..."and love"... pfbt !! hahahaha so cool you found it , love that feeling
Saw The Furs last night in Austin. This was my 6th time to see them and the show was so fantastic that I'm still floating. I've loved them since I was 13 and I'm thrilled they are still touring. Starting with Run and Run and ending with India, the setlist was incredible. My favorite song of theirs is The Ghost In You. That song makes me so happy. It takes me back but at the same time it fills my heart with the present. While listening to Richard sing it last night, I thought to myself...I hope I hear this song on the day I die. Then I can go peacefully ❤
I'll be seeing them in September. I've seen them live once before and they are Amazing!
This really takes me back.
I dedicate this lovely
song to my late
husband. Butler's
voice is truly unique.
It's a perfect tribute ❤
Bless you both
You will never be alone with you late husband looking down over you
Sabra Zafarano. Keep the the faith. We`ll all see our departed loved one`s again!!!!
I’m 13 and my favorite band is the psychedelic furs. This song and love my way are my favorite of their songs. One day I was driving with my dad in the car and this song came on, both of us started to sing it at the same time and it was great :)🤍
Lots of great stuff from that era. If you like this, you might like other bands from the 80s like The Smiths, The Cure, Echo & The Bunnymen...so much good stuff out there to discover. I miss that feeling of discovery.
Listen to "Heaven" ua-cam.com/video/4G_CAYf-itw/v-deo.html , that's one of my favorites
Lucky little one to find them
Very excited for you as you discover more and more 80's music. It will add more to your life than you can imagine. Much love to you.
You got great taste in music kid. Rock on.
It is just a masterpiece...
No more words to describe it...
The Furs simply rule...
Such a haunting voice! I can never get tired of listening to this song. The 80's were the best years of my life. My best friend and I used to record ourselves trying to sing this song. He unfortunately ended his life a few years back. They played this song at his funeral and I stood over his casket and sang it to him. I still listen to our recordings quite often. See you on the other side my friend! R.I.P
@@gregcomeaux8105 Some day hopefully we will get to see them once again.
I think he has the most amazing, distinctive voice I have ever heard. I could listen to it forever.
WOW. What a story, Pedro! Playing this at a funeral! Very touching. Now I want the same! Bless you & your cool friend.
@@maddog7598 I agree!!

@@jennyn5692 I have no problem with your remark whatsoever!!!!
missing music like this... loved the 80's.....anyone listening in 2019?
Yep, right along with ya. Keep on listening and make no excuses when you do.
here.. love 80s... always
Yes...I do
I remember seeing a band on mtv then going out to buy the cassette.
of course we are as there is nothing worse listening to these days
This song takes me to a lovely time with my best friend . She died & I miss her dreadfully . I weep with joy & sorrow
I thought the 80's would never end. Being young, the future ahead of you with no worries, good health and fun times. Now its all a memory too look back and wonder. I started the 80's being 18 yrs old and now in 18 yrs i will once again be in the 80's. that may not count but I was able to make it this far.
one of the best things about 50 years old,is the fact that i lived my teenage years in the 80's that is priceless and i am grateful !!!
52 year old down in central México..totally agree with you.
As a 54 year old this was US! So many great bands from the late 70s thru 80s! New Wave, Post-Punk, Ska, Punk, College Rock, Indie, Alt.Rock!
I want to go back to my 80s youth
The lyrics are as incredible today as the first time I heard them. Rocked me to my core. “A man in my shoes runs a light and all the papers lied tonight but falling over you is the news of the day.”
Covid-19 makes you realize that you had the best childhood EVER...💙💙💙🙏🙏🙏
WOWWW August 21st 2021 I'm back again and I had no idea how many likes I had gotten 💙🤍💙🤍💙 THANK YOU EVERYONE.. From the bottom of my heart. 2021 isn't easy, but listening to songs like this here😌😌😌 Just makes me feel better 💙🤍🙏🏽
Yes, for me, Katy Perry, Justin Bieber, all that crap. Whilst I find myself here during lockdown listening to this, which is much better.
@@deadaccount5 Katy and Justin can't hold a candle to the Psychedelic Furs or The Cure or Depeche Mode or U2 or even Devo! Nevermind Katy and Justin, the 80's have some of the best music, period! Booyah!💥
All the bullshit that came after the 2000s, makes you only lust for the past even more than ever.
@@local_peanut Wow! Haha!! 😅
And the reason to fight too many agendas happening right now so your children and grands kids have that freedom.
This song is one of the strongest reminders for knowing how much I love my wife . . . I took her to see the Furs a few years ago for her birthday (as she is an 80s music fanatic), and while watching and enjoying the show, she felt a little faint, so we walked into the lobby and sat down to rest for a bit. After a short while, we could hear the strains of this song - one of my all time favorites - echoing through the lobby . . . and while I initially felt like we were missing something special, I looked into her eyes while we were sitting and talking, and hearing this song from afar, and felt as much love as I ever have in my life. I will never forget that moment, and this song will always remind me of the greatest, deepest love that doesn't fade.
A dive back in the mythical eighties 😢...
One of my all time favorite tunes. Brings back so many memories
One of my favorite songs of all time 😊
It's great. Check out Robyn Hitchcock's version of this awesome song!
It's April 13, 2020. A global virus has our whole world on lockdown, many have died and many more live fearful, self-quarenteened in their homes. This song tonight makes it all go away, for just a few minutes.. so nicely, so easily, so well. God bless all who love this song as much as I. Play it just one more time, for all of us! ☮️
I do agree with your thoughts. You're not alone! I do love this song. I Love love love "Love My Way" more tho!
So dramatic lol
Feel ya brother
@@yoshatabi I'd say overly dramatic.
Keep the music going, escape for awhile get the smile back and let's be thankful for what we have , the rest will fall back in place, life's weird that way
I was 17 in 1980...The 80's ,you just had to be there!!
Was a great time to be young
What did you think of this song in particular when it came around? What was your reaction to it and the culture around this song like back then?
In the 80's I hated my boring job at the USPS distribution center sorting mail graveyard shift 19 yrs old but they let you wear headphone style radios or walkmens. So I got paid good and could listen to great 80's music for 8 hrs yes life was great sure miss those days...
I am so greatful my dad kept 80s music alive in our household. It's 2015 and I listen to 80s music on the regular and every time I do I get such a rush. It sounds dumb but I feel like it takes me back even though I wasn't alive then (kinda silly huh). Such a great decade in music history just wish I would have been 17 then and not now. It must have been great.
+Maritza Barrios I keep it alive in my 3 girls and they LOVE it! All these bands are touring lately and my now 20+ girls go to their shows! :D I'm a proud mama!
+Maritza Barrios I was the same way when I was your age. I tell people what kind of music I like, and they say "What do you know about that kind of stuff? How old are you?" I tell them my age (31) and explain that my parents listened to some of it, and some of it I discovered on my own.
Did you know that there were people that were living during that time and heard none of it. Now that the internet is so accessible you can listen to this to your heart's content. There were some of us alive at the time that had shitty lives and others who had worse. However, the music is still there.
+Tara Marie so glad I never had kids
sad comment....not necessary
I love Richard Butler's voice & English accent. Beautiful song x
+Tinker Diggens And Peter Murphy, a powerful voice also.
I feel blessed because I was there is the 80s .life was so sweet.....
Timeless and brilliant song from an incredible era of music.
you couldn't teach someone to write a song this good.
Can you imagine the feeling of singing this just after you wrote it?
I had a boyfriend break up with me in the 80s. In the 90s he sent me the lyrics in a letter. Sometimes people are just not in the right place for you.
I've always had a crush on Richard Butler. He had that sexy androgynous 80s thing going on and I'm still here for it in 2024❤
Every time I hear something by The Furs I'm reminded of what a truly unique band they were in an equally incredible decade for Music !!!###
I played "Love My Way" at my wedding in 2000!!!! That's how good these guys are!!!
David Meredith well.. good job your wedding was 19 years ago! Today “love my way” is like a gay anthem thanks to that bollocks movie "call my name" or whatever, from last year. You know, I am not homophobic but these guys are just spoiling perfectly honest and good music for the rest of us (ABBA? the colors of the rainbow.. etc.) 🤦🏻♂️
@@pridiniz9303..."Love My Way" was a gay anthem the minute it came out & it was controversial even back then.
@@pridiniz9303 you are homophobic.
Wow that's so goals:'(
Guys all of you stop. Who cares if it is or isn't? I mean this guy shared something important and nobody's acknowledged it. Thanks for sharing man 👍
Perfect. So lucky to grow up in the 80s.
Just saw the Furs in Providence RI Wednesday. They were great. His voice never changes!
At 59, I look back at the music of my youth and struck with what a whimsical and romantic bunch we were.
This is my favorite Psychedelic Furs song.
"Angels fall like rain...and love is all of heaven away." Swoon-worthy lyrics. Gets me every time.
Yep
Someone once said to me you'll always remember the songs from your youth. You will always play those songs over and over again. I'm so glad my 20's youth is from 1980-1989. This song proves the 80s music will always be my muse.
A Timeless song that future generations will enjoy and appreciate like we all did back when......
