This bit of the song is so technical for 1981 I don't know if there were any commercial sequencers or MIDI were available, if they were it would have cost a fortune. I was only 10 when I heard this.... Sunday night top 20 , it was something special right off the bat, Passing Strangers has a section like this but more of an Arpeggio effect. Ultravox were way ahead of anyone else in the Uk for synths for 1981.
I'm just so freaking blessed to have had all the fun of the 80s you can never repeat the brilliant music atmosphere and amazing life we lived people don't have a clue unless you have lived it ❤️❤️❤️❤️ xxx
Imagine seeing this in your early teens on Top of the pops the deep bass thumping out from the wooden television cabinet That was our life in the 80s on a Thursday night
Oooooh yes. I had the hots for him at the time. But there were so many gorgeous men in pop music in the 80s. I was a teenage girl in England during the 80s so I was damn lucky.
40 years.....only seems like yesterday! Loved it when I was 11 years old and love it even more at 51. Midge Ure you are an absolute legend and thank you for bringing us this classic,I’m so glad I was able to fully experience the 80s music scene!
Yes music took a bad turn years ago , we will never experience the 80s ever again those days and the music have sadly passed us by , I wish everyone from back in those days all to be well , we are no longer young anymore 😢

I am just about to turn 71yrs old next Saturday and Vienna still sounds fantastic musks today can learn a lot by listening to Vienna,it is absolutely brilliant song writing. Rengards, Doug Hughes Williamstown Nth Australia❤
I learnt the violin when I was a youngest, married a pianist and have always liked violins and piano together. Really outstanding for the New Wave period, incorporating a classical theme too. The Beatles and ELO did the same.
Everything is perfect in this song: instruments, synthesizers, the lyrics...this song brings to me a cold and emotional atmosphere at the same time. Fantastic! One of the best songs of all the times!
The cost of making the video clip of this masterpiece was considered one of the most expensive ones of the world. And it was worthy. God, how i miss the 80s.
This song truly heralded the arrival of the 1980's with it's futurism, new romantiscism, completely unique neon aesthetic and pioneering yet unforgettable music. This timeless classic, was for me the absolute apex of Ultravox and one of the most memorable tracks of a decade that I will remember as my most favourite period of time in my life. If I could wind back my Casio calculator watch, I would choose to live in the 1980's till the end of time. Vienna and Ultravox forever. Amen.
Over 30 years ahead of its time. This song is pure excellence Should have been best song at the Grammys. Midge Ure his vocal range incredible I. Still have this album
One of those songs where I wish I had a massive sound system, a lonely house in the middle of nowhere, volume high and let that voice just poke holes in my soul.
I was in Vienna 1-10.05.1970 for the trams. Returned 10-11.09.2021 to meet the Love of my Life again after walking in the wilderness for over 40 years...
I was just in Vienna for a tech conference and all the way from the airport and back again, I could only sing and hum this song to myself and in video clips that I sent to friends and family. Absolute classic!
It "still stands up"? Because in your mind new stuff "kicks ass" and anythng older than ten years "sucks"? Why do I get the sense you've never read a book?
@@kentjensen4504 Uh...I haven't regularly listened to Pop Radio since the 90's dude. I grew up IN the 80's you know. I prefer 80's Pop over any of this dreck they dare call music today. P.S. My favorite book series is The Lord of the Rings Trilogy FYI. I also love The Hitchhiker's Guide To the Galaxy. What do you think I am? A Millennial? I'm 50 years old Boo.
@@kentjensen4504 Why would you assume he has never read a book? To say a song from 1980's still holds up given the innovations and growth in electronic music is not an insult in any way and its also true.
There are excellent songs then there are classics that live the test of time like a Roman built road. Thanks all in Ultravox for what you have given us. We thank you.
George Martin, the producer of the Beatles, worked with only one band again and that was Ultravox. Very proud that I followed this magnificent four by my 15, and that means all of my life.
Epic masterpiece, and that video still chills me as much as it did in 1981 . Very lucky I was a teen in the 80s and experienced that decade of wonderful music
This will FOREVER be an absolute MASTERPIECE. This song, imho - is everything a song should be, or as friend once said to me in the studio where I was working on an album with my old band "You know you've got something when you get goosebumps just listening to it!" Ahhh, to have a time machine to go back to 1980 and relive EVERYTHING again...
What wasn't a masterpiece is that stupid song Shaddap You Face, yet it would seem lots of idiotic people thought it was worthy of No.1 in the UK, relegating this song to No.2. Sh!t, even John Lennon got bumped by that stupid song by Joe Dolce.
Took out the traces leading the horse though, at 18 seconds in. There on the DVD release I have, and coincidentally was thinking of this track today as well, pulled out the DVD to play it as well.
It's very good... but nowhere near that good. I do not know what the 'best band of all time' or the ''greatest song of all time' is, but I do know that this is not it.
@@Uncommon_Senze To me 'the best song ever by the best band ever' would be if the Stranglers with Hugh Cornwell singing did a cover of 'Imitation of Life'. Maybe as it's now impossible, an AI might be able to create that in the future 🤔
Saw Midge about 15 years ago in Philly at some 80s tour. When he sang this we all held our breath, then he hit the "Vienna!" bit and nailed it. We roared with applause and he looked very moved by it. ❤
I’m here in November 2024 and going to see Midge Ure in concert at Sheffield .. this awesome classic always gives me goosebumps and makes me want to cry .. I loved Ultravox the 80s was my era .. see you Saturday Midge mwah x
I played this at my big brother Tony Marshall’s funeral. He told me years ago he wanted this song. I loved this song before that but now love it even more
We walked in the cold air Freezing breath on a window pane Lying and waiting A man in the dark in a picture frame So mystic and soulful A voice reaching out in a piercing cry It stays with you until The feeling has gone, only you and I It means nothing to me This means nothing to me Oh, Vienna The music is weaving Haunting notes, pizzicato strings The rhythm is calling Alone in the night as the daylight brings A cool, empty silence The warmth of your hand and a cold grey sky It fades to the distance The image has gone, only you and I It means nothing to me This means nothing to me Oh, Vienna This means nothing to me This means nothing to me Oh, Vienna
I adore this song. I came upon it by accident in the 90s on a compilation 80s cd that I bought. It’s one of those songs that is hauntingly beautiful and stays with you. I’ll forget about it for a while and then someone plays it and it just comes flooding back. This was their best song hands down and video was actually pretty cool for 1981.
Sooooo beautiful! Was a young teenage girl when this came out. The 50s through the 80s set the highest impossible bar for the best of the best natural, real phenomenal - blues, soul, rock and roll, soft rock ballads, rock opera, rockabilly, and so many other gorgeous talents that take our breathe away 💖💖💖💖💖
Greetings from Vienna😁 This song captures my city perfectly...Vienna is a bit 'dark' and mysterious. Midge Ure's voice and the arrangement of the song is just perfect ❤️
Without doubt a true classic. Why can't this be re-released now and then it would go to number one this time around-if only?! Thank you so much anyway!!
EPIC TRACK!!! THE ANTHEM OF THE 80s!! Its travelling back to the days before shit hit the fan!! A masterpiece that is impossible to cover!! Thanks ULTRAVOX!!!!!!
The harmony makes my brain melt. This song feels like a huge question mark - oh, why does this sound that way? and why this emotional shift so suddenly? and why...? And I cannot stop, I have to listen again and again.
Watch midge ure last night at hall for Cornwall Truro, still one of the best live performing artists going. Fantastic concert & hopefully will carry on making brilliant music just like Vienna 👍👍👍
I just finished Season 2 of *Vienna Blood* and it's nice to see this video again... *Sublimely dramatic!* And Midge's voice soaring on that note is thrilling!
Ich bin wiener und ultravox Vienna ist für uns Wiener eine große Liebeshymne an unsere Stadt❤️. Danke Midge, dass du uns so viel gibst. Danke auch für deine Liebe zu Wien, zu Österreich. ❤️ Wir geben es dir zurück und wenn wir alle singen:, This means nothing to me ooohh Vienna!!! Er singt nicht nur von WIEN, Midge lebt Wien, er lebt die Dekadenz, er ist ist bei uns in Wien❤️❤️❤️
I always think they should play the Vienna song by ultravox when aeroplanes land in this incredible city. In my view this is quite simply one of the best pop songs of the 1980's. I especially like the instrumental bit with all the strings.
One of the best pop songs EVER! It's 2023 & it still sounds great.
There's a guy at my work called Harvey Henna. We call him Ultravox.
RIGHT ON - AGREE 1000 %
Totally agree. Great all round.

That part where the beat picks up & the violins come in, my God, bloody magical.

The MIDI wasn’t around so they had to rehearsal endlessly to get the timing right

Named our daughter Vienna after this very song, she turned 20 yesterday. Fantastic song, still moves me…
You've both got great taste, my sister is also named Vienna, or 'Vi' for short she was 20 last month ^^
Well done!! 😊
@ClownWorldPrisoner Oopsie daisies. That's not good. Here have a free hug ☺ ^^
good job you're not a black lace fan - she'd be called Agadoo
That's beautiful. What a great name. I love it when inspiration comes from the things we love and cherish. God bless your daughter.
Vienna! I remember when this album came out in 1981! So brilliant & still sounds awesome after all that time. RIP Chris Cross
1980
I am now 62 and this takes me back to being 20 in a flash. Adored it then, and adore it now. So ahead of its time. Still gives me goosebumps.
Me too. It’s our generation.
It takes me back to being 11 loved it then love it now
me 2
Me, too. I am so back in the UK listening to this over and over again.

Totally haunting, both of them. Classic Ultravox!
16 years old when this came out,I was just starting clubbing in Australia OMG what a time to be a young guy partying to music like this.
Still a fantastic song to this day! Midge Ure was a gorgeous looking man back then 😊👏

I remember it like it was yesterday. How have so many years slipped by and I never noticed. Great song, great voice, great group.
I was 13 when it was released and my cousins played it to me, I was moved intensely and do think it's the sound of the 80's.
Amen. Makes me so glad I was a teenager in the 80's
Yep this tune is king a beast of a tune you may say oh yea my son loves it to James bye haha oh viena
Ultravox...Erasure...Spandau Ballet...The Human League...Duran Duran...New Order...Great Synthpop Bands 80's From UK ! Greets From Poland ;-)

We walked in the cold air
Freezing breath on a window pane
Lying and waiting
A man in the dark in a picture frame
So mystic and soulful
A voice reaching out in a piercing cry
It stays with you until
The feeling has gone, only you and I
It means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
Oh, Vienna
The music is weaving
Haunting notes, pizzicato strings
The rhythm is calling
Alone in the night as the daylight brings
A cool, empty silence
The warmth of your hand and a cold grey sky
It fades to the distance
The image has gone, only you and I
It means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
Oh, Vienna
This means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
