Always loved this song and the Bangles. Both Patty and Susanna Hoffs we're hot back then and still hot to this day!!! I always love the 80's girls dancing to the 80's music!! 🔥
I just love looking at Patty in this video. She was the type of girl many guys going to school during the 80s would fall for. Cute with a twist of elegant beauty. 👍
And she's firey as a confident female can get. I Love everything about her. Don't make me start talking about those eyes of hers. Marry me Patty Smythe!😊
I remember when they said our music had no soul and would be forgotten. Couldn’t have been further from the truth. 80’s was such a great time to be a teen.
Well........This song is good, I always liked it. And theres other great music from the 80's, but the quantity and quality is very small compared to the 70's and 60's. But on the other hand, the music of the 80's towers over the 90's, and it's all gone straight to hell ever since
So did the 50's 60's and 70's. Those decades had talent, no need for this autotune crap which is focused more on image than talent. Yeah, the 80s rocked too.
My 30 year old daughter has always loved my 80's music, and we've been to see so many artists that began their careers in the 80's over the years. My best concert experience was seeing my, and her, favourite band, The Cure, together. ❤❤
@@lemurianchick Is that supposed to be an insult? Not sure why you would post something like that. Yes, it was underrated when it came out, and IMHO, it still is, but I guess with those Tarot cards and black magic, you know everything, LOL.
Does anyone else think Fountains of Wayne's (Stacey's Mom) were the lovechild of Scandal and … The Kinks? Some band with some humor. Oh! Not-So-Weird Al Yankovic! Ideal... he's the best!
I agree, it is past tense. Too bad she couldn't keep her youthful looks. By the way, my late sister looked almost exactly like her. She had the same "meanness" as well. Furthermore, when Patty is crooning about her heart can't stand the pain, my sister died of a heart infection {infective myocarditis}. Even weirder, on Wikipedia it says this song is 3 minutes and 46 seconds long. You might think and? This is 226 seconds. {3×60+46=226}. My father died on June 22, or 22/6 like 226. The title of this song is almost funeral ready - Goodbye to you! My sister died on 7.16.2016 and my father died 6.22.2023. This song came out in 1982 or 1983, years before any of my family misfortunes.
I've told my kids and their friends that the 80's were a magical time. Not only did we know how to party, but we had fantastic music to go with it. 80's music still rules and rocks!!!
U Guys took Words🗣Right Outta My Mouth😲This Song Exemplifies & Epitomizes The 80’s .Still Killer till This Day 👍 I❤️Miss That Period of My Life.Sooo Much Fun.The 80’s We’re A Blast!
I certainly appreciated this!! My first year of MTv, this wonderful video was played 500 times. There were less than a hundred music videos in the early years, so Duran Duran and Men at Work also played over and over :-(
Thanks guys, also why would 3.2 thousand people dislike this amazing song?! Either these people dislike every good video in existence or they are just that stupid.
I graduated from high school in 1981. And this song to me has always been one of the all-time great '80s hits! Totally personifies the time frame! To this day one of my favorites!
Same here n lost my virginity to a 23 yo woman, 2 years short of Patty's age back then. I also just turned 59 a couple weeks ago, Sept 24. Absolutely loved Patty Smyth.
And there were tonnes of those, the decade was so great, but it's utterly true that the vast majority are the ones barely ANYONE goes on about or bothers remembering by acts no one goes on about or bothers remembering. But in case you worried about ambiguity, I agree this is a cool song.
@@NephilimFree Not really, it just comes across as so. I simply meant that if my comment meant I was disagreeing with liking this song or the group, then I wasn't.
Still trying to understand the reason so many people are going nuts for Taylor Swift.. she is getting way too much publicity and credit.. Patty Smyth is such an amazing combination of talent, beauty and oomph that is unmatched today.. her Warrior song didn't crack the top 50 in the US Billboard top 100 for 1984.. it was number 51 Think about that for a minute... And the quality of the No:1 hits of today.. We are all thankful for the 80s and the evergreen memories it provided us

You are not the only one. I hope. In my group of friends, I am the only one. I am 51. All my friends have flocked to that new shit like sheep. And never had much more of anything exciting before it (hmm...)
Patty Smyth; Joan Jett; Stevie Nicks; Pat Benatar; Debbie Harry; Ann & Nancy Wilson; Madonna; Annie Lennox; Terri Nunn So many beautiful rocker chicks from the late 70's-80s.
I see people loving Patty and the 80's music. I was lucky enough to see her live on an 80's cruise just before the shutdown of everything. Literally pulled into FL the day before they shut the port down. She can still put on an incredible show. Still looks hot, still has energy, still has a great voice! She was one of my favorite acts on the cruise!
She is SO adorable! I love those cute little silly moves and her facial expressions and her powerful voice in such a feisty cute little package! This song is great :-)
She was so cute... so sassy... and yes, probably had one of the most underrated voices ever. Patty! One of the best pop songs of its - or any - generation.
The dance move Patty does at 0:35 is so damn cute. I remember my girlfriend (now my wife) doing the same move while we were dancing in the clubs 1982-1986. Loved it!
A teen girl asked me a few years ago if the 80's were like she sees in movies and music vids and her mom's yearbook. I told her "Yes", it was just like you see in the movies and it was awesome! Truly the best time to grow up in the history of the world.
The 80's and early 90's were the best years of my life!!! I graduated in '84 and lived the life, being a young Marine stationed in Coronado and Camp Pendleton!!! Wouldn't trade it for anything.
My God! How are females ever going to lead with their insecurities ? When are women going to realize that men want women for who they are and not for who they are not? Who the hell do you think drives the fashion industry and everything else? You want respect wear pant suits and get your ass too work. Come to work with your tits and ass hanging out, blame yourself. Knuckle up and make it in this world without crying foul. What a joke. Oprah for president..... bring it! What a joke! Eat a bowl of soup and slap a big tampon on that fat pussy, and negotiate with about nuclear arms. Hahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah.
Did anybody see the time when the Grammys tried to put Taylor Swift in a duet with Stevie Nicks and Stevie refused to lip sych and just blew her off the stage with that, awesome, big voice? Poor girl had no idea what to do.
Forever MPH to see a beautiful young woman with a would a intelligent comment keep it real stay true to yourself that's who we ever want to be not phonies in the world like there is today God bless you and may you keep listening to good music that you like thank you for listening The Music Man sincerely Ed
I agree 100%. Somebody I know was talking about that they liked The Weeknd of the newer bands. My response was that The Weeknd's best song would just be mediocre compared to thousands of songs from the 80s. And 70s and 60s for that matter.
back when you actually needed talent to play and get noticed, not just hit play on a f*ing laptop and 3000 muppets go wild like you just invented the electrical grid.
This video is probably one of the best videos and songs i have seen . 1.The hair and style is hot and cute 2. She expresses charisma and sheer attitude in just one room.3. She promotes flair 4. When was the first or last time you heard a solo Keyboard with a hot dance? 5.They did not try to go over budget or over do it with gimmicks . Its all attitude!!!!!!!
Absolutely here for the talent and nostalgia! I'm so glad to have been young and happy during some of the best music. Patty and Scandal were one of the best! 💖🎶
Wow, I forgot just how BLOODY GREAT this song is. Incredible!! Love the keyboard sounds in there, too. Very much like the sounds on that first amazing KINGS album. And I love how the player references parts of the iconic solo in Del Shannon's "Runaway". Very clever. Patty and the band really shine here for sure.
My 9 year old daughter wanted to know what 80 dancing looked like. I said "Oh I know a perfect example" and showed her this video. Now she loves the song and dances just like that to it all the time! 😊
Unless you experienced this decade growing up young kids today will never understand how special the 80's was and a decade that contributed so much in both music, fashion, and technology. Our decade started what young people take for granted. Rock on my 80's peeps!!!!
people tend to romanticize the past, but ...goddamn...that decade was one hell of a great time on every level. no one can't take that away from those of us who got in on it by the sheer luck of timing.
I'm from the 80s. The popular fashion was awful and so was most of the popular music. Technological progress got infected with a festering sore of subversive anti-human ideologues who feel righteous destroying everything you love. It certainly wasn't the worst decade though.
Class of 1985 here. I love being Generation X. The last great generation without technology being rammed your throat. When you left the house they had to wait for you to show up again. They didn't call you on the road. Don't get me wrong I love technology and glad I am able to experience having every song ever recorded in my pocket but i remember hauling around my record collection too and I'm glad i experienced the difference. You tell that to a kid now and they're all "Huh?" It was a great time the 80's. I'm glad i was in it
Class of '85 here to kids today have no idea how good it was. Like going to record stores and spending hours looking thru the albums, or hitting the local arcades...damn they were good times!!
“These last few weeks of holding on, the days are dull, the nights are long” - poetry that sums up exactly what it feels like when a relationship is over yet you’re still trying to collect the pieces and save it.
Patty Smyth has the perfect voice for hard rock/new wave. She's in the same echelon as Ann Wilson and Linda Ronstadt. Unfortunately Scandals 's 1984's hit, "Beat of a Heart❤", doesn't garner the respect it deserves......
Summer 2014 in WA this amazing woman came out into the audience at SteMichelle and sang this 3 feet away from me to my face whilst I was in shock. I'm 29 and seeing Patty up close was just like watching this video. I've been a fan since I was a kid in the 80s. She looked amazing and sounded more astonishingly better than I could have ever expected! Awesome woman and performer! ❤❤❤❤❤
I remember taping this video on the VHS when I was 14 - I thought Patty Smyth was SO hot! I hate that I'm about to turn 50 but THANK GOD I grew up in the '80s!
Was living in Houston, TX back in '82-'83 and got to see the Kinks. Lo and behold. Scandal opened for them. Was a party concert, but Scandal did a damn good job opening, they came out for an encore! The Kinks, ROCKED that night. God, has it really been, almost 35 years? HOLY FREJOLES BATMAN!!!!
+gregory andonian Yes, sir! It has really been 35 years! I try not to think about the 80's too much. If I did, then I'd really feel old! God bless you, Gregory!
When I see this video, it brings back such a wonderful time. The eighties was an awesome time to be young and Patti Smyth delivering the goods and her good looks and charm go great with her voice.
@@josephwatson8448 I picture a guy who is off his rocker spewing a socio diatribe about class triggered by an 80s video featuring Patty Smythe. I hate to see what unrelated socio commentary will be triggered by you watching Boy George video.🤮
Patty Smyth reminds me a the dark eyed girl you went out with a couple of times in high school and then remembered her for the rest of your life. All of us have one.
I`m a "children" of the Eighties (1968). The best time ever! The girls, the mood everywhere. Incomparable with the times today. Everything was better. But we are young, we are beautiful and now? Greetings from Germany-Bavaria.
Seeing her dance without being pretentious or overtly sensual and just getting lost in the music is wholesome on a level that's completely absent now. Younger generations berate the older for saying that it was a better time. Guess you had to be there.
The younger generation has been brainwashed but many are not buying the nonsense. Many young people coming to salvation & truth in Christ. Patti rocks though.....
My gosh, she is sooooo fine! Hello to you Patty Smyth!❤
She was a gorgeous woman back in the day she still is.
She'd have made a phenomenal pornstar.
Always loved this song and the Bangles. Both Patty and Susanna Hoffs we're hot back then and still hot to this day!!! I always love the 80's girls dancing to the 80's music!! 🔥

This was one of the best "last songs" of the night in the clubs back then. Still is gold today....💜
Pure and unadulterated 80’s. Great song !
When music was fun and uplifting. Not this dredge we have today.
I remember when they said our music had no soul and would be forgotten. Couldn’t have been further from the truth. 80’s was such a great time to be a teen.
Just missed it, but apparently my parents thought the same 3 kids born to teens in 4 years 😂
Hells to the yeah!
I was there , and while there was some forgettable stuff, in general it was pretty good , some people were freaked out by the new wave stuff..

Im sure everyone thinks their generation was the best. But darn it, mine was! The 80s rocked!
I was born in 1957, so the 60s, 70s, _and_ 80s are my music. How lucky am I!!
Born in 58 so the 70’s was my thing. But I’m telling you, the 80’s were just phenomenal. And honestly, the last decade of innocence.
So did the 50's 60's and 70's. Those decades had talent, no need for this autotune crap which is focused more on image than talent. Yeah, the 80s rocked too.
Born in 90's, you re so right sir, your generation's THE BEST
Indeed, although the 70s were awesome also... I did love the 80s
Patty was absolutely scrumptious here. And that voice.......
Love her
This video never gets old. Patty is timeless!
McEnroe's hitting that!

You got that right!!! I always liked this song. It reminds me of some of the things that I need to say good bye to, like addictions.

The song. The way she looks. The guys in the band. The way she sings. One of the great videos of all time.
The bass player is rockin' 80s cool...lol
I love this song and the band and Patty, so awesome to watch this classic video ❤! 80’s Rule !!
She lives on the borderline of both physical and spiritual relm
She's got sexy legs, man!
OK, but this is like her "Peter Parker/ Diana Prince mode" compared to her/their "WARRIOR" video.
This Song Never Gets Old!!❤
If you grew up in the 80’s, and now have kids that still love 80’s music because of you, you raised them right!! 😊❤🎉

Her voice and looks are perfect!
Que suerte la tuya
Everything the 80's was is encapsulated in this song. The sounds. The fashions. The scene. All of it.
I had about three of those dresses. Need to bring them back
Does anyone else think Fountains of Wayne's (Stacey's Mom) were the lovechild of Scandal and … The Kinks? Some band with some humor. Oh! Not-So-Weird Al Yankovic! Ideal... he's the best!
@@marlenedryden9431 Fountains of Wayne was a staple on Rt. 46 for years.
Before everything got fkd right up
This song and video are a crash course on 80’s music, fashion, looks, vibes, feelings and attitude.
One of the most underrated voices in music history. The 80's was full of stiff competition but she just has that voice!
Eddie Van Halen actually offered her the lead singing spot after David Lee Roth left, even though she only had a two word name. She declined.
She is belting it out but it is effortless
@#PrisonForJohnnyDepp Spamming this comment will not build sympathy for Amber Heard. What are you doing?

Patty Smyth looked a lot like Linda Ronstadt. How I love the '80s bands. They put their heart and soul into the music!
Lisa Cunningham
Well, you're a hottie yourself, Lisa!
I noticed a Linda Ronstadt resemblance too. Especially the eyes.
Sounded a lot like Linda Ronstadt. Small with a huge voice
Damn, I noticed that also. I always liked Patty and her energy, a sort of race tuned Linda Ronstadt.
I was thinking the same- especially with the close up of her eyes.
My God she was beautiful.
still is!
I agree, it is past tense.
Too bad she couldn't
keep her youthful looks.
By the way, my late sister
looked almost exactly
like her.
She had the same "meanness"
as well. Furthermore, when
Patty is crooning about her heart
can't stand the pain, my sister
died of a heart infection
{infective myocarditis}.
Even weirder, on Wikipedia
it says this song is 3 minutes
and 46 seconds long. You might
think and? This is 226 seconds.
{3×60+46=226}. My father died
on June 22, or 22/6 like 226.

The dance move Patty does at 0:35 is so damn cute. I remember my girlfriend (now my wife) doing the same move while we were dancing in the clubs 1982-1986. Loved it!
A teen girl asked me a few years ago if the 80's were like she sees in movies and music vids and her mom's yearbook. I told her "Yes", it was just like you see in the movies and it was awesome! Truly the best time to grow up in the history of the world.
Don't rub it in😅
Truly a wide open decade.
The 80's and early 90's were the best years of my life!!! I graduated in '84 and lived the life, being a young Marine stationed in Coronado and Camp Pendleton!!! Wouldn't trade it for anything.
@@thebronzetoo cool, I also graduated in 84, and as a young airman was stationed in England.
It was truly a great time to be a rowdy kid with tons of energy........
Between her and Susanna Hoffs…Lordy!
It's refreshing to see female singers like Patty Smyth who have their real faces, real bodies, and real TALENT!!! Long live the 80's!!
My God! How are females ever going to lead with their insecurities ? When are women going to realize that men want women for who they are and not for who they are not? Who the hell do you think drives the fashion industry and everything else? You want respect wear pant suits and get your ass too work. Come to work with your tits and ass hanging out, blame yourself. Knuckle up and make it in this world without crying foul. What a joke. Oprah for president..... bring it! What a joke! Eat a bowl of soup and slap a big tampon on that fat pussy, and negotiate with about nuclear arms. Hahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah.
The 80s will never die!
Did anybody see the time when the Grammys tried to put Taylor Swift in a duet with Stevie Nicks and Stevie refused to lip sych and just blew her off the stage with that, awesome, big voice? Poor girl had no idea what to do.
Forever MPH to see a beautiful young woman with a would a intelligent comment keep it real stay true to yourself that's who we ever want to be not phonies in the world like there is today God bless you and may you keep listening to good music that you like thank you for listening The Music Man sincerely Ed
Very well written! I forgot how beautiful women used to be!
There’s a common theme that runs strong in the comments. We all miss the great times and the music of the 80’s. I do love UA-cam for keeping it alive.
AMEN TO THAT!!!
No one want to leave the Party….
They don't make em like her anymore
U said it, I'm a diff 80s baby and all I want to do is go back cuz I don't understand this world
But seriously It’s a POS song 😂
The 80s! Wish I could turn back time!!
When a kiss was still a kiss.
Yes me too.
This generation could NEVER come up with anything better than songs like this in the 80's
True words! 🎶 ❤
I agree 100%. Somebody I know was talking about that they liked The Weeknd of the newer bands. My response was that The Weeknd's best song would just be mediocre compared to thousands of songs from the 80s. And 70s and 60s for that matter.
yeah nothing but boy's singing in groups about nothing now...
And record them without "auto tune"
back when you actually needed talent to play and get noticed, not just hit play on a f*ing laptop and 3000 muppets go wild like you just invented the electrical grid.
Wonderful song and era. R.I.P., to members of Scandal who passed away.
This video is probably one of the best videos and songs i have seen . 1.The hair and style is hot and cute 2. She expresses charisma and sheer attitude in just one room.3. She promotes flair 4. When was the first or last time you heard a solo Keyboard with a hot dance? 5.They did not try to go over budget or over do it with gimmicks . Its all attitude!!!!!!!
Plus it looks like they were having an absolute BLAST when they were doing it!
Well said!!
BTW lots of solo keyboards in the 80's! And imagine enjoying this song when it first came out! It rocked!! We had an AWESOME time!
Very pretty Patti
Very underrated 80s hit.
The 80's ruled.
Always will
The whole decade of the 80s was spot on and awesome to the core!! There will never be another decade to even come close to the 80s!!
I wish I could go back in to the 80's now if I have a time machine
I could argue the 60s comes up bigger, but the 80s is damn close.
And my vote is for the 70's. But nonetheless, the 1980's was the last decade of innocence and optimism for the United States.
The answer is "80's for the win". Yes, you are correct.
80’s music and bands were super gay…. Aside from this song.
Man I miss 80's music. This song is one example of that incredible 80's sound. Where does all the time go?
Wish I knew. It does not seem possible that 40 years have come and gone.
An incredible song to live by say goodbye to all the negative people in your life.
Oh my God I missed the 80s. Love this one. Need an update. This is 2024 if you’re listening, you’re awesome.
You got an update from me. Patty Smyth could have sang anything, Pat Benatar, Blondie, - I just love my divas!!! :)
" Here for the 🎼🎶"
🙋♂️🎸📻
goodbye ✌you
Take care .😉
You didn't miss anything but a Flock of Seagulls. Ozzy Osbourne was the best. No glam - no shlam. Just damn good songs with no lipstick.
Thank you 😆
Absolutely here for the talent and nostalgia! I'm so glad to have been young and happy during some of the best music. Patty and Scandal were one of the best! 💖🎶
Wow, I forgot just how BLOODY GREAT this song is. Incredible!! Love the keyboard sounds in there, too. Very much like the sounds on that first amazing KINGS album. And I love how the player references parts of the iconic solo in Del Shannon's "Runaway". Very clever. Patty and the band really shine here for sure.
The keyboards on the album are Paul Schaffer of Late Night Fame and SNL...😍
@@nothingheremovealong6751 I am pretty sure Benji King played the keyboards.
@@nothingheremovealong6751 +
I just read about the Paul Schaefer connection and had to hear the song again. Been too long....
Nice keyboard comparison to Runaway!
I watch and listen to this song over and over- there is something about this never gets old!
Saw "Scandle" in concert in 1984 with "The Romantics" those were the greatest of times
Soo true, a good feeling.
Ikr. Pointer sisters-"neutron dance "is another one
My 9 year old daughter wanted to know what 80 dancing looked like. I said "Oh I know a perfect example" and showed her this video. Now she loves the song and dances just like that to it all the time! 😊
Why is it that We don´t hear such great songs in the "XXI CENTURY" anymore ! 80´s music is UNBEATABLE !!
Because we have rap and country and they are both crap
It honestly is around.....ya just gotta look for it.
Unless you experienced this decade growing up young kids today will never understand how special the 80's was and a decade that contributed so much in both music, fashion, and technology. Our decade started what young people take for granted. Rock on my 80's peeps!!!!
You Said It Perfect 👍👌✌️💞😂🤣
people tend to romanticize the past, but ...goddamn...that decade was one hell of a great time on every level. no one can't take that away from those of us who got in on it by the sheer luck of timing.
The 80's were the official end of The 50's...The 60's and 70's, were just 'intermission'.
@port nut mnn
N.
I'm from the 80s. The popular fashion was awful and so was most of the popular music. Technological progress got infected with a festering sore of subversive anti-human ideologues who feel righteous destroying everything you love. It certainly wasn't the worst decade though.
What a great decade to be young! If I did nothing else with my life, I am thankful for the good times I had during this period
And the tunes
pretty much sums it up.
It really was a great time to be young, probably the best times of my life.
MY WORDS EXACTLY, AND I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING BUT THE MUSIC WAS GREAT 1982 YEAR RULED!
@@fairweatherrider1 Mine too
In college back then, no pandemic, no restrictions, no worries - just fun and great music.
You forgot AIDS
XD
Boom roasted
Because people controlled the government not the other way around.
@@karlreichert9051 that's also false.
Class of 1985 here. I love being Generation X. The last great generation without technology being rammed your throat. When you left the house they had to wait for you to show up again. They didn't call you on the road. Don't get me wrong I love technology and glad I am able to experience having every song ever recorded in my pocket but i remember hauling around my record collection too and I'm glad i experienced the difference. You tell that to a kid now and they're all "Huh?" It was a great time the 80's. I'm glad i was in it
Class of '85 here to kids today have no idea how good it was. Like going to record stores and spending hours looking thru the albums, or hitting the local arcades...damn they were good times!!
just saw a video of Patty singing this in 2020 - almost 40 years later and she still sounds great!!
Like any really good music ..you know when it's hot & you know when it's not...40 years & Patty's is still smokin' hot.
“These last few weeks of holding on, the days are dull, the nights are long” - poetry that sums up exactly what it feels like when a relationship is over yet you’re still trying to collect the pieces and save it.
If this wasn't your generation you missed out. Still love Patty 2023
Going thru a breakup? Sing this 100x a time you instantly will feel better!!!! oh yeah!
Fo sho ..lol
Yup😂
I want to go back to the 80's. Who's with me?
I Still Listen To 80 And 90 Music .Today Music will Never Match Ups.
Me too, that's all I listen to, 80's and 90's music. The music of today sucks BIG TIME.
If you are talking about Donald Trump, I agree with you what's he doing to the U.S is spilling over to Canada where I'm from.
Let's do it
Me, me. I still have the 80's clothes hanging in my closet somewhere .
Patty Smyth has the perfect voice for hard rock/new wave. She's in the same echelon as Ann Wilson and Linda Ronstadt. Unfortunately Scandals 's 1984's hit, "Beat of a Heart❤", doesn't garner the respect it deserves......
This song 🎶 and Patty never get old! It’s fantastic music that we can no longer find now in any way shape or form!
What about the giraffe 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😃😃😃😄😄😅😅
Look up Mona Lisa Twins, you can thank me later.
My LORD!!! What a voice!!! Really beauuuuutiful.......
ok
Summer 2014 in WA this amazing woman came out into the audience at SteMichelle and sang this 3 feet away from me to my face whilst I was in shock. I'm 29 and seeing Patty up close was just like watching this video. I've been a fan since I was a kid in the 80s. She looked amazing and sounded more astonishingly better than I could have ever expected! Awesome woman and performer! ❤❤❤❤❤
you are so lucky
The 80s really were great. I was teen through them. Fun memories and tons of them.
The 80s-does anyone remember the “decade of joy”? We need it back ASAP!
It's weird that I forgot how good this song was, and how crazy cute Patty Smyth was.
Thank you for your music Patty Smyth - you helped an entire generation get through tough times in their lives - will never forget you.
I remember taping this video on the VHS when I was 14 - I thought Patty Smyth was SO hot! I hate that I'm about to turn 50 but THANK GOD I grew up in the '80s!
Reason why people of all ages still listen to these songs. 80s was by far the best decade for music. Mtv went a long way of helping.
Was living in Houston, TX back in '82-'83 and got to see the Kinks. Lo and behold. Scandal opened for them. Was a party concert, but Scandal did a damn good job opening, they came out for an encore! The Kinks, ROCKED that night. God, has it really been, almost 35 years? HOLY FREJOLES BATMAN!!!!
+gregory andonian I was also in Houston in 82..good times before the bust!
+gregory andonian too bad they didn't go to the Ocean club
LakewoodDallas yea, damn good times.
+gregory andonian Yes, sir! It has really been 35 years! I try not to think about the 80's too much. If I did, then I'd really feel old! God bless you, Gregory!
Thank you Marie.
The 80's music is some of the best ever.
I love this song. Scandal was one of my favorite groups, so glad to see Patty.
Hi Linda hope you're doing fine?
When I see this video, it brings back such a wonderful time. The eighties was an awesome time to be young and Patti Smyth delivering the goods and her good looks and charm go great with her voice.
My god, It's because of women like this that kings raged wars against other kingdoms from time to time, such a beauty.
That would be Susanna Hoffs.
@@eecortese Now theres another one that makes me walk like an egyptian ,,,
@@jaime57473 I dig, brother. Those eyes!
Where Katy Perry got her stuff
And yet she married John McEnroe
80s totally rocked. Music back then had so much life.
Every type.
John Dyer 80s absolutely ruled the greatest decade in men history
Ray Sagastiano hate to say it but I take the seventies over the mid-nineties enough
@@derickarnold3301 I love the 70's,80's & 90's music. There was so much different stuff happening
Before strippers, pimps, criminals and drug dealers took over the music scene.
I was 13 when this song came out and fell absolutely in love with Patty! I’m standing in my music room and jamming on the guitar to this song.🥰🤘
Heck yes me too
Heck yeah 😊
As a kid I had no idea what this song was about. Just loved the spacey dark images ❤
Song was huge. Great 80’s memories of Beer drinking and girls, it was an awesome time. My condolences to today’s 20 whatever’s.
Picture a 57yr old man CRANKING THIS UP at a red light. Love ya Patty.
And...
Picture a 1% millionaire socialist not paying his employees and wanting to be President of the USA.
joseph watson you must be a blast at parties....
Funny how much I miss the real MTV 🙂
@@josephwatson8448 I picture a guy who is off his rocker spewing a socio diatribe about class triggered by an 80s video featuring Patty Smythe. I hate to see what unrelated socio commentary will be triggered by you watching Boy George video.🤮
The 80's WERE THIS FUN! Imagine flipping on your TV and you are watching these videos! It was awesome!
Remember scheduling your day around watching the video countdowns on MTV?
In 1985 they still played music on MTV. Love that nostalgic song.
Pattisita es tan Hermosa. Greeting from Lima, Peru!!!
Musica de la ptm para bailar y saltar no dejo de escucharla todos los dias cocinando como no existe esa epoca de oro. Saludos desde lima peru
Patty Smyth reminds me a the dark eyed girl you went out with a couple of times in high school and then remembered her for the rest of your life. All of us have one.
man ain't that the truth!!
Yeah I looked up mine on Facebook..... She's on her 5th Marriage .....
Yeah, and for me, her name was really Patty Smith!
I wonder if any of the guys l went out in High School remember me.
@@monicaritvo I'm sure they do!
the 80's !!! God i miss that time. and love patti, so much talent.
brian centi ya early 80's!!!
brian centi I loved the 80s great times and great fun
Who is the guitarist?
I miss the 80's the way music was memorable it was the soundtract of life
Patti Smith or Patty Smith? Two totally different musicians Patti kicked ass!
I`m a "children" of the Eighties (1968). The best time ever! The girls, the mood everywhere. Incomparable with the times today. Everything was better. But we are young, we are beautiful and now? Greetings from Germany-Bavaria.
Born in '71. Graduated 🎓 '89. Those were sweet, innocent, happy times.
Seeing her dance without being pretentious or overtly sensual and just getting lost in the music is wholesome on a level that's completely absent now. Younger generations berate the older for saying that it was a better time. Guess you had to be there.
Hell yeah, man!! You right on target!
@@MedicMike1964 Maybe not overly sensual but pretty sexy nonetheless because she is a beautiful woman and talented.
The younger generation has been brainwashed but many are not buying the nonsense. Many young people coming to salvation & truth in Christ. Patti rocks though.....
Real music , real beauty and real voices. Yes this is all that. 😊
Nah bruh the 80s were the best and I can never be there
Quintessential 80S!
My LORD!!! What a voice!!! Really beauuuuutiful.......
