I'm 54 and music of any kind never gets old, Tenderness sounds as zesty and fresh as it ever did. Classical music has survived hundreds of years and so can perfect pop songs such as this.
Yes on both and the lead singer of The Psychedlic Furs is another original voice as well. Also let's not forget Mr Peter Murphy!! What a time for music!!
52 here, same feeling, I can't believe I found this song, danced it with my gf at the time in different places..Great trip back in time, we definitely had a good generation
Most most definitely I enjoyed this movie when I was a young teenager in 85 and now that I'm old man I still watch it when it comes on and I laughed so much it's one of my favorite all-time movies he say fats man let me tell you my story crazy insane about this eighth grade bitch
General Public was an amazing song. I can remember I was deployed in 2001-2002 overseas, and a lot was going on in my life at that time - I received a lot of bad news and nothing I could do about it. I was listening to a music list and this song came on and out of nowhere brought on an emotional break down for about 2 hours (never had one before that ever, nor since). I guess it just reminded me of a lot of people and events. I still listen to the song regardless. But the fact this song did that I would say makes it a powerful tune.
So i was born when this song came out i didnt hear it till 1995 in clueless and loved it saw them in kent ohio a few years back and i was just in awe to see them live
So many of you lucky folks got to grow up with all this wonderful music and style. I wasn’t there, yet feel this ache of nostalgia for it. The world now… just not my scene. Dry as dust.
General Public, Tenderness,!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I love the male bands from the 80s and 90s and 2000s era. What a terrific artist group,!!!!
Remember watching this with my friend Kris Bell Sunday 8/19/1984 the day before college started. Even then you could feel something wonderful was in the air!
I remember being in a record store they played this new album. Me and my brother bought it right away. Well he’s deceased today and when I hear this 😢he’s still alive
@johnmicele3888 - I’m sorry for your loss. 😔 It looks as though hearing this song is more of a comfort for you than it is painful to you. I wish you peace. 🕊️
Yes, I had this album . The 80's was the best time for unity in music. It really brought people together. You had Culture Club and Cyndi Lauper on the soul chart.
Got a chance to see The Beat and Ranking Roger at a small club in Santa Clarita, CA shortly before he passed away. It was a great show and we had so much fun! RIP RR. Thanks for the memories!
Siempre me gustó esta canción desde la primera vez que lo llegué a escuchar .... Hoy de casualidad ví el nombre de este dúo ingles ...me trae sensaciones buenas General public.... Tenderness espectacular ...
I feel so lucky to have seen them live twice and saw them this week as The English Beat and just danced to this song. They're always touring. Go see them if you get the chance.
I was there the last night the English Beat ever played, they played for almost three hours asking the audience for suggestions… Long Island NY NASSAU Colosseum 1982 Six months later GENERAL PUBLIC General Public comes out wow!
I saw these guys in Tucson, AZ back in November 2018, I think. Such a great concert at 101 Toole. I hope they’ll come to Michigan because I want to enjoy their live music again
I don't know when to start or when to stop My luck's like a button I can't stop pushing it My head feels light But I'm still in the dark Seems like without tenderness There's something missing Tenderness Where is the Tenderness Where is it? I don't know where I am but I know I don't like it I open my mouth and out pops something spiteful Words are so cheap, but they can turn out expensive Words like conviction can turn into a sentence I held your hands Rings but none on that finger We danced and danced But I was scared to go much further with it Just half a chance Make sure that one night you're here but Next night you're not It always leaves me searching for a little Tenderness Where is the Tenderness Where is the Tenderness? Whistling in the graveyard Calling up your girlfriend Just trying to make her understand You're squeezing the telephone like it was her hand No question (so many questions) She's going to catch you out, boy It all seems so underhand Now she's the only thing that ever made You feel like a man, man, madman, madman Tenderness Where is the Tenderness Tenderness Tenderness Where is it? I held your hands Rings but none on that finger We danced and danced But I was scared to go much further with it Just half a chance Make sure that one night you're here but Next night you're not It always leaves me searching for a little Tenderness Where is the Tenderness? When you're sick to death of second best, pet Why should the morning always find you unimpressed? Is your love like a button? You can't stop pushing it? Oh this all night longing can be such a long time
Solo el escuchar el estribillo del inicio de este tema me eriza la piel, tenía apenas 11 añitos y jamás pensé que los 80s musicales marcarian mi vida para siempre , suertudo yo de haber nacido justo en la época bisagra de todas las épocas musicales....love 80s

The British made alot of amazing pop in the 80's.
Always.
100% agree
Facts
Yep . Also Tecno pop like Depeche Mode, Petshop Boys and New Order
They usually make the best music ever
The beat, the groove, the voice, the delivery. Classic 80s
Totally so true never be beaten
@mycatvelvet Hall & Oates was never this loose and energetic.
The baritone and the harmonies
I'm 54 and music of any kind never gets old, Tenderness sounds as zesty and fresh as it ever did. Classical music has survived hundreds of years and so can perfect pop songs such as this.
53 and I agree 🤙
Fifty-one here!!
54 here :D

Best decade for music ever! Creativity was flourishing back then.
SO true!
No doubt, glad I got to go through all of it
And so was magic.

Still listening to the song May 2024 love the song and video. I basically listen to it every day never gets old.🎉
Heard this for the first time last week and can’t turn it off 😊
Loved this song since Weird Science.
I still LOVE this after all these years. So many fun memories on the 80s!
Dave has one of the best voices in all of pop
Yes and I would add Steve Kilbey of The Church.
Yes on both and the lead singer of The Psychedlic Furs is another original voice as well.
Also let's not forget Mr Peter Murphy!!
What a time for music!!
RIP Ranking Roger. Thanks for the music and memories.
I wept
Sad news to hear that. Had no idea.
The 80s is where all the greatest music is and we all know it is 😎
Super agree
One of the best songs of the 80s.
Absolutely
Just watched Clueless for the second time today in like a year, and this song is still a great way to end that movie
I love the 80's so much, so happy to be apart of Gen-X! We are a unique breed for sure, the original cool kids. 😎
And we still are ☺️
@@JOESUBA122 we are and I want to go back. I will take the 90's too 😂
@@joannaprevost426 🤣💐
Many a day sitting in bumper to bumper on the😅 405 freeway in So 😊Cal rocking out to this song on KROQ.
The best station of the 80s hands down. Where I first heard bands like this in the early 80s. "Rock of the 80s, K-ROCK!"
@@Imagezone61 That's how I discovered Oingo Boingo and so many other bands
Yes indeed, also Starship's We built this City.
Rodney on the RoQ
Bless you Dave, for sharing that voice. Rest in Respect, Ranking Roger. ❤❤❤
The music I grew up with.
Junior high, '84. Good times!
High school, junior year, 85.
Great time indeed!
8th grade graduation 1984
The best of times
Sad to hear.. RIP Roger.. thanks for the great music.. your voice lives on.
Nothing comes close to 80s Bess life still puts butterflies in your stomach and tears in your eyes
Im nearly 50 and this still sounds amazing and gives me goosebumps like it did then 🤩💃
Remember when this stuff was a decade old and we thought that was a long time ago.
52 here, same feeling, I can't believe I found this song, danced it with my gf at the time in different places..Great trip back in time, we definitely had a good generation
In the mid 90s we'd go to clubs in Hollywood and L.A. , soon as this song came out we went running to the dance floor.
You mean the mid 80's, right?
I can't stay out of the past when it comes to music ❤❤❤
Such a great tune....deserved to be a huge UK hit.
Rest in Power Ranking Roger 💗🙏💗
Gone WAY too soon. 😢
This song makes you get up and dance!! 🎉💃
The 80s I was there lived it the greatest decade for music hands down and I remember this song I'm 55 years old now
💯
Highschool memories! 80's the best decade to be young! 😎❤🇵🇭🙌
Hell yeah 🤘🤘🤘
Class of 85, hearing this chokes me up
Weird Science! I’ve loved this song and dancing to it in the clubs
Most most definitely I enjoyed this movie when I was a young teenager in 85 and now that I'm old man I still watch it when it comes on and I laughed so much it's one of my favorite all-time movies he say fats man let me tell you my story crazy insane about this eighth grade bitch

80s music are simply the best,I was in my 20s and still loving it to this day
I jammed to this in the late 80's such a beautiful song.
80s were awesome. Color was not an issue. The greatest music came from the 80s.
Amen!
Color was definitely an issue. It was the Reagan-Thatcher era, ffs.
PLEASE MORE MUSIC OF 80S, LIKE THIS
IS GENIAL THIS BAND.

Epitome of the 80's .
One of my Dads favourite songs.
Open my mouth and out comes something spiteful.
great song i met somebody from this band who bought me a drink
this song still sounds brill
This song brings back terrific memories of my freshman year of college!

Freshman year of High School.. so many feels..
I don't know when to start or when to stop
My luck's like a button
I can't stop pushing it
My head feels light
But I'm still in the dark
Seems like without tenderness
There's something missing
Tenderness
Where is the
Tenderness
Where is it?
I don't know where I am but I know I don't like it
I open my mouth and out pops something spiteful
Words are so cheap, but they can turn out expensive
Words like conviction can turn into a sentence
I held your hands
Rings but none on that finger
We danced and danced
But I was scared to go much further with it
Just half a chance
Make sure that one night you're here but
Next night you're not
It always leaves me searching for a little
Tenderness
Where is the
Tenderness
Where is the
Tenderness?
Whistling in the graveyard
Calling up your girlfriend
Just trying to make her understand
You're squeezing the telephone like it was her hand
No question (so many questions)
She's going to catch you out, boy
It all seems so underhand
Now she's the only thing that ever made
You feel like a man, man, madman, madman
Tenderness
Where is the
Tenderness
Tenderness
Tenderness
Where is it?
I held your hands
Rings but none on that finger
We danced and danced
But I was scared to go much further with it
Just half a chance
Make sure that one night you're here but
Next night you're not
It always leaves me searching for a little
Tenderness
Where is the
Tenderness?
When you're sick to death of second best, pet
Why should the morning always find you unimpressed?
Is your love like a button?
You can't stop pushing it?
Oh this all night longing can be such a long time
Thank you
A true classic transcending all decades of rock music wish you were all there
Fresh from the album, “all the rage”. Dave Wakeling gave his all and his tenderness, with a bit of English Beat.
It was an absolutely epic decade
I was at us festival when I first heard them never miss their concerts at the oc county fair
So clean and artistic
Excelente musica que no pasa de moda 😊
It’s October 24’ takes me right back to the 90s when I first heard this song…
Never gets old!❤️

PERFECT.
Ohhhhh los 80sssss....una decada inolvidable
Living a life of regrets is worse than not living at all. Thanks.
Always reminds me of the end of "Clueless" when they play this song before credits roll. ❤
