Who else listening The Look Of Love in 2024?
I am :-)
😊👍
Me three
I am always listening to The Look of Love.
This is your second listen.
Man the 80's gave us the best and most unforgettable songs of our lives. Did they not? Agree or disagree?
Thos song is orgasmic
Agree👍
I agree the 80s was the best
Absolutely, positively yes!!! I have lived through the 80s as a youngster and witnessed all the great music of the era.
TOTALLY AGREE. It's like God Himself ordained all those talented and creative artists to suddenly start composing and recording all those fabulous songs at the same time. As the saying goes, it was "an embarrassment of riches".
It's 1982, I'm 15 & watching MTV.
You have to love how UA-cam is the closest thing to a time machine ❤
Me, too!
Facts!
💯 😊😊
I 🤔 was a shy skinny 16 yr old in '82, miss those beautiful youthful days living in Bliss never knowing we'd 🔚 up in a pile of.. !!!
I'm 77 and still watching MTV in 2024. Still working on my ABC's.
58 here and it's 2024. Nothing will top the 80's
So right I'm 56 loved.the 80s 😊😂
Absolutely right 😄
I am here 2024 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Going 60 this year... :)
I'm 56 and really have realised how privileged I was to hit the 80's as a teenager and leave the 80's as adult. Wasn't grown up enough to realise how special it was at the time
This song is exactly 40 years and one day old. It's still as fresh as the first day.
Better than most of today's music-productions
Honestly, the video is campy as heck & the song is beginning to show its age but it's unbeatable for nostalgia value & with a few technical changes with today's technology it could be made into a very acceptable contemporary tune.
ABC Was One Of The Top Bands Of The 80's. Great Great Song.
Real music don 't exist anymore.
For sure bud
Myślami jestem w tamtych czasach kiedy byliśmy tacy wolni🤗🤗
I was 16 when ABC released this song and it's still one of my favorites. What a decade the 80's....
This is why the 1980's were awesome and unforgettable. I wanna go back to the 1980's forever. ❤😂👏🎵
Ich komme mit 😊
🙂❤️👍👍👍
@@roterose1801 🙂❤️👍👍👍

My God, we need 80s music more than ever.
Oh yes...............
Yes, along with the look of love!
the 80's f ever !
Martin Fry
1982
One of the greatest 80s tracks of all time
Amen
Absolutely correct
I agree with you on that
no
Ah, the 80s! Such memories.
The artist back in the 80s are geniuses when it comes to music.
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
I am a huge ABC fan to this very day in 2024. Martin has swagger!!
I am 51, still love 80's music, will never die
ever my brother👍 pure magic of the 80sss
Yess, but i am 50 years old😂
I was 16 in 1984. 54 this year.
I`m also 51. Had this song on cassette in my walkman in '82 among Words F.R.David, Abracadabra Steve Miller, I know whats..Frida, Don't go Yazoo, C'mon Eileen Dexys, Avalon Roxy Music....aso on High Life LP. Loooved it so much. Was an epic album. Don' t know if it still exists, sadly.🥲 Haven't seen it 4 a long time.
I'm 65 and I love the music from the 80's
I am 55 and I miss the 80s greatest era ever
Miss them to
I am 60 and i miss those hits
@@rogerseymour5696 miss them to
You got that right 👍...I love the decade of the 60s 70s and of course the 80s 💯
48 and yes it was
I’d say if a song was popular in the 80’s and is still big in 2024 you have a great song!
I remember cranking this up in the car at full volume and how amazing it sounded. Now in 2024 it still sounds amazing, not dated at all.
i'm 55 now and the 80's were my favorite decade.
With you!...
Im 41 and the decade of the 1980s was by far the best for me.
im 55 as well the 80's rocked .. amn we had a chance to see some cool music
Me too. Where did the years go? Seems like yesterday I had no cares. Now, work, kids, wife, mortgage, bills. Ugh!
56 ans et pas mieux !!
The Look of Love by ABC is a perfect example of music in the 80's, whatever you wanted you could find from soft to hard or slow to fast we had it all! If you got to grow up in the 50's through the 90's with all the golden classic movies, music and concerts, YOU were blessed!
But not successful in Europe
@@ruhiger69 they deserve far more fame and recognition
Ottimo commento , condivido,
yes it really was a great song and it brings back so many good memories from 1982/3
90s were pretty magical too for all kinds of music - Electronica/Dance, Trance, Techno etc, Gangsta Rap & Hip-Hop, Heavy Metal and its more underground sub-genres especially Black/Death, R & B, even Country 🎶
I was 2 years old when this song was hugely popular in the USA. Now at going on 44 years old this song and video makes me smile. Am I crazy?
“Sisters and brothers should help each other.” Truer words have never been said. I married a woman who is my equal and best friend. It’s been magical for almost two decades.
I hate to break it to you but that like is purely about fuckin and nothing else
so you married your sister
I will never get tired of listening to these wonderful 80's songs!!
👍
Listening...yes, I agree 💯 ....watching can be a little painful 😖
Brilliant tune 🤠
i renemba this song and video by abc on frida night video's on ch 4 nbc i was in elementary school all through tha 80's loooove 80's safe time great music and t.v show's to
Who is she? 1:52
I fist saw this in high school. I never thought I would ever watch music videos on a phone in the palm of my hand. Crazy how far we've come.
I know...it’s absolutely crazy. I’m so sorry my parents aren’t around to see technology
Just think when I was 18 back in 2000 less than half of my peers actually owned a mobile phone and those that did mostly had a basic function Sony Ericsson????
Check out my 80s mixes!
ua-cam.com/video/-PfEM6bm4w0/v-deo.html
It won't long, till we have flying cars,boats and bikes
True dat brother 😆😆
56 now and still love this song,,bring back the 80s or build a time machine and take me home
We are so lucky to have been a part of the 80’s the best time to be a teen, best music, fashion. My new single out late 2024 features ABC Band drummer Richard Brook. It’s 80’s soulful pop inspired by ABC.
My favourite genre is the 80s, as my Dad used to play it non-stop when I was a kid. Now that I've played it over the years, I've now got my nephew into the 80s. This is how the genre will never die!
If someone could build a time machine to 80s who's onboard?
me.....immediately 🙋♀️
Save room for me. I want to escape this difficult reality.
omw
Me brother
I'd probably go back to the 70s then enjoy them both in order.
Martin Fry is a great vocalist and this album is one of the best of the 1980's. Thanks for the great memories
Sure. I love the album, all the songs are great, I bought it when it was released, and remains one of my favorites 40 years after
I had this on cassette I would drive and never fast forward it.
He had the "Look"!
Amen to that 👌🏼
I think this is one of the best ever pop song 🎶🎶
You're right, it's a song with a feeling and its melody accompanies you and brightens your day.
One of the biggest hits of the 80s. And it will probably be a hit forever. ABC's debut album is almost 100 percent hits. Incredible. Many bands can only do this with a greatest hits album.
We are a group of people that had great times that cannot be replaced, Now 61 going 62 . Still enjoying these golden tracks
40 years later , here we are still listening to the best music.
It was the best time in my live.
It was the best time in everyone’s life
I'm 56 and still like this song!
I do to and I am 65.
1984 was a happy year for me. Miss certain things now.
Lesson on life......never settle for second best!
This song will always have a spot on my 80s playlist.
Such an underrated band.
Saw a clip of Marty singing this recently he sounded the same well almost but just as great and 1000 times better than today's singers
They're on my 80's must listen to , as well . Great song , then or now , in 2023 !❤
Yep!
Plz stop ur cliché comment. Underrated. 22m views isnt underrated
many people still eraing abc even in france that guy have so much talent and carisme
This song represents all that was good about the 1980s.... Best decade ever!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Amen
I miss the 80's a better time
As a '60s teenager, you're right. I've always felt the '80s is enormously unappreciated.
The Brits just plain ruled a good part of the 80's.
and the 60s too
Absolutely it was amazing!
Doug Walker AWOMON 😃😃
as an American I agree
we did because we are brilliant ;)
64 and STILL loving it!!!!!! Then and now, AWESOME!!!!!
are you gay?
Of the same age as Martin😃
I know eh It’s great. I was 18 when this came out Remember havin so much fun Amazing memories in a simpler life 😊😊
Me 65
64 on Dec 1. Only a # 80s music was the greatest. Screw the cellphone
I remember first time seeing this video on MTV back in the 80s, what an amazing music, video and feeling. MTV actually used to show music videos as intended, not the BS that they show now. What an amazing time period in music and in general, entertainment was the best and memories we built are amazing. Still nostalgic when I hear this music and music from the 80s.

ABC - The Look Of Love
I'm 24 years old and I've been listening to "old" music for the past 3 years now, and i just find it funny how I'm constantly finding new jewels even though nothing is new. This one is definitely one of my favorite findings!
There's so much great stuff that the oldies stations never play.
@@GuyCybershy tru dat. once in a lifetime, pop goes the world, just like heaven or close to me or in between days, buffalo stance, into the groove, don't change, pump up the volume, shock the monkey, more than this, wishing well or sign your name, nite and day (al b. sure} , word up, love my way, love is a stranger, sign of the times, as well as look of love or poison arrow or how to be a millionaire, once in a while 80s radio will throw us a bone but there is so much greatness they hardly play. at least the 80s radio i get. so much cheese. how about silent morning by noel or show me by the cover girls for a change? sometimes i'll hear life in a northern town but not often enough. da da da by trio? never. mary's prayer. mary's prayer! i still believe by the call or blood and roses by the smithereens! i got you by split enz and rhythm of the night by debarge. the freaks come out at night. iv'e never heard the freaks come out at night on 80s radio, not since the 80s, anyway. for shame! i never hear the time. the bird, jungle love, gigolos get lonely too. pebbles, lisa lisa and cult jam featuring full force, the belle of st. mark by sheila e. 80s radio, did you forget the belle of st. mark? when was the last time you played shake you down? do you not have sending all my love by linear or bring on the dancing horses by echo and the bunnymen? yes, there was a band called echo and the bunnymen in the 80s. i love the police and billy idol but enough with every breath you take and white wedding. i also love sweet dreams (are made of this) but play when tomorrow comes or at least there must be an angel (playing with my heart), for the sake of humanity. put a little love in your heart, annie lennox and al green. just play it! anyway, that's my rant. that's my 80s playlist.
george michael had other songs than just faith or wake me up before you go-go. a different corner! where did your heart go? so sublime! play kissing a fool, for once. whisper to a scream (birds fly). going back to cali, round the way girl. remember ll cool j, radio? i'ma quit now.
@@sluggboy Sade, Elvis Costello, Haircut 100, The Jam, Madness, Police, Depeche Mode, Culture Club, The Communards, The Clash, Nina Hagen, Toyah, Dexys Midnight Runners… how many parties with my fellows of these days… so nice memories…
Nice one!
Look for poison arrow also by abc great music!
You have to remember that for us 80's kids, there was nothing before MTV! Then all the sudden we had these crazy videos! It was great!
Exactly!!
You mean these AWESOME videos
and we have the monkees to thank for that (well, mike anyway)
We would have never had a second British invasion without MTV. I'm 56, and I loved it!!
@@scotabot7826 That's the truth!
Im 59 years old!!! music in the 80s the best FROM PUERTO RICO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The moment you are recognizing you are one of the best looking guys of the 80s.
I'm an 80s kid,now I'm 50 and still listen to the best music ever made in my opinion, the 80s loved it.
Yes dude I miss these days too I was 16 years old in 1982
Made by proper musicians in it for enjoyment and giving something back to public unlike music today
nice gaz wish u all the best pal.I'm 39 I love the 80's.but it's gone to to fast.joe
those were the days...
@@domestique3954 yes they were
I'm 22, my dad got me into bands like ABC, soft cell, Duran Duran, very grateful for him to introduce me to this sort of music, better than the music of today
Keep listening! There were so many great bands that I didn't appreciate them enough until now, looking back. Kajagoogoo, Psychedelic Furs, and New Order come to mind. Dance clubs had so many songs to choose back then that some of the best didn't get much airtime.
Luke Walters same! 23 and loving those bands, as well as Spandau Ballet, hall and oates, toto... etc.
ur right this musics the best ever
Hi Luke - have you tried Ultravox too, (Vienna is just the tip of an electric-iceberg)
Luke Walters Very true. I was a kid when this stuff was out so my aunts and uncles are always shocked that I not only remember them but I own them in my collection of music
They didn't play for money, they simply expressed themselves authentically
And this kind of music and that which came earlier in the 70s , would force you to want to play guitar because it was so inspirational. That's why some of us play music for living. We thank God that musical appreciation, unleashed talents within us
What a banger from 1982! For me, this song belongs in the ranks of the icons of the early 80s, such as fade to grey, don't you want me, girls on film and tainted love. Hands down!
So glad I grew up during the Brit-pop invasion of the '80's. Nothing today even comes close to being this good!!!
Me too!!! British invasion was warmly welcome.
+plumeria66 yes it was
Misha Betts it was the second wave of the British invasion
Matthew L'Herault Tomatoe tomato
Misha Betts .... let the good times roll.
Damn I was 17 years old when this song came out.
God I miss the 80s.
So was I
Denise White so was I 👍
Denise White, same here. I miss the '80s too, I was only 8 when this song came out and this music video came out with the song, and I've loved them both ever since.
Me too 😃
my current age😍!!
One of the songs that will always sound new. Been on my playlist for years now and never gets old.
65 here, and this song jams after 40 years.
It's near impossible not to have a smile on your face, as this song is playing. It's one of those great 80's songs, that just sticks with you for some reason. I remember when this first came out. And I still enjoy it today. Great vocals and a wonderful orchestral background. The 80's were such a better time. You just had such optimism for the present, and for the future. It wasn't perfect of course, nothing ever is. But all in all, it was 1000X's better than now for sure.
You know in the 80's people were saying the 60's was a lot better. Don't watch the news, it's all doom and gloom, Peace!
@@smith0779 That's true of any era. We always think that the past is a bit better than it is now. Unfortunately, it's the truth. For the most part, things were better than they are now. We were more optimistic for our present and the future, than we are today. Hopefully that'll change. Peace to you too.
@@Mr.SLovesTheSacredHeartofJesus Yes I agree!! I am so grateful I wasn't born a 100 years ago and forced to fight in the Great war. Things are getting worse because the majority of people don't care. Take care , continue to be nice and you will have no worries, God bless X
You had optimism for the future while you were in the midst of the Cold War? Whatever your smoking I want some of it.
Agree
Das war noch gute Musik. Heute 2022 höre ich es mit 53 immer noch sehr gerne. Wir hatten die beste, unbeschwerte Jugend. Ich vermisse diese Zeit ❤️
Anyone around at the time will appreciate just how incredible the production was on this masterpiece of an album. Trevor Horn’s genius brought previously unheard layering, depth and clarity to the record which, together with the great work by the amazing Martin Fry and band, makes this an unassailable and unforgettable classic. Just sublime!
Memories of when I was 18 in 1982. Not only a fantastic song but the carnival atmosphere really worked here, ABC knew how to use the new media of music videos.
There is nothing more 80s than this video.
Love your Name. Jingle heimer Schmidt. It's My name Too
I'm 54 and yes I loved the music from the 80's:)
Then you haven't yet seen "Catch Me I'm Falling" by Real Life yet. - ua-cam.com/video/OeysVlyC_us/v-deo.html
no one wants to see it
Try Dexies Midnight Runners, or Bananarama, or Men Without Hats... :)
The 80’s is UNMATCHED 😭❤️🔥💯💯💯
I love this video! Especially the Trevor Horn cameo towards the end. It's really cool that ABC brought their producer to hang out while filming...BRILLIANT I SAY!!!!!
❤
Iconic song of the 80s forever
With all the crap that is going on in the states right now, I have to listen to the songs I grew up with from the 60s, 70s and 80s to keep me grounded.
Yes, they told of happier days.
Amen ! I feel like Music is Fresh Air for the Soul ! Teaching my gran babes about this!! Dance in spite of the rants
That's the look of ........ absolutely proper, good 80's MUSIC !!! Who agree with me? :)
I do !
I do 100%
One feel good song love it
Now it's nothing but ho's and bitches...
Agree!
80’s Hits
I was about 10 when this came out. I used to wait for my oldest brother to go so I could play his records and Lexicon of Love was usually the first to go on
Nothing ever ever will beat out the 80's music!! Simply the best.
Michael Troutman and David Rodriguez, I fully agree with both your comments. The '80s pop music is simply the best by far.
Totally Agree!!
what about the 70' s ? 11:12 pm, CST, wednesday, april 10/2019.
"Nothing ever ever will beat out the 80's music!! Simply the best.

The 90's: Hold my Beer.
Definitely better than the nineties!
I’m 20 and Still loving this radical tune... absolutely jumping around to this masterpiece (Edit)
I was 17 when this song was released in 1982. Although the video is silly (most 80s videos were silly), this song was an absolute masterpiece in its day. It's still a work of art. After all these decades, I still listen to ABC. Reminds me so much of my college years, the 1980s.
I wasn't even alive then but I remember it when I was a kid. Appreciate it more now 🎶"the look of love.."🎶🎹
There is hope for your generation! The '80s had lots of cool music. Hope you discover more!
[GG]Ez ..I remember 1983 driving my 2002 , w a stereo beyond belief ....The Lexicon of Love ....great times
You have great taste in music buddy!!!

It's one of the best albums of the 80's
Yep.
Yep defo, brought lexicon of love in 82/83, i still have it and it plays beautifully
Man his vocals are off the chart
Actually after 38 years, Martin's vocals are still pretty good!
@@everybody21990 yes indeed.ll
You appreciate a beautiful voice you have a great eveningl
My son and brother walked me up the aisle to this song at my wedding nine years ago. One of my all time favourites.
80's Nostalgia aside, listen to the lyrics and notice the delivery there is a deep profound feel and expression in this song and the quality of the video production, not to mention the musical genius.
Yep, best reply.
July 2023 Love ABC..brings back Happy Days..of the 80s..
Now 58 years young..feeling..21..these Vibes..are AWESOME 🎉😂❤🎉
"I don't know the answer to that question, if I knew I would tell you". Reminds me little bit of David Bowie's voice. End of the song reminds me a bit of Pet Shop Boys. I love this song, it spreads happiness!
exactly!!! exactly!!! I totally agree with you bro I also felt I was listening to petshop boys specially from this min 2:39 to 2:57. love from Bahrain
Thanks my friend, it's good we share the same passion for the good music. I wish you a wonderful day. If you like norwgian nature and funny short films, check out my channel. I found Bahrain on the map now. I been in Abu Dhabi on my way to Philippines and back. I traveled with Qatar Airways. It's rated as the best airways in the world. I traveled 5 times to Philippines, cause I have family there. With lot of love from Norway.
He he I was going to comment the exact same thing, then I see I did it 3 months ago :-) This song always makes me happy! Great song, and the video is rather good too. The return to the 80's is like walking back to happiness :-)
Criminally underrated.
Classics never die
They live 4 ever.....
The utter silliness won me over... by the time the violinist pokes the singer in the eye, I was laughing out loud 😆
This song will always make me feel good inside, I was young no worries, no hate from anyone just living life as I needed.
I feel the same way as you do, so do millions of us everywhere...those were such wonderful days and nights..I miss them terribly
@@Apollo_Blaze I agree with every word you said
Those in the truth movement today are so fond of saying that this is a greatest time to be alive as we witness the great awakening, but I’d happily trade the rest of my life for a chance to relive the 80s. Now those were truly magical times. Who agrees?
Has there honestly been a better decade to grow up than the 80s. No internet, no social media just great music and we were happy.
So you don't use social media at all...
@@peanut1433 Read what I said, if you think and get the jist it was a sign that without social media the world functioned and was arguably a better place. Social Media isn't the problem its the people using it.
@Captain Kirk Kid that I remember 1989😂😂😂 scally fucking mug.
There was Usenet...used it for research for my Senior project in 1988...if you did a SP you got honoured at graduation in my Highschool...

Is an arsehole ... Check!
I think one of the things I love about the 80s music is that there's so much upbeat feels to it ! :)
Brings back memories from the 80’s as a teenager.
I'm 62 and have heard a lot of music and seen a lot of videos. Nothing like the 80's! I love it!
Everything was new and fresh. So much variety everywhere you looked. It had something for everyone.
smhmay1973 you bet
smhmay1973 that was very rude and nasty
I thought seventies were better xxxx
@The Bibliognost I DON'T THINK SO!!!!!! THE 60s 70s 80s were the BEST!!!!.
This was the first music video I saw when MTV debuted back in '81. It's kooky, but upbeat and everyone in this video seems to be having a blast. The simplicity of the stage is also refreshing, unlike today's overblown productions.
And hey: there's one man in this music video who actually was in the first music video EVER AIRED on MTV. (1981)
@@PhilStrohhamster who?
@@TheKeeeks97 Trevor Horn from The Buggles.
@@PhilStrohhamster Thanks!
Agreed .. agreed .. agreed !!!!
68 yo listening.
Good music.
Better music from a better world
Damnit, you can’t tell me the 80s weren’t golden.
They was the greatest and to me still are
Golden with sparkly bits. 80s❤️
I loved how these artists acted characters in their videos. 80’s had that that quirky and eccentric look! Classic tunes.
63 now and still listening to Martin Frey and ABC. Wonderful voice.
Not only did the 80s had great pop songs, it also had great soul music.
The ‘80s was when soul and British pop met perfectly. I miss it so much.
I had The Lexicon Of Love LP by ABC in the early '80s. This group is legendary.
Oh I wish I could’ve grown up throughout this incredible decade. Tracks like this really embody just how inventive and fresh the music was. This is timeless
They were fun wonderful days for sure...we had so much fun
Well, you can at least live in the '80's vicariously by enjoying all those songs from then on YT!!!
I lived it, I clubbed it, greatest music ever, tons of nice girls, ...
where is that time machine ??
I grew up then. I was unbelievably spoiled. I had no idea at the time how special it was.
I went through my teenage years in the 80's. Fantastic time to be alive.
I never get tired of this song. Its so good. I listened to this in the 80's alot as a teen. 🙂
This music never dies , I first heard 1982 ,I think it was
It's still fresh
THE 80'S ARE DEFINITELY THE LOOK OF LOVE
YAY!!! IT WAS AWESOME!!
Had the pleasure of meeting Martin Fry in 2001 ( or 2002 - it was a long time ago ).
The fella is 6'3". One thing for sure ~ If he was any more laid back, he'd fall over.
SUCH a cool dude ...... 😎
2024 and still listening 🥰
Me too!
Serres Greece...Google it...the birth of Christ...
Me too! Just brilliant music.... I miss it.....

Still loving Martin and the Look of Love !
Can you imagine to be 20 in the 80's?That's what happened to me and my generation.Great times!
Good for you.
I was 21 in 1980. Loved all the songs, but the 80s music style started in 1978 and ended in 1989.
@@davefranklyn7730 Hi, Dave.
I think the style ended in 1991.
( maybe in 1993).
If you don't like this, I don't trust you.
Then im afraid there are many we cant trust sad as it is
You're dead to me, son.
Point. Blank. Period.
