    The video absolutely captures the look (and feel) of 1985 perfectly. That is really what it looked like and was like for a lot of people (myself included). The colours, hair, sound feel, that's 1985 right there. Brings back memories of that summer when every song on the radio was outstanding. Living in Coquitlam B.C. with LG73 playing this and providing a wonderful soundtrack to a great summer.

      I really loved this Video. These Four were played big time bad. I was more into R & B (Still Am) but this was so 1980's. The big problem was that them and Kajagoogo imitated Duran Duran too much in my opinion. I would love for there to be a Segment on VH1's Behind The Music. What stories they could tell.

Then I remembered as a kid after the Jackson Five there were so many family groups like Five Star, Sylvers nd Debarge and their lives were a nightmare. Prison, Drugs, Alcohol, and financial problems. Then New Edition was big and kicked the door for so many groups that came after them, most notably boyz to men.

      They were a successful Rock Group that Made albums and toured Worldwide and Yes, they had Pop influence with big Hair, but they were talented Professional Musicians. Like them or not, the 80's had plenty of what you wrote. It was as excellent era in music and there was increase in digital recording in which the association synthesizers and synth-pop music, many other electronic genres with non-traditional instruments that also increased in popularity. The 80's was also an era that had the rise of electro, techno, house, freestyle, and Eurodance, that rose in prominence during the 1990s and beyond. R&B, hip hop, and urban rap were all popular.

    I just can't get over how amazing this song/video is... Not only does it have every awesome 80's thing possible (big hair, big colors, rhythmic chorus guitar incorporated in the groove, orchestral synth pad doubling the vocal melody, big drum crashes, scorching lead solo, etc.) it also has some unexpected twists like the haunting alternative vocal lines (reminds me of Deftones). Also the entire video has an eerie resemblance to the "Barbie Girl" video in overall aesthetic and dream-like quality.....definitely way ahead of its time!

      Just an amazing time to be old enough to hit the bars when all this kicked off in the early to mid 80,'s.
      Think I only went home to shower and sleep for the first 3 years. Lol

    Song and video have a strong Duran-Duran feel to it.

    Was able to them in Hamilton - free after their status decreased.
    I think I was the only fan there that knew who they were- I didn’t complain just doing my thing- pretty much the only one lined up to have a picture with Mark, then more pics with them waving from their vehicle as they were in front of me when leaving the park.

      Congrats you remembered true talent and I applaud you for still recognising a very kick ass band in their time. I'm saying this as I'm not a braggart and HATE EGOS but I was lucky enough to see a lot of just amazing bands in their time from the rolling stones, to guns n roses, skid row to o bon Jovi etc and I applaud all the years I still crank em. God bless

    As head scratching as the video is, it’s remarkably well produced! The song is great as is the whole band, Alien Shores is a classic AOR/New Wave album and the follow up album Contact is also a great slice of funky pop rock.
