Belter indeed. I saw recently that it was written in response to Thatcher's denigration of working class people. I always loved the song from its release in 1984 and finding this out forty years later is the icing on the cake. Not only a great piece of music but defiant towards the woman who destroyed Britain.
My friend is 60 today. I'm 60 in two months. We cycle in the hills of Yunnan China together. He brews the best beer in Jinghong. We are both healthy. Have a passion for learning and have enough money and good wives. Yeah we are getting old but we don't feel it and don't act it except for the wisdom acquired. His party starts in two hours looking on a terrace overlooking the Mekong.. No lockdown here. We should play this song to all our Chinese neighbours. Being older can be he best time of your life. I'm still a baby really. Life is fresh when you realise your really breathing.
I’m 21 years of age, people always tell me that I have a really strange music taste for my age, I love 50s right through to the 90s (70s and 80s in particular). I’ve grew up with my parents listening to their music and I always loved it. I don’t like the music nowadays, I feel like the older music has more meaning and soul to it. This is one of my favourite songs, I don’t know what it is, but, it gives me a really nostalgic feeling.
Just listen to whatever you want, I had the same thing, still do. I would listen to Flemish tracks from the 60's and 70's and at the same time to early Techno and House. That was in the early 90's. My grandparents never really understood but they were happy, they smiled , as long I was happy. And they could hear some of their old songs again. And the neighbours knew when I was home alone, which was rare, the HiFi would be wide open then.
why every youtube video from an older song gotta have a comment like this 😂😂😂but naw for real though, imma give you some advice since you're young: It's always better to like stuff than it is to not. Of course there's some undeniably uninspired music coming out in every era, but try to get into everything, basically every genre/era has gems worth seeking out. 40s through the 90s are full of rippers, but some of the best music ever has come out in the 2000s-2020s, it just might not be presented in the forms you've learned to like so far. If any music fascinates you for any reason, especially if it's something you normally don't like, dig the fuck in. You'll end up finding beauty in what you once thought was absolute garbage.
Still love this song. I really remember this from 1984 it's my feel good memory. Going on 56 years next month and this song still makes me smile. Thank goodness for memories from the 80s.
Laurel Martin 1984 was the year my daughter was born so good memories for me too ( not so good with her dad ) but this is one of my feel good songs from that era ❤️
I'll be 53 in November and this was in the charts when I joined the Royal Navy in '84. Still as young inside as I was then and still just as foolish lol. Always puts a smile on my face!!
Absolutely agree with you! I’m 57 next month and music from the 80s and the 70s make me feel so much joy. I believed everything would be fine, I was so optimistic. It’s that naive optimism which makes me cry for the girl, then the young woman. She didn’t realise that life could be horribly cruel, and it really was cruel. However, the wisdom of age has helped me to understand that everything passes eventually... life is absolutely fine these days 🥰😘
This song absolutely MADE my childhood, it's so jaunty and quirky. I want to go out and ride my bike whilst listening to it and flying down hills lol. It always makes me smile. I LOVE The Bluebells.
@@steviebudden3397 a load of stuff. Not all top ten releases unfortunately. 'I'm Falling' and 'Cath' were better known releases. You should check out The Singles Collection.
This is one of my favourite songs of all time, top 10 easily - I just love the lyrics, melody, music video and the memories it brings back of watching Top of the Pops and seeing such a fun song on tv
Well it was a hit in two different eras,originally in the summer of 1984 - the newspaper headline "Scargill arrested" gives away the major event that was going on at the time - and a number 1 in 1993 after it started getting used in TV commercials.
This song...doesn't bubble up often... but when it does... it's still love...even in 2020 for fossils like me... reminds me of innocence which once was! Totally love it!
There's no need to move on from that state of affairs. I was 5 years old in 1984 and still feel as young as anyone. I can remember watching Top of the Pops in 1984 and 1983.
I'm 35 and live in Australia now but heard this song as a kid growing up in wake field west Yorkshire..beautiful memories picking dandelions and making daisy chains on the moors in summer 😭🖤
An enlightened friend turned a few of us midwesterners onto this back in the day. Became the theme that summer, can't help but move and smile to it. Long live the 80's
Love how the bass starts and maintains the delightful rhythm throughout. Speaks so much of once young love with a beautiful gurl - then life gets in the way and defeats them - It’s got a gorgeous melancholy which beautifully encapsulates youth and responsibility
I had heard this song first time in the '90's and had immediately fallen in love with it because of it upbeat music and lovely melody, and I was myself in love then... came back to it today thanks to UA-cam Music... and saw the video for the 1st time :)
This is such a feel good song. Brings back great memories of carefree times. Still has the same feel good factor no matter what age! I shall be forever young at heart ☀️
Great fiddle playing by the legendary Bobby Valentino. Had the pleasure of seeing him perform with "The True Believers" at the Ladywell Tavern last night and having a chat afterwards.
I’m here because I’m an Auld bastard and remember this the first time round and was so glad to hear it again for Winston’s wedding and, almost forty years on Claire Grogan still steals my heart!
I remember them re releasing this single after it was used in the Volkswagen ad and it shot to Number 1. I think it had originally got to Number 8. Brilliant song.
The track that defined my twenties and I still love it now! Fabulous record made even better with the presence of the wonderful Claire Grogan! I thought The Bluebells were brilliant! 🏴
the bluebells, the saints, hoodoo gurus...youth was magic, missing my family and friends so much 🙏❤️ i love you all, and hope you have beautiful ups and downs
I LOVED LOVED LOVED THE BLUEBELLS. WISH THEY RELEASED MORE ALBUMS BUT THIS SONG AND CATH ARE CLASSICS. THIS IS WHEN MUSIC WAS FUN AND GREAT AND HAPPY T.O.T.P. DAYS. RADIO 1 WAS FUN TOO
Don't remember it in 1984 but I do remember my mom running out to get it when they brought it back think it was 1993 mite of bean a advert that sparked it of happy memories
When I feel upset , I play this song and remember when I was 6 years old ,mum and dad dancing to this in the living room then remember good times bless ma , pops
My family name is Young so we consider this to be our theme tune. Of course, it doesn’t belong to us - we’ve adopted it you could say. This was also played at my Uncle Freds funeral as it was his favourite tune when he was alive, thinking of you today dear old Fred.
I absolutely 👍 💯 love 🧡 🥰 ❤️ this song 🎧 🎵 🎶 is called The Bluebells - Young At Heart ❤️. It’s good 👍. Perhaps 🤔 it’s made I. The year 1993 is around perhaps 🤔 31 previous years ago. WOW 😮. Time 🕰️ flies. Life is short. In 1993, I was aged 16 to 17 years old at the time 🕰️ and was young. This music 🎧 🎵 🎶 makes me happy 😊. 👍
Perhaps in the future there will be technology to transport us back to the past. I so want to be around because I so badly want to return to the greatest decade.

Bloody hell, Stratford Johns!! The big chef chap was one of the 1960s and 70s television stars in the UK as Superintendant Inspector Barlow in Z-Cars (pronounced "zed cars") and in Softly Softly, the offshoot of Z-Cars. You can see episodes on UA-cam.
The fantastic Bluebells we Scots know how to make music and this is an absolute belter from the 1980’s.

Forget the genius lyrics,,,, if you're 45+, British and this doesn't put a smile on your face,,, you're dead inside.
U have to smile n remember ❤
One of my Dad's favourites he died 07/01/21 aged 66 he was always young at heart
One of my mums favourites too, she died October 2020. We played this at her funeral.

❤❤❤❤❤❤
🙏❤️
Well your dad was a legend and had a great taste In music, god bless big guy
Sending you love x
Just love it - takes me back to back in the day, when life was so much simpler and enjoyable.

If you are watching this, you clearly have great taste in music.
Thank you I do
This song will always remind me of a dear friend that will always be young at heart and will never grow old ❤️❤️❤️
This song for me is pure nostalgia, always brings my mind back to being a kid at family parties in the early 90s. Very bittersweet.
Same for me too 😊
Can't believe I'm now 46 and seeing this video for the first ever time ‼️ God Bless you UA-cam 🙏👍😇
This song absolutely MADE my childhood, it's so jaunty and quirky. I want to go out and ride my bike whilst listening to it and flying down hills lol. It always makes me smile. I LOVE The Bluebells.

This songs never fails to put a smile on my face
So that means you're smiling now because I lured you here with this comment. Say thanks haha
One of the all-time great songs that would have been a hit in any era.
What we call a timeless classic... There is no era to which this song belongs.
Well it was a hit in two different eras,originally in the summer of 1984 - the newspaper headline "Scargill arrested" gives away the major event that was going on at the time - and a number 1 in 1993 after it started getting used in TV commercials.
Always cheers you up
This song...doesn't bubble up often... but when it does... it's still love...even in 2020 for fossils like me... reminds me of innocence which once was! Totally love it!
Reminds me of a time when you were young and didn't give a shit about ANYTHING - least of all getting older.
John M - So so true
But one always does.................
Miss those days. Feel like everything is too much these days. Too aware.
There's no need to move on from that state of affairs. I was 5 years old in 1984 and still feel as young as anyone. I can remember watching Top of the Pops in 1984 and 1983.
Never a true saying
Love the 80's there will never be another time quite like it! ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻💯🔥🔥🔥👌🏻
A timeless classic of a song, and Clare Grogan is beautiful.
Clare grogan
She was and she still is
Ah so it IS the Altered Images girl.
Didn’t realise it was her, she’ll always be kochanski to me lolol
For all us nearly oldies keep going we'll always be young at heart ❤️
I'm 35 and live in Australia now but heard this song as a kid growing up in wake field west Yorkshire..beautiful memories picking dandelions and making daisy chains on the moors in summer 😭🖤
An enlightened friend turned a few of us midwesterners onto this back in the day. Became the theme that summer, can't help but move and smile to it. Long live the 80's
I'm nearly 32 and listening to this in 2021... As remember my Dad playing it on LP 💙 proper music
Well It's April 2020, I'm stuck in the fecking house playing the oldies! Great song, keep singing you all and keep safe
MrGimo123 quarantine makes you think back to better times.
The only problem is that they cannot sing beautiful inspiring song like this nowadays.
With a great video to match, one of the best, I think.
Keep risky and human!
Love how the bass starts and maintains the delightful rhythm throughout. Speaks so much of once young love with a beautiful gurl - then life gets in the way and defeats them - It’s got a gorgeous melancholy which beautifully encapsulates youth and responsibility

Great fiddle playing by the legendary Bobby Valentino. Had the pleasure of seeing him perform with "The True Believers" at the Ladywell Tavern last night and having a chat afterwards.
He is the brother of Anne Dudley
One of the all-time great songs that would have been a hit in any era.
I sang this brilliant pop love song in my band ok
I’m here because I’m an Auld bastard and remember this the first time round and was so glad to hear it again for Winston’s wedding and, almost forty years on Claire Grogan still steals my heart!
How come she's in this video.
Clare Grogan, the sweetest, loveliest wee little lass. 🤗😍
I thought it was her.
and Molly Weir , eternal :)
Bedford ca the sweetest loveliest wee little van 🤗😍
Stratford Johns as well
Kochanski
The Bluebells music is a perfect blend of Folk and Pop.
"how come i love them now, how come i love them more" that little dip in the music/vocal is a beautiful thing............ Great song.
Nice one🥰well how are you doing today and I hope we could be friends and get to know each other better if you don't mind?
The musical talent that comes from Britain is unparalleled. Fact
Scotland
@Jambo M Scotland.
if this song does not lift your spirit then nothing will
This song still makes me smile from memories of a happy youth 💖
I remember them re releasing this single after it was used in the Volkswagen ad and it shot to Number 1. I think it had originally got to Number 8. Brilliant song.
The track that defined my twenties and I still love it now! Fabulous record made even better with the presence of the wonderful Claire Grogan! I thought The Bluebells were brilliant! 🏴
I don't know why this song randomly popped into my head.
I'm just glad I live in an age where I can pick up my phone and even watch the video.
I'm 71 and this was me and my husband's best tune ever n danced the night away ❤❤❤❤❤
2020 is nearly over and this song continues.
May WaheGuru bless the people that bring such joy to our lives through song.
*This reminds me of the VW advert in 1993 BUT I am still YOUNG AT HEART!*
Peaked at #8 in U.K. on 22 July 1984
Peaked at #1 in U.K. on 28 March 1993
1993 as it was used in a VW advert

Such an underrated song.
This music was made well before a was born and it just never gets old
My family name is Young so we consider this to be our theme tune. Of course, it doesn’t belong to us - we’ve adopted it you could say.
This was also played at my Uncle Freds funeral as it was his favourite tune when he was alive, thinking of you today dear old Fred.
My first ever single tape from the Woolworths thank you bluebells my music tastes are defined by this one song x
I absolutely 👍 💯 love 🧡 🥰 ❤️ this song 🎧 🎵 🎶 is called The Bluebells - Young At Heart ❤️. It’s good 👍. Perhaps 🤔 it’s made I. The year 1993 is around perhaps 🤔 31 previous years ago. WOW 😮. Time 🕰️ flies. Life is short. In 1993, I was aged 16 to 17 years old at the time 🕰️ and was young. This music 🎧 🎵 🎶 makes me happy 😊. 👍
Timeless, what a track 😎 🎶
I’m still young at heart age 42 in 2019 and still listen to this lol 😂
WHAT an absolutely fantastic pop track. From an era of not much technology, but an enormous amount of talent.
feel good music. Just seeing this video for the first time ever in 2019.
welcome to the party..........
The good young days😢 My best memories with my dad, love him ♥
Awesome, a real feel good song, such a pleasure to listen to this again and again , just a fun video , well done 👍
This song never gets old I love it
Came here from Still Game- loved their performance on the penultimate episode- this band is lovely. Definitely got me looking into Scottish bands.
Absolute classic you never get tired of this song 💙🏴👍
Perhaps in the future there will be technology to transport us back to the past. I so want to be around because I so badly want to return to the greatest decade.
Young at Heart ❤️❤️❤️
Young at heart
Young at heart
Young at heart
Young at heart
Young at heart
Young at heart
Young at heart
Young at heart
Yet what a start
Old before their time
They married young
For love at last
Was their only crime
How come I love them now?
How come I love them more?
Young at heart
You're so young at heart
Young at heart
Yet not a chance
To be a child at all
They told us tales
They told us lies
Don't they know
They shouldn't have told us at all
How come I love them now?
How come I love them more?
When all I wanted to do when I was old
Was to walk out the door
Young at heart
You're so young at heart
Young at heart
You're so young at heart
How come I love them now?
How come I love them more?
How come I love them now?
How come I love them more?
Young at heart
They told us tales
They told us lies
They shouldn't have told us at all
When all I wanted to do when I was old
Was to walk out the door
Young at heart
Young at heart
Young at heart
Young at heart
Young at heart (you're so young at heart)
You're so young at heart
Young at heart (you're so young at heart)
You're so young at heart
Young at heart (you're so young at heart)
You're so young at heart
Young at heart (you're so young at heart
Misheard half the lyrics for 40 years
This song makes me smile xxx
Just a happy track thru n thru. A great little group and song from Scotland!
Brilliant song, superb video........... fantastic memories around this
so good to hear this again and yes i was young
This is such a feel good song 🎵
Ironically, this song is "young at heart" in the minds of the public, who associate it with the 1990s, forgetting it's actually a 1984 song!
Sticky tape 'n' rust - I still have the single I bought in 1984.
And not even the original 😋
Bigger hit in the 90's.
Technically 1983 song, bananarama made the original on their debut album
Why is it associated with the 90s?
What a fab song this is still great to listen to after all the years gone by since it was recorded.
Bloody hell, Stratford Johns!! The big chef chap was one of the 1960s and 70s television stars in the UK as Superintendant Inspector Barlow in Z-Cars (pronounced "zed cars") and in Softly Softly, the offshoot of Z-Cars. You can see episodes on UA-cam.
How did Inspector Barlow end up serving😄 in a cafe?
