Lyrics:
Baby, life's what you make it
Can't escape it
Baby, yesterday's favourite
Don't you hate it?
(Everything's all right)
Life's what you make it
(Everything's all right)
Baby, life's what you make it
Don't backdate it
Baby, don't try to shade it
Beauty's naked
(Everything's all right)
Life's what you make it
(Everything's all right)
What you make it
Baby, life's what you make it
Celebrate it, anticipate it
Yesterday's faded, nothing can change it
Life's what you make it
(Everything's all right)
Life's what you make it
(Everything's all right)
Life's what you make it
(Everything's all right)
(Everything's all right)
(Everything's all right)
Make it, make it
(Everything's all right)
Life's what you make it

Hell yeah👍🍺🍺🎶
#Me too! 😉
People really don't understand how phenomenal this song truly is and the impact that it still has today.
Rest Easy Mark and Thank You Sir.
could not agree more.
Loved this song the moment I heard it - The whole album is superb.
Alors tant pis pour eux😂😂, vive la musique !!!veilles 👂 de 52 ans , bonne écoute à tous
Isn't Mark a true genius? I mean, isn't Mark STILL a genius? Genius never dies. People rest in peace, but genius rests in production, right?
I think it is a shame that this song did not go up straight to number one. But over 88.000 thumbs up show that many people do know how phenomenal this song is.
This was before my time since I was born in 89. I'm a black male and most would think I wouldn't listen to this, but the truth is great music has no barriers or demographics.
me and you both bro
I am black female and love Talk Talk. Brilliant band
Respect
Music is a universal language for the masses. Colors schemes are only relevant to the institutions 😂
You're a male my friend and I love Jimi Hendrix so to me he's just a genius. I see your point that maybe colours can listen to their own music like rock has mostly white musicians but some shone in it. For instance Hendrix rock,Ub40 Reggae and Eninem rap if you're good at it show it.
Talk Talk did not sound like any other band back then. They still don’t. Timeless music.
So..true...This is one of those 80's songs I remember when I was 6 and coming out of kindergarten and this was playing on the radio in the background because my mom or my brother was always blasting music. It transport me everytime I hear this song
Absolutely true. Even for today, still true. Talk Talk was epic!
Kate Bush is like that too.
❤
Spot on. @@doktormcnasty
I am 76 years of age and most of you will say I'm an old fart (which is true) but I know my music and Mark Hollis and Talk Talk are special. This track "Life's what you make it" is absolutely class!! RIP Mark.
PS Thank all of you for some really nice comments this past year. ❤
The song is true to heart. Life is what you make it.
You've got class my friend. I am a near 60 year old clergyman and agree 100%, my favourite band. Sheer class.
Thank you for your uplifting words. Made my evening 🙏
I’m going on 65, my musical tastes didn’t stop in 1975 when I graduated HS. I just bought all five Talk Talk LP’s for my collection. Genius work.
@@MrLongraphics If your years show anything Sirs, it's that good taste in music lasts for one's entire life...if one has it. And it's the musical taste of those who would call you an old fart (because of what you claim in your comment), that probably tastes like ass! This is one of the most memorable songs ever made!
One of the most criminally underrated bands of the 80's , they were years ahead of everybody else.
Facts!
If only I think we preferred Howard Jones, tears for fears and others who left absolutely nothing. I feel guilty.
What really matters is the feeling of pride they felt when they created a masterpiece such as this. I’m sure they knew it.
Underrated? Not on my watch
Best comment ever
That fucking piano riff and then the guitar. Genius
... and the drums, the bass, the vocals; everything. Genius!
Incredible.
Don't forget the synth and the hammond organ.
So sweet it is man.
Mark Hollis was a genius at putting tunes and lyrics together. There are not many like him. RIP MH.
5 years today. RIP Mark 🙏 🎶 ♥️ This song is surely one of the greatest anthems of all time.
mark was a genius and still is
You know, one of the best things about being in my late 50's now is that I lived my teenage years in the 80's..........Priceless and I wouldn't change them for the world! RIP Mark.
ditto my man !
I agree with you 💯
brilliant song without a doubt.
Me too dude.
@@walterspaceman5592 David Bowie was an alien, a very talented alien admittedly, he fell to earth and blew everyone away, genius, actually he was from south London.
Mark Hollis was an epic singer/song writer. His music is timeless and still relevant! RIP Mark
@@YTR384 I called it "Alternative" back in 1981 with "It's My Life" I was night club DJ playing Punk and SKA etc
So he is dead ! How did he dye ?
@@Heimrik01 Yes Mark Hollis passed away last year.
RIP......
Spot on mate 👌
Nostalgia is the most beautiful form of pain
True.
So true
Yes but nostalgia not what it was...
Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.
Bittersweet
This song will be relevant until the end of human existence. A true masterpiece.
Makes me happy to think that someone, somewhere in the world will discover this record today. Fresh as it still sounds, i guarantee it’ll be like the best thing they ever heard.
Just like what happened to some of us way back in the 80’s.
True quality is timeless.
I never listen to every track of the albums I like, because when I hear them for the first time it feels like the artist is releasing new music, years after the original release...
I discovered this two weeks ago and completely agree with you true warrior
Love this track. Got all their albums as well. Brilliant.
Anthem for the mid 80ies holding up today, tomorrow and forever.
Found this 20 years ago, still sounds fresh.
who else listens to this incredibly great and unique song in 2020 ... ???
RIP Mark Hollis and many thanks for this masterpiece!
The drummer! Get it!
PS how did he die?
Discovered this beauty playing GTA....
Why are you gay?
@@Yucko000 no, do only gay ppl play that? You look too young to even know who talk talk OR GTA are. Smh
One of the single greatest tracks of the Eighties, a decade that produced no small amount of iconic music. Talk Talk was an amazing band.
MARK HOLLIS...........WE MISS YOU.❤❤
I can't stress enough how underrated this band is.
Was.!!!!
@@stringer-ik1pc yes sadly
Not for me! Im from 1995 and first time I hear talk talk when I have 4 years old and I listen to today
!
RIP Mark Hollis.
Greetings from Poland!
Ikr
100% agreed
This song was one of the most magical songs of the 80s. True legends.
yes we can all pretend it is still the 80's when listening to this great song, Mark you have really left your mark on the music world, there are many of us who appreciate your wonderful talent I hope they do in heaven God bless you
✨ ... in Memory of genius Mark Hollis - Thanks, for all the great Music, that goes to Eternity! Thanks, Talk Talk! ✨

2024 and the song is still brilliant❤
Not sure if it's the most underrated songs of all time but in my opinion, one of the greatest songs of all time.
This is one of the best composed songs ever. Never gets old.
Lady Christina Morte sooo true, and how does losing someone I never met leave such a pain in my heart? That haunting, unique voice of his💔💦 so grateful he left us with all this gorgeous music🌺🕊🦋
Is this video from the 80's? How is it that it looks so good???
@@michellepacheco3035 yes it is from the 80s! Plus the video is remastered
That was one of the best Bands of all times with the Mastermind Mark Hollis. RIP 😥😥😥
@@michellepacheco3035 Yes it was released in 1985, its been remastered.
I almost can't put in to words how good this song is. The haunting melody and composition to the lyrics, oh and that guitar riff, just an absolute masterpiece of the 80's. So many great songs from that decade and this just never gets old!
HI in the 80's I put this track on in my car and drove for miles and miles. I still do this in 2022! Now how many other bands have this amazing hold? There is no time barrier to this track, thank you mark God bless you music is your memory of your life.
the atmosphere of all of their tracks makes the hairs on my neck stand on end
@@pamelapickett4004 Agreed,
like Prefab Sprout , Simple Minds , Howard Jones , Eurythmics , Big Country , ABC , Spandau Ballet , Duran Duran , ......
@@pamelapickett4004 Unfortunately today gas is too expensive to drive for miles. Especially here in the Great White North.
Quel talentueux groupe et la magie de Mark Hollis est plus
que jamais là !!
C’est novateur en tout point, avant-gardiste, précieux.
RIP mon Ange, en toute liberté, sans les contraintes des “marchands de musique” qui n’en ont absolument rien à faire du talent, de la pureté d’une musique comme la tienne !!
Je me souviens parfaitement de la première fois que j’ai écouté ta musique et ta voix sublime…
C’était les années 1980 et j’ai attendu que le présentateur annonce LE NOM du groupe, et de cette voix merveilleuse.
J’avais 18-20 ans dans les années 80.
J’ai filé acheter le vinyle et je n’ai plus jamais “lâché” TALK TALK ensuite.
Comment pouvoir oublier…
⛩️🦋🌿🧡💛🧡
I’m 68 years old and love this group fantastic, headsets on close your eye and relax wow just heaven
Truth. Heavenly.
Same feelings here. Also born in 1955 just like Mark, who passed away much too early.
Left the music business and stopped touring cos he thought he couldn't be a good father and do both. Class Act.
Much respect...R.I.P Mark Hollis.
Morales and talent. RIP
Truth..
RIP M.D.H.
Very well said and with very moving words.
Possibly one of the best songs ever written.
Why is this song not on any of the top100 charts in the 80s?
I completely agree. It's magical which is why I come back to it when feeling down.
@Libra Lady per me "living in another world"...❤
@Libra Lady dicevo che e' molto bella anche la canzone "living in another world" dei talk talk. Io amo i Talk Talk e Mark Hollis ❤
@Libra Lady talk talk ❤
I was in my early thirties and a skydiving instructor when Mark and Talk Talk hit us between the eyes. This song was on a never-ending loop in the aircraft as we climbed to 12,500 ft. When we landed and went to the bar....it was there too along with some of the best music for decades...still not yet surpassed. RIP Mark.
Must have been amazing!
Blue Skies, Black Death. 🪂
Only 12,500 feet? But I agree about Talk Talk-
Always one of ours too when skydiving in Pampisford in UK....BSBD....EFS xx❤
You could release this today for the first time and it would still sound fresh. It was that far ahead of its time. I don't think the world was fully ready for Mark Hollis back then. That's talent.
It needs to be on a soundtrack for a movie to give it new energy and a new audience. It would be huge.
Absolutely!!!
He was a savant. Sadly you can't expect normies to appreciate this level of genius.
He was a savant. Sadly, you can't ever expect normies to appreciate this level of genius.
@torino you tell no lies! You absolutely right!!!
My mom died this January.. she was only 57 years old. She was a type 1 diabetic since her childhood, didn't quite follow the strict health guidelines that came along with it and often went to clubs, parties, concerts, festivals, on holidays etc,. Made many many friends along the way.
She may have lived longer if she had been more reserved, but that wouldn't have made her happy.. She was the biggest music fan, especially 80s music. We played this at her funeral, since this really is her theme song..
I'm sorry for your loss, I'm now 61 and this is my theme song too, I've had my fair share of partying and gigs, still do, I'm sure Mum had a great life even though it wasn't as long as you wished, she'll be dancing wherever she is ❤
❤
peace and love
May her memory be a blessing to you. Thank you for sharing a bit of her story with us strangers. It is a poignant one. I hope you will carry on her zest for life in your own.
Sorry for your loss! Your mom had good taste in music!
Thank you Rockstar, for bringing this and a whole lot of other great 80s tunes to a new generation back in 2002. Being born in 1985, I personally can't hear this song without visualising Vice City.
There! I can't dissociate this song from the 80's vibe gta vice city had, so many songs i wouldn't know otherwise, i know listen to it while flying on sunset or sunrise on Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020
Vice City provided an unrivaled 80s music education to millions.
Yes !! This !
That game was the whole reason I fell in love with 80s music ! I was 11.
(Yes I was way too young to be playing that game, but oh well)
This has gotta be one of the most incredible gems that has ever been written in human history.
FO SHO🎉🎉🎉🎉
Agreed this got me through some tough time in life.
I think the 80's was full of gems. How about Loving You with Fergal Sharkey, Broken Wings by Mr. Mister, Don't You Forget About Me by Simple Minds, Guardian Angel by Masquerade -- and so on .. there are imho tons of great songs (and movies) from the 80's.
Thank you it's brilliant forever
Truth.
STILL LISTENING IN 2024❤
One of the BEST bands, so absolutely underrated.
I am a qualified lesbian

Unique
Almost 6 million views, I think they're rated just right.
Talk Talk are one of the most underrated group in music history
Hi I recommend a song called 'Looking Into The Mirror' By Robert Nix
I'd give that title to XTC. But Talk Talk are a close second.
They weren't underated, but they never made it big.
80’s my youth , what a time to be alive, this band was streets ahead , marks voice was unique !
The best times
Listening and appreciating in 2024. What a song ❤
Yes! 💯👍
First heard it in the 1980s, and still listening to it in Dec 2020.Incredible band of musicians.
First heard it today 💞 born 1986 💞 Absolutely Love forever 💫 Genious 🙏🌟
So true
@@standapanda3443 the same year this song was recorded! I first heard this song 20 years ago in Mtv 2, then called M2. Fell in love with Talk Talk. One of the best bands ever. They were awesome, so ahead, they still are and will be. Peace bro
Me too
Under rated or actually not rated at all ... Wonderful Sounds
Masterpiece, they don't make music like this anymore
People keep saying that they do, but they really dont. Not in mainstream at least.
Absolutely agree. Talk Talk were incredible and Mark Hollis RIP was a forgotten genius. There’s no one like him today at all. I love how he didn’t care about fame or a music career. He was all about quality and truth. Absolute legend.
They dont
Agreed, the 80's were undoubtedly was the best decade ever, No worries, No Rap, No crash bang Bollocks, just pure music that actually meant something and people were so much happier.
@@rosswimhurst No rap? Maybe in Vladivostok, perhaps.
This song is MAGNIFICENT. I thought so in 1986 and I think so now. Wow. RIP to the great Mark Hollis 🕊🕊
timelessly brilliant. one of the main reasons we miss the 80's music.
RIP Mark Hollis! Absolute legend! Grew up with Talk Talk in the 80’s & still listening now in 2021! You will always rock!
How he die?
@@ManuConce1984 Brain tumour, I believe! 😔
Right on spanks the new garbage, can't forget world party
One of my favorite overlooked 80s bands along with world party private revolution, people wake up!!
Mark hollis was the most underrated genius in the brian Wilson beach boys level.
That guitar part is still haunting me
@Joseph M jes. Since i was a kid back in the 80,s. But only this verse..if you hear a live version it totally blows 🤭
That riff...simple, but so powerful and uplifting... it just soars above the piano and vocals.
A very big shock to hear that lovely man Mark hollies passed away as such a young age. Bloody gutted! I still listen to his music. 2021.rest in peace great man. Such talent! Gone but never forgotten. 40 years on. Still!
Strictly that 80s wave signature
Every singl thing about this song is haunting me.
Genius. Pure, unmitigated genius. We are so blessed to have been alive when they were cranking out music like this.
We miss you, Mark.
Blessed and grateful to have been alive to hear and live all this great music.
The short guitar riff during the song is so bone chillingly good.
That's David Rhodes, of Peter Gabriel fame. Excellent guitarist.
I'm 54 and still think it's a brilliant track
Mark Hollis was a music genious and was fortunate enough to be surrounded by good musicians. The orchestration is so detailed and so well arranged... Needless to say more...
TALK TALK band changed the lives of hundred of thousands of people to the better. That particular guitar drives gets right down my bone marrow, like a sound tattoo... I was 10 years old and since that day my brain cells were immediately upgraded. Thank you sirs. I am grateful
Same hear; timeless song! LOVE IT SO MUCH!
Agreed!
Same here x god bless, Sound Tattoos of Talk Talk x
What an incredible testament to an amazing artist. Mark Hollis really was a genius. I remember playing his music on repeat, there wasn’t time for the off button.
Life’s what you make it. ❤
Perfectly stated... and Hollis and bandmates would take the true fans on a wild sonic journey with Spirit of Eden and Laughing Stock! We won't see that artistry in pop music again. R.I.P. Mark.
We owe an absolute debt of gratitude to Mark and the other 80s legends who soundtracked our formative years for us. RIP fella, unique voice, extraordinary talent.
For sure! They made our taste in music impeccable.
ditto seriously what wld we have done w o his voice and this these songs! RIP and Thank You Mark
What a brilliant post this is 👏👏👏 I couldn't agree more mate.
Some of this music is 40yrs old but still feels brand new.
Amazing
@@tinytechs482 Thank you ! Mark and the 80s live on - in all of us !
Thank you all my British brothers and sisters for the 80's
A VERY UNDERRATED BAND
Best Band of the 80's hands down, Mark said he wanted to make music that could be played after 20 years and still be liked, well it's been over 30 now and still can't be beat.
Definitely bro!....
Could even be played after 50 yrs! It's almost fckn 40 yrs "old" now & still sounds good. Love it since i'm 15. Guess i like it even 20 yrs from now, when i'm over 70, if i live that long.....
"He knew how to create depth of feeling with sound and space like no other. He was one of the greats, if not the greatest." Paul Webb former bassist Agreed.
Its very primal raw and inhibited
Such an original song
Sorry for your loss ,it surely must be hard for you.
He is missed by all.
Back then, when music had heart, soul and intelligence. Miss you Mark ❤️
The idea that music from the past had more "heart, soul, and intelligence" than music of the present is a common sentiment, but it is also subjective and open to debate.
Music, like any art form, is a reflection of the culture and society in which it is created. Different eras and genres of music have different styles, themes, and influences that reflect the social, political, and cultural contexts of their time.
While some may argue that music from the past had more emotional depth or intellectual complexity, others may appreciate the diversity and creativity of contemporary music, which incorporates a wider range of influences and perspectives.
Ultimately, musical tastes are subjective, and what one person considers "heart, soul, and intelligence" may be different from what another person values in music. What is important is that music continues to evolve and reflect the diversity of human experience and expression.
@@mattlr01 Okay, Mr. Burroughs.
No, the shit of the last 20 years did not make it
Eat turds you pompous sucker. You just expose yourself for being ignorant on current music. Lazy. Uninformed and a turd.
@@mattlr01right but.... fortunately for you, I huesos you don't have to listen and don't understand recent latinoamerican reggaeton 😅 or mexican "corridos tumbados" 🤣... that shit doesn't got any intelligence, soul or even sense.

I’m 55 and the music of the 80s is sorely missed. Now I’m just nostalgic and will never forget dancing to such great music at the underage night clubs as a teen. What a wild childhood. Thanks to Mark Hollis for shaping my musical mind.
I'm with you 100%👏👏
Ditto. 55 also
You were in you're teens when eighties came along. I was in late 2010's till 80's songs came to me till I got my drivers licence
What a song !!! I am 53 and enjoys every day listening to Mark David Hollis and his mates...what a joy !!! They are "intemporel" as we say in France, I love that band, they make my day every day !
at 53, and agree!
And his own life is what really makes it....
Na kraju 2022 i dalje slusam istu muziku kao u tinejdzersko vreme.Takodje 53 godine.
Totally agree. So lucky to have lived through those years
I know this Song from 2001 . I love talk talk and 80s. I was born in 1980. Im italian
R.I.P Mark Hollis (1955 - 2019)
Mark Hollis ended his life only in his body,the flesh.
But for me personally, he's still alive when I listen to his music.Thank you mark Hollis the Great artist looking down and laughing now at all the terrible music today.
Talk Talk is my favorite band.
Mark Hollis (1955 - +∞)
I wondered the cause of his death anyone knows??
He Will Be Missed Rest In Peace Amen😔😑🙏🏻👼🏻😢😪
@@boxeentrainement3312 no one says...
@@user-hb8lv5db1u You say this like the 80s wasn't filled with musical travesties... Music today is pushing boundaries and I hate all this bullshit about "this decade was better than that decade". I mean, if you can't see the value in music being made today, then you're as blinkered as the rest of them. I lived through the 80s and holy shit there was some bad music. I've been a musician for about 30 years and have seen music evolve and grow. You've clearly missed out and not explored anything of today. Your loss, and your opinion about today's music is completely invalid.
A top band, and keeps me young, cos im 66 years old, ❤ X
I don’t think we’ll ever see another Mark Hollis, nor his amazing band again. He was telling us his understanding of this place. RIP Mark
. Absolutely ❤
Sad But True EPIC ! Band
I had a record shop(remember them) back in the 80s and 90s, and will never forget the week this single was released! I wasn't a fan at this stage, but was certainly aware of them. I was first struck with the artwork, which was so different from the usual band cover shot. Then i played it and was instantly floored by the repetitive piano and gorgeous guitar bursts, not to mention the tumbling cavalcade of drums! It was about a week before i deigned to play the b.side, and that was it!! One beautiful musical epiphany later, and Talk Talk were my new favourite band. We all know the rest with their glorious final two albums, and Mark's spiritual hymn to silence, and then nothing!! Inside, i knew this was the last we would hear from them, but that still didn't prepare me for Mark's passing. How could it? I'd accepted that there would be no more music, but no more Mr Hollis? Simply unspeakable, yet tragically true! So, i once more give thanks to Messrs Hollis, Harris and Webb for showing me what this thing we call music is truly capable of doing to the human soul!! Peace and Love to every Talk Talk lover out there!! ❤ ✌
You could have asked 'if we are listening in 2020', but no, you wrote this beautiful anecdote instead. Thanks for sharing!
@@njits789 It's a pleasure, and thank YOU for your heartening appreciation!
Respect and bless you
Reciprocated my friend!
Beautiful baby 😢
An incredible voice and an incredible message . Taken far too soon but leaving a legacy for everyone who truly listened
Mark forever i love song🌹❤🎶
This song is so Deep, on so many levels.
The organ and guitar riff…..hypnotic, dreamy, and sublime. Music that has a mood and an effect on the hearer. It’s just really from another realm really.
I will be listening Mark and “Talk Talk” till the end of times. Mark’s unique voice always gives me goosebumps from head to toe. I miss you, Mark 😢
Yes to all of that!
80's FOR EVER AND EVER BRO!!!!!
Beautiful words. Gave me goosebumps.
Listening until end of times?? Ironically that's now!!! Someone said will life ever return as we knew it?? No I said only return is Jesus now very soon so listening to end of time we are true x
Yeah Mark had a very distinguished voice. I love it!
One of the best tracks of the '80's.
#fact
That's still underestimated...
💯
2024 🤘 this composer literally wanted to make music that would transcend time, and I believe he did.😉
This is the *really* rare YT video where the "most replayed" moment is the entire video. In other words, people don't jump around in the song, they just listen from start to finish.
That's quite a compliment.
This is one of those songs were you can listen to it over and over again and not get bored.
Songwriting masterclass from Mark Hollis! Everyone must listen the brillant Talk Talk songs, they are timeless gems.
God, I miss him, the group, music....Talk Talk were my escape in the mid-eighties and like everything it goes full circle and now it's 2024 and they offer me escape again.
Feeling this ❤
Totally agree:))
Still sounds amazing after all these years.
This video from mid 80s was 10 years ahead of this time!
I was thinking the same that this classic (video and song) was from 1992 or 1995!
Pure excellence. It's as simple as that. Where have those days gone? We have let them slip away.
I'm only 27, born in 96 but my heart and soul is stuck in these times. Love the oldies man, and I'm glad I live in a time where this music is easily accessible ❤️
I’m 57 and my heart and soul are stuck here too😉
It's timeless that's why brother.
One of the best songs in the world!
Spooky and so catchy!!
Correct ❣️
Very true , but I call it a MASTER PIECE !
This video looks like it could be from the 90’s, 00’s, or even this year. Which just speaks to the timeless nature of Talk Talk. It’s not 80’s music, it’s just great music. RIP Mark Hollis
I was thinking the same
Never heard this till today...I thought it was a new song by Talk Talk, this was so ahead of it's time.
I've had this on loop for the past 3 hours and still can't get enough!
This whole album is a master stroke of work.
Indeed!!👌❤
Totally agree mate.
There are few perfect albums but TCoS is one of them.
I believe you.x🤗
To be honest ,even the early stuff included,they didn’t put a foot wrong in my opinion.
RIP Mark Hollis you were amazing.
10 :)))))))
This is not only a song, but a meditation that could go on forever and ever!
this 38 years old. UNBELIEVABLE 😆
True 😭
Never ever tired of listening to this masterpice.
The whole of the album Colour of Spring is a masterpiece.
No doubt

This is one hell of an EPIC tune!!
This song should have been used in a episode of Miami Vice.
@@gregoryhagen8801Defenitly!!
This song reminds me of the time after I fell from my bike and broke my shoulder. I had just been fired and was struggling to get my sh*t together when I was forced to be at home, unable to carry my little 1yr old and feeling pretty much useless and a dead weight.
Never thought of s*icide or something like it, but a lot of times felt like dying by chance would not be bad at all. One night I couldn't sleep due to the pain that was such that not even the painkillers were working anymore. Somehow this song appeared to me and it hit hard.
It also carried me through the painful physiotherapy sessions and through the months in which I would gradually regain the movements of my arm, and then through the period in which I was searching for a new job, that eventually arrived.
After almost one year, I regained 95% of my arm's movement, which is pretty functional despite of the pain that sometimes comes back. The Doctor said I was lucky since the broken bone pieces could have severed some important nerves or even an artery, in which case I probably wouldn't be here now.
I'd love to tell my story with a happy ending, saying I am living happily ever after, but that's not how it works. New worries, pains, challenges and problems appear, inevitably. And when it happens I tune to this song and remember that "Life's what you make it", really. And it helps me to remember that in my way, I am a survivor. I survived once. I can survive again.
I read in an obituary for Mark Hollis that he always aimed for creating timeless songs. May I tell you, sir, wherever you are, you did it and you touched my life profoundly. And I will always be thankful for that. God Bless you.
Fantastic track!! Over 35 years old but hasn't aged at all.
The generation of today missed out on some truly great music, glad I bought my two kids up on this stuff ! And they love it
This still gives me goosebumps and shivers 30 years on from when I first heard it 😍

Lifevsong thkx , Mark
Thee no.1 band of the 80's in my opinion. Brought me so much joy RIP Mark ❤
This is my favorite 80's song, the extended version is even better in my opinion! I was born only in '94 but damn those 80's were something else 🤩
Agree
Im 61 mid 60s to mid 80s the best but late 70s till mid 80s 👌🏻
The last decade for risk taking in pop music. The 90's were just meh... and the 21st century so far has just confirmed my first point.
I bought my first single in 1986. It was this song. And what a song. And what a band. R.I.P. Mark Hollis. Life is precious. Life is fragile. Life is what you make it.
When this was released I was living on the 7th floor of a tower block, so I used to blast this track out while having my windows wide open. Watching the world go by to this incredible track was an experience I can only describe as awesome.
Thank you for the music, Mark. May the colours of spring surround you now forever. RIP.
Elle fab comments,I think mark would have appreciated them in his unassuming way.
R.I.P. Mark Hollis. Deine Musik wird ewig mit dir weiterleben. Genau das hast du auch gewollt. Dankeschön für die tollen Songs. Ich bin Baujahr 1967 und lebe diese Musik mein Leben lang. Das Tollste daran, auch mein Sohn findet es Mega. Also wird es von Generation zu Generation weiter gegeben. Das bedeutet ewiges Leben. Dankeschön.👍👍
Colour of spring album was, is and always will be a classic.
R.I.P Mark, the Angel's got another singer, we've lost a beautiful,and talented man.❤💛
One of the greatest Musicians of all Time. RIP Mark Hollis, you'll never be forgotten. God bless your Soul.
This is my safe spot when I get tired of everything going on at the moment in my life. ❤
Me too! It keeps me centered through the chaos and whatever life throws my way.
Masterpiece. Legendary. Unforgettable. Regrettable - only in the sense that nothing this good has been released since.
Holy CRAP ! this sheer amazingness of this in 2021! how have I missed this?!!!!
Ok you are not alone. my daughter latched me onto Talk Talk in the 80's I was a Led Zep freak at the time, totally amazed at this track and have never missed a day without listening to it. Heaps of other tracks from various bands over the past 40 years to listen to, but no, Talk Talk means something to me, more than just a track of music, this song makes you really listen to all that you can actually hear on head phones, then you know you are listening to real musicians.
