This video is so underrated wtf
Thank you so much! Means a lot
Agreed
So cool. Great job.

Youre right
I love my dx7. It’s the goat of synthesizer and it’s apart of almost every pop song in the 80s. It’s still used till this day.
This is actually the best video I could find regarding the sounds.
I was playing around with the prophet 5 and I had made a sound that it very similar to the one in the song and had a nice filter sustain and it lacked a bit of punch so I am going to go and layer on a dx7 to it.
Amazing video, Keep up the good work.
This is probably my favorite song of all time. AND YOU NAILED IT!
I just got recommended this and your recreation is actually so good. I’m shocked it doesn’t have way more views
Great job man! I've been trying to find something like this and you explain it very well!
I may be biased since this is one of my all-time favorite songs, but that also add more weight to what I'm about to say: This is one of the best videos I've ever seen on UA-cam since its inception. Completely and utterly BLOWN AWAY, Blake!! Whoa... You beyond crushed it with this!! More iconic 80s songs breakdowns, please!! You're on point!
Wow! Thank you so much for your kind words, Jake! That really means a lot!
dude this is absolutely crazy. you killed this. every aspect bro. the mix, the production, everything. I can't give you enough props man. holy shit!
From a new subscriber. Awesome to see the process on how to create a 80s classic. Love the song❤️
Fantastic job. You deserve more subs! You're not the hero we deserve, but the one that we need. Thank you.
Great analysis of one of most ethereal and memorable songs of 80's. Lyrics are quite mesmerizing, almost scriptural. The simple components blend into such a complex unison of effect.
🤗🤗🤗♥️🌹
How does this not have 30 million views? This video is super well done!
omg this is incredible. Thank you for this!
this is nuts dude. would love to have you as some vocals in an upcoming track. incredibly talented and super underrated. well done man
This video literally need millions of views
Thank you!
This is such an awesome & impressive remake! Loved every bit of it, great job! This deserves much more views.
this should have more views, man! this is really informative!
Keep creating this videos man, you really nailed it! 🤟🏻🤪🤟🏻
Absolutely incredible talent and video. Thank you.
What I like about this video is that you were able to got ahold of Chris (Merrick) Hughes (who produced "Songs From The Big Chair") and found out what was used to make this classic song. Great job recreating it. 😊
Bro, you did an amazing work!
thanks for make this recreation, i learn a lot today!~
Very informative, exactly what I was searching for. You nailed it!
Goosebumps!!! Love it !!! 😭
Dude this is Epic!
A synth guide on a song from my favorite band, hell yeah
just finished watching, thank you, made my day better, now im gonna check all ur other videos
Appreciate it Ramon! I need to make more videos. Just not sure if I'll ever have the time!
This is fantastic! Well done!!!
I need you to do about 100 more of these. What a fantastic, detailed video that should be the impetus for a whole series. I'd love you to interview the producers and engineers as a part of the re-creation as well. Man. I'm impressed and inspired. I'd love "When It's Love" by Van Halen, "Alone" by Heart, and "Tom Sawyer" by Rush.
Thank you so much! That really means a lot to me. This was actually my senior thesis for college so it was a lot of work but I enjoyed every second of it. Hopefully I can find the time to do some more!
Great job man! TFF would be proud.
0:30 Whoa, I was trying to recreate this today and it was driving me crazy trying to figure out what the key was, it sounded a quarter-step off. Nice to see that suspicion confirmed. And holy smokes, after listening to this whole thing, you absolutely crushed it! Not only was it incredibly insightful to the production process involved (both originally and on your end), you just flat-out did this track justice. Respect!
Thank you so much for the kind words! I really appreciate it!
Blake I love how you make your own stuff
Dude what the heck you need more subscribers than this you deserve more good job and make more videos ❤️
Really great work, sir! 👏
Outstanding, thank you so much! ❤Mary
Wow this is actually quite an impressive recreation, it captures the vibe and flow of the original really well! Keep up the good work :)
Thank you so much!
HOT Recreation, that's my way of saying it's great and it's high quality.
This has inspired me to continue my eternal search for that sweet sweet PPG Wave bass sound in my PPG wave VST plugin.
This is so good👏🏻 I plan on doing a cover of this song soon ☺️
nailed the sound
Dude keep making more videos like this your channel will grow for sure
this has been uploaded for over a year now. i dont understand why this vid only has around 7k views, i mean this deserves to be up there seen by many more people. hands down to this recreation
Man! Thank you so much! I was really passionate about making an authentic recreation when I did it and thought I would do more, but alas here I am a year later lol.
@@blakecross113 I hope you do much more. This series has potential especially with the care and talent you bring to it. Quality content.
@@jkd8517 Wow. That really means a lot. It was a lot of work but maybe I can do a few more!
This is the best cover on UA-cam !!
Wow, great job you really nailed that
Beautifully done. In fact it’s a fucking masterpiece.
Very clean work !!
Incredible my man
It's a masterpiece well-done
By the way where are you man ?
No video posted more than a year
That's impressive work 👏
Omg. Incredible job. I've been trying to recreate the begginning of this song (cause I just bought a MPK mini too) and I had no idea of where to go! I can't imagine how long it took to record and produce this song.
Too good ! ❤
Very faithful to the original! Great job.
Slayed it!!!
Great Job Blake-
how do you not have that many subs i love your vids
Such a underrated video / and song keep what your doing 👍
My gosh, it was perfect!!!!!!
You nailed the guitar tone
words to describe the perfection of this video have not yet been invented
man I liked the intro of this video, feels like a deep documentary of the song.
I love this one ❤💕💓
Astonishing work. Why doesn’t this have thousands of likes?!!
I know right!?? HAHAHAHA
Dude….need more content. This was really good.
AWESOME!
nice video man!
Wow! The synth and drum sounds comes really close to the original recording.
bruh this is so good. you should do this for Your Love by The Outfield
this is incredible... always assumed the synth bass would be a Juno 60
PPG makes sense tho, where did you get the VST from?
goosebumps
Fkn amazing m8 🔥🔥🔥🔥
great job man:-)
so nice!!!
crazy how these people are alive and available to give you such precious production data. You just have to research a bit and reach out. Great recreation and also great piece of content.
Muy lindo video. ¡Realmente eres bastante talentoso!
Ya estoy suscrito y atento a cualquier nuevo video 🤝
Amazing job, sounds like the original.
amazing!
The intro beat reminds me of "The Way You Make Me Feel" by MJ
fun fact, michael admitted in an interview that he stole the beat from this song
Whoa this is good
WOW! I hope TFF will notice this and share this on their social medias (they do it sometimes)
That would be the sickest thing ever honestly. Thank you so much!
Would like to see Sounds like a Melody by Alphaville :) Great video!
this is the shit. very nice recreation!
Thank you, Philipp! Really appreciate it!
Damn this is just spot on! Annoying question but what is the little Arp intro you used, that sounds identical? I read that it was two DX7s layers but yours sounds way closer. Also what the processing on that AG 2 track, it sounds almost synth like?
You have no idea how long it took to make that intro synth lol. I ended up using a JP-8000 sample from omnisphere to get the closest sound. Because the history is so spotty I found that it was near impossible to get the exact sounds using the listed synths on the track. So I experimented with other synths that could have been around at the same time.
As per the Acoustic processing, you can see at 2:34 that it's pretty typical up until you get to the doubler plugin. That really that magic sound of this track.
Hope that helps!
@@blakecross113 Haha im certainly struggling to make that synth sound as well, yours sounds closest to the original though. Ive been using a JP-8000 but just cant quite get it to sound right, do you remember at all what kind of wave it was?
So good
nota 10 !
I always wanted to hear a darker, more menacing version of this song. Congrats on replicating the original almost to the note, but a darker take on this could be a massive hit.. 😏
Amazing! Only one question popped into my head: what is the name of the program that you used to do all this magic? I usually see music creations made with the Garage Band interface, but this one I've never seen before.
Hey Gabriel! I do most of my work in Ableton Live. However, you could do everything I did here in almost any DAW!
@@blakecross113 Owh, thank you so much for this!
@@blakecross113 Hey is there any chance to post the audio without the Vocals?
@@redhoodypersonlol32422 I would send it to you but the hard drive with this project was lost! You can actually find the original stems online if that's what you're looking for!
Great video@@blakecross113 I've been trying to track down the stems for this for years! Kudos to you for getting in touch with Chris Hughes. I couldn't get enough of his drumming back in the Kings of the Wild Frontier days. Happily showing my age there!

Awesome Job,only criticism is the position the guitar parts are played,but still Really Good Job
I NEED THAT SNARE
If you want that exact snare, you can actually grab the stems for the original song just by googling it!
Amazing. How did you work the vocal into that?
amazing job!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you!🥲
Brilliant
Thank you so much!
What software did you use to get the dx7 and main synth sounds
wow, please do more
What’s sound in Omnisphere is the very first synth
If you're referring to the intro part, I ended up making something from scratch because I could never find anything exact, given the information I received from Chris Merrick Hughes. I believe I used the JP-8000 sample in Omnisphere.
@@blakecross113 would you mind sending me the patch I would like to try it with something I’m making. If you don’t it’s cool
@@kginkling I would! But I actually lost the hard drive that this song was on!
What are the notes played before everything kicks in?! I can never figure them out!
Officially they made the first intro sound with 2 patches of the DX7 layered under each other
Massaaaaaaaaa. Very Good
Where did you find that snare sample 🤩
Amazing!!! I`m trying to cover this song as my first attempt of doing music by myself haha, greetings from Mexico!
plus, im between getting the komplete kontrol a61 or the Arturia keylab essentials 61, any help on which one could be better?
That's awesome! I think you might find the Komplete Kontrol has better keys but the Arturia comes with some great software! Hope that helps!
Great Job :-))
Awesome remake!!!
Do you have an instrumental version? I think it'd sound even better with just the music no vocals
This video is awesome. I tried recreating this song but the track always end out of timing. Is this because of the time signature?
Thank you! It's actually because the song was sped up during the mastering so the timing fluctuates due to the varispeed on tape. That is also why it's not quite in D or Eb but somewhere in between.
