    I am 56. I bought this album in 1986 and wore out two lps, a few tapes and a cd(too many scratches)from listening to them so much.
    I love so many different kinds of music. I have thousands of lps, tapes, cds....from 1976 when I bought my first 45 from Grants dept store in Allentown, PA.
    Only a few recordings that I have, never sound dated, don't have any filler songs and keep me interested and Simple Mind's "Once Upon A Time" is one of those rare magical and timeless recordings that makes me feel great.

      I have to agree friend, this album keeps me coming back. I'm just a few years younger than you, this album is indeed timeless rock experience. It's so well mixed, the snare is powered by the universe, the vocals are perfect, the guitars just wrap it all together. This is their peak and it's a high bar for others to reach.

      What demands?!! Recording Miami Vice every Friday night w your VCR on time? Making sure your hair had enough hairspray to set a small country on fire? I grew up in the 80's in NYC and I don't recall any hardships that forced me to grow up sooner than I had to. The music was just better. Kids had to go out of their way to discover bands or hang out at Tower Records for hours looking at albums. Today everything is right at your fingertips, instant gratification. There's no fun in that. We had it good!

      1414yorks Exactly, you needed to be born early to mid 70's max to get the full benefits of 80's music as it came out,...just like me :-D
      Take Margeret "milk snatcher" Thatcher out of it and I'll happily go back to the 80's, music was inventive and cool made with passion and soul along with great videos, the true birth of video games, Rocky IV and Rambo II, WWF wrestling at It's best,...and of course the rubix cube ;-)
      Not much fun as an adult in the 80's but magic being a young teen!

      Was born in the 80s as well but I can appreciate older music over today’s crap

      @@ZEUSDAZ things that you said are truth. But as I was born in 82 and my parents were still young this kind of music is what I was hearing from very young, careless age.. and I can feel it to.. would like the experience of living my teen, or early 20s in that period though.. cheers!

    Great song! The 80's were full of good music. Today's music SUCKS!

      Not all of it, there’s a ton of good modern music out there just waiting for you to find it. You just need to know where to look.

      A lot of today's music isn't even music.
