      It’s definitely a seduction type song. The kind from early 90’s movies where you saw the girl climbing all over the guy & holding onto his tie as she slid down him.

    When I was a teenager in the 90s I think I watched this movie 50 times. In my early 20s I finally bought the soundtrack. Now in my 40s I still listen to this soundtrack often. Talk Hard.

      May as well include me as well.
      I listened to this a lot in high school. It was probably the best time in my life to discover this movie and not just this song but the whole soundtrack as well. I was a teenager in the early 2000s.
      Everyone I knew was all in relationships. Meanwhile, I'm standing off in the back leaning against a wall, having their happiness flaunted in my face. It seemed like when two relationships fell apart, the couples who broke up just swapped partners and continued to flaunt their happiness in my face.
      21-22 years later, nearly everyone of them has gotten married and continue to flaunt their happiness in my face. Meanwhile, I'm just walking away as they tell me to look at them and look at how happy they are like they all did all those years ago.

    So many people
    Come walking by
    Looking so happy
    While all I do is cry
    I just want to be
    With somebody too
    What I'd give for a kiss
    What am I gonna do
    Why can't I fall in love
    Why must it, it seem so hard to find
    Why can't I fall in love
    I know she's out there waiting
    So why, why can't I fall in love
    Hey now I see
    It's always been me
    I thought I was deaf
    In my misery
    It's time to get real
    And change where I'm at
    But the same old questions
    Keep following me back
    Why can't I fall in love
    I know she's out there waiting
    It's time to fall in love
    And let her know
    Just how I feel
    Give it up
    Or give it all
    Something tells me this can't be real
    I know she's out there waiting
    It's time, it's time
    Why can't I fall in love
    Why must it, it seem so hard to find
    Why can't I fall in love
    I know she's out there waiting
    It's time, it's time
    Why can't I fall in love
    Why must it, it seem so hard to find
    Why can't I fall in love
    I know she's out there waiting
    So why, why can't I fall in love

      i think a true real person thats humble will give anyone this choice. When it comes to loving someone this can be a sign of respect to your loved one or be a mystery in keeping the surprise of attraction you both have for one another.

    This song got me through high school in the early 2000s.
    I had no one of my own in my life like everyone else did. I had to see everyone so happy, to the point I nearly wanted to cry.
    21-22 years after discovering this movie and song, nothing has changed. Everyone is still happier than me, and I still don't have someone of my own in my life.

    When I was younger I saw a Trailer for Pump Up The Volume on one of my many hundreds of VHS tapes, because it was a trailer for video it had the goofy voice over and it was made to look like another cheesy comedy. Recently it entered my head again after I read an interview with Christian Slater so I found and watched the film. It was fucking awesome. I guess the best thing about this film fading into obscurity is that people actively have to discover it and are rewarded for doing so.

      Glynn Thomas Actually just watched this movie for the first time tonight... As a nineteen year old sort of struggling through the same shit as the main character, this movie actually hit me hard in a good way. I know this comment is 4 years old but you're right; you do get rewarded for finding these sorts of classics. This is one of my favourite movies now.

      I listened to quite a bit of metal through high school, but when I was down in the dumps because I was pretty much the only single guy in my high school (for all the same reasons you listed), I listened to this song multiple times a day just to get me through.
      Now, 19 years after high school, I'm still listening to this song for all the same reasons.

    I searched our paid cable streaming service for this movie. While I have definitely seen a pattern in which titles are free vs which movies must be bought or rented. This movie is NOT available period! I had to use my UA-cam Premium account to find it, and it was broken into 17 clips! You can’t tell me that somebody absolutely does NOT want folks watching this film!! I can’t imagine why, lol!!👌🏼✌🏼Fantastic movie - should be played in every History classroom in this country imo.

      You should get the film score by Cliff Martinez. Its his best work i think..along with Sex, Lies and Videotape 1989. You may have to download his work on Pump up the Volume. I found it a couple years ago and downloaded it. Its all that great background music playing like the scenes when he was talking to Malcolm before he killed himself and when he talked about serious things on his station. Simply incredible music score. The soundtrack of course is great too

    I was in the ARMY back when this came out. NW girl put in South Carolina and on weekends if you were good you got to select Sunday music while cleaning barracks. Believe me they all got upset when I would choose this soundtrack.

    Did you ever get the feeling that everything in America is
    completely fucked up. You know that feeling that the whole country is like one inch
    away from saying 'That's it, forget it.' You think about it. Everything is polluted. The
    environment, the government, the schools you name it.

    I'd give anything to spend a month in those 80s when music was good and when 'going out' was smt to look forward to. And now only trash music and no friendship like in those days.
