Watching this now in 2024 I am suddenly transported back to that magical decade of the 80s when I was a young man in my 20s and the world was a better place, and the Thompson Twins were my favorite band. Ohh how I wish that there was a time machine because I'd go back there in a hurry and never return!! ❤ 🎸 👍
One of the best parts of my life was the music of the 80s and i am so very lucky to have been in my late teens and twenties in that era- it will forever bring me happiness remembering.
@@bradthurkle7217 I never stopped liking new music, the 80s were good, but get in to King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, then modern life isn't so rubbish. I find lots of good new music now, just don't hear it on the radio.
@@sharpvidtube yeah righto thats cool man. Loved the name of that band hehe i shall check them out. Look dont get me wrong i do like some artist today like The Week End, love Miley Cyrus and not becsuse shes pretty and all that just love her music. I hated the 90s it was like hiphop overload but some it was ok i mean i liked MMN and many more but god it was just to much how ever there was alot of good stuff that did come out of the 90s but i think like every decade ive noticed now music is just evolves. Like techno music which i dont mind acturly and county music its all changing and making its own genre. I do nown again just playing some classic classical music. These people that have spent all there life to profect an instrument and put them alltogether playing all of them is brilliant. Im really injoying stings concert on blue ray in my projctor screen with my surround sound set up in the shed lately its brilliant. You get a taste of everything.
HOLD ME NOW: The only haunting song that you will ever hear.....it will last you a lifetime.....you never want this song to end.....it will bring tears to your eyes many years from now when you hear it again.....you will remember this statement forever!.....I know....I'm pushing 77..... Thank you Mr. Bailey and associates.
As soon as I hear the piano at the intro it always makes me think back to those incredible times, first love, being young and healthy, really magical to be honest, miss those days..
Absolutely love this. Takes me back to the 80's. Pity te rest of the band were not there. Tom still sounds as brilliant as ever. Came to my town yesterday.
Under rated band back in the day. I had lots of good times with this song playing in the background. They are in my top 10 bands in my lifetime. Thank you for the memories!
Underrated .....THE most over and miss used word on TY with regard to old bands. I what way are they possibly underrated? What next....ahead of their time?
Saw the Thompson Twins in April 1984 in a small theater, great show! They were the first band I saw that used wireless headphones. Met Thomas Dolby in the audience, as he was performing there that week.
Wow. Military base next door my older sister is living. It's 1981 and She blinded me with Science first video I saw. 1984 Hold Me Now & Prince take your summer. The future is one of holding onto someone or something. (unknown) Thanks Mr. Bailey for your work for the Northwest US. From a kid starting there.
@@CalifaJohn1 That's a bit harsh. I'm 59 and don't sing as well as I did years ago either. Andy Kim sounded good up until he was about 60, but he still performs occasionally. It happens, unfortunately.
@@Logan_Woods-zd2zi It's okay. I loved their songs back in the 80s. Maybe hold me now refers to the original recordings. I was a dancer in my youth. I decided to leave the stage before anyone asked me to. 😆 It was a good policy.
My dad worked security at that concert. I was so jealous of him, getting to see them! (I was at a summer camp of some sort...) And of course, for him it was just a job. I did eventually get to see them in concert, at the SIU-C arena, in 1986 I think.
Wow!!! Where did all this GREAT MUSIC OF MY TEEN YEARS GO?!!! I LOVED Thompson Twins!!! Great to see Tom Bailey. Greatly miss the other two original members though!!!❤❤
A song lesson to our 20 some things listen to how the start builds and adds interest, the piano then the drums come in, then the synth perfect 80s style truly timeless.
It's fantastic to see bands from my mis-spent teenage years still out there doing it , keeping the memories alive .they are a class act , and thank you for sharing this .
This is Daniel ales yes I am a big fan of the Thompson twins all ways have been a big fan I am a fan of all the songs that I play on utube on my phone god bless u all
The best thing that has ever happened to me in this life ...I'm gonna be the one I say I am..thank you every last fan of these Thompson twins. ..I am the other twin flame...kirkman() and Earhart....long live us ...we will fulfill our ancestors and the dream of inhabiting the new earth. It's true look at vandelux!!!! Listen!!!
Dude knows how to throw a touring band together, lol. I mean, when you get to pick your bandmates, and get stuck in a bus with them....why not hot chicks?
What I've learnt in the past few years about practicing singing again, in times of wanting to express yourself, no one needs to sing like they are on X Factor (which doesnt help people express themselves) - rockin roll and free expression doesnt matter you in perfect pitch on not is still valid. No one needs to be perfect, rockin roll was supposed to push against the grain. For perfect pitch, listen to opera which is brilliant as well.
We need Joe and Allanah to come along one day and complete the trio. Tom left the band way too early, but we understand why he did so. One week a year working together would be fun! Hey Tom, I always thought Quickstep and Sidekick would make a great idea for a film.
could you eloborate? i have qxctually considered doing a tt musical in my school, since we have a yearly musical, it could be a fun idea. do you ean the album itself? or the story of making it?

Yep your lucky..I was lucky to ..I was I little child in the back seat of my sister's car and use to jam these 80s classics..
The 80s was such a awakening of music. Just wish I could go back and never leave.
Same. Im stuck in the 80’s
80s and 90s last great decades
Same

This was one of my brother's favorite songs.... He's gone but I hope he hears it in heaven....

Fortunately, he's still with us. 68 years young!!

You got that right friend!
I find Captain Of Her Heart and Stepping Out also haunting.

What is the song about ? Please tell me
This is such a treat! Tom looks and sounds great! Such an iconic song, love it as much today as I did in 1984.
The Thompsons best song in my opinion...
let's not forget Lay your hands on me....🌺
Without a doubt tbh couldn’t get into the rest of there songs
I disagree. My fave is Lies Lies Lies…
Love on your side es muy buena
Doctor doctor!
Absolutely love this. Takes me back to the 80's. Pity te rest of the band were not there. Tom still sounds as brilliant as ever. Came to my town yesterday.
Takes me back to the 80s!!
No shit!

Lots of competition back then.
Underrated?
😅😅😅😅😅
Not under rated at all, what country were you in?
They are and were rated Very Highly

Cuántos recuerdos
@@angelicanavarro4115 Grupo talentosísimo..asi es..1.000💖🔥recuerdos.saludos🇨🇱.
This made me tear up like a bastard. 😢
*WHERE DID ALL THE GOOD TIMES GO* ?
God knows mate...
Good times every day. Open your heart.
@Mark Johanson OH STFU. Always blaming and not accepting your own faults. Presidents barely have an effect day to day.
It's all subjective; the good times that is.
Down the drain my friend
So, to those complaining... it sounds like you’re searching for some perfect world that you’ll never find....
Well done : ¬ ) Proof that comment surfing is time well spent, well maybe : ¬ )
Lol
That's better than searching for some perfect pitch that he'll never find.

It's okay.
I loved their songs back in the 80s.
Maybe hold me now refers to the original recordings.
I was a dancer in my youth.
I decided to leave the stage before anyone asked me to. 😆
It was a good policy.
Que belleza de canción y el teclado inicial de maravilla, por siempre TT.😂😂
2018 when the world was still normal place to live and the song tells it all
Thompson Twins we’re awesome! Saw them twice and they were fantastic.
What a terrific song. So many memories.
God I love your music Tom and all the Thompson Twins. Pity more of the band weren't present, but this is still good enough for me.
THE OTHER TWO, MADE THE SONG AWESOME!
The keyboard player on the left is beautiful !
Oh cool, seeing them in Bath, UK next week, and hoping to go to Santa Barbara in August!
First band I ever saw live was the Thompson twins around 1986 when I was 16. Played with OMD. Still remember being in the 1st row
I'm a Rocker, WHO, Journey, KISS 💋 to name a few. When I saw the TT Live, could be my favorite Concert in person 1986
Never, ever gets old. 💜💜
Saw them in the early 80s at the Illinois State Fair. Met them as they got off stage. Tom was very very nice!
My dad worked security at that concert. I was so jealous of him, getting to see them! (I was at a summer camp of some sort...) And of course, for him it was just a job.
I did eventually get to see them in concert, at the SIU-C arena, in 1986 I think.
Hi, this is great. Thompson twins. You are the best.The 80s is back. Come and bring back the good times.All the World guy.
How are the 80s back?
Beautiful.. thank You 🤝😎💫✝️
Wow!!! Where did all this GREAT MUSIC OF MY TEEN YEARS GO?!!! I LOVED Thompson Twins!!! Great to see Tom Bailey. Greatly miss the other two original members though!!!❤❤
Alana and joe
I can never get enough of this song
For real.
I had enough of it after 20 seconds.... He ought to throw the towel in.
A song lesson to our 20 some things listen to how the start builds and adds interest, the piano then the drums come in, then the synth perfect 80s style truly timeless.
Thanks 💯✌️✝️
I don't mind being 68 now, this was the music of my youth.
The sound of synthesizer is heavenly
It's fantastic to see bands from my mis-spent teenage years still out there doing it , keeping the memories alive .they are a class act , and thank you for sharing this .
Absolutely Beautiful ❤️
I'm back in HS with my neon pink Thompson Twins socks on attending the concert outside of Chicago. It's like I'm right back there. Thank you, TT

Feel like I'm in my twenties again, what a great song ever.
Such an Amazing song ! Love The Thompson Twins! dx
One of my all-time favorites.
my number one favorite song of the 80s
To say that Tom Bailey phoned this one in would unfairly cast the telephone in a negative light.
I'm loving this band. These women are great!
Oh please crap out there now
Sexist
Excellent song still love it!!!! I thank you SO MUCH FOR SHARING ❤️
Saw the Thompson Twins in 84 at concerts on the common in Boston, Mass. Awesome show!

She’s on the game
They copied Addicted to Love by Robert Palmer.
nice song....loved the thompson twins....
the babes here are gorgeous :)
80s was definitely the best best music ever
My exact words I love 80s music not today's music
What a fun night we had! Thompson Twins were the best of the night, IMO
The best thing that has ever happened to me in this life ...I'm gonna be the one I say I am..thank you every last fan of these Thompson twins. ..I am the other twin flame...kirkman() and Earhart....long live us ...we will fulfill our ancestors and the dream of inhabiting the new earth. It's true look at vandelux!!!! Listen!!!
Just saw them in Washington state. They were wonderful.
Great song! Takes me back in time!
Music play forever.....
Saw the Thompson Twins very close at the Arlington Theater in Santa Barbara in May 1984. Never forget that show..
Esta canciosn es magica. Me transporta a mi adolescencia.
The80s music was the best That piano player is so hot
Listening in 1984, 1985, 1986....2000... and now 2024; 2025, 2026...2050... Doctor Doctor too...😉😉😉🤪
Adoro essa música. 👏🏻👏🏻
Nice video & audio quality, nothing like front row! Thanks for sharing!
Hit a home run with this tune,,,,,,perfection.
Hi this is Daniel ales I am a big fan of this song hold me naw this mine and my wife Ashley favorite song together
I LOVE hearing British men sing!!!
Sexist
YEA BABY !!!!
That is a special one right there .. it made it all much more live perfect is no good live is the real deal!
At one point this song dominated all the charts. Have some respect.
A big hit back then.
😊❤
Part of the soundtrack of my youth.....😁👍👏
Lost it time to call it
Yep, he’s done!!
With a guest appearance by Les Dawson with the keyboard introduction.
In all seriousness, this is genuine pop magic!
His keyboard playing is out of time, and ouch, hitting the wrong notes. I would have thoughts he would have cracked it by now, 40 years later!!
Haha!
I wonder if that was his wife (drummer) and daughters.
The drummer is Paulina
Szczepaniak
they're definitely somebody's daughters
Dude knows how to throw a touring band together, lol. I mean, when you get to pick your bandmates, and get stuck in a bus with them....why not hot chicks?
the Best,no tiene precio
Beautiful finale'
En coro🔥🔥fantástico!!😍
Gracias 🙂
Song was absolutely HUGE.
❤️this song! 😊👍🏼
Oh, wow. That was kinda rough.
I wish TT would get back together, even for one blowout concert.
Reminds me of the wonderful times I had with my girlfriend way back when!
once ahead of the times and underrated.
I used to work with Tom in the super save in chesterfield , then went on to play bass with Tom and Stuart .
great band in the day. great song. how utterly lifeless is this band
