I played this song to my girlfriend in my 1988 Mazda RX7. That was in 1994 graduated in 1995. Got married in 1997. Been Married 26 years. Good time greeting from Imperial Beach California. 👍😃
I made a cassette tape and on both sides was just this song. I would Rollerblade to it I believe 1990. I graduated 1992. I think this song was in Nightmare on Elm Street when Johnny Depp was still white. If you haven't notice Johnny Depp has become Cuban. I think he kept the persona from the Rum Diaries.
I was watching the 4th nightmare on elm street and this song started playing. i was like... this had to have been added afterwards right?? i had no idea this song was released in 85. it really is timeless.
yeah those soundtracks were fantastic!!!! also sinead o’connor’s “i want your (hands on me)” is fucking SICK xx (where that chick turns into a cockroach lol, “ANOES 4: the dream master”) love it love it 🖤🧸💀 xx
Proposed to my wife to this song. We were driving in my truck blasting this song, she’s swinging her hair and screaming the song and not holding back. I had the ring in my pocket for weeks and I knew then, this was the women, this was the time… we see John often playing at the 80s bar in Southern California and had him sign a CD for us. Wife got to dance with him on stage to this.
My brother used to sing this all the time, I can't listen to this without thinking of him. After he died I would listen to this when I want to remember him.
I've always loved this song! When this song came out I was 27, and living in L.A. - since then I've moved several times - Live in Albuquerque now- and alone. My partner died 4 years ago. Whenever I need a reminder or pick me up - I play this song on my Pod. Love it!!
I know it's 3 years too late, but sorry for your loss bro. I lost my wife 10 years ago and I still can't listen to "our" song. I'll get there some day. :)
I was absolutely amazed when i heard this playing on the show "Entourage".. it just came out of nowhere and it was so well placed in that series moment.. ! I have the old vinyl, i just was floored that they even pulled such an old song out for the show... lol
Omg another classic sound of the '80's!! My best friend and I loved this band. We waited for it to be played on the radio so we could record it on our cassette tapes over and over!!
*I remember those days. I borrowed everyone's tapes to make tons of mixed tapes. I turned to the radio if no one had the album. LoL!! I even rigged up my VCR to my tape deck so I could rip MTV music video's audio if people had taped MTV videos that I wanted the songs of.* 😊❤️ Simple times.
Are you serious. I had a cassette tape both sides with just this song. Early 90's . I took it with me in the Army to South Korea. I was a LT so I shared a room with another LT. I mercilessly played the tape daily. Good old days. He went on to become commander of 1st Special Forces Group. I guarantee he still remembers this song.
Never heard this song until I recently saw it on MTV Classic. Can't believe it's from the mid 80's, the sound, and the look of the band in the video screams early 90's. They were ahead of their time.
Yeah it’s a more punk rock sound, which was popular from the late 70s until the early 80s when glam rock took over until 1991 when Nirvana hit the scene
There were a lot of bands with this sound in the mid-late 80s. Dag Nasty, Naked Raygun, Das Damen, the Leaving Trains come to mind (not to mention the Replacements and Husker Du ). The major labels started paying attention after 1990, but this had been more or less the standard US indie-label sound for a while. It's a great song, though!
*I spent my teen years into punk. These guys are classified as alt rock. But, they sound like tons of non-hardcore punk bands. I miss the 80s simplicity. But I enjoy today's cheap luxuries.*
I find the ABSOLUTE best bamds of the 80s and 90s were 1-hit wonders. Underground and less known bands. Trying to catch lightning in a bottle more than once is insanely difficult.
I had a white friend long ago and we would drink beer all the time. Thomas was cool as hell, until he got married. Anyway, whenever we were drinking, we'd always listen to his favorite rock station and this song played practically all day. Hope you're doing well Tommy!
Your comment made me smile....I have been watching reruns of SNL Black Jeopardy where it always has "White People" as a category. Funny af.... As for me I am 53 , so I rem this song was played on alternative college radio. In my mind this always made me think of the then typical cool college kids. Dressed in black and always smoking clove Djarum cigarettes.
@@atomicplaygirl66 I'm 54 and I remember those college days too. I didn't finish, but I can still remember those grungy, gothic clothes back then. I used to smoke those clove cigarettes too... the government finally banned them.
@@alanmorris7669 I tried to smoke them .....but I just already hated CIG smoke so much cause my mom was a heavy smoker. So I guess I was very lucky not to get hooked on Djarum. Haha. I had no idea they got banned. But I've often wondered why alt kids today weren't smoking them. Now I know why thx to you! I went 5 years tried every major under the sun. Didn't graduate but no regrets.
My brother in law died in a car accident few years ago, this was one of his favourite songs. I listen to it every now and then to remember him. He introduced me to it
Song of the Summer on KROQ when this came out. True story: I booked the concerts at UCLA and had Rodney from KROQ's home number, called him and asked if he knew how to get in touch with the band and I couldn't find any resources on them. He gave me their number at a motel in O.C. where they were staying and that's how I booked them to play UCLA in 85/86, too long ago to recall the date. Comped me for their Roxy date too.
Rock n Roll done right, with this tune. Cliff Pontious, lead singer of Citizen Dick in 1992 movie, "The Singles?" Wearing his Drama Rama, "Edie Sedgwick" t-shirt.
I can't imagine how hard it was making it in music during the 80"s. You guys were so good but barely noticed when it mattered. We notice now and love your music.
Killer riff! I grew up in the 80s in one of L.A.'s infinite suburbs and I remember when this song blew up on KROQ FM. KROQ was the station to listen to if you wanted to hear all the cool bands that weren't part of that noxious cheese that was mainstream 80s music. So tragic that in the 90s KROQ would succumb to corporate suck Love the footage of Edie Sedgwick, Warhol, and assorted NYC 60s Cool Kids.
I started to listen to KROQ in the early '80s, when they still seemed confused as to what they should be playing to be "cool". They were playing the stuff that wasn't mainstream, as you mentioned, but they were also still playing older bands like Led Zeppelin and The Kinks. I also remember them playing "Billie Jean" by Michael Jackson when it first came out, because it had a synth riff, and synths were synonymous with new wave, so... They eventually figured it out.
@@royrowland5763 I didn't start listening to KROQ till the mid 80s and by that time they had settled into their Alternative niche. But I remember hearing about how much more eclectic they were in the 70s and early 80s. There are various UA-cam videos of KROQ transmissions from the early 80s and I really enjoy listening to the great variety of music they used to play. Of course I didn't complain when they settled on strictly Alternative shortly thereafter. I got turned on to KROQ thanks to Richard Blade. You may recall he used to host a show on Channel 9 in the afternoons called Video One. That show was so cool! It turned me on to so many fantastic bands that I am still listening to today. Ah, the good old days.
Love this song. This song set the tone for the entire Nightmare On Elm Street 4 I would say. I still love the 1,3,4,5 parts of the Nightmare On Elm Street. Hello to me old from 2021, when I still remembered that good music once existed.
Okay, what is it tonight? Please just tell me what the hell is wrong Do you want to eat? Do you want to sleep? Do you want to drown? Just settle down, settle down, settle down I'll give you candy, give you diamonds Give you pills, give you anything you want Hundred dollar bills I'll even let you watch the shows you want to see Just marry me, marry me, marry me I'm so sick of you tonight You never stay awake when I get home Is something wrong with me? Something wrong with you? I really wish I knew, wish I knew, wish I knew I'll give you candy, give you diamonds Give you pills, I'll give you anything you want Hundred dollar bills I'll even let you watch the shows you wanna see Because you married me, married me, married me Married me, married me, married me I was young, I learned a game That love and happiness were the same Now I'm older and I don't play I found out the hardest way I got wasted, she got mad Called me names then she called her dad He got crazy and I did too Wondered what I did to you I gave you candy, gave you diamonds Gave you pills, I gave you anything you want Hundred dollar bills I even let you hear the songs I wanna sing I gave you anything anything anything I'll give you anything, anything, anything I'll give you anything, anything, anything Anything, anything, anything
I'm 55 but I think I first heard this around 2006 from a live cover band at a club.loved it.where I grew up we mostly listened to "high energy "type music in mid 80s at party's or breakdancing hip hop,rap.so I missed a lot of good stuff when it came out.better late than never.....frankw
So here's how to navigate the finer points of the language, to better dissect your proposed action, and possible motivation. Big 80's one-hit (~multi-ish) wonder about a gal he chased after, caught, and married. And then drifted away from and ultimately lost. And still misses her; a bit more when the song is played. But that sentiment is shouted out in some hybrid proto-grunge/"earnest" rock (ex: gin blossoms?) While maintaining a lot of that Loud synth-y 80's power ballad. So is it the *most* appropriate? Well it sounds like exactly what you want, it speaks to you in some way, and I would hope if I manufactured a joke/chuckle from beyond the grave, that my friends would understand it. So I say it is _entirely appropriate_ for you. The other question, and what I think you are _truly_ concerned with, is will this song be _in good taste_ at your funeral? I think the answer is not so much, but: • Plenty of awful things have taken place at funerals. This is fun, and mild. Not awful. • Anyone who finds your final wish of playing a song to be awful doesn't deserve to call you friend, and..! •you are excused from attending THEIR funeral. Not even a card! • It is far worse taste to disregard the final wishes of the departed than the imagined standards of others. Cheers! 🎩👌🏻 🐔 Spicily yours, Colonel Cluck; Nugget King of the Entire Eastern Seaboard. Honorary Doctorate in Herb & Spice mixology.
I heard this on the alternative radio channel in the car the other day. I forgot about this band and this song. I felt like I was a teen again hanging out with my sister and our friends.
The first Freddy movie I ever saw and the first time hearing this song was on Nightmare 4...I was the youngest part of the MTV era of Freddy. Horror movies and rock and punk music went hand in hand in the 80's into the early 90's. Another favorite of mine is I'm Awake Now by the Goo Goo Dolls from the Freddy's Dead The Final Nightmare soundtrack.
If a toxic relationship is love, then sure. Idiots think that The Police's Every Breath You Take is a love song so why not this masterpiece of toxicity?
Yeah I wasn't around in the 80s but I was born in the 90s so I grew up with 80s and 90s taste,I miss this kind of music 2018 is nothing but digital cocaine and politics
I don't think I ever met a person who would not get this song. Which means we all loved someone who would not get help even if that meant it would kill you both. The moment when you realise you're helpless is the moment you grow up. I first heard that song in an Elm Street movie and it means it happened to me when I was really, really young. However sad or miserable I'm ever gonna be, I'm proud I'm still here. Everybody here should be proud of themselves. And look for real love. I know it's there, I have it.
"Cuz u Married me, Married me Married me?" Omg! This was type song writing in Rock n Roll I was waiting for. Nirvana was about do it in 1987, but neither bands were known. Repetitive cool lyrics was early-mid 90s. Drama Rama is as important as Janes Addiction/Pixies/REM/The Replacements/The Cure ect....In what happened in 1991-1995
I played this song to my girlfriend in my 1988 Mazda RX7. That was in 1994 graduated in 1995. Got married in 1997. Been Married 26 years. Good time greeting from Imperial Beach California. 👍😃

I made a cassette tape and on both sides was just this song. I would Rollerblade to it I believe 1990. I graduated 1992.

I heard this in jail for the first time, sunday mornings at 10am it was guarenteed to play, song got me through some rough times.
What a timeless classic. A SoCal staple!
Thanks for posting! I never could have imagined what this guy looked like from when I used to listen to this in college.

Oh, shit!! Forgot all about these guys!!! Just saw this on MTV's I want my 80's. A blast from the past!!! Love this song!!!
The 80s are timeless.
Can still remember the first time I heard this on WLIR in '85 or '86. Everything good about 80s music here.
I remember watching Freddie as a kid in vhs and then this song comes up when the young guy starts workingout lol

Anyone who dislikes this song should not ever get anything, anything, anything.....ever again.
I just listened to Grey Daze's (Chester's band pre-Linkin Park) cover on the Dark Nights Death Metal soundtrack, had to listen to the original again.
just a legendary song from back in the day. still love it.

Nightmare in elm Street 4
Aaaaliceeee
I'm 55 but I think I first heard this around 2006 from a live cover band at a club.loved it.where I grew up we mostly listened to "high energy "type music in mid 80s at party's or breakdancing hip hop,rap.so I missed a lot of good stuff when it came out.better late than never.....frankw
Best chorus of any any song ever. I wonder if it'll be inappropriate to have this song played at my funeral? 🤔
absolutely! it’s your funeral, do what you like! 🖤👻💀 xx
So here's how to navigate the finer points of the language, to better dissect your proposed action, and possible motivation.
Big 80's one-hit (~multi-ish) wonder about a gal he chased after, caught, and married. And then drifted away from and ultimately lost. And still misses her; a bit more when the song is played.
But that sentiment is shouted out in some hybrid proto-grunge/"earnest" rock (ex: gin blossoms?) While maintaining a lot of that Loud synth-y 80's power ballad.
So is it the *most* appropriate? Well it sounds like exactly what you want, it speaks to you in some way, and I would hope if I manufactured a joke/chuckle from beyond the grave, that my friends would understand it. So I say it is _entirely appropriate_ for you.
The other question, and what I think you are _truly_ concerned with, is will this song be _in good taste_ at your funeral? I think the answer is not so much, but:
• Plenty of awful things have taken place at funerals. This is fun, and mild. Not awful.
• Anyone who finds your final wish of playing a song to be awful doesn't deserve to call you friend, and..!
•you are excused from attending THEIR funeral. Not even a card!
• It is far worse taste to disregard the final wishes of the departed than the imagined standards of others.
Cheers!

I heard this on the alternative radio channel in the car the other day. I forgot about this band and this song. I felt like I was a teen again hanging out with my sister and our friends.
My new favorite song. This is timeless music that will be played forever.
Nightmare on Elm Street 4 the best one in the franchise with a banging soundtrack.
Nightmare on Elm Street 4 had the best songs
Yes it did!
Agreed
*worst
If you're not swinging nunchucks while listening to this then are you even really living at all?
The first Freddy movie I ever saw and the first time hearing this song was on Nightmare 4...I was the youngest part of the MTV era of Freddy. Horror movies and rock and punk music went hand in hand in the 80's into the early 90's. Another favorite of mine is I'm Awake Now by the Goo Goo Dolls from the Freddy's Dead The Final Nightmare soundtrack.
thank you A Nightmare on Elm Street 4... 10/06/2021. Great music.
I clean my hosue to this song!!! Love it.
I absolutely love love this song. Not to mention edie Sedgwick who is my hero. Been loving this song since it came out in 87 or 88
Every girl I’ve been in love with.
Some bands comes in on stages and make song that happens so music is going hot as skillet in the sun, like making hits being on time.
Such an amazing classic song
One of the greatest love songs ever
If a toxic relationship is love, then sure.
Idiots think that The Police's Every Breath You Take is a love song so why not this masterpiece of toxicity?
They obviously had a love affair with Edie Sedgewyck. Love this song. Wish I could go back to the 80's again.
pimpingmrli this is from the 80s?!?!!
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dramarama#Singles
The song was from 1985 I think.
Yeah I wasn't around in the 80s but I was born in the 90s so I grew up with 80s and 90s taste,I miss this kind of music 2018 is nothing but digital cocaine and politics
Eddie ciao baby!!
A Nightmare on Elm Street 4, baby!
I thought this song was released like early 2000s. Timeless.
I don't think I ever met a person who would not get this song. Which means we all loved someone who would not get help even if that meant it would kill you both. The moment when you realise you're helpless is the moment you grow up.
I first heard that song in an Elm Street movie and it means it happened to me when I was really, really young. However sad or miserable I'm ever gonna be, I'm proud I'm still here. Everybody here should be proud of themselves. And look for real love. I know it's there, I have it.
Great song. Timeless.

Hows life man
"Cuz u Married me, Married me Married me?"
Omg! This was type song writing in Rock n Roll I was waiting for.
Nirvana was about do it in 1987, but neither bands were known.
Repetitive cool lyrics was early-mid 90s.
Drama Rama is as important as Janes Addiction/Pixies/REM/The Replacements/The Cure ect....In what happened in 1991-1995
The Golden Girls Series Finale on Laser Disc brought me here.
LivingInTheKaliYogurt you’re not alone me too

LONG LIVE BUDDY REVELL!!!
One of the best, most unknown punk rock songs ever written! It puts you right in that decade too.
No
You must not listen to punk
This song bops right outta the solar system. So good.
this is an amazing song!!
Wave of nostalgia from loving this song in my teens
First time I heard Dramarama was on Rodney on the Roq in 1986.
Now Rodney and Chris Carter are both on LSUG.
