I think the magic of the 80's is that great songs like this from that era have this ability to have such a strong association of a very specific time and place in people's lives because they are so good and have so much meaning. I don't think kids today will say the same of a Kesha song when they reach 42 yrs old.
The public and young kiddies in particular are looking back to the 80's and liking what they hear. It's the decade that has been cruelly overlooked by the fashion rather than the tunes. Bands like OMD, Blue Nile, Talk Talk, Thomas Dolby, Gary Numan, Japan, Tears For Fears, Ultravox, Aztec Camera and so many more had great songs that still stand up !
OMDs songs always seem to be able to bring you back to a place in time, doesn't it? whenever I hear this song I go back to my senior year in high school....that was the magic of the 80s music! OMD are just brilliant!
So in love for this song... for the 80s... for this band... for music... I can hear each note, word, sound... it's pure & clean music... Thank you so much OMD
I was born in 91 and i managed to fall in love with the 80's now! Red Dawn, Short Skirts, New Wave, Everything about the 80's is so great! Today's music for the most part, IS THE WORST! I wish they'd take lessons from the 80's. It'd be a lot better of a music scene :') This is some good music from the heart!
I was a member of the official OMD fan club back in the 80's....and because of that I won tickets to go to the greatest concert in my life....Depeche Mode 101 at the Rose Bowl..OMD opened for them..it was great!!!!!!!....
OMG - I'm going to see them on Monday in Nottingham - loved their music for 29 years! First time I will have seen them live! Can't wait! OMD sums up the 80's for me!! Love them!
I love this song and boy does it bring back memories!! I remember having recorded this on cassette and played this on my walkman when I was flying to then West Germany in summer of 1986. Man, 16 years old and going for 6 weeks on a foreign exchange, seems like yesterday. Always remember hearing this when I was flying over there and looking at the sun rising on the horizon.
This music is never going to let you down .. the 80's was and is a very important time in Music transformation of the society and the mentality ... it endures the time and will never fade away.
This song takes my breath away and its hard to believe that I have waited 25 years to see them playing live ! Dream will come true in about an hour, waiting in front of the theater in Montreal !!!!! : ) We will have a great time !
Brings me back to the innocence of college years...everyone was in our little microcosm where everything was certain: exams, study lounges, weekend parties, and financial aids...
80s will always remain the Era of Perfect/Sensational/Cool Songs.... everything abt the 80s is unbelievable... i'm glad i'm still alive to compare the 3 decades, 80s, 90s, Y2K.....
Classic OMD. This isone of my favorites of theirs....brings back wonderful memories of being a teen in the 80's. I also find it "hard to believe I was so in love" with him.
Agreed. Great song. I've never heard of OMD in the 80's until this song came on scene. They had a string of great hits in the 80's, it's a shame when people talk about 80's music, this band is often never mentioned.
I remember hunting out Electricity back in 1979 from first hearing it on a late night radio show age 16. And this song reminds everytime I hear it of driving my new XR3i along the hill tops of Somerset England. God how the time has flown by! but so glad I grew up trough the 80s one of the best decades ever. Got to see them in concert again in 2007 and they were just as good as when I saw them trough the 80s. Quailty Group! Nikki
I remember listening to this song on the radio when I was 14/15. Classic OMD track!! Joan Of Arc, Electricity, Enola Gay, If You Leave, Messages, man are these some good tunes or what?
CLARO QUE SI!!!!!!!..I LOVE OMD THEY ARE ALSO ONE OF MY FAVORITE 80S BAND...GLAD TO FIND PEOPLE THAT HAVE GREAT TASTE IN MUSIC..THERE SONGS ARE FABOULOUS
In the 70´s and 80´s we were riding a wave of love and need for freedom and peace - born in the 60´s and drawn from the shadow of the nuclear fear from the second world war... we were so naive and the surf was clean... a deep felt respect to every person who fought and lost their lives for freedom - so I can breathe freely today...
OMD Is by far my favorite band of all time!! They were so amazing in concert... I hear they have gotten back together and possibly doing a European tour....??? I hope they come to Canada!!!!! They are amazing!!! Timeless!!!
I was living in Los Angeles in the mid 1980s, and my favorite radio station was KROQ...this song was very popular on that station and this always brings back such great memories!
Quiero decir una vez más, que me encanta esta canción de los años 80´, escucharla me relaja y me recarga de buenas vibraciones y recuerdos, muy buena..... saludos desde Chile.
unforgettable!!!!!does anyone remember the other classics & tunes like that??omd is the one of classic new romantic sounds:hmmmm ...if I could turn back in time to begining of the 80's? -sure!
This video was made in a south-east county of Spain. Super song and very nice images. They bring you back to the 80´s. Thank you and best regards from Spain.
I think I just wen back in time. Thanks for posting this song, makes me feel young again for the next 3 minutes. I remember seeing them at Irvine Meadows in Orange County, Ca. in 1987....
Great song, so many beautiful emotions ! We dont hear that kind today, I hate the 2000's so much that I wish that I would have been stuck in the 80's forever... Forever young !
Nice! I grew up in the 80's as well. Our clubs were the Palladium (also), DV8, DasClub, Club Mirage, The Holy Cow. I so miss those days. Great music and great times. I'd so go back if I could.
I heard this song years after it came out. And even then I reminisced about it. What's wrong with me?! OMD will always be one of the top band of the 80s, over A-Ha and WHAM!
This song was my introduction to OMD back in the '80s. They've made great songs before and after this one, but this one remains my favorite of theirs. ^_^
I saw the one on MTV and heard by the radio... so good one of theirs, I can hardly find more beauty of omd song. They were really remarkable with a slow songs like the one !
É uma delícia ouvir esta música.... Lembra dias de juventude: trabalho e estudo intenso.... pra compensar...., final de semana intenso....! Pra segurar a semana, vídeos na tv com Serginho Caffé! bons tempos que se foram... mas nunca da minha memória, nunca do meu coração!
I miss the late 80's I loved new wave and hip hop so scary we r getting old now! :-( I wish I listen to my grandpa wise! Dont rush to get old lavish every moment! Now I tell my kids what grandpa told me.
Cool ass song. One of my favorites of all time. Brings back memories from my high school days in Chi-town. I can't stop playing it over and over again. Man, I wish I were young again. Reminds me of an old girlfriend. We were so much in love. I miss her. Thanks for the song and video. The place does look like someplace in Mexico.

wow
Niesamowite lata 80-te, cudowna, beztroska młodość.
Wystarczy posłuchać tej muzyki z tamtych lat i już tam jestem.
Dobre lekarstwo na całe zło

The British ruled the early half of the 80's with great songs like this!!
Brings me back to the great times of high school.
OMDs songs always seem to be able to bring you back to a place in time, doesn't it? whenever I hear this song I go back to my senior year in high school....that was the magic of the 80s music! OMD are just brilliant!
I love his voice, it is so clear and strong.....good times the 80's....grew up to these guys and that era.....brings back good memories!!!
So in love for this song... for the 80s... for this band... for music... I can hear each note, word, sound... it's pure & clean music... Thank you so much OMD

I'm from '82 and I feel sooooo good when I hear this song. It has the typical eighties decadent mood. Yeah!
I love this song and boy does it bring back memories!! I remember having recorded this on cassette and played this on my walkman when I was flying to then West Germany in summer of 1986. Man, 16 years old and going for 6 weeks on a foreign exchange, seems like yesterday. Always remember hearing this when I was flying over there and looking at the sun rising on the horizon.
I'm 46. Grew up in the 70-80's. It was awesome. I am saddened that you couldn't experience it, though I know you can feel it.
One of the most UNDERRATED bands of the 80's
This music is never going to let you down .. the 80's was and is a very important time in Music transformation of the society and the mentality ... it endures the time and will never fade away.
The 80's were important also because it was the last decade of decent music. And the early 90's.
This song takes my breath away and its hard to believe that I have waited 25 years to see them playing live ! Dream will come true in about an hour, waiting in front of the theater in Montreal !!!!! : ) We will have a great time !
Why OMD wasn't bigger at that time is beyond me! They had awesome music! Takes me back to my teenage years! Thanks for posting!
I saw these guys back up the Thompson Twins in Vancouver in 1985. I was at the stage and it was an orgasmic experience as a 16 year old. LOVE OMD!
Gracias Dios por haberme permitido vivir los 80´s siendo tan joven y haber disfrutado estas excelente música.
This is one of the most brilliant song of the 80's!!! Maybe ...of the century!!!!
I can't believe how many OMD songs I like. Some I didn't know were theirs. Man, do I miss '80's music or what?
Brilliant long live OMD and the 80s, cant wait to see them again in Glasgow soon!
Brings me back to the innocence of college years...everyone was in our little microcosm where everything was certain: exams, study lounges, weekend parties, and financial aids...
80s will always remain the Era of Perfect/Sensational/Cool Songs.... everything abt the 80s is unbelievable... i'm glad i'm still alive to compare the 3 decades, 80s, 90s, Y2K.....
Classic OMD. This isone of my favorites of theirs....brings back wonderful memories of being a teen in the 80's. I also find it "hard to believe I was so in love" with him.
paul and andy..... you made my youth great and wonderful with your music.... thx...!!!!
Agreed. Great song. I've never heard of OMD in the 80's until this song came on scene. They had a string of great hits in the 80's, it's a shame when people talk about 80's music, this band is often never mentioned.
long live the 80s !!! Euro pop, new wave and MTV were great back then. those were great times!!!

This is one of my favorite 80s songs and OMDs best. Drips with nostalgia for me- first year of high school.
What a classic, what a song! Oh, the 80's. We partied hardy! Miss those times growing up next to my then girlfriend and now my wife.
In the 70´s and 80´s we were riding a wave of love and need for freedom and peace - born in the 60´s and drawn from the shadow of the nuclear fear from the second world war... we were so naive and the surf was clean... a deep felt respect to every person who fought and lost their lives for freedom - so I can breathe freely today...

I'm a proud American but I have to say that the 80's and the British rule in music!
Gosh this just takes me right back. I miss the 80's.
this kind of music never dies..rules all the time..great decade..gracias for sharing
I was living in Los Angeles in the mid 1980s, and my favorite radio station was KROQ...this song was very popular on that station and this always brings back such great memories!

this song can transform me back to my teenage years.....One of the BEST songs ever!!!!
generally one of the greatest songs that shaped the 80's. The music is so much good back then. *sighs*

słuchałam tych piosenek jak byłam nastolatką a jestem przed 30-tką i miło jest powrócić do tych klimatów choćby od czasu do czasu...pozdrawiam
I heard this song years after it came out. And even then I reminisced about it. What's wrong with me?! OMD will always be one of the top band of the 80s, over A-Ha and WHAM!
I saw them in concert when they opened for the Thompson Twins, it was the best concert! I still love them!
OMD were just brilliant, saw them in the early 90s when they'd reformed, and again in 2007, still as good as ever.
One of my favorites by OMD..I am seeing them in concert tomorrow night, can't wait!
dont look at me, just close your eyes!! Wow, what amazing song!!! good memories. Thanks for sharing!!!
I love the 80s music, and OMD was one of my favorite bands. gosh, it brings back memories. thanks for posting!

This is still my favorite OMD song. I am old enough to remember when it first came out.
i second that! OMD, what fond memories of the 80's...love it!!!
This song was my introduction to OMD back in the '80s. They've made great songs before and after this one, but this one remains my favorite of theirs. ^_^
Being a big fan in the 80`s and still like them.
Good voice, nice melodies, great.
Thank you for taking me back. I hadn't heard this song in ages and then, for some reason, it popped into my head. Flashbacks to high school.....
One of the best songs of the 80's and a huge hit in the video dance clubs.
Oh for those days again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Doesn't get much better than this song. And yeah, the 80's rule!!!!
One of my favorite songs of all time. 80's rule.

OMD, VICE & THE 80s FOREVER.
These guys are GREAT. Saw them last night in concert in Pontiac, Michigan. Great show!
Thank you Jesus for making me a teen in the 80's Amen!
I was a kid in the 80's...but remember older brothers hearing this stuff. Nice memories!
This sums up my youth in the 80's - love it!! - and can't wait to see them at the Nottingham Arena Nov 2010!!!
I saw the one on MTV and heard by the radio... so good one of theirs, I can hardly find more beauty of omd song. They were really remarkable with a slow songs like the one !
This song has stayed in my head for longer than i care to remember. i still love it.
I fell in love with a girl who liked OMD and I got into it myself. Basically the music reminds me SO much of her. Great memories. Great music.
Dia De Los Muertos-- Tucson, Arizona-- mid 1980s. This song is a time machine.
Moody & Beautiful. One of the tracks i won`t ever miss. GREAT
OMD is one of the first bands I ever saw live! Love this song. :)
Ja po prostu kocham tą piosenkę. Teraz już takiej muzyki nikt nie robi. Fantastyczni klimat lat 80.
I like these song.
I never knew this was a hit by OMD. lol...I just remembered hearing this song back in the 80s.
Hermoso Tema ,Lleno de Sentimiento ,Directo al Corazon.💘💝..Grandioso..👍
thank you youtube...my god..this brings me back!!! 80's forever
truly agree with you,80's were and are the best!!!
So glad they had good music in the 80's
oh the innocence of this time, when music was music and the memories that came with it, some days it would be great to go back right the wrongs
Wow im lost in love forever...
These songs are timeless :)
Thank you
Reminds me of the good old days at East Carolina University back in 1985/1986. I wish I had a time machine.
É uma delícia ouvir esta música....
Lembra dias de juventude: trabalho e estudo intenso....
pra compensar...., final de semana intenso....!
Pra segurar a semana, vídeos na tv com Serginho Caffé!
bons tempos que se foram...
mas nunca da minha memória,
nunca do meu coração!
Love all these "old" videos and seeing things I've had on vinyl for years but only maybe saw once or twice. Many thanks for putting this up.
I miss the late 80's I loved new wave and hip hop so scary we r getting old now! :-( I wish I listen to my grandpa wise! Dont rush to get old lavish every moment! Now I tell my kids what grandpa told me.
Went to their concert last night at the VIC...great!!! the 80s do rule!!!
Cool ass song. One of my favorites of all time. Brings back memories from my high school days in Chi-town. I can't stop playing it over and over again.
Man, I wish I were young again. Reminds me of an old girlfriend. We were so much in love. I miss her.
Thanks for the song and video.
The place does look like someplace in Mexico.
This is one of my personal mid-80's favorites.
what a blast from the past!!! absolutely loved this song, still do!
love the 80's! songs are well composed and MTVs are the best. : )
I cant explain in words how beautiful this song is... thanks OMD!!!! :)
Long Live The Teens of The 80's!....This decade produced the best songs....New Wave RULES! Walang tatalo talaga sa '80s music!
