She is still there and the love even more. Thats the beautiful thing about love.....it goes on. It transcends time and space. We take it with us. Eternal. Much love brotha!🙏

Hi I recommend a song called 'The Bond Villain' by Robert Nix

👍🏻

Yes 🥺 if heaven exist, my only wish is to relive it one last time

Me too!! It LITERALLY is the reason I stopped by this song! Such a masterpiece and underrated! Just heard the acoustic version and saw the words finally and I was in the comfort of the 80's again 😁🙏🏽💯

I do

Reminds me of cal poly SLO. Anyone out there remember tortilla flats..

For the same reasons, I miss the seventies. Though I thoroughly enjoyed the 80s;

debbieabq I'm so sorry :(

I hope your life is going ok Much love and prayers

debbieabq so sorry for your loss. A lovely memory xx

I'm sorry for your loss ♡

This song was my teenage years.

It most certainly does.

I'd be honored if some 80s fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal YT performances of SISTER CHRISTIAN by Night Ranger, AGAINST ALL ODDS by Phil Collins, and PURPLE RAIN by Prince in tribute to the era of legendary power ballads. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Peace and stay safe in the '020s.

FACTS

What is it about the 80's ??? In 1991 I was 21 and by the end of 1992 I realised that a very special era had passed - I was already looking back - even then !!!! IMO we've never had another decade like that since then and fear we never will again...

It was definitely a special time. I find myself always thinking about how that it will never be recreated and only exists in memory and yet my heart says otherwise. All things get a return, it's just a matter of how.

I was born in 1990 and I miss the 80' so much

Unfortunatelly all these qualities have disappeared from the recent music

@Tritoneipelicus Right, most of the music today looks like a fake illusion, all is like fast food, and not only in music. But in the end it is always up to us. The choice is always right when it's made with the heart.

I agree!

Condolences to you for the fact that your friend had faced such a struggle. May you find a way to remain close to him - he is waiting to see you when you arrive on The Other Side. Blessings to you on being a friend to someone with torments that would break most of us.

No man ,the pain is not over, he killed himself so he is in hell

@@0722cristian Really? You sound like you are more likely going there with that sort of attitude!

@Cristian Parrar...I'll pray for you...you need it......I just really wanted to offer condolences but got waylaid by that inane, idiotic comment made by Parrar( which is, of course, what he wants!) Regardless I'm sorry for ur loss😞

I'll post this for Drew. From Tool "10,000 Days" If he happened to be 27, this may mean a lot more. High is the way, but all eyes are upon the ground. You were the light and the way they'll only read about. I only pray, Heaven knows when to lift you out. Ten thousand days in the fire is long enough; You're going home. You're the only one who can hold your head up high, Shake your fists at the gates saying: "I've come home now! Fetch me the spirit, the son, and the father. Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended. It's time now! My time now! Give me my, give me my wings!"

i love 80's so much thanks to my Cousin Allan Venturillo may you rest in peace.His the best bro.of 80's because of him new wave becomes alive til now here in Puerto Princesa City,Palawan,Phillipines..

honestly.

Indeed and at the time it seemed like there was another British group like this coming out every couple of weeks and they all had a great sound! 🎼🎶🎸🎤👌

60s was damn good as well.

Gotta agree with that Jonathan Hill, the variety was unreal back then....80's music had somethin for everybody. I don/'t reckon you could say that now

maybe a past life

@@nathanmccabe2085idk, because i'm from 2000s+, and i love the music from 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s, it just make me feel different

It's the same for me.

He wrote a bunch of shitty songs though...

@@mallorywaters87 that's crazy but I don't remember asking

What was good, what was bad? I'll take them both. I'm glad someone wrote it and I can go back to a better time!

@@joemama-lq2rf that's funny because I just said it. No question needed, but thanks.

PatriotPower1980EPIC

It's such a melancholy track as well, that has to be so bittersweet for you. I've got a few songs I cant even listen to anymore (Somewhere Only We Know by Keane for example) because of what they trigger. If that song comes on the radio when I'm driving the tears come so fast I literally cant see where I'm going!

👍

oh becky. 3 minutes 59 seconds. that just choked me up. I'm sorry for you loss and so glad you find your brother in this music

Querida Becky M: Yo tengo 45 años, yo soy del norte de Argentina. Nunca olvido esta canción bellísima... Sin saber inglés, me fascina desde chica; sólo sabía en esa época el título en español(" No llores que se terminó"). Pero en esa época no teníamos acceso a internet ni youtube, dos hermanos más grandes -uno varón y otra mujer, traían cassettes con grabaciones de lentos internacionales o canciones hermosas en español de varios géneros ; las aprendíamos con mi hermana menor y las cantábamos en dúo; ella es soprano y yo contraalto) . Pero no sé porqué me fascinaba y al mismo tiempo me conmovía tanto esta canción que atraviesa y traspasa idioma y barreras. Lo siento mucho por la partida física de tu hermano🙏🙌 y yo te envío un abrazo muy fuerte. Yo deseo que tú te encuentres bien y que tu " ángel hermano" te brinde mucha fortaleza y consuelo para sobreponerte y continuar; seguramente él desea eso! Bendiciones Becky!🙏🙌😘🙌🙌

Becky M: allí te escribí. ( Anoche un amigo muy cordial me la envió en italiano). Yo espero que comprendas; disculpa por favor, yo no sé inglés; yo te escribí en español hace un rato, yo espero que el traductor de acá traduzca al inglés mi mensaje hacia ti lo más claramente posible🙏. Un gran abrazo para ti😘🙌

wow

So, basically he means he needs sex, right?

Agreed

Yep, I'm 38 and a lifelong hip hop listener, yet this one I loved as a kid. Its quality how certain music can cause such a crossover in terms of its audience.

So true!!

True indeed

I know it's 2 different genres of music but this song and "Don't Deserve This Groove" by The System just jettisons me back to the 80s like no other. Don't Deserve This Groove reminds me of my heavy weed smoking days when I was strongly considering being a Forensic Psychologist. @@KingDomsKingdom85

But in 1986 was this song not even a song it was on 2010

Id loved to been there with u...im 39...been my fav song ever since the first time i heard it...the way he sings each verse relaxes me so much

I have one similar memory from 1995. I was a junior in H.S, listening to music, the sun shining on me on my front porch. I lived with my parents still. I said to myself, I will always remember this moment and day. Everything was perfect, the weather and life. I always to this day think about that exact time and miss it greatly.

Memories, thank goodness for them.

Yes 💯!! How the hell is it possible to know all the words to a song you haven't heard in 20 yrs but can't remember what happened 2 weeks ago? Lol 🤣

Awesome

Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup. Nine words that summarize life as well as anything I have ever heard
