This is their most underrated song definitely; it's so lovely. It was never even close to being a hit when it was released, but that was 1980s radio's loss.
I always thought this band was stunningly good. One night after one of their performances, I accidentally ran into Dale Bozzio. I got a chance to talk to her for a while. I found her to be a highly intelligent, super nice woman. She did not have to talk to me for so long, but she did anyway and she had wonderful vibrations. Because it was an accidental meeting, I had nothing for her to sign after the show and she knew it. So she signed my T-shirt that I was wearing. She wrote: "Thank You for Being Such a Great Fan, Love Dale Bozzio". When I got home I immediately placed the T-shirt on my living room wall and I never wore it again. She is a kind woman and so talented. I will never forget that.
"Surrender Your Heart" is Missing Person's most underrated song of their entire early career, as far as I'm concerned. A simple masterpiece really showing off what they could do. the sad thing is I think it was never performed live. Can anyone dispute this? This is the song that hits me in a soft place, part of the soundtrack of my life. I can't give them a greater compliment than that.
Couldn't agree more very underated band I bought the single words and destination got limited air play in Australia I reckon they should have been a lot more popular sydney Australia 4)6/2023
That lush and simple repetitive synth refrain has a lot to do with it. Once heard, never forgotten. That and Dale's great sincere and pleading like vocal (natch). What more do you need?
still so wonderful in 2020, im a widower now, i've had two wives pass in twenty year and we loved this and i still do, it such a great love song thank you MP,
This is the song I like the most from Missing Person. The instrumental part fascinates me. I can listen to it while I'm driving... It calms me down, it makes me feel... I don't know! It is very good music. Besides! The singer's voice fascinates me. The instrumental part and her voice blend into a beautiful melody. The lyrics won't say much. Even so, this is still a very well done song. This song is on the very select list of my favorite songs. I just love it.
Dale is the one of the flyiest ever to strut across a stage and burn the f'ker down. Such an insanely original vocalist and her image is soooo strong. Totally capable femme bot proto. LOVE HER and the band is kick ass too!! MP forever!!!
I think Dale Bozzio was a great performer, is an icon of the music of the eighties and will always remain as current as ever, forget my amazing friend, thanks for having been Missing persons. atte. pepe chuy obregon, sonora
Lyrics: It's not my imagination It's a no win situation There's no way to get away from >From my love I've got you cornered with my devotion I've got you captured by emotion It's impossible to go on Without love Surrender your heart to me Surrender your heart to me Surrender your heart why can't you see It's the only way that it can be Surrender your heart I don't know why But you never give in to me My decision is a strong one And I know that I can hold on How much longer can you go on Without love
My feeling is it has to do with the musical arrangement and Miss Dale's vocals - there's a sense of quiet melancholy throughout the song that brings up emotions of lost love. For me, it reminds me of the relationships that never were because I cared more for the other person than they did for me.
I was only 12 when this song came out... I was just reminiscing on the song... reminds me of the simpler, carefree life I had as a child compared to the all out BS I have to endure now as an adult.. :(
No puedo dejar de reconocer la buena musica que hubo en los ochentas, como ejemplo esta cancion en especial, de lo mejor de missing persons...Saludos......
Easily my Top 10 new wave songs. Surrender your heart calms my nerves but gives me short of breath at the same time every time I listen to it. Kinda weird isn't it? Much love and respect from the Philippines ❤️
Saw Missing Persons live twice in Santa Cruz, CA in the early 80s. Some of the best shows I saw during that decade... She had a tremendous stage presence and voice, plus the band was quite tight and strong... Just awesome music...
this is a creative person's dream... the music, the lyrics, the direction of the video, and most importantly Peter Max's artistry... one of the 80s greatest
This is the song that introduced me to Missing Persons; I remember seeing it on VH1 “Totally 80’s” back in 2012 & being immediately captivated. Just recently, I met Dale Bozzio after one of her concerts & I can attest to the fact that she is one of the nicest & most beautiful individuals with whom I have ever been acquainted! Who would have guessed that seeing this video all those years ago would spark my interest in the band & ultimately lead to this lovely encounter?
I remember when this video premiered on MTV in the 80's. I loved it and got their album Ryhme and Reason-excellent album. Should have been in the greatest hits cd.!!!!
This comment deserves 1 million likes . You’re so right ! People have a blindfold , rejecting god ! They can’t see that he’s the only one that can help them in every way 😒🙏🏼
mark madrigal as much as I 🖤new wave music , punk rock 🎸 , I also love god with all my heart and soul . He’s the reason I exist , why I’m still alive , with so many obstacles in Life
One of my favorite songs by The (Original) Missing Persons...!!! Teri & Dale should have never broken up...!!! I Miss Missing Persons...!!! (Teri & Dale)
This is one of their last releases. Off their album Rhyme & Reason. Recently remastered and so I had to buy it again..this time on CD. The album is still great. I love this group.
i love this group i remember when i was about 17 years old living in nyc ,i had this girlfriend who was into gothic ,she took me to the village gate to see the grp. i must admit i had a great time. to this day i still have their greatest hits cd, and as i mentione i still enjoy thier music.im 47 yet still into it.
"Wow" they were the first to have this before the original "Sony Plastation" came out in (1995) . "Missing Persons" were some kind of inovatoers of some unique kind.
Such a beautiful Song from Missing Persons! With the wonderful Surrender Your Heart Lovely Singer Dale, Terry and All the wonderful Musicians! Love so much their Music, inspiring, cosmic, Colorful Light Sounds ++++ ♡♥❣❤....
Thats what i love so much about the internet, i am discovering great 80's songs that i never heard back then because they got no airplay in Australia or maybe not anywhere else for that matter (although their song Words was a bigger hit here than anywhere else reaching #9). This is a really nice song that really should have reached at least the top 20, a shame it didnt make it,
i had this album on cassette or maybe CD back then, man this has always been a beautiful song. i'm gonna now put this on my modern playlists - true beauty in music
1983 ....In the transcendence of everything for nothing, with the sentence of surrender, surrender your heart, the hope of the unattainable .... Missing persons, is a musical idea
Surrender your heart is so haunting
This is their most underrated song definitely; it's so lovely. It was never even close to being a hit when it was released, but that was 1980s radio's loss.
Missing Persons is criminally underrated. There music is just art!
Only started listening to their music back in January. Shame thry didn't make any impact in the UK . I absolutely love them .
So is this video. :o)
Her brother was with Zappa great drummer
I mean her husband
You are so right. These songs could still be hits today if they were released today.
I always thought this band was stunningly good. One night after one of
their performances, I accidentally ran into Dale Bozzio. I got a chance
to talk to her for a while. I found her to be a highly intelligent,
super nice woman. She did not have to talk to me for so long, but she
did anyway and she had wonderful vibrations. Because it was an
accidental meeting, I had nothing for her to sign after the show and she
knew it. So she signed my T-shirt that I was wearing. She wrote: "Thank
You for Being Such a Great Fan, Love Dale Bozzio". When I got home I
immediately placed the T-shirt on my living room wall and I never wore
it again. She is a kind woman and so talented. I will never forget that.
That sounds awesome
All I've ever heard was that she was super nice to fans and just a really sweet and nice girl to everyone.
My heart is breaking and i love you
I met Dale many years ago and found her so warm and welcoming and snuggly and witty and down-to-earth. A great lady, no mistake.

This is the song that hits me in a soft place, part of the soundtrack of my life. I can't give them a greater compliment than that.
Was performed live in san diego sdsu i was there in June 1984
Was performed on rhyme & reason tour but sadly only audio recordings seem to exist to the public
Well said its one of my favorite songs of theirs
I Agee 100% , always thought it was there best song!
Yup its your opinion alright.... This song is not very good.
The best song from their album "Rhyme and Reason"....gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it..
AGREED
This album had many great songs, this certainly being one of them😊
Why oh why wasn't this a hit? It's beautiful!
I thought it was a hit?
Couldn't agree more very underated band I bought the single words and destination got limited air play in Australia I reckon they should have been a lot more popular sydney Australia 4)6/2023
I couldn't believe I found this. This was my favorite song back then and the art of this video just gives me goosebumps.
Dale Bozzio's voice has such emotional pull in this song. That's why this song endures.
Why does this song have such an emotional pull on us? ❤️😢
Reminds us of a simpler, carefree time in our lives. Does for me anyway........ 😞
Magic
That lush and simple repetitive synth refrain has a lot to do with it. Once heard, never forgotten. That and Dale's great sincere and pleading like vocal (natch). What more do you need?
@@musicnerd72 The same for 99.9% of us, I expect.
The same reason The B-52’s “She Brakes For Rainbows” does.
still so wonderful in 2020, im a widower now, i've had two wives pass in twenty year and we loved this and i still do, it such a great love song thank you MP,
the instrumentation captures the mood of that era....where have it gone..
80s in the blood forever.....
Perfect tune. This video was top-of-the-line back in '84. Peter Max did a great service to the visuals!
What a classy act. The highest point in the new wave/synth sound
No such thing as New Wave.
First time I heard this. Fantastic aura... I remember those days of my youth in the 80s. I tell my three kids you missed a wonderful period in time.
This is the song I like the most from Missing Person. The instrumental part fascinates me. I can listen to it while I'm driving... It calms me down, it makes me feel... I don't know! It is very good music.
Besides! The singer's voice fascinates me. The instrumental part and her voice blend into a beautiful melody.
The lyrics won't say much. Even so, this is still a very well done song. This song is on the very select list of my favorite songs. I just love it.
The instrumental. Totally!
Had this on LaserDisc back in the day when i was over in Germany in the Army (Karlsruhe 83-86). Such a great band!!
I love this song. It's one of those songs I could literally get lost in.
I love this band; they were great in the 80's and still are. Thanks to youtube and people like you they exist today. Greetings to all of you.
the lyrics fit what sometimes cant be said
One of the most beautiful songs of its place, space and time.
🎵😎🥹😎🎵
Dale is the one of the flyiest ever to strut across a stage and burn the f'ker down. Such an insanely original vocalist and her image is soooo strong. Totally capable femme bot proto. LOVE HER and the band is kick ass too!! MP forever!!!
Lady Gaga totoly copied she is fly
Ditto !!
@@positivevibrations5083 She did indeed. If I were Dale, I'd sue her!! 😆😉
Yeah he'll yeah..
Love this one. The warmth of Dale's presence on the chorus.
The softer side of a band that basically just loves to get down and jam....pure magic...
Sometimes a song goes way beyond the sound and music... Surrender Your Heart 💓
This song and video mesmerized me when it was first released, and it still has the same hypnotic power all these years later.
One of the best music videos ever made, hands down. Props to Peter Max and Missing Persons, the perfect collaboration.
I think Dale Bozzio was a great performer, is an icon of the music of the eighties and will always remain as current as ever, forget my amazing friend, thanks for having been Missing persons.
atte. pepe chuy obregon, sonora
Such a unique sound this group had in everyway. Vocals and all the latest available technology at the time. Glad to still have this on vinyl.
Lyrics:
It's not my imagination
It's a no win situation
There's no way to get away from
>From my love
I've got you cornered with my devotion
I've got you captured by emotion
It's impossible to go on
Without love
Surrender your heart to me
Surrender your heart to me
Surrender your heart why can't you see
It's the only way that it can be
Surrender your heart I don't know why
But you never give in to me
My decision is a strong one
And I know that I can hold on
How much longer can you go on
Without love
Thanks!!
Touching
Lovely, as you user name.
Thanks
“I don’t know why but you never give in to me...” damn that line tears me up. been in so many relationships like that 🥺
I love this song. I got the opportunity to meet the lead singer Dale Bozzio in Westwood when I was a kid and tell her I love this song.
I grew up in Palms, in los Angeles on the west side. So cool.
I wish I did also. I was a cool kid in Chicago..
Hung out at Medusa! I'm sure she went there a bunch.
Good times! 😮
Why does thing song bring tears to my eyes ?
I have the same question
My feeling is it has to do with the musical arrangement and Miss Dale's vocals - there's a sense of quiet melancholy throughout the song that brings up emotions of lost love. For me, it reminds me of the relationships that never were because I cared more for the other person than they did for me.
I was only 12 when this song came out... I was just reminiscing on the song... reminds me of the simpler, carefree life I had as a child compared to the all out BS I have to endure now as an adult.. :(
your tearin up to
Because its about a boy that wont give his heart to the girl (friend) that loves him.
No puedo dejar de reconocer la buena musica que hubo en los ochentas, como ejemplo esta cancion en especial, de lo mejor de missing persons...Saludos......
This song is SOO pure!!!
That's why I come back2 it. It trains you2 be obedient2 it. Pure
Totally
@@MoonChild-zg3gx i would've did anything she said! dangerous!!
Rhyme & Reason, a great album.
Still got it on vinyl listen to it all the time :-)
All very talented musicians. They are one of the reasons to miss the 80's.
Easily my Top 10 new wave songs. Surrender your heart calms my nerves but gives me short of breath at the same time every time I listen to it. Kinda weird isn't it?
Much love and respect from the Philippines ❤️
one kick ass band back in the day. very 80s feeling.
God , this song totally reminds me of my ex back in 84, 19 years old. How times have changed......
Very talented and skilled group of musicians.
Yes Dale AND Terry Bozzio, Warren Cuccurullo, Patrick O'Hearn.....
Zappa didn't play . . .😅
Un clasico, si los hay..una vocalista como pocas , exelentes musicos..una fantastica canción...que épocas , recuerdos imborrables.
Saw Missing Persons live twice in Santa Cruz, CA in the early 80s. Some of the best shows I saw during that decade... She had a tremendous stage presence and voice, plus the band was quite tight and strong... Just awesome music...

For my 25th wedding anniversary I chose 25 songs for my wife, this is one of them❤️😊
I did the same when I turned out 53 yo. This is my number one!!!

Always have loved Dale!! ❤❤
Always futuristic . unique , great musicians. This ment a lot growing up. Saw them once in new jersey. Dale looked so cool and of course sounded cool.
For the past 6 years this has represented my best friend and unrequited love of my life ❤
♥
Of all the great MP songs, this one brings back the most memories.
Awesome group, awesome video, awesome song, AWESOME ALBUM!
great album!
Love this song 💓
another gorgeous moment of pop music. how can one not love this?
This song and Windows is one of my all-time favorites. ♥I love this band
This is one of the best songs and most under rated for sure.
This was a great video. The Music of Missing Persons with Peter Max is genius. Nicely done.
Was this played on MTV?
What a great song and video. I was not very familiar with this band back in the day. I regret that.
Director: How many 80s graphics do you want in this video?
Missing Persons: Well we hadn't really planned it out, but we were thinking all of them.
LOL! :)
this ballad is so awesome. It reminds me of Heart"s these dreams, Prince and the motels!
Beautiful song!!
Very UNDERATED Early to Mid 80's Band.
Enjoyed them very much
underground is not underrated. maybe by you. we loved it
@@spiritualcramp8000 yes we did!
Just underrated by the masses!
Not sure if she was in this band at the time, but her music career started in 1976.
I remember when this video premiered on MTV in the 80's. I loved it and got their album Ryhme and Reason-excellent album. Should have been in the greatest hits cd.!!!!
These effects looked so amazing back then ;) I remember that. Still love this song
This song is timeless...still makes me grow goosebumps everytime I listen to it...
it's beautiful
The effects look dumb by today's standards.
Still a great song though.
I can't stop listening to this..KUDOS!!!!
With digital artwork by the great Peter Max!! It doesn't get cooler than this!
dale is a phenomenon in and of herself
Managed to snag this vinyl during the "6 albums for a penny" era. Their earlier stuff made me go ape sh*t, but this is such a gorgeous song.
Gregory Bryant gorgeous song
M strodel says I have a bunch of there albums
Vinyl.. these kids don't know what that means ❤
@@j.c.9784 🤣 True
A lovely video which brings back wonderful memories of my late brother (whom I miss very much)

This is my favorite Missing Person’s song!
Maybe my favorite MP song. Such an incredibly talented band. Such incredibly beautiful music.
I forgot about this one.....killer tune!💘
This is one of their last releases. Off their album Rhyme & Reason. Recently remastered and so I had to buy it again..this time on CD. The album is still great. I love this group.
Kids these days don't know what a CD is..
A work of art .... beautiful....and a great song....I surrender!
Super talented band. Dale was such a Hottie. I got to see them perform live in NYC. Terry is a monster on drums - just phenomenal.

I don't think Missing Persons ever cracked top 40..
But it was good songs for me
What a vision of beauty she is. Go Dale!
this song reminds me of a time I was in love and it was in 2013.... not the 80s!
i had this album on cassette or maybe CD back then, man this has always been a beautiful song.

Have to disagree with you. They came at a perfect time, my time!
