More Than This - An 80's Tribute

  • MEA CULPA; YES, TERMINATOR 2 WAS 1991. DRACULA DEAD AND LOVING IT WAS 1995. THE HAPPY DAYS AND CHIPS CLIPS WERE FROM THE 80'S. THE DUKES CLIP MAY HAVE BEEN FROM THE 70'S. WHEN I ORIGINALLY DID THE VID IT WAS JUST FOR FUN (YOU REMEMBER FUN) AND I WAS GETTING LIKE 200 VIEWS. THIS LITTLE VID OF MINE DONE ON FREE SOFTWARE HAS NOT GOT OVER 400K IN VIEWS, AND I GET ZERO MONEY FROM IT.
    YOU NEED TO DEAL WITH THE MISTAKES. IF YOU CAN'T THEN THIS VID AND MY CHANNEL ARE NOT FOR YOU. THIS IS WHAT IS ENTIRELY WRONG WITH THE WORLD TODAY. LIVE AND LET LIVE. HAVE FUN. IF NOT, SHUT UP, AND MOVE ON. I WOULD LIKE TO THINK THAT IS THE GEN-X APPROACH.
    NOW PLEASE F'N ENJOY THE VID IN THE SPIRIT IT WAS MADE.
    The other night I was watching The Goldbergs and they used this song , "More Than This" by Roxy Music, featuring lead singer Bryan Ferry, and I thought, yep, have to do that song.
    So here is just a random selection of 80's nostalgia clips set to this great mood song of the 80's. Let''s face it, if there is one thing we have learned since we exited the 80's it's that, no there was nothing more than that.

    I was a teen in the 80’s and can appreciate now that I am in my early 50’s how lucky I was to experience this amazing decade minus all the ridiculous social influencers that are nothing more than empty-headed, self-entitled kids. I was able to just hang out with friends, go to the mall while not worried about school shootings, abductions or being put on meds because I was confused about my identity, was depressed, etc! I pity kids growing up now with so much against them. The 80’s ruled!

It was a feeling, a culture, a way of living. I miss when the world made sense. Long live Gen X and the 1980s. I love you all.

I felt the beginnings of independence then, the great music and movies, meeting my spouse - and Roxy Music’s More Than This, at the time I totally felt the truth of that song’s lyrics, and I cannot think of the 80s and that era without the memory of that song and so many others. I miss that time.

      Yes you’re right. Teens now will never misremember their teenage years as the best times in history like we do. I’m your age and while sentiment can often rise tint my own memories I am under no illusion that it was a perfect time. Kids have to worry about school shooters and we had to worry about the USSR bombing us at school. Maybe you had a dad who was a dentist or had a trust fund but I remember that horrible recession where my parents lost both of their jobs and we almost lost our house; we ate beans and rice for dinner nearly every night. My parents kept me fed but that’s when I learned I had to work if I wanted anything extra and to pay off both of my houses as soon as I could so they couldn’t take it.

I wish I could go back there to hug them all, tell them about my good and bad days living in 2024, asking about their lives, dreams and expectations... if existed a time machine, I would go back there to visit those years and my friends... but unfortunately, that's not possible. I hope now to see them again in Heavens, they were great and lovely people and death separated us... but life passes by and one day I am leaving this planet too taking with me the best memories of my childhood and teen years. 70s and 80s. thank you very much for all those who gave me such beautiful days and memories! 🥰💞💞💞

The values. The simplicity. The lack of social media. Playing outside in the neighborhood. No one had to lock their doors. My grandparents being alive. Miss those days. Miss the 1980s.

      are you drunk? Reagan destroyed the middle class with his trickle-down economics... the first war in Afghanistan, the Cold War, AIDS, bad fashion (parachute pants, shoulder pads, Madonna), the "war" on drugs, racism & sexism were worse, and crime was actually a lot worse in the 80's. The BEST thing from the 80's was that we didn't have to deal with social media.

      @@yonohong7213 Same here, arrived in AZ in 1985, my father was needed there for his work for some time. High school, great music, the attitude, freedom, .. everything! Normally I would have returned to visit with my son last year but my (now ex)wife (and her social media influences) changed all of that. I wish I could go back to the 80's not a hair on my head would doubt about me going back.

      One of the reasons it was such a hugely positive decade was it was run by a strong leader, a conservative who stood up for the country. Reagan came in in 1980 like a savior saving us from the weakness of mealy mouthed Jimmy Carter.
      The first thing he did was get the Iran hostages freed.

Our neighborhood would play night tag and go Christmas caroling. We lived right off of lake Erie Michigan so when the lake froze we would sake on it and even bring four wheelers/three wheelers.
