I’m in Los Angeles, where the wildfires are raging for a fourth day. I just heard that Westwood has been evacuated and even through all the stress and uncertainty I immediately heard this song in my head.
Just heard that Steve Wright has died. His radio 1 show was the 80’s and for me this song will always be associated with a long hot summer I spent working in a garden centre listening to this song on Steve Wright in the afternoon. RIP Steve. Thanks for the memories 😢
Playing this fabulous song and feeling young again although nearing my 74th birthday. Where do the years go. Enjoy all the music that has been part of our lives.
I can not understand how Roddy and Aztec Camera weren't huge. Great musicians, songwriters, singers, not to mention that gorgeous Scottish twinkle in the eyes.
I am watching this video every day many many times such a happy vibe, Roddy so handsome and happy singing all of them are happy, and he's so cool wearing a black leather jacket, this song makes me happy my heart so happy
I’m 33 and I love listening to this song as I bike to my shitty retail job. It makes me feel hopeful and happy, like I still have a chance in this world.

@@alisong5272 I suffer from depression and this song is way better than any pills my doctor prescribed. And the best thing is I can listen to it at any time I feel like and just relax and remember how good the 80's were.
Me and my best friend used to sing along to this when it came on the radio, as we sat in her kitchen drinking coffee. She died of cancer aged 57, Miss you Nese. 💔💔
I can remember so much listening to this song. Driving around east London with the sun shining. Thinking I was the hottest thing since sliced bread. Meeting up with friends, who had your back regardless. Little black dresses and high heels. Big hair and ripped jeans. Just wonderful.
decent song. Hadn't heard it before. But I came of age in the 80s and think it was the worst decade of my 50+ years. I had a good upbringing, family, friends, and experiences. But musically and culturally the 80s were pretty bad, to put it kindly.
Most of my peers says I'm weird because of my age 14 years old I listen to this kind of music 🎶! Well, I simply ignore them. As my aunt says, " it's because you have good taste in music!" Now that's inspiring and comforting!
@@markcf83 old music is good but ignoring all new music is stupid. The only reason old music seems better is because it consists of ~80 years of music while new music only consists of about 10. There will be good and bad songs no matter what era you are listening to.
Still an absolutely magnificent moment in music. Everything gelled at just the right moment here for Roddy to nail one of the all time perfect pop songs. Magnificent construction and performance. Brings back so many happy teenage memories of music.
Its Jamie Davies I live in the UK can you tell me that there's more than billions people all over the world and more than millions people in the UK that love living on their own and love having their own independence and love having their own freedom and love having their own personal space too just the same as me please message me back yes its true please Chris kendall my mate.
OMG! Where was I that I missed this in the 80s when I was in my 20s? I thought I new all the best British groups. This is like finding a diamond in my back yard
This song is magnificent. It's truly a hidden gem amongst most hidden gems for songs I've found. I love to listen to music when I have the time to unwind after a long day.
Ahhhhhh Roddy Frame 😊. Love and High Land, Hard Rain were incredible albums. Who could ever forget Oblivious and Somewhere in My Heart? Frame never got the credit he deserved. Some of those guitar riffs he pulls off on that Gibson guitar are sublime. Excellent song writer as well. So many great bands back in the 80's that were unique and original. There will never be another era like the 80's and I was part of that era!
"Somewhere In My Heart" Summer in the city where the air is still A baby being born to the overkill Well who cares what people say We walk down love's motorway Ambition and love wearing boxing gloves And singing hearts and flowers But somewhere in my heart There is a star that shines for you Silver splits the blue Love will see it through And somewhere in my heart There is the will to set you free All you've got to be Is true A star above the city in the northern chill A baby being born to the overkill No say, no place to go A TV, a radio Ambition and love wearing boxing gloves And singing hearts and flowers But somewhere in my heart There is a star that shines for you Silver splits the blue Love will see it through And somewhere in my heart There is the will to set you free All you've got to be Is true Who could heal What's never been as one And our hearts have been torn Since the day we were born Just like anyone From Westwood to Hollywood The one thing that's understood Is that you can't buy time But you can sell your soul And the closest thing to heaven is to rock and roll But somewhere in my heart There is a star that shines for you Silver splits the blue Love will see it through And somewhere in my heart There is the will to set you free All you've got to be Is true Somewhere in my heart There is a star that shines for you Silver splits the blue Love will see it through And somewhere in my heart There is the will to set you free All you've got to be Is true

I'm addicted to 80s music. Discovering gem after gem. I might be imagining it but the melodies in 80s music are so much stronger more identifiable than songs today.
I am 51 and lived through it. The music was and remains astonishingly creative. Not all of it was great ( a matter of opinion as subjectivity comes into play) but no decade had so many boundary pushing genres.
Damn, the perfect upbeat pop song with a gazillion hooks. And that slight change in cadence @1:15 is pure genius. I could leave this on repeat and have it as background music to lift your spirits throughout the day.
simply do what the rest of your generation does: hang out on youtube leaving hundreds of comments about how "underrated" every '80s group you newly discover is
Growing up I’m the 80’s to now, I’ve heard thousands and thousands of songs in my time. This will always have a place in my top 10 ever greatest songs.

First time i've heard them in 1989 .i recorded them on video cassette and watched them so many times.I love all of the group members and now memories of 1989 coming back to me.Thank you , this song is so inspirational for me.I feel like i have a pair of wings................

I am 71 and still love this song it has everything, clear lyrics, lovely sax and guitar solos
That's awesome to hear 👍
Yes it is!
I discovered this about three years ago after saying 80's music had lost something to me. Now it's on all my playlists, great guitar solo.
Still play it daily
I'm 73 and loving it :)
Ahhh. Remember when we were all still so young & beautiful?
The heart throb, Mr. Roddy Frame.

80s are not only a state of mind, but a statement of Heart.
The best !
Complately true
Agree. So much truly awful stuff was happened in the world in the 80s. I think the films and music was what kept our spirits up.
Heart were good in the 80's too! Thanks for pointing that out.👍

"Somewhere In My Heart"
Summer in the city where the air is still
A baby being born to the overkill
Well who cares what people say
We walk down love's motorway
Ambition and love wearing boxing gloves
And singing hearts and flowers
But somewhere in my heart
There is a star that shines for you
Silver splits the blue
Love will see it through
And somewhere in my heart
There is the will to set you free
All you've got to be
Is true
A star above the city in the northern chill
A baby being born to the overkill
No say, no place to go
A TV, a radio
Ambition and love wearing boxing gloves
And singing hearts and flowers
But somewhere in my heart
There is a star that shines for you
Silver splits the blue
Love will see it through
And somewhere in my heart
There is the will to set you free
All you've got to be
Is true
Who could heal
What's never been as one
And our hearts have been torn
Since the day we were born
Just like anyone
From Westwood to Hollywood
The one thing that's understood
Is that you can't buy time
But you can sell your soul
And the closest thing to heaven is to rock and roll
But somewhere in my heart
There is a star that shines for you
Silver splits the blue
Love will see it through
And somewhere in my heart
There is the will to set you free
All you've got to be
Is true
Somewhere in my heart
There is a star that shines for you
Silver splits the blue
Love will see it through
And somewhere in my heart
There is the will to set you free
All you've got to be
Is true
Thank you! 👍🙂

I am 51 and lived through it. The music was and remains astonishingly creative. Not all of it was great ( a matter of opinion as subjectivity comes into play) but no decade had so many boundary pushing genres.
Nailed it
FACT
Hell yeah weird music and fashion with no tech or cellphones the 80s were just so corn-... i mean cool.
So fresh and so full of energy. Pure bliss.
Damn, the perfect upbeat pop song with a gazillion hooks. And that slight change in cadence @1:15 is pure genius. I could leave this on repeat and have it as background music to lift your spirits throughout the day.
Still listening today, December 10, 2024. Anyone else 😊😊😊?
16th 👍

Love this Song..
Mi too❤
What a wonderful song.......we had a pub quiz team in Belfast called "The Aztecs".....back in the day.....
Im 34yo,and this song brings me nostalgic and memories that aren't even mine 😂.
Long live the 89's and 90's🎉
i’m 27 and absolutely love this song. the 80’s was the best decade for music, i really feel i was born too late!
simply do what the rest of your generation does: hang out on youtube leaving hundreds of comments about how "underrated" every '80s group you newly discover is
Growing up I’m the 80’s to now, I’ve heard thousands and thousands of songs in my time.
This will always have a place in my top 10 ever greatest songs.
Same. Four minutes of joy.
Still has the power to bring back 1989 for me and my late teens freedom
♥♣ LYRICS:
Summer in the city where the air is still - A baby being born to the overkill
Who cares what people say - We walk down love's motorway
A vision of love wearing boxing gloves - And singing hearts and flowers
Chorus:
Somewhere in my heart - There is a star that shines for you
Silver splits the blue - Love will see it through
And somewhere in my heart - There is the will to set you free
All you've got to be is true
A star above the city in the northern chill - A baby being born to the overkill
There's no say no place to go - A tv.and a radio
A vision of love wearing boxing gloves - And singing hearts and flowers
Chorus
Who could heal - What's never been as one
And our hearts have been torn - Since the day we were born Just like anyone
From Westwood to Hollywood - The one thing that's understood
Is that you can't buy time - But you can sell your soul
And the closest thing to heaven is to rock and roll
Chorus
Jedna Lavica great!!!!!
