    The 80's were a magical time... Especially to be a kid... The music really took on a specific sound that just embodies the decade so well... I miss it. If we only knew what was coming... Ugh

      Ohhhh, Jason. I couldn't agree with your comment more. The words just aren't there to describe the magnificence of the 1980s. Especially the music, the movies, even TV, it was just absolutely magical. And as you said, we had no idea. We just didn't know the gift we have been given as kids, that childhood was sooooo good.

      Totalmente de acuerdo !, 👏, aún recuerdo esos tiempos bro, no lo se, creo que fueron " magicos ", pues me hacían soñar , que todo era posible !.
      Hoy a mis 52 años y en este momento que leo tu comentario, me hiciste recordar mi niñez y pre-adolescencia , ¡¡ magia bro, sueños !!, les deseo a todos una Feliz Navidad y un año 2024 lleno de salud, amor, y bondad !!.😊

      While in the store Bed ,Bath, and Beyond , they played this on their sound system. I had totally forgotten about it. I forgot the title. I got home, when to TH-cam and just entered "promise" on a guess and gave a big yell..."YES ! Immediately put it in my favorite. And come back to it every few weeks.
