As a field technician I drive long distances, get stuck in traffic a lot,so I play this song on a continous loop whenever and wherever I drive to relax and calm me down on a long drive and day. I was born in the 80s, did not get to enjoy much of it, but I feel nostalgic about it all the time.

Ok, I’m obsessed with this album, I can’t find any other bands that compare, help me, there must be some other songs that I can still enjoy after fm-84, suggestions?
Heard this after coming back from a month long vacation just surfing thru YT and saw this band and The Midnight. I immediately fell in love with the whole genre and music videos. Bringing me back to a time of innocence and good vibes when I was a kid in the 80’s
i miss the end of the eighties...i guess it was the most pleasant period of my life, discovering hall and oates, the cars, pm, icehouse....thanks fm 84 for reinventing the sound of this decade
Thanks for your words to me also made me dream thanks to FM 84 I can rest from so much commercial music and come back to those beautiful times and meet you now I can say that I'm not alone anymore
And Don't forget, The Lost Boys! The very first real sexy vampire movie. The Corey Boys, Jaime Gertz and Keifer Sutherland. It was the Underworld of that day and era. Sleek and sexy. Also, one or two of the guys who were part of the fab four Lost Boys also died last year. I think the one who played Marco. And the guy with the really black hair passed away from cancer or something unless I'm mistaking. But it was an illness. My ex wife drooled over him like a fat man getting ready to eat a burger-lol.
This song! I've been listening to it over and over and over. This song. This Song. And this man's voice...I'm breathless. Amazing...the song, the lyrics, the vocals, the music...everything. Amazing.
Cocktails and Dreams....film stupendo in un'epoca stupenda abbinato con una canzone meravigliosa. Che dire meno male che esiste questi nuovi cantanti come fm 84 sconosciuti al mainstream ma di successo nel web 2.0!!!!!! ❤
I woke up today and turned this song while on bed looking as the sun is shining to me. Now it is a midnight, I watch lights turning on and listening to this song again. What an irony and pleasure at the same time. Love it.
Everybody talking about how '80s this sounds, but honestly, to me it feels much more like the sound of the future, while of course retaining a lot of characteristics that gave '80s music its flavor. In general, I firmly believe that '80s influences will play a fundamental role in establishing the future of mainstream music as a whole. While real, deep artistry was vastly pushed into the background of the public eye in the late 2000s to mid-2010s, I feel like the 2020s, and Gen Z in particular, have brought about a diversification, deepening, and renaissance of artistic freedom in mainstream music the likes of which we last saw in the mid-'90s, and I *love it!*
Thing about Synthwave is that -- much like Vaporwave does in a sarcastic way regarding comsume-culture -- does remember a 1980s that didn't exist in reality but merely on TV and the Silver-screen. A fever dream of future optimism and technological anticipation as well as the best elements from the "good ol' days" of a high trust society. The future is here, yet the optimism and anticipation, virtuosity ... the innocence is gone, vanished and deconstructed in Focus group and committee marketing to appease share holders. Same as the hight trust society.
Bloodstain Lane returns and influences the masses immediately. The 80's vibe on this is tremendous. You have to listen to this in a White Miami Vice suit.
Rage Punk Hey now, this is the Internet fellas. Let's all just take a step back and remember why we're all here: To watch and enjoy the videos that I've made for each of you to enjoy
Well??? It's 3 years later. Did you in fact obtain your driver's license? Did you in fact listen to this song while driving around during the rain at night? We're waiting!?? 🤔🤔🤔

I started our friendship with a half-truth. Some would say a half-truth is a lie. Others would reply it's unnecessary. I now realize it was a mistake. You deserve better. I did what i had to in order to get what I needed so that I may breathe a little easier. I was desperate to improve my situation, and you were there to guide me. I'm grateful for your friendship, and even though I may have missed an opportunity to get closer to you, I have no regrets because your advice, sense of humor and compassion proved to me there are women out there like you. So unless you forgive me and hold your hand outstretched for me to embrace, the search continues...
Nasci no meio dos anos 70, os anos 80 foi bem aproveitado, Sinto muita falta daquela vida analógica sem a influência das redes sociais, me sinto privilegiado por ter passado pela melhor década de todos os tempos!
That's def no accident. It's kind of ridiculous how much I think about a song and what I might pair it with before I start cutting something. Usually takes me a couple of weeks to review and plan, sometimes more. Glad you're enjoying them all. It's my way of showing my love for their music in a way that helps others enjoy it (hopefully) too.
I always fancied myself as a bit of an aficionado on 80's music and was confused when my daughter started playing this as I'd never heard it before, now I know it's from a 2016 album it explains why. This is a masterpiece of retro synth pop and I love it, so much that i went and bought the Atlas album in iTunes. @OllieWride your voice is sublime on this song and compliments the track perfectly. Shame there doesn't appear to be an official video but I can forgive the cheesy Cocktail clips..
THE best song I've ever heard in my life period! It just simply makes my emotions boil over since I connect that with the love of my life (who I have not met yet) and makes me want to give love to her to make her feel special.
Glad I’m not the only one who went out and bought this movie after watching this video. What an amazing song, and I can say it’s just as amazing live in concert!
For me, it's one of the bests ballads production already made! The atmosphere and scenes from waterfalls from Jamaica are stunning!!!! Cocktail movie 💜
How I wish we could just press a button n be back in the 80's x life seemed so happy,carefree and less stressful x where dreams came true when now it seems all negative nightmare stuff x in times like this it really helps to have these beautiful songs n vids to remind us life wasn't always bad x
Just watched this movie today with this tune in mind ( yes i know wasnt a part of the soundtrack and many years later ) and if there was a way to add this to the movie, it would give it extra charm. FM84 are great guys and performers too! Saw them last summer in Boston!

Bore off.

Ollie Wride is the man....your voice is enchanting...
Thank you so much x
It's a pleasure.
wait... i thought the singer was a girl
kolarov ....not a girl but a beautiful tone to his voice.
unless it's digitally modified or something, that voice sounds like a woman 100%
A song that never gets old. Beautiful
5 years ago, this is still a timeless classic
Why isn't this is HUGE hit
because we're living in Piss Earth
Porque no vivimos en los 80s, tal vez en aquellos años hubiese sido un hit 😪
people like shitty music today
Those who enjoy synthwave love FM-84.
Ok, I’m obsessed with this album, I can’t find any other bands that compare, help me, there must be some other songs that I can still enjoy after fm-84, suggestions?
Imagine one of these views is a mistake, led into this by the TH-cam vortex. Suddenly you hear FM-84 for the first time, What a lucky stumble!

Cant get more 80s than this, nostalgia at its finest
Word ❤❤
I honestly didn’t realize that Ollie Wride is a man. He’s got the most beautiful voice. Millions of times better than every mainstream singer.
Same.
Thought the same but wow he has a beautiful voice
Funny how a 2016 song can be so 1984. Brilliant, just brilliant!

so basically you were out of the loop.....
arno tv Early 80s was better. 84 was an awesome year
Tom Cruise in the '80s
Amazing. Just re-watched Risky Business last night.
Hell yeah, Phil Collins "In the Air Tonight" on the soundtrack; best part of that film IMO.
Thank you. I was just wondering what the Name of that Movie is
I’m so upset that I just now discovered these artists. I live this sound. This is art.
You got that right. The bands in this genre are something special
This song! I've been listening to it over and over and over. This song. This Song.
And this man's voice...I'm breathless. Amazing...the song, the lyrics, the vocals, the music...everything. Amazing.
Me too - it's AMAZING isn't it
What? I've been doing the same but i thought this was a female vocal, my mind is blown :/
Very good.

i love this song since 2019
What a beautiful song, so pleased my son recommended me giving fm84 a listen as he has already introduced me to the fantastic ollie wride.
This is too good for the mainstream music these days. NRW for lyf the 80s will never die📼⚡️❤️
I'm glad to be part of this era
lyrics:
It’s not through lack of feeling
That my heads against the wall
Convince me that I’m dreaming
and you’re waiting by my door
I know that I’ve been chasing my tail now
I’ve been dragging us both down to our knees
If you want to escape just say now
You always knew what was good for me
Don’t want to change
Don’t want to change your mind
Don’t want to change
Don’t want to change your mind
I’m not looking for half answers
To gain a sense of this
Just let me lose my head for a while
Then, I’ll be whatever you insist
I know that I’ve been chasing my tail now
I’ve been dragging us both down to our knees
If you want to escape just say now
You always knew what was good for me
Don’t want to change
Don’t want to change your mind
Don’t want to change
Don’t want to change your mind
I’ve let all my defences run
Talked every dream that we had dry
And as I reach the no return
You pull me back and everythings right
Thanks
People like you is what makes this world better
Just one word - WOW! So romantic and so cool too! Romantic is not always cool but this is by every means.
Wow the power and the intensity of this song is crazy.Thank you.
