    I was 12 when this came out, it was a total banger when it came out. 42 years later, i am still singing it and just about everyone my age still loves it. As you said, it makes you think of summer and happy days, totally uplifting.

    If you only have one great hit song, if it’s Come on Eileen. Then it’s worth it. For this song will reverberates for all eternity…

    This is my first video of yours. I love this song (since I was a child) and I'm happy you got it and liked it a lot. It's a super fun put you in a good mood kind of song.❤ There are thousands of great songs you have to hear. I will tell you some now...start with a band called "Heart" some great songs to start with are Love Alive, Sing Child, Mistral Wind and Crazy on You. They have around 129 others that are really great, too. Enjoy listening.❤

      @@Dreyno Thank you for the geo political lesson. Many people around the globe are still not knowledgeable about even their own borders. If you asked the average American how many states there are I think a high percentage would get the answer wrong. I’m sure our Australian friend meant no disrespect and actually he mentions having been to Great Britain but he doesn’t say he visited Ireland. Also as far as the setting of the video goes it could easily be somewhere in Ireland, Scotland, Wales or indeed South London. Cheers from a Yank that just loves good music.

    This was a big hit for them but I don’t think they had any others. If you want some songs from the 80’s or 70’s there are so many.
    Here’s a few in no particular order:
    Queen - Hammer to Fall
    Kansas - Carry On Wayward Son
    Foreigner - Cold As Ice
    Chicago - 25 or 6 to 4
    Kiss - I Was Made For Lovin’ You
    Flock Of Seagulls - Run (So Far Away)
    Boston - More Than A Feelin’
    Tears For Fears - Shout
    Yes - Owner of A Lonely Heart
    There, that should add some variety. 😀
