Maybe I am just getting old but the 80s truly were magical when I look back on them. MTV, Video stores, VHS, Brat Pack movies, the Music.. simpler times
Yup, you're getting old. Me too, by the way, but that just means we'll probably be dead before the world completely goes into the shitter. 💩👍
I think it's because it was the last decade that was really innocent.
Dude! I hear you!
It wasn’t really that great or innocent…There were a lot of things going on that were terrible. Unemployment was high, crime was at a peak, AIDS, crack, many many wars being fought for no reason…When you take off the rose colored glasses let me know
@@ralphdougherty1844 lighten up Francis
Was a big song, especially due to it's use in the movie Top Gun soundtrack.
Berlin was def a great synth band. An earlier cut like "Metro" helped define a sound, compared to "Take my breath away" where a larger audience could access their stuff.
and system of a down did a great cover of Metro. In case they do another cover stream.
...and Berlin is also a great city
I like Berlin's "No more words"
Berlin interpreted the song but the authors were the American Tom Withlock (text) and the Italian Giorgio Morder (music). Thanks to this song, the two authors won the Oscar in 1987.
@@emanuelezambetta1534 You are rigjt
80's was awesome, 90's too.
Not afraid to say this is one of my all time favorite songs
Awesome track, massive hit, about 8 weeks at No 1. Never gets old.👏❤️
"I feel the need... the need for speed!!!"
This song is iconic in "Top Gun" (1986)
🎥✈️
Goose never used an emoji, you shouldn’t either.
HELL YESSSSS!!!!
@@johnobrien1528 If Goose died in a training accident, would you too? 😉
@@SilentBob731 rather that look like a dummy? I’d take that chance…
The 80's were great. Music was done by musicians and song writers and it is still played today. Great reaction guys.
So true,Michael,the 80s ROCKED !!! LOL. Music was sooo GOOD back then,but maybe I'm not being very subjective.
There was amazing melody! Less talk, all sing.
You had me at Berlin. Btw, Terri Nunn REALLY didn't want to do this song because it was SO far from Berlin's genre (Punk/New Wave) she didn't want fans calling them sell outs.
Oddly enough, it brought them a whole new amount of fans.
Crazy too because she has an amazing voice and you can't really express it that sell in the punk genre, new wave moreso.
That being said, their song the metro or metro (can't remember exactly) was really good.
You have that wrong. Terri Nunn wanted to do it and John Crawford hated doing it. When interviewed, Terri said; “Take My Breath Away came along and that was another reason to fight,” Nunn recalls. “John was like ‘That’s not our song, we have our own songs’. I said ‘Who cares? It’s Giorgio Moroder, if he farts, I’ll sing it. I love that guy’. We fought about that, then we fought about the fact we had to play it in concerts, John didn’t like that either." John Crawford and David Diamond have reunited with Terri and are currently touring with her as Berlin. My daughters ex-boyfriend, Carlton Bost, also plays with Berlin on guitar.
@@kutark
I'd say you can express everything better with less sappy music cause in any half-way typical love song the emotions always come off fake.
...If I am not mistaken, Terri was kind of a hot number, I loved her back in the day...I Googled her...she still looks good
@@raymo6795 she was beautiful! I'm glad she took care of herself. So has Debra Harry from Blondie. Oops! Debbie Harry, lol. Last time I saw her she'd gained some weight but, still was as beautiful as ever.
Terri Nunn is an opera trained vocalist, that's pretty apparent on this track. This was the most played song all Summer of 1986, then it won all sorts of awards at the end of the year.
I loved the 80s... i thank the higher force that enabled me to live through that decade...A decade of great tunes, clothing, dance and high energy with lots of fun
The 80s loves you back, Lex!!
Just imagine how many proms this song has been played at since it came out in 1986!
I love the 80's too. Glad they were my teenage years.
I listen to a lot of punk and reggae and hardcore music but these 80's songs have a special place in my heart.
The drum sound on this song is awesome. Actually, the whole thing is awesome. I'm having Top Gun flashbacks.
I would add No More Words to Metro and other songs. I love Berlin so much.
"Sex (I'm A)" and "The Metro" were all over KROQ back in the day.
Berlin, The Go-Go's, The Motels, The Bangles, Missing Persons,...
Female fronted (or full-on female) bands were playing all around Southern California by the time this pop song came out
The smile on Lex's face says it all! Sets a mood and evokes great vibes.
Yeah for real. She definitely gonna make Brad clap them cheeks to this song now.
Now you need to listen to “No more words” or “Dancing in Berlin”
This song takes me right back to 1986 and Top Gun. What a time the 80's were.
I saw Berlin at the old Ritz on 11th street in the East Village in '87. They rocked the sh*t down. At one point Terri Nunn came on the mic and said that every time she comes to NYC she feels like a hick. Didn't sound like a hick that night.
Berlin is still performing this song live during their concerts….they know why people still go to their concerts…they aren’t stupid….this song was first aired back in 1983…..almost forty years…..
I think this was on the prom stream. This was actually a very slow mellow song for Berlin, made for the movie Top Gun. Very different song and sound for Berlin. Big hit song and movie for a great '80s movie . This song was more of a new wave, post-punk ballad. lol. A good one, though. Also, Terri Nunn (singer) is hot. lol
Yall need to look more into Berlin videos and songs. Like " Sex (I'm a ..)", "The Metro" (Lex will love this one, very upbeat and synth heavy!), "Now It's My Turn", "No More Words", and others. BTW, "No More Words" was also on the Vision Quest movie soundtrack just like Journey's "Only The Young".
Berlin was a post -punk, new wave, dance-punk, synth heavy group from LA, California.. Very nice group during the '80s.. Similar to Missing Persons and The Go-Gos (these groups were also from LA, California, yall should check them out, too). Very fun dance, synth, and punky music
Also, the decade of '80s, '90s, and '00s were all great, too.
Great song from Top Gun. Top Gun Maverick premieres tonight at the Cannes Film Festival. The red carpet ceremony was great, with a flyover by the French Blue Angels. Out in France on 3/25 and in the US 3/27
Fun fact: They first had The Motels sing this song, but decided later to go with Berlin. Also the beautiful lead singer of Berlin Terry Nunn did an audition with Harrison Ford, to play Princess Leia in Star Wars, but the part went to Carrie Fisher. I think that worked out for the better.
I think Terri was way hotter than Carrie
@@raymo6795 Yes, but she doesn’t have that deep commanding voice that Carrie Fisher has, which is better suited for Princess Leia. I saw both their auditions, and it was a no brainer. It’s funny though how Terri Nunn acts like she holds a grudge against Harrison Ford. Ultimately he had a big hand on choosing Princess Leia. So Terri has taken a jabs at Harrison Ford, quite a few times at her shows. It sounds like she’s have joking, but I’m not to sure.
I've loved this song ever since I saw this at the drive-in when it first came out. It's one of my earliest memories, actually. My Uncle lived in California. We had just moved to Arizona from Kentucky after My Mom's Mom died and we drove out to visit. He was in the Navy, so of course He piled us all in his car and took us to see it. Good times. I wanna say they won an oscar for this song. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure I read that somewhere fairly recently.
You'd think they would of won something but no.. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Take_My_Breath_Away
I went on My 1st official date 2 see this movie....loved this song on the soundtrack. 👍
Take Care 👍
Another great classic from the Top Gun Soundtrack. "No More Words" "The Metro" "Masquerade" "Now It's My Turn" are my favorites.
Terri Nunn said that this song made them famous and well known to people who didn't knew them. But they hated it. Not their style and it was written by Giorgio Moroder and not themselves. You should check out The Metro and Sex (I'm a). Much more in the Berlin style
Lex - i wish i had a time machine and i could take you & Brad back into the '80's. 'Cause next - i'd take you two back into the '70's so you could compare. Honestly, notwithstanding the music itself, i think you would like the '70's more. People were cooler in the 70's. Just about everyone was the same - we were all lower middle class. True blue collar families were the norm. House after house, neighborhood after neighborhood, city after city. It wasn't until the 80's that more people's income levels became stratified and we sub-divided by income levels and created multiple class levels. And so people became more status-conscious in the 80's. In short - in the 80's - many people started looking for reasons to dislike each other, whereas in the 70's - most people looked for reasons to like each other. Now at the age of 53 and having lived through both decades, that's my memory of growing up. And at the end of our trip - if you still thought you preferred the 80's - then i'd let you & Brad take the time machine back to the 80's and I'd stay back in the coolest decade of all time. Thanks for letting me ramble on with my fantasy on your platform.
I'm also 53, and couldn't agree more!!
@@thomasdempsey721 Thomas - i wish you good health & happiness, my friend.
Project #2, is for Brad and Lex to watch Top Gun, just to hear and see how the song relates to the movie
I agree...👌🏻
This won an Oscar for Best Song (for the movie Top Gun). It also hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Terri Nunn has one of the best female voices in 80's music, and I still going strong.. super hot at 60.. Berlin was very cutting edge for New Wave back then.. Check out "Masquerade ", "No More Words", and "The Metro"..
4 Berlin songs they played a lot on the radio in the early to mid 80's; Masquerade, Tell Me Why, Metro, Sex.
Saw Berlin in concert when this song was huge. Pretty fun concert.
Great song
I can’t stress enough how important the delivery is in terms of the singers performance. Terry absolutely nails the emotion of the song.
Great song I remember when VH1 tried to reunite them on their show Bands United that was a train wreck it's hard to believe that bands that create such a timeless music can dislike each other so much.
I just watched the reunion and I think you are misremembering it.
@@davidarmstrong1219 David Armstrong if it wasn't for me bring it up you wouldn't have a clue that show existed right or wrong Dumb ass John Crawford had no interest in doing this reunion and they had alot of unresolved issues in the group so WTF are saying to me look here David SMD respectfully 🤣😆😆😂
You must be thinking of a different episode because they did get the band back together and it looked like a lot of leftover hard feelings got resolved plus they performed a successful reunion "concert". Everyone appeared happy that it happened.
I saw them a few years ago on the 4th of July. They were very good and Terri sounded great and is still beautiful. They are still touring.
@@staceycromer1172 Stacey Cromer really so they are back together touring that's great .
I love this song. It's been a long time since I heard it.
Fun/weird fact: Madonna wrote in her book that Kelly Mcgillis (The love interest in Top Gun) was the best lover she ever had. Kelly was upset that she wrote that in her book. lol
Terri Nunn is just simply GORGEOUS
Love this song and Terri has such a beautiful voice and spirit. Saw a interview couple months ago with Professor of Rock and she's so free spirited as this song is. Next suggestion would be "Metro". I know y'all would dig that Berlin song 💗🕊️
Lex will love that one! Very upbeat dance, synth heavy, post-punk, new wave. Most of Berlin's songs were like that. Unlike this one (slow ballad made for a movie).
This song is GREAT !!! So soothing,filled with emotion,you never get tired of hearing GOOD music,at least I don't. LOL.
The lead singer, Terri Nunn actually auditioned for the role of Princess Leia in Star Wars, but lost out to Carrie Fisher.
Now that they are watching music videos they need to check out the video Runaway Train by Soul Asylum!
This speaks 80's like very few can, also it reminded me of the other 80's blockbuster "Streets of Fire" and it's soundtrack.
Heart breaking song for me - the last song my gf and I danced to before I left for USMC boot camp - she promised to wait, but . . . heart broken - the one that got away
They never wait man. Jody always gets the girl. Always.
@@Valorius Jody didn’t get the girl - the girl was afraid of a long term commitment due to her poor relationship with her father. She never cheated, she just left a week after I came back
That sucks. I did the same and was lucky that she waited for me. I sent all my money home to her for our wedding and a year later we were hitched. 32 years later, we are as close as ever. My heart bleeds for you, really.
Was she a democrat? If so, you’re better off!😁😁😁😎
She’s the one who got away if you screwed up and lost her because of the screw up. Sounds to me like you’re her one that got away.
Since this is the internet, I’ll clarify that I’m not trying to say anything bad about her. I’m hoping you can see a different perspective on it.
I was predominantly into hard rock and heavy metal in the 80's (still mostly am) but Berlin was one of those bands that just grabbed me and wouldn't let go. Such a cool sound! Terri's voice is fantastic...and I had a major league crush on her 😍
Hearing this in the fitness center, doing reps to the rhythm, pulldowns, pec deck, good old days!
Berlin's song "Sex (I'm a)" is a WHOLE different vibe, would love to see you guys react to that.
I can imagine Brad's furrowed brow now!
Written by Georgio Moroder. In the 1970s, he co wrote or wrote many disco songs. He wrote with late Donna Sommer then. In 1980, GM wrote Call Me 📞 with Debbie Harry. In 1982, he wrote the music 🎶 to Cat People 🐈 while late David Bowie wrote lyrics. GM was on a streak! 😃
Before founding Berlin, Terri Nunn was an actress in small roles. She was in soap operas. 📺 45 years ago🎂, she auditioned for Princess Leia in Star Wars 🌟
Great 👍 song 🎵
There is a more recent video 📹 in Italy 🇮🇹,
Terri Nunn sang this as Kelly McGillis was watching. They never met each other in Top Gun. ✈ The 25+ year anniversary was the 1st time they met!
The video 📹 may not be available: Kelly McGillis was fat and out of shape. 😳 This may be a major reason.
The good news: Terri Nunn had buffed arms! 💪 💪 Even after she gave birth to a daughter! 😃
Terri Nunn can still sing! 👩🎤 She continues to be in shape. She leads a new cast of Berlin. 🙂
Suggested video 📹: No More Words.
Memories flooding my mind listening to this song. Beautiful song
This whole soundtrack/album is fire. So many great memories. I remember practically falling asleep on a girl I was dancing with to this song. I was tired, she was warm and her smelled amazing... I just drifted off, lol.
Terri Nunn has some serious pipes! Check out No More Words where she really cuts loose.
If you imagine a time in the uk when in nightclubs they had a time when the slowsongs came on at the end of the night and girls and guys got together. This was one of them.
Besides being a great singer, Terri Nunn was an aspiring actress. She auditioned for the role of Princess Leia in “Star Wars”. She was also in the 1978 disco classic “Thank God It’s Friday” with Jeff Goldblum and Donna Summer.
I always loved her hair, with the ends a different color.
That song brings back so much memories of my childhood and it’s still a banger
The 80s were the happiest times of modern society, and it really shows in the music that was made during that time.
#1 love ballad of the 80's
Song reminds me of the movie Casino. I believe I'm remembering that right. The slow-mo scene of the guy getting gunned down to this song 😆
Take My Breath Away is a song from the movie Top Gun composed by Giorgio Moroder (music) and written by Tom Whitlock (text), performed by the band Berlin. She appears on the soundtrack album for the film Top Gun as well as on the band's album Count Three and Pray (1986).
Sang by a woman who was really singing how she personally felt at the time. She wasn't a happy person at that point in her life. It really shows in this song.
Brad & Lex, check out their "The Metro" and "Sex (I'm A...)" for their earlier new wave songs!
I love them! I've always favored The Metro, and No More Words.
Metro and No more words are both stellar 🕊️
I'd add Masquerade to this list!
I was kid in the 80's... boy do I miss it!! It was sooo much fun to be alive for the 80's!!!!!!!!! Being a teen in the 90's was a lot of fun too!!!!!! just sayin! lol :)
Class song by Giogio Moroder.
The best music ever was in the 1980s! We rocked, sorry you all missed it :) It was fun and people weren't insane like they are now.
For the longest time, I thought that bassline was done on a fretless bass, so I learned it on fretless as well, really fun to play :)
I later found it was done on a synthesizer...oh well 🥹
This is the song that broke up Berlin. It was featured on the Top Gun soundtrack. It was written by Giorgio Moroder. Berlin was a New Wave band from LA.
My first concert was Berlin - at an Amusement Park! :)
Now you should totally do Show me heaven by Maria McKee. Another great soundtrack from a Tom Cruise movie 🥰 You 2 are great by the way.
*Lots of good Berlin songs...for more try these to begin with; No More Words__You Don't Know__The Metro__Sex (I'm A...)__Now It's My Turn__Masquerade__Like Flames__Touch__Pleasure Victim. Berlin still tours...I found Berlin on fb for show dates.*
How is your font bold bro
@@andrea.mojarro LOL...I get asked often. I just put an asterisk (star*) at the beginning and end, of what I want in bold, as you would with quotation marks. I found this out by accident once when using the asterisk instead of quotation marks. Leave no spacing between the asterisk and letter (or final punctuation) at the beginning and end.
This was played at every prom I went to in '87 and '88! lol (yeah, I went to a few across The Lou...lol) Always a good slow dance song with maybe a smooch at the end...lol 😉
remember seeing Terri Nunn up close at their show as she walked through the audience. just stunning. She' was one of my first music crushes. We went to their show all metaled out to see her. haha.
Like Flames is a very cool song of them, too.
This such a beautful dreamy song I remember having a crush and you really understood this song and then another telling me I took thier breath away. Its a wonderful song
This song won an Oscar.
Watch this movie before the new one comes out. “Top Gun” is a classic. New one looks great too. Tom Cruise wouldnt do a sequel unless it was done right and they actually were in those planes. The actors in the new one had to go through crazy training to even be able to physically do the movie. Check out the Top Gun sequel behind the scenes trailer. Holy shit is it cool…
Power Ballad is an Apt Description
This was released the year i was born : 1986 :)
This is the first song my late wife and I danced to.
One more Top Gun song is "Cheap Trick - Mighty Wings".
Iconic song from an iconic movie! Nuff said lol
You really need to listen to a Berlin song like flames. Or no more words. You will hear the power in Terri Nunn voice.
I would've paid very little attention to this song if it wasn't for Top Gun. Yet this song takes me immediately back to 1986 and to the movie. Awesome time and awesome movie.
Nostalgic.
Great baby making song. ❤❤❤❤❤
DEF a music VIDEO song from the 80's...high fives guys!
Relaxing was NOT what the 2 stars were up to while the song was playing in the movie. Hint its called the LOVE theme. As for the video the young lady singing is standing in the shell of a military cargo plane. In the desert at night. With appropriate wind to blow her blond hair. 😆 Watched this movie so many times. Especially with my Father. Was 10 in 86.You missed out kids. Mid 80s were a high point in history.
I always wondered what type plane they were standing on in the graveyard. I always thought it was a bomber with the number of crew they showed at the end of the video. I just couldn’t figure out what two engine bomber it could be, though. Thank you for clarifying that.
You guys should check out the song that put Berlin on the music map..."Sex (I'm a)"
Also a fun fact...
On the first album in addition to vocals Terri Nunn is credited with "BJs".
*Bad Jokes 🤣😂
First album IMO was the best. Also worth a listen from it "Torture", "Masquerade", "Metro", and "Pleasure Victim".
I never saw this movie but I remember this song.
Berlin has some great tunes.. "Sex...I'm a" and "The Metro" are two of my favorites from 1982
Isn't Berlin the definition of a one hit wonder?
Absolutely not.
@@Valorius Not entirely.. they had a few good hits, so much in fact they don't have to work any more.. maybe an appearance here and there
@@Valorius Flock of Seagulls is a one hit wonder. Sure, there was another tune by them that hit the top 100, but "I Ran" was their bread and butter
@@ChrisFaulkner One would think the money from Take my breath away would sustain them for life, if they werent dumb with their money.
"The Metro" is unforgettable
So obviously you guys have never seen Top Gun since you didn't recognize this right away. You should definitely check that movie out if you guys ever do movie reactions. (Or just watch it on your own for fun.) It's a real fun ride.
this was more pop for them, you should try some of their other earlier stuff (some a bit scandalous at the time). "Sex" "Pleasure Victim" "Metro". "No More Words" was also pop-like, but they did it really well. I do enjoy Berlin, they were really great. Are they still active?
for real.
Vocal on this is astounding
They knew how to do ballads in the 80s... 😍
Lex's smile gives such great vibes,
I'm sure it's been said in the comments already, but this was more of a Giorgio Moroder song featuring Teri Nunn of Berlin. Nothing wrong with that, I love me some Giorgio Moroder! But you should definitely check out anything from Berlin that was released prior to this song.
The only Berlin song I really know other than this is Metro, and even there I waaaaay prefer the SoaD version.
@@mage1439 "Sex (I'm a...)", "Masquerade", "No More Words", "Now It's My Turn". Those along with "Metro" never left Alternative radio airwaves in the 80s. They're so familiar to me that I forget that they weren't all Billboard Top 10 pop hits. 🤷♂️
