Yes, great memories of good times. I was in high school and the pleasure of watching this video was not as easy as it is today, we had to stay up and wait to see it, man these kids got it made today. i also think about my mom and how young she was then, but I thought she was old. Ha, ha. She's 76 today. I Love you, Mom.
There is an atmosphere about this song that even as a kid got the hairs on the back of my neck standing up. This is a really classic track. It has stood the test of time.
Anytime you hear a "call back" (repeat or sing next line) on the chorus it gets ppls attention. Especially a falsetto like Frankie Valli then most everyone gets goosebumps or chills.
No way...Holding back tears so that I can watch this. Makes me realise that time is relative. While watching this, Im a young man. The older me, remembers the younger me.
I was in middle school when this came out. I heard it on the radio and made my parents sit in the car with me in the garage until it was done. The production, arrangement, songwriting -- all gorgeous. I decided at that moment I would be a professional musician and music producer. And that's what I am. I'll always be grateful to Tom Bailey and crew for that moment, and this song, in my life.
I hope u have listened 2 Japan & there songs, especially the album tin drum, will blow ure socks of, u will not b dissappointed, the production, arrangement, the togetherness in harmony is perfection
I'm 54. Grew up in 80s. But I'll let 90s sneak into our little club. I know R&B broke through, but it was tame. It was small enough to let pop & rock lead.
I'm old as hell, having lived through the '60s. Damn good music in that decade. The music of the 1980s, along with the great music videos, pretty well matched it. Amazing stuff. Which decade is better? Doesn't matter. You love what you love.
My uncle died last month. Every time he picked me up from soccer games, he’d blast good 80’s music. This was his favorite, and listening to it now just brings sorrow. I still can’t believe he’s gone
I’ve lost everything but my son… I used to play this to him and dance in our back garden at our old house… he was about 3 then and that was about 10 years ago… THIS, and Starship, Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now… He was such a fat, chubby, cuddly, happy baby and, somehow, these two songs bring us together throughout all we have lost. Side note: my friend used to play and tour with The Thompson Twins on drums!😊
I am so old and grumpy , arthritis, ect old peoples stuff but I still know every word and go back in time to when I was young and active the world was exciting and the future was bright and filled with choices Career, romance Wonderful trip down memory lane
There's no more creativity in music anymore. It's always the same. The voices all sound the same and just can't capture the magic of the decades of old. Though contradictory to that statement there are a lot of amazing synth wave of today I discovered a lot of them through this retro wave wallpapers app on my phone that plays retro style synthwave music, my all time favorite would be this song called Still Haunting Me by Magic Dance. I highly recommend it, it needs to be heard. But in general the standard popular music is today just has no magic anymore.
@@GeddyLeeBell There is as much great music today as ever. You forgot or never heard the less popular songs on less successful albums from decades ago -- songs that got little to no radio play. Today, you can find almost anything online if you're willing to listen.
I absolutely love this song even after all these years,I'm 60 and there will never again be a decade like the 80s. Brings back so many awesome memories. 😊😊🖤
The Thompson Twins are actually British. Tom Bailey's ex-wife Alannah Currie was indeed from New Zealand. When they were married they lived in New Zealand until their divorce in 2003. Joe Leeway is now a hypno therapist in Tarzana California and a certified technician .@@dennisthorpe8134

Me and my brother owned a gym back in the 80’s this song was always on. MTV. He died last month. I played this song while taking his ashes out to sea 🌊. Rip bro 😎. See u down the road.
No kiddin on what happened to the time. LOL Remember back then when older people would tell us to pay attention to and enjoy life, it'll be gone before you know it? Yeah, I think we're experiencing that now. 😄
@@MrsWuschwusch compared to John Lennon's previous 40 years in the ground, you've lived a life of kings. You know, not dead and all. If you're breathing, you have to be grateful for at least that. Have some perspective, you're well enough to enjoy good music aren't you
This is one of the best songs EVER made. Def gets a score of 10/10. One of the legendary 80's songs that lives on...still sounds as good as the day it came out...never gets old...
i bought a new 1983 Mustang LX 5.0 5 speed convertible in '83. There were tons of Great songs to crank up as drove around in '82-86. Best days of my life!
I think Howard Jones 'What is Love' is one of the best songs EVER also. Amazingly neither got to number one in the UK charts. This got to no.4 and Howard Jones no.2
Was on a red-eye from SFO to Orlando FL to go to Navy boot camp on December 18, 1983, had a back row of seats all to myself. Fell asleep during flight with headphones on my ears, connected to plane's audio system. Hold Me Now along with a few other songs were in a continuous playing loop over a few hours I was asleep and this song is thankfully Ingrained in my head for life. Beautiful song along with Spandau Ballet's "True", and Simply Red's "Holding Back the Years". Good to see more of you out there appreciate the music.
God gives you those memories to share the good ones with the ones you love. Be strong brother, your best days may just show up unannounced when you least expect it.
I don't care about who is still listening in 2024. What I will say is this song was released in 1983. For those of us who were in our late teens to early 20's, it was a great time in life and music. I love the feeling it still gives me now that I'm in my early 60's.
This song popped into my head the other day, out of the blue. When it came out, It struck me hard at the time, 12, clueless, and skipping along the pond of life. 39 years later, I'm blown away at how well produced, arranged, and performed it is. The 80's just crushed it, and I'm lucky to have been coming of age at the time. It sent me on an 80's journey of music.
Flicking through the radio stations while taking my son footie training, l happened upon this song and was instantly transported through a wormhole to my teens! Can't describe the emotions that suddenly came over me, and my pining for what were the best years of my life!
It was good to go back to a time when we had real music to listen to. How much of the new noise will still be played in 30 years time ? But my money says you will still be able to listen to 60's 70's and 80's music
J'm an Italian fan 58 years old and j have a big dream for me It's criminal that a band like them isn't playing their Art anymore J'd like to suggest a maybe utopistic proposal: why all' the fans that still love them so much and we'll always do won't all make a petition a collection of signatures and send to all' of them asking to reform their fantastic band?Maybe it's a crazy idea but why we don't try and proove Them how much we still love Them j really hope someone will join my idea
Nice one! ☺️Their music was an anthem for the 80s. Like a lot of bands that made music then. It really defied a decade, in a happy way. To me the 80s felt like it was summer all the time😌☀️☀️
Back in those days. Music was still meant for freedom! Look at the 60s, 70s. The 80s was a natural progression from something beautiful, into something more beautiful! There was so many interesting styles in the 80s. From punk to new wave to reggae and so on.✌️
I have a picture Pinned to my wall An image of you and of me and we're laughing, we're loving it all But look at our life now All tattered and torn We fuss and we fight and delight in the tears that we cry until dawn Oh, whoa Hold me now, whoa Warm my heart Stay with me Let loving start Let loving start You say I'm a dreamer, we're two of a kind Both of us searching for some perfect world we know we'll never find So perhaps I should leave here Yeah, yeah, and go far away But you know that there's nowhere that I'd rather be than with you here today Oh, whoa, oh, whoa Hold me now, whoa Warm my heart Stay with me Let loving start Let loving start, whoa Hold me now, whoa Warm my heart Stay with me Let loving start Let loving start, whoa You ask if I love you Well, what could I say? You know that I do and that this is just one of those games that we play So I'll sing you a new song Please don't cry anymore I'll even ask your forgiveness Though I don't know just what I'm asking it for Oh, whoa, oh, whoa Hold me now, whoa (Hold me in your loving arms) Warm my heart (Warm my cold and tired heart) Stay with me (Stay with me) Let loving start Let loving start, whoa Hold me now, whoa (Hold me in your loving arms) Warm my heart (Warm my cold and tired heart) Stay with me Let loving start Let loving start, whoa Hold me now, whoa (Hold me in your loving arms) Warm my heart (Warm my cold and tired heart) Stay with me (Stay with me) Let loving start Let loving start, whoa Hold me now, whoa (Hold me in your loving arms) Warm my heart (Warm my cold and tired heart) Stay with me (Stay with me) Let loving start Let loving start, whoa Hold me now, whoa (Hold me in your loving arms) Warm my heart (Warm my cold and tired heart) Stay with me (Stay with me) Let loving start Let loving start, whoa
My best friend (at the time) and I used to sing this when getting changed after going swimming during a brief spell of unemployment in 1982/83. I'd sing one line, he'd sing the next and so on....... Nothing gay - just two pals belting out an awesome song. 👌
I heard this on MTV so much when I was in my 20's and didn't pay any attention. Now it's re-entered my mind at 65 for some mysterious reason and I am really loving it!
Oh how I long for such fresh sounds and melodies in this grey era, October 2024. Nothing sounded quite like this, and then the next week another 80's band came up with something completely new, and thus it went on week after week, new new NEW. Creativity, where art thou now?
I'm watching this at 53 and despite the years, despite the pain, despite the neverending scramble of life I'm still that girl who listened to this song so long ago bopping out with her friends. I'm still f*cking ME!
I have a sister. She took me to Purdue University. Clowes hall. Berlin opened. Before Take my Breath Away. It was just a bit lewd. Still I will never ever forget the BEST Twins EVER.
I lived through the 80s with my sisters. What a great time! Driving around town with the top down listening to great music. Both sisters are gone and I just lost my dad. Now, the music that I love, makes me cry. 😢
Why VEVO RESTART the republication of every video of Thompaon Twins???? with only few views???? Where did the millions of views go??? ..No one fanatics of Thompson Twins did you notice this? SHAME!!!
Hard to believe TT unleashed this wonder hit 4 decades ago. These British popsters told music fans to " Hold Me Now". Music fans still do even in this day and age!
So figure out to make a dent life for yourself. The Boomers were the first generation to hv a real childhood. Unfortunately most of us had disrespectful parents.
I was 10, where did all the hope we had go? How do we get it back? I am convinced it is in these 80's songs somewhere. Only free spirits can find it though, hope yours still is, mine is!
Tears of gratitude and joy roll down my face as I reflect on the great memories that are attached to this timeless song. I was 14 in 1984 and 53 today. Great times back then. Damn it was so freakin awesome to be a teen in the 80's.
It's sad but hearing this song on the radio, not watching this video is why I thought it could be a number one song. Yeah that's the way I use to think.

No truer words have ever been uttered.
...and the 70s.
That's a classic rock from the 80's
I love this song
Cobra kai with the 80s music. Makes it so much better and kind of feels like an 80s show. Great song
Glad to hear this 80s classic on Cobra Kai
It took me way back 😊
Just finished it!

love this song even though I'm now 72, great memories of good times!!
I'm 37, and I'd almost switch places with you to be in my thirties in the eighties. It must have been magical ❤️
Beautiful song

YES! God, those were the days.
I had an office tape recorder playing this, 4 "c" sized batteries, oh man those were the times.😊
There is an atmosphere about this song that even as a kid got the hairs on the back of my neck standing up. This is a really classic track. It has stood the test of time.
I didn't have any hairs on the back of my neck in those days. That shows the magic of this song.
I always liked this song!
96 baby over here and this song is still a banger.
Anytime you hear a "call back" (repeat or sing next line) on the chorus it gets ppls attention. Especially a falsetto like Frankie Valli then most everyone gets goosebumps or chills.
This song was literally lightning in a bottle.
Dear 80's, I miss you!!
All of us growing up in the 70’s and 80’s…..WERE BLESSED! The music rocked
Absolutely we did ☝️🎶🎼🎵
I love this song I’m was born 1982
Thank goodness we were witnesses to this awesome era 🫶🏿
Indeed, now just made, pushed & over produced Satanic BS throughout all the music industry with auto tune!
Sickening.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I miss the 80s
My wife and i are 70's babies. 1970 & 1975. Love this song!
I want to go back....please.
With what I know now?

👍
Me too
Yes !! Please!!!
No way...Holding back tears so that I can watch this. Makes me realise that time is relative. While watching this, Im a young man. The older me, remembers the younger me.
Time is a thief
@@goldenvulture6818 A mean thief
That's the power of music.
Best comment. So damn true
Welcome to the club my friend! I wish I could find a time machine to take me back to 1981 the year I graduated from high school.
This song deserves more recognition & credit to what it has.
Nothing can't out compete our Era. Long live Gen X
Baby boomers too!!!
I Don't know ? Us boomers rocked!!!
It may have been Gen X kids listening but the music/artist was made by MY BABY BOOMERS! ❤❤
Not true im afraid. @@TheOlskool4ever
@@TheOlskool4everwe were the best generation for music the BB.

Just want to say that I subscribed to your channel just because of your antidote
Was in middle school, too, when it came out. Remember listening to it on my portable cassette player.
I mean it's ok, wouldn't say its near the best of the 80s
I hope u have listened 2 Japan & there songs, especially the album tin drum, will blow ure socks of, u will not b dissappointed, the production, arrangement, the togetherness in harmony is perfection
Just sit back and let the killer bass and vibes wash over you and sweep you away.
God, I miss the 80s.
We had the best music ever. 70s & 80s will never be matched. We had it all.
Coming back from war to discover all is lost is not having it all.
100%
I'm 54. Grew up in 80s. But I'll let 90s sneak into our little club. I know R&B broke through, but it was tame. It was small enough to let pop & rock lead.

@@michaelmelen9062 amen my friend
I was born June 1990 but my heart was beating in the 80s ❤️
In addition to giving you the gift of life, it appears your parent(s) gave you the gift of music. ✌🏻
My uncle died last month. Every time he picked me up from soccer games, he’d blast good 80’s music. This was his favorite, and listening to it now just brings sorrow. I still can’t believe he’s gone
By celebrating his influence on you by playing songs he liked, you may find joy in that grief. Joy for his life and the ripples he cast.
I’ve lost everything but my son… I used to play this to him and dance in our back garden at our old house… he was about 3 then and that was about 10 years ago… THIS, and Starship, Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now…
He was such a fat, chubby, cuddly, happy baby and, somehow, these two songs bring us together throughout all we have lost.
Side note: my friend used to play and tour with The Thompson Twins on drums!😊
When they are still in your Heart
They are never totally gone...
Great tune 80s superb decade here's to your uncle ❤
So sorry for your loss, may this song bring back good memories
The 80s were just magical, phenomenal and unforgettable. 💯💯💯
I’d do anything to go back 😢
Xp@@Nick-oh5dd
Certainly produced MANY phenomenally creative sounds. The last decade to do so (IMO).
Yes indeed
We didn't know it, we were too busy living it, enjoying it. We were so lucky weren't we...
I am so old and grumpy , arthritis, ect old peoples stuff but I still know every word and go back in time to when I was young and active the world was exciting and the future was bright and filled with choices Career, romance
Wonderful trip down memory lane
Yup...me, too. Arthritis & all...77, but still kicking. Figuratively tapping...& still absolutely LOVING this song!!! Glad to have found it again. 🥹
❤
The music today will never compare to the 80s.❤
Damned right! How many songs written today could ever be regarded as a classic?
WAP is definitely a classic. For different reasons though. . .

Good song!

Thr Brits are without amy doubt blessed with musical talent. Its narural and they made my youth in the 80s so special.
I agree whole heartedly ❤
This is a New Zealand group

it does, indeed.
Yep. Id like to go back😭💔👣🙏
Yeah 😢 The best time of my life ❤. Would love to go back.
Nope.
Who's here because you can't sleep. Cool song. I enjoyed the video when it came out.

A song that gently reminds me of the past.
From the comments only someone can feel how much this song is still appreciated and loved. Only love can do that 💙💙💙
Man, is it weird that after all these years I still get choked up listening to this song? Life man...

This song popped into my head the other day, out of the blue. When it came out, It struck me hard at the time, 12, clueless, and skipping along the pond of life. 39 years later, I'm blown away at how well produced, arranged, and performed it is. The 80's just crushed it, and I'm lucky to have been coming of age at the time. It sent me on an 80's journey of music.

J'm an Italian fan 58 years old and j have a big dream for me It's criminal that a band like them isn't playing their Art anymore J'd like to suggest a maybe utopistic proposal: why all' the fans that still love them so much and we'll always do won't all make a petition a collection of signatures and send to all' of them asking to reform their fantastic band?Maybe it's a crazy idea but why we don't try and proove Them how much we still love Them j really hope someone will join my idea

Stay with me. I'm here 2024
The medley is my favorite part
One of the songs that defined the 80's
I miss the carefree days of the 80's! Awesome times with songs like this one!
Recuerdo mis bailes en las discotecas con esta bellísima canción, una de mis favoritas. Ahora la bailo en mi casa 😊
"Let loving start and Stay with me" are just two legendary phrases. It makes me want to cry when I hear those two phrases.
I was 12 when this song was released in North America. I’m still enjoying it in 2024. A more happy, undeveloped time.The 80s was a fun time.
Mee tooo! I was a super super Thompson Twins fan
Nice one! ☺️Their music was an anthem for the 80s. Like a lot of bands that made music then. It really defied a decade, in a happy way. To me the 80s felt like it was summer all the time😌☀️☀️
I agree so much, song are getting boring lately
Back in those days. Music was still meant for freedom! Look at the 60s, 70s. The 80s was a natural progression from something beautiful, into something more beautiful! There was so many interesting styles in the 80s. From punk to new wave to reggae and so on.✌️
Someting special about the 1980s, Thompson Twins are magical..

Hawk: ohhh Demitri!!!
Demitri: IT WASNT ME!!!
I have a picture
Pinned to my wall
An image of you and of me and we're laughing, we're loving it all
But look at our life now
All tattered and torn
We fuss and we fight and delight in the tears that we cry until dawn
Oh, whoa
Hold me now, whoa
Warm my heart
Stay with me
Let loving start
Let loving start
You say I'm a dreamer, we're two of a kind
Both of us searching for some perfect world we know we'll never find
So perhaps I should leave here
Yeah, yeah, and go far away
But you know that there's nowhere that I'd rather be than with you here today
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa
Hold me now, whoa
Warm my heart
Stay with me
Let loving start
Let loving start, whoa
Hold me now, whoa
Warm my heart
Stay with me
Let loving start
Let loving start, whoa
You ask if I love you
Well, what could I say?
You know that I do and that this is just one of those games that we play
So I'll sing you a new song
Please don't cry anymore
I'll even ask your forgiveness
Though I don't know just what I'm asking it for
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa
Hold me now, whoa
(Hold me in your loving arms)
Warm my heart
(Warm my cold and tired heart)
Stay with me
(Stay with me)
Let loving start
Let loving start, whoa
Hold me now, whoa
(Hold me in your loving arms)
Warm my heart
(Warm my cold and tired heart)
Stay with me
Let loving start
Let loving start, whoa
Hold me now, whoa
(Hold me in your loving arms)
Warm my heart
(Warm my cold and tired heart)
Stay with me
(Stay with me)
Let loving start
Let loving start, whoa
Hold me now, whoa
(Hold me in your loving arms)
Warm my heart
(Warm my cold and tired heart)
Stay with me
(Stay with me)
Let loving start
Let loving start, whoa
Hold me now, whoa
(Hold me in your loving arms)
Warm my heart
(Warm my cold and tired heart)
Stay with me
(Stay with me)
Let loving start
Let loving start, whoa

My best friend (at the time) and I used to sing this when getting changed after going swimming during a brief spell of unemployment in 1982/83. I'd sing one line, he'd sing the next and so on....... Nothing gay - just two pals belting out an awesome song. 👌
Love love love it
Thanks for posting the lyrics; I always appreciate it when people do that 😊
❤❤
One of the best 80´s songs
Aaahhhh!!! I can do nothing but smile!!! Wonderful 80s memories!
I heard this on MTV so much when I was in my 20's and didn't pay any attention. Now it's re-entered my mind at 65 for some mysterious reason and I am really loving it!
Yeah....
Maybe it's because
me too 🙂
its your subconscious saying ur an a hole for not listeining and reminding you what good music is lol
Did the wedding singer movie bring u back?😂
63 here
Oh how I long for such fresh sounds and melodies in this grey era, October 2024. Nothing sounded quite like this, and then the next week another 80's band came up with something completely new, and thus it went on week after week, new new NEW. Creativity, where art thou now?
Going through really difficult times right now and the Thompson Twins are my comfort music. So grateful I have easy access to these videos. 💕🙏
❤
Same
Same 😢
❤️💖💓🙏💕💓
Stay strong, your difficult time will eventually pass.
Long live the 80' S music it will outlive them all! The 80's were the best 10 years on earth!!
I'm watching this at 53 and despite the years, despite the pain, despite the neverending scramble of life I'm still that girl who listened to this song so long ago bopping out with her friends. I'm still f*cking ME!
Ahh 84...The days of being in junior school and not a care in the world...simpler, happier times....
I have a sister. She took me to Purdue University. Clowes hall. Berlin opened. Before Take my Breath Away. It was just a bit lewd. Still I will never ever forget the BEST Twins EVER.
This songs still ligit
I was only 7 years old in 1.983, but I'll remember this people playing that on the TV. " HOLD ME NOW...". Amazing music. Greetings from BARCELONA.
My youth, my innocence, and my love for life stuck with me.
I lived through the 80s with my sisters. What a great time! Driving around town with the top down listening to great music. Both sisters are gone and I just lost my dad. Now, the music that I love, makes me cry. 😢
I've seen the psychedelic furs twice in the past 5 years!!!!! LOVE their music and they sound amazing!!!!!!
Why VEVO RESTART the republication of every video of Thompaon Twins???? with only few views???? Where did the millions of views go??? ..No one fanatics of Thompson Twins did you notice this? SHAME!!!
Dlatego ze jesteśmy dla nich zwykłym śmieciem. Pieniądze, nic poza tym.
Listening to this classic is like going back to that beautiful past of high school, parties, fashion, fleeting courtships, etc.
I was into hard rock mostly in 80s but this song was always awesome.
Hard to believe TT unleashed this wonder hit 4 decades ago. These British popsters told music fans to " Hold Me Now". Music fans still do even in this day and age!
An absolute timeless classic
I would give anything to swap childhoods with my father he always said the 80s were the best and it took me 31 years to believe him !
I was 8 or 9 years old when this came out. The instant I hear the intro, I'm taken right back to 1984. What a great time! ❤
Yo tenía 11😢❤
So figure out to make a dent life for yourself. The Boomers were the first generation to hv a real childhood. Unfortunately most of us had disrespectful parents.
I was 10, where did all the hope we had go? How do we get it back? I am convinced it is in these 80's songs somewhere. Only free spirits can find it though, hope yours still is, mine is!
Absolutely very lutely
Of innocence, excitement and beauty
here in 2024 was here in the 80s - THE BEST TIME EVER FOR MUSIC!
78 and still love that song 4:44
Born in 1995 and this song is one of the greatest of all time
Tears of gratitude and joy roll down my face as I reflect on the great memories that are attached to this timeless song. I was 14 in 1984 and 53 today. Great times back then. Damn it was so freakin awesome to be a teen in the 80's.
The Wonder Years - what a great time to be alive!
"Both of us searching for some perfect world we know we'll never find" that hits hard 😢😢😢
How can you not love the Thompson Twins?!?
Her big giant hat bill is so out there! I remember watching this release on MTV, back when they were a thing.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
i dont they are trashy music
The soulless do.
Born in 84. By the time i hit primary school in 88 this was my favourite song thanks to my dad. Absolutely timeless.
It's sad but hearing this song on the radio, not watching this video is why I thought it could be a number one song. Yeah that's the way I use to think.
