I used to also dye it red like his too. Bleaching my hair white like Aimee's didn't come until I was grown because my mother wouldn't let me 😄

    The songs of the 80s always had a positive vibe. I was growing up in the early eighties and at the time you don't realize how great these songs are until you get older and you look back on them. I guess in retrospect you develop a newfound love for them.

  • @rebelheartcr8599
    @rebelheartcr8599 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    If I'm not mistaken the lead singer, Tom Bailey, wrote this song after an argument he had with Alannah Currie, the female band member who plays the percussions and the marimba. They were a couple. They later got married and in the late 80s/early 90s they moved to New Zealand, where Alannah is originally from. However, in the early 2000's they got divorced. This band has many other great songs and what I think it's really interesting in their sound is the instruments they incorporate such as the marimba, certain types of percussions accompanying the typical 80's pop/new wave sound.

    This song makes me cry sometimes. I think it's the nostalgia, partly, but probably also has some old homesickness memories attached to it. I remember a road trip with my dad and my sister and I were missing our mom horribly and we were so young. I'm pretty sure we both started crying in the backseat because this song was playing and it made us miss our mom. But my dad would have this song playing regularly on one of his burned CDs while we were driving around in his truck too. This and "Doctor, Doctor" are my favorites. I'm 26 now and I'm grateful that I was exposed to such great music at a young age, and I'm still discovering more.

    One of my favorite bands, 80's or everwise - got to see Tom Bailey perform as part of the "Rewind" tour in 2014, in NYC - first time he'd performed Thompson Twins songs live since sometime around 1990. Utterly magical night.

    Awesome song! This whole album was fantastic. "Doctor, Doctor" and "You Take Me Up" were other big hits. "Love On Your Side" and "Lies" from the previous album, and "Lay Your Hands on Me" and "King for a Day" from the follow up album were also great songs. One of the best concerts I ever saw too. Saw them on this tour at Merriweather Post Pavilion outside Baltimore. It's a beautiful outdoor pavilion and the second they started playing everyone was on their feet dancing and no one sat down the whole show. Thanks!
    Peace from SF
