Música boa faz bem para a alma suavisa o fardo do dia-a-dia - BRASIL.

In the ’80s summers were endless. Time didn’t exist. Friends were the most important things, not iPhones. The girls were wonderful. The parties were awesome. Life had some optimistic aura. Love was felt so deep, everyone had time for me, we had everything we need to be happy, every kiss was larger than anything today, every dream was to come true, we were so imperfect but that made us just perfect, everything we felt was pure and deep, everything we were doing was innocent. And all those faces of my friend with those smiles....priceless. Clubs were awesome, music cut deeper into our hearts than anything today. We were innocent creatures who just wanted to give love, to be loved, to have good friends, and a lot of fun with them. Some of them are not with us anymore. I am sure that they waiting for me somewhere up there......and I am sure that when we meet again that we will be 17 again and that we will smile again, dance again, play guitar, that we will tell old stories again....ohh often I can't wait. In my adult life, I have responsibly done everything that was expected. I worked hard, paid my bills, find a great partner, traveled, suffered at my work, saved, sacrificed, invested, was kind, honest, responsible, and maintained health and friendships but no matter what I do and how hard I tried nothing, nothing ever come even close to the beauty of those years, to that innocence, to that intensity, to that first kiss. Nothing that I can expect in the rest of my life will ever come close to it. From now on it will be one problem after another, with deteriorating health and decay. Our Father, who art in heaven…if you think that I carried my cross long enough….take me back to that place and time of the 80s and just leave me there. That is my place for eternal life. And please keep my batteries in the Walkman always full.

As a teen in 80’s, music, beer and girls were my life! All my friends were massive music fans (we all shared around C90 cassettes and made sure everyone knew about every band or gig)! We went to the pub VERY weekend and spent every penny we had on travelling to gigs or just talking music and drinking!!! 🥰🥰🥰

It was the song "I´m so excited" by the Pointer Sisters.

I searched for this video for decades, even before YT. My grandmother and I used to watch it together on a black-and-white television on the island of Sardinia. Though I knew it was OMD, all I remembered was a car driving throughout the clip. I finally found it. My father is now old. My grandmother and all my immediate family is now gone. All I have is this song and the few others we used to share together. “My feelings still remain…” along with an eternal void. This song captures it well.

This song is a total classic. Sounds so good now as it did in the 80s.

I took a trip to London the year this came out, I was all alone for days traveling, went into a record store and this was playing. I immediately asked what it was and bought it as a 12 inch 45.

I FEEL THE SAME FOR THIS SONG 🎵 ... MY ADOLESCENCE, THE FIRST LOVERS, I UNDERSTAND DEAR JOHN WELL .. HOW MUCH TIME HAS PASSED ... INCREDIBLE ... GREETINGS FROM ITALY ✋🇮🇹✋

You will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory Hold the ones you love and forgive them always

This song is just a masterclass.,, Hearing this has transported me straight back to the 80's... 👌👌 What time to have grown up in your teens, I'm building a time machine, and I'm off back to the 80's, who's coming? 👍😎

Not just a seminal track but a true masterpiece, due to the fact it harmoniously marries melody, lyricism and evocative expression 💯

Same here, I'll be 53 in August (2022) and it brings back memories of my days in Heolddu Comprehensive school, Bargoed, Wales. My dad was very much alive, he died in 1991. My grandmother was still alive. Funny how music takes you back, trouble is, those memories creep out of the corner of your eye and roll down your cheek, the loss of my youth, my young care free days. Good to look back on though.

Front man and lead singer of OMD Andy Mc Cluskey didn't rate this track thought it was "soppy" hence it was sung by Paul Humphreys!

i like this song and video to it, no girls in questionable clothing, no throwing money around, no curse words or f the world, just clean and smooth camera shots with an old school VW roadster. And to be honest this video deserves an award for the camera shots.

Another brilliant and original eighties band. One of many.

Most beautifully melancholic song of the 80s. I'm so jealous of the songwriting and orchestration.

When I first heard Souvenir I was shocked, I couldn't believe that it was possible to write such a beautiful, touching and magnificent song. Souvenir made a huge impact on me. After that I started listening to other songs of OMD and became a big fan of them, but Souvenir always has a special place in my heart

Listening to this stops me dead in my tracks and immediately catapults me back to my teenage youth of first loves, zero worries, even less responsibilities and a happier life. I can remember spending my first summer in the USA as a 18 year old Brit making love to the most gorgeous American girl to the entire OMD album. This song and anything else from their 1988 ‘best of omd’ album literally sends me into a temporary paralysis with happy nostalgic vibes. Thank god for music, talented artists and technology. Go forth and enjoy. Remembering CeAnn, Seattle, 1993. Best summer ever…

I remember this, it was first on the juke box on a Friday night. Great days when there was a pub on every corner belting out fantastic music. Now the pubs have gone and take aways have replaced them. Glad I got to have been around then

Absolutely beautiful, ahead of its time yet timeless, and quintessentially English.

Pura nostalgia!😊

Quite simply one of the best music masterpieces of all time. Sublime.
