@@janethill1668 They brought back a lukewarm version of it. Relying on Phils drums & the synth, etc. Theres one person, who will remain nameless, that appears to have overdosed on 80s music & pop culture. Even the name is str8 out of the 80s. Some of them are good, tho. The ones that sound like they were plucked out of the 80s & brought to this current time. The familiarity can be so strong that I feel like I **am** listening to a song from back in the 80s. Christine & The Queens 'Girlfriend' is one that does a great job of capturing that sound/vibe. I automatically, musically time travel with that one whether I want to or not. 😁✌

Met Dr Robert when he came into the music shop I was working in in the early 2000s. Needed his guitar fixed for an acoustic solo gig he was doing in town that night so we took care of the guitar for him and he put us on the guest list. He was a pretty humble but friendly and charismatic chap which made me happy since I bought this single when it came out and it's always when your musical heroes turn out to be nice folk.

Nina I was 14 when this was out and extremely unhappy at school defiantly WORST DAYS for me but I bought this record music was my escape

Great track 1986 good times full of fun happy days

I love playing this song on a sunny day in California in my black Tacoma with my black Saint Laurent sunglasses 😎 I feel like a cool 22 year old girl 🤪

Things were much simpler back then it seems.. Such a great song!

This is a culmination of his influences... soul.. elvis.. buddy holly..motown.. gone now.. luckily its a time capsule for us to enjoy.

We saw these supporting level 42 in cardiff in september 2018.........still brilliant even now!!

Music doesn't evoke pure happiness like this anymore. This is just happy in a song.

What a great tune,and what a stylish performance

Clearly, Nick Rhodes was an inspiration. One of my fav songs from the BEST decade of music!

The decade of the saxophone - such a sultry sound and awesome song

Try Junior Walker and the all Stars from the 60/70s. What does it take (to win your love for me). Sexiest sax ever.

catmel1954 Good call. I would also look up Maceo Parker. He’s still around but super old but still super funky. He was James Brown’s saxophone player and he also player along side Prince for a tour or two. I love him and I love the Saxophone 🎷

Yes, those saxophones popped up everywhere in the eighties. A song didn’t feel complete until you heard the horns blow.

Blow monkeys is great.

King of swag....oh yes!!! Fabulous!!❤

Funk and groove. Romance and style. Miss my 80’s. Class of 88

I am now stuck in the middle of Coronavirus lockdown, yet still this song can make me happy. I was born in '75, so saw every minute of the 80's as a kid. They were the best years ❤

I feel like society and music peaked in the 80s

Best start to a pop song ever...

The 80's had the happiest songs ever, full of joy! I'm living that decade through music!

OMG !! I was 16 and living in London at the time with my family (dad's job as a diplomat) when this song was released. Now do the math, how many years have passed. Back in my country, Peru, and telling my 20-24 year old children about those fabulous years. LOVE this song, keep on playing it over and over :)

I am digging this scene in June 2020 !!!! Love it 😍
