    I was 14 as well. The scene in Valley Girl when this song plays, Randy and Julie (and sidekicks) have taken some shots at each other’s styles, but there’s still much drawing them together naturally, and the scene frames their silhouettes talking and falling for each other anyway. It’s just a little inexpensive film, but got some parts so right that it’s magic.

    I agree, they should have been huge. I was a bouncer at a bunch of clubs around LA in the 80's. My very first night was a club that had The Plimsouls playing that night. I still remember them fondly because of that. Another band that should have been bigger than they were was "X". I bounced for quite a few of their shows, but then they just kinda disappeared. Glad to see them back together and touring again.

    A meaning of this song came to me today ... "A million miles away" means the lead singer is wrestling, not always successfully, with depression and alienation. "Holding on to the hands of the past, and you" ... he wants to reconnect with the friends that make up "the crazy world." He's "drifting to a different place ... falling off the edge" in that more often than not, he's been imagining the world to be, if not better without him in it, not appreciably worse either. He's fighting against this feeling with everything in him, but he can't see any compelling reason keeping him here. At first, the line "And there's nothing left to bring me back today" is a quiet resignation; thirty seconds before the end, however, the weight of realization slams into him. His previously flat tone becomes fearful and desperate as he pleads with God, the Universe, what have you, "Bring me back today!", knowing that if he's not brought back right that second, he never will be. Heavy, heavy stuff ... But a damn good piece of music.

    Seeing that "Flashdance" billboard at the beginning of the video totally reminded me of 1983. In the fall of '83, I was a senior in high school and had a '66 Mustang that had a Pioneer (or was it Alpine?) car stereo into along with Jensen Triaxial 6x9 speakers, (remember those! ) and I would put the old Maxell XLII in (that I made from a record on my big brother's Nakamichi tape deck) and cranked this song up along with the rest of the soundtrack from "Valley Girl". Then "Repo Man" came out and I ended up cranking the shit out of that soundtrack too!
