As a 50 year old man, this kinda brings a tear to my eye. Because I squandered so many opportunites. Along with dumb decisions in the name of fun.
The saddest part is friends you didn't know you would see for the last time. And places. people, events, and experiences you had. Along with the pure enjoyment of just life in general.
As I listen to this song and write this, I'm thinking of the good times and bad. Knowing I will never ever experience those again. Knowing the last time I truly enjoyed life was in the 90s, even tho this timeless song is from the 80s.
So as I'm completely tear up, I hope you enjoy the short time we have left.

When I hear 80s songs like this one, I have flashbacks to when I was a small child going places with my mother, listening to the radio in her blue Oldsmobile. I had no bills to pay, no deadlines to meet, no mouths to feed, etc. Many people can't say the same thing, but I had a wonderful childhood. Those memories will never fade.

this brings a "tear" to my eye, I was 25 in 1980, still lived with my parents, had a hassle free job in the next town, It all seems so far away now doesn,t it? no "mobile phones", no "social media", no problems, everyone knew everyone in your village, no real crime to speak of, i,de come home from work, have my tea, and pop down the local for a game of pool and a pint with my friends without a care in the world! hear "wonderful tunes "like this all night,and everyone was happy!
then walk home "safe in the knowledge that even though it was dark, no one would mug me for want of a five pound note!
being 68 and retired now has it,s advantages, I know how "magical those days were like so many of us,we definatly saw the best of britain,
so different to today! this is why this song brings a tear not of sadness but remembering all those wonderful years of carefreeness and joy,
no,one can take those days away from us born in the 50,s I ,like so many of us will stay" forever young" if only in our dreams,:face-red-heart-shape:XXX

The vocals on this song are absolutely flawless. He doesn't even use vibrato. Just a clear, clean voice reaching higher and higher effortlessly. The whole album is a masterpiece, right up there with Upstairs at Eric's as one of the very best synth pop albums. I was maybe 12 when I first listened to it and it still gives me chills.
