    This is a Perfect Example of Why I Miss The 80's. The Originality, Uniqueness & the Creativity of the Music. I'm so glad I was a Part of the Greatest Music Decade Ever.

    2023 I am 55 and walking through memories of great bands and music in my life. Real Life "Heartland " album was special even by 80's uber creative and eclectic standards. This band was different among many different bands. I get why so many of the generations after us gravitate to "Our" music..it was fearless and free of so many of the tethers that confine so much of the music that has come after. It is always great to come back and listen to the "good stuff " besides the flood of memories it is simply fantastic music.

    Soon to be 42 and I can absolutely relate to a lot of the comments being posted.
    I remember jumping around like a frog in a fuckin sock to this one with my mates at the blue light disco trying to impress the girls lol. Had some of the best times of my life during my teenage years in the 80's, wish I could go back and do it all again and while I wasn't a big fan of the new wave/synthesizer stuff back then, this song was an exception.
    Thank you reallifeexperience for the upload.

    I had an amazing experience with this song one night in february '11. I woke up in the middle of the night around 2AM and started listening to this song on my iPod. I was half asleept-hat weird state of consciousness where you're aware of your surroundings but not quite in touch with reality....and as I heard the lyrics "there's a face before my eyes their closed but I can recognize the danger!" I became terrified because I actually thought there was someone there in the hallway.

    I was born in 87 and I got into 80's music big time by the time I was in 9th grade in 2002 so highschool and college memories include mostly 80's synthpop and new wave stuff. Some of my friends at work thought I was weird because I stuck to the 80's while they all hopped on the dubstep bandwagon. Still no regrets here! :D

    They where a great band to watch live in the Pubs. They used to play this near the end of the giggs. Perfectly describes the fans after good night out down the local. Between this song and Face to Face to hard to choose between them as my favorite. The day after the night before i'd find myself waking up to Send me an Angel and cranking up the stereo. Good old days :)

    I lay down to rest my head
    My soul to keep the night I dread
    It's no dream
    Slumber comes as darkness falls
    And shadows dance across my walls
    It's no dream
    Wake up
    Don't sleep
    My dreams become so real to me
    Wake up
    Don't sleep
    While the night is young
    I lay down to rest my head
    My soul to keep the night I dread
    It's no dream
    Slumber comes as darkness falls
    And shadows dance across my walls
    It's no dream
    I Wake up
    Don't sleep
    My dreams become so real to me
    I Wake up
    Don't sleep
    While the night is young
    Catch me I'm falling
    Down again
    I know it's a dream but just the same
    There's a face before my eyes are closed but I can recognize the danger
    Slumber comes as darkness falls
    And shadows dance across my walls
    It's no dream
    I Wake up
    Don't sleep
    My dreams become so real to me
    I wake up
    Don't sleep
    While the night is young
    Catch me I'm falling
    Down again
    I know it's a dream but just the same
    Catch me I'm falling, falling
    Ahhhhh Ahhhh
    Catch me I'm falling
    Down again
    I know it's a dream but just the same
    Catch me I'm falling
    Catch me I'm falling
    Catch me I'm falling
    I'm falling
    Catch me I'm falling
    I'm falling
    Catch me I'm falling
    I'm falling
    Catch me I'm falling
    I'm falling

    The beginning of Fluorescent clothing. I remember this. Anyone remember the fluorescent zinc cream you could buy just like the video clip. Persons at the beaches were smothered with fluorescent pink across noses and cheeks. I wonder if they got the idea from persons drinking in the clubs at dark after spending hours in the Australian sun where you couldn't wash the stuff off your face. Ahhh, the memories. This is awesome !! Thank you for this. love it.
