    I think we miss these times not only because of nostalgia, but because they were not so fast, so rushed, so crowded, so complicated. Yes, life can be a bitch and we all have problems, but now it’s like you live your life like an ant and people are in a hurry all the time. Information comes at the speed of light, stress comes with the sound of a BLING on your cellphone and everybody is looking for digital entertainment, rather than interacting with someone. We kept imagining the future in the 80’s and 90’s. Well, guess what? The future is here and it looks grim as shit.

    Hi I am now
    approaching 70 so seen many decades ,the 60,s started it all and as a Brit as a kid embraced it ,the 70,s better still but honestly the 80,s were something else , a portal to our future with innocence ,an enjoyment of new music and technology ! Lived in the US then and totally loved it ,going to the mall and sitting in the arcade , no phones ,no apps and constant social media ! We had the best of all worlds ,the music was great , fashion simple and not expensive to most of us and I felt totally free and life was amazing ! Alas the future is even worse than we thought back then , we thought it would be fun but hell as a kid now alas it is like going back to 1935 , EVIL is on the rise again ,that,s not in the spirit of the 80,s ,maybe that sensation will arise again !

    I don't care how old I am now or how old in the future I reach. Part of me will always be a kid stuck in the 80s. No place I would rather be and would do anything to go back to that place again. This song/video is amazing but I felt both ecstatic/depressed at the same time. Youth really is wasted on the young. Any kids/teenagers reading this savour every second of your youth whilst you can. Don't keep looking to the future but enjoy the now. Because when your youth is over it is never coming back.

    My friend, I have seen almost everything that you have enriched the wonderful music of Midnight. I'm 45 years old and with what is happening on our planet I am nostalgic for that decade when I was a child. I wish I could be transported to that decade. I shared the bare minimum of my thoughts because they would all be a book. Greetings from Greece.

    I’ve decided the reason millennial nostalgia hits so hard is because we were the last generation to come of age without the internet… we all had powerful shared experiences in terms of pop culture, cutting edge technology… without actually being networked together so we could each discover things on our own… and here we are 30 years later all looking back on the same collective childhood.

    The attachment to the 80's is one of the coolest things you get out of surfing music through RUclips. I came into the 80's as a 17 year old...to wrap up your high school years early in the decade only to then flow into some absurdly crazy and fun college days while the decade was in full swing was most fortunate. The Midnight captures the vibe of the time so well that anytime it is combined with 80's based content it just works!!

    This song and video is just so powerful. I was born in 86 in Brooklyn, NY. The only thing that kept me off the streets and out of gang violence was television, movies and video games. These things were more than just entertainment to me, they were doorways into worlds that seemed so much brighter than what was outside my window. I might not be alive today if it weren't for the amazing content that was produced in the 80's which I was lucky enough to have experienced as a child, even if I technically grew up in the 90's. People can say whatever they want about the 80's not being as great as people try to remember them being, but they'll never understand how euphoric and life altering these things were for a child who could have easily went down a terrible path.

    That time is so loved not because of what we had back then, but because we didn’t have what we have now. Widespread internet access, multinational corporations with as much power, mobile phones, social media, persistent terrorism threat, corrupt politics, and media coverage of every little disaster around the world. The world was so much simpler, so much more pure and carefree. I didn’t even exist back then and I can still sense that inevitable nostalgic pang people approaching middle age feel whenever a video like this makes an appearance. It’s incredible.

I wish I could travel back in a time machine. I'd go back in a Heartbeat. Everybody seems so much more happy and hopeful.
