I saw John Waite in concert last night. I didn't expect too much...but was totally blown away. He sounded great, looked in shape at 71, had great stage presence, was funny, and deeply reflective at times. If you get a chance to see him---you absolutely must! He also did a fantastic version of "Whole Lotta Love"...but this song seems to embody how he is as a person. Very cool!
Nice to hear that... some of these performers/artists are preternatural. I saw Stevie Nicks live this June and she's also in her 70's and her voice sounded as strong as it did at 25. It's defies explanation! She's still a marvelous, brilliant performer. The experience was transcendental. I'm an 80's baby and there were lots of people even younger than I there! The 70's and 80's were a blessed time for music.
I wish someone would build a time machine & take me back to the 80s & LEAVE ME THERE FOREVER... 1982...I was 13 yrs old & in 7th grade. I THOUGHT THIS WAS THE GREATEST SONG EVER!!! I can remember watching MTV (when MTV actually played music videos), just hear this song & watch the music video. In the summer of 1982 I saved my money from grass cutting & bought my first Sony Walkman and this cassette, I think I paid around $30.00 for both...I WAS SO HAPPY & PROUD OF MYSELF!!! I remember getting my Walkman & riding my bike all over my neighborhood. GREAT GREAT SONG...EVEN BETTER MEMORIES!!! Much love from Mobile Alabama
I was 16 yrs old in 10th grade and I would relive 84-90 over and over...as long as I could relive the rest of my life with the same woman when I was ready to finally grow up.
Great song! It takes me back in time warp too! Was teen-ager in 1983, too. Nostalgia. Good times remembered and bad times we kind of forget. But growing up on that time period had some pretty amazing stuff. Am grateful like a lot of 80s kids. Thank you, John Waite! God Bless all!
Yes I totally agree with you, some of the greatest memories of my life were from those days. I miss them now more than ever before I would go back in a heartbeat.
Don't forget we still had a lot of 50's (Elvis and doo-wop), on the radio and old jazz/swing in B&W movies on afternoon TV. It was all there to be heard, felt and appreciated.
Bad English came after his success in his solo career. Missing You and Change were both before Bad English. And, he also had minor success in The Baby's before his sole career.
This song still gives me chills, I was a pre teen! I'm nearly 48 years old the 80s, MTV it was all the BEST! I'm proud to be a part of the great era❤🎤🎶
If you are of the age when this song played on MTV, then when you hear it now, you must feel the nostalgia coursing thru you body right now. I sure do.
I remember. 51 years old. I remember the Greatness of MTV. People talk about what MTV has become. The thing is it was a product of its time. It could have never continued on just showing videos. It was lightning in a bottle. And then there were all the clones. Friday Night Videos, Night Flight, and others. Trying to explain to someone today who was born in the last 20 or 25 years what MTV was and what it meant to us is impossible. I’m just glad I was around to enjoy it. The 80’s was a great time to be a kid/teenager. It’s like trying to explain Saturday Morning Cartoons or Waiting for New Shows to premiere in the Fall. It was Magic and I miss it so much sometimes it hurts. It was really fun. I watched MTV for hours. Couldn’t wait for a “Premiere Video” or to see my favorites. Good Times.
I was a senior in high school when this song came out,God how I miss my youth,vision quest still one of my favorite movies,bring back better times,bring back the 80's,no internet,no cell phones,only thing good about them is we can relive some of our youth by the push of a button
Scott Fohr Senior High great timing 👍 I was 8 ! I missed the 80’s really as was too young to fully appreciate ....aged 13 by 1987 i could hear the echoes of this great era, then came 90’s....music began to die 👎🏻....where does the time go? Missing my youth and freedom. Today I turn 46 and sat in isolation (Pandemic 2020) ...... nice 👌
@@Resistculturaldecline That comment was so good that it hurt. I feel sorry for the following generations that have somehow lost the ability to communicate.
Almost four decades of delightful music with pure vocals. From Bad English, The Baby's and solo, He has left his mark and can be considered a legend in my opinion. Change will forever be one of my ALL TIME favorites as a 80's teen!
Loved this song when it came out in ‘82. Had completely forgotten about it until I heard it today on XM Radio. Made me tear-up as well. We had the absolute best music growing up in the 70’s and 80’s. CLASS OF 1985! 🙌
@@jg769Yes 💯 I always thought that "Don't Change" was INX'S Best tune. I met all if them in the summer of '88, at thus outdoor concert theater outside Chicago, while staying with my mom during my summer college breaks from UCLA ad a theater student working Backstage Hospitality. They were all Cool as Hell. Mike (RIP) Kurt, Gary, Jon, Andrew🎶🎵🩵💙👏💪😎,
Anyone else think of Vision Quest when they hear this? I think every high school wrestler after 1985 had that soundtrack. Running stairs to Lunatic Fringe.
Ahhh Yes 💯 AGREED. Class of '84 here & it was an Amazing/Magical time to be alive. No Social Media Crap, just people gaving a good time & talking to one another & NIT Constantly looking fown at the all important Smart Ohobes That Literally RULE our Lives.
I had some great times in the 80's. Class of 87 here. Back when MTV played music videos. Working at Roses department store in 80's. The full time workers would have TV on news and we the teenagers came in at 5pm, we would change to MTV.
This brings back memories of being the last of a LOT of kids and subsequently the last child remaining living at my parent's house, and finally getting cable TV in my town with this video reminding me of being so young, naive (I had no idea what the lines on the mirror were back then), and mesmerized by the new channel called MTV when this came out in 1982 when I was still a prepubescent. Nostalgia!
My ❤ heart breaks for the 👧 girl in this video. You can see how the pursuit of wealth, fame, and fortune has destroyed her soul and left her empty inside, to the point of being suicidal. How easily and quickly we can lose perspective about what matters most in life. I appreciate the strong moral message in this song and John and Patty knock it out of the park with their vocal performances. An underrated classic and a true hidden 💎 gem! This song should of been a massive hit!
shawn I was overwhelmed by the quality of this song first time I heard it .....about 82 ...I watched MTV constantly back then (it was ALWAYS on in the background) and I waited to hear this song ....unfortunately, mtv did not push it and it was lost after a few weeks of occasional play ......never will why it was NOT a bigger hit
We didn't have droid/iPhones, laptops, iPads. We had MTV and basic cable and it was enough. My youth was this music and all outdoors on my bike. What a time to be alive and still in some way believe in magic. To the kids of today, I am sorry you didn't get the opportunity to live like that.
Yes 💯 No Social Media Crap or Cell phones & we would actually talk to one another, Without constantly looking down at guess what... Our Cell phones that Literally Rule Our Lives🎶🎵🩵💙👏💪😎
This song was perfectly used in Vision Quest! Great movie and what a killer rock track by a solo John Waite. Reminds me of HS in the 1980’s!! Great memories. Thanx John. You da man!!

OMG!! Best part of my day; hearing from John Waite!! 💘 🎶 😍 🎼🇬🇧 Best birthday gift an MTV Baby like myself.could ask for!! My bday is in two days, thanks so much for reaching out John & will definitely try to keep in touch!! "Missing You" & " Change" are MY ABSOLUTE FAVES by you!!! 🎸 🇬🇧 💃 😍 🎶 🎤 📷 🎥
I watched John's biopic documentary " the Hard Way" ,which chronicals his entire career I gotta say I was impressed with the film But I was really inspired by Johns perspective and sorta anti-hero- approach to Hollywood ,art,and life,itself and i think John is one of the greatest and most unique voices of the 80s and I wish him the best
Over 40 years later It was my favorite song then, it is my favorite now, Thank you John for the best song I have every heard and no matter what I am doing when it comes on everyone has to be quiet so I can hear it
Thank Neil Giraldo. John sang but Neil produced it and played the excellent guitar. Neil married Pat Benatar. Her music had that same gripping intensity.
Very catchy tune! These are what you call real songs from real times in the 80s everybody. Thank you John Wait for part of fabulous times of music then!!
John is a genuine treasure!! The kind of bread they don't make anymore. Fantastic songwriter, singer, musician, arranger, frontman. May it be with The Babys, Bad English or Solo. Very few songwriters/artists make me pay that much attention to the lyrics as John does. There are a lot of lines in a lot of songs that take my breath away... I have a soft spot for "In Dreams": "....Sunshine knocking on my window Couldn't wake me from this dream (we dream) 'Cause baby anywhere the wind blows I will follow you It seems That in my life I still believe in dreams...." 😉
Good Tune 😎 👍 I Knew This In 1985 When I Listened To Sound Track LP " Vision Quest "😁 Of Course, I Liked It Now😎 Thanks To Upload 😄 Thank You So Much 🙇
I woke up with this song taking up most of my brain. I don’t think I’ve thought of it in decades. 80s would’ve been perfect… If we weren’t worried about nuclear war every day.
Just saw him last week in concert, opening up for Styx and Foreigner. I'm 54 and missed out on a lot of shows when I was a teen. They all rocked it out last week and sounded amazing...I loved growing up in the 80's!

58 years old, and I'm still listening, and I wish I could go back to the 80s for just one day, please 🙏
I'm 59 and loved the '80s but it is time to move on. We take the memories as we continue walking forward.
I’ll never move on🥺😂
Great times!
Yup here never getting this ever again sadly
Me too ❤
I'm 56 and all I can say is "WE HAD IT ALL IN THE 80's."
of course is my love
We truly did! I miss it everyday!

I'm 52 and I agree! Still love this song and his other one Missing You!!🥰🤗🎤🎶🎵💃

I’m seeing him in August and I’ve been on cloud 9 since I bought my tickets today! That voice is amazing! And he’s such a great story teller.
I’m seeing him in 2 days. So glad to hear he’s still awesome. Can’t wait!! Waite.
Awesome to hear that a legend from the 70/80s can still bring it!

I worked at the movie theater when vision Quest cane out and Breakfast Club
@@LombardiGolfOMG me too! I worked in the box office fun times
I wish someone would build a time machine & take me back to the 80s & LEAVE ME THERE FOREVER...
1982...I was 13 yrs old & in 7th grade.
I THOUGHT THIS WAS THE GREATEST SONG EVER!!!
I can remember watching MTV (when MTV actually played music videos), just hear this song & watch the music video.
In the summer of 1982 I saved my money from grass cutting & bought my first Sony Walkman and this cassette, I think I paid around $30.00 for both...I WAS SO HAPPY & PROUD OF MYSELF!!!
I remember getting my Walkman & riding my bike all over my neighborhood.
GREAT GREAT SONG...EVEN BETTER MEMORIES!!!
Much love from Mobile Alabama
I bought my Sony Walkman for $50 and would listen to this cassette while walking around Pittsburgh in 84. Great memories.
I was 16 yrs old in 10th grade and I would relive 84-90 over and over...as long as I could relive the rest of my life with the same woman when I was ready to finally grow up.
Grateful to you for your time story.
I was 23 and listening to John Waite and Bryan Adams and 38 special and am still listening to the same music
I was 13 and in 7th grade as well in 1982.
Love this song! Takes me back to 1983 when I was 16 and life was so simple and fun. 80’s we’re truly a magical time to grow up ❤️
I turned 18 on graduation day in 1983! I feel ya!!!!
Great song! It takes me back in time warp too! Was teen-ager in 1983, too. Nostalgia. Good times remembered and bad times we kind of forget. But growing up on that time period had some pretty amazing stuff. Am grateful like a lot of 80s kids. Thank you, John Waite! God Bless all!

Yes 💯 Class of '84 here & in '83 I was 17 in my Senior Year getting ready to graduate, an Amazing/Magical Time to be Alive🎶🎵🩵💙👏💪😎
I am 63 & transitioning from the 60’s , 70’s, into the 80’s was the best 3 decades for rock & roll.
Don't forget we still had a lot of 50's (Elvis and doo-wop), on the radio and old jazz/swing in B&W movies on afternoon TV.
It was all there to be heard, felt and appreciated.
I’d live the 70’s and 80’s all over again. I’m 58 and those were by far the best years of my life. I would love them all over again I miss it.
Man, this guy was under-rated. He should have been so much bigger.
He was actually the lead singer of bad english prior to his solo career.
Bad English came after his success in his solo career. Missing You and Change were both before Bad English. And, he also had minor success in The Baby's before his sole career.
He was pretty big on MTV. Maybe not as big a he should have been but his songs were in heavy rotation
@@paulheinmiller2294 I wouldn't call The Baby's a "minor success" They had quite a few hits. Pick up their "Anthology" album and give it a listen.
Way better than Bon Jovi IMO
This song still gives me chills, I was a pre teen! I'm nearly 48 years old the 80s, MTV it was all the BEST! I'm proud to be a part of the great era❤🎤🎶
It was the best! I miss it everyday!
we grew up in a time where MTV actually played music videos all day haha
When music made sense with meaning..... Our Good ole day's....😮😮😮😢
I’m pretty much convinced the 80s was the best decade in history for music. I doubt it’ll reach that level again.
One of the most underrated songs ever this song could be 10 minutes longer
can't listen once gotta listen to it 5 times
@@mfuji02True....
Yes 💯 only bad thang Bout yhis tune is that uts Not Long Enough🎶🎵🩵💙👏💪😎
If you are of the age when this song played on MTV, then when you hear it now, you must feel the nostalgia coursing thru you body right now. I sure do.
I like your comment. Check out "The Producers" The song is "She Sheila". There was great music from that era that was forgotten.
@Michael Wolff 88 here. I fell down an 80's wormhole in 2020. If I'm not out in January, send a search party.

the late 60s were not to bad either!
🎯😃👍
The best for Pop too.
70s Fqn A!!!!!? total freedom !!!!!!!! 🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I would say the best for music, period.

Oh yeah and I love these songs
Definitely, I loved his video!!!!❤

Great lead singer of the Babys...fyi
He is such a class act!! Love all his albums...completely underrated.

Wonderful memories. They sure were great times!

I agree with you babe. 😘😘😘
GLO LUVS MUSIC 😘😘😘😘
Kimi T This is a great 80’s song . And I think your gorgeous.
What an awesome song. To me it's my favorite from John Waite.
Not missing you??
I love this song, but at the same time it fills me with an overwhelming sense of melancholy.
I’m with you on that. It almost puts you back in the day too well, if that makes sense.
For sure. It makes me want to visit a time and place that, sadly, no longer exists.
For most of us, life is mostly a mixed bag of shake, stems, and seeds.
Time may change yet, memories are a different story altogether.....😮
60 years old, and watching/listening to this hits me right in the gut. Lived the 80's, what a time to be alive. :-)
The 80's was arguably the best era ever for all music!
Underrated song. It didn’t get promoted like a lot of other artists in the 80’s.
Back when Mtv actually played good music. 🎶🎶
John Waite is a killer vocalist. His work with The Babies and solo career is brilliant
The Babys
@@hienvu1714 autospell .. didn’t notice
Hadn't heard this song in decades. Somehow stumbled upon it and forgot how much I like it and the video when I was younger.
Almost four decades of delightful music with pure vocals. From Bad English, The Baby's and solo, He has left his mark and can be considered a legend in my opinion. Change will forever be one of my ALL TIME favorites as a 80's teen!
Well said
who isnt a legend these days?
i was 15 years old in 1983. this video was played in heavy rotation. now today in 2022 i still cry when i hear this song. CLASS OF 1986!!
Loved this song when it came out in ‘82. Had completely forgotten about it until I heard it today on XM Radio. Made me tear-up as well. We had the absolute best music growing up in the 70’s and 80’s. CLASS OF 1985! 🙌
Ah mate I wasn't even born yet shit we are all old eh
Class of 86 here, too. This song takes me back. Same with “Don’t Change” by INXS.

Anyone else think of Vision Quest when they hear this? I think every high school wrestler after 1985 had that soundtrack. Running stairs to Lunatic Fringe.
The peg board scene...GREAT movie. Awesome soundtrack.
Never saw the movie, but had the cassette, likely snagged for a penny off Columbia House or BMG.

I tell people it's an 80s thing you wouldn't understand if you weren't there.
Yes I agree with you, there was a certain feel about living back then, and you wouldn't understand unless you lived through it.
right on! It was a magical time to be alive!

Over 40 years later It was my favorite song then, it is my favorite now, Thank you John for the best song I have every heard and no matter what I am doing when it comes on everyone has to be quiet so I can hear it
I like the fact that I still know all of words to this and others! ty
Ikr I can’t remember my dogs name most days yet the words to the songs remain😊
Absolute chills from this song! Best of the best times!!!!
Another song that reminds me why...I LOVE THE 80'S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This song is brilliant. Lyrically and musically.
Thank Neil Giraldo. John sang but Neil produced it and played the excellent guitar. Neil married Pat Benatar. Her music had that same gripping intensity.
The 80's were the best times of my life. I give anything to go back again.
George Kendrick- ME TOO!!!
Such an excellent song, the 80s were absolutely the best , crank it up
A video within a video with meaning.... Love those day's...
One of the best early videos on MTV. Really well directed and told a story,, guy knew what he was doing.
One of the greatest coming of age movies from the 80’s and this soundtrack is just flat out great from top to bottom played it on cassette non stop !
Still here...barely. 2024. Vision Quest had me in 85.
My God rediscovered this Song after soo long!! Gives me chills!
a VERY underrated 80's song.❤
John Waite is completely underrated
Love John Waites voice, still listening to John and the Babys in 2023
Just saw him a couple of weeks ago. Still awesome
This was a regular for at least a year on the then-new MTV. I remember it never became a huge hit, but was still well-known. Loved finding it again! 😊
This right here is one fine song to workout with. Never fails to pump me up for any exercise absolutely love it.
Very catchy tune! These are what you call real songs from real times in the 80s everybody. Thank you John Wait for part of fabulous times of music then!!
Still listening March 2020

@@candicebrown8259 👍 song and a 👍 🎥 too!
@@louismatassa9105 it sure is. Made my whole day 🙂
You didn’t know it then but those were the best times in your life ❤
John is a genuine treasure!! The kind of bread they don't make anymore. Fantastic songwriter, singer, musician, arranger, frontman.
May it be with The Babys, Bad English or Solo.
Very few songwriters/artists make me pay that much attention to the lyrics as John does. There are a lot of lines in a lot of songs that take my breath away...
I have a soft spot for "In Dreams":
"....Sunshine knocking on my window
Couldn't wake me from this dream (we dream)
'Cause baby anywhere the wind blows
I will follow you
It seems
That in my life
I still believe in dreams...."
😉
Good Tune 😎 👍 I Knew This In 1985 When I Listened To Sound Track LP " Vision Quest "😁 Of Course, I Liked It Now😎 Thanks To Upload 😄 Thank You So Much 🙇
I woke up with this song taking up most of my brain. I don’t think I’ve thought of it in decades.
80s would’ve been perfect… If we weren’t worried about nuclear war every day.
Just saw him last week in concert, opening up for Styx and Foreigner. I'm 54 and missed out on a lot of shows when I was a teen. They all rocked it out last week and sounded amazing...I loved growing up in the 80's!
John was preaching about "the beast" way back in '84!
56 years old just seen him in concert Saturday. Still sound good.
He must have played "Change" right ?
@Cureguy1 you play song i didn't know he sung.
In the 80's we did have it all, you know?
I was born in '92 , but damn, I want to build a time machine and go back in the 80s . Looks sooo good and the music was amazing 😍
It was SO amazing!! We even know it then! Actually we knew the 80s was the top and no decade would top it after that.
john waite one of the best vocalists ever, amazing
Agree! Just saw him last night!
I don't know how, but I had completely forgotten about this song AND video.....
The 80's were the best musically!
Wow. I forgot about this song…now it’s getting added to my 80’s playlist
I just did the same
VISION QUEST!!! Best hero movie of the 80’s
