@@trinikenshin You think that because you were young and idealistic back in the day so you saw the world as a place to discover and full of possibilities. Now, you're older and cynical so you see the world for what it is. But this earth has always been war and disease ravaged. You didn't really notice it before because you were young. But everyone gets older and their eyes open. You simply aged out of your optimism, that's all.
Takes me back to the 80’s working in Belgium and The Netherlands. Level 42 use to perform in Brussels. Happy times, only seems like yesterday. I’m 64 now, still with the same woman and I was back then.
Tengo 25 años y Lastimosamente no viví en esa época. Pero afortunadamente tengo mis padres que desde Niño me enseñaron este género y hasta el momento seguimos compartiendo esta excelente música!
Level 42 at its peak. The magic of the 80s is slowly coming to an end. The 90s are getting closer and closer. The tragedy is that at that point no one knew that the last great (and possibly the best) decade of music was coming to an end. That means that I and probably millions of others simply accepted the music as "standard" at the time, which it definitely wasn't. It was “art.”
Sorry but i don't agree 80s music was real sh.. compare to the music of the 70. But maybe people were young and have good memories but musically speaking not my cup of tea
@@alaindimelow8688 I don't even want to contradict that. I think we can agree that the music didn't get any better. And today we have a really big catastrophe!
Remember my dad had this music video recorded on video tape...I think I was 6. Spent years trying to track this song down. He passed away when I was 8. Music has the power to echo memories for a very long time.❤️

@@infinite_ammo For a '87 song the sound production is very well done. It does sound fresh, not new. Imo it sounds as if it's from the late 90s. If you listen to music released around the same time and similar genre you'll hear the difference/how 'clean' this track is. The use of below par reverb and or compression was unfortunately used on many a good song.
Why is it that once you start listening to these fire 80's hits, you end up binging on all 80's music for hours on RUclips? Nothing and I mean straight up nothing will ever dominate the music, culture and fads of the 80's! So blessed to have lived and experienced the enlightening 80's. This 57 year old will always be an 80's child!
Easy to answer your question, it's because the 80's was the culmination of musical talent for talents sake. If you weren't talented you got nowhere. The 80's were also however the beginning of the end, when groups and music actually became "product". Fabricated, manufactured sounds, by companies not musicians, with front people chosen not for their talent, but their looks... their selling power. Meanwhile, backstage, talent died...
Me, too. 56 and still digging what fascinated me in the 80s. I grew up behind the Iron Curtain, but many people could work in the West and bring vinyl records, and later CDs. So we had access to almost everything that mattered in the West. Also this cool music helped us survive the gray, hopeless times of communism. We had no idea that in two or three years it would be over and we´d be free.
What makes this song a masterpiece is the beautiful duet with King and Lindup! Most bands, even today, have just one lead singer. Level 42 had 2. Their voices are complimentary - beautiful.
Uma das melhores músicas da década de 1980, e ver Mark King cantar e estourar aquele baixo com todas aquelas linhas legais enquanto canta. Como outros aqui notaram, não é uma tarefa fácil. E ele consegue isso sem esforço. Lembro-me de quando isso foi um sucesso. O sol brilhava muito mais forte naquela época.

As I am approaching my own level 42 in less than a week, I have been listening to lots of Level 42. Definitely an underrated band, for some reason they are rarely mentioned among the great synthpop/new wave bands of their era.
Minha música favorita da banda, descobri eles em 2016 e nunca cansei de escutá-los. Um groove perfeito junto com os arranjos e vocais impecáveis de Mark King e Mike Lindup. Aparentemente, poucos comentam sobre Lindup, mas para mim, que estudo música e sou fascinado pelo universo das teclas, ele se torna uma ótima referência e inspiração!
Simmmmmm,as músicas deles vc gosta de cara Essa eu nunca esqueci e passei anos buscando até que encontrei e descobri que outras que eu gostava eram deles Agora sei nome e quem canta Amoooo
a Banda é massa mesmo comecei a ouvi os caras em 2020 gostei Mark King um gênio cantando e Dedilhando o seu incrível baixo poucos fazem isso top anos 80 foda de mais jamais ano nenhum chegará aos pés dos anos 80
wow! It's cool! Level 42 was a British jazz-funk band formed in Reading, England, in 1979.

The band's third album, True Colours, was released in 1982 and was their breakthrough album. The album reached number 1 on the UK Albums Chart and spawned the hit singles "Love Games", "The Chinese Way", and "The Sun Goes Down (Living It Up)". Level 42 continued to release successful albums throughout the 1980s, including Standing in the Light (1983), World Machine (1985), and Running in the Family (1987). The band's music was also used in several films and television shows, including The Breakfast Club, The Royal Family, and Miami Vice. In 1994, Level 42 disbanded. The band reunited in 2005 and have continued to tour and record ever since. Level 42 is considered one of the most influential jazz-funk bands of all time. The band's complex rhythms and use of jazz elements helped to shape the sound of jazz-funk in the 1980s. Level 42's music continues to be enjoyed by fans around the world. The band's albums have sold over 30 million copies worldwide. Level 42 were influenced by a wide range of artists, including The Beatles, The Who, and Jimi Hendrix. The band was also influenced by jazz musicians, such as Miles Davis and John Coltrane. Level 42 is considered one of the most influential jazz-funk bands of all time.

my mom had a CD she always played in the car when I was in middle School and this was the first song it played. I didn't know what it said because at the time, I didn't know English but damn how did I love it, she and my little sister would sometimes sing along and I would just enjoy the ride. they were the easier times... I miss them, and I miss her.
OH MY GOD.... MARK KING & LEVEL 42!!!!!!! GLI ANNI 80 SONO RITORNATI.......ALLA GRANDE!!!!!!! "LESSONS IN LOVE", QUESTO BRANO DEI LEVEL 42 ANCORA "SPACCA" IN RADIO!!!!!!!
J'ai 52 ans et plein de souvenirs sur Rouen j'ai connu un super ami de Martinique qui m'a emmené partout quand j'avais 16 ans ont été 9 dans une Ranch rover j'étais dans le coffre bien à vous
Quien no desee escuchar esta bella música no está obligado. Lo que es para mi es genial. Aunque sea viejita es música muy buena y me trae momentos inolvidables y además no importa los años.
I was a young kid when this song came out... I'm a musician as a old ass adult... This music video really hugely massively underplays Mark King's outstanding bass playing, this guy is a triple A* top tier! The guitar is great, but MKs bass so driving!
@@maggiefollett636 Allot of people talk about underrated ore Overlooked!?? Nothing is overrated ore overlooked.. Maybe to the people who wright this!! Greetings from Amsterdam
The music of the current generation lacks simplicity. In a good understanding. Now there are a lot of distorted vocals, antics of performers, broken rhythms. It's not bad, but sometimes you miss music like this, carrying simplicity and a noble clean charge. Thank you, respect from Siberia
this record came out the summer of 86.. i was banged up in youth custody for driving on a ban.. luckily i had a radio and this song all ways made me smile.
I'm not proud, I was wrong and the truth is hard to take I felt sure we had enough but our love went overboard Lifeboat lies lost at sea I've been trying to reach your shore Waves of doubt keep drowning me All the dreams that we were building We never fulfilled them Could be better, should be better For lessons in love For restless eyes, egos burn and the mold is hard to break Now we've waded in too deep and love is overboard Heavy hearts token words all the hopes I ever had Fade like footprints in the sand All the homes that we were building We never lived in Could be better, should be better Lessons in love If we lose the time before us The future will ignore us We should use it, we could use it, yeah Lessons in love Lost without love Lessons in love When will you ever learn Lessons in love When there's nowhere left to turn Lessons in love Don't let your spirit burn Lessons in love I'll wait 'till you return All the dreams that we were building (Yeah, yeah, yeah) We never lived them We could lose it, we should use it (Lessons in love) Lessons in love All the homes that we were building We never lived in Could be better (Could be better) Should be better (Yeah, yeah) Lessons in love If we lose the time before us The future will ignore us We should use it, we could use it (Good God) Lessons in love
Siempre los asociaban con pat Metheny group Kenny g y UB40 en las radios , aunque creo que era algo antojadiso, ya que el sonido de level 42 era un vaivén entre el pop y el jazz
Soy un afortunado de haber vivido esta década de la música tan prodigiosa, con tan buenas voces y ritmos, esta canción me transporta, la disfruto y siempre será eterna. Recordando en 2021 desde Perú.
Muy buena música Mark es un genio que gloriosa época dorada los 80 lo mejor de eun antes y después y hoy sigue disponible para todos los ochenteros como nosotros que vivimos esa época
Yo también soy de Perú y en verdad ésta música transporta y relaja, yo la bailo frente a mi esposa e hijos no me interesa lo que piensen uno es libre de sentir la música eso no hace humanos.
Believe it or not, I fell in love with level42 at the age of 2! I used to wrap tape around my fingers and imitate playing bass a lot😊. I have been listening to level42 ever since I was two until now! I love it! Now I am 16 years old.
@@alexishernandezramirez4938 I am very sorry for you... I know how it feels.. 😢 I wish you lots of strength.. many blessings and a big hug to you, dear!!! 🌹💖🌹
I danced to this in the clubs. Born in 1969. Danced right through the 80"s in my teens. Now 55 this year. These modern times are horrible. Too much hate. At least back then you could get into a fight and nobody would try and kill you.
I lost someone close to me and a few days later I had a dream that I was switching on the radio. So I did when I woke up and this song was playing. “I’ll wait till you return” and “I’ve been trying to reach your shore” in the lyrics nearly broke me. I’ll love you forever S xxx
I remembered this song from when I was a kid in the 80s and thought it was called something else and tried combinations of what I thought the lyrics were on RUclips 🤣🤣🤣
This video clip is like a painting, and then again a movie. Wonderful shots.! Lvl 42 was 1 of my favorite bands in late 70s.! Their music was so diferent. Great songs.!!
Estuve durante años intentando buscar esta canción y su nombre y la banda que la canta. Esta canción me evoca al año 2008, cuando tenía 14 años y solía escuchar canciones de este tipo en un programa de radio de entonces. Y a pesar de no haber existido en la época en que salieron estos temas, posteriormente acompañaron mis momentos de enamoramiento de una chica que fue muy especial para mí. Esta canción acompañaba mi euforia, mis anhelos, mis deseos, mis frustraciones de sueños perdidos y sembrados, mis nostalgias y mis tristezas. Hoy con 26 años y gracias a esta música maravillosa, puedo rescatar fragmentos de viejas emociones de adolescentes y sembrarlas en mi adultez.
Excellente vidéo super! toutes ces chansons elles ne perdent pas de la puissance au niveau musical c'est formidable ! génial le monde les écoutera pour toujours jusqu'à la Fin des temps qu'en le veuille ou non écoutez c'est de la très bonne musique alors dansez ce soir ,c'est Moi qui offre cette série de chansons! Profitez bien de ce jour du 18 Avril 2024 ,car dans le monde il y a des guerres juste à côté de nos pays démocrates Priant pour la Paix et l'harmonie dans le monde nous avons tous besoin de sécurité et de vivre en bonne en entente! alors agissez c'est le moment de changer d'état d'esprit pour un monde meilleur!
Love the song, nearly 50 now, the lesson I've learnt over the years ,from when I first enjoyed level 42,is these songs heal the heart and mind ,these songs are like pure medicine ,make me feel happy and enriched in my heart ,thank you level 42.
Não nasci nos anos 80 mas queria ter vivido naquela época caramba só musicas top, as batidas, os sons dos instrumentos, as letras da gosto de escutar esse tipo de musica.
O melhor presente dessa vida que Deus me deu foi descobrir esses tesouros maravilhosos da década de 80, eu amo demais, jamais veremos outra época igual.
We need to keep in mind this type of music was part of popular radio stations once upon a time. Really sad we now get less elaborated bands and songs. Definitely one of the greatest 80s songs.
completamente de acuerdo aunque para mí también hay canciones en los años 90's muy buenas y en mi gusto de género en la parte trance/ club, dance y house /indie house también del 2000 al 2010 alguna que otra canción.. pero hay canciones en los 80's que marcarón tu infancia adolescencia erán otras épocas totalmente diferente a las actuales. Aunque cada etapa generaciones va cambiando.
Excellent video from this group of artists at the time but, oh! oh! how great! wonderful very good music! Congratulations!! quite simply ! when I listen to a really good piece of music! I'm a musician and I have a musical ear! So I can get away with writing at any time of the day! What music pleases me! I'm taking action by mentioning it! You can't imagine the good this brings me. This is some really good music that you can listen to all day long!
I saw them yesterday at Paloznak Jazz Piknik, and all what I can say, It was perfect , concert of the year/decade! All the vocals, everything was perfect! They're in top form! Don't miss them! And Mark brought the red Jaydee, and he has a new white Jaydee! Top Top Notch!

Passei anossssss e anoooosss😮sssss tentando descobrir essa música 😮 Ela passava antigamente na antena 1 eu amava, era pequenininha, depois mudamos p Portugal e nunca mais escutei, ai voltamos p Brasil nos anos 2000 e nao passava mais em lugar NUNHUM essa música, nem na antena 1... eu procurava no RUclips por músicas dos anos 80(pq Amoooo e na minha opinião são as melhores músicas de todos os tempos) mais não achava em lugar nenhum! Até p pessoas mais velhas eu cantava essa música na esperança de que alguém lembrasse... mais ninguém sabia! Cheguei a pensar que eu era louca e inventei essa música na cabeça num mundo paralelo kkkk.... E hjjjjj no deezer eu cantarolei essa música.. e DESACREDITEI qd dei o play, e era elaaaaaa❤❤❤❤ Meu Deus! Corri aqui no RUclips e já escutei ela umas 5x❤❤❤❤ Nem acredito! A última vez que escutei essa música, eu tinha 6anos, em 1991, e passei toooodos esses anos com essa música na cabeça !!!! Tô até pensando em fazer um vídeo no meu canal sobre isso, mais não sei se dá rock kkkk...meu canal é de beleza rs
Recuerdo 1987, tenía una radiograbadora en la que escuchaba una emisora en FM que ya no emite en guayaquil, cuando escuché esta canción quede ahí conectado...y a través de los años ha sido una de las canciones más recordadas por mi...Me da mucha nostalgia
Awww! I love that song, memories of my sweet 16, what times, how many memories come to my mind. My parents and my beautiful sister were with me 💔 and my unforgettable high school classmates, I love that time. ♥️
Toda vez que ouço essa música eu choro de emoção, não por tristeza mais de alegria, saudade, nostalgia, por ter vívido a época de ouro da música, onde somente o talento permitia o sucesso.

Sweeter is the memory spent with your loved one... Sweeter more cherishing the remembrance.
I'm not proud, I was wrong
And the truth is hard to take
I felt sure we had enough
But our love went overboard
Lifeboat lies lost at sea
I've been trying to reach your shore
Waves of doubt keep drowning me
All the dreams that we were building
We never fulfilled them
Could be better, should be better
For lessons in love
For restless eyes egos burn
And the mold is hard to break
Now we've waded in too deep
And love is overboard
Heavy hearts token words
All the hopes I ever had
Fade like footprints in the sand
All the homes that we were building
We never lived in
Could be better, should be better
Lessons in love
If we lose the time before us
The future will ignore us
We should use it, we could use it, yeah
Lessons in love
Lost without love
Lessons in love
When will you ever learn
Lessons in love
When there's nowhere left to turn
Lessons in love
Don't let your spirit burn
Lessons in love
I'll wait 'till you return
All the dreams that we were building
We never lived them
We could lose it, we should use it
(Lessons in love) lessons in love
All the homes that we were building
We never lived in
Could be better (could be better), should be better
Lessons in love
If we lose the time before us
The future will ignore us
We should use it, we could use it (good god)
Lessons in love
Couldn't xpress lost love in better words

And he wrote these lyrics
Still listening in 2024 ❤
Level 42 never recorded a bad track, that's how good they were. Class is permanent, they prove that fact
One of the best songs in the history of music.
Minha música favorita da banda, descobri eles em 2016 e nunca cansei de escutá-los. Um groove perfeito junto com os arranjos e vocais impecáveis de Mark King e Mike Lindup. Aparentemente, poucos comentam sobre Lindup, mas para mim, que estudo música e sou fascinado pelo universo das teclas, ele se torna uma ótima referência e inspiração!
Simmmmmm,as músicas deles vc gosta de cara
Essa eu nunca esqueci e passei anos buscando até que encontrei e descobri que outras que eu gostava eram deles
Agora sei nome e quem canta
Amoooo
a Banda é massa mesmo comecei a ouvi os caras em 2020 gostei Mark King um gênio cantando e Dedilhando o seu incrível baixo poucos fazem isso top anos 80 foda de mais jamais ano nenhum chegará aos pés dos anos 80
Perhaps one of the best songs ever written hands down
wow! It's cool! Level 42 was a British jazz-funk band formed in Reading, England, in 1979. The band consisted of Mark King (bass guitar, vocals), Mike Lindup (keyboards), Boon Gould (guitar), Gary Husband (drums), and Phil Gould (drums).
The band's name was inspired by the level 42 in the Douglas Adams science fiction comedy series The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The band's music was characterized by its complex, syncopated rhythms and its use of jazz and funk elements.
Level 42 released their debut album, The Early Tapes, in 1980. The album was a commercial success, reaching number 14 on the UK Albums Chart. The band's second album, The Pursuit of Accidents, was released in 1981 and reached number 10 on the UK Albums Chart.
The band's third album, True Colours, was released in 1982 and was their breakthrough album. The album reached number 1 on the UK Albums Chart and spawned the hit singles "Love Games", "The Chinese Way", and "The Sun Goes Down (Living It Up)".
Level 42 continued to release successful albums throughout the 1980s, including Standing in the Light (1983), World Machine (1985), and Running in the Family (1987). The band's music was also used in several films and television shows, including The Breakfast Club, The Royal Family, and Miami Vice.
In 1994, Level 42 disbanded. The band reunited in 2005 and have continued to tour and record ever since.
Level 42 is considered one of the most influential jazz-funk bands of all time. The band's complex rhythms and use of jazz elements helped to shape the sound of jazz-funk in the 1980s.
Level 42's music continues to be enjoyed by fans around the world. The band's albums have sold over 30 million copies worldwide.
Level 42 were influenced by a wide range of artists, including The Beatles, The Who, and Jimi Hendrix. The band was also influenced by jazz musicians, such as Miles Davis and John Coltrane.
Level 42 is considered one of the most influential jazz-funk bands of all time. The band's complex rhythms and use of jazz elements helped to shape the sound of jazz-funk in the 1980s.

Gary Husband came later when album Staring at the sun was out.
That's a real spirit of 80's. Such a nostalgy...
Oi
my mom had a CD she always played in the car when I was in middle School and this was the first song it played. I didn't know what it said because at the time, I didn't know English but damn how did I love it, she and my little sister would sometimes sing along and I would just enjoy the ride. they were the easier times... I miss them, and I miss her.

OH MY GOD.... MARK KING & LEVEL 42!!!!!!! GLI ANNI 80 SONO RITORNATI.......ALLA GRANDE!!!!!!! "LESSONS IN LOVE", QUESTO BRANO DEI LEVEL 42 ANCORA "SPACCA" IN RADIO!!!!!!!
Mark King... got to be one of the very best bass guitarists ever... just my opinion of course!
You are absolutely right there. This "King" has taken Bass to a new level. You know a Mark King Bass when you hear it....
Rest in Eternal Peace Boon Gould Thanks for the beautiful Music
RIP
Absolutely sadly miseed 🙏🙏
God dam I'm getting old, when I was a kid I always thought the lead singer looked like an old man now he looks like a kid.
The truth is hard to take
Como a música nós renova, hoje com 58 me sinto um adolescente .... Que maravilha....
Pode crer. Concordo plenamente.
Yo también!! con 57!!
One of the greatest songs of the eighties. Great band. Pure class 😍
True.
Exakt ☝️👍
@@silvianikolitsch7684 ✌
One of the great bands from the 80s , 80s was the best era ever and the best music .Long live the 80s 🎶🎵! 💜💛💙🧡❤
J'ai 52 ans et plein de souvenirs sur Rouen j'ai connu un super ami de Martinique qui m'a emmené partout quand j'avais 16 ans ont été 9 dans une Ranch rover j'étais dans le coffre bien à vous
Yes I agree❤❤
I wholeheartedly agree! 80's is my favourite era!
Definitely. Seem to be overlooked for some reason, were massive at the time. Haven't dated badly either.
200%!!!!i agree!!!!
Quien no desee escuchar esta bella música no está obligado. Lo que es para mi es genial. Aunque sea viejita es música muy buena y me trae momentos inolvidables y además no importa los años.
X 3
I was a young kid when this song came out... I'm a musician as a old ass adult... This music video really hugely massively underplays Mark King's outstanding bass playing, this guy is a triple A* top tier! The guitar is great, but MKs bass so driving!
Probably the most underrated band ever. Still a great pleasure to listen to all their albums.
What? They were huge. Who underrated them?
@@maggiefollett636 Allot of people talk about underrated ore Overlooked!?? Nothing is overrated ore overlooked.. Maybe to the people who wright this!! Greetings from Amsterdam
The music of the current generation lacks simplicity. In a good understanding. Now there are a lot of distorted vocals, antics of performers, broken rhythms. It's not bad, but sometimes you miss music like this, carrying simplicity and a noble clean charge. Thank you, respect from Siberia
There's no talent that's why. Auto tune for one has enabled anyone with no vocal capabilities to be able to attempt to create 'music'
Well said!
@@174trek I wonder if young people even know how truly poor their music is today.
@@174trek There where so many amazing singers in the 80's.
Yessssssss!!!!!!
this record came out the summer of 86.. i was banged up in youth custody for driving on a ban.. luckily i had a radio and this song all ways made me smile.
I'm not proud, I was wrong and the truth is hard to take
I felt sure we had enough but our love went overboard
Lifeboat lies lost at sea I've been trying to reach your shore
Waves of doubt keep drowning me
All the dreams that we were building
We never fulfilled them
Could be better, should be better
For lessons in love
For restless eyes, egos burn and the mold is hard to break
Now we've waded in too deep and love is overboard
Heavy hearts token words all the hopes I ever had
Fade like footprints in the sand
All the homes that we were building
We never lived in
Could be better, should be better
Lessons in love
If we lose the time before us
The future will ignore us
We should use it, we could use it, yeah
Lessons in love
Lost without love
Lessons in love
When will you ever learn
Lessons in love
When there's nowhere left to turn
Lessons in love
Don't let your spirit burn
Lessons in love
I'll wait 'till you return
All the dreams that we were building
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
We never lived them
We could lose it, we should use it
(Lessons in love)
Lessons in love
All the homes that we were building
We never lived in
Could be better
(Could be better)
Should be better
(Yeah, yeah)

We should use it, we could use it

2022 y esta canción nunca pasará de moda o mejor dicho todas esas canciones clásicas jamás pasará de moda.
Que viva los clásicos de la buena música!!
Siempre los asociaban con pat Metheny group Kenny g y UB40 en las radios , aunque creo que era algo antojadiso, ya que el sonido de level 42 era un vaivén entre el pop y el jazz
Soy un afortunado de haber vivido esta década de la música tan prodigiosa, con tan buenas voces y ritmos, esta canción me transporta, la disfruto y siempre será eterna. Recordando en 2021 desde Perú.
@@nukliozz😂😂 gracias, te dije q me transportaba 🤣🤣🤣👍👍
Los que amos los 80 los transporta com mucha nostargia
Muy buena música Mark es un genio que gloriosa época dorada los 80 lo mejor de eun antes y después y hoy sigue disponible para todos los ochenteros como nosotros que vivimos esa época
Level 42.... impossível ficar parado.....e viva os anos 80! 😍🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃
Yo también soy de Perú y en verdad ésta música transporta y relaja, yo la bailo frente a mi esposa e hijos no me interesa lo que piensen uno es libre de sentir la música eso no hace humanos.
Un excelente clásico,sigo escuchando junio 2024
👍
Believe it or not, I fell in love with level42 at the age of 2! I used to wrap tape around my fingers and imitate playing bass a lot😊.
I have been listening to level42 ever since I was two until now! I love it! Now I am 16 years old.
No decade will ever top the 80's!!!
It's 2020 and I still need LESSONS IN LOVE... 80's forever!!! ❤
My Melody your not alone there
@@lamueldagon7618 that's nice to know!!! 😊

Me to lol!🤣
I danced to this in the clubs. Born in 1969.
Danced right through the 80"s in my teens.
Now 55 this year.
These modern times are horrible. Too much hate. At least back then you could get into a fight and nobody would try and kill you.
So true😢
So true...same year..born in 1969..
The Greatest Hits of the 80's🩷
.... Level 42 one of my favorite New Wave Band🍀🍀🫰
Level 42 is a fusion jazz band like Shakatak 😊
I lost someone close to me and a few days later I had a dream that I was switching on the radio. So I did when I woke up and this song was playing. “I’ll wait till you return” and “I’ve been trying to reach your shore” in the lyrics nearly broke me. I’ll love you forever S xxx
Even in 2021 this is 🔥🔥🔥
The are good to comment because the one million subscribers does not arrive 🤔 level 42
I remembered this song from when I was a kid in the 80s and thought it was called something else and tried combinations of what I thought the lyrics were on RUclips 🤣🤣🤣
@@hexkutia9505 because michael michael jackson has 20 million subscribers and level 42 I don't wonder
@@oswaldoruiz9976 gee I didn't know you could count
@@hexkutia9505 shure I have heard other songs lyrics and thought it was something else 🤣
This video clip is like a painting, and then again a movie. Wonderful shots.!
Lvl 42 was 1 of my favorite bands in late 70s.! Their music was so diferent. Great songs.!!
This is not just an 80's band: this is among the elite of that decade !
Agree. Level 42 and the Thompson twins were my favourite 80s bands.
True Talent ❤️
Estuve durante años intentando buscar esta canción y su nombre y la banda que la canta. Esta canción me evoca al año 2008, cuando tenía 14 años y solía escuchar canciones de este tipo en un programa de radio de entonces. Y a pesar de no haber existido en la época en que salieron estos temas, posteriormente acompañaron mis momentos de enamoramiento de una chica que fue muy especial para mí. Esta canción acompañaba mi euforia, mis anhelos, mis deseos, mis frustraciones de sueños perdidos y sembrados, mis nostalgias y mis tristezas. Hoy con 26 años y gracias a esta música maravillosa, puedo rescatar fragmentos de viejas emociones de adolescentes y sembrarlas en mi adultez.
Increible anecdota 🥳 yo tengo 21 años y también la estuve buscando un buen tiempo jaja hoy se la dedique a mi novia 🙈. Salu2 hermano

Love the song, nearly 50 now, the lesson I've learnt over the years ,from when I first enjoyed level 42,is these songs heal the heart and mind ,these songs are like pure medicine ,make me feel happy and enriched in my heart ,thank you level 42.
There is no song like this anymore. SO ENERGETIC. I am happy that I can still dance with this song
Dude, that BASE-player..... outstanding skills. Ever more when you consider that he is simultaniously singing. They where all great musicians.
Level 42 everyone of you never will imagine how this song was frecuently broadcasted at the FM radio stations in Venezuela in the 80s!
Great memories of the 80s growing up
Thank you 1980s
Cool ! Je vois que tu est actif , regarde Erwann potier Liban 2019 . salut courage .
RIP Sir Boon.. you were an inspiration.. your music will always play & never forgotten...
Increíble como esta canción de 1986 viene a darme justo en la herida en pleno 2023!!! La música es eterna!!!

And they are not in the rock and roll H.O.F.
Rest peacefully Boon Gould, great guitarist and co-founder of a great and legendary band. Greetings from Chile 🇨🇱 😢
Não nasci nos anos 80 mas queria ter vivido naquela época caramba só musicas top, as batidas, os sons dos instrumentos, as letras da gosto de escutar esse tipo de musica.
Todo,todo una ricurísima de canción
Yo estaba en la universidad en los años 80s. …que bellos tiempos en alegría, baile, buena música y gente buena.
O melhor presente dessa vida que Deus me deu foi descobrir esses tesouros maravilhosos da década de 80, eu amo demais, jamais veremos outra época igual.
Só tem gente de bom gosto aqui!! 🙌
Foi mesmo a melhor época pra tudo
숨겨진 명곡, 한국의 TV나 라디오에선 잘 틀어주지 않는 좋은 곡.
Mark King's voice is angelic
I find His voice powerful ,keyborder's voice (dont remember.his name)is angelic
@@simonamercuryjackson1874 His name is Mike Lindup.
@@schlendrian5910 thank you very much my friend
A unique and distinctive voice in a real good class way. ☺
We need to keep in mind this type of music was part of popular radio stations once upon a time. Really sad we now get less elaborated bands and songs. Definitely one of the greatest 80s songs.
Me! I saw them live at Glastonbury in 1984. I wasn't a fan but they just blew me away. Brilliant performance.
Ever super sound 👍👍👍😂😂😍
Que Ritmo..... que voces!!!! .... que letra..... la música de los 80's es incomparable
completamente de acuerdo aunque para mí también hay canciones en los años 90's muy buenas y en mi gusto de género en la parte trance/ club, dance y house /indie house también del 2000 al 2010 alguna que otra canción.. pero hay canciones en los 80's que marcarón tu infancia adolescencia erán otras épocas totalmente diferente a las actuales. Aunque cada etapa generaciones va cambiando.
Isto é música com qualidade!
Indudablemente
esta musica alegra el alma dan ganas de vivir
@@rodolfomurguia9621 de vivir pero mas
Another one of Level 42's masterpieces. Been listening to this since my elementary days, greetings from the Philippines!
Great British band 🇬🇧
Excellent video from this group of artists at the time
but, oh! oh! how great! wonderful very good music!
Congratulations!!
quite simply !
when I listen to a really good piece of music!
I'm a musician and I have a musical ear!
So I can get away with writing at any time of the day!
What music pleases me!
I'm taking action by mentioning it!
You can't imagine the good this brings me.
This is some really good music that you can listen to all day long!
I saw them yesterday at Paloznak Jazz Piknik, and all what I can say, It was perfect , concert of the year/decade! All the vocals, everything was perfect! They're in top form! Don't miss them! And Mark brought the red Jaydee, and he has a new white Jaydee! Top Top Notch!
Crazy bass playing, love the beautiful 80’s !
It always gives me Bitter Tears vibes.

Recuerdo 1987, tenía una radiograbadora en la que escuchaba una emisora en FM que ya no emite en guayaquil, cuando escuché esta canción quede ahí conectado...y a través de los años ha sido una de las canciones más recordadas por mi...Me da mucha nostalgia
Awww! I love that song, memories of my sweet 16, what times, how many memories come to my mind. My parents and my beautiful sister were with me 💔 and my unforgettable high school classmates, I love that time. ♥️
Las voces y la música ,los conjuntos y bandas de los 80's, son insuperables hasta hoy, gracias.
What a pleasure to hear this song, what a melody, in 2020.
Toda vez que ouço essa música eu choro de emoção, não por tristeza mais de alegria, saudade, nostalgia, por ter vívido a época de ouro da música, onde somente o talento permitia o sucesso.
Rowland Gould, também conhecido como Boon Gould Guitarrista RIP⚰🪦🪦
