This song was released 41 years ago, yesterday, on April 15th, 1983, the day before my birthday. My sweet mom told me she heard the song hours before delivering me and she loved it. I guess that's why I have this song in my head like the song of my life. 😊
Cassettes, VHS tapes, the Walkman, Atari, Casio C-80, Motorola DynaTAC 8000X, MSX, Back to the Future, E.T., Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD), Pet Shop Boys, Cindy, Madonna, end of the Cold War...and Spandau Ballet! What an era the 1980s was!

I used to take a nap in the afternoon when I was a kid. My dad used to come home in the afternoon from work and always played this song on his favourite music system. I remember waking up to this song often. He used to give me a hug and a kiss on the forehead after waking up saying “Hey kiddo!”. My dad left this world on September 5, 2021 after a long battle with Parkinson’s. This song will always remind me of him. If there’s a heaven, we will meet again Papa and we’ll listen to this song again.
I was 14 when this was released, I blinked and now I’m 55 almost 56. These songs take me back to better times. Great old song. Thank you for posting!!!
It took some getting use to the 80's style, however your quite right, it's the very last decade of music that was really good and made a great deal of sense. After that silly, crappy rap crap too over the airwaves, music went down hill in a heartbeat. Matter of fact once that rap crap took over a lot of radio stations throughout the country changed their format to nothing but talk shows and or this silly sports talk show gig.
@@conradford7493 Sorry the 70's feel that way. Everytime I retreat to the 70's it brings me great comfort in world that has lost its warmth, its depth, its creative agility.... Not simply because it was my childhood & Im all sentimental about that. But because the 70's was a state of consciousness & social freedom unique to the era. Not just limited to marijuana-smoking hippies, either. It was everyone, on all levels. It really goes back to the jazz cats of the 1920's- - all that jazz, funk, & jive stuff. Plus chicago, NYC, & L.A. jazz cats were the first to "integrate." To me & kids like me that mentality & atmosphere is leonard nimoy hosting alan landsburg's _in search of._ Also _national geographic_ specials, narrated by a panorama of narrators from burgess meredith to keith david, william shatner & others. Jacques cousteau's 10 year long epic, which ran from 1972-82. The science program _nova_ which began in 1975 & is still produced today Hollywood & mainstream pop culture started to come around to that open-mindedness & racial acceptiveness beginning with 1940's technicolor film. (My g.parent's time) _Sun valley serenade_ (1941) featuring glenn miller & his orchestra performing _in the mood_ is a perfect example. You can also jump back to fats waller performing _this joint's jumpin'_ & _your feet's too big,_ in 1935 & '36. All of these performances are available right here on YT. Hipster & beatnic jive talk, & funk music all have their roots going back to the 1920's jazz cats, that I mentioned before. Tom & jerry's _zoot cat_ (in 1943) demonstrates jive talk real well, & so do _the aristocats,_ in 1970 Anyway, that brings us to when the boomers became young adults (1960's) & their influence on us 1960's & 70's genx brats. This state-of-mind is best represented by mel brooks' _blazing saddles,_ & _silver streak_ with richard pryor & gene wilder. From TV there's _kojak, all in the family, & sanford & son_ Thanks for permitting me to reflect on cultural influences through the decades! 💜

November 3, 2024. I'm an American woman who is 60ish and I LOVE this song. My mom did too. Sadly, she went to heaven in 1987, only 47 years old. Brain tumor. I miss her so very much. ❤
My deepest condolences and sympathy to your family. I lost my wife at the age of 54. Thank god she was able to see her last child of 4 graduate high school before she passed 😢
Ahhh...I'm 61 now and this was on all the time on MTV back in the day. I loved it then and I love it now. But please tell me...where did the years go and when did I get old?
I was 8 years old when this song came out in 1983, my mom would slow dance with me in the kitchen, here I am 40 years later in 2023 at the age of 48 and I still love it like the first time I heard it!! His voice is timeless! Love how songs can take u back to a time & place instantly! RIP mommy
Being active duty military, I’ve randomly heard this song across the entire world. Different places, different times, but you feel the same timeless vibes.
50 and i used to hide my SB tapes from my punk rock friends. Couldn’t have anyone finding my Wham , Madona and Sade collection 🙈☠️. I had a musical family so i couldn’t help but listen to everything !
I love reading all the touching comments on this song. My Mom would listen to this on the radio when it came out, she had a '77 Chevy Nova that had a hole in the floor on the front passenger side, like you could see the street. She had cardboard over it. Anyway point being, we were poor, but my brother and I had my Mom. And everything was ok. Listening to this as we froze in the back seat in a Chicago winter. Miss you Mom.
I am a 60’s child… 80’s teenager… and this song brings back so many wonderful memories. I know every generation feels like their teen years were the best and that all the other generations missed out, but the ’80s were epic… and if I could relive that decade all over again. I wouldn’t hesitate to jump into a time-machine and warp back to the moment this record catapulted onto the scene. I think every generation has that one magical song they can sit back in a chair and close their eyes while listening to it, and it takes them right back to the energy… the emotions… and the memories of the year that song touched their souls. Life is truly a gift… and the spirits remind us of how precious that gift is through music.
There is something about the 80's that sets it apart from other decades. I can remember moments in my life back in the 80s ,when this song would play on the radio. That's a special song when you can remember the exact moments in your life listening to this song. Yes True definitely represents the 80's for many of us.
You can't convince me that there was a better era of music across the board than the 80s. Songs like this were so good to listen to. I'm 45 now and I'm glad that my older brother put me on to songs like this one. Great song. Great decade.
I can & all you have to do is look up ANY alltime best rated Top 100 albums & I'd say 85% of those came from the 70's. Bowie was on fire, the cocaine, brandy & his ego hadn't blunted Elton John's genius, McCartney was making some amazing music with Wings - Queen, Led Zepp, Floyd... the gods who were early Genesis, Rolling Stones still Rolling... Punk beginning.... If you know music, you know the 70's was the era! 👍
While I can't disagree with anyone in this post because music is subjective...ill respectively say that music from the 70s till the mid late 90s was my golden era...soul;rock;hairbands;RnB;rap;boy bands and so much more...the creativity seemed endless...maybe I'm just old but I don't enjoy today's music so much
@@frederickfox3400 Although he's been around for a little while now, checkout a guy called *Father John Misty.* I'm lucky enough to listen to & own a LOT of music & rate him as special. Funny enough, I was put onto him through an identical YT discussion!
Reading the comments, knowing i'm sharing moments with people all over the world is surreal. You're all amazing and you're doing better than you think.
It's hard to believe this is 40 years old, and it's still played on the radio. The 80's and 90's were great music decades for country and soft rock. The time went by so fast and now I'm almost 60 and still love this song.
Agreed 100 %...80's & 90's were just so peaceful with good music, real music and quality. This was one of the songs and a few other songs I listened to in my senior year class of 87. I would go to my nearest park with family and friends on Sunday and BBQ and listen to soft rock. No one will be able to replace those songs...
You know, one of the best things about being in my 50's now, is that I lived my teenage years in the 80's.........Priceless and I wouldn't change them for the world!
In 1984 I met a pretty girl at the university and we kind of adopted this song as how we felt about each other. It's weird how a love song can start things that way. It's 34 years later and she's standing behind me as I post this...
Steve, way to go dude!!! You're a lucky man. The most important thing in the world, family. And no good woman. No family. I hope you appreciate her, and likewise for her. After 30yrs my kids mother left. Then the kids grow up, and they leave. Enjoy my brother. Enjoy, every moment!!! I'm now pushen 70. It goes so fast!!!
electronic music took over in the late 80s and it peaked in 1991/92... I'd be honored if some fans of classic 80s anthems would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of EYE OF THE TIGER by Survivor, IS THIS LOVE by Whitesnake, and PURPLE RAIN by Prince on my YT channel in tribute to the era of legendary power ballads. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Thanks & peace.
How is this music video able to be both sincerely awesome and unintentionally hilarious at the same time??? One of the most 80s music videos of the 80s!
@@helushkawikvaya2244 I was in Berlin during the summer of 1984. I have lived in Japan, Australia and Chile. I have not been to Kazakhstan yet, though I have been to Turkey. Turkish and Kazakh are in the same language family.
I was 11 years old in 1984. Man how time flies. We didn’t know what we had back then. I don’t even listen 👂 to music of today. It doesn’t hold a candle 🕯️ to the 70s 80s or 90s. Memories memories memories. If I could back.
RIP Perry, my husband. This brings me back to the good days. It's been over 30 years. I miss you so much to this day. You were gone way too young. I can't listen to this without feeling him with me.
I was a little girl growing up in Italy and listening to this fantastic son and 30 years later I still love it. Unforgettable and wonderful classic I still love to listen to. One of the best song ever
This much is true! However, if you did theoretically take a time machine back, it wouldn't be the past that you and your family lived, such as depicted in the iconic 80's movie hit, "Back to the Future." You would simply enter into a parallel universe of your historical timeline where Adolf Hitler's mother performed infanticide on him, WWII never happened, you were conceived during an encounter with a prostitute that your father had, you were born with cerebral palsy, and Spandau Ballet all died in a horrific plane crash before writing their #1 hit, "True." After all this, maybe things WOULD have been better off if Hitler was not snuffed out by his mother! This much is true?
How lucky were we all to have lived in the 80s!! Born in 1977...so I grew up as a kid living in the Best Decade of Human History. I loved every second of it. And we all got to experience it together!!! Looking back...we were soooo freaking blessed to have lived that time period
This song still sounds as good as it does when it was released almost 40 years ago, if you are watching this video, then yes, this song is confirmed as a success that is timeless.
I'd be honored if some fans of classic 80s anthems would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of EYE OF THE TIGER by Survivor, AGAINST ALL ODDS by Phil Collins, and PURPLE RAIN by Prince in tribute to the era of legendary power ballads. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Peace and stay safe in the '020s.
What can I say to those who weren’t fortunate enough to be young in the 80’s. All I can say is that it felt electric. Every time a song came on, everything around you, school, friends, music, movies. God it was good.
The lyrics, the instrumentals, the musicians, (especially the guy mastering the saxophone), the lead singer, the soul and flow of the rythym track. Masterpiece of a song and natural singer! 1980's classic music! Salute!
That is Steve Norman on the tenor 🎷. He took up the tenor 🎷 because of the direction Gary Kemp wanted the sound to go into. The lead singer is Tony Hadley.
Let's just hope it's not so lost that we can't find it again. But we have to look for it first and there doesn't seem to be an enormous amount of passion looking for that lost art.
I’m now 52. Was a young teenager when this was released. I’m now with my first girlfriend ever. 36 years later we are together again. This song is so special to us.
My wife and I have a similar story. We were, "only," 18 years apart, when we rekindled our romance. I thought that 18 years would kill me...and then I look at you, and see the number 36...wow.
I tried to find that long tail suit like the one the lead singer was wearing I know it was probably made in England those British boys nobody beats British dapper wear I was able to find a tailor who made me one and I still have it my son wears it now he’s a very dapper type of person it’s amazing 😂
Cannot understand how anyone cannot like this, such a good song and so well performed, a great standard from all those years ago but still has the power to pull you up...
In high school for the 1970's but the 80's provided some great times and music as well. Nothing like today. Wish could go back in time and enjoy those times once again.
My dad listens to this always when I was a kid and when he was a teen back in the 1980's. He loves this song. Now my dad passed away in August 17, 2022, We played this song in the chapel so that his soul could still listen to his favorite song when he was still in this world and when he was still with us. I will always think of my dad when I listen to this song because I know this is what is part of his life. I will miss my dad. R.I.P. Dad, we will miss you and we will soon meet you again.
Growing up in the 80’s, this song right here was one of my all time favorites and makes me wanna go back to those times forget about these times and even throw away my cell phone...I know this much is true!!!
I was just a whipper snapper back in the 80s but I've already told my wife this is my last cell phone. When it's gone I go back to a land line with an answering machine. Maybe a cheap flip phone for emergencys...
I'd be honored if some fans of classic 80s anthems would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of EYE OF THE TIGER by Survivor, IS THIS LOVE by Whitesnake, and PURPLE RAIN by Prince on my YT channel in tribute to the era of legendary power ballads.

I just woke up, I'm sitting in my apartment looking out my window and it's raining outside. I put this song on and I instantly get goosebumps. I just love the melody so much. Definitely in my top three favorite '80s songs of all time.
Im 22 as of this year, and i always love 80s music. I use to work as a cook at a resteraunt and the owners only played 80s music and that was how i got into listening songs from the 70s and 80s.
Born in 1990, and raised by my 80s music-loving mama and daddy :) Car rides with the radio blasting. ❤ This decade brought us some of the best music. The best!! And now I myself am an 80s music lover 🥰
And you can pass the love and family memories down to your little ones so they can grow up with them too. I'm so grateful for this RUclips time machine 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🥰
SORRY, NOOO!!! Yes, it IS great, I LOVE it! BUT, nothing compares to the 60's - from early Rock n' Roll to the incredible Beatles, psychedelic, Hendrix, Doors...
I remember going home for lunch at noon from school, and this one radio station, my dad listened to, played this song in Jamaica. It brings such vivid memories of him working, the was a carpenter. He was tall with that beautiful smile of his. Even though it's been 10 years since he passed, when I hear this song, and I rarely do, it takes me right back to those moments.
@@NinjaBartender Yep sorry, it was so long ago I forgot the name. I liked his voice when this song came out and the melody. I know there is a Kemp in there too? I followed them as a teen in the 80s, forgot names now. Tx
Que privilégio ter vivido os anos 80, era adolescente , nem se compara com os adolescentes de hoje. Havia respeito, lembro que nossas paqueras eram um olhar, uma carta, um sorriso. Pegar na mão da garota era uma realização, havia romantismo....havia amor....hj se perdeu tudo isso....mas quem viveu esta época sabe o que estou falando!!!! Esta música faz parte de nossa vidas!!!!! Quem concorda?
That's so true! Video game arcades, cool sitcoms, the Thompson twins, new wave music, cheap prices, VCRs, the list is Long! I was born in 1970, but I remember the 1980s just like yesterday! My Dad loved Spandau Ballets song True! If only he could've seen the video to it! LIP Dad!
I turned 71 in 2019 and still love this song. I liked the music from the 1950s, but loved the '60s through the '80s. Lots of great music and great artists.
This song was released 41 years ago, yesterday, on April 15th, 1983, the day before my birthday. My sweet mom told me she heard the song hours before delivering me and she loved it. I guess that's why I have this song in my head like the song of my life. 😊

A TRUE CLASSIC- Tony Hadleys' voice was one of the best ever!
I remember hearing this song over 3 decades ago and said to myself this will be a Classic to this day.
Just smooth !
Peter Turley EVER
Peter Turley HE SANG THE FUCK OUTTA THIS SONG 😊
It still is! Seen him in December 2023, still Gold 🎤
I was expecting my daughter when this song came out
There is something about the 80's that sets it apart from other decades. I can remember moments in my life back in the 80s ,when this song would play on the radio. That's a special song when you can remember the exact moments in your life listening to this song. Yes True definitely represents the 80's for many of us.
I share exactly the same feeling
I always have felt that way with 1970's music.
I know. The eightees were magical. The best years of my life
I would have to say the same thing about both the 70s and the 80s.........many happy memories and so much incredible music.
@@WriterandPhotographer Yes I would agree with you
You can't convince me that there was a better era of music across the board than the 80s. Songs like this were so good to listen to. I'm 45 now and I'm glad that my older brother put me on to songs like this one. Great song. Great decade.
I can & all you have to do is look up ANY alltime best rated Top 100 albums & I'd say 85% of those came from the 70's.
Bowie was on fire, the cocaine, brandy & his ego hadn't blunted Elton John's genius, McCartney was making some amazing music with Wings - Queen, Led Zepp, Floyd... the gods who were early Genesis, Rolling Stones still Rolling... Punk beginning....
If you know music, you know the 70's was the era! 👍
I feel the same way about the 70s .. having said that, this is a classic
While I can't disagree with anyone in this post because music is subjective...ill respectively say that music from the 70s till the mid late 90s was my golden era...soul;rock;hairbands;RnB;rap;boy bands and so much more...the creativity seemed endless...maybe I'm just old but I don't enjoy today's music so much

Funny enough, I was put onto him through an identical YT discussion!
@@pup1008 just saw this and will do my brother...Ive always loved and appreciated music...thank you for the recommendation

I swear this is one of the smoothest songs I have ever heard.
Same here Enrique and it's my favorite if only I'd my boyfriend to dance with if he was right here and I played it I'd sing it to him while dancing

Totally. Between this and Human by Human League it just doesn't get any better. The two biggest marks on 80's music in my book.
You're right. It's so fucking perfect that Bryan Ferry couldn't make it better.

So full of promise 🥲
I wish we were still in the 80s
So do I wish I was also back in the 80s
I know this much is true.
I believe it and I was born in the early 90s
It's hard to believe this is 40 years old, and it's still played on the radio. The 80's and 90's were great music decades for country and soft rock. The time went by so fast and now I'm almost 60 and still love this song.
It was just played in Missouri radio
Agreed 100 %...80's & 90's were just so peaceful with good music, real music and quality. This was one of the songs and a few other songs I listened to in my senior year class of 87. I would go to my nearest park with family and friends on Sunday and BBQ and listen to soft rock. No one will be able to replace those songs...

Music back then was mental medicine!
In 1984 I met a pretty girl at the university and we kind of adopted this song as how we felt about each other. It's weird how a love song can start things that way. It's 34 years later and she's standing behind me as I post this...
Steve, way to go dude!!! You're a lucky man. The most important thing in the world, family. And no good woman. No family. I hope you appreciate her, and likewise for her. After 30yrs my kids mother left. Then the kids grow up, and they leave. Enjoy my brother. Enjoy, every moment!!! I'm now pushen 70. It goes so fast!!!

The 80's was the gold age of electronic music.
electronic music took over in the late 80s and it peaked in 1991/92... I'd be honored if some fans of classic 80s anthems would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of EYE OF THE TIGER by Survivor, IS THIS LOVE by Whitesnake, and PURPLE RAIN by Prince on my YT channel in tribute to the era of legendary power ballads.

Music that I often listened in my father’s car when I was little.
Now it’s playing in my car.

I was 11 years old in 1984. Man how time flies. We didn’t know what we had back then. I don’t even listen 👂 to music of today. It doesn’t hold a candle 🕯️ to the 70s 80s or 90s. Memories memories memories. If I could back.

Excellent Italy beautiful country love to go there someday
I used to live in Italy when I listened to this song for the first time and fell in love with it since then.

This song is so beautiful, the cool thing about music is that it creates a time machine for you.
This much is true! However, if you did theoretically take a time machine back, it wouldn't be the past that you and your family lived, such as depicted in the iconic 80's movie hit, "Back to the Future." You would simply enter into a parallel universe of your historical timeline where Adolf Hitler's mother performed infanticide on him, WWII never happened, you were conceived during an encounter with a prostitute that your father had, you were born with cerebral palsy, and Spandau Ballet all died in a horrific plane crash before writing their #1 hit, "True." After all this, maybe things WOULD have been better off if Hitler was not snuffed out by his mother! This much is true?
Agreed!
Frank Grimes yesssss for sure
Yes indeed true

How lucky were we all to have lived in the 80s!!
Born in 1977...so I grew up as a kid living in the Best Decade of Human History. I loved every second of it. And we all got to experience it together!!!
Looking back...we were soooo freaking blessed to have lived that time period
There are many of us who wish a DeLorean time machine existed
But we are old now because we were born earlier than the current generation.
Born in 1973 so I know EXACTLY whst yoi're talking about! 😁
As a person born in the. 21st century, I've never been so mad about missing out on something. I wish I could've been alive for this
I miss the 80s soooooo Much. Was born in April 1974. Wanna go back to the 80s sooooooo Bad
This song still sounds as good as it does when it was released almost 40 years ago, if you are watching this video, then yes, this song is confirmed as a success that is timeless.
I'd be honored if some fans of classic 80s anthems would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of EYE OF THE TIGER by Survivor, AGAINST ALL ODDS by Phil Collins, and PURPLE RAIN by Prince in tribute to the era of legendary power ballads.

Joseph; it ain't over 'til it's over, brother. They haven't killed our spirit yet.....
What can I say to those who weren’t fortunate enough to be young in the 80’s. All I can say is that it felt electric. Every time a song came on, everything around you, school, friends, music, movies. God it was good.
I’m too young to relate. I didn’t exist then at all
Yah me too I wanna be from that time my said the 80s were awesome
@@AlmightyWhitey-g6w True 👍

Slow dance last call at the bar
The lyrics, the instrumentals, the musicians, (especially the guy mastering the saxophone), the lead singer, the soul and flow of the rythym track. Masterpiece of a song and natural singer!
1980's classic music! Salute!
That is Steve Norman on the tenor 🎷. He took up the tenor 🎷 because of the direction Gary Kemp wanted the sound to go into. The lead singer is Tony Hadley.
The fineness and Style of the 80s in a few minutes
This kinda of music is a lost art.

No sir!

You Got to know it!! Straight Fire!!!!
I love his swag, the way he moves while holding the sax 🎷.
Many songs from the 81-83 period had sax in them. Special!!
The sax player's bangs are fire (cool breeze)
The scent of Patchouli, long tapered candles and Mateus Rose Wine..
Winning combo every time..
One of the best makeout songs of the 1980's. Cheers..
the amount of class in this video is off the charts.
I'd add that this might be the best piece of art in history, imho.
I had to laugh because you're statement is so true.....

I remember going home for lunch at noon from school, and this one radio station, my dad listened to, played this song in Jamaica. It brings such vivid memories of him working, the was a carpenter. He was tall with that beautiful smile of his. Even though it's been 10 years since he passed, when I hear this song, and I rarely do, it takes me right back to those moments.
I’m in Jamaica now and this masterpiece was just played on the radio! 😂❤

Que privilégio ter vivido os anos 80, era adolescente , nem se compara com os adolescentes de hoje. Havia respeito, lembro que nossas paqueras eram um olhar, uma carta, um sorriso. Pegar na mão da garota era uma realização, havia romantismo....havia amor....hj se perdeu tudo isso....mas quem viveu esta época sabe o que estou falando!!!!
Esta música faz parte de nossa vidas!!!!! Quem concorda?
digo o mesmo para os meus filhos, esse tempo nao volta nunca mais. Havia uma variedade de musica e parece que estavamos numa novela com fundo musical.
Essa época era maravilhosa. Que saudades. 😢
I believe you have the exact memory of living in the best time
I know exactly what your talking about bc I'm an 80s teen myself
Che gran classe
80s is a decade you'll never forget

That's so true! Video game arcades, cool sitcoms, the Thompson twins, new wave music, cheap prices, VCRs, the list is Long! I was born in 1970, but I remember the 1980s just like yesterday! My Dad loved Spandau Ballets song True! If only he could've seen the video to it! LIP Dad!

yes the period (1982 -1985) was the best time for music and specially 1983
Damn I love this song, gives me a weird sense of nostalgia even though I wasn't born in the era. Would be amazing to see what life was like back then.
Frank Spencer I'm jealous!

Yeah, it WAS pretty cool!
What a decade to be alive in ! Graduated high school in '82. I am so lucky to have been there. The hair, the clothes, and especially the music !
So many memories from the 80s 😊 good old days
I am born in 1989, but have listened to all the 80s songs,
and feel 80s was magical listening to them.

Es la base de todo
I turned 71 in 2019 and still love this song. I liked the music from the 1950s, but loved the '60s through the '80s. Lots of great music and great artists.
