Thanks for giving me something to connect with my mother. Thanks Kim
This song is a Evergreen and still and forever in my heart.
NINGUÉM ama esta música mais que eu❤💝💖
Bette Davis' eyes deserve it.
They tease you after they seduced you saying to you, '' I like to Kiss you, but i ve just washed my hair..bye!''
First time hearing this song my favourite now
whoever is hearing this song in nowadays, You have a good taste of music mate.
we're both
Yessssss
it's great stuff! It actually tells a good story, not to mentions sounds great! 👍
I was a baby when these songs were made but boy I've been listening to this 80s music & wish I was there back then but we are here so we can imagine what it must have been to live it real-time.
@@nyahwe I know how U feel, this song made me miss the 80s even tho I wasn’t born yet :(
One of the more lucid, conscious, unique songs I've ever heard. Variety is the spice of life
Someone listening in 2024?
Yes I am
yep......................
Yes, with great joy and satisfaction.
Damn right
❤❤❤❤❤
It’s comforting to know that this masterpiece is still appreciated by all of you wonderful people.

😵🪦 RIP to the guy who boinked the loose chick with the sexy 👀

This song took a dark turn😓
LOVE THIS SONG -💓
And you are appreciated by me. X
I was born in 1998 and I still listen to this song nowadays
💯🤗🌙 Tells us to use our eyes, and bee mindful 🧿💭
Music is the closest thing we got to a time machine.
Profound, and so true.
I will work on my flux capacitor.. XD
Amen!
Fight
So true
Dear Kim, thank you for this wonderful masterpiece.
The fact that people these days don't know who Bette Davis is but still completely understand what this song means is great.
The fact that some people don't know who the iconic Bette Davis is truly is sad. Then again, the first producer who saw her initially said he saw no one who looked like a star and she was that and so much more. Those haunting eyes, that dramatic acting, that unmistakable voice... There will ever only be one Bette Davis.
Well I also saw clips like ,,The big dictator" from Charlie Chaplin before I even knew who he was.
No tenga idea quien sea Bette Davis pero está canción me encanta 😃
I'm a little confused by the song actually. I only discovered it recently when Ethel Cain covered it at a gig. I perceived it as a queer anthem but reading comments now I don't know if that's what the mainstream opinion is... Do people think it's queer-coded? The lyrics, vocal performance and music video feel very sapphic. Like she's lusting after this woman. I don't know who Bette Davis is but sounds like she must have been a bit of a sex symbol? Beautiful, troubled and dangerous to fall in love with?
"Actress Bette Davis, at the time 73 years old, wrote letters to Carnes, Weiss, and DeShannon to thank all three of them for making her "a part of modern times" and said her grandson now looked up to her. After their Grammy wins, Davis sent them roses as well."
and now her name is just a lyric in an old pop song. It kind of makes me wonder about the futility of trying to create a legacy.
That is incredible, I had no idea.... But so characteristic of "Bette", marvelous fact, thanks so much....
@@Erebos2517 really? maybe to you she's "just a lyric in an old pop song" but many of us still watch her films and KNOW how brilliant she was.
Not a her. That's a fella, a deceiver.
@@Erebos2517 Bette Davis is one of the greatest actors of all time period.
Absolutely listening, still rockin at 73 years old
Money will never be able to buy class. A lady with class is a rare gem.
class is treating others well no matter what their backgrounds are, it's humility and respect
👏
CAPABLE FEMALES. :) ❤❤❤
No one else could sing this song, Kim Carnes had the perfect voice, rugged and throaty. Bravo!
👍❤
Agree
Janis Joplin would absolutely crush this song
Tylko ona jest w stanie tak zastosować naturalną chrypkę❤
Agnetha has been said to sound like spun sugar
I didn't get to know my mom.. she passed when I was three.. but her friend told me what her favorite song was.. and when I feel I need a hug.. I play it.. makes me sad.. but better at the same time.. wishing you well through your journey in life..
ray peters Sending prayers your way
I love u right now fella
This made me cry!
I feel that dude..
I'm crying😭
Husky, raspy voice of Ms KC was absolutely amazing ❤🎸🎶👍
Una voz icona y Trascendente en el Tiempo musical para siempre
Here that , good beat , luv it. Her voice is so amazing.... Can listen over and over...Thanks Kim!
Jeez, That croak in Kims voice when she sings the chorus is just perfect ! ! ! !.
Indeed it is.
It's magical 🎉❤😎
Some Rod Stewart goo in her throat i think
I still love her voice & this song
The tune, the synth, the voice, the chord progression, the emotion, the mix of country, rock and new wave - this is and will always be one of my Desert Island Discs. Cheers Kim.
Well spoken
I´m having a deesert while I read your coment...
brilliant comment
@@centinela24542 why do you eat sand?
Way before the internet, compact discs. I still have her cassette, up in the attic. Today's music is garbage. All computer generated. 😢
I am 75 and remember growing up watching Bette Davis reruns. The song goes a long way in capturing Bette Davis. But Kim Carnes has by far done a superlative performance of this song. I remember Kim's rendition of this song in the early 1980's
What an outstanding performer Kim Carnes is.
I grew up with it too. My sister looks just like her. Down to the shades.
Better than most music now days for sure
June 2024 and I'm here 🎉 who's with me? 🤩
I was 17 when this came out. It still is fantastic as it was back then. The best era ever!

Eu ouvindo-o
We need a Bette Davis of this generation. Not just with talent but with her personality. That said, Bette was one of a kind.
Nice to try😮
If you just close your eyes and listen to this song, it will take you back to early 80s. At a pizza parlor, with an old fashion music jukebox, two standing arcade games of Defender and Pac-Man side by side, pitchers of root beer and Coke next to your freshly ordered pizza. The polyurethane finished wooden table and bench with some wear and tear and some minor random graffiti on them. Perhaps a basketball game with Bird and Magic showing on the flickering TV. A worn poster of Empire Strikes Back on one wall and a new Rocky III poster on the opposite wall. You slowly eat your pizza because you just want to soak in the moment and not go back home to study for tomorrow's history test. All the while, your neck is stretch from watching the main door, wondering if your crush is going to walk in there anytime tonight.
Are you describing Teds Pizza in Rutland Vt? I guess every town has one but remember playing this on the juke box as an eight year old. All you described.
how the good times go by...
We never even realized how good we had it. I kind of feel sorry for kids today. Yes they have a lot of cool toys and the Internet is really cool and all that. But I think the miss the social interaction we had as kids. Sorry about the rant. Your comment just took me down memory lane while my kids were playing in the floor. Makes me wonder if they'll get to make memories like that or if it's will all just be in a text message
+Joshua Rector as a teen right now I wish I could go see what the 80s was like for just one day. The movies and music make the atmosphere seem so cool. I even wear Starter jackets and Air Jordan One's to pretend I'm in the 80s. 😂
+Ayk Joker You wouldn't want to come back. It was as great as you think it was. If you really want to see what it was like, at least in California, watch "Fast Times at Ridgemont High", if you haven't already. +Ric Flair, thank you for such an accurate depiction and killer memory!
This song defined my childhood. I distinctly remember waking up to this song after having eye surgery, this song playing on the radio. I had no idea whether I would be able to see at all, but this song playing in the background, comforted me, its light, memorable guitar line echoing through the post-operation room. As much as I tried to open my eyes, they remained shut, as if stitched shut. At only 8 years old, and unsure of whether I would see again, I clutched onto my mother's hand, trembling in fear. My mom reassured me that the operation was a success, and that I would see with time. As this song played on, I felt her move her hands to the throbbing beat of this song, and I once more willed open my eyes, a shadowy figure of my mom emerging from my small slit of vision. As this song ended, I felt a tear land on her hand -- and then Credence Clearwater Revival began to play.
I love this story omg and then credence what could be better. Miracles of good strong women and music.
Schöne Story 😢
Так же и у меня, запомнилось в детстве сильно
How's your vision now this brought tears to my eyes...
God bless you amigo mio
Stevie Nicks and Kim Carne's have the most beautiful voices I've ever listened to in my life.
But wait a minute, aren't we all supposed to sign the pact that says Taylor Swift is the greatest everything, everywhere? Isn't that part of the cult -- I mean, fan -- handbook?
Carnes. NO apostrophe.
I never cared for Stevie Nicks’ voice, but I love Kim Carnes. She sounds like a female Rod Stewart. 😊
@@MontagZoso And also like Bonnie Tyler!
There is something comforting about 80s synths.
Oooooo yeeeeeehawwww
Who else is hearing this masterpiece in 2024? The good old days. Just Golden ages.
Én igen
🇧🇷🍷🗿

Quite a few of us I imagine.
A mi me gusta mucho esta música lástima q hoy en día la música es mayormente un asco sin ofender a nadie es mi opinión. Personal
2024 Anyone? 😊
Yep!❤🔥
Nope.
Hermosa voz!!!❤
Here I am.

When I was pregnant with my son 20 years ago, every time this would come on the radio or I would play it, he would start dancing in my belly. After he was born it continued. Car seat dancing. Hanging onto the sofa dancing. Grabbing mom to dance. And of course as soon as he started talking he was singing it. Today it’s part of his play list along with some of the other best of the time. ❤
That is adorable. Love it.
I suppose your son son was born in 2002 just 4 years before the birth of my son, Back in 2003 I was constantly listening to this song but I was not pregnant obviously I'm a man
That baby had taste in music before he was born❤ Although I know now he is a man😂
Quick question, are you still pregnant? 😅🤣
Wow - love it ❤
Soy un hombre de 56 años de Sonora México. Y estas canciones las escuchaba cuando estaba en secundaria que tiempos. Pura nostalgia.
Mi milagros un México oyendo buena música porque la música mexicana es de lo peor que yo e escuchado después del reguetón prefiero reguetón que la música mexicana 🤮💩
Me hace derramar una lágrima pensando en mi futuro yo 😢
我是最爱这首歌的！
Y UD está sano o padece alguna enfermedad crónica la neta diga la neta
Although i was born in the mid 90's, something about the 80's music is so special. Wish I lived through this era
I was born in ‘74. Believe me when I say that it was fantastic. I really miss those years.
Music speaks to us in the language of eternity.
parece que sim.
There is something so...mesmerizing about that synth riff. I get so many different conflicting feelings from it: nostalgia, melancholy, and so many others.
Sampled here: ruclips.net/video/Vp2QHffJ0qY/видео.html&ab_channel=ArtzieMusic
and the raspy voice with it makes it perfect
Same here 🤗
Same. It made me wish to go back in the 90s and enjoy my childhood.
synth? I always thought it was an electric guitar. But I love it too, nostalgic 80's sound.
It's crazy how many people come back to this everyday.This song is legendary♪
mr beast?
So true
Bro you comment on every single video from Taylor swift to Justin Bieber to fucking acdc go away you bot
Lies again? BDS BDE
YEAH BOIIIIIIII
Bette Davis herself LOVED this song.
Anyone listening in 2024? This is another one of those early (for me) tunes that I remember very well. I didn't understand the song at the time, but it was Kim's vocals that were captivating - and at that age, I didn't have the words to describe it, I only know that it grabbed me and held me for the entire song. Still does. The 80s were truly a magic decade as far as music is concerned.

58 from 🏴love it ❤👍
Is always necessary the same question in all the videos?😏
Just another example of how BAD ASS!! the music from the 80's was and still is..!!
.... and always will be :)
DomBros. Tradition I'm with you, and I was born in 85
DomBros. Tradition Today's mainstream music will NEVER topple the 80's.
how about the music from the 60's and 70's, not to take away from the 80's since I had a lot of fun in college back in the 80's, but I grew up with the bands that inspired these bands
Lived them all and the 80s, HANDS DOWN, killed it.
Theres always something about the synthesisers in the beginning and throughout this song. It seems very nostalgic, anyone agree with me?
Yes
Yes. I'm currently trying to reproduce that wonderful synth sound in the intro.
Absolutely. It's literally haunts you. (in a good way).
You know any other songs like this?
no
This will always be my first adult song, 5th grade, 1981.
Appreciate this song SO MUCH MORE now than I did back in '81 (I was 10, focused heavily on 'Star Wars', 'Star Trek', James Bond and 'Raiders of the Lost Ark'). I am amazed that this song has never gotten old. It's WAY superior to most of the crap passing as today's music.
there's something spectacularly special about the sound of 80s!
It's because the synthesizer was so prevalent in the 80's. Furthermore, use of the synthesizer implies that the atmosphere is quiet, and who doesn't like peace and quiet? In a room full of noise one might still be able to hear a guitar being plucked in the corner but a synthesizer would be lost in the din. So when our mind hears a synthesizer it is happy because that means the atmosphere must be quiet enough for our ears to hear it.
80s music has all those bouncy tunes, even with a somewhat dark tone in the lyrics, while in the 90s it was all angst. Now that I said that, Jackie DeShannon recorded this in 1974 as more of an R&B take.
They had life tougher but were still hopeful....
True !
I think part of the magic is that music was defined by talent more than appearence. Now you just need to have a "look" and auto-tune will handle the rest. When you open up the field to even the "ugly" people, you are exposing yourself to a wider range of talent and potentially great music. When your looks are what matters most, the field narrows drastically.
"she's pure as new york snow" Love that line.
🤔
New York snow is some of the dirtiest snow I have ever seen. After a morning of traffic it's black.
Brian Koerperich cocaine, not actual snow
@@briankoerperich7571 For sure but MAYBE she's talking about upstate new york snow :-p
@@garrettdoucette3961 i thought same LMAO
Someone listening May 2024?
A classic "one-hit wonder", full of mystery and impish intra-word rhymes. A hard act to follow.
The only other song I know that mentions Bette Davis is the Kinks masterpiece about Hollywood Boulevard.
Until I die.
@@drewbgood it is magnificent mf!!!!
I do.

If you are reading this, I wish you a wonderful day, full of little moments of joy :)
Let's enjoy these soothing sounds together

This was my dad's favorite song. I used to play it for him all the time on my record player. He died a little over 2 months ago. I miss you dad and will always think of you when I hear this song.
that's so touching, RIP
I pray God gives you the strength and courage to bear the lost of your dad...

Ohh sí !!!!

@@Camilita1788 foarte frumos!!! 🤗
Agreed
Very nostalgic. Many memories..
we had the BEST MUSIC in our GENARATION (ROCK ON !)
We did xxx
Yes we did
:) ❤❤❤
As a GEN Z individual I agree.
This beautiful spirit has 1 amazing voice ❤
No autotune! No mimicking! No pretentiousness! Just Pure Raw Genious! Pure Awesomeness! I was there back in the early 80’s witnessing this timeless classic reaching the stardom!
You’re kidding, right? This is about as over-produced as song can be and not sound like a robot singing.
I am an old Boomer now...By the end of the 1970s, I had pretty much given up on popular music, having been so immersed in the fabulous 1960s, and early 1970s music explosion...But when MTV showed up, I began to appreciate such masterful artists as this fine, talented woman!...A voice almost like Rod Stewart, looks like a supermodel, and incorporating very infectious Synthethiser riffing!...She deserved to be a major force in the ensuing decades. Her career behind the music scenes is very interesting. I admire this woman very much!
She got Larry David eyes
Nothing can really beat the 80s ❤️
I will never regret turning 50 this year, because i had the most beautuful priveledge to be an 80's kid. I wouldnt trade it for the world.
What’s happened to the world?
I agree
Best teen movies were also made in 80s
Это точно!
70 and 80'S music THE BEST
80 jahre music wönderfüll❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Here after Ethel Cain 💖
NOTHING BEATS THE 80'S
Agree! 👍🏼
nothing!
I lived every second of the 80s, and agree - it was the best.
So glad I was born 2//21/80 although I am honored to be born then I wish it was a few decades earlier 😂
Yes broooooo
I was wearing my headphones playing the drums and had some music playing on the computer. I wasn't listening to it, just had it on in the corner. Heard some melody that bled through my headphones that instantly reminded me of this song. Took some help online to remember the song. Earliest memories of being alive just come flooding back. What a great song. Wish I could experience those times again, to feel the love of my family when were all closer, living in the same house and not out of the nest yet.
Can we bring this back? This feeling? This music? This vibe. The world needs more of this
Nope, today's music has to be about pandering and nothing else.
Beautiful Kim Karnes
No we can't
Just not her voice…worst singer I have ever heard.
Only in are hearyd and memories, unfortunately it will never be the same. Just be glad we was there to know how things were in that spectacular Era.
Today 05/05/2024 at 12 am. I am listening Bette Davis Eyes Song. And exatly From Tuscany Italy🇮🇹❤️🌷
Tuscany, Italy! You couldn't live in a better place! I once lived in a small town close to Treviso in the Veneto chiamato Conegliano, anche vicino a Vittorio Veneto alle base delle Dolomiti.
I grew up on a beach (Laguna beach, CA) above which Bette Davis had built a large, beautiful home. My mother was the manager of our local theater in which Bette Davis would sometimes act during the summer for free ( the season of "summer stock").
Hai un buon senso auditivo, pure a me piace questa musica ed anche la musica degli anni 80s .
Saluti dal Perù .
The most beautiful woman I have ever seen kim carns
Come to SOUTH AFRICA. Then lets see if you still make that reckless remark.😂
This song takes me to a time I never lived through but wish I did...
I am fortunate enough to have been a teenager in the 80's. I remember listening to this song on the radio when it was climbing the charts. I had no clue that it was going to be a classic.
So relatable
@wude I’d do ANYTHING to visit it no matter how weird!!! Give me Reagan, give me Cyndi lauper give me JANE FONDA dance videos
I lived thru it. I wish you did too. Blows today away.
@@JustCallMeKen 💋💨 sure does !
Quote from the keyboardist: "Anyway, we cut ‘Bette Davis Eyes’ totally live at Record One: every note, the percussion, even the [electronic] Synare and Kim's vocals; there was never an overdub. I think we did three takes and the one we used was take one."
This song sounds so incredibly sublime and the fact that it was recorded live on the first take makes this even more amazing.
Kim says it was take 2
The great Bill Cuomo on the Prophet Synthesizer
Sounds fantastic and perfect from beginning to end!
One of those timeless tunes!
To the person that reads this, I ask the Lord to bless them and their family, to cure them of every sickness and pain, to fill their emptiness with love joy and peace, to rebuke the enemy from their lives. " ASK JESUS TO COME INTO YOUR HEART AND SAVE YOU, AND TO FORGIVE YOU OF YOUR SINS, FOR WE GIVE THANKS AND GLORY TO THE LORD. IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS CHRIST AMEN!
I had a crush on a girl once, every time I heard this song, it reminded me of her. I guess that's why love songs are eternal, they never get old.
Beautifully said!!!❤❤❤
"She's got Bette Davis Eyes" means she's a femme fatale who's out to ruin a man for revenge, money or both through seduction, abuse, deception and manipulation
Bette Davis is known for these roles
I had too and I was 17 and had an crush to my college class mate... and a girl too if someone wonders:P
Hope you guys meet again
I had a crush on a girl too and this was our song... 9 months later you were born. It must be the genetics...
One of my favorite songs from the 80s.
mine too
See... us cowboys got a sensitive side , I love this song too.
@@Contakumein super Song
Kim Carns ist oder war wundervoll
I love music from the 80's, it just never gets old. It always puts you in the mood for a good dance and lifts your spirits. Definitely better than music they have now, no doubt !
Here in April of 2024 and I was really surprised to see all the other people here in 2024 too. I expected to see some but there are a lot of people here in 2024. Was this song recently featured in something and I am unaware of it? I remember when this came out and it's a fantastic song imo. I am happy to see it is still receiving so much love years later
Ótima música 🎶🎶🎶 época de ouro 🙌🖐👊
@@fabiogabrielliantonio7437The Netflix series The Tourist
The first time I heard this son as a teen I fell instantly in love with it. Kim's husky melodic voice is like a cool breeze.
Something about this song makes me sad. Anytime I hear it I miss my Mom and other family members that passed on. I really wish they were here.
Me too man, I really miss those days. My daddy and momma took me to South Dakota 2 times a year, and when I hear this song it reminds me of those times when my family was all together as one.
GregJoseph1978 sorry for your family lost there's something strange about death it.like you know the person died and never comes back but you hope it a day when the dead person appear all. out of the blue like nothing really happen I'm 46 and death still kinda scares me
+GregJoseph" Please accept my condolences.
This broke my heart, I’m sorry for your losses
Sorry dude. I lost my dad when I was 21. That was 83. Then my first wife and I split in 85. Then though I met the love of my life. So the 80s bring back some bittersweet memories. Oh and my first wife looked like Kim Carnes.
In Tribute to one of the greatest actresses who have ever existed..
Mais alguém aqui ouvindo em 2024 ?
Just turned 90 and still love this song.
I turned 60, and was 21 when it came out... Hypnotizing tune!
Every music fan loves that song, no matter what age
For real? 90? Tell me something I'd never consider
So you was 51 when this song got released. Is that what you credit your longevity to Sir? Never letting yourself get mentally old and embarrassing new stuff?
@@tristanthomas5006 It's literally all luck. You can be as healthy and physically/mentally active all you want, but anyone's life can be over at any time. Some of the healthiest people in the world just keel over and die. Some of the unhealthiest people live to be 100. Just live your life as you want to.
one of the longest charting #1 hits of all time FOR A REASON.
U better believe it!!
In my case, I find this hit to be erotically hypnotic for some reason. Guess that could explain why it's one of the longest charting #1 hits of all time for that reason.
Saying hello to all in 2024 hoping in a next few years from now someone will be reading this comment while listening to this super song! ❤
Am listening to it now
BLESS YOU!AMEN AMEN AMEN
This song & performance never got its due. Iconic in every way.
it won song of the year!!!

Her hair is harlow gold,
Her lips sweet surprise
Her hands are never cold
She's got bette davis eyes
She'll turn her music on
You won't have to think twice
She's pure as new york snow
She got bette davis eyes
And she'll tease you
She'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious
And she knows just what it
Takes to make a pro blush
She got greta garbo stand off sighs,
She's got bette davis eyes
She'll let you take her home
It whets her appetite
She'll lay you on her throne
She got bette davis eyes
She'll take a tumble on you
Roll you like you were dice
Until you come out blue
She's got bette davis eyes
She'll expose you
When she snows you
Off your feet with the crumbs she throws you
She's ferocious
And she knows just what it
Takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy,
She's got bette davis eyes
And she'll tease you
She'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious
And she knows just what it
Takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy,
She's got bette davis eyes.
Thank you for the lyrics here!
Thanks so much
Thanks.. was singing in my own words all these years until I saw this❤
Snows u?? Cool girl
This song is timeless, it could have been written at anytime in the last 80 years and have the same effect, PRICELESS
Not true

Who else came from the Ethel Cain cover?
A magical, timeless song and performance. What a vocal! As a little boy, I grew up about five houses up the street from Betty Davis's Mansion at Woods Cove beach, Laguna Beach, California. My mother ran the local theater, and Betty Davis would sometimes act during what was called, summer stock. The weird thing was that everyone said my mother had Bette Davis eyes. So true.
Kim Carnes has hypnotic voice
youtube mp4
i was a kid but this is the first time i remember being attracted to a female voice
ZISSIS I has a best voice and she's very beautiful woman
@@12butt34 her voice is Angelic
This song is close to my heart. It reminds me of my mom, and our long drives. She is gone now, but this song was her anthem. When I hear this song I can see her in the front seat of her beloved 1979 Z28. I miss her.
My mom had a 77 1/2 Z28 and she used to play this and god forbid blondie.
Holy cow! Someone told me back then I looked like Kim...I DID!!!
This song can continue to accumulate years of antiquity and will continue to sound a thousand times better than any song of today.
i agree with you music sucks now adays
Life sucks nowadays lol
It's like a great wine
Facts.. 80s was golden
Especially Ed sheeran lol

Beautiful music present!👈😍😍
Such a beautiful lady and what a fantastic song. Kim sits at the top of my list of female singers - with Bonnie Tyler and Sylvia.
I worked, back in the 80's and early 90's, with a classmate of Kim's.
I wasn’t born until 93 but I was raised on all 80s music I’m now about to be 31 an all I listen to is rock n roll and 80s hair bands and I love this song
❤😂❤
А кто делал на них ремиксы из хаус диджеев?
Просто проигрыш очень часто слышен у других
Just Awesome. Wonderful parents. Go back to the 60's and 70's and hear what it's all about.
the synths... are...so...freakin...perfect 😫
I couldn't agree more. Love the synths in this song
For real
Add the chorused guitars
at least a decade ahead of its time!
That 80's sound in (march 1981) Impressive.
I just love how she’s roaring into the mic yet it still sounds like a smoky whisper with a “secret “❤

This song always makes me want to cry.Because listening to her, I recall all the joyful and happy moments of my life!
Come on bro now I’m sad,
Same
I'm only 19 and I have to cry so much. I cry for moments I never experienced in this life. It's like I'm crying for a life I lived before.

The production. The voice. Timeless. In 400 years this song will still be appreciated.

An absolutely perfect pop song.

A very well constructed song. Everything clicks. Even the video.

It's the voice, the music, and the lyrics that make this an amazing song.
I believe that 100 years from now, people will still be listening to this song.
If they have any taste and sense of the cool...
This song will far outlive me, timestamp 6th April 2024.(I'm 44 at time of writing)
Sometimes there is a certain heartache to be had when reminiscing, especially to this timeless classic. I remember all my old friends who I have not seen in decades. Where are they now, what are they doing, how did their lives turn out? This is a very beautiful song and I would not have it any other way.
Hi my friend I say the same thing all the time..know why?because I compare our beloved days back then to now..and guess??there is no comparison..we had been blessed with all with talent that took a year or more writing music or train there voice for years now you can run a computer and have a shit voice and no talent that’s award winning..the fun we had the kids in playgrounds..knowing family outings suppers and just hanging out together..all the I love you’s and all the awesome tv shows variety shows and everything just about on tv and the silver screen..kids that had respect for parents and teachers until some bullshit political correctness allows the old wrong be today’s right and and today’s right to be definitive wrong for yesterday..that’s what the fk is wrong!purposely and deliberately to turn our youths brains into obedient duck shit no lies here is truth in nutshell
Btw, the song "Reminiscing", by The Little River Band, is also good; just remembered, when you used the word, lol.
This song is such a masterpiece.. time passes by so quickly, but we always remember those fond beautiful memories.. the ones of happiness and purirty
si a mi me paso lo mismo con mi señora siempre escuchabamos este tema y hacíamos el dulce amor toda la noche
Her voice is effortlessly unique.
I can't believe that this song is now 41 years old!!

This is one of those songs that makes me want to play this on vinyl, turn the lights off, light some candles, pour myself a glass of bourbon and chill on the couch while letting the heavy atmosphere of the song envelop me. Sounds like an ideal evening to spend with myself and re-center. Anyone else enjoy being solitary?
LOVE BEING SOLITARY. Best thing Corona gave the world.
This is one of those songs that makes me want to toss myself down a set of stairs, douse myself with gasoline, light some matches, pour myself a glass of bourbon and cry in terror while the heavy atmosphere of the song suffocates me...
@@darrylu.4358 lmao! AND STUFF A TURKEY
I know what you mean. Turn up both the BASS and the TREBLE knobs; have it blasting out; in your own world imagining your first kiss. AND THEN....Mother's voice breaks in...have you don't your homework? DInner is nearly ready. Walk the dog,......and your sports kit won't get washed on it's own - it will stink of teenager.
Keep dancing Tom. Don't get old.
bet you
