You can't beat the positivity of an 80's song. Everything is cheerful and hopeful. Listening to this song lets me forget how utterly miserable I was in high school at the time.
Yea, exactly I was miserable in high school then too,but like Dad said. They were the best of times,and we arrived to be the best we could at everything we did
To quote a much earlier 80s hit song from the era I was still at school in: "Ooh what fun we had,but at the time it seemed so bad"! I was lucky with the schools I went to,though - the standards were good and the teachers at secondary (high) school were easy-going compared to what most of my peers experienced!
@@mcclift9451 my mother would say if I said I didn't want to go to school " Enjoy school because when you are older, you will give anything for one day back in school. She was 100% right. We kinda took it gor granted..
The year 1987 was literally THE WORST year of my life (it was during my college years). Too long and complex to explain here but suffice to say that during that whole summer I was one step away from suicide (fortunately, I never considered taking it) and during that entire year I was within five steps of suicide. (It does not help that the whole world thinks that that was a golden year in a golden decade--which both were not). This song was one of only two things (along with a three-day family trip) that prevented that year from being an absolute total dead loss and is the only song from that year I can now listen to. Partially it is because, like you said, it is an upbeat and cheerful song. Partially it is because to me it actually sounds like a 1980s cover of a 1970s song (which is the music era I prefer to listen to).
I'm a 62 year young black man! But that don't really matter! The first time I saw them was when MTV first started! I liked her voice and that horn Riff!!!
@Mr.Quintin1959: We're about the same age. I know a lot of "our People" in the states anyway, didn't get it at that time, but I always really enjoyed a lot of the SOS catalogue, and thanks to CD and MP3 and streaming technologies, have never stopped playing it over the years, or had to deal with the ravages of time and replays on old vinyl. A lot of SOS songs were actually deeper and more melancholy than the music lets on, but still enjoyable. In that vein, I recommend listening to "Afterhours" and the both the vocal and instrumental versions of "Forever Blue."
I battled a very aggressive form of breast cancer in 2012 at age 40. I was able to beat it and remain cancer free for 12 years. Annual mammogram came back normal today. I survived 16 rounds of strong chemotherapy, painful surgery, then 6 weeks of radiation. Some days were so hard, but I held on and kept fighting. I am here today through God's grace. This song is so beautiful and brought me to tears. Life is a gift ❤❤❤
It's 2022 and if a song makes you feel great and tells your story it's timeless. I'm 64 and I feel like doing something new and great . I need to hear this song everyday.
2025???? Caramba!!! O tempo já dispara de forma vertiginosa e tu já pensa que está um ano antecipado?! Time is already skyrocketing and you already think it's a year early?!
In the late 80's I was introduced to Corinne in a bar in Manchester, she was that beautiful that I could barely form a cohesive sentence. To this day it is still the only time i've been lost for words. God, I miss the 80's so much.
I was eight years old when I heard this song. It was the winter around Christmas. My sister's boyfriend and his brother and friend came over to take us shopping. I got nothing, but I never forgot that memory. This song stuck to me. Every time I hear it, it brings me back to a time when I was happy. I am 46 now, I can't believe how fast life goes by.
Happiness is a state of mind, you’re never too old to find your happiness. Life does goes fast that’s why it is important to live our life to the fullest.
The musical arrangement and vocals of this track really stood out for me back in the day when it was released. Smooth, sophisticated and classy. This track has really stood the test of time and is just a special today some 36 years later
There is a fully live multiplayer cover with Amy Bird on RUclips. It made me appreciate just how much is going on in this song, and how complex the arrangement is. . It's no wonder it is a classic.
Felt good and suddenly this song popped in my head this morning, I was 16 in '87, music like this was everywhere, we took for granted what we had, only now I realise how positive and happy this era of music was, it was awesome!

@@timmullens9479 I thought that it might be a synth, But there is a live performance where there are two horns playing that riff it seems. (London 2001). If it's not horns it still sounds awesome though! 😆
Even though we all need positivity these days, for the things to be positive there have to be fewer things happening around us and in the world. Videos like this capture life impressions. Not real life.
@@StopFearI did not get your point. However, these type of "impressions" as you mentioned is what makes life better. There are and there will always be fewer "necessary" material things around us, but the non material things like these are what makes life worth living
She said. in an interview, that she modeled but wanted sing and was told “models don’t sing” Then when she said she sang was told “singers don’t model” ergo her song break out!
I’m 65, takes me back to the good old days of the 80’s. Young, fit, and carefree. As long as I had a few £ in my pocket to keep my old banger on the road I was happy. Not like today, too much to worry about.
I just love this band. The joyful spirit shown by Ms. Corinne Drewery is so contagious, anyone would love to go back to those days. I JUST LOVE THE 80'S!!!
I remember seeing them perform this on one of the Saturday morning TV shows when it was a new hit,and all the group except Corinne being in boiler suits.
50 + year old crowd “ where ya at? ❤️This was my jam back when I was a mere teen. Always loved this song. It takes me back to those carefree days with not a care in the world!! I miss the good ole days. 🙄 How I wish I could go back to simpler times.🤷🏾♀️
She is as beautiful as she is kind and gracious. I remember chatting to her a few years ago after a concert in Japan, she was so down to earth and friendly as well as stunning. What a great combo!!
I didn't pay much attention to this song back in the 80s but I've rediscovered it lately. I never noticed that the lyrics are so uplifting and encouraging! What a great song.
You watch your gosh darn mouth, Gregory Griffin the Third, twice removed!! I will not allow my disgustingly gorgeous ex-girlfriend-in-law to be exposed to this display of... MADNESS. AbSoLUtE MADNESS
Reached number 4 in November 1986. Take My Breath Away by Berlin was number 1 at the time. Other songs in the Top 10 included Kim Wilde's cover of You Keep Me Hanging On,SAW poppets Mel & Kim's breakthrough smash Showing Out,The Final Countdown by Europe (which would go on to reach the very top),Living on a Prayer by Bon Jovi,Walk Like an Egyptian by the Bangles,Don't Give Up by Peter Gabriel & Kate Bush and Through the Barricades by Spandau Ballet.
Days ago I dreamed about this song that was part of my teenage years in the 80s and I ended up finding it. I had never seen the clip and it only brought me even more good feelings. Beautiful vocalist Corinne Drewery is now a friendly 61-year-old lady.
36 years ago I heard this song on the radio while driving from Fort Ord, California to Carmel Beach for a beach party ⛱️ . I'm still listening to it today...36 years later! Corinne, Andy, and Martin have created a song which is timeless... And Corinne's funny reactions and playful attitude during the video shoot makes this video fun to watch... Even all these years later! I hope to one day to get to see you guys in concert, but until then: Thank you for making one of the most memorable songs on the soundtrack of my life.
@@peterhjelmstad7959 I would do anything to turn back time and be there again... I'd like to at least go back for a weekend and visit Monterey and Carmel. Great memories.
This album, "It's Better to Travel" was one favorites in the late 80s, Every track is great! The joy and optimism of this song is what I associate with the 80s, along with the tragedy of AIDS. Upbeat music, ,especially current alternative bands, still keep me happy and energetic in my 70s. Music is life!
Yea it coulda been a great time to be alive, unfortunately the crack wars and the violence ruined it for many of us. I often wonder what kind of person I would have been had none of that happened. I remember watching reading rainbow and then there'd be a shootout right outside my window. Then there was the monster A.I.D S on the loose back then. Shit was scary because I lost 2 cousins to that shit. The music was on point tho.
I’m 20 ( born in 2001), I discovered this group 1 week ago after seeing their name in the comment section of a Basia video. I’m now listening to them non-stop, I will buy their albums on Amazon. ( I even followed them both on Instagram and Facebook lol. ) I really don’t understand why they’re not bigger in popularity, they are soooo underrated. Even if I really wish that I was alive and an adult at this time ( 1987-1989 ), I still consider myself lucky to know about them. It’s nice to see that they are still active, too. If one day they make a concert in France ( more specifically in Paris), I will make sure to be there.
HAHAH such a gem. I'm 21 too and actually, My dad used to play these at my birthday parties when I was little, and ahh such nostalgia and good vibes! Have an awesome day!
Keep the 80's alive my young friends. It's a huge catalog of music though. I grew up then and I still sometimes find new 80's songs I never heard back then. The 90's were phenomenal too as they built on the 80's in large part and took it to a new level, but there's still much to be appreciated about the 80's.
I battled a very aggressive form of breast cancer in 2012, Stage 2B, triple negative at age 40. I beat it and remain cancer free. The chemo, surgery, and radiation were so hard, but I survived. This is a beautiful song. Made me cry ❤❤❤❤
Why aren't there such great songs anymore today ??? Poor poor world ... But we have our good old CD's at home, right ? We love you Sister Girl for all of this !
80s British pop was so smooth, catchy and uplifting. The style council, fairground attraction, sade, swing out sister.. so many timelines 80s British pop songs.
It sure is. And a lot better than what passes for contemporary music today. It had style. It had elegance. Not like today. Today, there is no elegance to be found.
I hear you. The song withstood the test of time. Even recently I've heard this song playing on an over the air radio station in my area. I listen to over the air regularly.
I won't say how old I was, but to this day, I thoroughly enjoy a selection from the 1980s treasure trove of great songs-coherent lyrics and beautiful melodies. Nothing like this today.
Beautiful song and band. Recently I’ve been listening to Swing out sister quite often because I play this song for my sister every time I meet her. SOS are one my older sister’s favourite bands. She has Alzheimer’s since some years ago and even when she has problems with comunícate what she needs this song always brings her a big smile, joy and even dance every time I played it for her. That makes me always really happy to see her glad. 🙏🏼
At 64 years old now, I’m still listening. I bought the album (It’s Better To Travel) when it came out in 1987. I still have it. It come’s out for a spin every so often.
@@wilsondassumpcao2089 I couldn't find a song by Young Holt Unlimited that sounds like "Breakout." Swingout Sister did a song called, "Am I The Same Girl," that uses the same melody as "Soulful Strut" by Young Holt Unlimited. That song came out in 1992 on the SOS album, GET IN TOUCH WITH YOURSELF. Good music.
Corinne was a very naturally beautiful woman. I think she looked her most stunning in the "Am I the Same Girl" video, but she really looked great no matter what.
I had just turned 36 and landed in England in mid August of '86 to teach school for a year in Coventry on an exchange. This song debuted that September. Of all the great Brit pop songs that year this is the one I remember most as it was my break out of my culture and country. England is my second home now.

Another reason why the 80's was the best decade for music.
I always thought 2020s might bring back 1980s style music!
Songs of any genre could top the charts during that period
60's music is good too
Movies too
Stop smoking crack! 🤣
The 80s is one hell of a decade for music. Anyone listening to this classic tune in 2024?
Me its been in myhead I have to listen to it to get it out
Heard it for the first time in GTA 4 recently...
I am!
Swing out Sister were fab. I would go back to the 80s in a heartbeat..
I'm enjoying this classic, happy song in January of 2024. I'll come back to it again, and again. Timeless, joyful music. ☺️
The synth, the big bangles, the sewing machines. My mum, Cath, requested this at her bedside. She died 10th of January 2024. RIP Mum❤️
May she rest in peace
So sorry for your loss 💔 🙏
May your dear mother sing with the angels. Make a joyful noise unto heaven.
Ain't nobody ever gonna love ya like your mama

This was heard all over the place in 1986. It's still a great song in 2024.
Best song since 86
Todos los sitios.
True!!!!
Autumn 87 here in the states
It had hit the charts back in 1987.
Her smile lights up the room. Great short black hair ❤
lights up the universe too
It's certainly refreshing to revisit it with the last decade's obsession for very long balayaged hair with a loose wave.
Feminine beauty unlike today's women

Most def. A timeless beauty.

@@timmullens9479 I thought that it might be a synth, But there is a live performance where there are two horns playing that riff it seems. (London 2001). If it's not horns it still sounds awesome though! 😆
Such a great song. So positive.... stuff we need these days. Bring back so many memories of growing up 😊
Even though we all need positivity these days, for the things to be positive there have to be fewer things happening around us and in the world. Videos like this capture life impressions. Not real life.
@@StopFearI did not get your point. However, these type of "impressions" as you mentioned is what makes life better. There are and there will always be fewer "necessary" material things around us, but the non material things like these are what makes life worth living
She is utterly gorgeous, the song is a banger, and it is IMPOSSIBLE to watch this video without a big cheesy grin.
I wonder if Biasia wasn’t inspired by her
She said. in an interview, that she modeled but wanted sing and was told “models don’t sing” Then when she said she sang was told “singers don’t model” ergo her song break out!
I’m 65, takes me back to the good old days of the 80’s. Young, fit, and carefree. As long as I had a few £ in my pocket to keep my old banger on the road I was happy. Not like today, too much to worry about.
You got that right.
Agree
Entering my 50s. This song will always be a favorite from my teenage years.
Hang in there Mate, 62 and understand
Das kommt nicht wieder, unvergesslich /Feeling pur
This is really the perfect 80's pop song.
It was an international hit back in 1987.
@@plawson8577 I remember
You can’t be in a bad mood when listening to it. Instant smile kind of song
Back when popular things were popular because they were good.
yes you're right
I just love this band. The joyful spirit shown by Ms. Corinne Drewery is so contagious, anyone would love to go back to those days. I JUST LOVE THE 80'S!!!
I hear you man!!!👍👍 And I had and still have a crush on Corinne, and I'm probably not alone on that one!👍👍 From Ireland 🍀
I remember seeing them perform this on one of the Saturday morning TV shows when it was a new hit,and all the group except Corinne being in boiler suits.
This song is timeless because it makes me feel great it takes me away from all my struggles 🙏🙏
I totally agree.!!!!!

How stunning is the lead singer?? Simply wonderful and a fantastic vocalist!!
Corinne Drewery, pretty fine for a Brit. 🥹

This music video itself is proof of why the 80s is the best decade ever.
True. I was proud to have grown up and lived through it all in that decade.
Certainly true and correct

She is as beautiful as she is kind and gracious. I remember chatting to her a few years ago after a concert in Japan, she was so down to earth and friendly as well as stunning. What a great combo!!
She’s such a beautiful and classy lady . Her voice matches her beautiful timeless looks.

Man, this reminds me of being a kid. It was a huge hit!
Me too, I was nine, fun times #80sKid
Reached number 4 in November 1986. Take My Breath Away by Berlin was number 1 at the time. Other songs in the Top 10 included Kim Wilde's cover of You Keep Me Hanging On,SAW poppets Mel & Kim's breakthrough smash Showing Out,The Final Countdown by Europe (which would go on to reach the very top),Living on a Prayer by Bon Jovi,Walk Like an Egyptian by the Bangles,Don't Give Up by Peter Gabriel & Kate Bush and Through the Barricades by Spandau Ballet.

Even though I'm mainly a Jungle / DnB and House head, those are all classics! Nostalgia hits hard!
This was one of my favorite songs that came in 86. Still a great song when you're feeling down. A great pick me up song.
Maravillosa Diosa de los 80
I agree, party and school disco music for me.
1987 Internationally actually.
This is the true definition of sophistication: Classy and beautiful yet sweet, without being arrogant·

My gosh! My 80s life! Just hearing these lyrics as an adult! I 💯 percent needed this.
I'm in my mid 30s and this song has been stuck in my head for the last 20+ years. I couldn't remember the name of it, now I've found it!
Same here hahahah i took 16 years to found it since i see in a commercial
Days ago I dreamed about this song that was part of my teenage years in the 80s and I ended up finding it. I had never seen the clip and it only brought me even more good feelings. Beautiful vocalist Corinne Drewery is now a friendly 61-year-old lady.
@Fiona Mitchell you look younger than your age.
Feels good doesn't It. You should listen to their other songs as well. Forever Blue, Twilight World are pretty good. At least I think so.
I'm jealous of my cousins being teens back then. Me, literally an 80s baby.
36 years ago I heard this song on the radio while driving from Fort Ord, California to Carmel Beach for a beach party ⛱️ . I'm still listening to it today...36 years later! Corinne, Andy, and Martin have created a song which is timeless... And Corinne's funny reactions and playful attitude during the video shoot makes this video fun to watch... Even all these years later! I hope to one day to get to see you guys in concert, but until then: Thank you for making one of the most memorable songs on the soundtrack of my life.
Is Martin the guy with the shorter, darker hair??
@@toddbennett7157 Martin (Jackson... The drummer) is the guy with the longer blonde-ish hair)
I seem to remember the guys (but not cutie Corinne) dressed up in boiler suits when I saw them perform this on TV.
I remember Fort Ord. I was stationed across the bay at the Presidio. Beautiful area.
@@peterhjelmstad7959 I would do anything to turn back time and be there again... I'd like to at least go back for a weekend and visit Monterey and Carmel. Great memories.
This album, "It's Better to Travel" was one favorites in the late 80s, Every track is great! The joy and optimism of this song is what I associate with the 80s, along with the tragedy of AIDS. Upbeat music, ,especially current alternative bands, still keep me happy and energetic in my 70s. Music is life!
Yea it coulda been a great time to be alive, unfortunately the crack wars and the violence ruined it for many of us. I often wonder what kind of person I would have been had none of that happened. I remember watching reading rainbow and then there'd be a shootout right outside my window. Then there was the monster A.I.D S on the loose back then. Shit was scary because I lost 2 cousins to that shit. The music was on point tho.
It was only for a moment. But one of the best moments.😎

out of 2019 and drop back to the 80s!! Who is with me on that? Lol
same here.Im in the wong Generation.wah
If only we could go back!!!
Let's go!
In case you’re too young to have lived through the 80s, they were the best time in history for pure musical joy and inspiration.
ME!!😁😂
i’m 21 (born in 2000) and i discovered this song at a trivia night. what a gem i love 80s music
I'm 16 but turning 17 this August and I know this song because of the radio.
I'm 22 years old, I discovered this song through a cassette of my dad
I’m 20 ( born in 2001), I discovered this group 1 week ago after seeing their name in the comment section of a Basia video. I’m now listening to them non-stop, I will buy their albums on Amazon. ( I even followed them both on Instagram and Facebook lol. ) I really don’t understand why they’re not bigger in popularity, they are soooo underrated. Even if I really wish that I was alive and an adult at this time ( 1987-1989 ), I still consider myself lucky to know about them. It’s nice to see that they are still active, too. If one day they make a concert in France ( more specifically in Paris), I will make sure to be there.
HAHAH such a gem. I'm 21 too and actually, My dad used to play these at my birthday parties when I was little, and ahh such nostalgia and good vibes! Have an awesome day!
Keep the 80's alive my young friends. It's a huge catalog of music though. I grew up then and I still sometimes find new 80's songs I never heard back then. The 90's were phenomenal too as they built on the 80's in large part and took it to a new level, but there's still much to be appreciated about the 80's.
I battled a very aggressive form of breast cancer in 2012, Stage 2B, triple negative at age 40. I beat it and remain cancer free. The chemo, surgery, and radiation were so hard, but I survived. This is a beautiful song. Made me cry ❤❤❤❤
I'm glad you beat the odds ! I wish you nothing but health and happiness this song is a Timeless masterpiece!
This is such a positive, upbeat song and music video. No drugs, no sex, just friends having fun.
I agree with you because I am a qualified lesbian 😊
She's so gorgeous...
Kkjjjjj
Ive played this song every time I had a major test, interview, workout etc. This song takes makes me feel like I can conquer the world. Timeless
Why aren't there such great songs anymore today ??? Poor poor world ... But we have our good old CD's at home, right ? We love you Sister Girl for all of this !
One of the greatest hits of the 1980s. A unique and stylish singer. A great production. It makes me happy.
I am totally like listening to my 80's music in 2020 No other sound like this in the world
you go gurlfrand
not partially, but totally
Right. Nothing like it!
You would think they would stick with this sound since 80s is the best..don't care what anyone says. 70s is second.
I never tire of listening to this song and the great sound of this lady's voice, it's timeless!!! She's so talented in many ways including fashion.
80s British pop was so smooth, catchy and uplifting. The style council, fairground attraction, sade, swing out sister.. so many timelines 80s British pop songs.
@YvonneSanddrson-nx4hq: Even the names of the UK bands were cool.
Who is listening to this in 2024...I still.love this song. Such a happy song. ❤

It sure is. And a lot better than what passes for contemporary music today. It had style. It had elegance. Not like today. Today, there is no elegance to be found.

こんなに綺麗なシンガーが
こんなに素敵な曲を歌って

Still one of the best songs to come out of the 80s.
I feel privileged having grown up listening to music like this. Still the best now.🤩
The modulations in this tune are flawless. What a beautiful tune full of joy.
Omg I remember this song coming out fall of 1986. I was a freshman in high school. Good memories 🥰
I hear you. The song withstood the test of time. Even recently I've heard this song playing on an over the air radio station in my area. I listen to over the air regularly.
I won't say how old I was, but to this day, I thoroughly enjoy a selection from the 1980s treasure trove of great songs-coherent lyrics and beautiful melodies. Nothing like this today.
She was, and probably still is, seriously f'kin gorgeous.
Paul Jürgen-Romrig she is! Still looks the SAME-she still has the same hair cut and they still tour, mostly in Europe and Japan.
I challenge you both to a Duel to win her heart!
She is, she was at my cousins wedding today she’s amazing!
@bill lyons that made me burst out laughing. I like your sense of humor
Love her long time
Beautiful song and band. Recently I’ve been listening to Swing out sister quite often because I play this song for my sister every time I meet her. SOS are one my older sister’s favourite bands. She has Alzheimer’s since some years ago and even when she has problems with comunícate what she needs this song always brings her a big smile, joy and even dance every time I played it for her. That makes me always really happy to see her glad. 🙏🏼
At 64 years old now, I’m still listening. I bought the album (It’s Better To Travel) when it came out in 1987. I still have it. It come’s out for a spin every so often.
Me too....I absolutely loved the 80s....🎉
Me too!
I was listening to this song when I was 21 now I'm 56 it's still one of the Greatest Songs of the 80s .You Go Girl Swing Out Sister .😊😊😊
Corinne's voice and singing style is so pleasant. A great song from 1987, passing along good vibes and a positive attitude.
The song is actually from 1968, this is their version the original was recorded in 1968 by a band called Young Holt Unlimeted.
@@wilsondassumpcao2089 I couldn't find a song by Young Holt Unlimited that sounds like "Breakout." Swingout Sister did a song called, "Am I The Same Girl," that uses the same melody as "Soulful Strut" by Young Holt Unlimited. That song came out in 1992 on the SOS album, GET IN TOUCH WITH YOURSELF. Good music.
I was 17 then, no stress, no fears, full of life, energy and enthusiasm for the future.
Me too!
Was in my late 20s, newly married, professional career getting off the ground and life was good!

I agree Mike.
Corinne was a very naturally beautiful woman. I think she looked her most stunning in the "Am I the Same Girl" video, but she really looked great no matter what.
Look at how much she's smiling !!
What a difference to today, most women either look bored, aggressive or both.
Ha, ha!!
@@euanelliott8068 : Yeah, her big, megawatt smile really makes it. 😀
This song just makes me happy especially in really crappy parts of life. Never give up, just breakout!

This song is like a big, comforting hug from someone you really like. I don't know what else to say.
I had just turned 36 and landed in England in mid August of '86 to teach school for a year in Coventry on an exchange. This song debuted that September. Of all the great Brit pop songs that year this is the one I remember most as it was my break out of my culture and country. England is my second home now.
