54 year old guy here. I remember loving this back in the 80s on MTV. Alan Parsons Project is an incredible group and whoever made this video is a genius as well
Why does every other person in this comments log here feel the need to state their age? I mean, does anyone really care about THAT?
Yes@@viceversar-do1cn
Same age .Same 80s. Same song. fun times man fun times.
@@viceversar-do1cn You'd only understand if you were 14 in '84
@@dvdfrnzwbr Well, I don't believe that I've stated here what my age was.
one of the best things about 50 years old,is the fact that i lived my teenage years in the 80's that is priceless and I am grateful !!!
Here here, im 53.
Yeah, 52 São Paulo Brazil and so grateful for the 80’s.
@@Pedroism aaaa
I agree 100%.
A grateful 51
My Mom (81 yrs old) just passed away a little over a month ago and she loved this song! RIP Mom! Love, your son!
Sorry for your loss
@@SheriLynNut thanks. I appreciate it.
So sorry ❤
@@sarahjamieson3159 thank you
Sorry for your loss. What a nice memory for you to have of her.
2024 somebody...
Every Sunday ,is old school Sundays here in South Africa this is part of my list😅

Love the sax in this song. 80’s was great for that. You just don’t hear that in songs these days.
🎉
Was just singing this about an hour ago driving home from attorneys signed divorce papers 35 years down the drain. 😢
When I was a kid, I thought this was one of the prettiest most melodic songs I had ever heard. I'm 43 and I still feel the same
Same here....from Holland
Some melodies take hold of our minds and hearts for ever...
Same here, from Argentina
@@johnnyw.8811 one of my all time favorites.
Same! 43 as well, this song is so beautiful and nostalgic for me.. Reminds me of happier, better times.
While everyone in the 80's was debating whether Thriller by Michael Jackson or Take On Me by A-ha was the best music video, this gem totally slipped under the radar. Love it. More people should talk about this.
Would also suggest you to watch Hunting High And Low and Train of Thoughts by A Ha. Very good music video as well.
I've been familiar with this forever, and I was barely 7-8 when this was on the radio, so I have to doubt this went unnoticed. We're talking southern Europe, Spain to be precise, on top of that, so... Of course, no match in popularity with Michael Jackson at that point, but what could compete with Thriller era Jackson?
a good video with a lame song is no big deal
ABSOLUTELY!
@@ilsy74 lame song. Really? Did you even bother listening to the lyrics before you jump to criticize?
As an 80s kid, this is one of the greatest songs and music videos ever, imo.
i was going through the same sentiments as you.
Yeah I love the 80s, fantastic music, and fantastic movies, and video games, and much more.
I wish I could go back in time, and do it all over again.
@@AmigaWolf You and Eddie Money😊 Me too.
@@cynthiatrombetta4655 Yeah, Eddie Money - Take Me Home Tonight/Be My Baby is a great song.😀
@@AmigaWolf "I Wanna Go Back" is another great one. 👍
Eric Woolfson was a major, major talent! Greatly missed. RIP
Your project was a success
Mr. Parsons
Lol
Richard Oki indeed!
Has been with me, since Tales of Mystery........ .
That project saved lives , mine included
yes
I am 53 and it still touches my heart.Brings back good memories of happy times as a youngster.
Same here. August 69. Best life ever!! 🎉

I am 60. This is, by far, my favorite group of all time. I grew up with them in the 70’s and 80’s. Their sound never gets old...even though I am now.
That's not old but only Gen Z would think that we are.
@@dontbeasucka.61Gen X? Lol
Girl, I'm old enough to know that this song is late in the APP catalog, and it's great. But I'm from the Edgar Allen Poe "Tales of Mystery and Imagination" era of the 1970s. Look it up. Peace.
I'm 45. As a kid, I only knew Eye in the Sky. But lately I have been snapping up APP vinyl when I can find it. The Turn of a Friendly Card and I Robot are among my most played albums now.
Gran grupo 🥰 quien no pasó por una situación así 😮 que tiempos aquellos!!! 2023 ❤
My mom passed away 2-9-12..this was one of her favorite songs...8 years later I'm sitting here crying and missing her
I'm with you..Bless you. 🙏
I know the feeling. Sending you a prayers and strength.🙏
She'll always be with you...
But Artie Lange's mom is alive. Wah.
@@beatlejim64 surely She's still listening.......and looking at You!!!♥️
I'm 49 yrs old and this song still touches my heart as it did when I was child growing up in the 80's. They simply don't make musicians this anymore.
Yo tambien soy del 72,y estoy totalmente de acuerdo contigo..ya no se hace musica asi..esta melodia hace que me emocione..un saludo desde Barcelona😉
@@davidmartinlopez9524 From one David to another, we agree. Wishing you the best, friend.

They do. They just don't get airplay.
Even in Soviet Union - we knew this song!

Im 19 and the algorithm has truthfully recommended me what I actually like to hear and see rather than the current situation of music
Fight the fight current music is trash 🗑️ real music will always listen through
Find someone old like me to hang out with 😉 We can introduce you to music that would blow you away. Music from just the 70’s-early 80’s was (I can’t even find the words). Even the algorithms here won’t bring up the really obscure but amazing music. Here’s a taste, tell me what you think…
Planet P - Why Me?
Peter Shilling - Major Tom
INXS - Don’t Change
The Tubes - Talk To Ya Later
You’re welcome 😉
The music of the 80's, nothing compares.
Who's listening in 2021? Such a great song and group! R.I.P. Eric Woolfson.

August 2021..I love This song, This Band... 😍😍😍
I wished Alan & Eric did reunite before Eric's passing...
true
the power of music to transport us back to the time when we were happy.
With music I am always happy. This music is so touching
So very true...
Definitely 👍
@@charlenejones3588 i AM happy. Music is just the top of the cream
Yes very true
A long track that shows
The genius of the '80s.
Thank you for this
great decade and this music.
Long track? Is this a typo? It's not even 4 minutes.
Long? 😂
This song and this video have aged like a fine wine, one of the best of the eighties.
The saxophone solo in this is gorgeous.
So sad that sax solos went out of style!
@@davidc9396 I know, they just make everything sound better :)
YES! 😭😭😭😭😭💖💖💖💖💖🎷🎷🎷🎷🎷
The '80s were a great decade for sax players. They got a lot of work back then.
Facts
Alan understands the importance of a saxophone solo!
Saxophone; a rare musical instrument hardly ever used now with modern 2023 music.
its David Sanborn, Erny Watts?, please elight me
@@jorgebutrongalindo8047It's Mel Collins
If you believe in the power of magic
I can change your mind
And if you need to belive in someone
Turn and look behind
When we were living in a dream world
Clouds got in the way
We gave it up in a moment of madness
And threw it all away
Don't answer me, don't break the silence
Don't let me win
Don't answer me, stay on your island
Don't let me in
Run away and hide from everyone...
Can you change the things we've said and done?
If you belive in the power of magic
It's all a fantasy
So if you need to belive in someone
Just pretend it's me
It ain't enough that we meet as strangers
I can't set you free
So will you turn your back forever
On what you mean to me?
Don't answer me, don't break the silence
Don't let me win
Don't answer me, stay on your island
Don't let me in
Run away and hide from everyone...
Can you change the things we've said and done?
Don't answer me, don't break the silence
Don't let me win
Don't answer me, stay on your island
Don't let me in
Run away and hide from everyone...
Don't answer me, don't break the silence
Don't let me win
Don't answer me, stay on your island
Don't let me in
Can you change the things we've said and done?
Don't answer me, don't break the silence
Don't let me win
Don't answer me, stay on your island
Don't let me in...
1983...I was 20, listening to it ever since. Still brings a tear to my eye...one of the Best.
Ｍe too.This is really great song ❗️
I was 16 . I miss the 80's the way music made you feel took you for a ride in your mind .It had depth and some went deep and some took you high" . Today its really garbage music doesn't compare, it doesn't do the magical feelings these songs do." Rap is just blabbering with a beat 👎 . These kids today will never have that experience. They will never know what they've missed. I wish they could of been there."
I was 11 still remember great song
i was 18 and 19 then...I thought that it was released in '84. Yes, it's a tear-jerker, isn't it?
Thirteeen then
and still to this day
one of my top favorite song
and video ever made ..
So much emotion and style
the 3 minutes and 53 seconds can’t contain it’s Magic
March, 23. I want my 80’s back.
That's why we have YOU TUBE.
we all do!!!
Feb, 24. I want my 80's back.
23 march
That’s my birthday n I agree!
I was born in 1977, from Germany and grew up with music. Music still remains a part of me today. I love the music of the Parsons Project ❤.
Who would care?
Alan Parsons was and always will be a genius musician,sound engineer and composer. His work with The Beatles and Pink Floyd already made him a legend, but his work throughout the 80s definitely cemented that title.
The real genius was Eric Woolfson
This melody always haunted me since i was a kid, and i didn't know the name of the song, just found it, the chills are just ridiculous lol wow, i love it.
CarpathianCarl It's amazing to me that pretty much the same thing happened to you with this song, i just had flashbacks of the cartoon girl in the video, and yes the hook and melody, it's so weird that this song just stuck with me like that, but had no clue of its name or the artist. I remember when "Runaway Train" by Soul Asylum came out in the early 90's and i just thought "kinda sounds like that song" lol, little did i know i would find out what the hell that melody stuck in my head since forever was like more than 20 years later, pretty much by accident. Thanks for sharing this weird obsession with me, cheers! :)
***** I love this song and "Runaway Train" as well!
***** I was heading into my teens when this was released. It brings back some really bad memories of shit I had to put up with back then, but I still love the song to death.
***** I had the same experience! Going through all my teens with this vague haunting melody and flashes of the music video imagery. I tried for nearly a decade to find this song again, sounding like an absolutely insane person when bringing this up to everyone and shooting down every song/music video they were convinced was the one I was thinking of. And of course, when I finally rediscover it.. it's by complete accident! Figures. :) So glad to know it again though...
Kim Gee LOL that's awesome and indeed the same experience, and i bet this melody ALWAYS just popped up in your head randomly at any given moment, makes you wonder what kind of sorcery or magic earworm these guys put into this song to haunt a bunch of us like that, even though we were far too young when it came out. I'm just glad i was exposed to this kind of music so early in my life :)
1984...what a year....totally 80s it will never be another era like this one.
The Seventies were better
@@Canalboyable ~ Correct! The 80s surely offered some good music, you had to seek it out a bit more, but for overall creativity, diversity, musicianship, and abundance, the 70s win out! It's mostly a time of birth thing. People who came of age in the 80s think it was the best. They wanted their own thing.
The 70’s were better. There is no better era for music. This is a great song though. Always loved the APP.
Best year ever. I was 10. 😥
actually, 1984 was the best year of the 80's. You can find at least 100 great songs in this year.
Man, all these years later and this song still knocks me out. Brilliant video as well.
I'm 54 years old and grateful that I got to grow up in a time as a teenager when life was simple enough and this song always brings me back to the reality to appreciate the moments that we have now and when being that young then when you've taken things for granted as most usually do. Well that's life and we live and grow and hopefully learn to appreciate the finer things in life that really matter. I personally have failed many times and have succeeded in a few things, but that's life and just the way it is. I wish for everyone good years to come... ✌️🙂
it just reminds me of my u.s. government MK harassment. heterodyning isn't just a party trick. oj simpson was a cover for mkultra chld rape verdict. west papua is secret u.s. genocide 63 years for world's biggest goldmine.
if you wanna do something about that better future for folks stuff there ya go
Whoever did the animation in this 1940s style video couldn't have done better !! This was a big MTV hit and I'm glad I taped it back in 1984 along with many others.
2 words, Dick Tracy!!!!
The sun in your eyes, make some of the lies worth believing...
@@MyNameIsUnavailable wrong song
@@logicalspark3496 Obviously, just bonding with another APP fan... (by the way APP means ALAN PARSONS PROJECT, ill explain that too so you don't get confused)
It was comic book artist Mike Kaluta
I am 63 years old now....this song takes me back to my "young-age".....excellent song
La busqué hasta cansarme pues no sé Inglés y no sabía el nombre. Hoy abro RUclips y acá está 😢 definitivamente el celular me escuchó. Amo esta canción, la escucho en la radio pero nunca dicen su título ❤❤❤ amo Alan Parsons. Agosto 2023, soy una persona de 66 años que adora la música de los 80. Saludos a todos ❤
Super tune that was released this month in 1984. The song/video brings back so many memories!
Rest in peace, Eric Wolfson.
Yeah, he's missed deeply.
He was essential to The Alan Parsons Project. Seriously, the majority of their hit songs were with him on vocals.
Miss Eric so much 😭
@@alucard624 And Eric Woolfson was the main composer, although it's a team work with the producers (which he also was) and the great work of Andrew Powell who put the ideas of Eric in Symphonic form.
😔😔😔😔💔💔💔💔.
I'm glad that I born, live, breathe and have access to this song on this day and age.
I wasn’t around in the eighties yet, but they did have a lot of good music. I LOVE THIS SONG! It has a wonderful feeling that you don’t get with a lot of modern popular songs. If you are interested in listening to this slowed down and reverberated version, it would really make my day ruclips.net/video/GTX0YU4qbf0/видео.html I apologize for the self promotion, only listen to it if you want ! Have a nice day/night
So am i
Bravo !
@@strawblily7292 check out the new Alan Parsons album. As Lights Fall is amazing. It saddens me to know that he might have recorded his last album.
Alan Parsons Project - love this band, that classic, glorious and amazing sound! Timeless, ageless and extraordinary!
Another 54 year old German fellow....now living in the Caribbean....but these awesome 80 ies were just so unique. Especially this song with a great oldstyle cartoon video....wow. amazing!. Song came like when we were at the cinema watching Back to the Future....😅
please fund west papuan independence so someone with a brain survives tysm
I'm 64 and I will always love the music of the 80s! The very best decade ever for Rock music!
The greatest for sure. America was fun then.
The Alan Parsons Project is truly an underrated musical gem! Glad my mom is such a big fan so I could grow up with their music! Very lucky we got to see them in 2016 live!
I saw them in 2017, and it was trusty a beautiful sight.
Nothing underrated about them at all
well they were wildly popular in the 80's played a lot on the radio, seemed to have lots of hits
the band was so well loved back then
They were mentioned in Austin Powers
Far from being underrated
This feels like an earnest message from people that aren't here anymore, like they're describing an actual event that happened long ago and this music video is a story passed down from one generation to another for the betterment of people born in the future.
unfortunately you can't take my word for it, but i'm in the circumstance this song's "secret meaning" fits. alan parsons was a mason, if you're a sensitive who gets in a fight with the secret controllers of society, you'll understand the "don't answer me" thing for reals. those boys hose down good people for laughs as a way of life.
personally, i'm kind of like, fku him, free west papua Actually.
Saw this as an 8 years old and it ALWAYS stuck with me. Magnificent across the board 🤘♥️🤘
Same here. I don't think I watched this video since I was 7 or 8 until today and I'm 47 now. All I remembered was the guys fighting with the Batman-like "biff-boom-splat" things from way back then. Boy this brings back memories!
@@footballs956 Same. A "live-action" comic strip was what I needed as a boy too. People forget that MTV was the best jukebox EVER at one time...
🎉🎉🎉
Right on ... Mike kaluta artwork / homage to early silent movies man in the moon luminaire ? Moilre ? Managed spelling
The sax solo @2:31 is amazing...🎷
You should hear this song on The Alan Parsons Project Live in Colombus, the sax is such chilling best C.D I have of this very talented man and band.
Right up there with Gerry Rafferty's Baker Street
Mel Collins, who played with King Crimson, Camel, Dire Straits, The Rolling Stones, Brian Ferry, Eric Clapton, Roger Waters and many more.

Don't Answer Me
If you believe in the power magic
I can change your mind
And if you need to believe in someone
Turn and look behind
When we were living in a dream world
Clouds got in the way
We gave it up in a moment of madness
And threw it all away
Don't answer me, don't break the silence
Don't let me win
Don't answer me, stay on your island
Don't let me in
Run away and hide from everyone
Can you change the things we've said and done?
If you believe in the power of magic

So if you need to believe in someone

It ain't enough that we meet as strangers
I cant set you free
So will you turn your back forever on what you mean to me?
Don't answer me, don't break the silence
Don't let me win
Don't answer me, stay on your island
Don't let me in
Run away and hide from everyone
Can you change the things we've said and done?
Don't answer me, don't break the silence
Don't let me win
Don't answer me, stay on your island
Don't let me in
Run away and hide from everyone
Don't answer me, don't break the silence
Don't let me win
Don't answer me, stay on your island
Don't let me in
Can you change the things we've said and done?
Don't answer me, don't break the silence
Don't let me win
Don't answer me, stay on your island
Thank you for the lyrics
Es una magnífica letra.
Thanks pal!
its about Faul.....
What are the implications of these lyrics?
Haven't heard that song in years. Brings back memories.
This is not a song.... This is magic ✨
Alan Parsons is a lowkey music legend
I was 13 when I bought the single. Now I am nearly 52. Years pass on but memories of a great times such the 80s remain inside my head.
70/80's to be remembered as the peak of human civilization I'm pretty sure. The rest was a downfall like Roman times... Cheers instagram, tiktok and Co.
@@PeterBalssuweit A man a impeccable taste at any age!
That's the way it works. John Lennon - he was in a '60s group called the Beatles - once said his father liked music from his youth and he, John, said, I dig music from my time.
Let yourself absorb it all !!😊
Older, so I bought the album. I miss record shopping
This is one of the many great songs of Alan Parsons - the short sax play is atmospheric !!
FNTASTIC SONG !
Now is 10.02.2024.

Isn’t it funny how a song finds you just when you need it.. I can’t stop listening :)
Me too, love this great song for 35 years
Exactly!
Me too
I heard that! Memories of me and my girlfriend making out in her basement with this video playing back in '84. Classic!
I wish people worked that way. Keep your head up Mariya!
The bit with Nick's enemy landing in the eye of the Man In the Moon is a visual reference to the 1902 film Le Voyage Dans La Lune, by Georges Méliès

Timeless :) Greetings from Gdansk, Poland
HOLA ESTE 21 DE JULIO CUMPLO 54 AÑOS, Y ESTA CANCIÓN ME REGRESÓ A MI ADOLECENCIA!!! REALMENTE NOSTALGICO!!! 🥲
Still a very beautiful song, even in 2022. Lots of good memories attached to it.
Amo esa canción su ritmo y la voz tan maravillosa y especial del cantante 💟
그래요❤
Eric Woolfson was a brilliant composer and musician. He wrote this song and many other great ones.
I love this song
Eric Woolfson's Project, actually.
His voice was incredible too
The Eric woolfson project for me
This project must be called Eric Woolfson's Project, or Woolfson-Powell Project...because the music came from them...
I was born in 2009 and my mom's car has always had a broken radio so she just played her tapes on repeat and this song was one of those songs on the tapes. I'm glad I grew up listening to classics like this.
I have been searching this song for 9 years. When my dad showed me this video to me, I was very little and I only remembered a few details.
Finally, today, I found it, and it is a complete masterpiece.
One of the best songs in the 80s
It's got alot of Phil Spector influence. Sorry to tread on u.
Lol@ Phil Spector
Definitiv✌️
One of the most underrated songs of the 1980s.
"AWESOMENESS" is not enough to describe this immortal song by Alan 👍😊🇪🇬🇪🇬
"Don't Answer Me"
If you believe in the power of magic,
I can change your mind
And if you need to believe in someone,
Turn and look behind
When we were living in a dream world,
Clouds got in the way
We gave it up in a moment of madness
And threw it all away
Don't answer me, don't break the silence
Don't let me win
Don't answer me, stay on your island
Don't let me in
Run away and hide from everyone
Can you change the things we've said and done?

The best music from Alan Parsons Project ❤
2023 still loving this sound
If you believe in the power of music.....
Alan Parsons is incredible
. More talent in his pinky finger than 99% of artists today. Im 40 and grew up with my dads music. Dire straights ,Alan parsons , Pink Floyd /acdc/ Metallica/Michael Jackson and the rest. 80s was awesome , 90s had some excellent music then it really started backsliding.
I grew up in the 60's but was coming of age in the 70's and college years in the 80's!!
Truly an amazing time to experience some incredible music and a pool of talent that had so much DEPTH TO IT!!
Totally agree. The majority of today's artists all have their voices/music end product altered in their songs. Mariah Carey, Britney Spears, Taylor Swift, Arianna Grande, Madonna etc...etc all do it.
Same here born in 1981. My parents had music like this and I’m glad I grew up in 80s and 90s
You left out Kate Bush, wow.
You forger Prince
I remember seeing this on MTV as a kid and I've loved it ever since. Very nostalgic.
I'm 72, still impressed.
This song appeared to me by chance, I want to say that this is a great work, I'm just over 20, but I feel this vibe of the 80s, it teaches me to love people and music, and has a fascinating chorus. Would be perfect for Guardians of the Galaxy 3
I could listen to that song for hours.
+Francis Porretto You're not the only one!
+Francis Porretto/i agree i can listen to this song all day its a gem of a song and the video concept is amazing and it's a song that has with help the test of time im thinking that this came out in the early 1980's and still has a great following like all great songs do!
+Francis Porretto - you've got that right. They definitely don't make gorgeous tunes like this any more.
It's a beauty....
i have to join in on that remark and say amen...... its a great song that never got its due..... but a lot of Alan Parson's tumes didn't get the allaclades they deserved
This song is time stamped in my brain from july 1984. I played it 100x trying to get over the worst break up of my life.. still love the song but get sad thinking about my scene then... This song really helped me get through it.
This song is so melancholy I can barely stand it without going into a deep,depression
Mine was Key Largo! That is my song from my worst breakup
DEDICATED TO SANDY....(BUNNY)
WHEREVER YOU ARE I WISH I WAS..
To my baby who could never be mine
Same here. Worst pain I've ever suffered. 1984 was the worst year I've ever lived. This song like a few others can trigger those memories like nothing else. But I still love to hear them now and then. I was young then.
49 year old man Herr, I love songs that can touch my heart and make me cry. Those days are gone forever in music. But my cd collection lives on❤
Wspaniały hit Wszech Czasów.
Aww…this released my senior year in high school. It reminds me of my Mother. I was watching MTV at the time (as we all did in 1982) and my Mom made a comment how much she liked this video and song. I get a bit emotional whenever I hear it. Great song!❤
1982 now that was a GREAT year!
My absolutely favourite Alan Parsons Project song. I loved it from the moment it first came out in the 80's.
Absolutely, same here 🥰
I cry every time I hear it 🥲
I Love This Song 🎧📲💟🤎💖💙❣️☮️
It’s December 2nd 2023 & Still Rocking
The 60s feel and vibe version of our 80s decade Celebrating with all of you whom were alive in the 80s 🥂
This music sounds like a fresher brewed cup of coffee
The feeling you get when you get to the ocean and walk in it’s electricity
Never gets old
well said
You say it well !😊

Sounds like ELO as well.
Riquezas ☺😴😔
Heard this song in 1984 when I was 10 years old.. I'm 46 now and still listening...
I was 16 Love there music :)
I was 11 when this song came out I'm now 47 and still love it truly one of the Alan Parsons Projects best
Me too!
Was 4 at the time, and only saw the video on TV a bunch of times. Didn't find what it was until some 30 years later.
The same
И сразу становишься моложе на 40 лет!
Милое сердцу ретро!
А как будто только вчера!!!
Семидесятые, половина восьмидесятых - золотое время!!!!
Porque cada vez que escucho esta gran canción….se me caen las lagrimas??😢😢
One of the most elegant melodies ever written!
When music was grand and MTV played videos
MTV used to play music? :O
And History Channel was about HISTORY, and Discovery Channel was about DISCOVERIES and TLC was about LEARNING.
@@dermontbud2798 Yes. Just too bad that history was very inaccurate about history, and discovery channel was not much about discovery more like african and australian wild life.
@@obiwanfisher537 yes they did
Well - when rap got to be so big and popular - just seeing guys squatting on a corner or walking and swinging their arms and yes- the girls were babes, but the videos were too repetitive. That is my one theory as to why MTV QUIT PLAYING VIDEOS!!!!
Hermosa cancion , que diferencia es cantar con la boca impulsado por un gran corazon
Después de 40 años se me ponen los vellos como escarpias cada vez que la escucho.40 años desde que empecé a sentir que la música te transporta a un estado de bienestar inigualable
Esto si era música
✔voz sin autotune
✔letra que llega al alma
✔decencia
✔elegancia

El autotune se usa creo que desde a finales de los 90's y esta canción es del 83

The woman lured another one.
❤👍love love 👍❤
Disgusting stupidity and gynocentrism, not "love".
Слишком плохо, что такие глупые комментарии кто-то оставляет со студии. Стоило бы наказать бичевку и гоминидку иррациональную.

Lay down on your bed, turn on his music, open your soul, and let your spirit soar to the stars with Alan Parsons leading. Sooner or later he's gonna take your breath away.
Mi ricorda questa canzone quando era in vita mio nonno ed aveva 82 anni quando ho scoperto questa canzone è l' abbiamo ascoltata insieme anche in presenza dell' altra mia nonna che aveva 72 anni.
Haunting, hymn-like, wall-of-sound, genius, masterpiece. Magic.
Nice description, epic song.
Yes, wall of sound. I knew there was something nostalgic about this. Good ear!
Song makes my throat and heart hurt. What a time to be alive when this came out, huh?
I was .. incredible still beautiful.. the memories come flooding back 💕
It absolutely was and am proud to have been a child of the 80s
Ah, if you want one that REALLY puts a lump in your throat, listen to their song "Time." I can hardly get through it without a tear.
This song was off really one of the most interesting albums he created called ammonia avenue. The combination of melodies song and different songs and a couple of instrumentals all around a great album listen to.
so thruh!!!
I was a kid in the 70's and a teenager in the 80's. Fantastic music. I doubt you will ever hear songs now with a killer sax solo or a guitar solo for that matter.
Most songs, no matter how good they are, are lumpy mattresses. This song is a Tempur-Pedic: I lay down and it fits me perfectly every time.
I was 13, and I was in love. The deepest and purest feeling I have ever felt in my whole life. Fire in my heart, no less. That song was an important part of the soundtrack of that emotional "roller coaster". Every time I hear it, I evoke those moments, I feel goose bumps. Cheesy...? Yeah, sure, but I do not care. I feel still alive, no less.
and god bless you for it WE NEED MORE ROMAntics it is a hard won battle to find love [I've had some bright spots myself !] so it is at least we have those brief moments with music !! Enjoy the HOLIDAYS !!
loved this video one of my favorite video of all time and a great video and song.
Ramon Plaza not cheesy. We can relate!
Ramon Plaza That is a beautiful experience that no one should be denied. Thanks for sharing!
goosebumps are good !
Amazing terrific sends shivers down my spine ... saxophone brilliant !!!
This Band is one of the most succesfull one's of the 80's ...the quality of music, lyrics and unique sound....
I believe in the power of magic. Thank you, Alan Parsons, for helping me to believe in love. Beautiful music.
As the song says, it's all a fantasy.
This is THE song I end karaoke nights with. End the show in a mellow way. Everyone leaves on a cloud. These songs are meant to be shared and performed by ordinary people like you and me. Never forget that.
Amen! Thank you.
I love music, it's helped me thru many hardships and broken hearts. This one is just one.
Who says there’s no such thing as time travel. I was just beamed back to long lost era. The long lost art of MTV music videos. This video when bands cared about the art versus popularity and fame.
no alan parsons is just like an evil super duper mason, he doesn't need fame because he controls scotland and the entire universe as long as it's under an HSS satellite.
Long before our world of on demand streaming, this was one of those songs that would silence a room or car as everyone's spirits flew away with the music. ❤
Well said 👏 👌
