Never a truer word said. we realise now 40 years on or so the memories we were making , blissfully unaware of the crock of sxxt this country would become
I was 16 when this came out, remember buying the 7 inch single in Woolworths South Shields, the things you remember, but I do, made that journey into town so often to buy records, trip to greggs for a cheese and onion pasty and an iced split and then home to blast out my purchases, happy days; it was probably a grim old time 1982, but when you’re young you just don’t notice, everything is cool as long as you have your mates, your records, and going out on a Friday night and having a laugh. Anyway, what a tune this was, a big cod phil Spector production by the great Mike hedges, when you put this one on the turn table you needed to turn it up loud!
One song can cover so many amazing memories and this is definitely one of those songs. It reminds me of fantastic special memories of my youth and my former girlfriend who is no longer with us but I smile each time I hear this mesmerising song. Sleep Tight Claire x

A absolutely 80s classic timeless.
Perfectly produced 80s tune
One of the best songs of the 80s. My god I wished I could go back to these times. These were the best times
Agreed!
The 80s was the best time to be a teenager, great memories 😊
Amazing how a song can transport you back in time🥰
As a 56 year old this wonderful song transports me back to a fantastic time! Although we may not have appriciated it at the time. ❤
57 here, and spot on 👍
