- Опубликовано: 22 июн 2013
- Is a New Wave song written by John Crawford for his band, Berlin. The song has been covered by a number of artists, including System of a Down, Alkaline Trio, John Frusciante, Hannah Fury and Idle Warship.
The song first appeared on Berlin's breakthrough album Pleasure Victim, released on the independent label Enigma in 1982 and re-released on Geffen in 1983. "The Metro" became the third single from the album, and the second to appear on the Geffen label. It was produced and engineered (as was most of the album) by the band's then-drummer and drum programmer, Daniel Van Patten.
The Berlin recording is known as epitomizing the New Wave genre, for showing the genre for what it essentially was: a blending of punk rock and pop, with heavy use of the Sequential Circuits Prophet-5 synthesizer. Terri Nunn said the song, which was a breakthrough hit for Berlin, "defined us and defined that period of music.
The song's music video was their first MTV hit, in heavy rotation on the young channel in its second and third years. Directed by Dominic Orlando, it was filmed at GMT Studios in West Los Angeles, California (1983). Terri Nunn only sang two lyrics on camera: "I remember hating you for loving me" and "Sorry". The video became a part of the "Berlin Video 45" Geffen-VHS home video, released in 1984.
The single surpassed the Hot 100 peak of their previous cult hit, "Sex (I'm A...)", going to #58, and it remains their third-highest charting single in the U.S. A dance remix of the song received club play in 1983.
Subsequent remixes have been done of Berlin's song, including one by Sigue Sigue Sputnik. A revamped Berlin lineup, led by the original group's Terri Nunn, re-recorded the song around 2000; this version receiving several remixes as well. An acoustic version was made available exclusively on iTunes.
One of their signature songs, it was among those performed by a reunion of the original line-up for a live show at The Roxy in Los Angeles which was the culmination of an
“I remember hating you for loving me.” Very chilling.
This and One way or Another By Blondie are songs that are Equivilent to female Stalkers and remind me of my Exs that were both blonde and blue eyed! Love these songs and those girls still even they want to kill me! LOL
Ever heard the Blondie song "Victor?" That has stalker vibes too and the video is great. 😂
@@SarahTheMiddleEarthling Amazing song and video, one of my favorite. That is my Ex Girl Friend that Blondie is talking about LOL She was Crazy, had one of her attractive girl friends I did not know"Flirt" with me to see how I would act, I did nothing LOL She loved me after that but really she was Crazy. Ashley LOL "Whos that girl Running around with you" is another that captivates me, the video is great by Eurythmics also in this emotional song spectrum I would say. Great music all around from that synth era
@@59thSurvivor-of-VHS Indeed a great turn of words.
@@SarahTheMiddleEarthlingdefinitely remember Victor
Song takes me back to riding in a eurotrain to Krakow alone as a teen from Calais, asleep with soldiers all around and waking up and opening my eyes to the icy Berlin Wall at 6 in the morning. Winter of 1983.
Wow..🤯
Try driving into east Berlin in 1986. I had the pleasure of doing so. I was working for a US based tractor parts manufacturer. I routinely went through the checkpoints. My employer always cleared it beforehand. Yeah I did very well, though the East Germans did seem to take a liking to my green Porsche 928. Was never allowed to stay overnight. My business meetings were limited to 5 or 6 hours. And yeah for some reason the Stasi would regularly follow me. I usually picked up the tail coming out of the boarder checkpoint, and when I left to return back to the west. When I was transferred to another city past the main German border, I was tailed again until I crossed over into the west. The Stasi were pretty obvious about it cause they always had the best and fastest cars they could get in a single party system. The transfer out might have been KGB following me. You always had your car checked out before you took trips to ensure it was in good condition. The communists didn’t take too kindly to breakdowns. My employer offered me a chance to bring my 928 home when I came back to America. I took it and I’ve still got that car today, I got a 930 turbo since then but I still drive my 928 once or twice a week. I’ve still got my DDR papers in the glovebox and the pictures I took. When the border came down I made it a point to go back and see things. Was drinking one night when some of the old DDR guards recognized me. We had a fun night and we took some awesome photos the next morning. I still talk to some of them, I find the German people have a “ unique” sense of humor regarding the whole unfortunate situation. Their attitude on it is refreshing
Huge song in my day, when I was a college radio DJ in 1984.
Listening in 2024? I am 🙋🏻♀️
Ironic how by 2024 a "Paris train" is inoperable to delve France into chaos similar to other past infamous French train wrecks.
One of my favorites from the Eighties. With her voice and that chilly electronic beat, it just doesn't get anymore "Europe during the Cold War" than this.
Why does it give me Halloween Vibes? It certainly does not give me Europe in cold war vibes.....that doesn't make sense. Plus, i don't see it.
@@OniNoodleStudio To my North American ear at least, everything about this song screams Europe in the 1980's, and I was there. "Metro" itself is a European term, we call it a subway here. The references to London and Paris, very European police siren, electronic music, and the style of the video itself are also very specific to that place and time. I really don't understand your "Halloween" reference at all.
@@stephenmark6781 Well, i'm not from Europe since i'm from the united statesm...so i don't get your Europe vibes either. Besides, if i explained my "Halloween" vibes to YOU...it would just defeat the purpose.
Berlin is from LA. So much for Europe in the Cold War... but a tribute to the creative atmosphere this band could produce. Even the greatest Euro-disco song of that era was by NYC's Blondie, Heart of Glass. #blessings #GenXer #80s4ever
@@GhostRanger5060 Yep. I knew they were American. But like you said, it's about the atmosphere they create.
That “sorry” takes me back and gets me every time.
Another great reason why the 80s were so important in music history.
Teri is a timeless beauty!❤
Terry Nunn was amazing..!!!! 🥳🥳🎶🎶🔥🔥🔥
Whew, what a looker that Terri Nunn
Still is. She has aged VERY well 😍
Listening to this in the mid 80's while heading down to watch the NHRA Winternationals at Pomona CA with Jack and Libby. Good times were had by all!
I remember riding the subway in
New York City thinking about this song. It just seemed appropriate lol!
One of the top 80’s songs
Just love that song. Have not heard it for 35 years
Terri Nunn definitely kicked ass in this video amazing voice
One of my favorite bands from the 80s. I was a teenager back then, and I loved Terri Nunn! Awesome voice!
What a great video. It deserves at least 1 million views.
Everyone should watch this in order to get payed
Great songwriting, some memorable passages in the lyrics
I own the Berlin vinyl with Sex (I Am) which is extended as the A side and this as a B side. Absolute masterful synth pop.
The New Wave sound gets most of the run on here -- as it should -- but this is very good songwriting. The writing deserves more love.
Year 2023 looking how to go back to the 80’s.
Watched this tonight for the first time since the Eighties. Miss that era something fierce.
this is random and only really applies to me, but my grandfather who notoriously both hated and couldn't understand "rock music" told me he liked this one because the words he could pick up made him think it was a world war 2 song. ok. fair. that actually works.
My grandpa appreciated an instrumental passage of Pink Floyd I happened to have on one day. Said it reminded him of some music from his youth in Europe. Was a little triumph.
Missing Persons was also my jam..
More than Berlin. I liked them but Dale Bozio to me was everything.. ❤
People are now riding the Metro again as Paris begins gradually to reopen. Hurrah!
Not tonight 😂😂😂
I remember seeing this video for the first time on a local television show here in Los Angeles called MP3 with British transplant DJ Richard Blade back in the 80s
He’s been DJing on 80s alternative channel 1st Wave for probably 15 years.
Love Terri Nun!
80's, 19, in the Navy, loving my eighties and my mates

I was thinking that same thing lol
🦋
i was there in 1982 !
love the Farrah hair Terri had 😆
S.O.A.D.
such a great song
2:43, it's hard to be more beautiful than that.
Sorry, but I disagree, as white chicks usually are boring in bed, most kind of just sorta lay there. Try a darker toned lady, at least twice. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Fun fact: In 1976,
Teri Nunn auditioned for the role of Princess Leia.
Whoa!
This makes me feel nostalgic and I wasn’t born until ‘89!
Sad this vid doesn't get more views. There are many versions on YT, but this one has the best combo of good video and excellent sound.
When music ruled 💯💯💯 MTV was just a year old 81-82 gen x baby 💯💯💯💯 nothing can touch it!!! Not even Taylor swift 💯🤣🤣🤣🤣
Berlin, i love it, still. Was one of the first who had there album in the Netherlands.Awesome stuff
Now " Free Bed Bugs on Paris Metro Trains in 2023!"
this beat sounds like a NES game . its lit . love it
John frusciante covered this Thts only reason I know n luv this song
John f is a murderer
Lindo som Ese e som
This is definitely Cold War. The band may be American, but the imagery is definitely European.
She didn't have her glass empty!
...I remember a letter wrinkled in my hand...
You got to ❤💘❤ a person like Terri Nunn.She was the about 15 years old girl that guest starred in TV shows "Barnaby Jones", "Vegas", and "Lou Grant",only to be on TV again,but only to be in her pop bands music videos and perform only with David Diamond and company.
3:23 Gorgeous
Who is the Soldier sleeping?
The song is cold, artificial and brutal, just like the 1980s ... but somehow Terri Nunn didn't pull any emotional punches in her performance. Berlin wasn't cheerfully robotic in the way Kraftwerk was. They saw among all that plastic and neon a humanity struggling to exist and they helped it find a voice for its genuine expression.
Esta bonito
I used to ride the Metro in Indianapolis back in the early 80's. Now it's called IndyGo because everything is stupid these days.
J❤️ stuff
Why is this like a mirror image of original video?
Or is this the original?
Why is this video flipped horizontally?? Everyone's left-handed and the EXIT sign is backwards. The aesthetics are kinda awkward. Weird.
This is not the same lead singer for Berlin. They are covering Susie Rausch who replicated me, then replicated her
🐻❤️🐻❄️
I read somewhere this vid was banned from youtube multiple times. Because of the gun?
Serj tankian i love you
Cavarrichis!
System did it better, but this is still good :)
Alkaline Trio did it better than System
I’ve ever heard the song from either, I’ll check them out. Thank you.
Star Wars princess Leia))
Check out the "rabbit junk" cover its insane.
She had a straight page with all tips died in blue at 1 inch depth
Zombies in space land brought me here
Alkaline trio killed this song (cover)
System of a Down does a cover of this song that's actually better than the original.
Nope.....................................

These intros at the beginning of these videos are COMPLETELY POINTLESS! We already know the name of the band and artist since it is already listed in the title.
Poor Terri, romantically rejected by several gay men
Whos here because of system of a down?
The SOAD version is on another planet! Love them so much!
He was gay.😃
She was a woman. A female . A straight woman actually. How can you be so stoopid
Was he trans?
As a Berlin guru.... no he wasn't, they were in a relationship, that ended eventually after there big 80s hit take my breath away.
That was just a particular aesthetic that was popular in the early 80s, often with straight guys.
She was a woman.. a female. Don't be daft dumbass
Whos listening still in 2026 🔥
