TOTALLY AGREE. It's like God Himself ordained all those talented and creative artists to suddenly start composing and recording all those fabulous songs at the same time. As the saying goes, it was "an embarrassment of riches".
We are so lucky to have been a part of the 80’s the best time to be a teen, best music, fashion. My new single out late 2024 features ABC Band drummer Richard Brook. It’s 80’s soulful pop inspired by ABC.
I`m also 51. Had this song on cassette in my walkman in '82 among Words F.R.David, Abracadabra Steve Miller, I know whats..Frida, Don't go Yazoo, C'mon Eileen Dexys, Avalon Roxy Music....aso on High Life LP. Loooved it so much. Was an epic album. Don' t know if it still exists, sadly.🥲 Haven't seen it 4 a long time.
My mum (0:25 in the red dress) unfortunately passed away in September due to cancer, but it brings me a lot of happiness to be able to watch her through this video whenever I need a pick me up. I love this song ❤
Just think when I was 18 back in 2000 less than half of my peers actually owned a mobile phone and those that did mostly had a basic function Sony Ericsson????
Honestly, the video is campy as heck & the song is beginning to show its age but it's unbeatable for nostalgia value & with a few technical changes with today's technology it could be made into a very acceptable contemporary tune.
One of the biggest hits of the 80s. And it will probably be a hit forever. ABC's debut album is almost 100 percent hits. Incredible. Many bands can only do this with a greatest hits album.
i renemba this song and video by abc on frida night video's on ch 4 nbc i was in elementary school all through tha 80's loooove 80's safe time great music and t.v show's to
The Look of Love by ABC is a perfect example of music in the 80's, whatever you wanted you could find from soft to hard or slow to fast we had it all! If you got to grow up in the 50's through the 90's with all the golden classic movies, music and concerts, YOU were blessed!
90s were pretty magical too for all kinds of music - Electronica/Dance, Trance, Techno etc, Gangsta Rap & Hip-Hop, Heavy Metal and its more underground sub-genres especially Black/Death, R & B, even Country 🎶
I remember first time seeing this video on MTV back in the 80s, what an amazing music, video and feeling. MTV actually used to show music videos as intended, not the BS that they show now. What an amazing time period in music and in general, entertainment was the best and memories we built are amazing. Still nostalgic when I hear this music and music from the 80s.
Denise White, same here. I miss the '80s too, I was only 8 when this song came out and this music video came out with the song, and I've loved them both ever since.
I'm 24 years old and I've been listening to "old" music for the past 3 years now, and i just find it funny how I'm constantly finding new jewels even though nothing is new. This one is definitely one of my favorite findings!
@@GuyCybershy tru dat. once in a lifetime, pop goes the world, just like heaven or close to me or in between days, buffalo stance, into the groove, don't change, pump up the volume, shock the monkey, more than this, wishing well or sign your name, nite and day (al b. sure} , word up, love my way, love is a stranger, sign of the times, as well as look of love or poison arrow or how to be a millionaire, once in a while 80s radio will throw us a bone but there is so much greatness they hardly play. at least the 80s radio i get. so much cheese. how about silent morning by noel or show me by the cover girls for a change? sometimes i'll hear life in a northern town but not often enough. da da da by trio? never. mary's prayer. mary's prayer! i still believe by the call or blood and roses by the smithereens! i got you by split enz and rhythm of the night by debarge. the freaks come out at night. iv'e never heard the freaks come out at night on 80s radio, not since the 80s, anyway. for shame! i never hear the time. the bird, jungle love, gigolos get lonely too. pebbles, lisa lisa and cult jam featuring full force, the belle of st. mark by sheila e. 80s radio, did you forget the belle of st. mark? when was the last time you played shake you down? do you not have sending all my love by linear or bring on the dancing horses by echo and the bunnymen? yes, there was a band called echo and the bunnymen in the 80s. i love the police and billy idol but enough with every breath you take and white wedding. i also love sweet dreams (are made of this) but play when tomorrow comes or at least there must be an angel (playing with my heart), for the sake of humanity. put a little love in your heart, annie lennox and al green. just play it! anyway, that's my rant. that's my 80s playlist. george michael had other songs than just faith or wake me up before you go-go. a different corner! where did your heart go? so sublime! play kissing a fool, for once. whisper to a scream (birds fly). going back to cali, round the way girl. remember ll cool j, radio? i'ma quit now.

It's near impossible not to have a smile on your face, as this song is playing. It's one of those great 80's songs, that just sticks with you for some reason. I remember when this first came out. And I still enjoy it today. Great vocals and a wonderful orchestral background. The 80's were such a better time. You just had such optimism for the present, and for the future. It wasn't perfect of course, nothing ever is. But all in all, it was 1000X's better than now for sure.
@@smith0779 That's true of any era. We always think that the past is a bit better than it is now. Unfortunately, it's the truth. For the most part, things were better than they are now. We were more optimistic for our present and the future, than we are today. Hopefully that'll change. Peace to you too.
@@Mr.SLovesTheSacredHeartofJesus Yes I agree!! I am so grateful I wasn't born a 100 years ago and forced to fight in the Great war. Things are getting worse because the majority of people don't care. Take care , continue to be nice and you will have no worries, God bless X
THIS WAS ALWAYS MY FAV FROM ABC, MY LORD, I REMEMBER POISON ARROW VIDEO CONSTANTLY ON MTV, THE REAL MTV, IN A YEAR I WILL BE 50 YEARS OLD, WHERE DID IT ALL THE TIME GO? I MISS THE '80S, I MISS THAT TIME, I MISS THAT WORLD, THIS WORLD TODAY IS NOT MY WORLD, THE WORLD I KNEW AND GREW UP IN IS GONE, MAKES ME SAD 😥
George Shepherd, same here. I miss the '80s too, especially all the fantastic pop music and all the fabulous pop groups including ABC. I'd love to be transported back to this time too, this is the time when such awesome pop groups like Duran Duran and ABC truly ruled.
Think of the '80s and all the songs you've ever listen to and all of your memories, your friend in high school, and everything you've missed as the future and you are going toward it and it hasn't happened yet. and you'll feel much better and much younger.
Those in the truth movement today are so fond of saying that this is a greatest time to be alive as we witness the great awakening, but I’d happily trade the rest of my life for a chance to relive the 80s. Now those were truly magical times. Who agrees?
ABC were part of the New Romantic era of music where music and fashion merged. It was almost like a 2nd British invasion: Duran Duran, Culture Club, ABC, Kajagoogoo., Human League, Spandau Ballet. Loved every one of em. This was a great time I'll never forget. MTV launces 1981. What a time it was .....miss it
“Sisters and brothers should help each other.” Truer words have never been said. I married a woman who is my equal and best friend. It’s been magical for almost two decades.
This was the first music video I saw when MTV debuted back in '81. It's kooky, but upbeat and everyone in this video seems to be having a blast. The simplicity of the stage is also refreshing, unlike today's overblown productions.
I was 17 when this song was released in 1982. Although the video is silly (most 80s videos were silly), this song was an absolute masterpiece in its day. It's still a work of art. After all these decades, I still listen to ABC. Reminds me so much of my college years, the 1980s.
"I don't know the answer to that question, if I knew I would tell you". Reminds me little bit of David Bowie's voice. End of the song reminds me a bit of Pet Shop Boys. I love this song, it spreads happiness!
Thanks my friend, it's good we share the same passion for the good music. I wish you a wonderful day. If you like norwgian nature and funny short films, check out my channel. I found Bahrain on the map now. I been in Abu Dhabi on my way to Philippines and back. I traveled with Qatar Airways. It's rated as the best airways in the world. I traveled 5 times to Philippines, cause I have family there. With lot of love from Norway.
He he I was going to comment the exact same thing, then I see I did it 3 months ago :-) This song always makes me happy! Great song, and the video is rather good too. The return to the 80's is like walking back to happiness :-)
I was cleaning out my closet and found my bag of (45) records and this song was among them. Good tunes and great times of the 80’s. Yes I’m old and generation X.
How could I not like this? It's generational, Stephen. I preferred loud thumping rock from a powerful home or car stereo that a guy could toke up and bang his Betty to. This sort of music dripping out of my cheap $5 speaker in my 19" Hitachi TV made me think the next generation was "Light in their Sperry Top-Siders."
Martin was the man back in the day . Great singer with some major swag. That bass hook and strings are pure 80's pop perfection. Love the vocal break with ..they say Marty maybe one day you'll find find true love...ahhh say maybe
I just turned 54 today and I still love this music ...Big part of my life!!....I use to throw big underground warehouse parties back in the 80's in Los Angeles and this was the music we played!!!...New wave dance craze back then!!....Miss it!!!😪...D.

Man the 80's gave us the best and most unforgettable songs of our lives. Did they not? Agree or disagree?
Thos song is orgasmic
Agree👍
I agree the 80s was the best
Absolutely, positively yes!!! I have lived through the 80s as a youngster and witnessed all the great music of the era.
TOTALLY AGREE. It's like God Himself ordained all those talented and creative artists to suddenly start composing and recording all those fabulous songs at the same time. As the saying goes, it was "an embarrassment of riches".
56 now and still love this song,,bring back the 80s or build a time machine and take me home

True dat brother 😆😆
This song is exactly 40 years and one day old. It's still as fresh as the first day.
Better than most of today's music-productions
Honestly, the video is campy as heck & the song is beginning to show its age but it's unbeatable for nostalgia value & with a few technical changes with today's technology it could be made into a very acceptable contemporary tune.
ABC Was One Of The Top Bands Of The 80's. Great Great Song.
Real music don 't exist anymore.
For sure bud
Myślami jestem w tamtych czasach kiedy byliśmy tacy wolni🤗🤗
80s music will doewver be rhe best!! January 2, 2025....happy new year 🎉🎉🎉
One of the biggest hits of the 80s. And it will probably be a hit forever. ABC's debut album is almost 100 percent hits. Incredible. Many bands can only do this with a greatest hits album.
I will never get tired of listening to these wonderful 80's songs!!

Martin Fry is a great vocalist and this album is one of the best of the 1980's. Thanks for the great memories
Sure. I love the album, all the songs are great, I bought it when it was released, and remains one of my favorites 40 years after
I had this on cassette I would drive and never fast forward it.
He had the "Look"!
Amen to that 👌🏼
I think this is one of the best ever pop song 🎶🎶
You're right, it's a song with a feeling and its melody accompanies you and brightens your day.
My God, we need 80s music more than ever.

They're on my 80's must listen to , as well . Great song , then or now , in 2023 !❤
Yep!
Plz stop ur cliché comment. Underrated. 22m views isnt underrated
Nothing ever ever will beat out the 80's music!! Simply the best.
Michael Troutman and David Rodriguez, I fully agree with both your comments. The '80s pop music is simply the best by far.
Totally Agree!!

The 90's: Hold my Beer.
Definitely better than the nineties!
I had The Lexicon Of Love LP by ABC in the early '80s. This group is legendary.
I was 16 when ABC released this song and it's still one of my favorites. What a decade the 80's....
God,I not sure..love you ❤
A classic
I'm 53: and I'm still here listening to the best music ever
Oh , I'm 57 ............maybe too old ?
I was 20 and still love ABC!
“Sisters and brothers should help each other.” Truer words have never been said. I married a woman who is my equal and best friend. It’s been magical for almost two decades.
I hate to break it to you but that like is purely about fuckin and nothing else
so you married your sister
@@Ramonatho depends how deep and far you want to take it
or if you want keep it on a superficial level
This song takes me right back to being a teenager. Love it. Year 1982
I graduated 1985. Did a pom pom routine to this song. Loved ever since!
💚
This was the first music video I saw when MTV debuted back in '81. It's kooky, but upbeat and everyone in this video seems to be having a blast. The simplicity of the stage is also refreshing, unlike today's overblown productions.
And hey: there's one man in this music video who actually was in the first music video EVER AIRED on MTV. (1981)

@@TheKeeeks97 Trevor Horn from The Buggles.
@@PhilStrohhamster Thanks!
Agreed .. agreed .. agreed !!!!
Soul of the 80's
I guess I'm lucky... I've lived through the music of the 60's,70's and 80's. Not much can compare to those decades, the best of the best.
Me too. Awesome music
One of the songs that will always sound new. Been on my playlist for years now and never gets old.
I’m 20 and Still loving this radical tune... absolutely jumping around to this masterpiece (Edit)
I was 17 when this song was released in 1982. Although the video is silly (most 80s videos were silly), this song was an absolute masterpiece in its day. It's still a work of art. After all these decades, I still listen to ABC. Reminds me so much of my college years, the 1980s.
I wasn't even alive then but I remember it when I was a kid. Appreciate it more now 🎶"the look of love.."🎶🎹
There is hope for your generation! The '80s had lots of cool music. Hope you discover more!
[GG]Ez ..I remember 1983 driving my 2002 , w a stereo beyond belief ....The Lexicon of Love ....great times
You have great taste in music buddy!!!
As someone from Sheffield produced some awesome groups in the 80s what a classic.
I loved how these artists acted characters in their videos. 80’s had that that quirky and eccentric look! Classic tunes.
"I don't know the answer to that question, if I knew I would tell you". Reminds me little bit of David Bowie's voice. End of the song reminds me a bit of Pet Shop Boys. I love this song, it spreads happiness!
exactly!!! exactly!!! I totally agree with you bro I also felt I was listening to petshop boys specially from this min 2:39 to 2:57. love from Bahrain
Thanks my friend, it's good we share the same passion for the good music. I wish you a wonderful day. If you like norwgian nature and funny short films, check out my channel. I found Bahrain on the map now. I been in Abu Dhabi on my way to Philippines and back. I traveled with Qatar Airways. It's rated as the best airways in the world. I traveled 5 times to Philippines, cause I have family there. With lot of love from Norway.
He he I was going to comment the exact same thing, then I see I did it 3 months ago :-) This song always makes me happy! Great song, and the video is rather good too. The return to the 80's is like walking back to happiness :-)
One of the greatest songs ever
If give anything to go back to the 80s!! College days were such a blast! 🎉😂❤
I was cleaning out my closet and found my bag of (45) records and this song was among them. Good tunes and great times of the 80’s. Yes I’m old and generation X.
yeah
Long live the 80's greatest decade of music!
Yep, - The Brit Pop music of the 80’s and 90’s were some good music.. Gotta Love ❤️
Yes ma'am it was
This song has bought me an incalculable amount of joy since over the years since the 80's. Thank you🙏
You have to remember that for us 80's kids, there was nothing before MTV! Then all the sudden we had these crazy videos! It was great!
Exactly!!
You mean these AWESOME videos
and we have the monkees to thank for that (well, mike anyway)
We would have never had a second British invasion without MTV. I'm 56, and I loved it!!
@@scotabot7826 That's the truth!
This is the sound of good moving and get down music. How could you not like this?
My mother was born in the 70's , I'm glad she can show me song like this . I'm 14 year old
How could I not like this? It's generational, Stephen. I preferred loud thumping rock from a powerful home or car stereo that a guy could toke up and bang his Betty to. This sort of music dripping out of my cheap $5 speaker in my 19" Hitachi TV made me think the next generation was "Light in their Sperry Top-Siders."
@@IMCcanTWEESTED Exactly well said 🤚
80's...years of progress and happiness!!!!!❤️❤️❤️
This song was massive.....a gold hit all over the world!!!!!!!
Time to crank it up ❤❤❤ I LOVE THIS SONG ❤❤❤
The 80’s is UNMATCHED 😭❤️🔥💯💯💯
Yes sir
😳
If someone could build a time machine to 80s who's onboard?
me.....immediately 🙋♀️
Save room for me. I want to escape this difficult reality.
omw
Me brother
I'd probably go back to the 70s then enjoy them both in order.
Needed a pick me up today so I tuned into this! Thank goodness for the 80’s❤😉
Masterpiece!!!❤️❤️❤️
Martin was the man back in the day . Great singer with some major swag. That bass hook and strings are pure 80's pop perfection. Love the vocal break with ..they say Marty maybe one day you'll find find true love...ahhh say maybe
Shane Anthony I
His name is Marlon...
Lovely so lovely Shane Anthony writing this lettter!!
He's been married for 33 years.
No, it's Martin. Martin Fry. He was born in 1958, so he was very young in this video!
'sisters and brothers, should help each other' pulls on my heartstrings
mine also!
Can you imagine to be 20 in the 80's?That's what happened to me and my generation.Great times!
Good for you.
I was 21 in 1980. Loved all the songs, but the 80s music style started in 1978 and ended in 1989.
@@davefranklyn7730 Hi, Dave.
I think the style ended in 1991.
( maybe in 1993).
I spent a lot of time in the 80s. They were pretty cool.
ABC ... amazingly funky new romantics.. the music doesn't age... great band
I’m in my 50s now and this is the happiest song I’ve ever heard....have always loved it!!

Lots of good memories 1980 to 84.

I'm 62 and have heard a lot of music and seen a lot of videos. Nothing like the 80's! I love it!
Everything was new and fresh. So much variety everywhere you looked. It had something for everyone.
smhmay1973 you bet
