    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.

      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 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).

      You're absolutely correct, John Ambrosio. This song is still indeed a great song in 2019 just like how it was from 1982 onwards, and it still sounds like one of the greatest compared to today's pop music. '80s pop music rules!!
