      Yes!!! Gen X here. I love this song. For some inexplicable reason, this song played in my head constantly when I was in the Army training at Fort Sherman, Panama (in 1995). It was the JOTC (Jungle Operations Training Center). In the mornings when the sun was rising, it was a bloody/Orange-ish red color at 5:45 a.m in the morning when were where loading into the Chinook choppers to head out on a mission (a parachute jump) in the mornings during training in the jungle; I was in the 82nd Airborne Division ...Anyhow I diverged. This song always came to my head during those days in my early 20's. ..... perhaps it was because I'm an 80's child who grew up listening to this song in L.A on KROQ radio station. ..... great memories..... great song.

      Yeah that was me sort of. I liked INXS well before their height of popularity with the Album KICK. I went to University of Montana from Connecticut and saw they were playing their. I was elated, then they canceled. Told my dorm when I got there that INXS is coming out with their new album soon! Most of these guys were like INX what who? Was their best album by far hit wise. Then traveled later that year in 1988 and saw them in Spokane Washington where they were in concert on the KICK album tour.

      It is said that what is called "the spirit of an age" is something to which one cannot return. That this spirit gradually dissipates is due to the world's coming to an end. For this reason, although one would like to change today's world back to the spirit of one hundred years or more ago, it cannot be done. Thus it is important to make the best out of every generation. -Ghost Dog

The Fixx, Duran Duran, Tears for Fears and even A Flock of Seagulls made it a great decade to build on the accomplishments of the '70s classic rock stars to give us whole new kinds of sounds. For all the amazing things they did, even Zeppelin never did a song quite like this one.

    1982: I had begun a Receptionist job, the year before. In 2-1/2 years, upgraded to a Sales Secretary at the same company. Total time at the same job: 6-1/2 years, until I had job burnout.
    I remember hearing 80's songs on my car radio, driving two and from work. And twice daily, five days a week, driving to the Warehouse/Manufacturing Plant, in the morning and afternoon; five miles coming and going.

    In the late 90s this song, like almost all Fixx songs, nearly put me into some kind of fever. It was nostalgia for an entire era a mere decade and a half later, when I was like 15. After the attraction of early 90s music was gone (which I did also love), a lot of 80s songs rushed in with the vivid fluidity of music that was so very substantial. I will always love The Fixx.
