    Did not know Weezer remade it. Loved this song in the 80's. They used to play it at our city pool. Skateboarding. Hair waves. Poofy hair. Best of times. Went to Germany in the 90's and they played it as a techno song in clubs! Good stuff!

      Julien S this is very true, the technology we have today we didn’t even have 5 or 6 years ago. So medical wise yes today is much better, but on the other hand doctors are feeding their patients with chemicals and radiation to help treat illnesses which is 100 percent stupid in my opinion. There is a handful of other things people could be doing to help treat them selves that are 100 percent natural remedies. I guess what I’m saying is that back in the day yes it woulda been a little harder but not that much harder. It was still way simpler then today. You go outside and there is nobody playing at the park anymore, there’s no kids who are really wanting to go outside and have fun unless it’s the kids who were raised on having fun outside. All these kids do is sit in front of a screen all day and night playing fortnite or cod. There was no consoles other then playing Pac-Man or street fighter at arcades which in my mind is far more exciting and entertaining then shooting people up on the screen at home. Then again there was so much racism back then, not that there’s no racism now, it’s just frowned upon and hidden in the shadows more. In the 70’s and 80’s if you were any other race other then white you were tread like scum and killed. So there is ups and downs, and there is ups and downs today too......I don’t know, I guess you are right, but I still would much rather live back in the 80’s for sure.

      @Shadan Rikan Yeah but nobody ever got a decent quality image unless you had a super expensive TV. It was always grainy. That and tape degrades over time unless you work really hard to preserve it and even then unless you've got a master you're going to have a copy of a copy of a copy.

    Today's another day to find you
    Shying away
    I'll be coming for your love, OK?

    I'll be gone

    Is it a life or just to play my worries away

For example, Aretha Franklin's cover of "Respect" became the standard version...Pete Townsend considers Tina Turner's performance of "The Acid Queen" to be the official version...Cyndi Lauper's covers of The Brains' "Money Changes Everything" and Prince's "When U Were Mine" have become her songs by default...many people (inc. The Beatles) consider Siouxsie And The Banshees' 1983 re-imagining of "Dear Prudence" to be a classic in its own way...Leanne Rimes' (technical, since it was released second, though, it was recorded first) cover of Trisha Yearwood's song, "How Do I live?" became a way bigger hit than Yearwood's rendition, yet, Yearwood won the Grammy, which seemed odd, since the Rimes version was the one that got the more historical airplay...and, Frank Sinatra's cover of "New York, New York" has become his signature standard...and, ask Dolly Parton about Whitney Houston's monumental cover of "I Will Always Love You". Some songs take on a special life of their own because of the artist who performed it the best....
