Lyrics
Stars in your eyes, little one
Where do you go to dream
To a place, we all know
The land of make believe
Shadows tapping at your window
Ghostly voices whisper: "Will you come and play?"
Not for all the tea in China
Or the corn in Carolina
Never, never ever
They're running after you, babe
Run for the sun little one
You're an outlaw once again
Time to change, Superman
He'll be with us while he can
In the land of make believe
Something nasty in your garden's waiting
Patiently, 'till it can have your heart
Try to go but it won't let you
Don't you know it's out to get you running
Keep on running
They're running after you, babe
Run for the sun, little one
You're an outlaw once again
Time to change, Superman
He'll be with us while he can
In the land of make believe
Your world is turning
From night to day
Your dream is burning far, far away
Into the blue, you and I
To the circus in the sky
Captain Kids on the sand
With the treasure close at hand
In the land of make believe
In the land of make believe
Run for the sun, little one
You're an outlaw once again
Time to change, Superman
He'll be with us while he can
In the land of make believe
Run for the sun, little one
You're an outlaw once again
Time to change, Superman
He'll be with us while he can
In the land of make believe
(I've got a friend who comes to tea
And no-one else can see but me
He came today but had to go
To visit you?
Ya never know)

As someone who lived through the 80,s this just makes our current reality suck that little bit more ,and brings a year to my eye
I love your slip, a year to your eye by going back through the years
We lose those things we fail to hold onto. The tune is iconic.
You made me laugh out loud
@@martijnvanzundert9219
Are you ok mate? You don't sound it.
I’d say in a lot of ways things are defined better now than they were then
We played this at my sons funeral. He'd be 21 this year.
Baby Thomas. Remembered with a smile.
Sad to hear man.😭😭😭😭😭
My condoleance.😔😔
@@mariozondag2576 Thank you.
Very sorry to hear that. Condolences.
I'd like to say something witty or funny that may bring a smile. Instead all I can say is my condolences to you.
@@thefurrybastard1964 Thank you
I got goose bumps with the intro. What a fantastic song. Sort of makes me feel a bit tearful remembering being a kid in those early 80s days.
Me too. Wish I could go back to those times
I'm 14 and this is my first time hearing this masterpiece👍🏻.... How is that even possible! 😱😅🥳🌟💕
🌈🤘🏻This song is amazing!!! 😸✌🏻
Penny M yes, there are some great older songs, but if you are younger you wouldn’t necessary hear them. I find radio stations even like Absolute 80s play the same old songs all the time and there are a lot they miss.
@@Harvey.M_Theater There's a cover version by allSTARS* from around the year 2000 that you might like too, Bucks Fizz is the original and best but they did a pretty nice job of covering it. It is a really, really great song 😃
@@bobblebardsley Thanks, I will have a look at that now! 😃
It's very kind of you! 😸☺️ Here have a cookie, from me. 🍪 And a high five too! ✋🏻+...
Still loving this classic in 2024 🩷💕
Me too!!!!!
This group was the most 80s thing from the 80s. I’m obsessed 😂
How to say they won Eurovision without saying they WON Eurovision! Not bad for a British band!

It's the year 2023 and this song is still pure magic!!! 💖
my melody listened to this, and never ending story before that.. I love RUclips for a proper bit of 80s nostalgia
@@TheVote2010 "never ending story" is also beautiful.. I grew up with this kind of music.. great childhood memories.. you're totally right, thanks to youTube, it's like a time machine bringing us back to the good old days!!! 😉 Let's enjoy... kind greetings from Austria, dear Patrick Martin... 🌞🌈🌞
My gf looks like Cheryl 🙂
@@dannymckeown6394 congrats... she's a beauty!!! 😊
I have 2 agree a number one when I was 14 awesome
Watching this in lockdown 2020. The freedom of our youth all gone. We had the best times ever xxxxx
Best ever.
Definitely
👊😎X
Amazing times we had
100%
Cheryl is sure looking good !
Beautiful song....so out of this world.... Something about it... Feels like it should never end. Timeless!
well said 👏
Buck fizz the greatest group of the 80s x
I wish to go back in time and stay there forever!❤❤❤
Me too *

Cheryl in that dress was an aid to get me through my later teenage years. 💘
Still works for me 🔥🔥
Give me Jay any day of the week. She was and still is, HOT.
@@PurpleRecords1972 do not worry, she did have underwear on.
@@sallyjoan How exactly do you know that ??
@@johnrasmussen9651 cos she admitted it when she was on This Morning, she clearly stated that she had drawers on.
A year changes everything I'm playing this song for love for life for every Christmas for everyone on my path. For how it was, thankyou xx
Watching this video makes me absolutely happy. In 80's people could just make positive songs, today it's impossible to do something like that... And i agree, this girl looks amazing. Greetings from Poland!
ja też pamiętam tą piosenkę.Gdy byłem na zabawie szkolnej w sp nr 4 w Legnicy, byłem mały, ale dobrze pamiętam tą piosenkę. Jeden nauczyciel na sali wpadł taki nastrój że jak tańczył z nauczycielką to kompletnie odleciał do gwiazd. Wspaniałe czasy!
Happy and sad at the same time. Memories ❤
They dont make music like this any more :(.
Love 80s
Beautiful and magical time
Yes they do. You're just listening to the wrong music. Also the 80s was the decade of the Birdie Song and Black Lace. There is great music every decade, there is shit music every decade.
Skyliner89 the best time ever

To prawda magiczne lata, nasza młodość...
In 20 years from now the post millenials will be saying the same as the baby boomer generation before us did!! It goes on and on.
They never will
Bucks Fizz were very popular in my country, El Salvador 🇸🇻, at the beginning of the 80’s. The pop radios used to play their music untiringly.

On of my favourite songs of all time miss the 80s pure magic
I can never get through this song without bawling my eyes out . It makes me cry so much.. itwas my favourite song in the world when I was 4 years old . I loved this song so much I still get goosebumps at age 45 ! 😢
How does it give you goose bumps, I'm an emotional fella but this song never gives me goose bumps, fantastic song though.
@@christopheraspland2091 well for very personal reasons attached to blissful childhood memories and the pure nostalgia of being 4 years old again when everything in the world was magical and my family was at its happiest …. Need I go on ? Sorry you aren’t experiencing something that is subjective to me … I’m not sure how any two people would have the exact same sensory response to a song. Different things mean different things to different people
@@HannadayFLO magic isn’t it ! Xx
Aww you're not the only one. Was a bit of a dreamer as i kid and it feels like the song takes you on a dreamy escape with some of the lyrics and the melody . Not heard it for decades but instantly takes me back to playful childhood innocence where there's not too much to worry about. Guess the tears are a reflection or reaction that those days are gone....but we can still enjoy these songs and vids!
Similar for me Vikki. I was 12 though. A remarkable childhood and I found the song so very affecting. My father is gone now and mum is old and getting frail. It now takes me back to a time of security and love.
By far their best hit... Cheryl in that dress, so risqué at the time lol 😂
Pretty damn risqooo now !!!
my nan had great music taste, she died 2 days before Christmas 2020, playing this repeatedly since then🤷♂️
making me cope actually 💔❤
sorry for your loss your nan would not want you being sorrowfull for too long /life is losing and no one but no one will go through life without experiancing it normally /this song lately has been stuck in my head, this covid saga is doing weird things to people out there but living in a land where all this is over please come soon///x
Sorry for your loss Charlie, whatever gets you through, glad it helps.
Sorry for your loss 🙏🏾
@@zanducktv2398 thanks youuuu🫶🏻
Same here. I'm sure she visits in your dreams. I know mine does. Take care of yourself.
JayAston and Cheryl Baker they both stunning 😍!
I feel so blessed to be born in the 70s and raised in the 80s. This song is a representation of just how fantastically amazing the 80s were. And don't even get me started on the early 90s when us so called generation x hit the raves 😄
Me to 70’s kids are the best
me too. Feel sorry for the generation today The rubbish they have
Well said
Itutht v
Só tenho a dizer é que são absolutamente fantásticos.
The 80s were not perfect, but they brought some quality, innocence and mystery that allowed us to enjoy it for what it was worth. This song is very simple thought for the kid in all of us, when times are hard we can always try to imagine and make believe for a minute. Pure brilliance.
Exactly - pure escapism! That's why it is a perfect pop song.
Back in the day when songs made you feel something. Happy or Sad. Didn't need to be arty or trendy. Just feel good sounds. Love it and miss it.
The exact reason I enjoy listening to it now 👍
Especially the fact that it is an attack on Thatcherism
@@robertwilson7130 pfft thats hidden a bit too deep when someone else doesnt say that
@@robertwilson7130 Done so in a quite artistic, ironic way at that
If you miss it go listen to a 80s song on RUclips? ...simple
I just adore this!! Great memories and sounds just as good today as it did back then. Who could forget Cheryl's dress!!!
What dress?
The big question is, was she wearing any underwear?
One of the best pop songs ever !!!
i agree it sounds so good after all these years!
Watching in Feb 21. Looking back at this remembering life being so different. Can I go back there please 🤪 Buck’s Fizz were great I met Cheryl, she’s lovely!
Proper, bouncy happy pop-let's have more of it and people would be happier.
Agreed 👍
Cheryl in that dress, phwoah 😍❤
Cheryl or Jay.. the eternal struggle....
total ride
I think we all thought that at the time.
The land of nostalgia
ABBA's shadow is very long. Beautiful song.
nagrywało się to na grundiga z radia i zawsze wściekłość bo wyciszali tego dzieciaczka na końcu, zajefajny kawałek!!!
😄
I thought this 1980s song sounded awfully familiar to me.
It's a great song. I always love the 1980s music. Along with the 1990s and the 2000s, 1980s is one of my favourite decade for the music.
Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪
Viva a Irlanda...e viva ao Shamrock Rovers
It's the year 2024 and this song is still pure magic!!!
And Cheryl was a natural beauty
Wow - a timeless and kind of magical song.
The 80s, xmas time and being young all rolled into one ❤

Man, I miss the 80's 😞
Me to it's not the same anymore 😞
@The Flying Dutchman it was shit in the '80s. Three TV channels until 1982, Thatcher, Miner's strike, all the shops shut at 5:30 and didn't open on Sunday, pubs kicked out at 11. If you were a persecuted minority the police were no help, they might have been the reason for your persecution. Compared to now almost everything was worse in the 80s - it was all bad food, boring beer, primitive computers, crap cars, fucking Athena posters.....
Horrible times, the only reason people here are nostalgic is personal reasons - they could still see their toes and they didn't have any responsibilities.
@@leehazlewoodism Oh man.That last phrase deserves a bright spot in the pantheon of famous quotes.
❤️
It's Christmas 2021 and this is a classic. Thank you Bucks Fizz.
Merry christmas (a few days late) to you ... and yes.... it was horribly unfashionable to like buck's fizz, but in the mind of an 8 yr old.... this was classic :)
I don,t celer rate.christmas, but I do love the song,,, and I dono.about the.land.of.make.beliefe,, paradise,,, isaiaih, cha,65,v20
@@chrisdurant4627 You dunno about the land of make believe but you need an imaginary friend because you're scared of dying, lel. Sort your life out and read a book like that Bible and you'll be able to spell properly. People that don't read can't spell, so no good trying to quote a book you've never read if you can't even spell Isiah properly, Jesus Christ, you're so hellbound for being another fake online god-botherer.
Absolutely ☺️
Reminds me so much of Christmas and I feel so festive every time I listen to it. Pure magical stuff...
WOW super Mega fantastic music ❤
Absolutely fantastic. Probably the best ever drum sequence in any song. The drums make the song.
right on. better than any song ever.
stunninglad1 absolutely right.L.G.
Credit goes to drummer Graham Broad, who was their primary drummer through the 80's.
Agreed! Love this song and also Rick Astley both songs make me cry
I would say the drums are good but the riff and the Chorus is what makes the song period. i've Heard alot of songs and i mean alot some with bad Chorus and riffs and some with great but i have to admit this Chorus is fucking Amazing
Vanhaa mutta vyvää ,fantastista, mitä onmiellyttäväävää kuunella.🎉❤❤❤❤
My favourite fact about this is that it was written about the Thatcher government and the threat of Toryism/Capitalism. Who would have thought this piece of light, happy music would be so subversive?
I love this music!🎉🎉🎉 I was young, in 1980! My golden' years!!! 😅❤❤❤❤❤ I'm earing it right now, in 2024! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Goodness Cheryl looked spectacular in that costume and still looks pretty good after all these years .Bucks Fizz were always one of my favourite groups back in the 80s .Easy winners in the Eurovision song contests !
That dress was on the single cover too, it was responsible for "The Hand Of Make Believe" on numerous occasions...
😂😂😂
Lol !
😂🥂
Addendum: I mean, come on, she can't be can she, not in that dress and the way she got out the pool, no way... ... ...
Got to be a Leeds United fan with wit like that! MOT. 🤣
Molto bella questa canzone
Had such a crush on Cheryl ( and I was 26 at the time this came out ha ha ha ) lovely song.
cheryl always had the shape
Who wants to get in a time machine with me and go back to the 80's
Me!
All up for that
Oh yes👍
Me please
Yes!
Cheryl and Jay rocking it in Khan and Bell. 👌🏻
This song is simply magical. I remember the first time I heard it in 1981 when it became a worldwide hit. It was so unique and catchy it’s impossible not to love it. Even sounds magical in 2022! Bucks Fizz is one of the best British groups. They have so many great songs.
Totally agree
I first heard this as a teenager back in the 80's. loved it then and still love it now as a 61 year old woman. one of my favourites from that time. the 80's were a magical era.
On the brink of something so special at my beloved Newcastle United ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Greatest.Song.Ever
Beautiful❤i loved that song so much its so magical❤
There were some absolute bangers back in the day, and this is defo one of those songs that you hardly hear, but when you do, it's on repeat most of the day..
Forget Mariah Carey or Cliff Richard.. THIS is my XMAS song
wow outstanding my first time listening too this
The beginning of this song is the most uplifting thing i heard in my life
Similar to Brother Louie by Modern Talking
@@dimonwarszawski3884 not really
It was so ahead of it,s time when it was released, so fresh , new and hopeful of the future to come for everybody. Merry christmas and a happy new year to everyone.
my favourite song of the entire 80s. Cheryl was a stunner.
i bet you think the men are too.
Growing up this was my baby song. Forty years on I'm a writer, so still living my life in a Land of Make-believe. And yes, I have many friends who come around for tea, who nobody can see but me 😂😂
that indeed brought a smile to my face x
Das war super Zeit,mit solchen Songs schönere wie diese.👌👌👌💞💃🕺
Great music video a song from a great song I am huge bucks fizz fan
It7t84t757tu5hturr
Went to the land of Make Believe by watching Labyrinth....and I get this song stuck in my head???? My head is a weird place....but I love it.
Lelly Garwood Nothing wrong with that lol.
I went to a wierd place once..........Totnes,Devon.!!
I'd how much I loved this song. Amazing how I got here on RUclips as I was previously watching /listening to Van Halen - Why can't this be love!!
Yes
Lelly Garwood this songs nealy as old as me there are back together you know touring but without one of the original guys in it just called the fizz now in 2018 2019 2020

Nie znałam tytułu ani nazwy zespołu. Po długich poszukiwaniach pomogło Spotiffy i mam magia.❤❤❤❤❤uwielbiam. Serce się raduje.
As far as pop music goes. This is pure perfection. Wonderful!
it is indeed and they also have done the 2008 extended mix and the 2016 christmas version and also 2017 version too .. all on cd as well all by the same persons from bucks fizz except for bobby g...
Mi infancia resumida en una canción ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ love it😊
Omg...ich hätte nicht gedacht,dieses Lied noch einmal zu hören ..
Das letzte mal hab ich es in den 80igern Jahren gehört und genau wir danals verspüre ich wieder dieses Glücksgefühl im Bauch und das im Dezember 2023...❤️❤️❤️🎥🎤🎧
Lovely, in every way possible! Those girls were (and no doubt still are).....
Beautiful!
still are? where have you been?
What a message. This is a WAKEUP song.
These were the days, growing up in the 80s SO MANY MEMORIES
And me my young childhood days
Wasnt it just
I was 11 when this was in the charts during Christmas/New year 1981-82, it wasn't "cool" to like Bucks Fizz, but I always secretly liked them, especially this song, now 40 years later, my teenage daughters love this song, after finding it in my vinyl collection, great songs never age!
The 80s,my parents were alive ,this was around december time ,i was about 7 so no idea about cheryl but god almighty she looked fit then!!!!.....take me back the 80s were a simpler time
Fantastic song.
My twin loves this, my gorgeous children raised on this every Christmas 🎄. Bless. Seriously,bless this beautiful world for our children. XX ❤️💖😘
In some ways, this is the greatest song ever made.
Que hermosa cancion , te dan ganas de volver a los 80s !!!
I cannot believe it has been 43 years since this great song hit the charts. Still a wonderful song!!
Cheryl really was drop dead gorgeous
Nasze najlepsze niezapomniane lata. Tęsknie za tym. 👍👍👍👍
I ja tęsknię. Bardzo!
The 80's were the best times ever. ❤️🥰
Sweet memories only. Thanks
Jay looked spectacular in that costume.😉
Jay said after recording a Christmas TOTP she was flown to Jersey by private jet to spend Christmas with her family, still in her costume and covered in fake snow!
Очень весёлая и задорная песня. 👍 Супер!!!
how fit was Cheryl
Steven Morrish very very and stayed so for years!
Id still smash it
Oh hell yeah...And Jay a very close second...
quite fit
Marks out of 10? Hell, I'd give her one.
My mum loved this and so did i. Love u mum x💖
That lace up dress 🎉
Realmente eran buenos estos cantantes ... Guapos , y buena música
It's got THE hook of the Decade.
I remember seeing this on TV on New Years' Eve in 1982 in Germany, Good Times!!!
I was just 3 years old when bucks fizz released this beautiful song back in late '81
November 1981
Bucks fizz won the euro vision song contest for England 🇬🇧 back in 1981
Great Song from the Best of British 👏👏👏👏👏👌 from Glasgow 🇬🇧
This is pure genius. Such a perfect description of their life and times that’s even more relevant today.
So glad i was young in the 80s.It was a great time for me anyway!.
Just love these 2 girls,Cheryl was always my favourite.Great body and lovely looking face,what more could a testostorone filled 18 year old boy want?!
Please bring back the 80s for me.!!
I just love this Tune and the Drummer is awesome, go for it UK
Brings back so many joyful memories. I was a small child my parents were young and doing there best to provide and live there lives and supporting a young family both now sadly passed away and here am I reminiscing about a time when life seemed so perfect, I wonder if my parents also found the same feelings of nostalgia in music of there youth and there parents.
Super super fantastic mega mega hitttttt the Best
what a drum beat; ahead of its time, and about the song, uuuh. Brillant!
