This song is amazing. it existed before the internet, they predicted that people talking and connecting online would become a reality. What's even more crazy, they predicted that relationships could exist online. Phil Oakley is a psychic god.
I was a young boy about to fly on my own when this song and movie hit the arrives. What hope there was in the air, the future seemed boundless and all embracing.
God this makes me want to cry. I remember traveling as a kid. To cities like New York. The excitement of driving into a new city. And there was absolutely no doubt that this was the greatest country in the world. Now, as an adult, I just don't know....things aren't the same.
It was a nice time to be a teenager in England too. If we were 50 years old back then it would all probably have looked and felt completely different. I think a lot of the truths about life and society come with age and experience.
@@brittania1974 That is true to a certain extent. But every generation was linked to the generation before throughout history. There were things that the older folks were grumpy about, as alwayd, but there was always a mutual respect. Even if was a very small amount. That chain has been broken. The current generation has sense of attachment to their past. No respect for it, no pride, hell they say out loud that they hate their own culture and want it destroyed. What is happening now is different and you can feel it in the air...even if you cant quite fully explain it.
@@velveetaslingshot I know the very feeling you are talking about. It's the emtiness, I feel it everytime I go out in public to do errands etc. It's a horrible feeling of aloneness and doom.
I remember the 80's so well. We all danced in random places and were filled wth a sense of optimism and belief that the world was going to be just fine as long as the kids danced in stores and wore bright clothing. We saved the world, our generation.
This song evokes intense nostalgia to me. Even when I was a small kid, it did that. The digital realm creates a wonderful path crossing any distance and even any language between people. You can take a peek at anywhere in the world without having to leave your house....but it still can't break the divide between the living and dead. That's what this song always reminds me of.
I loved this song for ages, then I went off it. Next minute I heard the advert I was straight back onto RUclips searching for the song again this brought me back memories. Thumbs up if you did this.
Because of my comment, I have been watching this video everyday for the last two weeks and never get tired of it. The eighties was fantastic for me. I spent my teenage years there. Even though there was the "cold war", it seemed that people were happier than today. They were more optimistic about the future. I'm not sure, maybe it's just what I think. Does anyone agree with that? O wonder if someday we will live in a truly great time and stay there for good. I hope so...
I was 14 when Electric Dreams came out and I loved it and Heart radio played it yesterday. Don't you just love them moments when memories are ignited :-) xxx
This song makes me feel very emotional. It makes me remember my first and only true love. If only life could have been kinder to us. Kelly, we'll always be together, however far it seems. Together in electric dreams.
This is such a cool tune! yeah the 80's were really great times to be around..now? The music,films,t.v. seemed to be a lot better than today? i miss the 80'.s
Found it from the advert and it's a brilliant song. I've decided if I get married to my boyfriend we shall have this as our first dance and we can dance like gleeful idiots just like we did when we first saw the advert. This song suits us also lyrically, with him being so far away and us being strong friends beforehand.
I loved this film. I went to it with my girlfriend, now already many years my wife. This was a time computers were mythical things and whizzkids were a sort of magicians. It's a very positive film, forgotten but not lost. Great music from the Human League.
I watched this, 'cause damn man. My dad keeps playing old school songs at the house with his magnum on high when I was a kid. LOL, now I'm completely attracted to old school songs.
SEM DUVIDA UMA DAS MELHORES MUSICAS DOS ANOS 80, EMOCIONA MUITO, MUITO MAIS DO QUE AS MUSICAS DOS ULTIMOS 10 ANOS. ME DESCULPE MOÇADA DOS ANOS ATUAIS, MAS QUASE QUE CERTO QUE VOCES NAO VERAM MAIS ISSO...
I want to be that boy again that came home dirty and/or with a bleeding knee after an afternoon of freetime in these great years. I'm only 38 but as the old ones I remember those days better than I do remember what I ate yesterday. It was magic! We ate painted candy and not a single healt regulation against that. Thanks to internet we can fly back to the magical years of our youth.
I always wanted to use that particular puppet on the TV at the end of the video and use it on one of my dream movies: "The War Of My Worlds" and "Tylerpocalypse 1994" and against the bullies at my middle school. Now that's what I call "Revenge is a dish that is best serves cold" according to the Klingon proverb from "Star Trek 2: The Wrath Of Khan" Ricardo Mantolban.....R.I.P.
There is an official VEVO video, but you can't see it in Japan, so I watched it here. I already like it from the intro, and the music video is great with the atmosphere of the time.

If you think that was psychic, you should watch the movie Electric Dreams, this song used as the theme for the movie.
My Joey passed away in 2007 from cancer & this song united yet divided us. RIP Sweet Girl, We'll always remember.
Brilliant do not understand what is not to like bye the way am 65 yrs thank you for sharing this brilliant song
I was a young boy about to fly on my own when this song and movie hit the arrives. What hope there was in the air, the future seemed boundless and all embracing.
Hope you got to see this magical film in the theater back in the days...
The future is ours! Sunnydale class of 1999.
In the next age, things truly will be boundless.
I really feel for the younger ones who never got to experience the 80's. This song just brings it all back for me.
God this makes me want to cry. I remember traveling as a kid. To cities like New York. The excitement of driving into a new city. And there was absolutely no doubt that this was the greatest country in the world. Now, as an adult, I just don't know....things aren't the same.
But this song can evoke powerful reaction and emotion, yes?

i wish i was alive during the 80s. everything fucking sucks now
Phil Oakley really does have a fantastic voice.This will always be a classic.
This song brought a tear to my eye, it was played at one of my close friends funerals. I can just see the curtains closing on her coffin.
This song just screams happiness.
And sadness
Man...this song is just freaking good... I was born in 1975 and these music brings so much memories... The 80's ROCK!!!
This has to be one of the best songs to come out of the eighties - classic!
I'm just a 2 year old when this song came out but I must admit that I love the 80's music scene, the best decade in music history!!!!!!!
I was one, lol
the 80's were a great time to listen to music there was so much diversity it really opened your mind to music
This film, and song, very much represent a situation in my life. And a VERY special someone. They are practically everywhere I listen.
One of the BEST songs of our times! never gets old!
It's nice to see I wasn't the only one who grew up to this movie....I miss the the 80's.
Life seemed so much easier back in the 80's,wish I had a rewind button
I remember the 80's so well. We all danced in random places and were filled wth a sense of optimism and belief that the world was going to be just fine as long as the kids danced in stores and wore bright clothing. We saved the world, our generation.
Top Notch of a song,proves that the 1980's was the best decade EVER!!!!!!

Old, good 80's. Greetings from Poland!
Ah the '80s, it was a blast. This record always makes me happy and then a bit sad, bittersweet.
One of my favourite song of all time! I wasn't even born when it was released!!!!!
This song hasn't aged in 40 years, still a classic
Computers can love too, in electric dreams
I LOVE THIS MOVIE
Edgarrrrrrrrr
Edgar didn't die. He went on to become the Internet
I wanna kiss the computer :,((
This song is simply magical, and always brings emotions I still can't explain. I've seen this movie a million times since the 1980s...
I love that movie I was18 in1984 when the movie came out I did not see it until it was on HBO
Such a Great song
So I grew up in the 80s. I love 80s songs like this. How did this pass by me? I don't ever remember hearing it! How is this possible?
i may have been born in 2011 but this song just brings like deja vu or some feeling in my chest i literally love this song and the movie so much 😭😭🙏🙏
I'm from the 70s and we thought we could predict the future.
I want this Movie on DVD, with German language. 🙂
Great song that sums up the 80's ...great times..
Phil Oakley is a terrific musican, loved the Human League - great era.

this song rocks on sooo many levels.....total trip down memory lane!!!
This song is one of the most wonderful song of the Eighties.

I would give 20 years of my life if I could go back to 1980 and live the entire decade over again. Oh my...
Showw I have no words for today's content and infinite blessings blessings

Ho l' LP ancora guardato in un cassetto !! Stupendo ricordo !!

History of modern music, respect !
I want to be that boy again that came home dirty and/or with a bleeding knee after an afternoon of freetime in these great years. I'm only 38 but as the old ones I remember those days better than I do remember what I ate yesterday.
It was magic! We ate painted candy and not a single healt regulation against that. Thanks to internet we can fly back to the magical years of our youth.
love this movie, brings back so many memories
Best Years and Best Music of all Time! 80's Forever In My Heart!
This song sounds after freedom... and gives you a good mood!!!
I always wanted to use that particular puppet on the TV at the end of the video and use it on one of my dream movies: "The War Of My Worlds" and "Tylerpocalypse 1994" and against the bullies at my middle school. Now that's what I call "Revenge is a dish that is best serves cold" according to the Klingon proverb from "Star Trek 2: The Wrath Of Khan" Ricardo Mantolban.....R.I.P.
There is an official VEVO video, but you can't see it in Japan, so I watched it here. I already like it from the intro, and the music video is great with the atmosphere of the time.
this takes me back to when i was a kid growing up in the 80's. wish i could go back.
Love this.Great dance song I love my 80's...
Best add on tv at the moment!
I have always love this song. And back in the 80's when I saw that movie in cinema it was really hitech. what a genious computer :o)
