Come on! There's gotta be rockers from the 80s looking this up in 2023 like I did, turn it up when you hear it, there will never be anything like it, glad to be alive at that time era, 80s rock on forever !🤘🤘

Speaking as a guy who was a teen during the 80's, here's the thing I love about 80's music so much. We had huge mega stars and bands like Van Halen, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Cindy Lauper, Prince, The Police, Journey, etc. And you also had these smaller hidden gems like this great song by Giuffria that may not have had the chart success or the airplay the others did, but were still great songs that remain on my playlist today.
Mike " Madman" Markham illistrated how to build a time machine on your back porch ..only as far as we know 2mil watts and some utility power transformers with a couple rotating magnets causes an 800mi lateral trip..with 4 yrs into the future..
We didn't say that at the time of the 80s thinking it seemed to last forever flawless genius call it what u want.Gosh yikes omg scary getting old suxs and this Song in 84 is coming up to 40.Hard to believe half of it is in its 40s
I remember hearing all these great groups and songs like this back in the 80s when I was just getting into boot camp in San Diego we were playing the same songs after boot camp so we wouldn’t get thrashed by the DIs
They also part of that Glam Hair Metal been into lately fix Glamorous and Glorious Gears Genre they delivered.Videos with Vocals,Guitar Solos Mint Drums Stage Takeover that's me and that's 80s
40years no way hard to believe getting old really suxs yikes omg scary gosh who would have thought flawless genius special time we were there having.Time rapidly flying fast to the ends of our lives on Planet Earth.Class of 85-89 it's that's me
Hahaha... I remember pulling over the Lamborghini a lot of times and parking it in the midst of the gameplay just to listen to those great 80s anthems. The Vulture, Emotion and Wave are still my favourites.
@@horatiohornblower170 most of us haven't been alive for 30 years Also 1980 was 40 years ago though I'll let you off because the 2010s might as well not have happened.
We all had everything to look forward to in our lives back then. Now all I can do is look back on those times with the realization that the anticipation of the future was better than the realities and, at least for me, wish I had lingered longer in the moment.
Gordon Gibbons what You said here is awe inspiringly true.....I'm 47 now and am like what the hell happened!? where did the years go...I had a jack blades Night Ranger haircut...tall tan and trim...32w 34L Levi's...endless energy and a will to rock like a wild man..a black 85 Pontiac trans am..a black book that took me on a pussy pilgrimage 4 or 5 surrounding counties wide...now I look like a broken down Goldberg.... 247 lbs. kojack bald..and 38w 32l levis and a belly that no matter how little I eat is always there....I quit smoking...drinking..and doing drugs...grew up ..got married...had kids...got divorced..and seems like I can't go back...and looking forward seems to suck...like the Eddie Money song.." I wanna go back"...and do it all over...but I can't go back I know."
John J. Rambo Hahaha!!!! Thanks for the laugh John! I'm right there with you buddy, almost word for word. Even at work I'm now the older timer looking forward to retiring probably being mocked by the new kids coming thru the door. I see people I grew up with and to a greater or lesser degree, we are all in the same boat. Some look great, some look terrible, some are dead. Others are financially set, others are broke and homeless, most are making there way like we are, day by day. I share your sentiments, I would give anything to go back and do it all over again.
Gordon Gibbons lol....too funny man...but yes we are alive and still going! it's funny that we are thinking about one day retirement is coming...and sooner than we think...in 15 years I'll be 62!? retirement age!!?? lol...but I swear I'll be playing me some Night Ranger and a little Def Leppard till the end! we just got stay alive brother! we can do it! (theme from Rocky playing)...cheers man.. glad I know theres other guys like me from the same time era that can relate to that mess..stay cool bro.....
No worries man. At least we were born at the right time to come up through Jr High, High school, and college with this music. We were lucky to be born at the right time. We are a lucky generation. I look at my nephews and the younger generation, they will never have these type of memories! Just a different time...
wahoodal0896 you said it brother...we lived at the perfect time in history...the 80s were awesome...the music, the women, the food even the money we made with endless overtime back then....there will never be a time as sweet... ever.
I was a kid in middle school when this song was popular, I remember loving it as I skated around in circles in a skating rink with a hairbrush in my back pocket.
I felt that comment! The Skatin’ Gator was our local skating rink complete with laser lights and disco ball. Private Eyes by Hall and Oates is a big memory from then as well.
This is music!! Not the crap that exists today!! Giuffria was a great band!! Very talented and underrated!! Never got the respect that they deserved!! Every member of this band is just awesome!! David's vocals are fantastic!!
I'm a keyboardist. In my 50's, and bought the Giuffria cassette from the old RCA record club just on a whim. Found Angel going backward, and House of Lords later. A while back, my son was watching a video from a Spongebob episode with an epic song, and I INSTANTLY recognized the voice. So I have to ask; How many were led here by hearing "Sweet Victory"?
Guarantee that all 44 who gave thumbs down are under 30 yrs old and couldnt tell the difference between snot and applesauce.Music from the Eighties is timeless. The shit out now is disposable.
I'm 30 (born in 1984), but when I was in high school in the late 90's and early 2000's, I was listening to 70's and 80's music -- specifically rock and metal -- and ignored most of my generation's "hits." At the time I thought the current music of that period was horrible in comparison to the previous generations, but it's only become worse and makes the music I hated back then sound a lot better.
What a voice this man can really really sing. This man is in the leauges with the StevePerrys JamiJamesons and LouGramms.Something todays music lacksis real raw talent without nasty or volgar content..
Music studios today choose their "artists" (I use the term liberally) for how pretty their faces are and how hot their bodies are, period. They figure whatever problem may exist with their voices can be fixed with Autotune. And of course the singers never need to write their own songs either. Today's "music" is nothing more than modeling.
Great song!!! Brings up a lot of memories. Breakups in the 80"s were way different than they are today. (Just my opinion) Love this song. Wish I could go back in time. The 80's will forever be the greatest!!! To all who grew up in the 80's, lets keep the great music "Alive" and make sure to introduce it to the younger generations. They deserve to hear great music.My kids absolutely love the 80's tunes. Keep rocking!!
Tricia Star I think I had the 12” single back in the day. I bought a LOT of those for the reason you listed -the songs I liked weren’t long enough so gimme the remixes & loops of instrumentals 🤘🏻
I listened to three times already this morning it's only 806 am it's very addicting along with alot of the great musicians we had back then I guess as a kid you really don't notice until you are a adult what a great time it was I'd go back today to relive this awesome time
This could be the perfect early eighties song. Everything about it takes me right back in time. The clothes, hair, style of music, everything about this song screams 1984.
She came back! The girl I last saw in 1985, who I always thought of when I heard the line "Your love, I lost along the way . But darling, I'll find you someday" came back 10 years ago. Turns out we both spent those 25 years hoping to see each other again someday. Soon we'll celebrate our 9th wedding anniversary. Love you with all my heart Hun! Always especially enjoyed this song from what was one of my favorite albums in the 80's.
Giuffria should have been huge but had bad management. Just like Greg's old band Angel. Also too much BS with record company executives. What a shame!!
chirag tolia Uhh, only on this song, the rest were just squibly. He should have gone the more melodic route back then and ditch the speed picking, be was too sloppy.
I had no memory of this song or band til this popped up on my recommended. Now I remember loving this song back in the day. Video checklist: Ridiculous hair? Check Ridiculously tight pants? Check Wind machine? Check Fur coat? Check Drummer wearing sunglasses? Check Guy playing two keyboards at the same time? Check I think this could be the Most Perfect Eighties Video Ever. The only thing missing is the gauzy curtains/scarves blowing across the screen in slow motion, but their hair is so glorious it more than makes up for it.
Back in the early 2000's I looked for this band's CD on eBay and it was fetching $90 and early in the RUclips years you weren't able to find this video either. This is a much underrated and obscure band which never received its dues.
For those of you who are wondering, the lady in the video was an actress named April Clough. She was in the first few episodes of T.J. Hooker before being replaced by Heather Locklear in 1982.
Absolutely! Reconnected with a kindred spirit 18 months ago, unfortunately after she had made arrangements to relocate 1,000 miles away; 13 years after my first wife and first true soulmate passed away. The potentially devastating experience might have a happy ending after all. A year of online friendship has revealed to her that I had been planning since the 70's to set up a winter home not far from her new home as soon as my current home & future summer home was paid off next year. Hopefully she'll realize after two summers of 100°+ weather that the idea my grandparents inspired 40 years ago of keeping a house in our hometown could elevate kindred spirits to soulmates.
This song holds many amazing memories for me of meeting the finest lady ive ever met in person while this song was playing, To giuffria, thanks for the memories as 1984 was one of the best years of my life
Giuffria rocked! I got to see them in 1985 at the King Biscuit Flower Hour concert in Milwaukee. I still have the drum stick my brother caught at the show! Such memories......
This is one of those songs I love listening to once in awhile--bringing back those vivid, awesome 80s! I like the hair, and I've never been into long hair! : D
Still a great song and video. David Glen Eisley was a vocal dead-ringer for Steve Perry of Journey, and what a voice!! Always loved this song and still do. 👍🏻
Revisiting this again... late 2021. God...What a time. The Roaring 80's. Just went and searched brief interviews with both Goldy and DG Eisley...and 'Found 'em. Just wanted to hear and see, where they're at now. Both seemed in good spirits and spoke quite well about past things and current things. Another thing i can't help but 'hear...listening to this one ( and certainly no slight to Eisley, as he sounds great on this) but...anyone else hear the Steve Perry' goin' on, in his voice. In this 'song, even?.... Could have easily been a Journey Hit. As if they didn't have enough of those... Lol! All around, just great memories of that golden decade of 'perfect decadence' and 'carefree youthful fun'...we all had. I was a drummer in my 20's... in a band called Northrup...in Sacramento. We were showcasing all over California... Johnny Edwards was our singer, who later went on to Foreigner for a time. All now...in a galaxy, far, far away.....
Saw these guys with Deep Purple Jan ‘85 what a treat……and DP was louder than any rock band I have ever heard live….side note saw KISS in the same week. Ears rang for 3 wks.
I forget this song and band ever existed for about five years at a time. Then something brings me back to it, and I remember every nuance of the song, the lyrics and the video like it was yesterday. And it's that "soundtrack of my life mix tape" thing we all talk about having, but this one is different. Then I cry tears of nostalgia, remembering how magical my life was back then when my mom bought this album for me for Christmas 1984, my first year out of high school. Yeah, I really did have magic happening, above and beyond just what was perceived in my head. Yeah, I've got stories. And I love it when the incredible feelings of awe and joy and gratitude of my tremendous gifts of magic or luck are still so preserved in the time capsule of this band, this video, this song. What an an incredible life I've had.
I had a blast in the 80s live concerts all the time even our local schools rocking to speed metal.miss my youthful years.but thank you Lord for even making it this far.had a blast .and alot of memories.thank you.keep rocking👍🙏❤️💯♾️
Pure 80's rock......one of my very favoirites of the genre, and one of my favorites of any genre ! Outstanding song......outstanding vocal......has stood the test of time, and has helped make the music form the 80's, the absolute best music ever made. Thanks, guys ! :-)
Is anyone else still jamming out to this great song in 2024??? ❤

Yup!!! Right now on this snowy morning, Columbus OH.

Hell yes 😎
I never realized how much Giuffria sounds like JOURNEY, nice to revisit this “classic”!!! The ‘80s Power Ballad lives on!! Lol
Especially on the harmonies.
Come on! There's gotta be rockers from the 80s looking this up in 2023 like I did, turn it up when you hear it, there will never be anything like it, glad to be alive at that time era, 80s rock on forever !🤘🤘
Heard it on the radio yesterday. My first thought was this a White Snake song? Had to look it up as I don't recall this one from the 80's? I dig it!
@@ps4peace Was it on Hair Nation?
@@gcord21 No. Local rock station.

Love this music… Release date 1984. Early teens without a care. The years they fly, I wish I was there… again.

We didn't say that at the time of the 80s thinking it seemed to last forever flawless genius call it what u want.Gosh yikes omg scary getting old suxs and this Song in 84 is coming up to 40.Hard to believe half of it is in its 40s
I remember hearing all these great groups and songs like this back in the 80s when I was just getting into boot camp in San Diego we were playing the same songs after boot camp so we wouldn’t get thrashed by the DIs
I was 15 when I heard this song okay I I couldn't remember the song when I seen it I was 15 when it came out okay
More importantly, Jesus saves sinners. God bless you fellow rocker
In 1984, I was just 12 yrs old listening to good rock bands on the radio like Giuffria.
I terribly miss my youth.
Try being 53 years old, its even worse.
I was 17 and it seems like it was yesterday.
I wasn't born for another 5 years lol
Pah. Try being 60.
Ditto. Years go by so quickly. 17 in '84.....
I loved this song so much back then that I named my Doberman puppy Giuffria. Everyone thought she was the coolest dog ever!!! Long live the 80’s!!!
Long live the 80s my friend!!
They also part of that Glam Hair Metal been into lately fix Glamorous and Glorious Gears Genre they delivered.Videos with Vocals,Guitar Solos Mint Drums Stage Takeover that's me and that's 80s

Still jamming in October of 2024. I was a junior in High School when this song came out. It was awesome then and it's awesome today, 40 years later!🤘🏼
You know it’s the 80s when we’re playing two keyboards at the same time.
Your comment made me laugh😆
Hahaha! I was looking for this comment!! That's so funny!
So Awesome!
Perfect hair was mandatory
Your exactly right about 2 keyboards at the same time. You don't see talent like that today.
This ranks in my top 5 rock ballads. Pure 80s greatness

Totally!
Bonham WAIT FOR YOU is also right the hell up there. 80s bands and music were the best.
Kind of had that Journey vibe

Giuffria was one of the underrated bands of the 80's. With a spot on load of musicians. Shouldve had a long shelf life! They rawked
Giuffria should have been huge but had bad management. Just like Greg's old band Angel. Also too much BS with record company executives. What a shame!!
@Mr G Hi. They are named after Gerg Giuffria who played keyboards. Greg also played with glam rock band Angel.
Greg also played with the band House Of Lords.
Yea but he was very smart and patent some high tech shit we use today
gianni t
Angel was a great band back in the 70s. They had a killer epic prog rock track called Tower.
Damn! I had forgotten how really good this song was,and still is. Brings back a lot of good memories too!
Craig Goldy knows how to put a lot of taste and tone into just a few notes when soloing.
yeah i agree. i listened to his stuff when i was learning guitar myself
chirag tolia Uhh, only on this song, the rest were just squibly. He should have gone the more melodic route back then and ditch the speed picking, be was too sloppy.
and to use a slide when nobody really did that especially with this type of music
Craig Goldy is also featured in the song "We're Stars" by Hear N Aid
Kinda where I’m at right now in my life at 54 years old.

Can't believe this was from 84. There was a lot of awesome movies and music that year.
They were one of the most underrated bands of the 80s. I was 17 when this song came out. Still like it today. Miss my youth.
I was also 17 when this song was released
For those of you who are wondering, the lady in the video was an actress named April Clough. She was in the first few episodes of T.J. Hooker before being replaced by Heather Locklear in 1982.
According to IMDB, her name is now "April Giuffria"
THAT'S AUSOM INFO
1984 ....great times.....I wish I could go back!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who misses the 80s , they were my Jr high an high school days, I'm the old guy now who cry's when I hear a 80s song.
When music and music videos were timeless!! I miss the 80s!!
I still have their album! This is such a great song and under rated/appreciated Band!
Thanks Bill!! Very cool thing to say!!
I have their cassette tape.
David Glen Eisley should perform Sweet Victory at the Super Bowl like if you agree

Absolutely! Reconnected with a kindred spirit 18 months ago, unfortunately after she had made arrangements to relocate 1,000 miles away; 13 years after my first wife and first true soulmate passed away. The potentially devastating experience might have a happy ending after all. A year of online friendship has revealed to her that I had been planning since the 70's to set up a winter home not far from her new home as soon as my current home & future summer home was paid off next year. Hopefully she'll realize after two summers of 100°+ weather that the idea my grandparents inspired 40 years ago of keeping a house in our hometown could elevate kindred spirits to soulmates.
Oh gawd!
That was a beautiful comment! Should be in the song!!!!😘
Still have this song on a cassette single. Remember those?
An under rated band with a bunch of great songs. Especially this one... 80's had the best music across the board...
This song holds many amazing memories for me of meeting the finest lady ive ever met in person while this song was playing, To giuffria, thanks for the memories as 1984 was one of the best years of my life
Takes me back to a time that's gone forever
that just punched me in the feels.
I was 18 in 1984 what a fucking awesome time to grow up 🤘
Quintessential 80’s. Miss the decade, every single day.
Greg Giuffria is the best hard rock keyboardist in the world.
The band is named after keyboardist?
@@lolaflores5388 Indeed. Greg lived in Las Vegas for many years; really good guy and a very talented keyboardist.
Lol . Jon lord don airey, Steve walsh,Rik wakemen, Ken hensley
@@jerrywoods4066 You got that right! Ken Hensley was my own personal favorite. ( R.I P.)
@@lindasmith6316 mine was Jon lord from purple.
This tune takes me back to good times like no other WOW what a time!
Brings back sweet memories...nothing like the 80's music. This music is and was the best!!
Still a killer tune after all these years..Guiffria was classic and underrated...
One of the most underrated Rock bands
Giuffria rocked! I got to see them in 1985 at the King Biscuit Flower Hour concert in Milwaukee. I still have the drum stick my brother caught at the show! Such memories......
Amen Bro
This is one of those songs I love listening to once in awhile--bringing back those vivid, awesome 80s! I like the hair, and I've never been into long hair! : D
The 80s lion manes were so beautiful!
There were a lot of bands in the 80’s that didn’t get the radio play or recognition.Giuffria was one of those bands.
Love how the singer belts it out. Powerful !
One of the best songs from the early 80's
....My most dangerous years.
何度聞いても素晴らしい。壮大な空間が広がるような、荘厳な響き！夏聞くと涼しくなる。
I’ve always liked songs that rocked hard but end mellow. This is one of them! We need more bands like Guiffria 🎸
Heard this on the radio yesterday - a blast from the past!!
greg giuffria of angel! possibly the best rock keyboard player of all time!
+TheTruthseeker59 Geoff Downes might be the best,this guy is good though.
Don't forget Rick Wakeman
or Derek Sherinian, Keith Emerson, Felix Hanemann, or Josh Silver
or paul taylor!
Jordan Rudess of Dream Theater...hands down! :)...but, I always did love Gregg's playing, especially with Angel.
I still turn up this. Song as Loud as I can! On my tv! On my phone! Still rocking the 80’s and even though I’ll be 56
OMFG!!!...I've been trying to find this song for like 30 Years...I had it on cassette tape but couldn't remember name...So freakin' happy right now!!!
Nothing like the 80's. Best time.
This is nothing short of totally awesome ! I had forgotten all about it until I heard it, and then my teenage brain knew the words right away ;-)
Still a great song and video. David Glen Eisley was a vocal dead-ringer for Steve Perry of Journey, and what a voice!! Always loved this song and still do. 👍🏻
I don't really hear Steve Perry in his voice. To me, he sounds closer to David Coverdale.
I agree with you. He sounds a lot like Steve Perry . And looks similar to Coverdale . Great voice
@@yaboyblacklist2431 LOL he LOOKED like Coverdale, but sounded absolutely nothing like him.
Revisiting this again... late 2021. God...What a time. The Roaring 80's. Just went and searched brief interviews with both Goldy and DG Eisley...and 'Found 'em. Just wanted to hear and see, where they're at now. Both seemed in good spirits and spoke quite well about past things and current things. Another thing i can't help but 'hear...listening to this one ( and certainly no slight to Eisley, as he sounds great on this) but...anyone else hear the Steve Perry' goin' on, in his voice. In this 'song, even?.... Could have easily been a Journey Hit. As if they didn't have enough of those... Lol! All around, just great memories of that golden decade of 'perfect decadence' and 'carefree youthful fun'...we all had. I was a drummer in my 20's... in a band called Northrup...in Sacramento. We were showcasing all over California... Johnny Edwards was our singer, who later went on to Foreigner for a time. All now...in a galaxy, far, far away.....
This is frikin music.love it .good job gentleman.well done.
Thanks Ron!!
Giuffria ROCKS! Wish they had more than 2 albums. Yes, another awesome band from the 80's : ]
They have Giuffria 3 release a couple of year ago look on internet.
Another great hit from the 80s.....thankful to be alive during that decade.....
Saw these guys with Deep Purple Jan ‘85 what a treat……and DP was louder than any rock band I have ever heard live….side note saw KISS in the same week. Ears rang for 3 wks.
found this 80's hard rock compilation cd from the local library years back.had this song on there,played this tune over and over
Saw them with Van Halen on March 31, 1986 in Birmingham AL.... have loved them ever since!! Timeless music!!
This sound would have fit perfectly on Journeys Raised on Radio album.
Thank goodness I'm not alone!
Yes!
This song never gets old, tears me up every time I hear it...... one of my ALL TIME favorites!!!
THIS SONG HAS A SPECIFIC MEANING TO ME.....ABOUT A GIRL I LOVE TO THE MOON & BACK!!
IF ONLY SHE KNEW HOW MUCH I STILL CARE ABOUT HER 5YRS LATER....
@@Frankie-qb9fh Awww, me too! Isn’t that amazing how a song can do that?! ♥️💯✨🤘🏻
This disc is sitting in front of me right now. I love Guiffria , House of Lords , And ANGEL ! GREGG was the MAN !
HA! Gotcha beat. I have the cassette...and yes I have several ways to play it!
I saw Giuffria open for Deep Purple back in 1985 Tingley Coliseum, Albuquerque. Great show!
I forget this song and band ever existed for about five years at a time. Then something brings me back to it, and I remember every nuance of the song, the lyrics and the video like it was yesterday. And it's that "soundtrack of my life mix tape" thing we all talk about having, but this one is different. Then I cry tears of nostalgia, remembering how magical my life was back then when my mom bought this album for me for Christmas 1984, my first year out of high school. Yeah, I really did have magic happening, above and beyond just what was perceived in my head. Yeah, I've got stories. And I love it when the incredible feelings of awe and joy and gratitude
of my tremendous gifts of magic or luck are still so preserved in the time capsule of this band, this video, this song. What an an incredible life I've had.
Oh hellyea 80' rock forever
Great song. Wish i was young again
The hair in this group is most spectacular!
The first few times I heard this I was CONVINCED it was Steve Perry. What a great song.
Também achei amigo que era
I thought it was Steve Perry myself. It does sound like a song Journey would sing
I had a blast in the 80s live concerts all the time even our local schools rocking to speed metal.miss my youthful years.but thank you Lord for even making it this far.had a blast .and alot of memories.thank you.keep rocking👍🙏❤️💯♾️
"Call to the Heart" permeates the center of my soul with every strum, chord, note and pitch-perfect head of hair.
Very well put Ms. Deborah. I find myself listening to this song almost daily.
I wonder what Giuffria thinks of these awful days. This music gives me respite in 2021.
A powerful song even after all these years.
2:50 She sure could light up a room! ⚡🙌⚡
Heard this while jamming in the car to Sirius. Can't believe I forgot this gem! 80's how I miss you!
Pure 80's rock......one of my very favoirites of the genre, and one of my favorites of any genre ! Outstanding song......outstanding vocal......has stood the test of time, and has helped make the music form the 80's, the absolute best music ever made. Thanks, guys ! :-)
i found this album in vinyl, brand new and unopened a few weeks ago at a flea mrkt for 3.00.
