[@kenc4554]

50 years ago, this January, I fell in love with a beautiful girl I saw walking down a staircase. We had been in teachers' college since the fall, but had never seen each other. It was love at first sight. We both stopped in our tracks and smiled at each other. She passed away over four years ago, in the summer. This song is so meaningful for me because 'Since she's been gone, I've been in a trance.' It is so sad to think that she is not in this world any more. 50 years ago, almost to the day, and it feels like yesterday.

Come And Follow Me by Max Carl from Short Circuit should have been a hit too

[@zghani2410]

This song has a very deep meaning, is excellently made, and will forever be a timeless classic! The group as others have already indicated is definitely underrated and should be recognized for their contribution pop/rock music!

I am 70 as well...and I still am grieving my Beloved Wife who left this world almost 6 years ago. This song touches me so very deeply.

[@kenmessenger9483]

The further we get from the music of this era, the more I realize how lucky I was to grow up in the 80’s. There are songs like this one that are just flawless.

[@germilesbriggs1678]

THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST, "UNDERRATED" SONG EVER.... BADASS

[@retiuup3753]

what?

[@bricutt]

I agree

[@paulandersen9492]

How many of us wish we had been able to get a second chance after doing something stupid?

[@34GeorgiaBoy]

Duhhhh.... Only everybody

[@Keepsakes100]

Second would turn into a 3rd, 4th, and 5th.

[@shaneraine8081]

@TyetheRebel That's exactly what I was thinking.

[@shaneraine8081]

More than likely you knew exactly what you were doing and decided to do it anyways. Which isn't an uniformed or ignorant decision. Just a selfish one. So you don't deserve a second chance.

Max Carl just nailed it with his emotion in his vocals. Perfection!

[@sheilabrooks4848]

Yes he did!! That's what makes the song so great because he sang it right from his soul!!

[@dwyatt975]

The lead singer has such broad prominent facial features, he reminds me of this family of Mormons that I knew back in the late 90's who had very similar features.

[@kimberleyfreeth8054]

Yes I totally agree with you!

I was born in 96 and I'm 24 yrs today and I love these type of music and my father was born in 62 and he knows all these song very well.He passed away in 2014 which is 6 yrs ago and every time I hear these songs it just brings back a lot of memories of him I miss him so much.RIP JOHNNIE BOYSIE LOGAN 28-04 -1962 -12-07-2014

I still remember buying their album on cassette - I was 15 at the time and played it over and over in my Walkman on the way to school and back.

[@psychodelicrock12]

I bought the CD 3 years ago and have enjoyed it since. Meanwhile I want to buy the album Bone Against Steel that came afterwards.

[@xennial80sxberner]

I got this song on an 80s multi artist cassette tape when I was 10 in 1994 (80s greatest rock hits vol 5, from the heart). No real point to that other than to say you don't have to be Gen X to have done that

[@joachimcorneliussen2008]

One of the most underrated groups in music history.Doesn't get any better than this,💕

[@TheAntsh]

I've never heard about this group and I'm from 70s. Believe me, I've heard all 80s music worth listening to. The fact this group evaded me is a proof it is fairly rated. Cheesy lyrics, third rate melodiy, generic 80s arrangement - it's a pretty mediocre song from average musicians.

[@CurlyFromTheSwirly]

​@@TheAntsh Yet here you listening to it. It's obvious not the best band, but it's a good song.

I just sent this song to a girl I’m so in love with, yet she left me for one of my best friends a couple of months ago and is living with him now. I listen to this song everyday thinking about her and I can’t help but get teary eyed every time because I can relate to almost every word in it. I so want her back for a second chance, and us forget about the past… because Shawna I love you! Since you’ve been gone I feel my life slipping away… Don’t say it’s over because I just can’t say goodbye….

Hands down.....one of the very best 'heart break' songs to come out of the 80s'! The powerful/impassioned lyrics and _especially_ the minimal & understated....yet dramatically cutting to the bone...weeping guitar leads throughout is what sold this song and kept it at the top of the charts for multiple weeks back then! _WHEW!_
