Saw Clare in Gregory's Girl and fell in love with her. Then she was on TOTP singing and dancing like a loon and never looked so beautiful. A few years later she turns up on Red Dwarf and I think this girl just keeps haunting me. I'm 52 and very happily married but still love the music of the 80's and along with Kate Bush, Clare singing brings back so many happy memories.

So many people are commenting what a happy uplifting song this is, and it is....on the surface. However, take a look of the lyrics. After singing through the different things she could do to be happy, the final line of the chorus is "All of these things I do / To get away from you" and the song ends with the repeated refrain: "Get away, runaway, Far away / How do I escape from you?". It's actually about an abusive relationship and THAT'S the thing I find so genius about this song - the various emotions it conveys and the dichotomy of the upbeat poppy music in relation to the dark context behind the lyrics. It mirrors real life in a way because so many women are trapped in unhappy abusive relationships, but due to embarrassment or shame they wear the mask of a happy, upbeat public persona. You often never know what someone is dealing with behind closed doors. Brilliant song!

My love for this song is boundless. I was living in a Wolverhampton bedsit at the time, I would listen to it on an old white transistor radio. I'd already come out on the Liverpool gay scene and was feeling a bit under confident about it all. Somehow it was this song completely lifting my spirits getting me involved not just in the gay scenes of both cities, but all the clubbing scenes. I don't really know why, it just did, the magic of pop music on a young adventuring soul. Timeless, touching, uplifting, escaping and what a stunningly story telling vocal, what else did a young gay need? Gx

+Chris Mozer Lucky you ! I turned 18 in 1991. I always said I was born 10 years too late because I loved all the early 80s music when I was a kid. Looking back though I am glad I was a teenager when Stone Roses , Happy Mondays etc. were around. Loved it.. I feel sorry for teenagers today. They are too glued to X box and Play station to even be into music!

Gosh, I just heard that last week whilst shopping with my 14y old daughter at Gap Outlet. I hadn't heard it in years. Took me back right away to my college days here in Chicago. Neo's on N Clark St. Wax Trax Records. Anyone remember those? I had this on 45. and Happy Birthday. I was just a few years older than my daughter is now when I first heard this. Boy, do I feel old. And young again.

@Andy Brown Was that an average night for you? I used to black out when I drank with prescribed medication. I would wake up in the strangest of places notably public parks and church doorways.

I remember listing to this song in my childhood and becoming obsessed with it, but i lost the song years ago. I never knew the name of it but it’s been stuck in my head for years, but I finally found it after searching “i could be happy i could be happy” since those were the only lyrics i understood
