[@dannyrod2170]

Wooow.... Flashback to my fantastic year in America back in 1984 (exchange student from Denmark) ... Thanks great music.

[@gsxrbuckeye]

Im a 19 year old Marine deployed to Afghanistan. My Sgt is like 38 and he got me hooked on the 80's. I wont listen to anything else now! I love it. Semper Fi.

RIP John Wetton Co-Founder of Asia (Singer, songwriter, Bassist). The songs: Only Time Will Tell, Don't Cry and The Smile Has Left Your Eyes from Asia are etched upon my heart. Never was nor will be music like this ever again. Thank you for the wonderful music John Wetton.

[@4wheelerDJ]

It's astounding how many great musicians we've lost in the past 14 months alone.

[@infocosmos48]

I've been looking for this song. I remember the days of 20-year-old. Nice Asia!

[@60mark61]

It reached #10 on the Billboard Hot 100 (pop) chart after it was released in Auguest 1983.

[@60mark61]

August! won't edit

[@Muffett53]

How did I miss this...oh yea...I was going thru a lot of crap back then. I found this song because the most wonderful man was here and knew this song was right for me...and us. He's THE one for me...no doubt. I love you Pete....xxx ooo

[@Bsbcrue67]

I am so glad my teens were through the 80's. Some great music that is head and shoulders above most of the modern tripe we have to suffer.

[@FrevrYng07]

80s were the BEST!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@summerrn8073]

Rest In Peace John Wetton. I was just a teenager when this song came out but it was one of my favorites. You won't be forgotten

[@soldierrulz]

Holy crap! It's been FOREVER since I've heard this! I sang this song to my very first girlfriend! Jeez, the memories!

[@RPMilitia]

The drums on this song are so epic. I remember back in the day with my Sony walkman magnifing the drums. Totally awesome

[@muzkman5]

one of the best asia songs,ever to be released for video........

[@jeffpokorski1801]

This is Asia's best song!!! and hardly anyone knows it, or remembers it.

[@rrip1]

This is without a doubt Asia's best song. I listened to it over and over in 1983 I think it was. And somehow that cassette still works.

[@RobertCousland]

It's my favorite as well. In fact, I have always like the LP Alpha better than Asia. Both are great albums but there has always been something special about Alpha. I can listen to the whole LP from start to finish, over and over again.

[@reiver569]

Nearly one million people on KZbin do. :)

[@bullymom3071]

this has to be my favorite Asia song!!

[@99davinci]

i wanna buy this album again

[@maria3845]

80's were Awsome.. Love Asia.. Brings back memories from hs.. Can we go back in time? When things were good.

[@chrisranz2714]

Asia don't cry I can't cry over all the instrumentals are superb and the vocals are right on point . what a terrific terrific sounding band i , f you agree give me a hoot and God bless the 80s have a good day.ll👍👍👍

[@rich2365]

Hey, remember when MTV actually played videos? This was a blast from the past. It's been at least twenty years since I've seen this video.

[@AWalkOnDirt]

By far the best song. Back in the day they had such a big soaring sound. Loved to blast the volume!

[@matthewtoddadcock8151]

One of the greatest strongest nicest sounding iconic influential sounding songs I’ve ever heard in my life! #HOF!

[@genewebb8396]

very sad to hear of the passing of john wetton of ASIA.. another for rock and roll heaven.. great british band and sound.. one of their biggest hits. thanks for sharing ALL your talents for the world. RIP john

[@art.s9421]

I don't know why I love this video so much - just an amazing fragment of musical work by ASIA!!!

[@TonyToolTown]

[@squidhound00001]

Love love this song ! One of my all time favorites!!

[@SHS854EVER]

god do i miss the 80's so much.They played this song at class day in high school it seems like it was yesterday.Long live the 80's and besides awsome music,if not one of the best era for movies.My favorite is Better off Dead man even to this day i laugh my ass off

[@craftyisascraftydoes]

Aw man....rest in peace, Mr. Wetton. Thanks for all the lovely music, and peace to those grieving your loss.

[@SHS854EVER]

a dope slap off the side of their heads.I was just so happy to be a teenager back then and i miss it so much

[@sctyrox607]

Underrated band...classic eighties all the way...RIP John!

[@dmcloren]

They are high on my list!!

[@jamesvradenburg3712]

No decade EVER in music will be as great as the 80s!!!!! Please bring me a time machine so I can go back when it was so much better. Everything was better back then.

[@stephengiorgis7072]

RIP John. Thank you for the Great Tunes!

[@tomcat69fl]

This was great stuff. Summers watching MTV in the 80's was so much fun. I long for the days when things were simpler and everybody had fun. I am with you LeaperChad7.

[@darrylwillett8359]

Hard not to cry when your teenage memories are being taken away. R.I.P. John, and thanks.

[@99davinci]

not only you Mr Darryl

[@jasonkhan854]

Agreed!😢 I wish I could go back!

[@dollsway8816]

Darryl Willett You are so RIGHT, it makes you want to cry!!!

[@randsum]

Aye, I’m still listening to it in my teenage years

[@jimdavin43]

Great song great video, Great time to grow up the eighties.

[@Davai007]

One of the BEST Prog Rock bands, RIP John 🙏 thank you for the music 🎶🎶

[@SpurredDevilSC]

I had SOOO forgotten about this song. One of the forgotten treasures of the 80s!

[@darrylwillett8359]

A very under rated super group...love ASIA!

[@plushrunner]

This is the best music! I am 42 and still go back to this... When I like a new song I listen to it for a couple of weeks and quickly get sick of it.

[@popgun5247]

I saw Asia on their 25th anniversary tour. When they played this, neither Steve nor Geoff sang backup on the chorus. On the second chorus, I cupped my hands around my mouth and sang/shouted the high harmony part. I was in the 2nd row but wasn't sure if John Wetton could hear me, but by the end of the song everyone was singing it, and I could see John smiling. A nice memory I will always have as I say goodbye to John, a prog-rock legend. RIP.

[@AuroraBorealis170]

pop gun oh god, here comes a tear

[@jellos2504]

Videoclip reminds me the movie ISHTAR, one of the highest flop in the business... I like very much Wetton but does'nt take care very much of is body... I miss him.

[@panzerrat]

The Album cover alone was worth the price of admission!

[@zagagrad]

Great song. What a great idea to get all these great musicians into one band.

[@Dolores5000]

Dang i don't recall ever seeing this video, it's SO cool to see all the Asia Boys in their prime!

[@CrimsonTide923]

thanks for the great memories I remember listening to this song in in 1983 with my girlfriend Kathy and telling her I'll always remember her because of this song. Sadly she passed in 2005 and I'll never forget her.

[@WindwolfBlog]

+Randy Elliott Awooo !! Now she can run with the heavenly pack.

[@5171967cafk]

Utter AWESOMENESS ! Time machine to the 80's anyone???

[@ericlewis217]

born in 82, so I remember this from about 86/87, my dad had recorded this off mtv onto an audio cassette and we'd play in the car I thought I was the greatest thing. wasn't until the 2000s that I remembered who sang it, forgot about the song for many years, asia has since become one of my fav bands from the 80s.

[@xxkailexx]

Im 23 and my dad used to play Asia, and Thunder all the time wen I was growing up and I love it! Its so much better than some of the shit that is about now x

[@barmbeks]

Brings back so many memories. Really a masterpiece of rock music!!! Still love their LPs!!!

[@dollsway8816]

Today is My 47th Birthday and it makes me want to cry!!!!!!! 6-6-2017!!! Always loved this song!!!!! My Teen Years In the 80S!!!!!

[@donaldlewis1728]

John Wetton stands among the best of musicians which we all lost this past year in 2016. Glenn Frey, David Bowie, Prince, Maurice White, B.B. King etc... I will always love the late 1970s and early 1980s music with which Wetton really contributed the explosion of a newer and even more explosive and incredible sound. Sounds of my youth which I will always remember!!! God Bless and play your talent for GOD, John Wetton!!!! Amen.

[@DiverBand]

Huge asia fan here. here is the story behind the video. This was Asia's "B Movie Tribute" to Raiders of the Lost Ark. JJ Jackson said this when he premiered the video on Friday night late in July of 1983. It's just pure fun....sure it's a little hokey....but the band didn't take it too seriously. It's a great song and actually tells a story. Remember when videos used to do that! Enjoy!

[@antoniodeluca2251]

Grandi ASIA, bellissimo video, praticamente mette in guardia dalle donne.......occhi aperti e c......... stretto. Era la sigla finale di DISCORING, creata dal mitico GIANNI BONCOMPAGNI. Che ricordi, avevo 17 anni, che periodo splendido, purtroppo non torna più. Anche perché ora le canzoni ed i cantanti non trasmettono più niente.

[@isolirionband7300]

Beato te che hai vissuto il periodo d'oro!

[@isolirionband7300]

Beato te!! Periodo d'oro!

[@diegoreds]

This is one of the Unknown Hits of the 80's... have it on my Work out jams on I pod.. Pumped...

[@ClassicTVMan1981X]

This was Asia's second and final U.S. top 10 hit, reaching #10 on the Billboard Hot 100 9-17-83.

[@jrock2264]

I remember begging my friend to turn in MTV the summer of 83 before I went to college, he had cable, we couldn't afford it. This was on constantly. Loved ASIA.

[@あらんもこ-h3o]

It is a song that gives us the courage to live. After all the Asia's songs are wonderful.

[@elliekatesmith6363]

well said. x

[@DarleneAshleyCheleze]

a song that was a part of my first romance and my freshman summer in school. those wer sure the divine days.

[@walkergillette3918]

music reached it's zenith in the 80's, it's been down hill since then

[@trashpigeon1164]

It's just different flavors for different time periods. I would argue that there's music that comes out today, which is widely agreed to be one of the worst time periods for music, that's waaay better than some 80's music. It just comes down to personal taste and knowledge of what's going on during a specific time period, I bet if you looked a bit more you could find some really good music that's coming out right now.

[@ANT96-x8d]

Back when music videos were a true art instead of a commercial product or corporate sellout.

[@phat80]

90's music was a way better...

[@ANT96-x8d]

90s had too much techno. At least 80s Synth and New Wave had a somewhat natural energy in comparison to today.

[@phat80]

@@ANT96-x8d Maybe for you it was techno years but for others it's plenty of good rock works, some of them are still the best ones, the rise of death, black, prog metal, sympho metal in late 90s, the time of true alternative bands. It was time when many music albums were good from start to finish where bad songs just didn't exist. I think a plenty of greatest songs of all time were made exactly in 90s. Many new styles ans substyles emerged then too. More then other decades.

[@pcmcguire18504]

So fortunate to have grown up in the 80s.

[@englishsunset]

God, for so many reason's I miss the 80's!

[@fr6313]

Remember this one.....I was just starting college ...what memories...Music like this makes me happy and takes me back to a better time in life

[@pegasus2287]

There comes a point in your life, When you realize, Who matters, who never did, And who won't Anymore. And who Always will, So don't worry about the people from your past. There's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.

Seconded!

Mr. Coleman, you should market that statement, it's incredible. One of the most pointed, direct, and meaningful things I have ever read. Wish I had heard it 20 years ago!

[@ArtchieT]

Thanks for adding this HQ version of this song!

[@patricklena9062]

RIP JOHN WETTON, music that defined my youth. thanks for the memories!

[@budtib]

Come on! The best LP I've ever had. I can"t remember how many times I've played this vinyl.

[@harleyhjerpe4460]

When my wife left with my kids I listened to this song over and over- I can’t even begin to explain the deep sadness this song holds for me

[@janetjones1750]

I'm sorry to hear about your situation hun. I listen to this song every day. Please stay positive and look ahead, things will get better for you. I'm rooting for you!

[@TheEarlymtv]

if you had Mtv in the summer of 83. this was on all the time. great stuff.

[@rickyshaw4224]

Just played this for the first time in 20 yrs.....Still sounds so fresh

This video came out while i was on vacation as a teen and I watched it every hour I was near a TV in West Hartford CT, which was like a foreign land to a California kid...

[@sevensolaris]

It's a crime that this type of rock music had such a short shelf life...and yet hip hop has lasted over 30 years.

We will all miss your beautiful voice, John. R.I.P.

Indeed we will.. got me through many a hard day's work..

[@dampergoldenrod4156]

Songs like this remind me of young friends and people I happened to cross paths with from decades ago. Wish I could relive those memorable past times with those people again or someone like them but it won't happen in my remaining time. Goodbye John Wetton and thank you for the music.

Ännu en låt som bevisar att 1980-talet rockar. Denna låt är utan tvekan en av Asias bästa. Yet another song that proves that the 1980's rocks. This song is arguably one of Asia's best.

[@tonyrome3119]

John Wetton, I was fortunate to see him with UK in 1978,in Painters Mill, in Owings Mill, MD one of my greatest concerts. he was a great talent, great song writer and composer, in prog rock and with Asia.

[@julieschultz6363]

I love singing along with all their songs.

[@diegoreds]

This is one of the Unknown Hits of the 80's... have it on my Work out jams on I pod.. Pumped... also "Only time will tell." stuck in my head

[@TonyGPizza]

These guys caught lightning in a bottle and got as far as they did for the bands they were in before Asia. That said this was a good song and made top 10 in summer 1983 but the first album from them is the one to get.

[@catolog96]

Ah, the 80s. Good times, GOOD times!

Music absolutely matches the lyrics. Triumphant drumming. Baby, you've had hard times....don't cry.... It's alright...

[@Jacques_S]

I just found out that the lead singer passed in 2017. That is so sad. I really liked this group when I was young in the 80's. It was in a time when the music was actually worth listening to, unlike today. You could hear the music and watch a great video. It just seems that so many of these bands are losing members. That just makes me feel really sad and even more nostalgic. RIP. :(

[@dollsway8816]

JAM S I AGREE IT MAKES ME A BIT SADDEN!!

[@brucewatson8750]

And just like that I'm back in the 7th grade hearing this for the first time. Went out and spent grass cutting money on the record album. Then the cassette and a few years later on the CD.
