[@martha6018]

I thought I was the only one in the world that loved this movie and its soundtrack.

[@michellesdao7105]

Love Kristy in anything she does. What a voice!

[@tarabrewer1552]

When i was 9 yrs old in 83, my neighbor had this movie and i borrowed it and basically stole it. I watched it so much i wore it out. I know every word of every line of the movie by ❤ and needless to say of course the soundtrack! Mabel & Fredric (without a K) forever ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@amylancaster5959]

Im soooo glad im not the only weirdo that Loves this movie !!! passed it down to my nephews loving it..so, there are five young men out there who will remember this and thier crazy aunt lol

[@vanessahenry7238]

Nope love it as well and these two songs.

[@amberbrown8893]

The way I fell for this movie when I was like 4 I’m 21 now😭 the time went so fast. And I still watch it all the time

[@selenayates1102]

I haven’t heard this song in years and I still remember the words

[@daydayh7671]

Oh my gosh! 12 year old me loving this song❤️❤️❤️🌹

[@Sunkist161]

Who isn't in love with these two? I wasn't even alive when this came out yet I grew up watching it and loving it.

[@paulapabla7329]

It’s no Titanic but I really loved it when I was a teen and I still love the music!❤️❤️

[@XxowendanxX]

When he's staring at her image in the water, reminiscent of Olivia Newton John - "Hopelessly Devoted To You"

[@staceyrobertshaw7802]

This movie is 100% why I’m 40 and single. This is where all of my vital lessons on what love is came from. Christopher Atkins is just perfect

[@reneezancewoman]

Ah ha Haha. I feel you girl. This and the 80s in general set the bar high.

[@pbamse]

Loser.

[@heatherkarlson4801]

Underrated 80s flick. I loved this movie growing up. Plus, Christopher Atkins is handsome, no?

[@lando9flo]

This and Xanadu

[@M509pop]

Man I need this soundtrack

[@KillerOrangeCat]

I have this movie memorized. I grew up in a poor family. Sometimes we didn't have food for days. My sister and I would always watch this movie every night and it always made us happy. I love it now and always

[@anikiyamamoto3297]

Are you my doppelganger?

[@MateoHumada-sd8vo]

One of my favorites grew up watching it still watch it to this day love the soundtrack

[@Anya-heart9]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@martha6018]

My guilty pleasure! Thought I was the only one.......

[@Jen-jy5rb]

omg I loved this movie when I was a kid. These two songs were my favorite from the movie.

[@chancetre7]

I was sooo in love with Kristy McNichol for the longest time. As a kid I tried to watch all of her movies this was one of my favorites .

[@this_Joe_Smith]

Ditto! Same! 💕

[@larry8013]

I love these songs, I think that I watched this movie every time HBO played it.

[@this_Joe_Smith]

Me too!! I would look ahead in the HBO guide to see if it'd be on that month

[@Yngsatchvai]

Back when HBO showed 3 movie in rotation a day. I remember those days well. If you caught one early enough you could watch it 4 times

[@chriswilson7062]

Same here

[@vanessahenry9376]

My band and I used to sing this version of Pirate King and Major General to a metal audience and yes it was metal versions!

[@mohammadlouis3377]

I realize it is kind of randomly asking but does anyone know of a good website to stream newly released movies online ?

[@terrybenthall6192]

Only if we could turn back the hands of time. I want to go back to the 80's.

[@sherachavez1497]

This is one of the most under thought about ones we can talk about now and the songs and music are wonderful i love it too! Im a weiredo too and i love it always! Its a Blast to watch over and over now!

[@azmyleo67]

Great movie & beautiful songs. Watched it in 1982 & is still one of my all time favorite movie.

[@michaelwaldrop7094]

Love this movie....I saw it in a theater when it was released. The song "pumpin and blowin" is still fire.

[@georgejetson7240]

love this movie im 42 male love it! got the original double lp record set! and a movie poster from the movie autographed from christopher atkins!

[@this_Joe_Smith]

Omg wow! A signed poster!! Great job! I've got the double vinyl soundtrack as well - had the 45 single of "How Can i Live.." Since the 83/84 days ...I'm almost 46 now, but when i discovered it at 10/11 years old, it fed my heart&soul.

[@veganfoodconfidential67]

was surprised i'm not alone (not a 42 male, 40 female). I just woke up and i had the MUSIC of First Love in my head. I have listened to it when I was a child...and I don't even know where to begin how to look for that song, all I knew was that the song is from a movie about a boy and girl... so I googled "soundtrack blue lagoon my first love" (I thought it was blue lagoon or something around that time period) and the first on the search result was actually the soundtrack from The Pirate Movie and I was effing glad to have found it! googling the movie I realised my sister has got to have rented a VHS copy of the movie cos the movie came out at '82. Anyway...weird I'm listening to that song NOW lol

[@georgejetson7240]

@@veganfoodconfidential67 they dont make movies like this anymore when i was in the us navy i was lucky to visit australia (where the movie was filmed at!)

[@jamesfoster3001]

A true derivative of the teenage era of my life! I'll give anything 2 live those days just 1 more time!!!

[@leebryan2316]

I still have the "Original Soundtrack"Album to this timeless classic. The soundtrack versions of these songs are longer than they are in the movie.

[@lesleywhite468]

Lee Bryan ...how and where did u purchase it..I'm trying to get it too

[@this_Joe_Smith]

@@lesleywhite468 --i searched eBay and felt extremely glad to get it for $20 (and that's been ....15 years ago)

[@Angelfish757]

This movie got me started loving the Pirate movie (pun intended lol) genre. It deserved to do so much better than it did because 36 years later I'm still laughing at the jokes simply ahead of it's time at the time look at where we are today with parodies especially on KZbin.

[@byrdplane]

I grew up to this movie, I love these songs

[@reneezancewoman]

Wow, I thought I was the only one. Ha. As a kid I used to recite Mabel's (and the others') lines. Loved this movie, the music, and the cast. First time I saw it my mom let me rent it from Video 10 when I was a kid. It was a guilty pleasure and I was embarrassed that I loved it so much. I own the DVD now 😂

[@charnellalexander199]

Ahhhhhh Childhood memories feels come flooding over me. Loved this movie and Kristie Mcnichol

[@brianpearson3540]

It was played on MTV back when MTV first started out.

[@kdaigler1]

I love this movie,I can remember watching it when I was 13

[@1MARKUS79]

Kristy McNichol and Tanya Roberts were the two women I had the kid crush on growing up I have watched this movie so many times I have worn out two VHS's and I have now moved on to getting it on DVD

[@krystalTiger]

1MARKUS79 Back in the day, my Mum accidentally recorded over my VHS tape of this movie. I literally cried. Haha

[@this_Joe_Smith]

@@krystalTiger *i*know*that*pain* i remember the feeling, of FINALLY KNOWING you could *save* something!! ..and then to have it become lost again ****

[@The_Ferbguy]

My mom watched a lot on HBO in the 80's to the point where the tape wore out. Then years later, it aired on that used to be Fox Movie Channel, made another copy and recorded it onto a burnable DVD and then bought the legit copy of the movie. How this movie isn't found anywhere else is beyond me.

[@anthonylagano2371]

I wonder if it was in Christopher Atkins contract he had to appear shirtless lol. Both he and Kristy were adorable

[@I_am_woke_in_Xanadu]

so many good memories

[@Tanzman78]

I was about 30 mins from where this was filmed, 3 years old when it was made......

[@1freeheart1]

i grew up with this movie..and loved the music and story line... i also grew up with fragle rock ... but i can let go of fragle rock

[@Bibaby2599]

Omg same for both

[@wxsuperman38]

I use to cringe when fragle rock came on...loved this movie

[@NemeanLion-]

That’s “Fraggle” to you Gobo.

[@fionamcgrath8982]

Whenever there is a severe drought I play the Fraggle Rock water song and the next day or two the drought breaks.

[@silentdancer981]

This is an awesome movie!!

[@jamesolearyoleary7268]

I remember high school watching this movie on HBO. I just finished my freshman year. Great movie! And music

[@michaelgibson4067]

Well done fellow Pirate i hope you get what you Treasure in life! 💎☠️🏴

[@esmeevree1235]

[@Yngsatchvai]

You cant do that!! What are the other 2 then?

[@lucacagliolo7752]

LOVE THIS MOVIE SO MUCH! Mum introduced it to me when I was little and still in love with it , scary thing is it was all filmed 5 mins down the road from my house !!!

[@this_Joe_Smith]

What?? For Real, you're in Australia or the California beach scenes?

[@fionamcgrath8982]

Oh that would just encourage frequent reenactments if I lived near any of the locations. ❤

[@darkligem]

I have this movie i got off amazon cheap,, and the sounds are identical to the ones in the movie,, gottal love this classic

[@AudioAndroid]

this movie was a so awesome I had all the Action figures even the huge Pirate Toy Playset.

[@tmartin8888]

How the hell did I not know there were action figures and a playset?

[@this_Joe_Smith]

Is that for real? Part of me is like No Way, bc the world didn't-care about this movie enough to make toys of it

[@1freeheart1]

this soundtrack would be a platinum hit should any artist remake these tracks...

[@Lillyvon]

This song was HUGE in Australia - understandable!

[@TheTracystamand]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@emilym2521]

"Man that was a short love scene".

[@Bibaby2599]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@this_Joe_Smith]

I have such a crush on Kristy McNichol's timing and delivery ---it's not adorable when _everybody_ tries to do it

[@norbiesison9257]

A lot of folks hated this movie. Considered a joke by most people, way too camp for a lot of them and admittedly, some of the film's jokes (hitting the other popular movies of the time) were corny, but the songs were always good. No denying that!!

[@cozzazee4043]

2022 and still loving it.

[@ivoryscabrera2952]

Ohh wow up to now

[@JFTL81]

Oh, by the way, Kristy was so HOT in this movie!!!

[@DredPiratNil]

But these are definitely my two favorite love songs of all time tied with kiss the girl from Little mermaid

[@sherrymccormack1691]

Thank u

[@SherriAnneBunny]

My first crush!

[@tmartin8888]

It's a toss up whether I crushed harder on Kristy MacNichol or Olivia Newton-John, but I'm pretty sure ONJ was my first.

[@larainethorpe2847]

They never make romantic comedies or music like this anymore it's so tragic

[@pbamse]

Please ...

[@sherrymccormack1691]

Love u

[@DredPiratNil]

And I must have wore out I don't know about 9 or 10:00 of the blank VCR tapes yes people remember that the video cassette tapes and how you could like go buy blank tapes to coffee the movies and yeah save the Master copy back that way you don't wear it through but you wear all the blank tapes through like no other yeah I ran through about nine blank tapes watching this movie so much growing up this movie Grease Grease 2 Cry-Baby Rocky horror picture show in the original Buffy the vampire Slayer with Kristy Swanson Donald Sutherland and Luke Perry and David arquette

[@sherrymccormack1691]

😩

[@johnege7352]

I wish Glee would do a feature film of the pirate movie, with Johnny depp cameo

[@kishhduo]

no, its just a layered vocal from Chris Atkins...they record him singing the same line...or lines and then layer the other takes to give it more fullness...texture.Its the main man singing over himself.....and damm doesnt it sound good!

[@amberdahl4164]

Actually, incorrect. He can't sing. It's 'dubbed' by screen writer Trevor farrant to cover his horrendous off key singing despite undergoing extensive vocal coaching.

[@this_Joe_Smith]

@@amberdahl4164 yeah? I'm so interested! ---I've loved it so long, I'm surprised i didn't know it as trivia already!

[@martinpatrick9915]

We got ripped off,oh I'm so pissed chris couldn't sing.

[@martinpatrick9915]

We got ripped off oh that so pissed me off,someone else doing the singing cuz chris couldn't hold a tune!!.

[@martinpatrick9915]

No comment 😮😮.

[@tjpization]

is it weird that as a little girl I wasn't into him..but into HER...??? the way those little curls touched her soft, tan shoulders?

[@Angelfish757]

Not at all I was into both but I was only 6 when the movie came out but didn't see it till I was 12 years old I couldn't count how many hormones I used up with these two lmao.

[@ZiddersRooFurry]

Kristy Macnicol had a difficult time in her life during this period because she was struggling with being a lesbian in a culture that pressured her to be a hetero sex symbol. Fortunately years later she came out and ended up in a happier relationship with another woman. There was nothing wrong then or now with feeling the way you did or may still feel. Personally I fell for them both because I'm pan and was still figuring that out when I first saw this when I was 12.

[@this_Joe_Smith]

Not weird at all. I'm a gay male, but i was in love with her from when i was 9, 10, 11.. My last girl crush before hormones made me notice boys

[@Yngsatchvai]

Nope she is smoking in this film. Biggest crush of the 80s well her and Olivia Newton John ❤

[@fanofdeliciousflavor]

you would post this.

[@ivoryscabrera2952]

This movie is great than blue lagoon

[@sherrymccormack1691]

🤣

[@JFTL81]

The sound and his voice sound different from what I remember. It's not as good...it sounds like someone is singing over the original track...?

[@martinpatrick9915]

Trevor Farrant overdubbed the vocals.

[@martinpatrick9915]

Chris couldn't hold a tune,someone else did his singing man we got snookered by that damn it so makes me so miffed.
