I meravigliosi anni 80😢❤

[@maxalbe]

there aren't many songs out there that you can call perfect. this is one of the few. absolutely brilliant.

[@battmann7089]

A great criminally underrated band, pop classics aplenty. They weren't around for long but they were great while they lasted.

[@replicas11]

True 👍👍

[@maggieloughran4913]

agree they are very amazing

[@miguelgutierrez3333]

Probably the most underrated band in the 80's. They were fantastic.

[@danielalorenzoni3413]

Concordo, io li ho adorati. Innamorata di Paul king❤❤❤❤❤

[@adamoboarini7740]

I agree!! 👍👍

A magnificent song from Coventrys finest! Possibly the greatest mullet in the world!

[@massimomeridio7539]

1985 not so many years ago.......just another life, fantastic

[@silvanadonadoni127]

Adoro questo brano xché mi riporta immediatamente agli anni 80. Adoro Paul King bellissimo e bravissimo rappresenta in pieno quegli anni. Mi viene da piangere.

[@amethyst7084]

Wow! That's a mullet and a half! Why is this not played on the radio stations? Classic 80s song.

[@boofuls]

I think the technical term is a Power Mullet 😂

[@philcoley5726]

Paul King Is Brilliant ❤

[@sportstrader2175]

This is a wonderful track and Paul King was a charismatic frontman.

[@paulmckenzie4291]

King was as underrated as Haircut 100. Great tune!

[@jeffallinson8089]

Kings best song, and it's brilliant. Still makes me sad, and happy at the same time, even after nearly 38 years.

[@ericgeorge5483]

I think it is his best song too.

[@verytiredmum2011]

[@eightiesmusic1984]

Absolute classic. Lovely song from 1985.

[@sarebighair]

Totally under played and underrated, I loved this track 👐

[@80ssynthfan48]

1000 times better than Love and Pride.

[@rw8733]

Definitely agree.

[@AngeloCapra]

I’m totally agree! One of my personal own soundtracks of the 80 decade) , 🙏❤️✨💫💥

[@bobhopeless9381]

"The taste of your tears just tears me apart". A line enough to get me hooked on this song. So emotional!

[@allen63b]

Missed my train back to Leicester after seeing them at Rock City in 84 but worth it.

[@Alexander-tj2dn]

One of the best songs from the 80s. And very unknown and underrated.

[@mahen8889]

bring back all the 80s memories....brilliant

[@ianhart8811]

During 1985 & 1986 King enjoyed success with 5 singles high up in UK top 40. This one my favourite by King.

[@mikekaraoke]

Don't forget their 2 hit albums either-Steps in Time(84) + Bitter Sweet(85)

[@davidoteng556]

Paul King hit a home run with this song.

[@rjjcms1]

This was their third and last major hit in the UK,all of them coming in 1985. The other two were the brilliant Love and Pride near the start of that year and Alone Without You at the tail end of the summer. So yes they did burn very brightly but were soon gone from the limelight.

[@nickwhite2428]

Time to download 80s tunes and remember those awesome years

[@teresabaker7079]

I discovered recently that Laser 558 iss back on the airwaves and they played this today. Awesome song ❤

Unforgettable classic of 80 decade! Great song and great underrated band! One of my favorite song of that period! 👍

[@johnobrien7860]

In a year when the big Top 3 Spandau, Club n Duran were floundering, these guys killed it. This song is such a good example of a great song.

[@BookieKillah]

Don't think Duran Duran were 'floundering' - View To A Kill, anyone?...

[@warren218]

@@BookieKillah I think he means maybe when the band were splintering and the Arcadia/Power Station thing was going on

[@BookieKillah]

@@warren218 Solo projects and alternate bands, yeh - but in their case, it just produced more top-notch music for the era...

[@marcodefrancesco1769]

I don't know about me I can't see that I have changed What I was is what I am That still remains What I love is what I see But you've just twisted me too much Tested and pried To look inside Now you can't stay The taste of your tears Tears me apart The bittersweet salt cracks my heart I don't know about me I can't see that I have changed What I was is what I am That still remains To au revoirs I have grown wise I know goodbye should mean goodbye There's no regrets Just dry your eyes Wipe your face

[@KeytarKris]

It’s like listening to Morrissey without the racism. ♥️

[@kennethnorris4920]

Paul King was not Really that (Flamboyant & Kinda Weird), like Say Morrissey from the Smiths, Came across as. However, that's how these two Front Men differed, for Example. Shame that King never lasted that long, as they were Very Talented!. Probably one of the Most Underrated Bands, of the 80s.😢

[@KittyCatFurbabiesMaria1972]

"I don't know about me ,I can't say that I have changed,what I was is what I am that still remains What I love is what I see,but you just twisted me too much, Tested and pried to look inside now you can't stay" xxx

[@peroduplancic3460]

Good old Paul King, I was just a kid when this brilliant tune was release and I remember when I was watching this on MUSIC BOX in the middle of the 80's....This is now classic tune, those time would never come back unfortunately. Now we have internet, facebook, you tube etc......but musicians and people lost their souls. Nowdays nobody can written good romantic songs like this one :-(

[@KittyCatFurbabiesMaria1972]

Completely true x

[@KittyCatFurbabiesMaria1972]

Pero, do you know that there's a King Official Website , Facebook page? :) x

[@peroduplancic3460]

Yes, I know, is it italian?

[@KittyCatFurbabiesMaria1972]

Always wanted King to reform,so I could go to a gig :). Wish they would :) Loads of other 80's bands have , Come on Paul ,Mick,Jim and Tony!!!!! Pleeeeeeeeaaaasssseeeee!!!! ??? Then I can forgive my parents for not letting me go to any gigs when I was 12! X

[@3by2youRreal]

They should bigger than this….. ..new wave with pop rock sound……indeed

[@danielalorenzoni3413]

Mamma mia lo vedevo cosi bello Paul king. E guardandolo oggi ribadisco che era figo❤affascinante.

[@dabogirl]

I had Paul King's sticker on my wardrobe door when I was in junior high. And he still represents my inner male beauty image, even though I am dating a dramatically different (yet very beautiful to me) man.

[@luisferreiro]

WOW! Like just..........WOW! Fabulous is too mild a word to describe this!
