Limahl - The Never Ending Story • TopPop

"Never Ending Story" is the title song from the English version of the 1984 film The NeverEnding Story. It was produced and composed by Italian musician Giorgio Moroder and performed by Limahl. Limahl released two versions of the song, one in English and one in French. The English version featured vocals by Beth Anderson, and the French version titled "L'Histoire Sans Fin" featured vocals by Ann Calvert.
Christopher Hamill (born 19 December 1958), better known by his stage name Limahl (an anagram of Hamill), is an English pop singer. He rose to fame as the lead singer of the 1980s pop group Kajagoogoo, before embarking on a briefly successful solo career, which reached its peak with the 1984 hit "The NeverEnding Story", the theme song for the film of the same name.

I'm an 80s girl and I can tell you that 1984 was the best year for 80s fashion and music, and this is the best song of 1984. The best outfit of 1984 is what Sheen Easton is wearing in her video for strut. That was a bit of a tangent but in a nutshell, I love this dreamy song.

The part that is nostalgic is the entire song, the first is that black woman giving a back-up singer, followed by Limahl's chorus, and the music that reminds me a childhood fantasy rather than treating as a disco music.

Turn around Look at what you see In her face The mirror of your dreams Make believe I'm everywhere Given in the light Written on the pages Is the answer to a never ending story Ah Reach the stars Fly a fantasy Dream a dream And what you see will be Rhymes that keep their secrets Will unfold behind the clouds And there upon a rainbow Is the answer to a never ending story Ah Story Ah Show no fear For she may fade away In your hand The birth of a new day Rhymes that keep their secrets Will unfold behind the clouds And there upon a rainbow Is the answer to a never ending story Ah Never ending story Ah Never ending story Ah Never ending story Ah
