No Motiv: Space Age Love Song

[@Nostalgictvpunkcraver]

SERIOUSLY UNDERRATED BAND

[@ilgonlineandy]

Its not that often you get a great cover version of a song, but No Motive really knocked this one out of the park.

[@c7po457]

Dude, no doubt. This is a great cover.

[@b-r-i-a-n-s]

Completely agree!!!

[@michaelfedorsha8147]

Bought this punk cover album about 20 years ago and the memories just flooded my brain

[@c7po457]

Man, I'm with ya. I haven't listened to this in forever and it reminds me of such great times

[@Amazin-ji8sn]

Junior or senior year in HS. These were like $5-10 each.

[@darrellbaum2615]

I bought it new, man days gone past....

[@superapple6186]

Me too. Senior year in high school. Hearing this song for the first time felt exactly the way it feels to fall in love.

[@laurenjade11]

I first heard this in 1999 I think... I'm 36 now in 2020 and I still LOVE this cover and No Motiv. Any other Emodults here with me? lol 🤓

[@erikstigter7897]

I'm with you dude.. not sure I'm an 'emodult' but I waited for this record to come out and played this song over and over again. It made me buy their record and I was not disappointed.

[@laurenjade11]

@@erikstigter7897 Same! I jokingly refer to myself as an "emodult" since many of us were referred to as "Emo kids" (I'm positive you got that), but I was never really in a specific scene or tried to look like it. I wear what I wear, listen to whatever resonates, but still am very much so a supporter of that type of music and many others. Just saw Mae & The Juliana Theory in September and it was fantastic! ☺️

[@erikstigter7897]

@@laurenjade11 Look at me assuming you were a guy.. Very sorry about that but cool to hear you're (still) not ashamed to do what feels good to you. And yes, I got the emo reference. I wish you well..

[@laurenjade11]

@@erikstigter7897 Haha I didn't even think about it! I'm originally from San Diego so naturally I say "Dude" a few times per day 🤷‍♀️. Doing whatever brings joy seems more and more important as the days go, so I'll always honor that as much as I possibly can.

[@erikstigter7897]

@@laurenjade11 I share your opinion.. and nice to know that you guys (!) still just say 'dude' regardless... with all the identity politics going around I was afraid normal people were on the verge of extinction.

[@ALFAJERKBFH]

F*ck Yeah! I liked the original as a kid back in the 80s. I'm glad No Motiv did this. The guitar work in Flock Of Seagulls was great, but never talked about.

[@SuperSeanreilly]

GREAT VERSION!!!.....And This Is Coming From A True "FLOCK" Fan!!!......

[@jrdturbo]

Fantastic cover of one of my fave '80s tunes!

[@sergioperron]

i bought this cd as soon as it came out and loved it since, one of the best covers i've ever heard

[@shauncartwright7812]

Sergio, another great cover is against the waves version of summer romance by Incubus

[@damianchristopher1523]

Lovin this rocked up version very well done not to over the top like some bands

[@benmiller1462]

I'm falling in love, with this version.

[@leevayhagustin402]

Me too

[@pennstate713]

Great memories, great bands.. What happened to good music?!

[@Cowboy__Cody]

Amazing Cover !! Also an amazing band!!

[@redfiveroe1138]

This used to be my go to song to get high to when I was 18. Just close your eyes, lay back, and let it roll over you.

[@shamit6361]

I came here from the last scene in Marvel's What If...? series episode 2 when Peter Quill meets Ego!

[@drmahuapal3670]

Same!

[@douglascady6625]

Maybe a brand new day tomorrow after enjoying this rendition. What a great version!!!

[@georgejarry3964]

Awesome cover, thank you

[@heidispahn4194]

excellent. one of my all time favs

[@dawnoftheshred7757]

This is fucking amazing!!!!!

[@mackbolzano3901]

Best New Wave ( Flock of Seagulls original version) song of the Eighties! I am 53 and this ranks at # 1 in my humble opinion. Post your #1 New Wave song of the 80's in comments! I miss the 80's!!! This cover is the best cover I have heard of this song!! They rock it without over killing it!

[@GodWeenSatan]

Mack Bolzano Missing persons - Destination unknown for me :) 80's all the way!

[@Gen-X-Rising]

Death Blossoms did it better!.

[@SPCLPONY]

56 here.... and this song is close to the top of my list as well. Too many great tunes from the 80's. The 'coming of age' for me.

[@daniellaubacher8591]

My first concert was No Motiv in Oxnard at Lazerstar of all god forbidden places. Man I miss that place.

[@Inspire6]

This song was in Not another teen movie.

[@julianbransky7168]

I know, Shazam told me :)

[@festy1986]

Actually it is.

[@XaleManix]

Old music seems better because everyone has had time to forget all the bad songs.

[@erikstigter7897]

I guess this comment hasn't aged very well.

[@annelieshausslercyberscrib1548]

Who is the red suit-wearing kid? His smile is so radiant it makes me wonder where his life is at now. As for his date, this beautiful young woman is the Mother of all Emo and everything that the 80s was (and still is). WHERE ARE THEY NOW?

[@robsimmons6742]

You’ve put a lot of thought into this LOL

[@Alejandro-oq8dl]

Lovely

[@laurenjade11]

I've loved this cover since 99' 🖤🤓 #Emodult through and through! EDIT: I scrolled down and saw my other comment I forgot about 😆

[@LySTER138]

ME TOO!!!

[@00GASPER00]

excelente!!

[@douglaschristian214]

[@santoshsharma483]

Got the Reynolds guitar sound right.

[@eddieberner]

NICE FUKKN JOB !!!!!

[@VasinYaroslav]

👌❤️

[@dannyjingu]

I always thought this was an AMAZING cover. Why the star ratings are low, I have no idea...

[@FurtherAM]

Not Another Teen Movie sent me here

[@jessecrx4615]

Where can I purchase this song legitimately? All I can find is this youtube vid and I don't want to take it from the site because they never sound as good as a legit copy.

[@Ztrigom]

Jesse CRX same here

[@PalaszewskiFamily]

You can buy Before You Were Punk 2 on CD at amazon

[@mackbolzano3901]

[@redfiveroe1138]

This was my go to smoke song when I started getting high in 02.

[@drugsmadilla]

No way

[@magicskyfairy69]

i've had the mp3 of this forever... is it not widespread?

[@raptor182cmn]

The girl on this album cover looks just like my ex, but she was born in 1980 so..not her.

[@garethquinn2185]

Fuggin youngsters, look no motiv up. WIDESPREAD!?!? Are you kidding?
