[@malcolm2637]

I'm 66 now but I missed a lot of eighties music due to working and poor health but caught up later and so glad I did. I loved Nick's singles and his appearance at Live Aid. ☮️☮️👍👍😁😁🎸🎸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

One of the real gems to come out of the 80s. So tasteful and well crafted. And superb live.

[@junejunie2284]

Almost 2023 and I can't leave this video alone!

[@emanuelmota7217]

SUCH a great song, and SO SO well done! You can TELL the band is INTO it, and so is the audience. This is THE BEST version of this song on the internet!

Such a great song and he performed it perfectly live.

[@LiamRedmondVideo]

Possibly my favourite song ever?

Glad to know you're straight lol cheers!

[@reiver569]

It's in my top five, for sure.

[@reiver569]

Nik Kershaw did the original recording in 1984.

[@kumasuke1]

I loved Nik in the 80s and his voice is exactly the same... he truly rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@edwardclark4787]

Fantastic song from the eighties. Such a talented guy still going strong.

[@marvelboy74]

Awesome! One of my favorites and this powerformance was fab.

[@evenjen]

How refreshing to see how good Nik looks and that he can still sing!

[@CpikeCFC]

Ok so I'm gonna say this, as my daughter tells me, i'm an ageing '80s child..But seriously, How f..kin good does this guy still sound? The talent in the '80s, singer song writers who still sound as good today as they did then...legend :) Thanks for posting this, put a huge smile on my face

[@luvyesmusici4886]

Keep coming back to this video for even more smiles. :-)

[@linkib]

He's even better than in the 80's. Love this song & just listened to the earlier version. :) Those 80's had the best music!!

[@JuanCarlos-jo2le]

I met my wife in a pub when this song was sounded

[@fortuner123]

Brilliant. Wouldn't it be good to be able to sing with this band! I love the bass line - what a cool bunch of guys.

[@neighborscomplaint]

Man what a song and performance. This was one of my favorite songs, just a masterpiece of emotion and insight.

[@SEABLUEMUSIC]

One of the greatest most under-rated singer/songwriter of all time !

[@bardo0007]

Music coming form a genius , he was way ahead of his time. I've been a Nik fan since 1984 , been there ever since, The best music in the world you'll never find in the commercial charts today , unlike 30 + years ago . But just search for it , and you'll find it. The songs that really touches your heart is out there.

[@andyracksthecams]

I love how Norway dig this classic. It is so much better this time around.

[@robertfrazier3334]

Norway is a cool country.

[@victorlecca1156]

This is a real musician. I always loved this beautiful song with magic trumpets instrumental. Wouldnt it be good....forever song

[@evelynli0203]

I love this live performance, it's wat I imagined

[@luvyesmusic]

Fantastic song, great performance. The backing brass was a surprise hit.

[@kaheints]

Can't get enough of this song, even after so many years. Also, the band really nails it. Timeless music.

[@borisj1968]

Yes, the 80's was really great. Good times, good music and better people ...

[@user-sk1iz1yd3h]

ベース、ギター、ドラム、声、全てが良くて癒される!今のクソみたいな音楽氷河期に、この曲に出会えて良かった。今の時代に昔の歌に勝る歌は殆ど無いだろう。今の時代の音楽は一過性。 昔の歌は聞く人の心を踊らせる魅力が沢山ある!プロモーションビデオのニックも最高です😮

[@bobm.8558]

80's song?...song still kicks ass in 2017!!

The one thing nik is he is a great lyricist ,if you read the lyrics to the songs you appreciate just how clever he is with words.Another 80s icon.

[@masterkeyz959]

Love Nik Kershaw... what a legend!👌👌👌

[@terrysteward]

His voice has improved with age,he has a warmer tone, I occasionally do this track and wide boy,on my solon gigs,in my 80's set !!

[@linzieloo1]

How are you doing? I think the same as you, hope you feel a bit better at least

[@josecarvalho9388]

After 30 years not many singers can sound so close to the original studio version. Very good... you still great Nik

[@thomasnicolaisen7312]

This is hands down the best live-version of this tune! Nik sounds awesome as always, BUT the band NAILS it! Even the trombone player nails the backing vocals. Awesome!

[@cowboy742]

This is a very underrated song. Always liked it.

[@terrandroid]

after all that time, and still have a wonderful voice. true artist!

[@desjohn4268]

Bloody awesome to see the bands I heard when I was 9 me being a 82 child,s till playing their classic songs in 2022👍💪🇦🇺

[@oooowwwwdddd]

This song is the song that got me through some very rough times in my life..... I felt like somebody finally understood my pain. Nik, I love you! When will you tour the US. We need you here dude.

[@BenjaminKanarek]

I completely agree...There are no words to describe how prolific a writer Nik is and was. The Mozart of Pop/Rock.

[@dbcoll1957]

It's rare when the live version lives up to, if not surpasses the studio cut... this is one of those times.

[@zeevogel]

Quite a solid performance. I'm impressed. Not even a Nick Kershaw fan. Just here because I liked this song when I was young.

[@jameswhite7997]

Exactly the same as me. Well said.

[@luvyesmusici4886]

You like this song now that you're old/older now, too. ;-)

Same from GTA Vice CITY STORIES 😃

@@luvyesmusici4886 O.k. I do. Still a bit in denial.

This is one of my all time favorite songs! It still makes me smile after all these years! This is also a top notch live performance!!

[@calvinlweir2795]

This song is timeless .

[@peterzang]

I thought this song was amazing in the 80s. This kicks even more ass. Live horns and handclaps? What a great, sympathetic band!

[@leeosborne3793]

This really is a superb live version, I keep watching it. The horns are great.

[@larsweldy8323]

What a performance!!... so smooth and clear.

[@nineinchallan]

Best live performance I have heard. Better and cooler than 20 years ago.

[@No1KCfan6]

it's always fun to see 80's artists today (or, at least, fairly recently) and how different they look. i've always loved this song.

[@Petey_Ouspensky]

What a wonderful take on his own tune. And that Norwegian house band for whatever that show is are such impressive, all-around musicians - thank you SO much for posting this!

[@lucieni]

Nik totally nailed this live and the backing band totally nailed it too... I hate the word ‘awesome’ but this was a truly Awesome performance.

[@Naughtyjug]

What an excellent performance!!! I always knew there was something special to Nik's writing when I was listening to his hits during the 80's. A great musician and songwriter who has got me feeling all nostalgic for my teens again.

[@zentrader1734]

My daughter is 2 and she loves Nik Kershaw!

[@manjsingh5073]

Just love this song.. I yearn for the 80s... What great years before the net and mobile phone scurge ...

[@WhiteHartDane]

He still sounds as fresh as back in the day, and it's still a tune to kill for. Marvellous!

[@simodo11]

The early 80's was just the best time,great artists,great songs,great singers,they were difficult songs to sing ,shows how talented they all were,rock on the 80's .

[@TWHISPERER]

Great song and the lyrics will make the song live on forever.

[@feliciakidd9358]

Classic great 80's hit. Have always loved this song. Listened to it alot in the 80's. I think of the movie Pretty In Pink everytime I hear it.

[@memewmarsada]

Nik, one of the best of the 80's, still have it! I really like this song even when i was just 5 years old when it became a hit.

[@gaijinman7852]

This is my favorite version of the song, his voice is better here better then when he was younger!!

[@marianobogado1771]

[@outremmer44]

loved this when i was a kid,still do at 63 ,wonderfull

[@mirnaramos9506]

Me encanta esta canción y los 80 fueron lo máximo y no se comparan con la música actual es mi humilde opinión

[@Hi-xs7wm]

Verdad

[@luvyesmusici4886]

Hands down, one of my favorite all time videos of a live show, a great song to begin with, and then a hugely talented backing band. The icing and cherry on top of this cake is the surprise of just an awesome horn section, that easily elevates the music/song and video to an 11 as a highly enjoyable audio experience for the ears and mind.

[@darwilvasamezquita8472]

Los 80, me encanta esta versión, viajo en el tiempo, a Dios J. Gracias, paso 63 años.

[@d.lencer2887]

My favorite song since 1985! And the older, the better!

[@fivedaysinjune]

OMG! So so good to see Nik in action after so long and he's still got it. His music beats a lot of the recent rubbish from the last few years. Thanks you for posting!!

[@StonyRC]

Damn, I've always LOVED this song. So good to see Nik still performing - he's bloody excellent live!

[@TheGodParticle]

StonyRC me too, he's a incredible guitarist and songwriter. Cheers

[@mwduck]

Hemorrhagically good!

[@haroldstafford3189]

where is that growling bass???

[@wrigleystu]

Timeless. One of the best songs of the era. Still doin it.

[@kenc.d8200]

Awesome sounding song ! Nick sings great too ! Well done guys !

[@lonniecraig5186]

I'm not normally a fan of live versions of songs that I really like, but i this case, I'll make an exception. They did an absolutely outstanding job of making the song sound like the studio version, and the band was really on top of its game. Oh, and Kershaw did pretty well too (LOL just kidding; he was outstanding!).

[@DonRua]

How did he ever get a drummer like Vinnie Colaiuta back in the 80's to play with him? It is like having Bill gate or Steve Job selling computers at a retail store. That certainly raised his reputation in the sheer musical level. I used to think he was nothing but a "one-hit wonder" artist. Now I listen very carefully of his music. Thanx for posting.

[@davethecrow]

it might sound odd but i have a Kick Kershaw day once a year.…his melodies and harmonies and funny voice give me the horn. we have the lord Jesus Christ to thank for Nick Kershaws music!!

[@kehillathaderechyhvh6030]

The 1980s was the best decade I ever had. This song takes me back to my teens. Too bad we don't have great jams in the 21st century.

[@kristenlapointe8629]

nick kershaw is extremely talented. His voice and band sound amazing, especially playing live in 2008.

[@RICREYNOLDSMUSIC]

You are so right. I was living in a rat infested apartment when this song came out and it helped pull me thru. Fantastic sound and he looks sincere at his message. I will spread it on my KZbin and Facebook account.

Absolutely Fantastic. Legend

[@Harti2000]

I´ll ever love that song. It´s nice to hear it live with full instrument section. The synth sounds very good...
