Paul Hardcastle , the making of 19

I was mesmerised as a child. when this came on.

This era owes everything to those synths.

Paul you are epic an legennnnnd and I dont use that word lightly you brought the deep consciousness of the global wars to my attention in 1982 I was just 16 years old in Africa. 6 years later I returned back to the UK and I went to Our Price Records in Islington that was in 1988 and I found the vinyl single of "19". I was hooked and never looked back ever since. Your music has forever touch since then and my travel adventures around the world. I look forward to visiting Vietnam for the 1st time and another trip to Japan determined to visit Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Thanks for uploading.It`s always very interesting to see how certain Songs got done,how the Artists composed them. I can clearly remember when this Song came out,it was the Synth Bass that caught my attention the most,loved it.The other bits on the Song are also awesome btw!. 😊 I can also clearly remember me being very disappointed when it got toppeled from No 1!. 😠🙃But i guess 5 weeks at No.1 isn`t bad!. 😄

1985 Bournemouth beach (UK), loads of people had it blasting out of stereos none stop!! Made my day as I loved the track, plus I had the Destruction mix LP at home. 😎👍

This track was fire, used to breakdance to this in my younger days

Glad I joined and served and survived. 19 and Duran Duran was my go to music that motivated me a lot during those times.

[@robcrozier1692]

1985 was magical

[@rebelnaylor8505]

Very interesting post. I remember the song well! At 11 years old age it was powerful. Still is.

[@mario-off-topic]

I remember buying all the versions, including the German one. As far as I remember the song was 13 weeks number 1 in Germany. I was 19 back then and joined the Army shortly after.

[@CredoDesign-g9v]

That was played in GER symbolizing victory against citizens

[@HeinSchlauHeinSchlau1234]

[@hypnotics7886]

This song is going to be 40 next year 😮

[@ericoxner8333]

I recall CBS doing a report on the song 19.Sime vets were interviewed. I also a report on returning vets from that war.I was a child back then.The odd thing is in school we studied the Civil War and WW2 more than nam.Like I stated before odd now that I think about.I meet a few Nam vets.And no I did not ask them to go into depth about their unit.If they wanted to they would have tolded me.
