Each decade had unique and distinct music that I absolutely bonded with. This song is full of everything that was the 80s. I became a guy in the 90s, a man in the 2000s, and now I’m just an old guy with lots of great memories. One of the things about music, is they are tied to certain memories, and that’s just fantastic.

I don’t do anything the same in my 60s as I did even in my 50s, let alone 20s and 30s, and that’s ok. It’s just how it is and I’m at peace with it. I still do things, even purchased my first motorcycle and licensed at the age of 61, and I’m loving it. It’s definitely on the dangerous side, and I am very cautious when I ride, but I don’t think I would have felt the same about riding and my abilities when younger. I would not have any fear and would have had 100% confidence in myself. I would have taken to it like the wind. It’s not like that for me today.

THANX A LOT FOR THESE FU###NG LYRICS. PLEASE GIVE THE LYRICS OF REST OF ALL THE PSB SONGS ALSO......

My 2 yr old is now a Pet Shop Boys Stan. Thanks Allstate!

lol, i was just like that at 2, but it was to the who

Very lucky guy, he has a treasure waiting for him to discover :)

Singing hood ornament, Allstate commercial. I hope "royalties" were paid. Congrats 👏 gentlemen.

[@bigmoncrief6071]

Lots of opportunities in Thatcher's Britain. Just so long as you were well off in the first place. Brilliant commentary on the UK in the 1980's this song.

[@lucifera_night]

I was so happy to hear this gem in the Allstate commercial. I have not heard this song in years. I had this song on cassette when I was younger (yeah I'm that old...lol) West End Girls was my other favorite from them.

[@Sandralarimore]

Yeah, well I was born in '46! And love this song, and hits from the 80's!

[@nikitakade5618]

How great to go back and discover this music. What an era; wish I'd been there, even if I'd be old now. It would've been worth it.

[@KyleGuitarLife]

I completely agree with you on that

[@mattjreid]

I was a child when this was released, and I can remember there was a lot of waiting around for your favourite TV programme or radio show - and blandness filled the gaps between.

[@trazy38]

Nikita Kade i was 13 when this came out. the 80s were great

[@ednac45]

It was and it is worth beimg as old as I am (56 on july 5th) now. Good times!!!

[@widbear3703]

I was 16 then, 51 now but I don't regret it. It was a golden age of music and I was there.

[@AdiSRC]

It's one of early iconic videos by Polish Master Zbigniew Rybczynski. Even today it's still highly impressive, how he achieved that flow of images and perfect timing without CGI.

[@mikekaraoke]

+Adrian Szczypinski CGI did come out in the 80's you know

[@dreamlandnightmare]

But it wasn't really used in this video.

[@mikekaraoke]

***** I didn't say it did, But I just mean't in general CGI did good things in Films, TV Shows, Adverts, etc in the 80's :-]

[@KRAFTWERK2K6]

There were some very impressive Video Editing machines since at least the 70s but the 80s really are the time where there was a sudden explosion of possibilities. Especially with such tools like the Fairlight CVI. And even for smaller budgets there were things like the Video Toaster for Commodore Amiga computers. All you needed were a few Videotape machines for the source video and a recording deck for the mixed video. Who knows how many layers they had to record and then use again to create even more parallax layers. Max Headroom was another good example of 80s Video editing technology with minimal or no CGI at all being used.

[@anonUK]

That background *is* 80s CGI.

[@photoshoott2022]

Love 80s music, and Petshop boys was part of that amazing era of music and entertainment. Great music, great memories and love this music just as much now, as I have when it was the time when it first came out and we enjoyed it.

[@caledoniatardivo8537]

Such a trippy and dreamy song! Excellent social commentary of the 80s and use of irony! 😀

[@caledoniatardivo8537]

+Ariel Plath As it's always been, actually.

[@Soliy87]

Still is sadly Relevant even more so

[@lyes-ot6it]

One of the rare case of using irony in dance music, especially new wave, there are some also in Suburbia song, Pet shop boys is the only new wave band or duet to look so much working class. working class anti-heros ^^

Thanks Allstate if it wasn't for your commercial I wouldn't have known of that great song.

[@johndotter351]

One of the Pet Shop Boys top 10 hits!

I have been a huge fan of Pet Shop Boys for over 30 years. If you're new to PSB and like their music, you can call me a friend because YOU have good taste and you are awesome!

[@tyronewalker1054]

One of my all time favorite song!

[@charlessedlacek5754]

[@MusicCityHipHop]

The guy in the convertible and hood ornament on a tv commercial made me look this up cause it keeps singing in my head all day lol!!

[@Sanjasochi]

So much craft in this particular video...both mental and making it real job. For that time that kind of video was fantastic I guess.

[@vibhasmehta3539]

"Oh, there's a lot of opportunities, if you know you can take them. Oh, there's a lot of opportunities, if there aren't you can make them." Still stands true today! My salute to The Pet Shop Boys. All their songs are still relevant today.

[@ellzedd4113]

Make or break them 😂

[@kbalzano1199]

I’m here because of both the Allstate commercial and the song. It was a song I liked, but forgot about til Allstate juggled my memory. 🥰

[@justadownsouthtexasboy1259]

Because of Allstate this is the first song I play in the car every time I get in it... FULL BLAST!! Thanks Allstate!!

[@neeleshwagle]

Just a wonderful song! It brings back high school memories. One of the finest Pet Shop Boys hits....

[@scottdavis2711]

If you grew up in the 80's you know this tune. so many bands.

[@ayf1983]

Also, almost always a fixture of heist movies or stock manipulation movies lol. usually the montage part.

I first heard this song on the reality TV show "Beauty and the Geek." That was 20 years ago!

[@champflowahbomb7630]

I freaking love this song ❤️ that piano intro and then the hard hitting synth

[@LemonFX]

That is the first time I watched this videoclip of a song recorded 40 years ago. It is amazing.

Hands up if the Tetris movie brought you here! ✋ What a perfectly fitting song that was! (And a fantastic film too!)

[@SharkaBytes]

Brought me here too! It's such a fitting song

These ad companies now are brilliant in reserecting these 80's and 90s songs to hype up their commercials

[@flexx7543]

I close my eyes and I see myself watching this on MTV decades ago. One of those iconic 80s tunes that tell stories of the times then...PSB masters of the art.

[@ellzedd4113]

I see myself in the bar with my then boyfriend and his sister. I remember i wished he was singing this to me 😂

[@brendancarr6171]

I have been jamming to Pet Shop Boys ' music since I was 19 back in 2014 (via West End Girls, What Have I Done To Deserve This, Domino Dancing, and Always on my Mind0 , but while I had heard of the title, I did not hear this particular song until the ad this year. As soon as I first heard it, I recognized it as the Boys' voices. So glad that they are being rediscovered by more people now. they rock.

[@KawauchiFlam]

This version is simply brilliant! I love when I watch videos that actually has something to do with the songs

[@HEHE-dx9og]

The 80`s when we all dreamed and dreams came true. The best decade ever to grow up in.
