80's songs never grow old. So much emotion and thought put into the lyrics. The music videos were alot better its like watching a moment in time someone's life.

[@TheOnlyOneStanding8079]

Yes 80s music was more exciting

[@cathsalazar9930]

U so right!.........👍

[@LexingtonDeville984]

I was lucky to be born in 84, a year which has been picked by many as the best year for music ever. Nowadays? It’s all absolute rubbish filled with degenerates without any actual talent.

[@rockmcdwayne1710]

@@LexingtonDeville984 Im in a same boat with you on that thought. Im also made in 1984. Allthough i have to admit i didnt see the greatness of these masterpieces untill i was about 28+. Then again, they say that human brain keeps avolving till 27 or so. Anybody who didnt screw up their brain before that should make a difference between trash and art.

[@dazza944]

I still prefer 80s music over anything now

[@mackeydirk8643]

This song debuted in August of 1987....33 years ago. I remember my mom playing this song all the time as a kid. She loves both the Pet Shop Boys and Dusty.

[@andywaitstill2980]

A rarity. A perfect pop piece - wonderful, wistful lyrics and passionate, persistent vocals; pulsating yet restrained keyboards; a fetching bass line; a brilliant horn and string arrangement; deliberate and charming repetition. Probably PSB's best single moment and a critical revival for Dusty Springfield. Win-win for all involved.

[@aridian7787]

Andy Waitstill : and a deliciously eccentric follow up to “ West-end Girls.”

[@maryadams2529]

You summed up all our thoughts and feelings beautifully😊

[@walterpewen7903]

Very true. There was A LOT of pop then that was appealing, almost none this class and complex. Everybody liked this.

I agree. Such a complex mix of sounds, yet everything sounds so damn pleasing.

[@765ketyjo]

When Dusty's voice kicks in 90 seconds in,she transforms this really fine song into a great one for me.Young people won't be aware that she's probably the UKs finest ever female singer, a massive talent.A sublime voice with Soul. The US never really embraced her as they should have done,but thats the UKs gain.

[@jessica23claire]

I'm 25 and I LOOOOVE Dusty Springfield! She's been one of my faves since I was a teenager. But I've always had the music taste of someone beyond my age...

[@SusieSynth]

Oh we do. I was a kid when this came but distinctively remember loving her voice and how she stood out. My mom liked her music.

[@zebra2615]

Dusty may be gone,though she is definitely not forgotten. RIP Miss Springfield.

[@reprehensiblereptile187]

You can't blame music fans, blame the suits man, they ruin EVERYTHING they touch. If they don't like it WE shouldn't like it either. That's how they see things.

[@ertfgghhhh]

She has a nice voice but her having soul? Yall dont know what soul is...

[@freedolphin3077]

Whenever I see Dusty,my day immediately brightens up. She got that quality that's so rare,when you see her the world lights up,and it's 100% real,she's the true definition of "positivity". Though she was one of the pioneer singers of Rock'n'Roll,but she never really gotten enough recognition while she was alive,still it never stopped her being the sunshine she was. Love you,Dusty,thanks for your voice and your image!

[@strictlynorton]

The Dusty in Memphis album earned her the lifelong respect of R&B's top artists including Aretha who recognised her unique style and phrasing. The greatest UK female artist of her or any subsequent generation.

[@biav]

dusty is pure sunshine thats for sure, and terribly underrated and unknown here in the americas :c

[@kevinhardy8997]

I love it when newer bands invite old school talent for collaborations. Such respect for the greats.

[@andrestamayo6509]

A really perfectly crafted song. the Production was sooo good. the way they floated Dusty's vocals in the beginning verse....and then gave her her spotlight verse...a really nice touch and respect for her. She left this life with this last piece of her legacy. There is a video here on KZbin with them Pet Shop boys doing this at an awards show...and Dusty came out and joined them!

No doubt at all, the 80's+ 90's best time in every way, now that i'm 58 years young i still listen to the music of the eighties and ninties and really enjoy it, so many good memories coming up with.

Im right there with you 59 best of times these kids today don't know what real music is

[@frankielazorischak8471]

you mean 80s and 70s brother

[@MrMarcy76]

For me, i think 1979-87 was the best time, with 88-95 coming a close second, and then 98-2003 a close third for music. I was 11 when this cane out in August 1987

[@revanelson8810]

The 80's had the second British Invasion of music led by the Pet Shop Boys, Duran Duran, ABC, Billy Idol, Tears for Fears, Depeche Mode, etc. It was wonderful times especially watching videos on MTV.

[@oldskoolmusicnostalgia]

True and that was also the last great generation of British acts. After that they've produced a few good ones on and off but never a whole generation like the one that came along in the eighties. These days Adele passes as the best Britain has to offer, which says it all.

[@revanelson8810]

+Pritish Appadoo. The first British Invasion of music was of course led by the Beatles, the Who, the Rolling Stones, in the 1960's. Since the 1980's, there is yet another British Invasion.

[@lonelyheroine]

+Reva Nelson Remember David Byrne and the Talking Heads? Unfortunately the song that always pops into my head whether I want it or not is "Same As It Ever Was" which is accompanied by David repeatedly banging his head like a crazy person.

[@lonelyheroine]

+Reva Nelson Ah, the salad days of MTV when they played music videos. Now, it`s overrun by stupid `reality`tripe. Ridiculousness (just as moronic as the show`s name) that catfish nonsense and a whole host of programs that don`t cost a lot to make. Yet another reason to wish for the 80`s to come back.
