Real Life - Catch Me I'm Falling (1983)

[@perpetual61]

This is a Perfect Example of Why I Miss The 80's. The Originality, Uniqueness & the Creativity of the Music. I'm so glad I was a Part of the Greatest Music Decade Ever.

[@Pezpipa]

Totalmente de acuerdo con usted.

[@davidwright4495]

I'm right with you on that. I'm 57 and miss the 80's

[@jamierooke5151]

How time flys the 1980s only seem like yesterday not 4 decades ago great memories of great bands and great songs and some great friends that have passed at least there are great memories of both that will live with us all until our time is up cheers everyone.

[@donnaashford3830]

Omg!! I LOVE THIS SONG!!! This song brings back so many great memories ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶

[@bornflippy1]

2023 I am 55 and walking through memories of great bands and music in my life. Real Life "Heartland " album was special even by 80's uber creative and eclectic standards. This band was different among many different bands. I get why so many of the generations after us gravitate to "Our" music..it was fearless and free of so many of the tethers that confine so much of the music that has come after. It is always great to come back and listen to the "good stuff " besides the flood of memories it is simply fantastic music.

[@MikeTahash-vg4in]

The 80s rule the roost what a wonderful time to be alive

[@jt.8144]

The last time I heard this song was in 1989. 2023. FULL CLOSURE. Thank you LIFE! Truly Grateful.

This is the music. We used to go to the pubs and see band's like this what a great night back in the day. What a shame it's all gone. Not many dickheads around on them days. Dance all night no interference just a good night. F.Wits not tolerated, they got sorted out real quick. Bye bye good old days.😕😕🍺👍🇳🇿

[@mishti06]

Listened to this literally a billion times back in the day. This was such a great track!!

[@Johnny_Thunder]

That era of music was so exciting. Now its just crap.

[@Harlee172]

I was a huge fan of Real Life, discovered them back in '81 living in CA. Still makes smile and dance at 60

[@germaniac4177]

I love youtube. It´s a first class timemachine and bring me back to best times. Even a lost and found office.

[@Marco-wp9kw]

Or better yet, a find and never lose device yeah!

[@ArorEclecticMusic]

I love youtube. for the same reason... im traveling over again and again.

[@bryanpartington3260]

Thats why I love youtube, i was a seventies/eighties child, and yet there was so much from those times I never heard , and still yet to discover.

[@KryoSynkronis]

it is like walking down memory lane - so much fun :)

[@ricky5538]

I love it too except for the censorship of Christianity, but facebook and other sites are worse.

[@Jo2002-b7y]

I lay down to rest my head My soul to keep the night I dread It's no dream Slumber comes as darkness falls And shadows dance across my walls It's no dream Wake up Don't sleep My dreams become so real to me Wake up Don't sleep While the night is young I lay down to rest my head My soul to keep the night I dread It's no dream Slumber comes as darkness falls And shadows dance across my walls It's no dream I Wake up Don't sleep My dreams become so real to me I Wake up Don't sleep While the night is young Catch me I'm falling Down again I know it's a dream but just the same There's a face before my eyes are closed but I can recognize the danger Slumber comes as darkness falls And shadows dance across my walls It's no dream I Wake up Don't sleep My dreams become so real to me I wake up Don't sleep While the night is young Catch me I'm falling Down again I know it's a dream but just the same Catch me I'm falling, falling Ahhhhh Ahhhh Catch me I'm falling Down again I know it's a dream but just the same Catch me I'm falling Catch me I'm falling Catch me I'm falling I'm falling Catch me I'm falling I'm falling Catch me I'm falling I'm falling Catch me I'm falling I'm falling

“You have no idea how much this song means to me. I almost cry every time I hear it. It is my life from beginning to end.”

[@Johnny_Thunder]

The mid 80s were such an exciting time in music, and Real life were right on the forefront. Sadly that era is all gone now.

[@edwardsinchuk8199]

One of my favorite songs of all time

[@josephpetranovic3450]

Great songs !! Real shame they didnt have a highly successful career like some of the other electronic New wave Pop Synth Oz groups of the 80s (Icehouse Pseudo Echo etc . Their 90s album Lifetime was very good .check it out 👍

[@peterbishop5402]

They were so ahead of their time, great beat and sound for an Aussie band back then. Not many Australian dance songs made prior to them.

[@m.y.o.b.724]

Everyday is a good time to be on an 80s kick.❤😎

[@julianofpaignton6202]

This song has been going through my head ever since I heard it at Aahs on Wilshire Blvd in Los Angeles back in 1985 and finally I found who played that song I heard all those years ago.

[@BennoWitter]

This is not only "Real Life", it's real music as well, when people knew that electronic music doesn't have to sound like screws in a blender and could have real harmonies that are pleasant for your ears.

[@tasbomber]

fantastic song, fantastic era in music :-)

[@martinteddy8683]

Myyyy god is that good. Far ahead of their time. Masterpiece...we miss Sound Luke this today...

[@emrahtsu]

Fantastic sounds and vocal voice

[@multifangirl8202]

I love this band and this song! Plus I heard that they are really nice!

[@senenramales4067]

Beautiful Music! !!!😊🎵🎶🎼🎼🎶🎵🎶🎵🎼🎸🎹

[@MrRockabilly70]

Soon to be 42 and I can absolutely relate to a lot of the comments being posted. I remember jumping around like a frog in a fuckin sock to this one with my mates at the blue light disco trying to impress the girls lol. Had some of the best times of my life during my teenage years in the 80's, wish I could go back and do it all again and while I wasn't a big fan of the new wave/synthesizer stuff back then, this song was an exception. Thank you reallifeexperience for the upload.

[@christiang2913]

Cant beat the iconic 80s drum kits!!

[@dollhead2039]

Christian G hell yeah they get my dick hard

[@michaelorick6225]

this is a perfect song

[@dappa2113]

What a fantastic song from the past still love hearing it

[@SHS854EVER]

this is when music kicked ass and this is why this music will never die.This has to me one of my favorite tunes of all time .I wish i had a time machine i would drop everything and go back in a heart beat.

[@dampergoldenrod4156]

2:49 love the 1980s guitar sound.

[@davidwright4495]

The golden age of Synthesizers.

Yeah but they'd be nothing without the synth sounds.

[@dominikartimani9611]

80s dreams as it best

[@xoxxobob61]

We were so Lucky to have this Music in the 80s !

[@mozman1111]

Directed by Steve Hopkins (he of Ghost and the Darkness, Life and Times of Peter Sellers, amongst many others, fame) and edited by myself. Great fun cutting this clip. Nice bunch of guys. I directed a remix version of Send Me an Angel about 7 years later. Great memories.

[@Marco-wp9kw]

Wow that pretty cool dude! What other projects have you worked on in the industry?

[@mozman1111]

Marcos Vazquez Thanks, and way too many to mention them all here. Directing and editing wise - John Farnham (3), Margaret Urlich (3), Peter Andre (2), Tommy Emmanuel (3), Savage Garden, Noiseworks, Dragon (2), Roxus, Richard Clapton. Rick Price, and plenty of others.

[@Marco-wp9kw]

Maurice Todman Awesome man, I hope you enjoyed working on all those projects, 'cause that's what matters most. What would recommend someone who is interested with the industry to do?

[@mozman1111]

Marcos Vazquez Find people already in it, and depending on what you want to do, offer to do stuff for nothing. Somewhere along the way, someone's going to pay you in the end. If you want something badly enough, you'll find a way.

[@Marco-wp9kw]

Thanks for the advice man, I'll keep it in mind!

[@maryanneoneill451]

The beginning of Fluorescent clothing. I remember this. Anyone remember the fluorescent zinc cream you could buy just like the video clip. Persons at the beaches were smothered with fluorescent pink across noses and cheeks. I wonder if they got the idea from persons drinking in the clubs at dark after spending hours in the Australian sun where you couldn't wash the stuff off your face. Ahhh, the memories. This is awesome !! Thank you for this. love it.

[@marioramus9681]

Great Band from Down Under

[@valorra65]

This was quite a big seller at Wilcox Records & Tapes in 1983 if I recall (hey I've killed way too many brain cells since then - most between age 16 & 25 - LOL!). The 12" dance version - good choice!

[@spectres0024]

I like the Australian 'dream-time' sequence at the very beginning, evoking the Aboriginal. Reminds me of the Peter Weir movie 'The Last Wave' , starring Richard Chamberlain.

[@spectres0024]

Also see the 80s costumes and flat latex drum kit. Love the 80s. Especially Aussie 80s bands.

[@spacecricket]

I am soooooo blessed to have gone through my adolescence in the 80s!

[@luischavez8695]

Esta canción es formidable, muy buena, un excelente logro que solo en los 80's tuvimos la dicha de recibir !!!

[@thereal_kpatz]

I was 16 and loved this song .............

[@sandradavies379]

Great music remember there music clearly in the eighties

[@Kazilikaya]

I had an amazing experience with this song one night in february '11. I woke up in the middle of the night around 2AM and started listening to this song on my iPod. I was half asleept-hat weird state of consciousness where you're aware of your surroundings but not quite in touch with reality....and as I heard the lyrics "there's a face before my eyes their closed but I can recognize the danger!" I became terrified because I actually thought there was someone there in the hallway.

OMG!.. thank you!!... love my 80's... this song is great!

[@doctorairflow]

The 60's brought us something new in pop music....kooky and zany fun. Just watch "A Hard Day's Night." But FUN, returned again in the 80's and we have not seen it since. IMO this why 15 kids now want a time machine to go back to a fun time. Who the hell wouldn't? 80's music like this oozes fun.

[@erikpelegrin]

I LOVE THIS SONG SOOOO MUCH IS THE SOUND TRACK OF MY CHILDHOOD AND EARLY TEENS! PRIVILEGE IS ALL I FEEL AND SO MUCH NOSTALGIA

[@bernardinomachadoiv7358]

Oh what a memory to cherish! I feel like living in the 80's again! Party time!!!

[@grahammillar8012]

They where a great band to watch live in the Pubs. They used to play this near the end of the giggs. Perfectly describes the fans after good night out down the local. Between this song and Face to Face to hard to choose between them as my favorite. The day after the night before i'd find myself waking up to Send me an Angel and cranking up the stereo. Good old days :)

[@zapkvr]

+Poppy Grum I was lucky enough to see them play support for Thomson twins. They were freaking awesome. I saw rhem at Collendina country club not long after they were a class act.

[@arferapple]

I USED to go every monday to her majestys pub where they played for free

[@jeffreykicia6534]

[@MrVadder68]

Real Life, ein Hit aus den , ja was , aus den 80 ger Jahre, Ja ich sage ja, war die beste Musik, der Rhytmus , den hat jede und jeden Gepackt, bei der Musik war Tanzen und Feiern angesagt, man war zu dieser Zeit Unbeschwerter und hatte dass Gefühl alles war Easy und Great und alle Menschen hatten Verständiss für alles und hatten es ebenfalls. Man hat in den 80 ger Jahren einfach besser und Unbeschwerter gelebt, dieses Gefühl fehlt den letzten Jahrzehnten alle, den 90 ger Jahre , Millenium und dass Jetzige Jahrzehnt, leider heul :-(((( LG Andreas

[@germaniac4177]

Ohja, jede Woche ein neuer Hit. Keine langweiligen Wiederholungen alle Stunde im Radio. Immer eine leere Kassette im Deck und dann Freitag abends "recording" ^^. Die 80´ er werden für mich unvergesslich bleiben. Ich gebe Dir recht, ein unbeschwertes Gefühl. Ich vermisse es.

[@MrVadder68]

Germa niac Guten Abend, Ja, so habe ich viele Abende gessesen wenn die Charts gespielt wurden, so wie bei Mel-Sandocks Hitparade. Jeden Mittwoch Abend um 20:05 WDR 2 und Samstag um 19:05 WDR 1 Schlagerrally. Geile Zeit und Geile Musik, Ja, leider mit der Heutigen Musik nicht zu vergleichen :-(((( Nee, dann die 80 ger forever. The best Musik for the life. It s wonderful Time und Love. LG Andreas

[@germaniac4177]

Andreas Heinisch Ohja, alle Daumen hoch :). Damals war Alles noch, wie es sein sollte ^^ Der Winter ein Winter, der Sommer ein Sommer und die Musik... ... eben Musik, Ohrwürmer ohne Ende und beim heutigem Hören kommen immernoch die Gefühle von damals auf. Etwas zum Festhalten. Mel Sandocks Hitparade, cool. Ist es wirklich schon so lange her ^^ "kopfkratz" ? LG zurück

[@MrVadder68]

Germa niac Guten Abend , ja, das ist es, wenn ich morgens in den Spiegel schaue, erschrecke ich mich jedesmal, nach dem Moto, was Wer bist Du denn, altes Träckergesicht, rasieren musst dich trozdem,lol.:-))) Nee, solange ist es wirklich her, ich muss ebenfalls oft schlucken, dass es so lange schon her ist und doch bei vielen Musikstücken aus den 80 ger Jahren, die Augen schließen und dann läuft es wie ein Film ab, dann ist man in Gedanken wieder Teenager und Jung, schöööööönnn Ich mache es öfter und schon ist die Zeit in Gedanken wieder da und alles was passiert und man zu der Zeit gemacht hat. LG Andreas

[@MrVadder68]

Kirsten Schmitz guten Abend Kirstin, ja es war wie Du schon geschrieben hast, Bomben Muke, natürlich gibt es immer Gute Musik, doch die aus den 80 Ger Jahren, die bleibt einfach Einmalig und das schönste Jahrzehnt was ich von der Musik her erlebt habe, Geiiiillllll :-))))) einen schönen Abend noch. LG Andreas

[@FairladyS130]

A definative '80's song, great music is forever, this is great music.

[@klax001]

I was born in 87 and I got into 80's music big time by the time I was in 9th grade in 2002 so highschool and college memories include mostly 80's synthpop and new wave stuff. Some of my friends at work thought I was weird because I stuck to the 80's while they all hopped on the dubstep bandwagon. Still no regrets here! :D

[@adidzis]

Great song!!! Thanks to youtube I 've got a chance to listen it again after so many years ... How does it comes, that so many wonderfull songs, like this one, have been written in Golden Eighties?! Even hard to compare with today's rap-hiphop-sh!t...

A pity none of their singles were released in the UK, despite being produced by a British guy.

The whole album "Heartland", was excellent. Too bad it was never released on CD. Have to rely on the 'ol vinyl for that flashback, my cassette tape got worn out..

[@helenebff7271]

It was released on CD. I found it on www.andymusic.de. Check it out. Fantastic music from a wonderful time!

[@reneortiz6122]

I have HEARTLAND on cd😁

[@retdrewclassic20]

I'm pretty sure it was scarcely released on CD sometime in the early 2000s but copies are now very rare fetching prices in the hundreds
