One of the most beautiful songs of its decade, if you ask me.

[@crimsonplayzzz9741]

agreed!!!!

[@cameronhile4077]

Agree. The way it was incorporated into the intro of Donnie Darko was genius and made it even more beautiful imo.

[@infiniteminds_]

Tom Ivanaj *if* you asked.

[@chrislherbs1047]

Of any decade, one of the best songs ever :)

[@alexanderherrera9297]

Exactly!! The electric piano and bass line are so romantic the perfect date song

[@micah5189]

my father used to play this a lot when he was still with us, i never got to know the title but it was one of those songs that stays with you, you just remember it somehow, how it sounds, the feeling you get when you're listening to it. I've been looking for this song everywhere for the past couple months and it's only now that i was able to find it. It sure made me feel a lot closer and connected to my dad. Music is magic. 8.30.20

[@opheliab4u]

Your dad had great taste in music, may he rest in paradise

[@onekinkstar]

Just use Google and say whatever you know about a song to find the title! Type in any verse via Google or KZbin and poof, there it is! You can even record what you're hearing say at the end of a movie and Google will tell you the name!

[@micah5189]

@@onekinkstar Thanks! I'm not a native english speaker so it makes it hard sometimes to pick up the words and it also doesn't help that I hardly had any recollection about the song because i was too young then, but thank you I appreciate it!

[@michaeldiamond76]

[@OwneyMadden430]

I’m happy for you that’s beautiful Micah , it is such a beautiful song I’m going threw horrible depression and feel so alone and Im laying in bed at 430am listening to this song wondering how much longer I live with this pain, just helps talking about it my dad died when I was 20 in 1999 but he was very mean to me so I don’t miss him , I’m so happy for you having had good memories of your pops and finding a Awsome song like this that makes you feel closer . Music is Awsome 🤙🏽

[@unowen7591]

I love the line "It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand." It has so much meaning behind it, and it's so well delivered.

[@sha11235]

Sort of ironic, since I think if you have a gun in your hand, you ARE a man, to some extent.

[@Switcheroo4542]

Even more ironic because that's not what he's saying "It's hard to be a man when there's a knot in your heart" Considering the whole song is about being head over heels in love, it makes sense

[@beseen6606]

@@Switcheroo4542 sounds like he could be saying either one but if u watch the mv he says the line at 2:13 ish while pulling out a gun so i think “gun in your hand” is actually correct

[@Aphelion.s_Abyss]

I READ THIS JUST AS THE LINE HAPPENED AHDHFJF

[@jstnsmutek]

I think the gun is a metaphor for having the power. Hard to do the right thing when you hold all the cards and you have all the power.

At least you understood... something! I had no clue but I played again now that you said it and it DOES sound like they're saying that. It's pretty similar. You got the idea.

No, they already have the awesome music. They don't need it back, rather we need to get it back.

[@billypruitt4943]

Every time I hear these guys I can't help but to think how alsome the 80z was .its amazing how the music from then can make you remember everything that was going on in your life back then..the music today has no soul.and the will never ever ever be able to sound this great..I feel sorry for the people that missed the 80z..

[@SkullLeadr1]

True, but if you think about it the music is still here and still being played on the radio for a new generation to discover the magic. Kind of how I discovered the Doors and Pink Floyd in the 90s while in highschool. Those also take me back.

[@YashiroMS]

I wanted to be with you alone And talk about the weather But traditions I can trace against the child in your face Won't escape my attention You keep your distance via the system of touch And gentle persuasion I'm lost in admiration, could I need you this much? Oh, you're wasting my time You're just, just, just wasting time Something happens and I'm head over heels I never find out until I'm head over heels Something happens and I'm head over heels Ah, don't take my heart, don't break my heart Don't, don't, don't throw it away Throw it away, throw it away I made a fire, and watching it burn Thought of your future With one foot in the past, now just how long will it last? Now, now, now, have you no ambitions? My mother and my brothers used to breathing clean air And dreaming I'm a doctor It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand Oh, I feel so Something happens and I'm head over heels I never find out until I'm head over heels Something happens and I'm head over heels Ah, don't take my heart, don't break my heart Don't, don't, don't throw it away And this is my four leaf clover I'm on the line, one open mind This is my four leaf clover In my mind's eye One little boy, one little man Funny how time flies
