The Hooters - 500 Miles (Video Version)

Music video by The Hooters performing 500 Miles. (C) 1989 Sony BMG Music Entertainment

I wish music like this was still made. Days gone by....

[@Nivram92]

Nowadays... to be like that means to go through a load of shit... Most people just go with the flow and the ones showing heart become outsiders and are kinda getting blamed for being like that. Money and fame rule the WHOLE world, human heart and instincts matter less and less. It's just my opinion but I'm pretty sure of it - Day X will come...

[@race2kill]

I must make you notice a fact: you should have written "I wish MUSIC WAS still made" Nowadays trash can't be called music

[@Tacocasaking]

Today’s music is trash. 80’s music will never be replicated.

If you miss the train I'm on, you will know that I am gone You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles A hundred miles, a hundred miles A hundred miles, a hundred miles You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles Not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name And the land that I once loved was not my own Lord I'm one, Lord I'm two, Lord I'm three, Lord I'm four Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home A hundred tanks along the square One man stands and stops them there Some day soon, the tide will turn, and I'll be free I'll be free, I'll be free, I'll come home to my country Some day soon the tide will turn and I'll be free If you miss the train I'm on, you will know that I am gone You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles Lord I'm one, Lord I'm two, Lord I'm three, Lord I'm four Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home

The Hooters never got their due...outstanding music, in a cookie cutter music formula era.

[@ericbrokl7451]

Every generation is cookie cutter. Most labels play it safe by making the same music until that sound is wore out. Agree the Hooters didn't get their due. But maybe that's why we dug them and still do. The Hooters were a bit on the edge of the status quo. And honestly that's where I am, on the outside looking in. Music needs to reach our soul to impact us or we just stick with the fad music and switch to whatever everyone else is listening to. I agree with you 100% my friend.
