I love how everyone praises Harry Styles for wearing makeup and feminine outfits as if every singer in the 80's didn't also do that

[@motorman817]

I know right haha

[@Mystic-Midnight]

Poor Robert Smith gets overshadowed

[@coachtomas]

Its just recycled style these days and social media makes it into a political movement !!

[@heywoodjablohmei5324]

Today it represents conformity. Masculine shame and ritualistic gender sacrifice to gain social approval and driven by self loathing. In the 80's it was an act of defiance against conformity. A cultural statement in defense of the rights of individuals and comfort with sexual identity -- 'Doing this makes me NO LESS of a man. I can be masculine AND sensitive. I can be masculine AND beautiful. I am so masculine I can display feminine traits without calling my sexual identity into question'. Very different things. Its about the motivation.

I'm crying uncontrollably right now. I was born 1971. This music (80's) is life. I watched my wife and mother pass away just a month apart from each other in 2013. Then my oldest brother lost his father, then his oldest son, and finally he himself. And now my own health is failing. I find comfort on coming on youtube to listen to the 80's music I grew up on, although it can make me tear up. I long for the old days when life was so much more simple and happy.

[@TomRipley7350]

God bless you. My dad was was born the same year as you. I have sadly lost him and I listen to his music collection. Please keep the faith. I’m sending healing thoughts from England. Where there’s life, there’s hope. Be strong.

I had the same thought pattern. Music 30 years ago from TODAY is not TOO far removed from what we have today; Grunge, Hop/Hop, Pop, Rock. More or less on the same keel. But 30 years before from when I graduated high school in 1988, you were talking about a whole different world from '88: Kingston Trio, Chantilly lace, King Kreole, and Bobby Darin. It might as well have been from another planet!

[@Markkaiseriii]

Is anyone talking about how well-written this song is? How many songs are there where you get both perspectives like this? It’s really a masterpiece.

[@CraftAero]

Came here to say the same thing... a masterpiece of lyrical story telling. They waste NO time in setting up the story and bringing you into it, then (seamlessly) comes the other side and both are relatable. "Paradise by the dashboard light" also comes to mind as a terrific "back and forth" relating both sides of a story. Also an EPIC song.

You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar When I met you I picked you out, I shook you up And turned you around Turned you into someone new Now five years later on you've got the world at your feet Success has been so easy for you But don't forget it's me who put you where you are now And I can put you back down too. I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar That much is true But even then I knew I'd find a much better place Either with or without you The five years we have had have been such good at times I still love you But now I think it's time I lived my life on my own I guess it's just what I must do

During the 1970s I and a schoolfriend were big fans of Vangelis and Tomita and thought electric guitars were completely old hat. However, in the early 1980s it was amazing to see and hear synths go from a niche instrument few musicians could afford to the mainstream. p.s. Do you realise this was from The Human Leagues third album. However, both they, and Heaven 17 who were the "musical" part of the group got fed up with being niche and went for a full on Pop sound. It obviously worked as this was the U.K.s 1981 Christmas Number 1 single back when that actually meant something.

Sometimes I’m just so sad, that I was born in 2005 :( I‘d give everything for a time travel to the 80s… Even if I never experienced that era it feels so nostalgic, harmless and warm to me. I also think, that regarding music, the 80s are unmatchable. It seems like the perfect mixture of normal people being able to become musicians, but without the overload of nonsense of today’s streaming platforms. The music of the 80s just seems so pure and natural, as if most songs wrote themselves, but they can hit emotions way more compared to stuff I hear today. I just wish I could’ve been there…
