Who else is listening to this great song in 2023?
-
Anybody else feel just a little bit sad about how young and hip you were when this was getting regular airplay on MTV and how the world seems to have changed so much since then? This song takes me back to my teenage years. Thanks, Joe Jackson!

2024 Joe Jackson forever. The 80s era belongs to me and I want it back

I was in a bar in the Upper East Side New York called « Elaine’s », must have been 1982-83. This guy just walks in, alone, and starts playing on the piano, including this one in a very cool, slowed down version. So I say to my buddy: « This guy’s pretty good ». My friend looked at me dumbfounded « Man, that’s freaking Joe Jackson ». I’d never heard of him. Been a fan ever since.

I was at this gig. He said something that will stay with me forever. He said “40 years ago, who’d have thought I’d still be able to fill the Palladium. Thank you”. Still a very humble man.

I’m 34...I wouldn’t know this gem of a song if it wasn’t for Vice City..thank you Grand Theft Auto!

Every time I hear this song, I feel like I can run through a brick wall…the energy is good! Love this song

Man, after all these years, he's still got it. That song's still got it. It moves something in my soul, almost brings me back to a simpler, happier time when everyone I love was still alive.
-
This guy was a genius, totally urban 80s music. Still powerful today. Beats any trash on the radio today!
-
A really wonderful, beautiful piece of music that lit up my life in the early 80's. My children were young, I was optimistic, and my work life was new. It was a great time to be alive.

His voice hasn't change after all the years. Sounds great.
-
This is one of the most perfect songs. I have no real nostalgic connection to it, but it's just a fantastic vibe. The electric piano chords are such innovative voicings, paired with a driving bass, and the glockenspiel sitting over the top of them. It's just a magical song.

Hard to believe, the first time I heard this was 40 years ago.

I have loved Joe Jackson since I cannot remember, am 53 now. Being an East Berliner I remember dancing to this in the Franzz Klub in 1986 with my sister. Stuck behind the iron curtain Joe Jackson was one of the freshest and most inspiring rushes of freedom feeling imho. Hell yeah, he still is!

And here you have it,THE most underrated artist of the 80s who has written some beautiful music.
-
This is pure gold for us music nerds. Love it.

idk man; maybe its late, maybe I'm hyper-sensitive but this video just made me happy almost to the point of tears. I spent all day with the melody stuck in my head and for the life of me could not remember the actual title of the track. I search and search and come across this gem and now I'm sitting at my desk smiling ear to ear and gleefully weeping. So for this moment and for your beautiful gift that made it happen: thank you so much Sir Jackson.

I don't know what it is, but this song emotionally takes me back to the days when it was new and I was watching it on MTV. And I don't know why. I just get that "feeling", like I'm back there again. 😞

If you're born in the 70s like I was, and this song doesn't bring you back to your childhood, NOTHING WILL. The 80s-greatest time ever

I was sitting in my parents' house back in '83 absorbing the shocking end of a relationship. My younger brother brought this album on cassette and played it for us. It is one of the best albums I have ever heard.
