Lyrics
I have a picture pinned to my wall
An image of you and of me and we're laughing, we're loving it all
Look at our life now, we're tattered and torn
We fuss and we fight and delight in the tears and we cry until dawn
Hold me now, warm my heart
Stay with me, let loving start, let loving start
Hold me now, warm my heart
Stay with me, let loving start, let loving start

We loved the Thompson Twins back then! 5/8/2024
I’m 26 years old, mama taught me well🎶 Guess I’m old if I’m smoking my blunt to this shit. 2024
Wow i feel so privelidged to be born in the 80s, and still listening in 2024
Stay with me. I'm here 2024
1983, just returned to Korea for my second tour. Listening to it now brings back memories.
Who is still listening 2024
Was in it's second of three weeks at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week 40 years ago!y My oh my how time does fly! I was in sixth grade then
Love this song 🩵

YES! God, those were the days.
I had an office tape recorder playing this, 4 "c" sized batteries, oh man those were the times.😊
Who’s still listening to this in the 2024
ME ❤❤❤
Yo ❤❤❤❤
Love this Im in grade school with this
A heck of a bunch of us! 80's music is THE BEST😂😂❤❤
nobody. we're all just pretending. but i can tell u that ppl in 3210 will listen to it.🤦🏻
My uncle died last month. Every time he picked me up from soccer games, he’d blast good 80’s music. This was his favorite, and listening to it now just brings sorrow. I still can’t believe he’s gone
By celebrating his influence on you by playing songs he liked, you may find joy in that grief. Joy for his life and the ripples he cast.
I’ve lost everything but my son… I used to play this to him and dance in our back garden at our old house… he was about 3 then and that was about 10 years ago… THIS, and Starship, Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now… He was such a fat, chubby, cuddly, happy baby and, somehow, these two songs bring us together throughout all we have lost. Side note: my friend used to play and tour with The Thompson Twins on drums!😊
When they are still in your Heart They are never totally gone...
Great tune 80s superb decade here's to your uncle ❤
So sorry for your loss, may this song bring back good memories
All of us growing up in the 70’s and 80’s…..WERE BLESSED! The music rocked
Absolutely we did ☝️🎶🎼🎵
I love this song I’m was born 1982
Thank goodness we were witnesses to this awesome era 🫶🏿
Indeed, now just made, pushed & over produced Satanic BS throughout all the music industry with auto tune! Sickening. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I miss the 80s
love this song even though I'm now 72, great memories of good times!!
I'm 37, and I'd almost switch places with you to be in my thirties in the eighties. It must have been magical ❤️
Beautiful song
Yes, great memories of good times. I was in high school and the pleasure of watching this video was not as easy as it is today, we had to stay up and wait to see it, man these kids got it made today. i also think about my mom and how young she was then, but I thought she was old. Ha, ha. She's 76 today. I Love you, Mom.
@@PaperRainesIt was a magical time
@@soulpowerful ❤️❤️❤️
There is an atmosphere about this song that even as a kid got the hairs on the back of my neck standing up. This is a really classic track. It has stood the test of time.
I didn't have any hairs on the back of my neck in those days. That shows the magic of this song.
I always liked this song!
Bring back the good old days.. 80s at its best
American culture peaked right about then.
Kids today have tiktok and facebook. But we had the 80...only 1 winner. Great tune
Just got out of heart surgery 2 days ago and im singing this in my room
Who is still listening in 2068?
An 80s masterpiece
J'm an Italian fan 58 years old and j have a big dream for me It's criminal that a band like them isn't playing their Art anymore J'd like to suggest a maybe utopistic proposal: why all' the fans that still love them so much and we'll always do won't all make a petition a collection of signatures and send to all' of them asking to reform their fantastic band?Maybe it's a crazy idea but why we don't try and proove Them how much we still love Them j really hope someone will join my idea
@@renato8578 I'm in Mate.
I was a teen in the 80's....full time, this song takes me back in a second, then I remember my entire family , Mom was alive, Dad was the super hero, grands were there, brother and sister were there too, the friends in high school, the pals in the hood, the best time to fall in love and be a freaking teen.....God Thanks again for my time as a teen in the 80's.
I have the same feelings mate.
You described me … or stole my thoughts lol 😂 but I totally agree with you,
That! My whole family was here and I didn't know what it was like to live without them. Today, I smile but I'm truly hurt and sad. I miss them so much. They should be here to see the new members of the family, be here to see where I am as an adult, and laugh with me.
I can so relate!😊
Me too...nothing like it, we ruled the world.
We had the best music ever. 70s & 80s will never be matched. We had it all.
Coming back from war to discover all is lost is not having it all.
100%
The music today will never compare to the 80s.❤
Damned right! How many songs written today could ever be regarded as a classic?
WAP is definitely a classic. For different reasons though. . .
There's no more creativity in music anymore. It's always the same. The voices all sound the same and just can't capture the magic of the decades of old. Though contradictory to that statement there are a lot of amazing synth wave of today I discovered a lot of them through this retro wave wallpapers app on my phone that plays retro style synthwave music, my all time favorite would be this song called Still Haunting Me by Magic Dance. I highly recommend it, it needs to be heard. But in general the standard popular music is today just has no magic anymore.
I doubt it cuz I never heard of it and I heard all songs that are classic.@@DazmoTube
@@thethunderbird87 There is as much great music today as ever. You forgot or never heard the less popular songs on less successful albums from decades ago -- songs that got little to no radio play. Today, you can find almost anything online if you're willing to listen.
I was in middle school when this came out. I heard it on the radio and made my parents sit in the car with me in the garage until it was done. The production, arrangement, songwriting -- all gorgeous. I decided at that moment I would be a professional musician and music producer. And that's what I am. I'll always be grateful to Tom Bailey and crew for that moment, and this song, in my life.
Amazing moment… sometimes that’s all it takes 😊❤
Just want to say that I subscribed to your channel just because of your antidote
Was in middle school, too, when it came out. Remember listening to it on my portable cassette player.
I mean it's ok, wouldn't say its near the best of the 80s
I hope u have listened 2 Japan & there songs, especially the album tin drum, will blow ure socks of, u will not b dissappointed, the production, arrangement, the togetherness in harmony is perfection
1983 was EPIC for music. These songs still rule today in 2024!!!
Exacto salieron excelentes canciones en ese año
There's no doubt about it. This is a great song.
FACTS
I am so honored to grow up then.
One of the greatest years ever for music. Here's my 1983 playlist. kzhead.info/channel/PL6oCQqv2KW6WTjSBpavnnkILla2nhwwrV.html
80s music just touches the heart and soul. I love all 80s music ❤
Me too ❤love 80s
Music was laid to rest 20 years ago.
I absolutely love this song even after all these years,I'm 60 and there will never again be a decade like the 80s. Brings back so many awesome memories. 😊😊🖤
Im Love The Music 1980
The best music and times
Nothing can't out compete our Era. Long live Gen X
Baby boomers too!!!
I Don't know ? Us boomers rocked!!!
It may have been Gen X kids listening but the music/artist was made by MY BABY BOOMERS! ❤❤
Not true im afraid. @@TheOlskool4ever
@@TheOlskool4everwe were the best generation for music the BB.
I lived in Pittsburgh when this song came out. I liked to go to the Pirates games and their was a first baseman was named Thompson. There were two fans that were twins and they wore Thompson's uniform to the game. They were the actual Thompson Twins. Sly humor there in the 'Burgh.
🎉 Retro music greetings from coastal Mississippi. I still have their albums. Loved them in the 80's
80s music was the Best.....
I didn't realize I was living the best days of my life until many, many years had passed.
😍😍😍😍
I feel you.
Omg how true.
so true !
Yep, this is another of those bands who made it onto my radio 1 mix tapes, thank God i kept all those C90 cassettes ❤❤❤
I was born in 49 and still love the twins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wasn't birth hard?
No way...Holding back tears so that I can watch this. Makes me realise that time is relative. While watching this, Im a young man. The older me, remembers the younger me.
Time is a thief
@@goldenvulture6818 A mean thief
That's the power of music.
Best comment. So damn true
Welcome to the club my friend! I wish I could find a time machine to take me back to 1981 the year I graduated from high school.
You just aren’t an 80s person if you didn’t love this sing!❤️💕🎶🎼🥰😍😘😎
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I'm not an 80s person, but I love this song.
😢
Too right! It was everywhere!!!
It has been 40 years😢 where has time gone? I do miss the 80s💔
No kiddin on what happened to the time. LOL Remember back then when older people would tell us to pay attention to and enjoy life, it'll be gone before you know it? Yeah, I think we're experiencing that now. 😄
You had a glorious 40 years, that's what happened. You lived, be grateful and acknowledge-ful
@@PaperRaines how do you know MY past 40 years were glorious? They weren't
@@MrsWuschwusch compared to John Lennon's previous 40 years in the ground, you've lived a life of kings. You know, not dead and all. If you're breathing, you have to be grateful for at least that. Have some perspective, you're well enough to enjoy good music aren't you
@@PaperRaines you are really something. What is your problem ffs? Go and hate on someone else
The 80s were the best. Transition days, MTV, overdrive, one after the other. Never to be heard or felt again.
❤
Thr Brits are without amy doubt blessed with musical talent. Its narural and they made my youth in the 80s so special.
I agree whole heartedly ❤
I want to go back....please.
With what I know now?
X
👍
Me too
It is sad they don't make music like the 80's anymore.
thank you 80s
Ahh 84...The days of being in junior school and not a care in the world...simpler, happier times....
Man, is it weird that after all these years I still get choked up listening to this song? Life man...
God gives you those memories to share the good ones with the ones you love. Be strong brother, your best days may just show up unannounced when you least expect it.
Ah, the 80s!❤
We will never have music like this again 😢❤💯❤️❤️🙏
No we won't😢
😂🤦🏻♂️
THEY STILL HOLD US...NOW! 😉
This is one of the best songs EVER made. Def gets a score of 10/10. One of the legendary 80's songs that lives on...still sounds as good as the day it came out...never gets old...
It's perfect.
🙌👍🙌🙌🙌
i bought a new 1983 Mustang LX 5.0 5 speed convertible in '83. There were tons of Great songs to crank up as drove around in '82-86. Best days of my life!
I think Howard Jones 'What is Love' is one of the best songs EVER also. Amazingly neither got to number one in the UK charts. This got to no.4 and Howard Jones no.2
@@RITWINS Howard Jones "No One is to Blame"
I was born June 1990 but my heart was beating in the 80s ❤️
I remember this around 1984 and that 80s invasion is still unbeatable to this day .
Tom Bailey , Joe Leeway and Alanah Currie , that ' s a fantastic trio and fabulous songs writen by them!
When I was in high school I drove a lifted 97 Tahoe, and my friends and I would drive around listening to 80s music in it. I’m only 32, but this is the music I raised on!
From the comments only someone can feel how much this song is still appreciated and loved. Only love can do that 💙💙💙
I drank a bottle of vodka in Shrewsbury 80s fest I was on the floor comatose when I came round this song was on.I got off the floor like Tyson fury ready for another round I was good to go.What a song to come round to ❤
On this day, 40 years ago, this song peaked at #3 on the Billboard Hot 100, staying there for 2 weeks, losing to two consecutive #1s, "Against All Odds (Take A Look At Me Now)" by Phil Collins and "Hello" by Lionel Richie. Not only it's #3 in the US, but also #3 in Australia and Canada. This became the biggest hit of Thompson Twins when it comes to popularity and chart performance.
I am now in year 2024 n still listening to the 80s.
Me too!❤
@georgelee5820. Amazing, how did you get there 🙄
"Let loving start and Stay with me" are just two legendary phrases. It makes me want to cry when I hear those two phrases.
I have a sister. She took me to Purdue University. Clowes hall. Berlin opened. Before Take my Breath Away. It was just a bit lewd. Still I will never ever forget the BEST Twins EVER.
This song popped into my head the other day, out of the blue. When it came out, It struck me hard at the time, 12, clueless, and skipping along the pond of life. 39 years later, I'm blown away at how well produced, arranged, and performed it is. The 80's just crushed it, and I'm lucky to have been coming of age at the time. It sent me on an 80's journey of music.
If there’s any tune that take you back to the 80s it would be this one!!
🙌🙌🙌🙌
I was born in 1989
Yessss
Anyone agree the one Thompson twin is hot? I’m guessing that the only non twin is the black guy
Absolutely 💯 seems like 1984 was yesterday! Where has the time gone? To all those amazing days we thought would last forever!❤
Going through really difficult times right now and the Thompson Twins are my comfort music. So grateful I have easy access to these videos. 💕🙏
❤
Same
Same 😢
❤️💖💓🙏💕💓
Stay strong, your difficult time will eventually pass.
A sad song that brings me such joy. Love when this song randomly plays on the "radio" and I get that zing in my gut❤
I've totally forgot about this song, then "Pop", it jumped into my head. Good memories
This song is 40 years old!!! This song was used as the ending credits to 2021’s “Me You Madness”; also used for “The Wedding Singer” and “10 Things I Hate About You” movies.
When I was young I would add 30 to my birthday to see when I would turn 30. It was 2001. 😂 I’m truly blessed to live through the 80s.
I was only 7 years old in 1.983, but I'll remember this people playing that on the TV. " HOLD ME NOW...". Amazing music. Greetings from BARCELONA.
I miss the carefree days of the 80's! Awesome times with songs like this one!
The 80's music was fab-u-lus there will never be any music again to compare with the fabulous recordings of one single hit after the other. They were all BOSS. Loved those 80's smokin hits. Miss the real 🎵 hits!
There will never be a time in music like the 80"s!!!!
Flicking through the radio stations while taking my son footie training, l happened upon this song and was instantly transported through a wormhole to my teens! Can't describe the emotions that suddenly came over me, and my pining for what were the best years of my life!
I am so old and grumpy , arthritis, ect old peoples stuff but I still know every word and go back in time to when I was young and active the world was exciting and the future was bright and filled with choices Career, romance Wonderful trip down memory lane
Yup...me, too. Arthritis & all...77, but still kicking. Figuratively tapping...& still absolutely LOVING this song!!! Glad to have found it again. 🥹
How many times I tuned on the FM, sang and danced this song? No enough, indeed! THX Thompson Twins for this masterpiece!
Damm this song touched me at 16 and even more at 53.
😢50❤
Im 54 and yes touched me to
75 😲 (going on 15 😘) And I always remember the lyrics to this really great song! I love many decades of and types of Music! ❤ The Thompson twins were amazing! 🤩
@@Amanda-nl3wy51. What happened? 🥹🙏🏻
This song touches my heart & soul so very much. Little did I know that the person I last danced with to this sing was going to commit suicide 2 weeks later ( 1984). It destroyed me for many years later, probably still today in reality 😔
50 here. Still rocking it
My missus was listening to Spotify in the bath today when this came, I was blown away by the melody, and the different layers all moving together.
Born in 84. By the time i hit primary school in 88 this was my favourite song thanks to my dad. Absolutely timeless.
To the person that reads this, I ask the Lord to bless them and their family, to cure them of every sickness and pain, to fill their emptiness with love joy and peace, to rebuke the enemy from their lives. " ASK JESUS TO COME INTO YOUR HEART AND SAVE YOU, AND TO FORGIVE YOU OF YOUR SINS, FOR WE GIVE THANKS AND GLORY TO THE LORD. IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS CHRIST AMEN!
Anyone born from 80s listening to this in 2024 because you heard it on the radio in your parents car? Maybe Delilah on the radio
Hard to believe TT unleashed this wonder hit 4 decades ago. These British popsters told music fans to " Hold Me Now". Music fans still do even in this day and age!
I had tickets to see The Police following their Synchronicity album. It was at the Hollywood Park race track (terrible venue) and there were several opening bands that were very big in the new wave genre. Berlin, The Fix, Thompson Twins then The Police. I was more of a rocker and was there for the Police. I must say that Berlin and The Fixx were ok, but The Thompson Twins absolutely killed it. I was shocked. I had heard a couple of their songs on MTV, but they really had a great sound and energy live. Every time I hear them I think of that day.
Wow! You were lucky! I never was able to see The Thompson Twins live. I had a huge snow storm in CT and they cancelled the concert. I was crushed.
@@ShannonMacri90210 Bummer. Some bands sound great in the studio but ho hum live. Not the Thompson twins, they were great
Solid songwriting and musicianship. Thompson Twins are truly iconic.
I'm smiling, they jamming love the dancing 😅🎉
Still ❤️ the Thompson Twins..July 2023..Love The 80s Music..🎉😂🎉
Me too ❤️
❤ This kind of music doesn’t happen often 🎉.
I watched the Thompson Twins, Boy George and the B52's in Portland in 2019. Thompson Twins and B52's crushed it!!!!❤️🎉💯🙌
Lyrics and music were so relative to people’s lives and events while at the same time very uplifting! Love the 80s music and I appreciate it even more today at 60+
I heard this on MTV so much when I was in my 20's and didn't pay any attention. Now it's re-entered my mind at 65 for some mysterious reason and I am really loving it!
Yeah.... Maybe it's because
me too 🙂
its your subconscious saying ur an a hole for not listeining and reminding you what good music is lol
Did the wedding singer movie bring u back?😂
63 here
So many top bands in the 80’s. What would we give just to go back to that decade 🎉
I spend way too much time thinking about the way he claps around 3:45. It’s magical.
como no escuchar tremendas joyas soy un romantico empedernido soy alguien joven que prefiere esta hermosa musica y no las porquerias de hoy es un gran legado 😅😊❤
Life is simple - buy this vinyl - life goes on - keep it simple.
One of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. Perfection.
Miss truly 1984 March and April!! Good times and real music and talent than today music and beyond!!
I was 13 in 1984. The best song of my teen years.
Those years of magic.......coming home from school........Worzal Gummmage.....
You know I’m starting to like 80’s music
Listening to this classic is like going back to that beautiful past of high school, parties, fashion, fleeting courtships, etc.
Pop perfection that transcends pop music. The 80's was when musical ambition met new technology. Artists aspired to create with boldness and vision without sacrificing the craft of songwriting and legitimate musicianship.
1983 is that right?.jeez bloody brilliant.
Thompson Twins... Hold us now... Keep warming our cold and tired hearts.
Such a timeless classic it never ages it gets better with time 🎤
I remember we got cable back in 1983 the first song I heard on MTV was this one
I remember getting cable in 83 and this was amazing, Quiot Riot videos, Ah Ha, Take on Me!!! Lol
I so remember this song . I was 8 when it came out. And I can’t believe that it 40!years already.
It seems like only yesterday that my old friend Candy and I were up to are usual mischief. Made no difference Friday,Sunday,Wednesday all were fair game,eash night turned into the next till they all blended together. Each of us fighting our own demons and losing. Time after time we said we have to stop this insanity and grow up. This particular song reminds me of a love deeper than physical. A love for someone that you want to survive forever. Candy is one of the lucky ones who by the grace of God made it out. I miss her dearly and want only the best for her. I only wish I could just hold her now one more time to say goodbye.
I miss you dearly ❣️
...feel sorry for the current generation, that didn't got the joy of listening tonthis songs when they were on the radio. Before the dark times, before Spotify...😢
Isn't it amazing how real musicians can the simplest of lyrics into a masterpiece.
