Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.

I was born in July 1973. Everything about this video reminds me of my childhood. The good times. Thank you.

[MrGeezoos]

You my friend made a 40 years old guy cry. It is too much for me to handle. It brings all the peace, warmth, hope and love back to me. Thank You.

1999 was ABSOLUTELY the end of the world. It’s been awful ever since and it will never get better.

[aloysiuspaul]

Born in the 80’s...Raised in the 90’s...Thank God

[MikeBoardley]

Who is here because The Midnight is an amazing band?

[AlwaysFeelingSleepy]

I think we miss these times not only because of nostalgia, but because they were not so fast, so rushed, so crowded, so complicated. Yes, life can be a bitch and we all have problems, but now it’s like you live your life like an ant and people are in a hurry all the time. Information comes at the speed of light, stress comes with the sound of a BLING on your cellphone and everybody is looking for digital entertainment, rather than interacting with someone. We kept imagining the future in the 80’s and 90’s. Well, guess what? The future is here and it looks grim as shit.

Now we just look down, and worry about our place in the dirt."

A time when everything seemed possible

[LuminaireLRP]

85’ and happy to be born when I was. What a times to be a kid and dream. 💜✨

[pumpkinradio]

I was born in '81 so this video is almost too much. Its just a deluge of memories. We had all the toys and watched all the movies and cartoons. If you were young in the 80s it got inside of you in a way I can't even describe.

[Garymuslim]

Graduated 82’ then college 87’! The 80’s was a decade of transition.

[orion]

To all the 80s kids that grew up with Saturday morning cartoons, Nintendo, sleep overs and playing outside all day! 😎🍕🥳

[ktoth]

I’ve decided the reason millennial nostalgia hits so hard is because we were the last generation to come of age without the internet… we all had powerful shared experiences in terms of pop culture, cutting edge technology… without actually being networked together so we could each discover things on our own… and here we are 30 years later all looking back on the same collective childhood.

I saw ET in the movie theatre with Dad . at the end, everyone had shed a few tears . even my Father . that's one of the Best memories I had from the 80's, I saw my Dad as a human being and not some angry Marine Robot with 22 yrs of service.

[RSidd]

I am a 90s kid. But since I am from a third world country, ..most of the stuff broadcasted from American Entertainment in the 90s was from the 80s. So, ..this song is basically about everything I grew up with

[ViscountSinistere]

Hi I am now
approaching 70 so seen many decades , the 60, s started it all and as a Brit as a kid embraced it, the 70, s better still but honestly the 80, s were something else , a portal to our future with innocence , an enjoyment of new music and technology ! Lived in the US then and totally loved it, going to the mall and sitting in the arcade , no phones, no apps and constant social media ! We had the best of all worlds, the music was great, fashion simple and not expensive to most of us and I felt totally free and life was amazing ! Alas the future is even worse than we thought back then, we thought it would be fun but hell as a kid now alas it is like going back to 1935, EVIL is on the rise again, that,s not in the spirit of the 80, s, maybe that sensation will arise again !

[ZzzSquish]

I was literally born in 2003😂 and have never experienced any of this and I for some reason feel extremely nostalgic from this. 80s seem like the best thing ever

[bikinglikebecker]

the 80's is multi-generational.. EVERYONE loved the 80's... even some who weren't even born yet...
