I graduated from high school in 1984. "Self Control" and Laura Branigan were one of the many talented artists I would listen to on the radio. I worked in a grocery store as a bagger that summer, while I waited to enroll in college in the Fall. 84 was a great year.

I lived to dance in the 80's, out several nights a week, every week. I'd spend hours on the dance floor, oblivious to all save the music and my dance. This was not just my favorite dance song from the 80's, it was the embodiment of my soul. Hearing it again summons not just the memories but the emotion of the time.

Voice of a phenomal singer. Looked like a model. Dressed so elegantly. You don’t need to reveal everything to be sexy and beautiful and seductive and break men’s hearts 💕. Pure class. RIP Laura.

After 39 years i have seen this video.Actually i saw it in sometimes in 1984 in a tv show named SOLID GOLD when i was just 4 years at age. Laura has pure tone. I Don't know why crying is coming.possibly due to rememorize of the past time.

True singers in the past. Beautiful Voice, good music and attitude. Nowadays only a few can be noticed as good ones.

"In the day nothing matters, it's the night time that flatters". --- I always thought that was a clever line.

I absolutely LOVED Self Control when it came out! 🎶❤️🎶 I don't know if I like Self Control or Gloria better ! They are about the same for me. Such great songs! Love you my mom hi for me, and Olivia! 🌹 😇 🌹

Self Control was the stand out song from the long hot summer of 1984, the year I left school, I was 16 but seems like yesterday, still as fresh and vibrant today as it was all those years ago.

Nothing will ever change my memories along with great times and music of the 80s. So glad to have lived that era in my 20s.
