Anyone 2024?

Never regret the decisions you made because no one knew which was the best. This is told to you by an old man who has lived through many experiences and has achieved successes and failures. And the best of my life is when I loved and was loved. Now, in the fall of my life, I only live on memories. Very good memories, by the way.

It is impossible for me to listen to this song without crying, not because of the lyrics of the song, but because of the time. My mind travels back in time and I remember what life was like then, everything was much purer and I could walk, today I can't anymore. Many people in my family that I loved are no longer here.

Man in his 70s here.I blinked and my life is nearly over .do what you want.sing and dance in the rain .dont care what people think of you.its a short ride .enjoy it 😊

在台中憲兵隊當兵時 副排長～李志璋最❤的歌（洗澡時他必放這首歌）我也很愛這歌。感嘆時光飛逝如梭 現在聽到這首歌會想起當時當兵的酸甜苦辣日子。（必哭）

I'm 16 years old now, but thinking about getting old makes me cry. What a pity, without parents there is no meaning in life. After all, someday I will be 20 or more. I'll enjoy my teenage years and do crazy things, confess my love and have fun🫶🏻

Читаю комментарии к этому шедевру. Как много замечательных людей моего поколения! Всем привет, кто жил в 80е! У нас есть ресурсы в таких песнях!

Now I’m almost 15, but listening to this song you understand how quickly time passes and you will never be here and now in this moment again, maybe in 20 years I’ll see this comment again, for sure I’ll have something to remember from my youth)

I’m 62 now my life has flashed by , I’ve lost most of my family and it’s a privilege getting old these days , do what you want to do and don’t worry about what people think. One day you won’t be able to do these things, this is my funeral song . Take care and enjoy your time here.

I was sitting in a bar on Christmas Eve many, many years ago by myself. It was around 10pm and the place was full of people mingling, I was the only one sitting alone. This song came on. I remember leaving the bar while walking through fresh snow to my house, thinking about the song. It was such a surreal experience. I was 26. Now I'm...old.

I remember hearing this song at a party when I was 15 and thinking how sad it is to be old and remember you were young once. And today I am 42 years old ...

мне 17, я слушаю эту песню и наслаждаюсь молодость и свободой:) лет через 30 напишу как все поменялось

This song will always be relevant. Who doesn't want to be forever young? Young people reading this, savor every moment. Treat people right. Be happy. No matter how hard it is, try to find a bright side. No point in living a depressing life, if you choose to keep living then choose to be happy and savor every moment.

As we get older, Songs like this and its meaning hits deeper and deeper.

люди, которые слушают эту песню и прекрасным образом наткнулись на этот комментарий, для начала, я бы хотела пожелать вам каждый день просыпаться с улыбкой на лице, и неважно, сколько вам лет - 14 или 60. мне 15 лет. я год находилась в тяжелой депрессии, из которой смогла успешно выбраться. в апреле 2024 года умер мой одноклассник, который был здоровым и счастливым. после этого я задумалась о том, что надо ценить абсолютно каждую секунду этой жизни. веселитесь, не думайте о негативном мнении других людей, особенно незнакомых. делайте те вещи, которых жаждет ваше сердце. находите красоту в любых мелочах. я осознала это совсем недавно, но стала в разы счастливее. даже если вы уже не молоды, ваша жизнь продолжается. будьте счастливы!

To any kids or teenagers reading this, PLEASE live freely and experience everything you can! Have fun, do dumb stuff with your friends, go on adventures, make use of every single day you have! Unfortunately I suffered from mental health issues through my younger years and as a now 25 year old feel like those years of innocence and freedom passed me by and I don’t wish anyone else to feel this way, youthful innocence is one of the most beautiful parts of life and doesn’t last forever so enjoy every day!

I was 17 at these happy times and I loved this song. And I still do. I am 55 now...years have passed. And all the hopes of my youngness were flown away. Unfortunatly, nobody stays "forever young"

Как же так мне 28, при прослушивании этого шедевра,слезы текут непроизвольно,столько мыслей сразу о жизни и о вечном и как же мы все скоротечны Так давайте же друзья стремиться к совершенству и ценя все что вокруг нас!!)))

Я клянусь это песня будет играть на моей свадьбе и на моих похоронах!!!!! Мне сейчас 24, вернусь сюда через пару лет(посмотрим как будут развиваться события)

Непередаваемо красиво. Аж ком в горле. Боже, какая же музыка была раньше! Абсолютно гениально и невыразимо трогательно. Наверное, тогда люди были более человечными. Огромное спасибо из России

Who listen this masterpiece in 2024??? Kisses from Spain...❤❤❤❤❤

I am 19 in that year, I think I am very lucky seeing so many great music created by great people in 1980s.

I've just seen him singing, at 69, he still has the same voice, it's wonderful, and I feel very touched. His voice is forever young ❤️I find this song even more powerful now I'm 54...

kenapa lagu ini naik ke permukaan? lagu ini adalah lagu kesukaan ayah saya hampir setiap hari beliau mendengarkan lagu ini. dan tepat dibulan April lalu ayah saya meninggal. Terimakasih Alphaville sudah menciptakan lagu ini. dan pada akhirnya ayah saya meninggal diusia muda dan akan tetap muda untuk selamanya

Back in 2016 when my dad was hospitalized he was listening to this song, he then told me "do you know this song ? I want it to be played at my funeral". Few weeks later "Forever Young" became one of this song i cannot listen without crying. I miss you dad.

A lot of immortal songs came 1984. Incredible this song will be 40 years old 2024. Amazing!

Nell anno in cui è uscita ero ventenne, non pensavo che il tempo potesse scorrere così velocemente, adesso con 40 in più mi ritrovo ad ascoltarla con le lacrime agli occhi

Aproveitem a adolescência de vocês meus amores, hoje tenho bastante história pra contar pros meus netos, escrevendo isso com um sorriso no rosto lembrando da minha adolescência

I first heard this beautiful song as a young 12 year old boy and I am hearing it today on my 50th birthday. It is even more poignant and holds more meaning to me now. Life goes by in the blink of an eye.

I will never forget singing this song for countless hours with my friends in school. Despite not having seen them in years, it takes me back to those times. It is so nostalgic and beautiful. I guess I'll never forget the words to this song

Сейчас мне 20 лет, и я понимаю что в более взрослом возрасте, снова буду слушать эту песню и скучать по молодости.

I’m 21 right now, and i realize that i’m at the best age in my life. Beaty, energy, passion everything is in a peak level, so i just want appreciate this time and state so i just want to live without doubts, regrets, fears. Time flies, but moments and its impressions lasts forever. Stay safe and be grateful for your situation 🙏

This song reminds me so much of my father. My brother played it for him on his 70th birthday. I still sob like a baby whenever I listen to it. Thanks for everything, dad.

I am a 14 year old and my dad lisents to this, i cant count the amount of times i heared it in car trips, back then this music didnt mean anything to me, now, it does, growing up is realising dads music is the best, I love this song so much.

I am 46 now. I feel this song in my chest. Deep in my soul. But what a wonderful life. EVERYTHING is beautiful. I hope they let me stay another half century. Much love, y'all. Take that trip. I moved to Costa Rica in my 20's and never looked back. Ask that girl out. Eat the cheesecake first. Learn another language. Tell everyone you meet that you love them and let it be the truth.

man. with a song like this, your job as a musician is complete. I cannot possibly word how perfect this song is and all the mixed feelings it evokes. it's simply incredible.

I lost my 35 year old son on Sunday and this song has been playing in my mind.

I'll look at this comment to remember my youth 20.07.2024

J'écoutais Alphiville dans les années 80...aujourd'hui j'ai 50ans, je l'écoute toujours mais mes sentiments sont différents... Pourquoi vieillir ? Mais rester jeune à l'infini serait-ce mieux...? Je regrette tellement cette période des années 80. Ça me manque tellement ces années d'insouciance ou tout était bien et soi disant parfait... 😊😉

This song makes me cry, listening to it just makes me realise that one day I'll be old and all those people I've know, my parents, my grandparents, my sibling, they will be gone,just thinking about it makes my heart break, I'm 17 all my life I've always wanted to be a grown-up but now that I think about it, I don't really want to grow up.

Forever Young Alphaville Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while Heaven can wait, we're only watching the skies Hoping for the best, but expecting the worst Are you gonna drop the bomb or not? Let us die young or let us live forever We don't have the power, but we never say never Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip The music's for the sad men Can you imagine when this race is won? Turn our golden faces into the Sun Praising our leaders, we're getting in tune The music's played by the, the mad men Forever young, I want to be forever young Do you really want to live forever? Forever, and ever Forever young, I want to be forever young Do you really want to live forever? Forever young Some are like water, some are like the heat Some are a melody and some are the beat Sooner or later, they all will be gone Why don't they stay young? It's so hard to get old without a cause I don't want to perish like a fading horse Youth's like diamonds in the Sun And diamonds are forever So many adventures couldn't happen today So many songs we forgot to play So many dreams swinging out of the blue We let them come true Forever young, I want to be forever young Do you really want to live forever? Forever, and ever Forever young, I want to be forever young Do you really want to live forever? Forever, and ever Forever young, I wanna be forever young Do you really want to live forever?

Eu trabalhava à noite em uma rádio, onde eu apresentava um programa de flashback. Esse som é muito nostálgico de uma.juventude bem vivida...❤🥰

Who is 2024?

My brother passed away last summer because of cancer. This was one of his favorite songs. We played it during his funeral. Now I cannot listen to this song the same ever again. I miss you big brother

This song has been playing on repeat in my head after I just lost a dear old friend last night 9/13/2021. He was 50 and we grew up together. I hadn't seen him in some 25 years until I paid a surprise visit to him in the hospital on August 27th. We had a great one-on-one visit, a visit meant to be and a reunion with 17 days to spare. I told my old friend I loved him and he said he loved me too. Rest in peace, Robert Nielsen (April 19, 1971-September 13, 2021). You will always be "Forever Young"❤

21.07.2024 мне сейчас 18 лет.Наслаждаюсь своей молодостью.Надеюсь через лет 20-30 вернусь сюда снова и мне будет что рассказать.

I was born in 96 and these 80s songs literally give me goosebumps. Truly jelous of everyone who experienced the 80s. Before the world got..... the way it is.

To all people that have died young, you will forever be young.

"some are like water, some are like the heat, some are the melody and some are the beat, but sooner or later they'll all be gone"... Cherish every moments, many of my teenage friends passed away at young age, I'm 28 and still young but there are a lot of times when I want to turn back time, I wanna relive those beautiful days, no responsibility, no tension, no stress, but this is life, there are things we can't have, we can't keep, today i always spend my time alone, no more hanging out, no more peaceful days, I can't forget about this song which I used to listen without thinking how deep it means when I was young, but today I can't stop my tears, I really wish we could stay forever young...

28.05.24Привет всем из Бурятии..(РОССИЯ)..ЛЮБЛЮ ВАС ВСЕХ,..ДАВАЙТЕ ВСЕ,ВСЕ,ВСЕ..ЖИТЬ ДРУЖНО...😢

one of the best things about 50 years old,is the fact that i lived my teenage years in the 80's that is priceless and Iam grateful !!!

Heard this song for today for the 1st time on the 1st day of 2022. I just turned 65, it brought tears to me as I did my 9 mile run this morning preparing for the Los Angeles Marathon. My date with destiny is March 20th, Let this song ring throughout my consciousness the whole way.

Eu amo essa música por que é de três metros acima do céu!!😢😢eu sempre choro!! 😢😢esse vídeo é o melhor de todos não tem como meu Deus ele é perfeito eu não aguento ficar sem essa música!!!essa música mexe comigo demais!!!!!……!!!!!!

Я услышала впервые это песню наверное в лет так 18.. сейчас мне 34.. тогда мой путь только начинался. За эти годы произошло много всего.. взлеты, потери, рождение дочери, карьера и ее крах, брак и его крах..сейчас я в полном обнулении в новой стране и рада тому, что все же я еще молода и надеюсь став мудрее, проживу достойно свою жизнь..

"Some are like water, some are like the heat, some are a melody and some are the beat"..."Youth's like diamonds in the sun..." The lyrics to this song are pure poetry.

My sisters friend died in a bike accident when she was 16 in 1993. She stayed in her room for a week replaying this song over and over again. RIP Franny. We are now middle aged and you are forever 16

It's the most soulful song I've ever heard.❤

*Anyone* *this* *in* *watching* *2024* *.*

I think what sense of that song same for all people in the world. And doesnt matter where are we from because im sure, what we feeling light sadness and sweet young memories and little child inside us is smilling. abraço de Angola

When this song was released, I was 26 years of age. I felt super young, full of energy today I'm 64 years of age Life changes I just swept the floors and swept down cobwebs and out of breath I feel old and not so much energy as in my 20's. Being young is 100% better than getting up in years. But love this song so beautiful thank you for uploading it. I sold my 5,000-record album collection some years back. I now go to internet to listen to music instead of owning bunch of CD's and LP's these days. I did waste lot of money on Music over $15,000.00 maybe even more. But we buy what we love. I hope all are happy and grateful in their life's, wars come and go but to be peaceful thankful within is priceless.

This song is a real kick in the gut for me. I remember being a young kid, growing up, having friends and hanging out all day playing ball or whatever. Fast-forward 40 years, most of those friends have moved away to raise families, some passed away, others just vanished into the abyss. Here I am 53, contemplating my future, my legacy, most of my family passed away and all I have are memories.

This song is such an emotional rollercoaster. I heared it first when I was like 10-12 and didn't think much of it, only that it has a nice tune. Now that I'm 20 years old, the song has a lot deeper meaning and it will only get more and more sentimental as I age. I no longer have any grandparents, my parents are going to be 50 soon, life is too short to dwell on mistakes. Love people and in return be loved. That's what life is about.

This song will never get old! Rather, it's an eternally youthful masterpiece! No, I truly believe that this is a masterpiece that will remain forever youthful!

This song has been in my head for the past 10 days. Never thought I'd grow up in the end of the Cold War to see my kids grow up in the next.

2024 and still forever young ❤

heard this song live last night in munich.. couldn’t stop crying but was defo one of the best experiences i’ve ever had in my miserable life

This song really speaks to me. A lot of my friends from my high school days died early, girlfriends and homies, but I remember them as their young selves.

Слушая эту песню вся жизнь пролетает перед глазами и хочется 😢 плакать...Спасибо за лучшую песню .Будьте вечно Молодыми...

This song really has that 80s sound

I’m 17 now and I think I’m very lucky seeing so many great music created by great people in 1980s . I’m teenager now and songs like this attract me

This was my high school anthem. When you are 17 you think you will live forever. Blink and you are 71. Make your life amazing. You have one shot.

One of those of 80's songs that still speaks volumes about both the state of the world and the feelings of youth, all despite being written decades ago. Amazing song.

Listening to this 40 years later in 2024. Still as fabulous as it was in 1984 when I was 18

*This* *is* *not* *song* *.* *This* *is* *timeless* *masterpiece* *.*

I was 19 years old with the whole world ahead of me. In the blink of an eye I’m 58 and trying to understand where did time go❤️

My sweet brother and my twin died 2 years ago ,when I play this bitter sweet tune I feel him beside me with his arms around me with a message of love and hope,I dedicate this to all our fallen loved ones who will always dwell in our hearts and souls,bye Peter ❤

There´s something incredibly nostalgic of staying forever young and staying young back in the 80s... Feeling the blues with this song all the time. RIP my lovely and wonderful 80s while I grow old...

Beste deutsche Band

Колись слухала цю пісню,у фільмі «Три метри над рівнем неба»і досі вона одна з найкращих♥️Шкода,що ніхто не може бути вічно молодим та й ще коли кожен твоє життя може закінчитись у будь-якому моменті,бо на твою країну напав агресор(Та кожна повітряна тривога твоє життя та близьких на волосинці.Тому твоя молодість приходить,у пандемію та вій…ну😔

My wife lost her life in 2014 she was 36 when I hear this song it reminds me of Emma.Forever young.

We're not looking for these old songs, we're looking for the memories they hold

This song gets more beautiful as time goes on It hits harder as you get older Fantastic song A+++ don’t let it fade away ever 👌👍

hermosa canción atemporal ,eterna siempre tan bella quien no quisiera ser para siempre joven!

My daughter Rebekha passed 21 months ago. I heard this song for the first time yesterday on a random Spotify play. Rebekha will be forever young in my heart and. those who love her particulary her children. If you are a young person reading this remember that life is beautiful and there is a world of great people for you to meet. Be kind in your words. and in. your deeds; do no harm for no reason and be at peace with yourself.

I remember how this song was played at my high school after a student committed suicide. Although I never knew him very well, I knew that this was his favorite song. Remember, and be forever young.

Como um ser humano não pode gostar dessa nostalgia e perfeição ✨ 🤌🏼🎼“eternamente jovem”✨

Agradeço há Deus por ter nascido em 73 hoje entendo quando meu pai chorava ouvindo músicas do seu tempo

It's 2016 and I'm still crying😭😭😭this song hits me in the feels😭😭😭

I was 11 when this gold hit the charts in 84. I want to live forever. But I won't, bout to be 50 and hate it! Thankful, at least, that I was able to experience the magic that was the 80s. A kid/teen in high school for the end of the 80s. It was a WONDERFUL time. Miss it. Like so many of my fellow human beings I wish I could go back and make different choices.

I'll admit i found this song on tiktok but that doesnt change my love for it and how i cry everytime i hear it, especially the chorus

Its 4th of july and this is a perfect song to listen to today.

I won't ever forget the night me, my buddy and his girlfriend were laying on the floor baked listening to this song from start to finish. I shed a tear that night but they don't know.

This song was released in Germany in 1984 during the cold war. it's about trying to make the best of life amid the fear and paranoia of a possible nuclear extintion. 36 years later the lyrics still hits me hard it´s giving me a feeling of anexiety and powerlessness….. the fragility of my existence and that one day i will be gone and fade away. i start thinking about the absurdity of life… the conflict between the human tendency to seek inherent value and meaning in life, and the human inability to find any in a purposeless, meaningless or chaotic and irrational universe…….

This trumpet solo still gives me goosebumps oh my lord

Who’s listening to this masterpiece in 3045 ? !!

This is just another one of these epic and ultimate 1980's songs. The musical quality of 1984 beats 2016 truly by 1000 - 0 ;)

Born in 61. I will never grow old 😊

I’m 19 turning 20 and overseas in the US Marines, I feel like just yesterday I was 16 flying down backroads with my buddies and doing shit high schoolers do. I’ll blink and wake up and be 25. Then I’ll blink once more and be 40. I’ll go to sleep one night and be 80 if I’m lucky. It’s insane how fast life truly does go by. Thank you to all the older people in the comments for your kind words, wisdom, and love. May God Bless you all ❤

Reminds me of serving in the British Army in Germany and we did Exercise Lion Heart 1984. This song was played a lot and of course at the height of the cold war, So are you going to drop the bomb or not. Great times great lads the memories will always be with me. I came back today from the exercise and it brought it all back
