i love how the comment section has collectively agreed that he died in 1995

Showing this to my kids saying it was legit 80s music

who's still listening to this in 2020? can't believe it's been 25 years since he died

Remember his group? The Most Palones? Good ol' times.

This song was playing when I got my 1st kiss behind the Ms. Pacman game at the arcade on 52nd street.

Anyone else remembers the controversies about his face tattoos? We've come a long way...

I remember when he died of overtattooed back in 95. Wish he knew how beautiful he naturally was. We still love you, Post.

I'm starting to actually believe he died in '95....

Remember when he dated Janet Jackson😂

I’ve convinced my parents this came out in the 80s

His son is okay, but he was a legend R.I.P '95 worst year for music history

I hear Pre-Malone will have a life documentary on Netflix soon. My mom used to always play his songs when I was so young. I know the lyrics to nearly all of them. RIP legend (1962-1995) 🕊

Remember back in summer '86 when he had drama with Michael Jackson because this man is messing with his sister Janet Jackson? damn good old time. Im still sad that he's gone tho. RIP Post Malone 1962-1995. Died but forgotten 💐

Post malone with long hair is a hit doe

I'm here for the alternative 80's peoples backstories.

It's been 26 years since we lost this legend. So sad. He had so much more to give. I'm heartbroken.

I remember dancing to this song in my senior prom! Class of 85' anyone? I miss those good old days...

I had my first kiss to this song in the arcade with a boy I didn't even like haha. RIP Mr. Post (1962-1995)

One of the most underrated artists of the 80s, glad that his son carries the torch. Rip Austin Post Sr.❤️ July 4th, 1962- December 17th, 1995

His son Post Malone Jr. covering his greatest hit literally broke my heart... Nothing can surpass this masterpiece, but Jr.'s cover holds so much emotion... RIP Post Malone Sr. (1962-1995)

Remember when he cut his hair? Crazy... I never thought he would break down like that again, first the face tattoos and then the hair... Rip legend, you will be sorely missed 😭

i remember the summer of '86 like no other. i was a young naive 16 year old and i remember speeding down the highway getting chased by the cops. i had a cassette of his best hits and it would play in the car during those chases. this song was my favorite on the tape. it was so sad to hear that he passed away in '95 due to a drug overdose right after his son austin richard post II was born. it's kind of strange that his son continues with the same name but i think he still makes great music! the original post malone's legacy will live on rip 1962-1995

Rumor has it that Post Malone once had a one-night stand with Cyndi Lauper.

It’s funny how this 80's remixes and their comments sections will confuse future generations... xD

I'm just gonna consolidate all the lore I like into one consistent timeline for the hell of it. Pre Malone was born in 1962 and was a popular rapper and singer throughout the 80s, albeit a controversial figure due to his face tattoos. He gained his prominence in the early 80s through collaborations with George Michael. He released this song, 'Circles' in the summer of '84 to massive success, landing on the soundtrack in a '86 movie starring a young Robert Downey Jr and Ariana Venti (the mother of Ariana Grande lol). The song managed to maintain radio play well into the late 90s and after his untimely death. He had beef with Michael Jackson in '86 after a short fling with Janet Jackson. Has a daughter named Water Malone and then passed away in 1995 shortly after the birth of his son Post Malone. There are differing accounts of his death ranging from drug overdose, being killed in a car accident after running a red light, being mysteriously murdered in his home, to faking his death and moving to Canada (I choose to believe in a combination of all the above lol). RIP in peace Pre Malone (1962-1995)

Oh, Pre-Malone, it’s been too long...these were truly the days. Now, his son continues is wonderful legacy, and has done a remake of this song under the new name, Post-Malone....the resemblance between them is startling. Even the same tattoos...truly a legend.

My mom told me stories about going to his concerts when she was in high school. She's still got a few of his CDs around the house. I wish I could've gotten to see him live, or at least heard some new music. 🌹RIP Malone 1962-1995🌹

Oh, this was a popular hit in the Philippines back in the late 80's. Mostly played on discos, especially during barrio fiestas.

I remember when they finally released this song in Asia. All the cassettes ran out.

The Weeknd -Blinding Lights (the 80s version) and it's just the actual song 😂😂😂

There's theories that Post didn't die, but that's disrespectful. Like come on, let the legend rest

There was a hot issue regarding his relationship with wham' before his demise on 1995

This song always brings me back to summer 1984. I had just had my first heartbreak, and I'd lay on the floor next to the record player, picking up the needle and starting the song over again. I wore that record out! RIP Post Malone. You got me through some tough times; I only wish someone could have helped you through yours.

The comment section really makes me feel like I stumbled upon an alternate universe.

This takes me back to ‘87 where I first heard the song while working at an animatronic themed pizza place. Stopped working there ever since the incident.

I can remember waking up the next morning after he died and turning on the news to find out he died. I called my best friend to tell him the news and he just started wailing. Even my wife started to cry and she didn’t even listen to him. Anyways I’m glad his son is carrying on his legacy. RIP PRE MALONE YOU WILL ALWAYS BE THE KING 👑👑👑

It's a tragedy that he was killed in his home in November 1995, I was so devastated by the news that I had to cry in front of my wife when I saw that on TV... Pre Malone was one of the most talented singers of the 80s, he even got to perform for the Grammy Awards of 1984, 1985 and 1988! The murder remains unsolved till this day and his son known under the name of Post Malone vowed to honor his father's memories by following his footsteps as a singer and by conducting his own private investigation in an effort to uncover the identity of his father's killer.

Was gonna go to bed but now I’m watching this

I remember that fateful morning when I turned on the TV and saw the horrible news.... played his music all day that day, I still have the tapes. What a true legend, gone but forgotten 😔 rip. 1962-1995

Therapist: Long-haired 80s Post Malone doesn't exist and can't hurt you. This video:

Damn Kids won't know this was the Jam back in the day. So, sad to see he passed away, he was such a talented and aspiring artist. Back in the year 1984 me and my friends used to listen to his songs when we ate lunch in Frankie's Home Diner back in Manhattan. You will forever be remembered, thank you for making our generation amazing and proud to live in a time where we got to see the legend himself. It's so tragic that Austin Richard Post II couldn't meet his father but he knows he was loved, I'm glad the kid is strong and brave and equally talented like his father and has also chosen to be a music artist, all the best wishes and brighter future to the kid. R.I.P Post Malone (1962-1995)

I remember hearing it all unfold on the Radio. When he ran a red light to get away from his abusive fan. Shortly after he was rushed to the hospital he died. Not from the fan but a drunk driver,... hit him causing his car to filp. Ive heard rumors that his body was so damaged the family didn't want to do a viewing.....in 1995 ugh so young. DONT DRINK AND DRIVE EVERYONE PLEASE we lost a legend because of it too🤧🥺. Also dont be abusive to anyone especially your Idol who constantly gets ridiculed. I still remember listening to this song with my pops at the car dealership. Good times😊

95 was when we lost this legend of a pop star ⭐️ much love to oldie songs

Pre Malone & The Stoney’s... I remember playing their debut album in 1981.. crazy how fast his solo career went by. 1995 was a very tough year, love ya Malone! ❤️🙏 Fly High

Feel like this is what joe exotic looked like at 22

The story is that he was supposed to sing a pivotal line in “We Are the World,” but he came late and drunk to the studio taping. Quincy Jones had no choice but to give that part to a young up and coming pop singer in order to get the song cut in time for worldwide release. That pop singer’s name . . . was Michael Jackson.

I was only 9 when Post died, but my mom always used to play him on the cassette player when she was doing housework. Resqueet impeaches. RIP in peace.

the nostalgia, I miss the 80's, really sad we lost him many years ago, we still love your music!

i remember those days

Dear Austin Richard Post Sr., Sometimes at random instances throughout the day, I think of you. I think of how thankful I am to have you in my life and about how your music spoke to me. When I felt like I had nowhere left to turn, there you were with an open heart and open arms. I never knew how much you would mean to me when I first listened to your music. There is just something I needed to say to you. Thank you for helping me find myself. You told me that this was my time to think about me and to be a little selfish. You helped me to realize my worth and to never let a situation define that. No matter what, I'm still me. Though it may sound vain or conceited, you made me realize how great of a person I am. I'm proud of myself and how far I've come. I was so low and had forgotten about my own needs, but you were always there to remind me. Though there is so much more I have to say to you, this just seemed to be the most important. When I heard news of your death, a part of me inside died. I could not believe it. You died way too young. Crazy what drugs do to your body. I can't believe it has been 25 years. Thank you for getting me through my tough time. I can't express to you how much you mean to me and how great of a friend you are. I turned to you from the very beginning and you were there until the end. I owe you the world. I love you and I miss you, dear friend. Rest in Peace, the original Post Malone 1962-1995. Sincerely, your biggest fan.

Austin was such a magnificent artist. He was so ahead of his time. Sad that he is no longer with us, but I'm happy his music has been discovered and more and more people are discovering his stuff! He is so underrated! I appreciate the remix version that was released! This helps spread Austin'd music so his short lived legend will live on!

I was too young to have seen him live before he died. '95 was a tragic year. I was blessed to be raised on his music. RIP '62-'95 pre Malone.

The comments in this channel makes me feel like i stumbled upon an actual alternate universe... Its *chilling* . . . *Stolen comment☝️*

R.I.P post Malone 1962-1995 , Ah I remember listening to this song on record with my good friend chris, at the time we were 17 years old, nieve and just had our first kiss such a special year in 83' so young and having fun R.I.P to the good old days I hope we can still have more but I mean its only 1989 so in the years to come well all have full lives to live

That summer of 82' this song was such a hit. I will never forget that blue eyed boy that skated with me while she looked at me, this song never stopped playing

This brings back such good memories! I remember driving my dad’s red ‘69 Mustang Mach 1 while listening to this. Me and my girlfriend went on a road trip to Miami back in the summer of ‘84, we left Atlanta and I remember I stopped for gas at a Shell gas station and I saw his band’s cassette tape, I bought it and I didn’t think much of it but when I played it we immediately fell in love with this song. I remember cruising on the highway and just listening to this while we both sang along for hours! We had such an amazing summer together, and this song brings me back again to the good old days. Now she’s my wife and every once in a while we both listen to this song and talk about the summer of ‘84, we both laugh and think about how amazing that road trip was! Well, bad news was that I scratched my dad’s Ford in a McDonald’s parking lot and he was pretty pissed, but hey, at least I had the best summer of my life. Rest In Peace Austin Post Sr. 🕊❤️ such an amazing man! Never forget! Thank you for all the memories! Me and my wife still listen to your songs ❤️

I can't believe he got the chance to collab with Hall and Oates around this time, what a small world. I heard he got the musical inspo from them in this song. It's too bad, he never got as much credit as they did. Either way, this album popped off in 85'.

My boyfriend, Lloyd, and I got back together to this song in 1989. We broke up because I had too much baggage. I found out that my dad had embezzled money from the seniors at his nursing home. I felt like my family was cursed. I had to let him go. He stood under my window in the middle of the night and blasted this mix tape on his boombox. We got married and had three kids. Good times.

Conceived my daughter to this song Back in ‘85 Man 25 years seems like yesterday I was listening to this first come out on the radio Rip Pre Malon Happy so see your son Post is following in your footsteps

This song was very popular among the jet-set crowd all across Latin America during the 1980's. It was a time when democracy was slowly returning to the region and many people felt it was a song that represented a newly found freedom that was repressed and denied by years of hard-line dictatorships. The youth of Latin America utilized this song as their personal anthem to liberty and prosperity.

i remember riding my bike in '87 with my headphones on. even when it was nighttime. Feeling the breeze on my face with this classic playing. Rest in peace. (1962-1995)

Ahh, as a 2000s child, this brings back all those memories of being in the land before the womb. This song played on repeat. Me and all the other not-yet-babies rocked out.

I remember in '90s my grandma used to turn on the radio and they used to play the song all the time. Rest in peace Pre Malone. And I am glad his son Post Malone carrying his legacy.

This is genuinely fantastic.

I remember when I was a naive teenage girl back in '83. This song brought my boyfriend, Chad, and I together at a party. I'll never forget that day. We're happily married now and have 18 children. RIP Past Malone, 1980-1984.

awh man! Post was the best rapper in the 80's. It breaks my heart that he died. RIP Post (1962-1995)

i was roller skating and not paying attention to what was in front of me and i bumped into a boy while this song was playing, were married now with 3 kids and 2 dogs. i love listening to this song with my kids and husband. thank you for posting this song for the youth to know about the good times.

I was 1 years old when this man passed. I have always hated I was not around to see him play live.. I can only imagine the following he would have today if he had not passed away in 95 from a ford bronco accident. The 2021 Bronco First edition is promising to release a limited edition Post Malone that includes a vintage poster and soft top cover print of Post from this album. rest in peace, hero

I love how the song is heard. Thank you very much.

God dude, just listening to this brings the memories flooding back... I remember when this song dropped in '86. I was a Junior in highschool and I had been crushing on this girl like crazy. We ended up going to prom together that year and this was the final song of the night. We danced together and I took the oportunity to kiss her and tell her how much she meant to me. She was touched and after highschool we got married and have been together ever since. We moved to upstate New York (we were from New Jersey) and have 2 beautiful children. It really is a shame he passed in '95. He was such a legend. Thanks Post for all the wonderful songs and the memories that now come with them. Gone but never forgotten. R.I.P 1962-1995 ❤

All those cool summer nights back in ‘84. I would just drive through the night while this song played on the radio. I didn’t know where I was going, but it always put my mind at ease. RIP to a legend (1962-1995)

95 was such a hard year......we lost Post, Selena, Easy E. RIP to them all. I still play their music for my children.

Post was such an icon, very controversial at the time with his face tattoos, RIP a legend ✊

Certified banger

Its 2021 now.. I still remember the days when this was playing in the radio in the summer of '86 we were young dumb but free back then I still miss you Post (1962-1995)

My parents kept telling me about Pre Malone when I was growing up. I only wish I could've had the chance to meet him. Legend. 🕊️

I love the energy we’ve created in the studio today!!😂 also the comment section is everything, you guys have me in stitches😂😂

i still remember that day in 1995 like it was yesterday 😔 the news of his death hit me very hard. RIP legend

after 40 years, and i still love this song.

He died a year before I was born, but I still grew up with his music. My older siblings always loved playing his music when they babysat me!

It was in 1994 when I was three I remember this song. It was still played so much because it was a timeless classic. I will always miss the 80s even though I never had the privilege of living in it. Thanks Post RIP

I still cant get over the fact that he left the band AHA to go solo.

we used to record this on a cassette tape back then. good times!

I hope I live long enough to see the 80s

Woh I’m actually crying because of how good this is

Remember when he revealed to be the real father of Billie Jean's son??? Good ol' times

I remember seeing him with Joan Jett. The concert was just awesome. Rip post Malone 1962 - 1995. Rip but never forgotten. Dude was the real deal then 😭💐

These 80's mix versions really needs a loop rewind button~

My dad has a collection of his Albums and always plays them when I was a kid. This just brings back memories for me❤️

I hear he didn’t die in 1995. It could be an urban legend but I hear he moved up to Canada and got his tattoos removed and changed his name. Anyways, I’ll always miss him wether that’s true or not. His music speaks to me deeply.

Been a fan of this guy for 25 years! God damn, time flies by.

1996 was not the same without this legend. RIP

I remember them playing this song at prom of ‘86 and and the roller rink in ‘96. Man, them was the good ole times! I met the loml at the roller rink while the song was playing. Damn, he was so fine. We both loved this song. It seemed like this song was the start to EVERY relationship. Idk what he had in him, but whatever it was, it was powerful. But sadly, this dude named Micheal Jackson killed him because he found out that post was cheating on his sister, Janet Jackson. Smh. Rip Posty. 🙏🏾🕊😥

If time travel was real, I would go back to the 80's just to see him live in concert. At least your music will live on forever. RIP. Gone way too soon.😥

RIP legend. this '84 still the best version, i dont care about your son or about who was his real mother. at least he bring this to new generation.

Pre Malone was my jam back in '86. Damn, what a legend...RIP 1962-1995

I was born in the wrong generation! so sad he had already passed before I was born, what a legend

I love how you manage to make Post Malone look dirtier in this image.

The other day I was in the car with my kids and this song was playing but it was different. My kid said “I love this song” in my mind I said “the old one was better”. When we got home I told the kids to play. I went to my room to cry. I was thinking about when the original was around. Good times
