I don’t care what anyone says - the 80’s had the best music EVER!

Its now 2024 and I am still loving this song!

This is arguably the Most '80s song and video ever produced. It has everything-- 1. Electronic drums that sound like thunder. 2. Good-looking gap-tooth lead singer with the most magnificent mullet ever. 3. The keytar. 4. Obligatory hot woman for the eye candy factor 5. Future hot-rod builder Chip Foose on the sax. 6. Catchy, feel-good vibe. 7. Chorus that just delightfully sticks in your head. When this song and video hit MTV, it must have been like the ENTIRE '80s landed at once. The '80s ruled.

The mullet, the keytar, the sax solo. This is the Pinnacle of the beautiful 80s

This video is officially the most 80s video of all time. Guitar keyboard - check Glorious mullet - check Red leather jacket - check Saxophone solo in silhouette - check Denim on denim - check

I was 12 when this song came out and I remember sitting up all night trying to catch it on the radio to "tape" it on an old cassette. Then i took it with me on a roadtrip with my family to the beach. I remember rewinding it over and over. 34 years later and the song still stings me with intense nostalgia and brings me right back there. Love and peace to any fellow 80s kids who still return to these songs for comfort. ❤

The music of the 80's was the best.❤❤❤

I love how 80s songs dont end, they just fade away 😂

I'm 53 years old and never get tires of listening to 80's tunes.

That is the gold standard of mullets.

ACDC, INXS, Icehouse, Midnight oil, Crowded House, Air Supply, Little River Band...the list goes on.. a small country with a huge musical footprint. Thank you Australia!

I turn 55 on Thursday, I have not heard this song in years, hearing it makes me miss the 80's so much, lots of great memories 🥲

This song is 35 years old and never gets old. Ahhh the '80s.

I'm 26 years old, from Canada (Québec). I usually listen to music from the 80s/90s/00s. This song just pierced my heart and I'm hooked. Australian new wave tracks are incredibly underrated Stay electric!

Im 56. This was my/our pop music in the 80s. So many great pop songs. Have you listened to pop music these days?? .....no comparison. 80s music rules!

1987 was an incredible year for amazing music and Icehouse was one of the greats.

This was the year of Australian mega hits. Icehouse, INXS, Midnight Oil... I LOVED it and still do. THIS is music!!

Who else is here in 2020 listening to this amazing song???

2023, this song has stood the test of time. Brilliant

2023 and still love this song. This and Crazy were pretty big singles in the UK. The whole Man Of Colours album is fantastic. Iva's voice has such a pure quality to it

80's music will never get old

The 80s were the best decade by far.

This dude is not only a singer, he composed all the music for the movie ‘Master And Commander’ legit genius.

Millennial here! This may have been a bit before my time, but it's one of my favorite songs. 💙💙💙

This video/song has it all: really mullety mullet, gap tooth, keytuar, electronic drums, saxophone solo, guitar has a whammy bar, they are playing on top of a "gritty" building, girl dancing against a brick wall in the dark, it is so 80's.

I'm 46 and I still listen to 80's music as if I'm still living in the era which actually I am

I'm a migrant who came to this Great Southern Land in 2015 -- same year I first heard this song on the radio onboard a ferry to Manly -- I had to hold my phone near the speaker to Shazam the title :D This song and Great Southern Land are rightfully my migrant songs in AU. 8 years and counting, I am now a citizen and hearing this song brings back so many memories of my start in Sydney. Those who listened to this in the 80's how lucky are you folks that you have such a great soundtrack of your lovely good 'ole days

Gen z here 2023 and our generation is still loving this band, Congrats Iva,YOUVE DONE IT ❤

Been hearing so many of these 80's songs and I think I got this "feel good formula" figured out. Back in the 80's there was no internet in homes, no cell phones and no social media. It was go outside and play or listen to your stereo in your room. Or just put on your walkman headphones and walk around. Live radio also kept us in suspence not knowing what song will come on next, so we tresured all these great ones when the moment came to us, not us creating that moment, MISS that feeling !

My seven-year-old daughter just told me she wants to listen to Electric Blue all night. I just found it last night after having forgotten it for decades. A wonderful rediscovery.

my favorite 80's song ! i'm 49 years old and still love this ♪

NO MUSIC, WILL EVER BEAT THE TALENT & SOUND OF THE 80S

I've been on an 80's binge and all I have to say is I want my 80's back.

There is no music like this anymore

This song epitomizes my teenage years all within the 80s. Will music ever be this good again?…….

If a boy had a chance A chance with someone like you Are you gonna break his heart? Let him cry for the moon? Are you hiding somewhere behind those eyes? I just freeze (I just freeze) Every time you see through me (see through) And it's all over you Electric blue On my knees (on my knees) Help me, baby (help me) Tell me, what can I do? Electric blue Oh, I had a dream For a moment I believed it was true Oh, I'd have given anything Just to be there with you Are you hiding Somewhere behind those eyes? I just freeze (I just freeze) Every time you see through me (see through) And it's all over you Electric blue In too deep (in too deep) Standing here waiting As I'm breaking into (ooh) Electric blue I can see (I can see) Can see that it may be just a vision for you Electric blue On my knees (on my knees) Help me, baby (help me) Tell me what can I do? Electric blue Help me baby Yeah, yeah Are you hiding somewhere behind those eyes? (behind those eyes) I just freeze every time you see through me (see through) And it's all over you Electric blue In too deep (in too deep) Standing here waiting as I'm breaking in two (in two) Electric blue I can see (I can see) Can see that it may be just a vision of you (of you) Electric blue On my knees (on my knees) (what can) Help me baby tell me what can I do? (I do) Electric blue (behind those eyes) I just freeze every time you see through me And it's all over you Electric blue In too deep (in too deep) (I'm) Standing here waiting as I'm breaking in two (in two) Electric blue I can see (I can see) Can see that it may be just a vision of you Electric blue On my knees (on my knees) (what can) Help me baby tell me what can I do? (I do) Electric blue Electric blue Electric blue Electric blue

It is beyond crazy how a song can capture the essence of an entire decade. Not every moment of the 80s was 'great' ... nothing is ever perfect ... but that decade was as close to perfect as one could get on this planet.

Those were the days

Wow. What a blast from the past. The 80's were the time of the 'Australian invasion' in music. Great band. I miss those years, the music and the good times with friends and family. Cheers all.

Few artists today can match the uniqueness and quality of music that came out of the 80's. Electric Blue is one of my favorites by Icehouse and whenever I hear it, I am transported back to my college experience. When John Oates co-wrote Electric Blue with Iva Davies, who would think that the song would still be inspirational nearly four decades later.

*I could not believe this high quality song is over 30 years* *80's beat never gets old*

Blessed to have been born in 1970 and was in highschool during the latter 80s!! BEST YEARS OF MY LIFE!!!!

The singer's hair captures the essence of the 80s as much as the music does. I was in my teens and early 20s in the late eighties.. I was there, I know 😂

You blokes down under have great music. The 80s were perfect! Icehouse, Mondo Rock, Cold Chisel, Men at Work and many many more. Greetings from Croatia!

Please take me back to the 80's, the world was truly a better place at that time!

I like how the saxophone guy is just walking around like... is it time for my number yet?

Oh, the 80s! What a great time to be a kid or teenager. I was about 12 when this song came out and it reminds me of summer nights at the baseball fields, playing outside all day, camping out, scary movies, Friday nights at the football field. My Dad was a coach. Music was great back then and listening to this brings all of those memories back. Back then I wanted to be an adult. I would love to go back to those days!

And the gold medal for mullets has been awarded.

If I had one wish, it would be to wake up tomorrow morning and find myself returned to the 80's...

I want to wake up in the morning to the 1980's and realize that the Covid-19 world I lived in was just a bad dream...

I was 14 years and i still love. Electric blue what' a song i love the 80s forever❤

My best song of all times. Loved going round the club circuit in the 80's. I got to meet Iva,And got his autograph,which I still have today! 2023

Holy cow. I'm 12 again listening to this song and dreaming about my crush. I'm 45 now but love these memories from the 80s!

This song is proof we 80s people have the greatest soundtrack ever!

The songs that came out in the 80's amazes me... my dad taught me this song and I'm only 12. I never stop listening to it. And I never wanna stop.

I discovered this band on the Netflix movie The Stranger, superb music! Captures the spirit of the carefree 80's perfectly. So pleased I found this band

The 80s we're the best year's of my life. I'm looking for the rest button.

What an amazing song! I’m so glad I grew up during this era.

That sax riff in the bridge is the second best saxophone lick ever, only behind Gerry Rafferty's all-time greatest creation "Baker Street." Insane.

just adore this song! 36 years later and I still listen to it and love it more and more and more and appreciate these talents guys.

Who else just wants to jump through their computer screen and go back to the 80s?

I NEVER GET TIRED OFTHIS SONG ITS JUST AMAZING

It's 2023 and I have somehow re-discovered these guys.. every song... So Aussie and so perfect. Thanks Icehouse 👊🖤

His voice is so clear and he sings so effortlessly❤

1987...I was 17 and in my senior year of high school. Some songs hit a certain way and bring me right back to those days. This is one of them. I wish I could be back there again ❤️

In 2022, my 14 yo daughter loves this song so I think that's a testament to what a great song it is!

Damn, it's been 35yrs. The 80s was like that. I, was in love then and this was one of our songs. ❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊🎉🎉🎉🎉😢❤❤❤😅😅😅.

Timeless. The quality of this band with their music..style and the essence of the 80's is unsurpassed. Big fan...HUGE!!! 🤟😎

Awwww the memories.... If someone ever invents a time machine i would go back to the eighties and stay there!

I am from Argentina, my adolescence in the 80s was crowned by this music. I can't believe that what is said to be successful today is real shit. There are no lyrics, no melodies, everything is image, no talent, just pose before the camera. I collect in my notebook all that wonderful music, it is an invaluable treasure, at least for me. The 80s will continue to live in our hearts, I'm sure of that. Thank you for sharing Icehouse. Greetings from the end of the world.

This song never get old! The 80's were the best especially for the music!

Aaahhh, the 80’s. One of a kind and THE best decade ever! Probably the best years of my life.

2021. And I'm still here listening to this amazing song! Who else is with me? 🎶

To be young, so happy and free-spirited in the 80s... that is the spirit of Electric Blue!

One of the greatest mysteries of 80s music. Whatever happened to Icehouse. A couple of hits then poof gone, vanished.

2023 and I’m still playing this. My mullet has grown naturally from so many listens to this killer tune.

I love how the happiest guy in the band is the drummer!

I miss the 80's.... this is real music,,, real talent,,, bands that were teams , not dance clubs....

HIS VOICE IS LIKE HEAVEN!!! NEVER WOULD GET TIRED OF IT

My wife told me she heard this song in the supermarket the other day and almost started crying.

I like how the sax guy is just chilling till he comes in and steals it all

Im stuck in the 80,s and bloody 💜 it! Music of today will never ever come close to the 80's!!

Hell yeah some of the best music and bands ever came out of of this era its a crying shame that the young generation of today wont get to hear and appreciate a special kind of music that was made by these generations of bands

Loved and love timeless 80s music. My favorite of theirs was always "No Promises", but this one was and still is a great song that we enjoyed, listened to and it was more commercialized and recall hearing it on the radio in the 80s a lot more than their other songs, so this is a great song and if I am not mistaken, even made it into the movie or two. Great song and great musical era.

80s music was saxy. The saxophone used so much back then really made so many songs epic. Men & women having fantastic hair also helped.

I want my mullet back. Hell, I want my HAIR back!

This was and still is one of my all time favorite songs

Me. I fell in love to this song with my gorgeous guy. He died 2 years later. I still fall apart when I hear this song.♥️ I still love you, Dale Hunter and I always will.

The Eighties the Best Decade Ever

When a time machine is invented, and I am able to go back to the '80s, I want this song playing when I arrive.

Awe… that 80’s music was so great and distinctive. Great to dance to and it had a catchy tune. Love Iva Davies beautiful smooth voice and he is very handsome as well. Best time machine we have to date.

My son and his wife bought me tickets for simple minds in Adelaide next February - absolutely delighted that these fellas are on the bill. I never thought I'd hear Belfast Child and Great Southern land on the same night, what an honour.

Such an underrated song, definitely one of my 80's favorites

Perfect 80’s song. Does everything you need it to without trying to do too much.

At the end of the saxophone solo you can see his breath coming out of the sax into the cold night air and it looks awesome!

My mother and father danced to this song every night in my youth. They passed away a day apart from each other. They left me alone, but I listen to this song and I feel them close to me again

This is back when music was magical

No decade will ever top the 80's!!!

I graduated in 1985. The eighties definitely had the best music. And MTV actually played real music videos like the buggles and the bangles

The 80s were the best decade ever im still listening to the 80s music what can I say I love the 80s decade of music I'm a die hard fan of the 80s music
