God bless the 1980's for it's music, culture, movies, TV and fashion. Every aspect of the 80s was gold, apart from the cold war .

Dear Mr. Vernon: We accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it was we did wrong, but we think you’re crazy to make us write an essay telling you who we think we are. You see us as you want to see us… In the simplest terms and the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of us is a brain… …and an athlete… …and a basket case… …a princess… …and a criminal. Does that answer your question? Sincerely yours, the Breakfast Club.

This is astonishing. For 4 minutes and 31 seconds, I forgot my cruel world.

I remember watching this film (The Dream is Alive) in IMAX at the Air and Space Museum in Washington DC in the mid-80s. The Simple Minds track is perfectly paired with clips from the film here. The whole thing puts a big nostalgic grin on my face. Love it! The 1980s were a truly special time, and I'm glad to have been part of it. I give this a "Totally awesome!"

I've always loved Mick McNeil's keyboard work on this track. The instrumental highlights it even more for me.

I was so stressed but this just made me so happy, relaxed and grateful? Maybe it's the combination of 80's amazing synth pop and realizing how small me and my problems are compared to this whole world... This was so nice

The video is from an IMAX film, The Dream is Alive, about the Space Shuttle program. It was produced with the full cooperation of NASA. The footage was shot with IMAX 65mm/15 perf cameras by the Astronauts themselves. The IMAX frame is the largest camera frame available - roughly nine times the size of a 35mm frame. Imagine this footage on a full-size IMAX screen of 8 storeys! Great use of Simple Minds' iconic 80s track.

I accept the fact this video has to be put on here Sincerely yours, Someone who loves The Breakfast Club

simply one of the best songs 👌🏼😌

Hey, hey, hey, hey Ooh woh Won't you come see about me? I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby Tell me your troubles and doubts Giving me everything inside and out and Love's strange so real in the dark Think of the tender things that we were working on Slow change may pull us apart When the light gets into your heart, baby Don't you, forget about me Don't, don't, don't, don't Don't you, forget about me Will you stand above me? Look my way, never love me Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling Down, down, down Will you recognize me? Call my name or walk on by Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling Down, down, down, down Hey, hey, hey, hey Ooh woh Don't you try and pretend It's my feeling we'll win in the end I won't harm you or touch your defenses Vanity and security Don't you forget about me I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby Going to take you apart I'll put us back together at heart, baby Don't you, forget about me Don't, don't, don't, don't Don't you, forget about me As you walk on by Will you call my name? As you walk on by Will you call my name? When you walk away Or will you walk away? Will you walk on by? Come on, call my name Will you call my name? I say (Lala la la lala la la) Will you call my name? As you walk on by

0:53 was timed perfectly, whether intentionally or not; it was genius! Wonderful video! Thank you!

This version is so "on". The sound is so powerful and the melody is floating! Beautiful work!

Keeping this vibe alive in 2024 🤘

Class of 86'! I remember it all

Ah! Les Simple minds !! Quel bonheur !! Always in my heart.

I purposely looked for the instrumental version of this song, and let me tell you, brother: it doesn't disappoint one bit! God, this is beautiful. This just gave me a nice calm enjoyable ending to a very trying night. Thank you for that, from the bottom of my heart.

Simplemente espectacular, la sincronización de la música y la perfecccion de un viaje espacial , definitivamente la ciencia y la tecnología al servicio de la humanidad resulta más que sorprendente...

This version is not from this world ♥️ From 1:10min♥️♥️♥️ Absolutely awesome, not only for drummers like me

This video combined two things I really love! This great instrumental and astronomy! That's why I love this video so much

Great video! Amazing how you synched up ignition of both the main engines and boosters to the beat. Well done!

Isaiah 51:12-13 "I, even I, am he who comforts you. Who are you that you fear mere mortals, human beings who are but grass, that you forget the Lord your Maker, who stretches out the heavens and who lays the foundations of the earth..."

Amo la canción y amo este video. gracias totales..

holy shit i dont know why but this is one of the best videos i ever saw on youtube. its simply outstanding

You are the best ! Long live to the 80s music.

Very very beautiful !!!!!

Stunning , mind blowing..Out Universe is a wonderous place.. And due to our technological advancements , we're regularly sending humans into low , near space orbit on 30-60 days missions. I was in an ER in the Texas Medical Center several years ago (everything healed). The ER director is a former space shuttle astronaut. A very smart, kind, down to Earth man. We only take the best & the brightest in the US Space Shuttle program. I will go into space when rides come up on offer...One of my bucket list Top Tens!!!

Why does this make me tear up? Well done ;) :)

What a beautiful track, this makes me feel extremely nostalgic for the 1980s, however, I wasn't born during that time. Go figure. This is still a great and timeless classic!

Salute the 80's for its music and fashion

QUE Banda Maravilhosa 🤠😁🤗🤩😀🏃‍♀️

The world seems to be falling apart around us, but when you listen and watch this you are reminded humans can be pretty darn cool.

One awesome video I love this song it go great with the video

Fantastico, video maravilhoso , simplesmente fenomenal !!!

So powerful, playing it daily now..Inspiring as if it was yesterday GO NASA! I LOVE this video! From Ignition a slight rocking back & forth arm detachment then lift off...Discovery rolls & climbs & begins her ascent to on highway 49 on a Stellar Monday commute to Orbit. Hero's them all every NASA astronaut that has climbed into a shuttle snapped his & or her spurs & strapped in for the ride up stairs there isn't anything greater in the World.. No experience can match up to the exhilaration from a shuttle ride on up to space to the ISS then begin the greatest journey Orbiting the Earth from a vantage point you won't get anywhere else. Opening the payload doors & looking down onto such a beautiful sight, the greatest ever!!..DeepBlue stuff my friends & we remember those who have given their lives in the pursuit of science, We remember you Challenger & Discovery to those 14 brave astronauts. YES THE DREAM IS ALIVE. STILL TO THIS DAY.. NASA WE SALUTE YOU!! THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU DO!

I always really like that bit that starts 1:10 that sounds like singing, it's dramatic enough already, but then combined with that distant shot of shuttle lifting off is mind blowing, this song should be used in a space film. At the opening with the waves is very 80's.

I really like the instrumental.

Brilliantly arranged. Fantastic orchestration. Love it. Thanks

Nice background scenery that relates to the music. NASA LOL

Amazing shuttle footage! Great song by the way too....

The vast emptiness of space is fascinating and terrifying at the same time. It feels like it goes on forever...

Maybe I'm over analyzing too much but it seems like this song is amazingly synchronized with certain shots throughout the video; eg as helicopter in the opening turns left and climbs there's a building up of sound and the crescendo continues to increase as the shuttle explodes off the launch pad. If you pay very close attention to the downbeats they're precisely timed with a lot of things. Oh well, if it's just me that's fine because I've watched it many times! Further more I've been to Cape Canaveral & The Kennedy Space Center. Good Video!! 👍

Very beautiful love it and love them to

BEST, ALWAYS THE BEST OF TIMLESS MUSIC

Songs to describe the 80s:

Wonderful! 🧞‍♂️💙🦋💎

Thank you all.

Música a mano y creatividad ,sonido y elegancia y muchas horas de estudio y muchas prácticas mucha alma en la interpretación y sin ordenador ni autotune

Best instrumental version

What a fantastic instrumental. And the video is superb....

In the beginning of The Breakfast Club, they riff off this song a little in an instrumental way, and it's my favorite part of the soundtrack. Thanks for posting this, it's, in some ways, as powerful as the lyrical version, and the video addition is excellent.

Ficou sesacional muito muito lindo

My Uncle Worked for NASA and my Father and I got VIP Tickets TO SEE The 🚀🚀🚀🚀Space Shuttle go Up ! 😱😱😱😱WOW It was something I’LL never Forget !

Excellent video...great editing and the perfect song to go with it.

Hey, hey, hey, hey Ohhh... Won't you come see about me? I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby Tell me your troubles and doubts Giving me everything inside and out and Love's strange so real in the dark Think of the tender things that we were working on Slow change may pull us apart When the light gets into your heart, baby Don't you forget about me Don't don't don't don't Don't you forget about me Will you stand above me?
