Oh My God...I miss the 1980s so much!!!

Just shut up..! Please let me talk..!!!

electrify these nuts

@@nadiabrstak5646 Same anything but now.

Absolutely

When it comes to music and TV, the 1970s were way better!

Best decade in the time line of this creation and universe.

​@@executivedecision6141nah bruh

@@executivedecision6141 It was a different time, but by far not better! I lived in both times. The 80's was just a different creature all together, sadly something we will NEVER see again. But at least were there and lived in the magic.

The opera scene is so empowering! I love seeing her fight back!

Control freaks can be such a nightmare.

Love Aimee

The true face of a Narcissistic partner.

I dont like it its not nice Men who are jealous of womens talent really hurts. i was a singer songwriter and two at least of my boyfriends were jealous 😢❤️

'85 was a great year

1985 was a big economic recession time period.

Summer of 85 I stayed inside and watched MTV 24/7.

@@markconnelly1806 Actually it wasn't! Reagan had won a second term the US was beginning to come out of the recession of the late 70's. I remember my parents business was booming and things were finally good for them. 85 was a great year!

bigreed43, I actually. Just turned 43. Anyway, I couldn't agree more with your advice. I can't stress enough just to sit back and enjoy the ride. Life just speeds up the older you get!!! God bless!

shhh hush hush.. forever young my friend. dont let the old man in.

I hear You!! I'm 52,what happened?🤪😅Love the memories,Take Care!!

Me too.

Turned 58 yesterday.

after 30 it flies by christmas again, already .

It does indeed, being the other woman and in love

totally agree

Sooo, he buys her ear rings which she doesn't appreciated, doesn't like it when she stays out with a group of guys late and doesn't tell him, he takes her to out all the time, she gets funky haircuts without even telling him, doesn't put out enough or at all. No wonder he is a dick.

Yes he did!

Cool guy

Hush hush keep it down

Me

Me too Iconic ❤❤❤

Me from USA

Me! 80’s party!🎉😂

Me from Taiwan. Good song lasts 4ever.

The 80s were the last of the great music decades. Great music started around 1965.

You better believe it !!!

I'd like to include the 90's. The 80's and the 90's were the last twenty years of life before CGI and the Internet ruined everything.

@@bobbydarker1959 I agree 💯

Took me 4 and a half

If I could ❤ these comments a million times I would.

Good for you

YES...Getting out is challenging but worth the effort. Glad you made it!

Currently in a situation where I'm constantly being told to shut up. Going on 25 yrs now. Shit gets old

Replace the "he" with a "she". That's how it was originally written. Too risqué at the time, though.

My favorite line: "'Cause I know--oh--the trouble I'll get." There's something about that line that gets to me. It's so--knowing.

I don’t know about all that.

Aimee*

So Alanis Morrisette listened to this song AND wrote her songs, yes.

Had no idea he died so long ago. Never know what actors private lives are like...

Oh! So that's not a super young Julian McMahon from nip/tuck? I stand corrected 😮

It is.

Two words: Aimee Mann.

Seriously because I love this song and listened to it a million times and just realized that the man in this video is my boyfriend. My boyfriend and I have been together for 10 years but he's the type of man who doesn't show much emotion at all. Like he sees emotion as weakness. When I asked him for a little bit more emotion like maybe telling me I love you before I have to tell him would be great but he acts like I'm crazy and tells me obviously he loves me. Lol it's called stop acting so tough because I know you're not but hey, people are different. I know he enjoys the I love yous and you're the best thing that's ever happened to mes he gets from me.

@@gocowboys51411 so,,,,, he doesn't tell you that he loves you but he must SHOW it in other ways. Taking care of you, taking you out, ect.......

@@roadglidered oh yes he does and I know he loves me for sure it's just nice to hear it don't you think? I know most men aren't the emotional type and I don't need it but it would be nice to hear. I'm a disabled woman with epilepsy which I developed a few years into our relationship and he has been here to take care of me and do everything I need him to do. I just struggle with my emotions having to depend on him as well as my father to take me to work and home and to go grab a coffee if I want one... I always feel like neither of them want to do any of that for me and it's almost like he feels bad for me that's why he stays. In reality I know he wouldn't stay if he didn't want to be here because he's not dependent like me but it gets in my head sometimes when I don't get smiles and I love yous out of the blue because I know he's not thinking about it or he would be happy to say it especially with my low self-esteem... I guess I'm just too needy but I'd be a lot less stressed knowing that my boyfriend is thinking of me and how much he loves me... He just doesn't think about loving me as much as I think about him not loving me.... If that makes sense 😂

2023 people suck

Exactly 💯

2043: wow, this is a great song...😊

3023: Wow, this is a great song!

@@SabrinaMejo78that does happen too often…

SHE is incredible...heard it on the way home from work today...sings her heart out....had to come back here and watch this video again!

Great song, damn right!

This song not only holds up, but the video still holds up, because no record company is producing anything as creative as the videos done in the 80's. The acting and the vignette perfectly matches this song, the way the dancing in Michael Jackson videos matched his songs.

Yes! Hi. Nice to see you all here!! Omg?

@@Apophis-lw6bz they won't let us sing like this anymore. Alot of people are turning to frequencies. Instead. 333 mghz

Same im like 15 and been hearing these 80s on gta 4 since i was 8

16 and literally the radio showed this song, and I wanted to listen to it more.

Michael O fear not, they won't, we like them didn't as they don't give a shit about the past. Great song none the less, we know, don't ask them to be us, are you your parents? No, so why would youth today be also?

I do. I love this old music

So is this song about abuse, or a young woman who's in love with a married man?

Oh. Boy... victim 😊

@@zandorvorkov986 It is about abuse. Everything that man is doing is classic abuse.

@@ekramer2478 In the video, I guess, but she's seeing 2 guys also. I googled the song meaning and it's clear as mud.

@@zandorvorkov986 Also googled it. No, she isn't. It was originally from a male perspective and about a friend. It morphed over time and is indeed about abuse, and was frankly very important to that aspect, and the identity in the end of being abused. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voices_Carry

🌼🌼

It was the BEST time to be alive in the entire 20th Century. Nothing even comes close. The 50's maybe but I wasn't around then.

You are one of the lucky ones Ron to have lived in the Golden Age of music buddy. I feel sorry for the youth and the music of today. Music was about the process of elimination in those days. You had to be outstanding and super talented just to get a shot. The cream always floated to the top. Seems like anyone can (and does) put out crap on the radio. Most of the bubble gum music today lacks the quality of music from the Golden Age. Count your blessings Ron. Stay blessed.

The 80s were morning in America 🥰🥰🥰 So I hear... i was born in '90

YES I AM 53 AND I AGREE WITH YOU !!!!! BEST TIME OF MY LIFE GROWING UP !!!!!! THE 80'S WERE MY BEST YEARS OF MY LIFE .......

I used to play along with this song 20 years ago and never saw the video until recently. After seeing the video the phrase at the very end "I wish, he would, let me talk." is even more crushing. Yes, stand up!

NO... 70s were the best.

Same

yes some songs were great!

Hi I recommend an indie song and album called 'Looking Into The Mirror' by Robert Nix

Oh, hush now, shut up, voices carry :-)

I agree completely With You

I have actually tried to find this song forever now because the only thing I had to work with was the chorus lyrics which were not what I thought they were.

@@megafarad4933 Happy to hear your search is over, been there done that myself on trying to track down a song.

Me to!

OH YEAH,, I always liked the vocal n the instrumentals are excellent but I never knew exactly what the tune was about.. seeing this video,, I know EXACTLY why the song seemed so edgy,, n agree 101% the ending is SO powerful imo I HAVE to watch her (dramatically) give the guy what he hates the most: public attention,, of the HIGHLY embarrassing variety... and the hairstyle,, he says what's this, the "new image" n I'd say "yeah,, it's the "POST-YOU" image"...

Same!!

I was army. I was glad when my left my dad.

Well said!

U r so right. There's got to b an especially hot place in hell for men that puts hands on a woman. FACT

There are also women who are narcissistic and physically abusive.

True, the song allows her to triumph over the bastard through the force of great singing and an incredible song to sing. How life should always be…❤️

Definitely spot on 100

Nailed it!

What does Chat GPT have to do with it?

@@lunarfriday I had just started tinkering with ChatGPT and was impressed by its ability to describe what this song is about plus many other things.

Ohhh gave me chills This lady could sang…I felt her emotions

Yeah. Goosebumps completely. Lyrically brilliant and the melody is soaring when it hits that chorus. Well crafted art.

Yeah, that scene was what I remember most about the video. In fact, it's kind of funny the things you remember years later. I'll never forget the sight of the tuxedoed guy sitting immediately in front of Aimee Mann. He was just out for a night at the opera and he gets a ringside seat to this drama.

Yes, I always get shivers, terrific scene! Kind of rude to whoever was supposed to be performing though. But I like how everyone is at first like "wtf" and "come on lady, we're trying to watch fucking Aida or something" but then start turning as she ramps it up and upstages those sad sacks they paid good money to see. Even beard man scarf man was enraptured at the end!

Yea and it was secret filmed,, him and her the only two in the audience that knew.....

Women hate white knights.

I agree,the guy is a scumbag.I'd raily for the woman.

Think you’re reading a little too much into this song/scene.

some of the theatre shows I go to even nowadays, everyone just sits and watches the orchestra and noone applauds, but I always buy a couple of single flowers before going there, and when I appreciate a song I will throw them from the balconey and stand and applaud... and more often than not I'm invited by an usher to meet with some of them at the end to go behind stage after and we get glasses of wine and get to talk to some of them :)

Good things happen when enough people decide they must make them happen. Events like Brexit and Trump's election are the beginnings of a potential great unification of the freedom-loving West, although the real battle is only just beginning because its enemies are desperate to nip that restoration to factory settings in the bud.

Aww. Nostalgia-it hits hard especially during pandemics.

I got married in 1982 & had my son in 1983. I have great memories from that time. The best music in the 80's!

Well said

I don't agree. I was a child in the 70s when the 50s were made into nostalgia. Adults who lived then told the 50s were nasty, dull, and ordinary. I felt the same way about the 80s and I chuckle when people who were not adults try to make nostalgia out of the 80s.

Sorry for you Mom Sir. Sure hope the Lord Bless and keep her for having to live through that.

Having a thick skin and realistic attitude includes the realization that at any given moment, 70-90% of people in a specific issue are clueless morons, total idiots who speak from empty minds instead of thinking with empathy and researched knowledge LoL. Doesn't mean the same people are idiots in all things or don't eventually mature or become more enlightened as time goes on. After all life and experience is a process, not a stand alone static thing. Also some people don't like other people and it is subjective so there is that. The important thing is don't let others (thick skin) delegate your life and attitude, only you. This was a good mini movie and the guy helped make it playing his character's role so well (cold and demeaning, I also felt a brutal undertone of violence just under the surface in his portrayal) that it made this mini movie pogniant and is remembered. Kevin Joseph Gallery given name (actually a better stage name ironically than the one he used IMO), passed at 33 from AIDS.

Its youtube comments...the absolute lowest form of social media pontificating

Some people just can't separate characters from the actors. Kudos to him for making the character so punch-in-the-face worthy.

I know this is an old comment, but you really should check out the live version of this song that's available here on YT. It was recorded at the band's very 1st performance in NYC, & everything sounded fabulous.

..At 4:09 ! 🤘😀👍 🏆

R U OK?

my granddaughter loves the music of the 80's. amazing that the new generations have found music like this.

When I was coming of age I was listening to all the hits from 60s 70s & 80s...I was a 90s child and millennial teen.

80s music has that affect on young folks. My son listens to it too

Ooogabooga AHHH

God bless you for that, I had heavy drinking fighting parents too, it isn't pretty for sure.

Remind me of movie 'Legend of Billie Jean' 😉1 of my favorite movies nda 80's Helen&Christian Slater.

Perversely those that want to control You are attracted to.

Stop going after the bad boy Chads. Find a nice guy. Problem is the most woman find a nice guy as weak and predictable. Many of you say u want a nice guy. Yet u are attracted the bad boy. He is unpredictable and a challenge. Nice guys are not. I once had a woman who said that she liked that I was honest and straight forward. Then went on and said you need to be more mysterious. Another said you are genuinely a nice guy. She said she didnt know how to handle me. I said dont worry about trying to control and handle me. Just go with the flow. Glad u got out of ur bad relationship. Just learn from your mistake and dont get into a relationship like that again. Dont be like my neighbor. She is very attractive. 40 year old single mother now. Within a week of moving in to other side of duplex from me. Her bad boy tattooed bf tried to strangle her to death. Police had to kick down the door. But hey lets defund police right? Lucky police there. Cause I would have had to put the loser out of his misery. SO he gets arrested. She takes him back. Then police here over and over again. Ultimately she used a knife on him. She pounded on my door covered in blood. Turns out this guy served 6 to 12 yrs in jail for trying to stab 2 ppl to death. When i found this out. I barricaded my doors and made sure i had my berretta with me at all times. Shotgun loaded too. So he was to serve min of 2 yrs for trying to strangle her. He gets a yr. Then serves 2 months. Back out. 2 more crimes. In and out of jail. I hear her thru wall talking to him on speaker phn. SHe talks super loud. She says she loves him. Also is seeing other bad boy types. SMH!!! This is the typical woman who would look past a nice sweet guy like me, esp in her 20s. She is the one who kicks us in the balls. As of now. She has spoken to me perhaps 2 or 3 times in past year. She doesnt give me the time of day. She wouldnt know a good guy if she landed next to one. Dont be this woman!!!!!

Only this song is not about an abusive relationship.. its about a lesbian relationship where one of them is bi and has a boyfriend... from the perspective of the lesbian. The words and theme of the song were changed at the record company's request..

I so miss 1980s

@Michael Foley. I agree wholeheartedly. I was ridiculously fortunate to experience Ms. Mann, “back in the day”, meaning 1985/1986+. One night, as I was leaving Providence College, Aimee Mann was singing her heart out on this brilliant song of hers. I had seen her in Cambridge and Somerville, MA. However, walking across campus alone with my thoughts, then unexpectedly experiencing her power and magic, was a great moment in my life. Living in North Falmouth, Cape Cod, circa 1986,Voices Carry was the soundtrack of being carefree and 20 years old. Long live Aimee Mann. KT
