Thompson Twins The Gap Comments
This is 1 of the best albums of the 80's!!!
I know through the decades every teenager thinks theirs was the best.... but I just can't imagine teenies from 2010's could have a millionth of the fun, love and fecking great music as we had in the 80s.
'84 forever!!!
احلى ذكريات الطفوله هذه الاغنيه عشق 😘😍
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TB9tt2cntRw&t=76s The Egyptian version
thank you WLIR NY .. I'M PRETTY SURE THIS IS THE FIRST SONG I EVER HEARD ON THE STATION.. BACK WHEN I WAS 15... NOW I HAVE MY OWN SHOW.. WAXX TRAXX TO THE MAXX ON WUSB.FM NY .. JOIN MY FB PAGE . THANKS !! ( CLAP . CLAP . CLAP !)
Birmingham NEC boxing day, 1985 thomson twins live they were awesome. They were on a pyramd singinging fhis one.. Love it
This is the best song from that excellent album turns me back in the sweet summertime of 1984.What Amazing seasons!!!!
When this song was first played in the US, the yanks werent so 'peachy'..it sounded too Middle Eastern for them...but with time they came to like like it though it wasnt as popular s their other songs. Later, Aladdin came out and the rest was history...lol
BanderSnatch
Bandersnatch?
vim pela referência em Black Mirror
This song was a warning about the nasties in that country that have been trying to take over since their arrival. And l assume that is why the person below asks if the UK understands now!
Whoo! This was so cool to hear again! Thank you for sharing! I haven't heard this in about 30 years I'd say :O
Phanominal tunes ahead of their time
The Thompsons were at the very top of their game wth this title track of the best album of 1984. Sadly their rise was as rapid as their decline in record sales. They should have been huge for years....
I remember seeing How Leeway in Manhattan Beach CA. I blocked his car from pulling out as I was singing "passion planet" way too funny!
Oh to return to the Exchange hotel on Oxford St Sydney in 85, Billy Idol hair dancing on the small elevated dance floor and podium and a sea of New Romantic, Goth, Rockabilly, Punks, Drag queens etc etc we had an amazing underground scene all but gone in 2018 :-(
Wish I was born in this decade. MUCH better music
One of the best songs of 1984 hands down!
Better than the shit of today. Take me back please
nice tabla lick !!
my first acid trip
AMO ESTOSAS BELLAS CANCIONES!!!... LINDOS TIEMPOS
Very nice song from TT's.
Alot of people missed the point of this song.
Do you get it now UK?
I get it. They knew about those nasty people over their who had evil plans. But could not be to blunt. And yes it has been the plan by them before and during the arrival of every mosque built in any country. This song was a warning.
entered Billboard Nov 10, 1984 ..reached #69
'80's music -- you will always be my guilty pleasure.
ımmortal song...too amazing
the best tunes by the twins is their last 2 albums. big trash and queer. check it out.
Forever sad that Spotify only has two songs by the T Twins. I'll punch 'em.
did you punch them? i couldnt find the fuckers. Hope you did
Proves what that shit site knows about music.... I bet it has every track by talentless idiots like Jay Z or Beyonce. ...
I was able to play this song's album at work through Spotify, but yes Spotify sucks.
immortal single :-)
I remember being a teenager, listening to this album and dreaming about what life had in store. Now about to hit 50, its interesting to be on the other side of that question
The beggar re n the main streets nowadays
1984 wow i remember buying this album when it came out couldnt wait to get home n blast it through the house lol eeeeeee i wudnt dream of doing that now. .....THINK OF THE NEIGHBOURS!😉 i would of been 17! ufffffffff i feel old
TheOnecanJAN i remember that but I was barely out of elementary school!
This original version is fantastic
Cheeky 303 doing the acid bassline!
B E A U T I F U L to hear again after all these years. Takes me back to the Spring of '84!!! Def their best album.
The Cold War was certainly good for music.
The threat of annihilation seems to bring out the best in us.
This song wasn't inspired by the cold war though?
Luv it❤️
I hear this song amongst their other hits and It brings me back to a time where if I could snap my fingers to be in the moment again back in time it would be awesome ! Fun times in the 80's there was nothin better 😁
I hear you bro. I turned 54 and I want to go back NOW.
I like the Thompson Twins, however this is my favorite song of theirs. Cool alternative music. Smoke a blunt, kick back and enjoy! 😊
The Thompson Twins were the best musicans in the 1980s and it was fun to hear their music.
i am an 80's child
I'm a sixties child, but please take me back to the eighties, as life is no good anymore.
I really like the instrumental groove ...
Great song!! the good old 80's Awesome!!
Songs were stories back in the best decade... ever
A good decade. But nothing like the 70's.
Great song.
have you got sister of mercy please
I was expecting to find a lead to a series of science fiction novels. But this really cheered me up. We werre breakdancing to this in 1984.
1st comment of 2015!!!!!!
+Trevin Harris A good comment, straight to the point, are you in advertising?
great song, love the sound, 30 years of its time
I love every song this group EVER released.
What an excellent mix from top-notch musicians.
Dang! Begging for attention...
EAST is EAST! WEST is WEST! Keep moving on to the GAP!
Thompson Twins had loads of brilliant songs but this one tops the lot for me
I agree! I love this song and all the different exotic sounds in it. I actually just discovered it (sorta by accident) and I'm glad I did!!
Me, too - thought they were quite underrated.
Alley Keosheyan Back in the day wherever they played their shows are usually sold out they had a lot of great songs that still sound good now
Neil Rooney Love on your side doctor doctor hold me know all those are all great songs too Along with many of their songs
I will for ever have love for the Thomson twins
There are so many great sonic elements blending into this song... great achievement from the Twins!!! =)
We grew old with them my favorite song and singer
Love this song! :)
I love this!!!
This was released as a single? OMG in what country?
This song is unbelievably good!
Alannah <3
Aaahhhhhhh those 80s... wonderful memories... Thank u Prince and Thompson Twins 4 their music!!!!
ALANA NOT HANNAH !!!
Impressive stuff.
Two different color on the map?
fuck victory gymnastics
U r right tis album is the bomb!!!!!
Classic!! My favorite song! I played this cosset tape to death!
sorry for not respoinding sooner..this is NOT spam..it would be on my personal channel. The unknown song and artist of the song was played on SFstation the Quake back in 1982/83 along side this song and Yes- leave it. You can search teh string quake unknown song or go to my channel it is in there, any help is appreciated it is a pretty friggin cool song very progressive..
Loved The Quake!
Know what I miss? Actually hearing this and all the great stuff from the 80's on VH1; Yeah, I know, they got that 'Totally 80's' thing going on now, but it's just not the same as when they were dedicated to playing music 24/7. And VH1 was INFINITELY better than MTV, because MTV had already degenerated into an almost exclusively rap and hip hop format at that point...and I just couldn't get behind that crap.
My first concert! They were amazing!
I love these guys! I need help with a song if anyone can please view the unknown song video and see if y'all know it or not? Myself and many other dj's have been trying to find this for over nine years. I was recorded by me off the quake around 1982-83ish and the gap came out shortly after. Any help would be appreciated! thx!
@fery2 but was it a 12"??? Id be interested in that as well...
Once when I worked in midtown Manhattan I would play this on my walkman whilst crossing Fifth Avenue as my lunchtime ritual.
They performed this on SNL when it was still watchable.
@Myworld1916 *India* ? That's a bit odd. This song uses *Middle Eastern* music, and *Aladdin* is Middle Eastern as well, not *Indian*
@Pinballpete007 i loved the 80's, grad 83! hollar! anyways i like rap when it first came out, curtis blow, sugar hill gang, etc...rap now..sorry...too vulgar 4 me and i'm a grown woman if i had kids it would not come into my house. like i said went to all black school but mtv opened my eyes to different kinds of music which i STILL love today especially UK, Germany, anyting overseas really. :)
i really wish i was born in the 80's when depeche mode and the thompson twins came out..........but nooooo i was born in the 90's and now i have to deal with the stupid shit songs out now, what do i have to look forward to when i get older to relive my teens? stupid ass lil wayne and transvestite lady gaga, i HATE the music out now
is it just me or is 80's music so much more well produced.
@bluejeckett I totally agree! I love listening to 80's music because it's when I was a teen. However, each decade has its merits. I love a lot of modern music as well as music from the 50's and 60's and everything in between. Great comment on your part!
it'll be a sad day when this song is used to promote the vile clothing store chain, please dont sell-out this song
@30301500 can i join you? the more the merrier
is very similar to arcadia of duranduran the voice of him is very similar to simon lebon
Is it just me or is this track more relavent now more than ever? It was about the Soviet Empire, but listen to the lyrics. Even the eastern melody fits..
3 people live in the North and the South
@bottletree33
Her name is Allanah Currie (Curry) unsure of spellilng right now but it's def Allanah not Hannah
They used to call this music "new wave" back in the day. Anyone listen to WLIR 92.7 FM Garden City Long Island during the 80's? I was into metal back in those days but I secretly indulged in a little WLIR from time to time....at least I knew who The Smiths were in '84 ;)
tommybass40 - I was living and working in Norwalk Connecticut in the early 80s and we could get WLIR there. It was such an excellent radio station in those days. There will never be another decade as excellent as the 80s. I was stuck listening to drab music of 70s from my older brother’s record collection until the 80s came along and the explosion of new wave music. Finally something that I could call my own. The music of today is shit. There’s nothing that can compare to that era.
me too, love the gap as a single
@bottletree33
Well, Into the Gap was released as a single in 1984, but only in US, Germany, other European countries, but not in the UK. You can check it in discogs.
@AngryPenguin27 They play this song at your job? Awesome. Where do you work?
Gosh there are so cool=]
Wish i lived in the 80'd i was in 1990 should have been at least ten years earlier lol
@AngryPenguin27 Why? O.o
i had a video game for my zx spectrum !!! on a turntable floppy disc
@Pinballpete007
Your youth alive on my channel with ´80´s music!!!!!
Thanks....
East is east *clap clap clap clap*
West is west *clap clap clap clap*
Thompson Twins always have addictive and catchy lyrics lol
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii hey! love it!
nothing but perfect
