    ------------------
    Tech Noir
    Feel the breeze, I feel alive
    Will you come to away with me
    You’ll be my focus
    Could this be, could this be the highway
    Before you save me
    Just wait your turn, look at me now
    Steady as we burn
    It was all for love
    Just move yourself, drop it back down
    And push it out in front
    Keep your heart out on the road
    Will you come to Tech Noir with me
    You’ll be my focus
    Could this be, could this be the highway
    Before you save me
    Just wait your turn, look at me now
    Steady as we burn
    It was all for love
    Just move yourself, drop it back down
    And push it out in front
    Guided by voices, it’s you and me
    Before you save me
    Just wait your turn, look at me now
    Steady as we burn
    It was all for love
    Just move yourself, drop it back down
    And push it out in front

    I lost my older brother to depression and suicide about a month ago now. World's been pretty messed up since. This was the last song he ever shared with me. It hurts a lot, but listening to it and watching the video just puts me back in a place where I can feel his presence as we vibe and watch a lot of these old movies. Wonderful song, video and band. Thank you for this gift.
    (EDIT) Its been over two years since I listened to this song for the first time and made this comment. A lot of life has happened in the interim. I find myself is better straits than I was back then. I've grown closer to friends and to my surviving siblings and learned more of myself and what I want out of this life and world. Still through all of the trials and successes since then, this song and GUNSHIP have remained a place of comfort to me. I am ever grateful for the stories they share.
    To all those who have replied, no matter your intent or thought or belief, I appreciate the outpouring and expression of humanity and connection. To reply to any one in particular I'd feel the need to reply to all, so forgive me my laziness in grouping it all here instead. Thank you for making the world a little bit smaller and strangers a little bit closer. I ask that you choose to live your lives with compassion and kindness, to both yourself and to others when you're able so as to bring more beauty into your life. Tell someone you love them today. Tell yourself that you are loved. The world can be full of so much pain and tragedy, but beauty abounds throughout as well. Appreciate it when you're able. Stay rad and look out for one another.

    I just now noticed: when the hero grabs the three VHS tapes before jumping into the movie, he grabs Rocky, He-Man and Escape from New York… but someone had put Care Bears inside the Escape from New York box, which is why he was bewildered when he transformed into the care bear later instead of Snake Plisken.

    • @christopherd1356
      @christopherd1356 Před 7 lety +18

      I'd actually say it sound MORE 80s than 80s bands. TV shows and movies didn't have the connections to pop or rock bands, so most all TV dramas would hire one guy (on coke 😊) with a synth to do soundtracks. Miami Vice was the first exception to that. So I think you miss the mark. This is 80 TV music, not radio music.

GI Joe, Lazer Tag, and the cartoons that went with them. It was really the last Era where you could get a way with crazy shit, without someone calling the police on you, or turning your parents into CPS.

      @Drakilicious I totally get what you are saying. Just like Socrates quote and how every generation thinks the next is going down hill but I think the internet is the big game changer here. Historically technological advances have never moved so fast. Yes, the telephone replaced the telegraph, the car replaced the horse and buggy, tv replaced the radio but those changes were nothing compared to the sociological changes the advancements in computers, the internet and now social media have not only brought to our society but the world as a whole. Kids today don't even know what an encyclopedia is (I know because I'm a teacher) and they retain less information than ever before because everything is stored on their phones or computer drives. They interact socially less and we are seeing a rise in anti-social behavior across large populations of young adults and teens. This isn't me talking, this is sociological research. Ok, I may have rambled a little, but the point is before everyone was connected to everyone else with a push of a button and before screens became the main way people communicated, things were a lot different and for a great many people, better. Statistically Icelanders are some of the happiest, healthiest people on the planet. In studies they contribute a great deal of their happiness to community and local gathering of people....thats something the internet has a tendency to circumvent. Sorry, I research this stuff and I just find it interesting. I tend to get carried away. :)

    Bout a year ago I think, I called up my local University college radio in Southern California and requested this song. They dug it up online and played it over the air waves during rush hour, when people where getting off work.
    It just made me happy to know this retro artist was played over old fashioned radio. 😎📻

      The most satisfying music to me has tension in it, where rhythm and melody are pushing and pulling each other. Synthwave is FULL of tension and I can't get enough. Bands are pushing the boundaries and subsets are forming. Like Dark, Goth, and regular Synthwave.

He opened up my world to Gunship and for that I'm forever grateful to him.

    I don't know what to say besides, you did a fantastic job! I'm just floored that you chose this. I'm 49 in just another couple months. And I'm seeing this lovely young person interested in such an obscure band and their music, from my youth. I don't know exactly why, but it makes me tear up and feel like weeping. I don't know if it's joy because of your playing, or if it's in mourning for my lost youth. Please carry on with your interests, your enthusiasm, your delight in these things that to me, seem on the very edge of being lost and forgotten; like my younger years. Thank you for it.
