↓ LYRICS ↓
Hot summer streets and the pavements are burning, I sit around
Trying to smile, but the air is so heavy and dry
Strange voices are saying (What did they say?)
Things I can't understand
It's too close for comfort, this heat has got right out of hand
It's a cruel (Cruel), cruel summer
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel (It's a cruel), cruel summer
Now you're gone
The city is crowded, my friends are away and I'm on my own
It's too hot to handle so I got to get up and go
It's a cruel (Cruel), cruel summer
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel (It's a cruel), cruel summer
Now you're gone
You're not the only one
It's a cruel (Cruel), cruel summer
(Leaving me) Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel (It's a cruel), cruel summer
Now you're gone
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Now you're gone
You're not the only one
It's a cruel (Cruel), cruel summer
(Leaving me) Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel (It's a cruel), cruel summer
Now you're gone
You're not the only one
It's a cruel (Cruel), cruel summer
(Leaving me) Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel (It's a cruel), cruel summer

Mad respect to anyone who is still listening to this masterpiece.
Jonathan Cooper. 1984!!!!!! well. summer `84
The college years....so long ago!
I was heading into 9th grade after the summer of '84 --- not a cruel summer but actually kinda fun!
It's crazy, but I love this song more nowadays, than I did back in the 80's!
@@Line-pq5ko --- nostalgia is a very powerful psychological tool --- even mediocre songs from the 80's sound amazing compared to today's drivel
1980 people: The future will be awesome!
2020 people: I want to go back to the 80s.
Lmaoo so true 😆 80’s kid here 🙋🏻♀️
2000s: the iPod is so cool
1980s: we already had the Walkman
true
Definitely.
I was 2 , but yes take me back to the 80s 😟
The 1980's was just so colorful, magical and amazing!!!!! ❤❤❤❤
no it was full of coke, aids and the constant threat of nuclear war
Taylor swifts is way better
90s tooooo
yes it was.. you had to be there
@@Kenzieplayz swift sucks
2024. I m 58, listening to this tune when I was 18 back then in 1984…this song was so electrifying. I missed those years in 80s…esp the music of the 80s…❤❤❤… and of course Madonna’s first hit HOLIDAY 😊😊
I'm the same age as you. Summer of 84 eh? 'Long hot summer' by the Style Council was definitive. I was mostly listening to Grandmaster Flash, Blondie and punk stuff that I'd recorded off John Peel I think. Happy, happy days. Rock on!
The 80's were such a fun time to grow up. No internet, no phones, no social media....we were so happy.
Totally agree..I grew up in the 60's...even better!
80's was so soft on the skin
girls turned me down in the 80's
Yes, absolutely!
Gone but never forgotten..80s and 90s will forever live on with us.
Being a teen in the 80's would've been heaven
It was the best!
it was, without a doubt.
@@robmelstanek2358 It was the BEST and if i could go back I would but would never trade my kids in, I would take them with me:)
Yeah if u weren’t colored or lgbtq
Look up what minimum wage was
Being a teen in the eighties was awesome. No cell phones, great music, few worries.
I WANT TO GO BACK, NOW.
Other then the Cold War.
We're in a new one anyways lol
AMEN! Best eras of my life…80’s and 90’s!
Absolutely. We survived back in the 80's without phones and life was good
Taylor Swift doesn't have Jack on this song
This is the middest song I’ve ever heard

As a metalhead, I can say without shame that I love this song. The structure, the chord changes, the backing vocals, everything is on point.
To me, the best part is the simplicity. The music video could have been made for a few grand, the dancing isn't spectacular (yet seems real), and the women are clearly having fun. As a bonus to a metalhead, check out Cry for the Earth Bounds by Ensiferum if you never have. ;)
Same without shame
Same. It's got serious ABBA vibes.
Same
Another metalhead here. I fully agree with you! I have the same with other classic songs like Obsession from Animotion or Walk like a Egyptian from The Bangles. Great songs!
If you grew up on this kind of music, THEN YOUR CHILDHOOD WAS AWESOME!
@Lee 80s Welcome.
hell yeah!
@@tommyjarvis6536 Better late than never.
I was born in 96 and unfortunatly could not experience the 80s but what a time to be alive it seemed!
Even the many TV music theme songs like Airwolf, StreetHawk, Knight Ryder kicked butt!
I am 69 and mourn for the loss of my youth and the great music that was produced back in the day.
Don't be sad it's over, be happy that it happened.
1955 is a great year to be born
55& I'm happy to watch my son live his teens ❤
2024. I am 68.
Yes. This is what music was intended to be !
Trinidad & Tobago.
West Indies.
Ace of Base's cover is just as good, they stayed true to the original but made it their own.
A great touch of reggae/Caribbean rhythms running through the song!!☀️ Greetings from the UK🌏🙏
And long live Bertie’s sauce!
@@armadillo1231 no eh, it have far better tasting pepper sauce than that. They used to be good but quality dropped.
... 68 too ... I stayed at the bar drinking my bottle of whisky lurking at the girls dancing ... It was cool 3 or 4 times / week ... (France - Strasbourg)
80's was such a great decade for music, movies!
and people
The best!!
Karate Kid
Absolutely!
golden age
Im making this the official song of summer 2020
Same!!!🙋
Yep
I agree
Wanna cruise to ocean drive in a 911GT under the sun
I second that.
The 80s rule some of the best music to be raised on. My boyfriend & I both love this song 🎵 💕
Another BLAST FROM THE PAST...It is APRIL 3rd 2024 and who is here with me for this AWESOME smash hit...This is why I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE 80's...👏👏👏
Yes still here,the sun was always shining in the 80s great bands,try kc&the sunshine band give it up,that song just brightens my day
As an 80’s child, I can wholeheartedly say that decade was my favorite to grow up in. This song is pure nostalgia.
Agreed! ❤
IT Was the best. I want to go back.
I bet it was cooler to be their Generation
Am also a 80’s child 48 years old now. Very Nostalgic 😢
Also a 80s child 42 yes young not old I find best decade ever let's all get a time machine and go back to these years 😂😂😂
The 80s. What a decade. I'm 64 & still listening to this fabulous music.

Just liked this so listen again lol
Happy 40th birthday to Cruel Summer. Forty years ago today, Monday June 27, 1983, Cruel Summer was released. This song will stay in my memory forever, because it also embodies my attitude towards life in the 80s and that is what made the great music of that time so special to me. Behind all the energy and joie de vivre you can feel that pain and longing that deep emotions bring with them. The more years go by, the more clearly I hear this longing. She has always been an important part of me and always will be. Thank you Bananarama and thank you Cruel Summer. Congratulations from Berlin, Germany
Watching the karate kid as we speak
Excellent Post
Absolutely! Happy 40th to Bananarama and Cruel Summer. I was going into my junior year in HS in the fall of '83 when this came out in the summer of that year. It was once of the best summers in my life and this song is summer. It was in heavy rotation on MTV back in the day and of course who could forget it was in Karate Kid.
On June 27th, this song was played on the 80s 80s station in Germany. I highly recommend to all lovers of 80s music, but especially to American listeners, as they will probably hear great 80s tracks from Europe that never made it to the radio waves stateside.
@@10.11.9 Cool!!! Thank you for posting!
I was 12 in 1983 when this came out. Still listening to it in Dec 2022. So many good memories. I wish I could go back for a day to relive those good times. Stay blessed everyone. Life is short. Be good to yourself + your loved ones. ❤️🙏🏽
You are one year younger than me. I was 13 in 1983 and had already been in Karate classes for seven years when Karate Kid came out. I lost my shit when that movie came out.
Same I was 11 when this came out and the memories of middle school wearing those jelly sandals and neon jelly bracelets lol💗
Thanks, i feel the same
WOW!!! i only 9 year's old when this came out!! love this song tho!!!
True
Congratulations to these ladies, not too many groups own a season every single time it comes about.
This is the only cruel summer! I’ll ever know!! 😊
Best decade ever. Music, movies, and merchandise. Never will we see those wonderful years again but I was glad to be a part of them and will always have the memories.
and girls!
Lucky you guys were apart of the 80’s, no fair.
Great president, too.
Amen best movies fo sho

I was a kid in the 80s. It was so much fun. break dancing, bicycle groups of kids going to the pubic pool, everyone always outside playing sports or with a radio and waiting on that new 80 hit to come on so you could dance. My sisters making up routines to the music. Parents did worry about where you were just come home before the street light came on. Great fun.
I'm also a 80s kid and growing up in that era was so fun.
Fact check TRUE !! I loved being a teen in the 80's. 💗
AMEN!!
Indoor Roller skating , dancing , break dancing ... now most are obsessed about going outside to take pictures of “ fake fun times” photoshopping, plastic surgery , fans only ,..... fun was Real & Relaxed
Big facts
Born in 1975. This was the music of my childhood.
And it's still burned in your brain isn't it?
Same here
2024! I'm 40.
Love the memories of weekend trips with Mom and Dad. RIP❤
Needs to be played at least once every summer, cruel or not.
I blare it on the first day of summer ☀️
like during this hot summer, u mean
Yes, Yes, Yes Indeed I agree.
Dude. This and Glenn Frys The Heat Is On are my summertime songs. Cause it's hot AF!
Ñ
This Song is still a timeless summer song!
I change the lyrics to COOL COOL Summer
the xylophone makes it cool
Summer, not only summer: I'm playing this song in the dead of winter so I can get up and dance, and pray for the whole world. The whole universe. Note to Putin': get off your ego, and sit up and fly right
@@lynnbaker9264 the instruments and their voices harmonizing is so amazing!
Fo real
This song brings back the eternity happy feelings I sensed, way back in the 80s, now transformed to Painful Nostalgia, of a Magical Time long gone.
Where has my life gone? Now it's a cruel time full of pain that won't go away. I suppose I got my 80s music to survive it all.
We had the best music. Long live the 80s in whatever form!
This
Couldn't agree more! My girlfriend and I broke up in the summer of 86. Each time I listen to this song, especially the line that says, "leaving me here on my own....now you're gone," it brings tears to my eyes. But the song also helps me reflect on the great times we spent together, and the fact that I had a great as a teenager in the 80s. It makes me feel nostalgic and euphoric.
Right on. 👍
This song makes you want to walk around the city on a Sunday afternoon, just enjoying the heat, the city and your own company.
But don't throw bananas at cop cars,,,,LOL. My little brother when he was 7 tossed a water balloon at one,,,,LOL.
For real. I'm in a 80s mood tonight about to listen to west end girls..... Pet shop boys..
With headphones on
And if you’re still in 2024 pray you’re not in a city like New York 😂
I stumbled upon this song and been obsessed with this
The 80s totally rocked. The best time on the planet for music.
and movies
No dispute about that.
@John Sluder, it seems like music back then embraced family, hope and opportunity. We had a taste of technology but we didn't choke on it like we do today. We had a sense of unity until smartphones took over. It's really sad. Human emotion is getting replaced by social media and then we wonder why our music no longer has life.
John Dyer c’est clair !
100% agree. 80s music is my favorite.
1984 was one of the best years of my life! Wish i could back but im sure everyone ne in the comments would too.
No thanx. That's the year i was born😔
I got married December 1984. Still married today. Great year for music and love!🙂
The REAL Cruel Summer; the only one we’ll ever need.
Dude the 80s were sick
Very strongly agree the 80s were amazing dude and so was the music👍🏽🙌🏽🎶
U can say that again
NOT IN LOS ANGELES THO-
U tellin' me
The 80s was aids and crack
This song was made in 1983. It got lost in tunes like "Every Breath You Take" by The Police, "Billie Jean" by Michael Jackson, "Africa" by Toto, and "Do You Really Want To Hurt Me" by The Culture Club. But it STILL is one of the best songs of that year. It just popped into my head for no reason today and here I am 🙂 That's the power of good music. It never really goes away.
The song never went away. I've heard it every summer for the last 40 years
@@phukfone8428 I dig what you're saying but unless you have their album, the CD, or you listen to it on your Bluetooth, I doubt very seriously you've heard Cruel Summer every summer for the past 40 years 🙂 When I said "Good music never really goes away" that means that good music is deep inside of your psyche and you will never forget it.
@@phukfone8428 Truth. I was living in Australia at the time , and all the radio stations played this song non stop. It was huge . Cruel summer indeed.
there's at least 3 MJ kuts I like more however Cruel Summer I enjoy much more than Billie Jean, so much that it's on my Top 🎱 kuts EVER ;-)
way to many good kuts in '83! the Flashdance kut, Separate Ways, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, Sweet Dreams, Sunday Bloody Sunday, Too Shy, DAMN
Still a hit today in 2024🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉. Beautiful melody and memories of those cruel summers with your high school crush.
I think we all can agree the 80s/90s were the best generations. So happy and thankful was a kid growing up then.
❤
so cool... yet coded ly Cruel LoL
Fact!
80's>90's
Listening to this song after watching the two seasons of "Cobra Kai" love it...

I was singing this song in my head every episode and it" Shocked Me" when they played it episode 10 Season 2,SO 80'S!!!
Same here, man :)
Same here.
Especially the ending of season 2 when Johnny is sad thinking about Miguel and a sad version of this song starts playing😓
Me born in 80's ❤️
Raised in 90's ❤️

2000s is ok but since after 2016 everything jus went down hill bad
@@bowerz1167 fr i miss those great times when the paul brothers were are only problems
Me, a baby to a young boy not realising how great the music was and also liked the 90’s and from there on music has gone to absolute trash, I mean at what point did it go so horribly wrong?
@@eccawarrior around 2004-2008 when all the “big names” rose up. Ya know, Justin Bieber, pretty much every other wannabe rapper kid at the time, all the trash that crawled its way out of the woodworks and found a home in places like the early apps like SoundCloud and stuff.
All of these 80s songs make me feel incredibly nostalgic, but usually the videos are shot in LA or London or on a set or whatever. This one is 10 times better, and worse, for me because it's New York. I was walking these same streets at the time this song came out.
Oh yes it's good to like funk music !
The 80's had the BEST music!! ❤
Dam straight 80s rock back then. That's why i.m building a TIME MACHINE u with Me.😊
❤❤❤ best ❤❤❤
I remember hearing this song in the first Karate Kid movie. Great times!!!
Damn'! I thought it was"Legend of Billie Jean:/
Yes and somehow this song was NOT on the soundtrack album. I have it. Every time i hear this kick on Karate Kid comes straight to mind and Daniel is riding his bike to H.S.
Also in Cobra Kai season 2 when they go back to school
Same. It made that movie so much more cool

Ah as a 52 year old man, I still get a hit from the feel of this song. Pop with a real atmosphere.
Remember when our silliest Pop Songs from the 80s were and are still gems?
Hey! Marke ! I am 52 as well and this song is the first record I bought with my piggy bank. I am listening g to it right now as I sip my morning coffee, getting up at Times to dance…I probably still will 30 years ahead from now. Have a great day!

Best period in Pop Culture history
Yup
80's masterpiece.
The production value of the 80's is just impeccable
Ya we need to tell people to stop remaking this song
It's like, are they going for 'high concept' with the shots of their feet and under the stairs etc, or is it, 'here ladies, have a few drinks and then get out there and have a laugh'? Or somewhere in between
If we are still all under quarantine, it will truly be a "Cruel Summer".
Jeff Warren ... GREAT comment !!... sigh! Greetings from Italy.
Awesome I agree with Jeff We R All under quarantine
It will definitely b a Cruel
Summer- but we do need to b thankful those of us who didnt get COVID19 and please prayer for those who did or still do have it try to help each other but of course staying safe - as for the song Awesome Fabalous I love Bannaramma

This takes me back to my childhood...
*I was Born in 86. I remember this being one of my favorite songs at the skating rink as a kid in 90s. Here I am still jamming this in August of 2023!*
This song is nostalgia. There's an ethereal quality to the song. Because the three sing the whole song in unison, not just the chorus, it almost sounds like whispering. This song always sends me.
Everyone in the music video looks like they’re having a blast. Great song
this is actually lovely, the girls seem really nice, not taking themselves too seriously
The 80s were just so surreal and carefree. Lots of fun, great music and memories!!
Yes they were😐
I was space truckin in the 80's,
Yes!
Well they weren’t exactly “carefree”. The was a major economic recession, renewed Cold War tensions, the AIDS epidemic, etc. But a lot of art at the time had a very “live for today” attitude, because any day could be your last.
Carefree for you maybe ;)
Covid has been a cruel summer
Wait till second covid wave... Not new wave. ..lol
covid isn't that cruel, but the response to it has claimed many thousands of lives
Amen
Yikes, you can say that again!
Yes!
God how I miss those days.
Bananarama are another iconic example of ladies who didn't have to show all their goodies in order to be awesomely seen and heard? 👑💃🏾❤️🌹
This song ate the 80s and left no crumbs behind.
Music will never be like the 80s. This is the best and no cellphones
Or facebook or twitter
yknow if u search a bit u can find bands who make music which sounds like in the 80's because the style of the music became so iconic ppl are tryna recreate it, and with cellphones and internet and youtube, you can listen to the music you like wherever you want so yeah
Cellphones were fine. Smartphones, on the other hand...
This came out in Summer of 1984. I was 14yrs old wanting to be grown. 2019 now, 49yrs old and wish I was a kid again in 84. No worries and no bills.

I was 27. Madonna was also gaining popularity. It was amazing.
thomas mitchell I'm also 49 years old and remember how much I fancied banannarama especially the middle one was my favourite. Mostly child hood memories in the 80's....90's was best for pubs and clubs plus the dance music especially early 90's ? I hit the pubs and clubs every weekend ,young ,single and playing the field made this most fun time in my life for obvious reasons . Happy days

My wife of 18 years passed away 2 months ago today. This song came on the radio, haven't heard it in nearly 20 years, as it played I had to pull over and cry on the steering wheel. Song was always good, really hits close now.:(

I'm sorry for your loss man. It was some good times. Really takes us durring a time when we had no worries amd good times.
Sorry for your loss. Such a great song you guys have great taste.

That's a very fair opinion
Everything was better unlike today the world's gone bonkers

I completely concur! Growing up in the 80s and early 90s was actually really awesome! How very nice and 'simple' most things were back in those days (esp. pop and rock music-wise)! Such a very happy and careless childhood I had!❤ Thank you, Universe!!!

This song reminds me of lonely summer days.

Ця пісня змушує хвилювати серця і тіло ,як 20 років тому так 200 в майбутньому
This is an amazing 80's Pop song!Quality,Style,Atmosphere,all of them up to the top.
The 80s was definitely a nostalgic decade, music was great, fun times, but such a blur now looking back. Too fast!!
90s were better🙂
The best decade!!
ps.the money was good too
Such a fast time ..so fast they had to cool my heels
Even as a millennial I kinda agree with u
@@henrysmart6854 Were you there? Everything went to shit in the 90's, especially music
My daughter is 14 and wish she lived in the 80s.
I of course would go back in a heartbeat.

Remember this song when I lived in Des Moines, Iowa. I was traveling for my career and when it came on the radio, I loved hearing this music. I was 25 years old back in those days. Now I'm 65. Oh my gosh, where did the time go?
I don't think there will be music like this anymore 😢
Nope
OH MY GOD THIS SONG IS SO NOSTALGIC
Here here oh the memories bringing happy tears to my eyes oh Daniel in karate kid and cobra still ever so handsome 💗💗

The 80's were just awesome musically
It was awesome everything Paul it was just great just a great decade of Time Forever the 80s
We will never get those days back. Just go on CZcams and type the 80's music and reminisce
