It's a great testament to many of the 80s artists that after 30 plus years, many of the songs they created are being used for commercials, film scores, and being sampled by new artists who don't have have the "divine" talent to create something of this caliber. I am glad I lived through the 80s as a teenager. Amazing time for pop music! This song is just amazing!

    More lyrics..
    Come on baby, dry your eyes
    Wipe your tears
    Never like to see you cry
    Won't you please forgive me
    I wouldn't ever try to hurt you
    I just needed someone to hold me
    To fill the void while you were gone
    To fill this space of emptiness
    I'm only human
    Of flesh and blood I'm made
    Human
    Born to make mistakes
    So many nights I longed to hold you
    So many times I looked and saw your face
    Nothing could change the way I feel
    No one else could ever take your place
    I'm only human
    Of flesh and blood I'm made
    Human
    Born to make mistakes
    (I am just a man)
    (Human)
    (Human)
    Please forgive me
    (The tears I cry aren't tears of pain
    They're only to hide my guilt and shame
    I forgive you, now I ask the same of you
    While we were apart I was human too)
    I'm only human
    Of flesh and blood I'm made
    (I am just a man)
    Human
    Born to make mistakes
    (Human
    Human).

      Same here. Honestly I feel like the eighties are a state of mind and a way of life if you will it to be. Some of us are lucky enough to have lived during that time and understand that the dream of that time is so much more ellusive than anything worth desiring today. Today most artists aren't willing to allow for any sense of true emotionality and longing. It's out there. But definitely not mainstream like it was then. It's like trying to catch the wind.

    I'm a 44 year old guy, and 80's music is almost the only thing I remember about my childhood. I have little to no recollection of daily life, other than I was sad. Sometimes, it makes my eyes well up, and I don't know why. Once in a while, I remember something trivial or inconsequential when I hear a song, and it stops me dead in my tracks. It's my favorite genre.

This song sounds so fresh and clean and just makes you think damn we lived through one of the most amazing times there will ever be, no Internet no cell phones, back when people interacted, face-to-face if you wanted to talk to someone you had to call them and if they weren’t home, you didn’t get a hold of them until they got back or you had to go to their house.

    This song has been stuck in my head for the past 3 months and has no plans of leaving. Every few hours I just sing "I am just a mannnnnn" 😂

      The worries were there. The Cold War, narco-terrorism, AIDS, nuclear war, etc. It's just that life left space to appreciate things like a great tune by a great band like The Human League. I happened upon this video due to a great article about The Human League in the most recent issue of Mojo Magazine. I couldn't help but be slightly floored by how great a song this still is.
      The music industry has changed radically, so it seems. So have we as people. It was always about money and selling a product but artists still created art. With our present need for instantaneous gratification and the ubiquity of media due to the internet we've lost our ability to discern and to appreciate. The irony is that You Tube provides the medium to appreciate this great video.

    Lyrics:
    Come on baby, dry your eyes
    Wipe your tears
    Never like to see you cry
    Won't you please forgive me
    I wouldn't ever try to hurt you
    I just needed someone to hold me
    To fill the void while you were gone
    To fill this space of emptiness
    I'm only human
    Of flesh and blood I'm made
    Human
    Born to make mistakes
    So many nights I longed to hold you
    So many times I looked and saw your face
    Nothing could change the way I feel
    No one else could ever take your place
    I'm only human
    Of flesh and blood I'm made
    Human
    Born to make mistakes
    (I am just a man)
    (Human
    Human)
    Please forgive me
    (The tears I cry aren't tears of pain
    They're only to hide my guilt and shame
    I forgive you, now I ask the same of you
    While we were apart I was human too)
    (Human
    Human)
    I'm only human
    Of flesh and blood I'm made
    (I am just a man)
    Human
    Born to make mistakes
    (Human
    Human).

    Honestly, I think The Human League was way ahead of their time, and greatly underappreciated. I mean, they had some iconic, iconic songs. Moments of brilliance. The sound, look, writing were incredible.

      Time truly heals all wounds. Some take even longer than 38 years. But mine took 29 years. Sometimes u got to say F**k it and just let go , move on. Every minute that goes by, is another minute closer to us NO LONGER being alive.
