Then and Now: Episode Tree
I can't say that this was ever one of my favorite breakup songs. I never even saw the movie. [But then, I never liked Journey's "Open Arms" either, that was supposed to be the quintessential make-out song of my youth. ] I think I would have turned to Depeche Mode if my heart was breaking, back in 1984, most likely. Nonetheless, I can remember snatches of the video for it.
Then
Against All Odds - Phil Collins 1984

oh, i remember those days when i really liked phil collins and genesis. a memory of playing volley-tennis at school comes with mr. phil. (we practiced to music sometimes.)
volley-tennis is what we did when playing real volleyball was too hard for us mere mortals. you let the ball bounce once. ironically, it was an afterschool team sport. but it WAS fun!

I think Phil still wins this battle.

I came from Jack and must agree with him on the renditions. I always loved this song, though "Somebody" is a good one, too.

This song still gives me that chilled feeling. Good choice.
