| Great song then, great song now. |
| I use to love it. Now it's fun but maybe a bit annoying too and I listen smiling as a fun but diddling memento of acne and hormones and trying to get Karen to my house after school for a half hour before my mom came home. |
| Rather a time capsule than a good song. I'm having fun with it though. |
| I find it interesting that the average rating is 6.9, yet many of the comments are about how terrible the song is. Could this have anything to do with the fact that the song got LOTS and LOTS of airplay at the time? This is the extended version, so it has parts that many probably never heard on AM radio. Perhaps that helps up the score. |

| There are those who prefere our doses of music to be limited to two minute quickies and those who prefer our doses to be longer and more involved. If the music doesn't feel anything, who cares about the lyrics ? Might as well be left as a poem to stand by itself. I prefer longer doses. |
| Epic! What a blast from the past. I listened to this when I was 15. |

| I'm really enjoying it....different strokes for different folks I guess... |
| Okey, after 30 or so years, I just finally noticed that this beat rocks! |
| This is a truly horrible song. |
| Seems like only yesterday .... |
