80s song... but you're going to hate me for this!

For those still wondering what song it is, its Temptation by New Order. Great tune!

Lunatic Fringe by Red Rider??

It's a little slow and sad sounding and has a Tears for Fears kind of vibe. The "whoa's" take up a lot of the entire song - like whoa OH (upper note) oh oh (all drawn out, 2 beats each) and it sounds echoed or layered. Before that were six syllables that go up and come down. I know it's *very* little to go by, but it was so nice I had to ask. It sounded like a very simple 2/4 or 4/4 song.

It's not Tarzan Boy and it's not Things Can Only Get Better... hmm.

Its Fixx . Red skies

I am absolutely positive it has to be this song:

Howard Jones- Things Can Only Get Better

Your welcome

I am 100% youre searching for this song that plays after the guy finish shooting the toy gun

It is so similar to Tarzan Boy but the beat kind of relax a bit.
If im not mistaken this song has alarm clocks as beat too.
Sorry I still don't know the name of the song.
Maybe someone will notice this.

EDIT: Found it. The name of the song is Swiss Boy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLq4Pg2KKrw

It could be this masterpiece from 1986: John Farnham - You're the voice

It may be Sweet Child o Mine - Guns and Roses (Australian band)

I think what your looking for is called livin on a prayer by Bon jovi. Hopefully this is the one!

Self Control by Laura Branigan. That part of the song is also sampled in RuPaul's We Can Fly Tonight (which also has a reference to A-ha's Take on Me).

Based on your description. Take a listen to the song "Daimond Sun" By Glass Tiger. The song is really nice although being Canadian it didn't get much airplay world wide. If not that, than try Rock & Hyde - "Dirty Water". Both meet your description. Let me know if either matches. - elderkinmusic@live.ca.

LOL Did you really just say GNR are Australian?? Axle ran around with tight *** american biker shorts with his shlong hanging out. You can't get more american than GNR.

New Kids on the Block - Hangin' Tough ?

It may be Sweet Child o Mine - Guns and Roses

Swiss Boy - Lou Sern

After all these years and no one has gotten it right, seriously? Its obviously Faithfully by Journey, released in 1983.

I was having a hard time finding something similar... thanks to the person who posted about the canadian band: Glass Tiger. Turns out I was looking for: The Payolas - Dirty Water

So thats my guess of what you maybe looking for: The Payolas - Dirty Water
