alex smith owns this classic, shannon noll is a try hard very very b grade karaoke singer at best, the emotion in the original is lovely , alex has a lovely powerful voice , the only people who like nolls version are to young to have heard the original, noll should be stopped singing for public safety!!!!!!

Quick poll: How many people watching this think this song is about them?

Wonderful. I have practically forgotten about this song and suddenly it reappears again. Reminds me of my student days in Melbourne.

Some of the products and signs around the "corner shop" may bring back fond memories for Australians. These are the ones I saw: Phoenix, Robur, Rosella, State Savings Bank of Victoria, Craven A, Schoolgirls' Weekly and Streets Icecream. The shop actually changes from being set in the 'olden days' to being modern towards the end of the song. All the new signs such as Coca-Cola start popping up.

So '80s! Nice song though. Here in Italy the year after (1983) we had a cover of it by Anna Oxa (check out the vid at watch?v=BcDJPjoRQJo

Oh my god, memories of seeing them perform at the Manly Vale Hotel, we were drunk as skunks and screamed our lungs out "What about me"! LOL
Just to illustrate ... ( 2 weeks ago by abcpaultigecba)
Just to illustrate the fact that nothing has changed for generations. The little bloke struggles to be heard, and as a consequence is constantly trampled on. This song is one of the best I have ever heard.

This song brings back great memories of thowing up the first time I heard it
come on people this song is so sappy and corney

boobie, you have a heart of stone. you don't feel any sorrow for the little boy waiting by the encounter or the girl behind the counter who ignores him because she's too busy waiting for a dream?
Moving Pictures had ... ( 2 weeks ago by magottyk)
Moving Pictures had the biggest hit in 1982 and it is still one of the best ballads ever recorded. shannon noll totally stuffed it up when he rerecorded it it didnt measure up to the original in any way shape or form. recommend any one to listen to it at least once and you will come back again and again.
love the 80's ( 2 weeks ago by allanandrea)
love the 80's
Still a great song. ... ( 2 weeks ago by DissentingVoice)
Still a great song. I didn't know they were Aussie/Kiwi; at the time I thought they were Canadian, since their name is also the name of a Rush album and at that time a lot of Canadian bands were breaking big here in the US. Good stuff though, no matter the nationality.
your forgiven... ... ( 2 weeks ago by nzoz1982)
your forgiven... the band's leadsinger's cousin nearly killed my dad (a long time ago), so you thinking they're Canadian is quite forgivable next to that.
i totally agree ... ( 1 week ago by Mitchy01Moto)
i totally agree with you. you can tell that shannon noll was just trying to put emotion in it and isnt believable unlike the original were u can feel what they are singing about.

boobie needs more tittie to make him softer.

I agree. But then, it is so much so that I can't help but like it. Memories of teenage girls singing out dramatically at slumber parties, ah yes. A cheesy fav, with respect. :)
