DON'T YOU (THE BREAKFAST CLUB, 1985)

"Being bad feels pretty good, huh?" - John Bender

The 'king of watchable teen films' in the '80s (quoted by author Mick Martin) sadly passed away just last August 6 due to heart attack. His films has generated a cult following through the years with movies like Sixteen Candles, Ferris Bueller's Day Off and The Breakfast Club. The song Don't You by Simple Minds essays the travails of teen misfits while on a weekend detention. This one is for Mr. John Hughes.

DON'T YOU
sung by: Simple Minds

Hey, hey, hey ,hey
Ohhh...

Won't you come see about me?
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby

Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving me everything inside and out and
Love's strange so real in the dark
Think of the tender things that we were working on

Slow change may pull us apart
When the light gets into your heart, baby

Don't You Forget About Me
Don't, Don't, Don't, Don't
Don't You Forget About Me

Will you stand above me?
Look my way, never love me
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down

Will you recognize me?
Call my name or walk on by
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down, down

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ohhhh.....

Don't you try to pretend
It's my feeling we'll win in the end
I won't harm you or touch your defenses
Vanity and security

Don't you forget about me
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby
Going to take you apart
I'll put us back together at heart, baby

Don't You Forget About Me
Don't, Don't, Don't, Don't
Don't You Forget About Me

As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
As you walk on by

Will you call my name?
When you walk away
Or will you walk away?

Will you walk on by?
Come on - call my name
Will you call my name?

I say :La la la...
When you walk on by...
And you call my name...
