1964 Video (MV)

My whole world changed forever
Back in 1964
When flight 101 from London
Touched down upon our shore
We were a generation mourning
Our loss in 63
But those Liverpool lads took us by the hand
And made us smile eight days a week

Back in 1964
The start of a pop culture holy war
Armed with drums and guitars
They were rock and roll stars who challenged authority
Back in 1964
They came and they changed what had been before
There was hope in the air
So we grew our hair and followed in their lead
In '64

The first time that I saw them
I could feel the energy
Coming to me in black and white
On our Philco TV screen
It was hard to hear the music
Over adoring teenage screams
But from that moment on I knew that
I would carry on the dream

Back in 1964
The start of a pop culture holy war
Armed with drums and guitars
They were rock and roll stars who challenged authority
Back in 1964
They came and they changed what had been before
There was hope in the air
So we grew our hair and followed in their lead
In '64

It's forty five years later
But it seems like yesterday
Though the innocence of bygone years
Has all but slipped away
And while the dream died in the Apple
That bleak December day
The power of their music can still
Chase my blues away

Back in 1964
The start of a pop culture holy war
Armed with drums and guitars
They were rock and roll stars who challenged authority
Back in 1964
They came and they changed what had been before
There was hope in the air
So we grew our hair and followed in their lead
In '64
