Not So Awesome Old Song of the Week: "The NeverEnding Story" by Limahl

I have this Spotify ad to thank for putting The NeverEnding Story theme song back in my head:



That's the original actor who played Atreyu in the 1984 film, along with the real voice of Falkor, together again 32 years later.

I was a big fan of the song as an eight-year-old (and an even bigger fan of the movie), but I'm not sure it stands the test of time very well--or has any appeal to people other than children, for that matter.

Wikipedia fact: Limahl is an anagram for Hamill, the singer's actual last name.
