"When We Were Young" is a single by UK pop group Bucks Fizz.
The song was written by Warren Harry (under the name Warren Bacall) and was produced by Brian Tench and Andy Hill - the first time Hill had not solely produced one of the group's singles.

Released in June 1983, this was the group's ninth consecutive top 20 hit. The song eventually peaked at No.10 and remained on the chart for 9 weeks. [ [http://www.chartstats.com/songinfo.php?id=10747 Chartstats.com - Chart details] ] It was the first and only single to feature lead vocals by Jay Aston.
The song was notable for it's change in direction for the group. The production was heavy and the song had an ominous tone far removed from the group's usual pop sound. This was to be Bucks Fizz's last top 10 hit for three years. [ [http://www.chartstats.com/artistinfo.php?id=3429 Chartstats.com - Bucks Fizz discography] ]
The Promotional video for the song featured Aston dressed in rags with long unkempt hair against a garishly-coloured chroma key background. [ [http://www.bucksfizzearlyyears.co.uk/whenyoung.htm bucksfizzearlyyears.co.uk - video shots] ]
"When We Were Young" was later featured on the group's first "Greatest Hits" album and was also released as an extended 12" version.
