He wrote this song for a girl whose family was DEVASTATED by their father suddenly ditching them in poverty and he helped those kids through it. The 16 year old was the most crushed and this song was for her and them. It’s not a sex based song. He paid all three kids weekly just to do little errands for him. It’s a BEAUTIFUL song❤

Wow! It's rare when you see a man cry, but the way Benny sings this song, he is definitely crying from the heart. Still the best song vocally ever!

I'm almost 77 years old, and I absolutely melt when I hear this song. ♥️

By far, the best song ever recorded. There isn't another human that could sing this song like Benny.

That my friends is how a real man lays down a power ballad. Wow! Badass!

I'm still listening to this great masterpiece ❤❤❤ 2024

He died on June 29th 2020 and he's not suffering anymore because God took his pain away from his body and his music was so much different than any other music I listened to back in the day and God bless his talented soul😭💔😭B.M. 1946-2020

Who's listening during quarantine??

He kept his beautiful voice all those years! Oh how he was so talented and nobody sings that well for so long. Rip Benny❤Forever in our ❤️

I grew up in Syracuse, Benny Mardones was and is legend. This was played at every dance, at every prom. This was THE SONG. He wasn't widely known, but there is no mistaking that voice. He's gone now, but never forgotten. He made Syracuse his second home, and they love him, even now. Go to Syracuse sometime and say the name Benny Mardones. This was talent, this was a voice.

One of the most beautiful songs ever recorded. ❤👈🏻

I'm 56 now in 2024 an I've always LOVED THIS SONG WITH MY ENTIRE WHOLE ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

This guy's voice is addictive.. RIP🕊

Amazing he didn't blow his vocal chords singing like that all the years he lived. . Real class act and talent. You can tell he always wanted to put on a A show for the fans no matter how big or small the venue was. Hitting notes as you get older is difficult because your vocal range isn't the same as when you were 20. Amazing raw talent. One of the best. He was great human being with a big heart. RIP Benny. We lost a great talent.

"If I could fly, I would pick you up" so beautiful!!! RIP Mardones thank you for giving us such a beautiful love song.

This song gave me chills 40 years ago, the first time I heard it, and it still does today. Benny was one of a kind, who will forever hold his unique, never to be duplicated spot in the music industry. What a voice.

Nobody sings songs this good live! I LOVE HIS VOICE! What a BEAUTIFUL song...its been my favorite for 40 years! Rest in peace Benny...your fans miss you dearly

Listening him in2024. I'm 68 years old.

His voice was still amazing in 2009. He brought a lot of joy to anyone who heard him sing. Love you Benny!🧡

I was 26 when this song came out. It was timely. I was dating a 16 y.o. girl at the time and was so in love with her and so heartbroken when we had to end it. I would listen to this song and remember it raining outside and thinking it was the end of the world. Im 68 now but I still like the song and it immediately reminds me of that time in my life like it was yesterday.

If I were ever granted 3 wishes.... one wish would be this: It's 1:43 in the morning ,there"s a smoky, nondescript, karaoke bar, on the edge of town. It's full of friendly, fun loving people. Some are finishing their drinks, everyone is laughing together, having and enjoying the sultry, summer air. While the patrons are discussing their late night plans, a women is finishing with her rendition of Sade's "Smooth Operator" The bartender yells out "last call" Nobody notices, when I walk in by myself and up to the stage. The man at the karaoke machine asks "what song buddy?" I reply how about "Into the Night" , Benny Mardones A couple minutes pass by while I stand there holding the microphone. Then the song begins. At first nobody pays attention but then I belt out "Sheeeee's just 16 years old, leave her alone, theeey say" Everybody stops what they are doing and become fixated on the stage. For 4 1/2 minutes, I'm able to sing this song and sound exactly like Benny, note for note. As the song ends, every person in the audience goes wild and gives me a roaring, standing ovation.I set the microphone down on the floor, I walk out of the bar.......and into the night!

Would have been neat to hear Benny and Steve Perry sing a song together.

Benny's name isn't widely known, but his song is on the charts forever.

God my Uncle Benny is a badass. He's the man. Blessed to be related to him. :)

Now that's a voice. He's aged and still sings at the same tunning. He doesn't deserve to be so underrated.

I was 16 years old when this song came out. I had hoped I would find a man that would love me that much. Never happened. 55 now & happy to live alone.

this is one of the best I mean the best song of all time

One of the most beautiful songs ever written!!

Man, that gave me chills hearing him hit those notes still. Awesome.

Not only is he still blowing the roof off with that incredible voice but he still has that awesome 1980s hair. An incredible performance of an incredible song. Thank you Benny!

Wow, he sounds as good as he did in 1980. That's not easy to keep the voice all this time. I'm impressed.

He did'nt make it to 100. He died yesterday at 73. Parkinsons, broken hips, blood infections finally took him. R.I.P. B. M.

Nobody will ever be able to top this in my book. So much heart in his singing. That voice. Gets me every single time. Every time. I love you, Benny Mardones. What a gift.

He's still singing damn good here. R.I.P. Benny Mardones😞

It's sad that during his last show. His hands were shaking and he was really trying to give a good show. Now that he passed, it saddens me. RIP to a great singer.

An emotional song for all time. He had an extraordinary voice, sung from his heart. I am so sad to learn of his passing.

When this song came out I was an 18 year old dating my 16 year old future wife. After all these years it's still our song. He sounds amazing. So underated.

Amazing... always loved this song. That is why it is called a SONG. Is everyone so ignorant that a singer can’t sing a simple song without being labeled a freak, a pedi, etc... it is a SONG, that simple, and beautifully performed. If we tore apart every song that we truly loved, everyone would be labeled something negative, sadly that’s what today’s society does. Stop judging and enjoy 😉

Wow, he can show Miley, Biebs, Beyoncé, and all the musicians today how it was really done!

This song still gives me goosebumps -- will never tire of it; will love it always!

Everyone who likes this song listens to 10 or 20 times at a clip because the passion is soooo real.

I can watch this all day long, Benny was an incredible talent, no one compares, he will surely be missed.

This is the kind of song where you can feel the emotions of the songwriter

Not by a long shot....and this song was a hit TWICE. He has released many many albums and still performs. In fact, I'll be seeing him Memorial Day weekend int the Syracuse area where he is performing 2 shows. Things are actually picking up for him and he is about to release a CD. Check out the documentary trailer, also on You Tube, "Into The Night, The Benny Mardones Story"...it's amazing!!! He is AWESOME and he's one of my best friends.

There is not one live recording of him singing this song that is bad. Not one. I know, because I've seen and listened to each and every one of them. You've still got my undying respect, Mr. Mardones.

This is such a great song! I love it just as much now as I did back then!! He has such an incredible voice, it’s rough and smooth at the same time! So Beautiful!

SUCH A TRAGIC LOSS TO THE WORLD RIP BROTHER.

This song to me, was never about a person, but a beloved pet. ♥️ Thank you

To all the people who don't like this video- the only reason you don't like it because you've never heard real music before! I got to see him live when I worked for the balloon fest in Syracuse New York and that was awesome! Even know he's old enough to be my grandfather he can still sing like crazy!

Wished I could go back in time to one of his concerts Great artist

RIP Benny Mardones - saw that he passed away due to Parkinson's. Great voice!

Benny,you will be remembered forever because of"Our Song"

Great artist. Great Immortal Song.

Amazing song by an amazing singer, Benny had a very powerful voice and not many singers can sing live and keep so faithful to the original recording.

I don't think anyone could successfully ever re-do this song.

I’ll never get sick of listening to this song it’s by far one of the greats 🎤

Sadly he now has Parkinsons but this is indeed an incredibly moving beautifully wrought tune.

This song still raises the hairs on the back of my neck. What a voice. What a fab song! Classic!

RIP Benny. You made a difference.

Tremenda voz, bella, que desgarra y te desarma.. Cuando joven tenía la voz parecida a otro grande la la música el vocalista de The Journey. Porque tuvo que ser así.. Nunca lo sabremos, solo darle gracias por habernos dejado su música!

this was my favourite song in 1980 and i still love it today

We will miss you Benny . Your song will always stay in heart . RIP

Benny is great but man, that bass player is outstanding.

Eu amo essa música eu ouço ela todos os dias tem brasileiros aí curtindo também

I just learned of his death in June 2020. I am glad that he enjoyed a nice career run in central New York in his later years. R.I.P. , Benny. We love you.

RIP Benny Mardones, the Angels now have you singing in their choir. 😇🪽

Benny had the best voice ever. We love and miss you. Rip

Dude on the piano is a boss.

This songs takes me back 2 when I was 16 yrs old..cant believe I'm still listening 2 it now Rip

Amazing - 30+ yrs. later. Still one of my faves from my 30 yr.old self. What most of the posts don't get/understand (& I'm not knocking you!), this is our music - the 60s,70s,80s. The original video was an MTV moment to match the words & actions. The song itself is, quite simply, a love song. If it had personal meaning or not, it was, for so many of us, a love song. We never hear a love song anymore - we have to go back in time (thanks to KZfaq) to hear them. The singers/bands didn't have elaborate costumes, they weren't paid zillions but, whether they sang a fast dance number or a slow, romantic song, they played their hearts out for the joy of the music. Go back to my parents time - the 40's. Sinatra, Goodman, Miller all started the same way, traveling from town to town, night after night, trying to make a living, bringing the music to those who love it. I write off the 90s and today - I can't dance to it, sing to it and can't understand half of the words to it. I'll listen to Mom's music, my music, as my kids (in their 40s) listened to mine and I to theirs. One thing no one can take away from any of us is our music - our favorites still playing in our heads, coming across one we had forgotten, a song reflecting a personal moment in our lives. Sit back and enjoy it.

RIP Benny, I remember chatting with you at Lakeside Bakery when you lived in Lakeland, NY. Saw you a few times at Longbranch Park, Peace

Benny keeping the crowd straight! Performer and security!

How many of you can remember dancing to this? I do rest in peace and thank you for the Memories

One of those songs that never get old and caries more than the eye can see !!!!!!!!!! sorry for the haters thar are always looking to bring something down.

Love this song makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck. Also makes me want to cry. His voice never have I ever heard someone with a voice like that. RIP wish I could have seen you sing this in person.

One of the greatest voices ever hands down!!! Shame he didn't have more success.

Godspeed Benny, you did great!

Podran pasar 1000 años y Benny aun me eriza la piel..

Me mueroooo que voz fascinante ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡Benny está canción la amoooo 🙏😍💜💜🌷

Soul brother he got that soul

I'm 57, I've heard this song a thousand times and never knew anything about it. As a song writer myself I can tell when a song is " pure" and comes straight from the heart... No phone baloney here, this man had a love who he couldn't connect with because they said she was too young... Not the first time this has ever happened.

Why waan't he more successful?!?!?! The world desperately needed more of his voice, talent and soul

Just love that song.

RIP June 29, 2020.

That moment you look for, and begin listening to, a song that holds a deep meaning for you ... and finding out the singer died last year. Benny, you killed this song here. Thank you so much for being the backing track for one of the greatest memories of my life. May you rest in peace.

Growing up in the late 70’s, early 80’s, Benny lived down the road about a mile! Benny was larger than life and lived for the gathering and was one of the most approachable people! As I said central New York growing up on a small rural lake had its advantages🤔🤔🤔and Sheila C in my opinion is his best tune. Maybe because I got to hear it ringing from ten feet away so many times that you could hear everything crisp and clean🤯🤔thanks Benny honored to know you🤯🤯🤯

Rest in Peace, Benny... the world is dimmer without you. ♡

He sang this with true feeling everytime he performed...RIP brotha...thsnks for the memories

This song will live on forever ! Incredible voice , great talent, and a super human being !! RIP Benny Mardones 💔
