This song came out when I was a young 23-year-old, and now I'm 60. The lyrics "well I've wasted all my tears, wasted all of those years" resonate even more, especially when you have life's regrets... please try hard, and don't have regrets when you're 60.

I'm 63, and fell in love with this song when it came out when I was a young woman. It's beautiful yet heartbreaking. I always heard that "Red" wrote this from his personal experience, having been in a less than loving home & ran away. I will have to look that up now! I'm curious if that is accurate. Btw, I went thru lots of crap in my 20s but then found a good man, got married & had a daughter. She's 28 now & I've been married to her dad for 33 years. No regrets on those years at all!! Just wish I had better health, but you can't have it all!!

What’s even sadder when you read the story of his childhood, others mentioned that his mother left him and it was also difficult for him to be brought up just by his father who had a lot of issues too. He met up with his mother many years later just once I think. She said she had no regrets of letting him go! Can you imagine a mom saying something like this? You are just about to find out what it’s like to be a mom and you could never imagine doing this to your child!

I believe she contacted him and told him she had cancer and she was living in the US I believe, he flew out to see her only to discover it was all a lie. That was the end of their relationship. It was why he did not marry until 2010 . So sad but what an incredible gift he has and shares with us.

Fun Fact: He wrote this song when he was a teenager, it's about the fact that his Mother left him and his father when he was just a young boy, he grew up without his Mother and it broke his heart. "Wishing for the arms of Mater (Mother)." That's why he sings so soulfully. Also, Mick Hucknall is one of the truly great blue-eyed soul singers of all time.

It warms my heart when their identities are revealed because it proves the point that deep down there is no differences between the people of this planet!!

I know what you mean. I'm Black, and i remember when my mom used to play Procol Harum (A Whiter Shade of Pale) and Timi Yuro back in the 60's, we thought they were both Black. Procol Harum was a British band, and Timi is American and part Italian. Timi had such a powerful, magnificent voice, one of my all time favorites to this day. My parents listened to anybody that they liked, Brenda Lee, Tom Jones, Dean Martin, Engelbert, it didn't matter, good music is good music, no matter who sings it. All of the above artists have stayed with me all these decades, and thank goodness for CD's instead of those old worn out snap crackle pop LP's. Listen to " Make The World Go Away" by Timi. RIP Ms. Timi Yuro and Dean Martin, and to Mom and Dad.❤

Thinking someone is black/white has nothing to do with how well or powerful they sing. Robert Plant has a powerful voice, but no one thinks he's black. It has to do with the timbre of each voice, and qualities within different timbres that are normally associated with black or white vocals.

Simply Red is still making music today with their last album going to #6 on the British Charts. They've been much more successful in the UK and Europe with over 35 top 40 songs in the UK and 6 #1 Albums. Stars is the 11th biggest selling studio album of all time in the UK. Here are some suggestions. Holding Back the Years is from their 1st Album Picture Book. Listen to If you Don't know me By Now a remake of the Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes single that featured Teddy Pendergrass on vocals. It went to #1 in the US in 1989. . They are very hard to categorize as their music is a bit R&B, Jazz, Funk, Pop, and even a little Reggae. I'd suggest besides what I've mentioned Stars, For Your Babies, You've Got it, Angel featuring the Fugees Lauryn Hill from the movie Set it Off. Sad Old Red, The Live in Hamburg Video is great. Sunrise from 2003's Home which also had a remake of You Make me feel Brand New. ( He usually does a remake on every album, it's his way of paying tribute to the artists he loved growing up) Thrill Me (Funk) From 2019 I don't do Down or Thinking of you both Funk. If You like Reggae try Night Nurse.

Hold on. Northern Soul was a taste not a genre. Musically a revival of US RnB & Soul in clubs of Northern (mainly NW) England. It was also about the drug that fueled the all-nighters - and the identifying fashion. Like I said - a taste. It did however give birth to the dance-soul fusion of the late 70s-80s and from there, the Baggy sound, Madchester and so on.

Saw Simply Red in concert, Toronto CNE grandstand. Headliner was Psychedelic Furs, Simply Red and the Blow Monkees. Amazing concert and he was as good live. Great memories.❤️ Btw, Money too tight to mention. Another banger from same album.

Blow Monkees and Hipsway were one of my fave "blue-eyed" soul. I saw Hipsway in DC in the 80s at 9:30 club. You are the only person I have ever heard mentioning Blow Monkees. Loved them.....Money too tight to mention was my fave Simply Red song and video.

One of those slow dance songs for the end of the night at a club.

I’m stunned to keep witnessing the young Reaction People’s shock to find out that the singers to which they are listening to for the first time are White? We grew up hearing and loving them because they were great not knowing what color they were? Kudos to your mama for her exquisite taste in music and elated that you are able to feel what your mother felt! Rock on. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

The video begins in Whitby Abbey and St Mary Church and graveyard which was the location for Bram Stoker's novel Dracula.

Y'all my mama loved Mick Hucknall she said he had the the most soulful voice that she had ever heard because l have a cassette of simply red music I was playing. Of course I enjoyed introducing music I listen to in the 80s and early 90s as a teenager.

Smokie something....OMG you slay me 🤣. Smokie Robinson was one of the great smooth R&B singers ever. Back to Simply Red.....this is such a somber reflective song that just melts my worries away 🕊️💜
