My wife walked down the aisle to this song.a special and beautiful song.

Mum died last week, she was old and tired, loved this❤😢

I keep coming back to this song as it’s perfect. The video adds an excellent visual accompaniment. Richard Hawleys finest work.

This is such a beautiful song. They always say "They don't make em like that anymore" but in this case, they have!

There are not enough words to describe this wonderful song ,well done Richard

Love is so hard to find And even harder to define

This guy has got to be Britain's best singer song writer in recent years.

This song resonates so much more when you're in love. I have now revisited this song after 13 years and two children later! I would say it had more depth the first time around. It remains one of my all-time favourites

Smooth as silk....This guy has that gift that just grabs ya heart and soul.....Very rare talent....love it.

What an amazing piece of music - lyrics are stunning and the music is gorgeous.

I've put this on my fb page and it didn't a like. I was astonished. 1st time I heard I had to stop my car and listen . And I always love listening to this song. #masterpiece

Such a beautiful song gorgeous words perfect voice

This song is just beautiful. The added film clip combination is just absolutely amazing. I get it! To the editor; Thank you ❤️

How the f**k can 36 people give a thumbs down to this beautiful beautiful song?

In this video there is all I love. First of all Richard Hawley. After Woody Allen, Les quatre-cents coups, La strada... Very good, really, it is a very beautiful work!

a classic that will out live all off us

BRILLIANT...God this song just haunt’s me I cant stop playing it ahhhhhhhhhhhhh

This crescendo kills me everytime - again and again....

I have man love for Mr Hawley lol,another gorgeous song by the man.Have watched this video many times,you did a wonderful job.

A genuine labour of love for all the lovers out there.

This has an incredible hook....i find myself singing it all day

For siobhan well you really sent your love to her dude. Big time.

Beautiful song beautiful voice

That Ending from The Searchers with John Wayne gets me everytime. It's so deep in its meaning that only the True of Heart will understand.

Some of the best editing to a song i've seen on utube. Epic, absolutely epic. Well done.

Got me through a rough snowy patch back in Valley City, North Dakota 2011, with a broken ankle listening to Mr. Hawley. Great memories now in 2021 healthy in sunny Los Angles, California.

Fantastic piece of music, fantastic voice.......

Absolutely wonderful 👏

I bloody love this song

Stunningly beautiful!

Cold feet! What a perfect wonderful song, great choice 👍👍👍👍

An amazing video - it fits the music so well! Just brilliant! I love the song so much in it's own right - but with this video, I just seem to love it so much more!!

You just made a 38 year old man fill up, lovely vid to a beautiful song. Five stars and faved

That Dustin Hoffman and Katherine Ross scene always brings a tear to my eye.... Damn you Richard!

Nostálgica....hermosa melodía ¡¡¡

This, along with Marvin Gaye's Distant Lover, is the apotheosis of love songs.

this song reminds me of my sister who sadly passed to the other side she is fine though shes only a whisper away

If I've had a crap day I log on to youtube and watch both these videos and everything seems fine again......keep working your magic! And thank you again! :-) PS. Does anyone know if R.Hawley has watched these vids?

Gorgeous song

Adrian Dunbar recently covered this on the short series Ridley. Lovely music.

Great song, and a great video for a beautiful song

addicted to it. thanks

Essa musica é uma das composições mais lindas do Richard Hawley, ex integrante das bandas de britpop "Longpips" e "Pulp". O video é composto por várias cenas cinematograficas de filmes de diversas épocas diferentes mas que tem tudo a ver com o titulo "open up your door". A mescla é composta de pedaços dos fimes "A Primeira Noite de um Homem" de 1967, dirigido por Mike Nichols com Dustin Hoffman, Katherine Ross e Anne Bancroft (detalhe na cena final do filme no sorriso de Dustin Hoffman ao 1'32"). Hoffman, novinho, se encanta por uma mulher mais velha (Bancroft), mas acaba se relacionando com sua filha (Ross) e a partir daí temos talvez o 1°filme de Hollywood que mostra uma situação que depois oassaria a aparecer em outros filmes. (é bom lembrar que estamos no auge da geração sexo, drogas e rock & roll). A cena de Bancroft desenrolando e tirando a meia-calça com o olhar indefeso e curioso de Hoffman(a famosa frase que ele diz "Mrs.Robinson , você esta tentando me seduzir!", é uma das grandes do cinema e elevou Hoffman a categoria de ator de 1a grandeza. Temos tambem "Manhattan " de Woody Allen, de 1979, um dos seus melhores filmes, protagonizado por ele e por Mariel Hemingway, onde ele faz o papel do escritor de meia-idade que se apaixona por uma jovem de 17 anos e é correspondido mas outras situações levam a um desenlace triste. Em "A Estrada da Vida" de 1954, dirigido por Federico Fellini, , temos a dupla Anthony Quinn e Giulietta Masina, onde Quinn é estrela de um número onde arrebenta correntes amarradas no seu corpo e Giulietta Masina, que foi vendida por sua mãe para Quinn, homem rude e violento. Detalhe, Massina foi esposa de Fellini. Ainda vemos o clássico de John Ford, "Rastros de ódio", de 1956 com John Wayne que mostra pela 1a. vez os índios não sendo os vilões dos filmes de cowboys e a clássica cena final da porta se fechando com Wayne ao fundo. Tudo isso misturado nesse belissimo video que merece ser visto dezenas de vezes, onde a música tocará os corações apaixonados, afinal como diz a letra "love is so hard to find, and even harder to define".

Lovelyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy !!!

Wonderful song and singer, awesome voice. 👍👋👍

I think best song writer ever

This for me just takes all the hate out of the world, thanks Captain!

5 stars love it..........

Just watched Richard live in Belfast tonight......but he didn't play this one!!! But the show was brilliant anyways.

Absolutely magnificent 👌

Just beautiful...

All this and a link to Joni Mitchell. I call these moments of genius. Richard is among those. Joni goes without saying.

Will be played in the golden elevators in Heaven, I hope to be traped in these Utopian lifts FOREVER.

This is a great video :) love this song
