Good on you 😊

What a great time

I’m hearing ya 69 model here! music has been such a big part of my life! Hard to imagine life without it! We were So spoiled! 🎉

William, do you know the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal savior?

John Waite is playing a concert this weekend in my town. Styx and Foreigner are also there.

Shes not the original voice you hear. She's lip synching

@@ChurchofZEPPELIN I thought exactly the same thing.

Hello I am so sorry if this sounds weirds but you wrote such a nice and wonderful comment on here and I like your comment. I can tell you're a very positive person. If it's okay with you I'd love to be friends..?

Man,this such a great vocal performance. Even when people think of "Missing You" which is such an iconic song.This is truly his greatest,in my opinion.

Absolutely John is very magical

Great vocals

Id like to hit on you too lol. PS. Its a great song! Life memories and so on....

Amen My Brother!!! God Bless!!

I feel the same way.... peace bro

Very well said! Thanks for saying it.

I am 19 years old, and I couldn't agree more. The music back then just had so much more depth and a better feel. it's emotional in another way

Yes brother i'm 59 going on 29 and at that age I had so much love for music and the lyrics , in my teens and early 20s I was just into partying and hard rock , geez I have also had a Great life thus far TY Lord God ! :)

Damn

Beautiful! You have those great memories.

Awesome

So sad sorry 😞

Such a beautiful song…sorry for your loss.

Im 64 and still love it.

Same here. I was born in '68, so i was pretty young then, but i clearly remember most of the things we did then. I even have a memory when i was only about 8 years old that took place at a bar/supper club. Some lady played the song "MAMA MIA" by ABBA constantly throughout the evening. I'm guessing i heard it 12 to 17 times that evening. I also had the hots for a waitress there who was 3 times my age.

@@bigsky3072 68 here too.. man what a amazing musical journey we had growing up.

@@sterlingarcher8441 yup! U know it bro!!!!

YOU ARE SOOOOOOOOOOO RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!

He's touring with Styx & Foreigner this summer and I'll definitely be there!!

I saw him late in 2023. He was perfection! Small venue, he sounded good and he interacted with the audience. Well worth my $50.

Saw him about 7 or 8 years ago and he crushed it. Saw him with the baby’s as well, he rocked like he was in his 20’s. He has held up well.

@@ric441I find it funny he is at the bottom of the bill. If I go to the show it is too see him. Foreigner is a cover band and saw them on the head games tour, so I don’t care about them. Styx I have never seen and it will be more of a novelty to see them.

I just saw Waite on Friday in Chicago and he was still awesome. He's still got it at 71!

And he still could 30 years later!

John 's the best . simply the best. Met him at a signing. and WHAT a voice a vocalist myself, i am simply in awe of the talent. I didnt know what to say when we ended up in front of this musical healer. Fortunately , he was so kind and did all the talking.

"one of the most extraordinary voices and song writers of the era".. I always thought that too.. but so underplayed..this just brings me right back

I agree with everyone here. What a fantastic talent in the 70's and 80's.

This is real music!

We sure did didn't we, please take us back to then & leave us👍✌️

Yes we did!! 🎶♥️

Yes...we were spoiled with such talent!!!!!

Heard this song in the supermarket yesterday, and sang along. We did have the best music ever!

We were spoiled by more then music .. just fun times always with friends cruising .. dancing Saturday nights at the clubs … just great friends .. mostly everyone got along … concerts

God bless 🙏🏿

I totally agree!! These kids these days just dont know what good music is

@ted ritola Hands down!

Yep the best!

I surely do agree.

100 %

I'm 57. The Babys were not one of my favorite groups, but this song was one of my faves. Over the years I have thought of this song here and there. Since I spend all my time thinking of my new GF, i deemed it apropos to send her a link to this video!

@@dngrwllrbnsn_ mate, you’ve heard isn’t it time I assume. Another great song.

@@shanewilson199 Oh hell yeah, Shane! I totally forgot that was by the Babys, and the song title didn't register. But when I pulled up the video, I knew the song after about two seconds of the opening piano music. So cool you mentioned this! I haven't heard that song in years and, yeah - it is another one of my faves from the mid 70's! Thanks, Dude!

I know that you miss her terribly. You will see her again. For you, the time will seem like an eternity. When she sees you ….to her, it will be like you were never apart. 🥰I lost my only son in 2010. He was very young. Our reverend told me that, and it’s always brought me comfort. Just knowing that we are the only ones that really suffer the sadness🙏to our loved ones they only miss us for seconds

Oh, but you did help her.. You loved her 🙌🫂💞 God bless you 🙏 💕💜💎💫✨️💎💎

🙏🙏🙏

😪 I am so sorry for the loss of your wife, may she rest in peace❤🙏🏼

I have unfortunately been with two loved ones at the moment you mention. In many ways, it’s the worst thing ever, but I have come to think of it as a blessing. It was painful for me, but I was there for a person who needed me.

Love the 60s and 70s. I'd go back and stay

My kids say I'm already living there, and they are embarrassed. At least my pants stay up.

Was lucky enough to grow then also and I totally agree.

I'm 61 ... it does the same for me too.

Hello I am so sorry if this sounds weirds but you wrote such a nice and wonderful comment on here and I like your comment. I can tell you're a very positive person. If it's okay with you I'd love to be friends..?

So sorry for your loss..💔..I just recently loss too, my uncle from cancer, what's the worst part is seeing my mother suffer that loss, she always has been more of a mother than sister..all we, or anyone can do, is pray to God, who makes all things, support from friends and family, do what you can to comfort immediate family members, in any way you can, every single bit counts. T.c. 💐Remember it's not forever, one day you will see all the loved ones again..🕊️🤍🙏.

True. Xm radio stations plays the same songs all week. Alot more needs to be playing

You are correct.

It pops up here in Iowa once in awhile, but damn not enough I say!

Cain actually wasn't in the band yet for this song / album.

@@nexpose1 I believe he was and then went with Journey

@@LynnNelson . There may have been some overlap with JC’s activity between albums, but research shows him to have been an official Baby’s member in 1979 and he left them in 1980, joining Journey. He is reported to have been on the Union Jacks and On the Edge albums. If you read his Wikipedia bio, he is an absolutely fascinating individual. He survived a tragic school fire as an eight year old ( 92 students and 3 nuns perished). He certainly is the full on part of the magic of Bad English though…Such talented and good people! Be well and all the best to you! Shawn

@@FIGGY65 I totally agree with you. I saw them with Journey in Concert in 1979. He wasn't with Journey yet. He is very amazing and talented. Head First, one of the few albums I loved every song. You are probably right.

@@LynnNelson . You’ve got some great memories from that Lynn !

with u

There was plenty of profanity in 80's music. You just didn't hear it on the car radio. And, it was in better taste. Van Halen, "Ain't Talkin Bout Love" "Got no time to fuck around"!

Okay but it was 79 :)

Ain't that the truth!

I laugh everytime i look, memories come pouring out.ill be 67 in dece.

Makes me feel young on the inside, when I hear these songs. At 60 years old now, I appreciate true musicianship like this. ♪ ♫ Live musicians are undervalued anymore, just plug in the computer and GO ! Give me memories, not data.

Just turned 56... ain't that the truth... what the hell!

Nearly 74 yo now. Wonder where the years go but have lived, loved and laughed my way thru every one of them. Man what a life. And music like this featured through all of it. Greetings from beautiful Burleigh Heads, jewel of the Gold Coast, Qld., Australia. Come see us over here.

I'm 73 and this song still hits me hard ...

It’s snowing non-stop ... -1 degree this 15th February 2021. Laying under the covers together...still. Decades later. Celebrating, Unflinching love has been our greatest tribute to each other. Spending everyday today since 1995. Remember the winter of 1994? That was our season. We made the decision to build a legacy partnership, not just a marriage. The best is yet to come. God Speed People.

True Heather. Its unfortunate some younger people don't have that appreciation. Thanks for letting us know, you enjoy it.

You have an ancient heart and that is a good thing.

My teenage nephew & niece love his song "Missing You" and are statring to discover the musical gems of the 1970s & 80s

Heather Fletcher , I lived it. I remember hearing this on the radio that year. Every song brings back memories of what I was doing, where I was and who was with me at the time. I was 15 when this song came out on the radio and I loved it.

You tell them

So true. Makes me think of being 11 again & having most of my life ahead of me! There were some truly phenomenal songs in that decade as there were in the 90's.

Exactly! We had the real music.

A Beautiful time

I thought the same thing. It was hard to hold them back. 😪🤧

@@jimogrady1131 Aww, me too😭God bless.

I agree this song makes me emotional as well. But I wonder why. I guess it does have a basic sadness in the key/chords. Lost love? I don't really think about the lyrics at all when I hear it. It's a very hopeful and uplifting song, not sad at all... but maybe just the intensity of the emotion catapults us back to our youth when it was being played... amazing how that works.

Agreed!

@@brianperry4713 Thanks for the words, Brian. Sincere, kind words of sympathy (hopefully not empathy, though) help ease the pain quite a bit - more than you can imagine. I just miss Scottie so much. He had such a difficult life, and he just kept on going. Spend as MUCH time with your siblings as possible. Then go spend a little MORE time with them. Even just sitting around, watching TV, eating a snack. Anything. I cannot imagine ANYTHING worth more than that. PLEASE go see your siblings as soon as you can. I would give everything up, just to have some more time with my little brother. Losing a sibling is the family loss that is most often overlooked. This type of loss is one of the most painful there is. Your sibling is your partner for your entire lives. Until they are no longer with us.

You said it baby he certainly knocked outta the park

I have no idea what happened. Music made sense and had meaning.

There were so many good artists they wanted to be good. Also a loss of innocence makes it much harder to be inspired. I guess that’s all we’ll ever get.

What happen was today they lost the know how, to make music. Its a different sound back then. Todays music doesn't pass for music, its all noise. back then had heart and soul Today its about computer rigged autotune bull shit.Today its about money, looks, and fame, with no talent.
