  • The most badass love song that there ever was

  • klassik

  • There's a girl I like named Amanda, and I accidentally switched the lyrics to "I wanna take you by the thighs and make you realize, Amanda".  Talk about Freudian slip.

  • I named my daughter after this song

    

  • Looking for Amanda 5/18/76 Hialeah, Florida Your Father and I Miss you very much and always have. MOM & DAD

  • My name is Amanda. Nice to meet you. This song was dedicated me by radio editor 5 years ago, when I was 14. I hope, that someday someone will singing this song for me. :) 

  • My dad used to sing this to me when i was little..I miss him, R.I.P Daddy<333

  • I was named after this song. When my dad was in the milertary he would sing this to my mom every chance he got to talk to her on the phone. I don't want to seem heartless or anything, but I don't like this song...

  • In a way this song kind of sounds like Elton John's Sugar Bear if you listen closely to the background music

  • @gbfansean I was thinking the same thing!

  • @gbfansean You are so right.

  • @gbfansean i thought the same thing!

  • I found this song in this page that says was the number one in the day I was born lol.

    Good song :D

  • @Gabriellandon You and I are the exact same age then.

  • @SquirrelOfTime Excelent!!! :D

  • Nice song for slow dancing. One of the last songs that Boston actually did well.

  • My girlfriend told me about this song. She is named Amanda and her dad would sing it too her before he was killed in a car accident when she was 2. She has had a really bad life, but I have been helping make it a lot better.

  • @JacobG19 God Bless You!

  • @JacobG19 This comment should be the BEST comment in the history of youtube and you have liked it only 3 times??? Let me see your hands up!!!

  • @JacobG19 I'm real proud a ya.

  • @JacobG19 cool story bro

  • @shadowofthenighthawk not a story.

  • @JacobG19 cool story bra....

  • @JacobG19 Even if it's real, it's still a story; factual stories are still stories nonetheless. I just know so many people take the word out of context.

  • This is going to be my wedding song, my parents named me Amanda because they loved this song so much :)

  • I'm pretty sure I was named after this song eventhough I was born in Nov 1989. They were proabably planing me in 86' over my older brothers tricylce or something.

  • 1986 ako,is this true?

  • @vizcayno22 '86 din ako...November. This is the number one song when I was born according to an fb app..

  • @mamacitachingona, Boston is throwing me a party! So you might as well too. (:

  • voy a tomarte por sorpres no puedo esperar otro dia amanda ... excelente man magnifico cant believe such a beatiful lirycs dawg!

  • Hi Jeff , I am really SORRY to hear that your Daughter Amanda passed away, as I am a father too, not to lose the love ones, that's why I loves my daughter ANNABELLE very much. Please be strong and don't weep but keep it in your heart !

  • My name is Amanda! :D

  • @MandiPookins soo.. what you want me 2 do ,, throw a party or what .. just kiddin

  • This song is so magic, great guitars and voices

  • The best Amanda is the one who lives with me and was born in 1986, the year this song was on the top xD

  • my father named me after this song <3

  • @Ragingbull2525 Hasn't*

  • @L0vem31 That's very sad what you wrote. I think you sould talk to him and say do you think about that. your father haven't forgotten you.then he wouldn't be a real man. Sorry for my bad english, I'm from Poland.

  • im a recovering victim of aggravated sexual assault and im celebrating my breakthrough with a good oldie and a shit load of uppers :) life is fucking GOOD ! :) :) :)

  • Este tema lo estuve buscando hace mucho, excelente canción!!!, SALUDOS DESDE PERU.

  • Can't remember if I love this song because of my girlfriend or love my girlfriend because of this song haha they're both pretty awesome :)

  • RIP Brad

  • 波士頓....................讚!!!

  • @TrueRockNRollPower Hug your child as hard as you can and let him know you will never leave him..

  • that he feels or felt something at some point. confusing cuz he worked\works in the airforce and has since before i was born. I like to believe he feels like the awful piece of shit he is\was. however unlikely i hope he feels sorrow for that every damn day. i dont even hate him anymore....i feel nothing for him or towards him. i look at my 5 yr old Sebastian and i could never imagine leaving.I KNEW I SHOULDNT HAVE LISTENED TO THAT SONG

  • Well the story goes..as my mama says that when I was 2 that blah blah blah long story but basically my dad sang this to me when my mom and I were on the greyhound leaving..and then i never saw him again. talked to him once on the phone when i was 8 or 10, my mom and her friend tracked him down but he didnt bother to keep in touch. my whole life my mamas been a liar and honestly i dont trust a thing she says cuz even by then i knew better but I CHOOSE to believe this story cuz i have to believe

  • @TheOneAmnd that sucks keep believin

  • good

    

  • jeffreynew802: I am sorry for your loss. I have a 14-year old and can't imagine my life without him. I hope you hold on to every memory of your daughter and believe they will live with you forever.

  • Him leaving says more about him than you. It's hard not to take personally. When my mom died when I was three, my dad met a younger woman a few months later whom didn't want to take on the responsibility of my brother and I so off to foster care we went and they separated us at ages 5 and 7. It still affects me today.

  • Hehehehe This is my first time hearing this, and im 12 years old. I usually listen to mainstream >:[] But this is an exception for me :]

  • This used to be my song when I was younger <3

  • @ L0vem31: An ex- girlfriend left with my little princess 13 years ago and I have not found them yet. But I keep looking. Now to your Father. I'm willing to bet that he has never ever forgotten you at all. I'm not sure of the circumstances of why he left but I'm willing to bet that he thinks of you daily. Find him and talk to him. If I knew where my "Little Princess" is I would go right now to her. I wish you well and go find your Father.

  • Now my new favorite song.

    R O C K O N B O S T O N ! !

  • great song. One of my 80s favourites

  • Please take care of yourself and forget about your dumbass daddy

  • my fiancee just dedicated this song to me!:)

  • @armyfiancee00 Congratulations! Good luck with the wedding

  • @Bucsfan818 thank you so much:)

  • i cant listen to this song enough. I love you Mandy and I miss you. why did you have to leave this Earth?

  • My daughters name was Amanda, She was 15 years old when she passed away.

  • @jeffreynew802 So sorry friend. I'm sure she is waiting for you with a smile.

  • @jeffreynew802

  • @intensesexyshawn I guess that can be a reason to like the song as well.

  • I want someone to sing this song to me. Please? lol.

    PS: My name is Amanda.

  • Ah! Oh my God I used to love this song way back in the 80's when i was a young girl! This is a song from my youth!

  • ilove that song!!!!!amanda

  • hi to people

  • I am named after this song and i Iove it

  • Amanda: feminine form of Amandus, meaning "worthy of love".

  • Thank you for posting this in great quality.

    My future wife is named Amanda.

    The timing is perfect.

  • my daddy named me after this song. in a letter he wrote me when i was a baby when he was in the army he said i would always be his princess... but he dipped out on me and now i never see him cuz his new family is more important to him now. i still always cry thinking about what i did wrong to make him leave me and my brothers and sister...

  • @L0vem31 Sad story.

    the more i read it, the sadder it gets.

    I am very sorry, but one thing you do have to remember is that it's definitely, 100% NOT your fault.

    I mean, how can it be? he didn't even get to know you.

    One way or another, I hope that everything will work out for you.

    ..Take Care

  • @L0vem31 it was not ur falt he left.u are still a princess if he said so nothing can change the past

  • @L0vem31 aw... dam! you are still special...

  • @L0vem31 i'll be there for you!

    it's not you're fault.

  • @L0vem31 I'm sorry to read this. Forgiveness is the only way to free yourself from this pain. Divorce and remarriage is never easy for anyone. I'm sure your dad has a lot of guilt in his heart. God bless you and I hope it gets better!!

  • I'm so sorry, sweetie. But it's not your fault that he bailed. It was just life happening and you were a casualty.

  • @L0vem31 it's not your fault. i'm real sorry.hope things turn out better.

  • @L0vem31 sweetheart you did nothing wrong at all, sometimes grownups do things that children don't understand, I think he is being unfair to you but I am sure that you are still his princess and that he loves you very much. And I want you to know that God loves you very much.

  • @L0vem31 sorry but your dad is not a real man then sorry

  • @L0vem31 From what I've read of that comment, it seems that there was nothing that you did wrong to cause your dad to start another family. That's just not right. Sad Story, Good on you for sharing it. Thanks!

  • @L0vem31 just read the comments and I'd just like to add it was nothing you did. It's very sad. I'm writing from Great Britain. I was just racking my brains to think of some good amercian rock.

  • @L0vem31 I hear ya, same sad story with me. please dont cry, he isnt worth it. i learned that years ago. i am 36 yrs old. i hurts sometimes but you just need to live your life girl. plz take care.

  • @L0vem31 My dad did the same thing. Sadly, now my daughter is going through it, too. It took me 41 years to find my dad. Now that I've talked to him, I finally realize it was all him. He was young and stupid and he knows it. I still love him, though. Hang in there, honey!

  • @L0vem31 i was almost named after this song lol

  • @L0vem31 Just be glad he skeeted you out before he went to do other things.

  • @egraseidannogew ahhahahhaha you dick

  • @L0vem31 You didn't do anything wrong your dad has to answer this question.

  • @vpecoreno Amanda always feel free to email me at vpecoreno@comcast.net!

  • @ayycatchem hahaha awesome comment

  • this song rocks I love it. :)

  • with a name like Amanda you must be an angel!!!

  • my name is amanda!!:D

  • @goaliestud32 - First of all I wanted to tell you that it was completely unwarranted for you to call @babagannush a "fuck face" for using the word "loss" in him giving me kind words of condolences concerning the death of my daughter. I have reflected over the choice of the word "LOSS". Yes, it is most definitely a "loss" I have suffered at least while I am still alive in this world, concerning my precious 23 yr. old daughter. Not being able to see, hear, or touch my daughter is a huge "LOSS"

  • @babagannush - I wanted to thank YOU for your kindness and thoughtful words. It's because of people like you that show there is true heartfelt kindness left in this world. (The previous message I posted was meant for you) God Bless you.  Delana

  • @goaliestud32 Thank you so very much for you kind words and thoughtful words.  God Bless you.

  • I love this song. I was named after it!!!!!!!

  • if you heard the remix to this song (miranda) on star 105.7 radio station like this comment :))

  • Eine der schönsten Balladen, super Sound, super Band.

  • PAGE 4. (still @goalieSTUD32), I am INTENTLY going to be thinking about the word "Loss" when I have to attend the funeral or speak to someone that has had to experience the death of a loved one. Is Amanda "Lost"? Hell no! She will forever live in my heart and soul and even through me she will still be present. I want to thank each and every one of you for your loving, kind and thoughtful words. It means the world to me that complete strangers reach out with such sincere kindness and love ♥

  • PAGE 3. I'm not sure exactly what is the "correct" word to use for not being able to experience those things about her. Are those things a "Loss"??? I go outside every night and look up at the same bright star and talk to her. I can see the star moving around a bit. I see the aura surrounding her star. She is letting me know that she is okay. She's happy. The pain and sorrow she suffered is gone. She is with friends and family that have passed on as well.

  • PAGE 2 OF 2. In fact I was out in the garage today cleaning things up and I came upon many things of her (pics, cards she wrote to me, school projects, etc.) It touched my heart so much to find those things and "re-live" the memories. I know she is in a far much better place than we can even imagine. What breaks my heart the most in knowing that while I'm still alive, I will never get to see her come through the front door, feel her touch, hug her or hear her voice again.

  • @goalieSTUD32 - I thank you for your comment, it is really going to have me thinking intently about the word "loss". Yes, of course she will ALWAYS be in my heart, my soul and mind for all the remaining days that I am living and breathing here on this earth. I have never said "goodbye" to her since she has passed on. I ALWAYS say, "Until I see you again". Having to bury a child is the absolute worst possible events in a persons life that anyone person should have to experience. PAGE 1 OF 2

  • I’m deeply sorry for your loss

  • @babagannush hey dumbass read my words she hisn't lost fuck face

  • loss loss loss she isn't loss, she will aways be there from thick and thin. she just toke a different path that we should all take. she will and never be loss, she will be in your familys heart and the lives she touch. so never say srry 4 your loss, she isn't loss

  • i was named after this song...just like many other people apparently lol :)

  • Wonderful song

  • Feel sad for your loss. God give you strength!!

  • y do bad things happen to good people???

  • My names amanda too. Sorry for your loss...

  • @VelvetViolator Thank you for your thoughts and lovely words of kindness. I'm trying really hard to find inner strength. I must find some inner sense to get me through this, however, it's buried so deep, it's hard to find most times......Love from America

  • @blakkkslime666 - Thank you and God Bless you as your words are so very touching to my heart and soul.

  • @OfficiallyStelzer - I ran out of room below. My email: delana.guth@yahoo.com

  • @OfficiallyStelzer Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful story with me. I would love to see a picture of you as what you said to me sounds like something "my precious Amanda" would say from her heart to someone who's feeling the same situation as I am. Thank you Amanda you and your father are a true blessing to me. My Amanda lost her father when she was 11 yrs. old. So I know she is in heaven with him and he probably was singing this song to her as she entering Home to Heaven.

  • my name is amanda too after this song and the song by waylon jennings sorry about you loss.

  • @madtownband I looked into it, it was really hard to find but you're right.
