  • I wish he would just punch that news anchor in the face..

  • Get Alex Call's book "867-5309/Jenny- The Song That Saved Me" on Amazon. This will teach you what really happened and how the song came to be. The story here is incorrect but let's not let the truth get in the way of a good story!

  • @kdrew How do we know Alex isn't lying and Tommy telling the truth? Answer: We don't.

    I'm not saying Alex IS lying. I'm saying we have more than one story, from people who were there, and we simply don't know which is correct.

  • It's funny because he's not listed as one of the songwriters on this song. The lead guitarist(Jim Keller) and a dude named Alex Call wrote the song. Tommy Heath isn't listed as one of the songwriters anywhere. But since it was their only hit I am sure he likes to take credit for it.

  • @Shanedango32 Actually, if you listen to what he actually says in the video, he didn't take credit for writing the song. He said his lead guitarist wrote it.

  • Man, this news reporter is so fucking annoying. Ruins the whole vid (((

  • I saw these numbers at Duke Nukem, easter egg o_O

  • Then and now.. but this one hit wonder is still a hit.

    Back in 1982, it was just another chart-topper.

    In his more mature years, he sounds alot like more Springsteen.

    Well done.

    Thank you for sharing.

  • is the host kurt warner? lol

  • Hmm. Missed this one, WMG, you bunch of fucks.

  • ♫»»-»♫-Jenny♫»»-»♫-Jenny Ty,

  • A friend has my local 867-5309. Call it!!!!

  • I had a great time playing this song live: back in the 80's! Everyone in the Bar would get up and dance to it!

  • Badass!

  • all that money in the 80's and still no braces

  • Tommy Tutone looks just like Jimmy Buffett!

  • Great tune. The acoustic version is sweet.

  • His voice is still the same sorta :)

  • This band... definitely on my list of Desert Island Discs. Tommy Tutone I and II... must haves in any serious R&R collection.

  • I thought it was pretty good!

  • Great song but should not play acoustic and with that particular back vocals guy! He is bad!

  • @YouBDub did you listen to his voice? way better then tommy heath

  • ...it all adds up to 38..which adds up to 11..which in numerology means rebirth!

  • @OlymPigs2010 Or the number Spinal Taps amplifiers go up to.

  • @OlymPigs2010 It shouldn't add up to 11, it should add up to 2 which means balance in numerology.

  • That host is such an arrogant douchebag... Great song though.

  • Is he so old that he had to play an acoustic version? WTF?!

    Jenny is one of those songs that under any circumstance should NOT be played acoustically.

  • @XFS540 Why not? It sounded pretty fucking cool here.

  • Sounds Great To Me!!30yrs.After..kittywoman 5309!!Loved it!!!!.....the host was a bit of a wanker!lol!!

  • I know there is a God because there is Tommy Tutone.

  • 4:10- 4:20.....the host DESTROYS the song.

  • Who thinks "Tommy" was blazing like I was?

  • He's still gold, and what did you expect? He performed this song over 28 years ago, and many good old school 80's performers that are still around today can still pull it off in redoing their iconic hits. A lesson to the so-called "in- crowd" Pop/Rap stars nowadays in who has the most staying power in a hit that will last a lifetime...

  • When the song first came on I thought, my God, WHAT HAPPENED TO HIS VOICE!?!?!?!? Thank God it was just the host.

  • 'That's a lot of numbers.  I'm done.' in the info section made me laugh.

  • what's the area code?

  • That host is annoying and made the intro and ending unbearable. Still, it wasn't enough to ruin Tommy's beautiful mellowed-out rendition of a classic '80s tune.

  • u can hv my number too...

  • I found the video sad too! ;(

  • where!?

  • anyone know the area code??

  • 707-867-5309

  • nice!!!!!!1@^2

    i think i may just have to call and ask for jenny

  • Antigonish in canada

  • A classic and a joy forever.

  • Good song, great video.

  • This is nice, but it sounds so much better on the electric guitar.

  • i like the acoustic guitar version...but the slower tempos make me realize the effects of lifes aging lol...but seriously though good job tommy ;)

  • I still love him! Got to see him in at The Club in Monterey in the 80's....I was happy to hear that he was as good live as his recordings. He liked my dress : )....but he didn't ask me for my number : (

  • i love this song :)

  • After watching the original video of them live ... this is sad. The man cannot sing any more. A reat pop song done by the original guy who doesn't have it any more...

  • still cool,no.1

  • Ahh, TV newsman douchebaggery, don't you love it? If anyone can ruin a great, live TV moment, it's a TV newsman douchebag! Where do they find these Cretans?

  • Former jocks.

  • i hate when the video is ahead of the sound

  • Go Larry lol

  • I hate when the audio is WAAAAAAAAAAY ahead of the video....pisses me off...

  • Wow... I dunno, I like the acoustic version... I dunno how old that dude is, so I can't really judge his singing. Not to bad, though, by any standards.

  • This guy can hardly sing anymore...

  • i know tommy tutone

  • Whats his real name then?

  • Age will not weary them............

  • you cant say you have not tried to call 867 5309

  • Guilty

  • it was the police cheif's daughter's number when they wrote it and her name really was jenny kinda funny cause usually people got a call back from the police cheif in new york. lol

  • All the slutty chicks get that number so they can get more business.

  • News People are such JACKASSES! I haven't seen a cool one yet.

  • lmao

  • This is a nice acoustic version.

  • Wow! My favorite song. Gotta ask though, does he have cancer or is he on 15 different kinds of illegal drugs? By the looks of the dark glasses, I bet I can guess its the latter.

  • And I bet you soak in every ad council commercial as the gospel truth you jackass

  • They've still got it!! Th '80's live on!!!!!!!!

  • 1. Take a deep breath

    2. Think about the one you love

    3. Press ''F10'' 5 time

    4. Send it to 5 video on youtube

    5. Look at your background

  • I love this song, but this is just terrible. I don't know how anyone can say this was good! He doesn't even play the riff correctly, and the backup singer isn't singing the proper harmonies. It's too slow, weak, and lifeless. Just completely butchered! Sorry to offend anyone, but I think he needs to give it up. It's just sad to see this, although I'm sure he's a nice guy. The original recording is still and always will be a great song, however.

  • wait till you are middle aged - and told to give it up.

    The record will always exist.

    It aint easy being a one hit wonder

  • You ever play live? There's a lot of good and a lot of bad days. It's never always the same, performance wise that is.

  • wow theyre still goin......... this is an awesome song.

  • wow he changed

  • It's called AGING and it stinks.

  • 8-6-7-5-3-0-niee-iieeee-nine

  • that is sexy.

  • he still has that goofy smile.

  • look at that dumbass dancing the duck dance in the beggining LOL

  • Tom is a good guy!

  • Tom has always been a great guy and a class act.

  • still sounds good with just guitar but needs drums and bass and crap

  • You're an idiot, sawsmofo.

  • great song

  • Tommy sounds good but I'd rather have the video & we would if it wasn't for those morons at WMG.

  • the phone number was sold for 186.000$ on ebay!

  • @Poqwiuerz That is amazing!

  • @Poqwiuerz many people agree with you, but even you know the real price was "a buck three ninty eight ! ! !"

  • @Poqwiuerz because it had been changed to 1800-867-5309 O_O and ask for jenny......

  • He sounds good, i think it sounds pretty damn nice like this.

  • eh, original was much better. This sounds depressing

  • @Kmac5897 i like it too

  • I like how he starts to laugh as he says "I'd tried to call"

  • ok if youve havent heard him sing all the small things dont go listen to it he butchered the song and ruined it completely im warning you dont listen to his cover of that song

  • me and him have the same guitar
