  • We miss you Dan!

  • This songs makes me a little sad! And I don´t know why!

  • This is the only kind of music i listen to.

  • 20 people really love to listen bad songs...

  • thankful  ~

  • Dont see why everybody thinks its incredible that they listen to old music when there young? Of course you listen to it, its the greatest?

  • I love both versions. I sure miss Dan. R.I.P Buddy :-(

  • classic.... best clear version.. :)

  • Sorry Sandy...hard to believe that it was 36 years ago...and I said good bye....

  • he is handsome....

  • @trishfernandez9 What is your point?

  • pure talent ! enough said.

  • love this and remember when it came out.

    The lyrics are so sad---one can almost feel the pain and love someone has for someone who ditched them

  • Oh my god I love this unplugged version of his greatest hit. R.I.P my friend.

  • A wonderful song! Truly a masterpiece from God to Dan.

  • It's not country just because he's wearing a cowboy hat. It's more soul than country, when you look at the songwriting

  • best country ever!!!

  • This is beautiful. Thank you, Dan for singing it and sharing it. And thank you to whoever posted it.

  • I really enjoy this version of the song

  • My lovely ex-wife went to therapy with his wife. ;])

  • They really did a good job on the composition for this one.

  • What a great artist. RIP Dan Seals.

  • I love it!!

  • One of the purest voices country music has ever had.. RIP Dan..

  • not a country fan, but being a fan of his original version, this is good.

  • Lost the girl that this song should be played for.... life lessons I no longer drink and lord do I miss you..

  • @wdeatonjr give her a call true love forgives.

  • Beautiful rendition by the original Dan Seals. This song is probably your legacy Dan. RIP

  • I really like this version...and to find out just now that he left us in 2009...

    Rest In Peace, "England Dan" Thank you for your music!!

  • R.I.P Dan

  • It makes my sad when I hear that real talented people like dan die. Why don't all these drug addicts and scum bags DIE we pay there F*****G benefits,when they have nothing to live for. Yet all the hard working decent people in world get illnesses or diseases whilst the scum claim there benefits ,smoke their cigarets and drugs.

  • i really like his voice .. rip dan

  • I really miss your smile, Dan (R.I.P.).

  • That was beautiful.

  • I so loved Dan's music...thanks for the music Dan.

  • I like this version more than the original

  • @thundor007

    I agree with you!

  • one of my country music favorite..next to addicted..:)

  • you can't get much better than this

  • i really like this song eversince.........

  • whenever i hear ds song ......reminds me of u..

  • thank u for posting this...it's great to hear this version by dan.

  • One night on the New Hampshire boarder, in a parking lot beside a Tour Bus, I had the experience of meeting Dan Seals.

    I asked him if he would sign my guitar, He said sure and asked what kind of guitar it was. I told him it was an Ibanez, and he replied with a smile that, that’s’ a good guitar. I watched as he signed the guitar. I thanked him, and told it had been a great show, I then shook his hand.

    I knew that I had just met the only honest man that was walkin’ this here Earth.

  • @GearingDestroyer what a memory you have of him..priceless..rip dan your music will live on forever

  • It rained the day he recorded this in his cool ass home which muffled the acoustics, I'm willing to bet you weren't aware of that.

  • Rest in Peace Dan! I loved you like a father, thank you for your kindness!

  • One of my favourite childhood songs of all time. I remember when this was first released and this version is the best way it's ever been recorded!

  • THIS IS WHAT YOU CALL MUSIC, THIS IS REAL MUSIC. SCREW TODAY'S MUSIC, IT SUCKS. ANYONE AGREE?

  • @tshockley67 Is this your fave song, tshockley67? REPLY BACK. 

  • I can't believe he's gone! He's one of my favs!

  • @tshockley67 he died in 2008, tshockley67. By the way, this is MUSIC, not the crap today. REPLY BACK.

  • I like this version of the song. I don't like the music nowadays and I hate it. I'm 24 and music from the past is better than today's garbage. 70s/80s/90s and early 2000s (2000-2003) music CANNOT be beat. Anyone else agrees?

  • THIS IS MUSIC. THE CRAP TODAY ISN'T MUSIC. ANYONE AGREE?

  • At my age of 25, I never heard this type of music and it's incomparable to what we have today. I could feel the message and emotion deep within.

  • @cutesila25 Well today's music sucks now and I hate it, cutesila25. REPLY BACK.

  • @cutesila25 I agree with you 100%. REPLY BACK.

  • Beautiful, relaxing version of this song. Dan Seals (R.I.P.) did a fantastic job on both. A perfect song to dedicate to an ex if the breakup was cordial, or at least if you both have gotten over the pain of it.

  • Fantastic!! Better than the 70's original. It's the way my wife [who was my HS girlfriend] found each other again after more years than I want to mention. It was the premise of our meeting and non-anticipation of what might happen between us. What can I say, after decades of us being married to others, a miracle brought us back together! Fairytale... I think so. The lyrics say it all! We are now together.... forever... it seems like it was meant to be.

  • @octoolman My hubby & I were high school sweethearts too. We were married 30 wonderful years.After high school we went separate ways but reconnected after college. I thank God we did. He was the best thing that ever happened to me! Our love grew deeper each year. He collapsed w/ a heart attack one night after kissing me goodnight.We both said "I love you" for the last time. Like the song,I'd really love to see him tonight ...one day I will. I pray your years together are long & wonderful.

  • @awidowsheart when did you get married, awidowsheart? By the way this is REAL music. Not the crap they call "music" today. I only listen to 70s/80s/90s and early 2000s (2000-2003) music. I don't like the music nowadays, awidowsheart. If you agree with what I said, REPLY BACK.

  • RIP - I miss u

  • I fell in love listening to this song when it first came out but this is much better ( or maybe I just older) anyhow, I miss feeling the way this song makes me feel. And I am sad John is gone however, his music remains and that is how we knew him anyhow and always will

  • miss this kind of music :)

  • @kensuy I miss it too. REPLY BACK.

  • @kensuy I agree with you. REPLY BACK, kensuy.

  • How sad that he died,....

  • honestly i was born in 1986.. im 25 years old and i dont like the songs nowadays! full of noise and non sense...

  • @clodel26 agreed this is what you call MUSIC. NOT THE CRAP TODAY. I hate today's music. REPLY BACK.

  • @clodel26 I agree with you, clodel26. I also don't like the music of today. REPLY BACK, clodel26.

  • @clodel26 listen to love is the answer! one of his greatest!

  • @clodel26 You don't have to dis new music to say you like older country.  There is a lot of good new stuff too. Country of the 80s and 90s was amazing but turn your radio off and search for new country in other places.

  • @clodel26 me too and Im 16 :(

  • @clodel26 dan also not like u

  • @trishfernandez9 DONT YOU understand the right english? you dont know how to analyze messages eh? lol i said " idont like the music nowadays" coz its full of noise and non- sense... lol and so are you... non sense coz u dont understand what i meant... youre beautiful but you are such an idiot... sorry

  • @clodel26 YES YOU ARE PERFECT AND BITCH....OK STOP SAYING IDIOT FROM ME CAUSE U LOOK MORE IDIOT.....PROSTITUTE

  • @trishfernandez9 lol, who looks like more whore between the 2 of us? i got a decent clothes in my prof pic than yours showing your withered tits... lol well im not gonna answer u back... put whatever you want! nuts!

  • perfect! :)

  • Peace be with you Dan.

  • Oh thank you. This song reminds me of an ex.... not many songs say something so simply and so eloquently. If this was covered again, it would have HIT all over it (again!)

  • What a truly beautiful song, totally beautiful. RIP Dan Seal. They don't make them like they use to and you are proof of that :)

  • @MsKP2710

    Agree, MsKP. Check out David Gates - Hits Medley [totp2] for another old guy who wears a cowboy hat and has a voice as mellow as the day he wrote his first hit (which I'm sure you will recognize!)

  • @MsKP2710 nice comment..

  • Wish I could play half that great.

  • for all the years I've missed the person "I'd really love to see tonight"

    Thanks Dan.........maf

  • great song reminds me of some better times with some one i truely miss rip dan you was one of the best

  • rest in peace england dan.

  • This vid & version brings me to tears. Miss you Dan, Graci for all the music you gave us. Wolfsky9, 65 y/o

  • Wow made me cry

  • @97nagi me too 

  • WOW.

  •  I Love this Song,Thank you so much for posting it

  • @charliesitzes1973 hey dude, this is real music, right? REPLY BACK. I like old school music.

  • I'm glad I was born in 87 and grew up in the 90s where I experienced real music. Today's music is crap and I hate today's music, that's why I listen to 70s/80s/90s/early 00s (2000-2003) music here on YouTube. I'm just 24. We should avoid today's music nowadays. Anyone agree with me?

  • @kimv020887

    In all!

  • 15 blind dislikes...

  • @zhakto well zhakto this IS REAL MUSIC. Not the crap I hate today. REPLY BACK.

  • That's when you hear real singing: Just a guitar and his voice.

  • @martinbeco could not agree more.truly amazing

  • Just pure love and peace!

  • ok i really undersand what it means i love

    u dan seals for these love song....

  • Your great talent and voice are sorely missed.

  • R.I.P dan we wont forget you

  • this is SPARTA!

  • @OldiesandNewies94 4 sex? lmfao u fucking noob

  • The best rendition of this song. One of the best voices....

  • Dan you never lost that great voice through your whole career, and your musical skills only got better and better! Dan, you were truly a great singer/songwriter/musician! Love, BobbyK

  • Just amazing....Dan makes it better than the original...this is probably how it was actually written....and you can really tell how the tune is written about actual life events....So glad he left us with this wonderful version.

  • I love the song..

  • Great version of this song.I have never heard it before now and I love it.However I did not know that Dan Seals passed away.That is truly sad,I never knew.I really like a lot of the England Dan and John Ford Coley songs.But I also remember Dan Seals as Seals and Croft.Diamond Girl...you sure do shine......May you rest in peace Dan.

  • @thecoolestdad I believe I made a mistake.it was Jimmy Seals in Seals and Crofts which I believe is Dan's brother but even that I am not sure.So I correct myself about saying Dan Seals was the seals half of Seals and crofts.Sorry yall,it has been a long time ya know.

  • My first love called me as this song came on. I was 15 years old Alway reminds me of him

  • Of all the songs I have every heard in my life this song my favorite. It really is my love song

  • there was somethin about Dan that was very relaxing, might be his demeanor but i bet if you knew him in person he would have been a REAL FRIEND and not a socalled friend. RIP DAN you are missed by your fans

  • @JetBeetle How can you say he fucked this up? It's his song- He recorded the original.

  • @JetBeetle IT IS HIS SONG. He's the "England Dan" in England D and John Ford Coley. Check your facts before calling this guy a redneck. And show some respect. His legacy is his songs!

  • RIP Dan Seals.

  • what a beautiful version of this song.

  • @OldiesandNewies94 "Better to have loved and lost than to have never loved" "Love can't wait to give, but lust can't wait to get "--The best advice I could give a friend is "If someone has done you wrong ,or doesn't feel the same way you do, then keep looking for the person you can't stand to be without who can't stand to be without You". Love yourself and you will see how to love others 2. I met my wife ( 20 years ago now) and we have 6 children now . I wouldn't 'ave missed it 4 the world

  • I had no idea that he passed away! I am in total shock. I went to an Alabama concert several years ago and the only reason that I went was cause Dan was opening for them. I was in the front row. I will never forget his performance. I always wanted to get the chance to meet him. Guess I never will now. Rest in peace friend.

  • Comment removed

  • @OldiesandNewies94 Go out and git her. She's waiting for ya! If not, git yourself another one. Old wounds don't heal well but every girl out there offers unique features in their own sense. You will find one who may make you truly happy. You can't waste time looking back. Life is too short and you haven't experienced 1% of what it has to offer. Your old memories will offer sentimental value, with each second that ticks by, everything you do in life becomes memories in the next second.

  • Nice!! check my rendition.

  • I saw Dan at the Luther Burbank Center in Santa Rosa. . .two days after my "recently-ex" girlfriend got married to another guy. He was a great song-writer and singer, and probably a wonderful human being as well.

    Thank you, Dan, for the many songs from your heart.

    May you always feel the warm embrace of God.

  • @shortyhedrick yeah I agree.

  • come on people i love danand have for 35 years,but Taylor Swift is great too.she writes and plays from the heart in a style that compliment her age and times. anyone who knows much at all about Dan knows that if he were here today he would be a fan of Taylor

  • I love how people think this is country. This song was originally a love song from the seventies. It seriously has nothing to do with country. Good cover though!

  • @GTCrunch it is true this is a love song from the '70's it may however suprise you to know that the original artist was

    ' England Dan" Seals .thats right the same Dan Seals you have just seen and heard

  • Hot dogs, baseball, home made ice cream and Dan Seals music. Everything else is so mundane!

  • I'd Really Love To See You Tonight

  • touches your soul

  • i love everything about Mr. Dan Seals... Bren

  • excellent

    

  • Taylor Swift is crap....country today is crap....this is pure stuff....no shitty melody...just right out of the heart !!
