  • Hummm he's just being a perv.. haha

  • I love this song! 0.0

  • this song hits deep...to deep for fools.

  • This is one of my favprite songs of all time

  • Dis my jam, dude  delivers vocally. Tight song.

  • YEAH!!!

  • I have always loved this song. They need to play it on the radio more often.

  • ★★★★★

  • usher sampled this song on his new album its called makin love(into the night)

  • @thedancingenius uh nooo, there's just some songs you just can't make over. some songs, like this one, need to be left to the original artist. i don't think anyone could remake this song to sound this good unless they sounded just like Benny Mardones....

  • This is about young love...

    make of it what u will...

    my thoughts are can we love

    one another?? Can we??

    It will decide our destiny!!

  • This is what a real voice sounds like..

    Take it in...

  • How can u look beyond perfect??

    This is as good as it gets!!

    Love You Benny!!!!

  • I love this song,I was 7 years old when I first heard it,I was with my Mother at the time!!

  • Great song with awesome vocal work! A timeless classic.

    PS, For those making ignorant wise cracks about the statutory issue..., What were you thinking when YOU were 16?

    Think about it.

  • He sounds really constipated for the last 20 seconds or so

    Just kidding. Love this song.

  • lol at the end of the video should of been benny in handcuffs for fuckin a 16 yr old

  • Benny Mardones wrote this song about this sixteen year old girl who use to live in his building in Spanish Harlem. Her father walked out on the entire family, Benny felt sorry for her and paid her to walk his dog. One day, she came dressed up to go walk his dog and he said she was the most beautiful 16 year old he had ever seen. His friend said hey who's that. He told him, now she's just 16 years old, leave her alone, thus the song was born.

  • @BollywoodMEX5150 Is that true? Sounds made up.

  • my best friend's husband played drums on this.....patrick marchino........he went on to play with pat ravers and ted nugent.......i love this song

  • This song charted TWICE, thats how good it is! Lots of pure energy and sincere emotion...a winner!

  • Sorry about the typo on last post. I meant to type what an amazing voice! :)

  • This song is one of my all time favorites. I can not get enough of this song. This song captured my musical heart from the first time I heard it years ago! What an amazing music!

  • if i could hit those notes.. i would rock this mug at karaoke.. i think i will try it anyway..

  • I have never understrood the negative "Chester" comments about this wonderful song.

    Throughout the history of pop music there have been several references to young females (for example, Ringo Starr..."She's 16, she's beautiful, and she's mine") and yet Benny seems to get slammed about it.

    This song is about yearning, and pain, and wanting something forbidden.

    I was about 16 when this song came out and I think it captured all the complexities of romance that my young mind questioned.

    AWESOME!

  • I almost hate to even say this...but I have to. I'm a rock-based musician (drummer), married guy with kids, pushing 40...To this day, there are only 2 songs in HISTORY that have ever actually made me cry. This is one of them. (the second is a Christian song called 'Tell Them' by Andrae Crouch & the Disciples).

    I think I first heard it on 'Family Ties' 20+ years ago. Then lost it for about 10yrs. and rediscovered it. I didn't even know the performer's name. Just an incredible song.

  • its not wrong to say what you feel or what you think...i think it a great comment...im looking the other song "tell them"

    God bless u..

    this is my fav song.

  • One of the Best pop songs of all time...

    I love the lyric..I cant measure my love

    theres nothing to compare it to..absolutley awesome.....Incredible song....!

  • what an AWEING song+voice! Bennie still rocks, always will!!

  • I agree with sabella69. It's all about longing and what the hell is wrong with that?

  • If you can't land your helicopter..(the MedVac kind)..in that famous stadium...Or'in jus being ALLOWED to Waterski any lake!..His Voice As It's King...Better to Wanna Live It All Down, BENNIE!

  • bydawn ilove this song it takes me back when iwas ateenager in high school this song rocks icould listen to it over and overagain

  • I love this ballad. He's not talking about sexual or carnal feelings towards her. It's all romance, about the heart, and loving from afar. Sometimes that's enough. I've never got any 'yuck' feelings. It's a pure feeling and expression of devotion, longing, and wanting to rescue the person you care about from the ugliness.

  • Absolutely beautiful, PERFECT, comments. Thank you!

  • just perfect....

  • awsome song!

  • does anyone else NOT see the "high quality" option for this video??

  • by the way i agree with you wolf moon...

  • hey my girlfriends 14 and I'm 19, and we don't even talk about sex... of course i have to wait until she's ready to even talk about it before i even think about mentioning it. but you dont need sex to show someone that you love them... just getting hugs and an occational peck on the cheeck is ok with me cuz i'll still give her everything...

  • what the fuck your 19 and the best you can do is a 14 yr old????? DAMN!!!

  • yeah, god gave me a heart, and I intend to use it.

    besides. I'd rather use my heart instead of my dick.

  • This is one of the greatest rock power ballads EVER! Benny has an Amazing voice. And this song still sounds great. It charted in 1980 AND 1989. And I think it could chart today.

  • It sounds kinda different in a way. Still great song =]

  • just seen him literally 4 hours ago live! fireworks over central new york! with floyd factor! kick ass show awsome fireworks display! WOW!

  • love that voice...WOW..

  • This is a tight song !

  • Not even the sweetest candy can compare to the taste of a 16 year old ass!

  • lmao

  • i ment that as a negative not positive

  • I love this song!!!

  • into the night...tiene tanto sentimiento que se puede sentir en cada palabra..es hermosa y mas aun cuando la escuchas al lado de la persona que amas...asi sea un amor imposible"

  • I always loved this song,the ending is so powerful.

  • nice song but watta perv........

  • hes not a perv ya crack fuck! the 80s were different, people werent sick like they are now! anyways hes from my home town, hes like 40 now, and he still kicks ass!

  • I love this song!

  • grande benny y lo mejor de todo k su padre es chileno jajaj no lo sabian??el mejor tema de todos los tiempos

  • realmente precioso , sin palabras me trae muchos recuerdos

  • this is one of the most enduring songs in my heart... i'd really like to see an actual video or live performance of this song, but for now this takes me back to a hope-filled, innocent time in my life where i wished i was loved as passionately as that...

  • The words you used to describe this and its place in your life are absolutely perfect and they fit my ilfe, as well. I'm 52 now and there are memories I have that will be forever attached to this song. Here's to the "haunting" of the past and good memories!!!

  • In truth, outside of music and movies, does such passion as conveyed in these lyrics exist any more?

  • I wish I love my husband so much!!!!!!!!!!

  • I experienced a passion like this in my early 20s, and this very song was "our song," even though it was "oldie" then. There are times now, 20 years later, I wish I could feel that innocent and yet passionate again.

  • I love this song!! It's beautiful!

  • I remember hearing this song every morning getting ready for school. I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SONG. Funny - I never knew who sang it till about 12-13 years ago!!!

  • I've finally found a tune that can compete with Doo-Wop, the greatest sounding music to one's ear.

  • I think this song came out when i was a teenager in the late 70-s and then it came out again in the late 80-s?? is this true,,, and its still timeless even 30 years later..

  • Without a doubt...One of the GREATEST love songs ever written!!!

  • jumpygirl3

    Good song.

  • Jumpygirl3

    I remember this song. When my little sister was 12 she was in puppy love for the first and she played this song a million times, and i never got tired of it. Thanks for sending it.

  • Thanks for posting this beautiful song

  • Bmrocks59,

    My father grew up in the Syracuse region where Mardones has a huge following and he gave me a copy of the album, Never Run, Never Hide. The track "Mighta Been Love" and Dick Clark tribute, "American Bandstand" are my fav. tracks from NRNH.

    And yeah, he does sound a bit like Steve Perry but Benny Mardones has a raspier voice than Steve Perry.

  • I grew up in SYracuse NY too!!! this song was always playing in the 80's.

    Syracuse ALSO loved Steve Perry and journey!!

    but I really do not hear Perry in Benny except when he goes whoaoooo...just a bit there style is similar..

  • jumpygirl3 ..I have always loved this song. Thanks for sending it. I don't think he sounds like Steve Perry ....I actual hear more of Jeff Scott Soto in his voice...who I love very much also. ( you would have to be a fan to know what I'm talking about)

  • i don't know who steve perry is, must have meant to respond to dawnfaunt

  • Steve Perry was the lead singer to the band Journey.

  • he sings with feeling

    great singer

  • anyone realize how much he sounds like Steve Perry?

  • sounds a lot like steve perry i thought it was i unitl i saw clip of the song

  • What a voice... and what a song!!!

    Excellent sound on this upload.

  • bmrocks59 if you can I would love to have a copy of his Angel CD I can't find it!thank you very much

  • send me your address and i can send you a copy, it will be "burned" from my own CD, otherwise it's really hard to find

  • It's like having a dream where nobody has a heart

    It's like having it all and watching it fall apart

    And I would wait till the end of time for you

    And do it again, it's true

    I can't measure my love there's nothing to compare it to

    But I want you to know

  • Para mi es la cancion mas romantica de tdos los tiempos

  • estoy totalmente de acuerdo contigo, me gusta porque canta con mucho sentimiento y eso te lo trasmite....

  • I love his vocals. I remember when I first heard this, I thought he was black. His voice is so soulful. Love this song.

  • yeah i was convinced he was black too!!!

  • Nobody can scream like Benny....awesome voice!!

  • you should check out this album!! you'll really like it i'm sure... there are only a few of his albums out there still, but if you get your hands on one, grab it! i was fortunate enough to have someone burn some of his older stuff and he really is great!

  • Oh my God, those last few lines just rip my heart out! Seriously gives me chills. What an amazing voice. Have to listen to his other stuff.

  • i know, he is truly an amazing man, and in person, a real gentleman, love him to death! i'm sure anything you find for BEnny you will love, especially his "Angel" CD, which I believe is out of circulation but I do have 2 copies if you ever can't find it and want to hear it, i can send it to you...

  • you should listen to the last track on this album, amazing! it's called Run to You..

  • With or without a video this song Rocks the romantic world!

  • is there a video to this song?

  • this is the best sound quality so far for this song. he doesn't have a video for this song does he?  i don't like what they did to this song when they re-released it in 2001, i think. it ruined the passion and emotion in his voice and the instrumentation sounds too structured and not at all like the original which sounds raw like it should. it was my first love song with my first boyfried when i was 15. i think i had sex to this song too. ha ha thank you.

  • Amazing song indeed. He definately NAILED the vocals, alot of feel and emotion went into the singing of this song. This is the best audio to this song I have heard on this site. Could you do the same for "I Wish It Would Rain Down" by Phil Collins? heehee

  • Amazing song indeed. He definately NAILED the vocals, alot of feel and emotion went into the singing of this song. This is the best audio for this song I have heard on this site.

    Hmmm... Could you do the same work with "I Wish It Would Rain Down", by Phil Collins heehee

  • A classic.

  • Wow, thanks!

  • This song, defines the moments of the 80's, at least for me.

  • you can get this song in MP3 format. Just check the video details and you can find a link of the song.

  • I loved this song and now more... Gracias mil

  • IF you're lucky enough, you can still find this CD - i have 3 copies and will always treasure them....

  • whats it called and where can you find it?

    can you find it on ebay?

  • no official video to this song, but the album is the same as shown above (simply called Benny Mardones) and you probably can find it on ebay or another place I like is CD Universe, good prices and quick to deliver.
