  • 16 in the clip and one in the hole nate dogg is about to make some bodies turn cold...

  • strong.

  • hell of a song my fav I think by him

  • This should settle this argument.

    "I Keep Forgettin' (Every Time You're Near)" (also known as "I Keep Forgettin'") is a 1982 popular song written by Michael McDonald and Ed Sanford. Its similarity to the earlier song "I Keep Forgettin'", by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, resulted in Leiber and Stoller also being given a songwriting credit.

  • I love this Shit

  • I just replayed this song like 20 times..

  • 16 in the clip and one in the hole

  • Amazing

  • one of my favorite songs of him. He was very good looking when he was younger.

  • God!! what a handsome man!! ;) love ya, Michael!

  • who are the back up singers ?

  • 80s blue-eyed soul at its finest.

  • this was a smooth video when it dropped. it was a smooth track. for real

  • No shit...doesnt get any better than this.

    Makes you wanna want to break out the Cognac and ciagrs and shit.

  • way to go regurgitate wikipedia Roger

  • Yeah. Ending that goofy argument was that easy.

  • the war begins!

  • Leiber and Stoller wrote a song called "I Keep Forgettin'" which was recorded by Chuck Jackson in the '60s. The similarity between the two songs was so notable the L & S were given writing credits on the McDonald tune. In fact in response to the popularity of this song in the '80s Ringo Starr and David Bowie covered the original on their '83 and '84 albums respectively.

  • Michael McDonald is the original artist. Warren G sampled this song for "Regulator". Now, if this was sampled for something else, then I haven't heard it. Props, to Michael McDonald for crafting such a wicked song, it's timeless. And props to Warren G. for using that sample well.

  • Why is it so hard to admit you made a mistake in saying this is a remake when it is in fact an ORIGINAL by Michael McDonald? Is your wannabe thugsta mindset preventing you from admitting it? Respect the original artist, man.

  • stop wasting your time with that crash dummy. mike mcdonald is the original artist, absolutely not a remake. dude must be young . don't no any better

  • tech4156 messaged me:

    "u fail bitch"

    What, so desperate you have to resort to PM? That's pathetic. Why can't you just admit that this song is an ORIGINAL by Michael McDonald and NOT a remake? Give credit where credit is due.

  • if im so desperate how come i can message u publicly too bitch? i dont give credit to remakes, do your research b4 arguing i have done mine biyatch.

  • Then why the need to message me privately, then?

    You said "you fail u cock hungry faggot, u obviously do not know music, this is a re-make as it was used by someone else do ur research b4 openin ur piehole BIYATCH" So if this is a remake and you've done your research, who's the original artist, then?

  • pm was added fuck u. and repeating what i say and qouting is useless, i told u to do ur research so go and do it dumbass. or stick 2 ur little girl worshipping.

  • it's a nice chill video until the end when that terrifying witch appears and scares the holy shit of of you.

  • LOL at when he was on Family guy

  • great song. warren g used this for his song regulate

  • music for the lovers...

  • I love this song and "What a Fool Believes." It's timeless.

  • yeah used on 'regulate' by warren G and nate dogg' but this was someone elses before this. Music is always recycled.

  • nothing new under the sun.

  • "yeah used on 'regulate' by warren G and nate dogg' but this was someone elses before this. Music is always recycled."

    FALSE: The melody and beat are a Michael McDonald original. Don't go around spreading bullshit that you can't backup. The lyrics cover a similar story to an older but unrelated song with the same name but the song is Michael McDonald's through and through.

  • you fail u cock hungry faggot, u obviously do not know music, this is a re-make as it was used by someone else do ur research b4 openin ur piehole BIYATCH

  • tech4156

    this is the orignal song .warran g used the music years later in his song regulate .

    inaneframe your spot on

  • This is the original song by Michael McDonald from the early 80's.

  • U fail, cock jockey

  • How did I fail? You're only embarrassing yourself more here with your ignorance if you keep yapping.

  • wow wot an amazingly boring comeback. they're typed words not actual physical yapping. thats the best u can do?? u suck...major cock. u lamo.

  • You still haven't answered my question. How did I fail? You said to inaneframe "you fail u cock hungry faggot, u obviously do not know music, this is a re-make as it was used by someone else do ur research b4 openin ur piehole BIYATCH"

    Okay, so if this was a remake, who was the original artist?

  • NOW ur asking me "who made original" after arguing for soo long, ur weird, shouldnt it be other way round?? That is how u fail, bitch. Dont worry abt inanframe he lost, concentr8 on ur own battles.

  • Saying "u fail, bitch" doesn't make you win an argument nor explain how I failed. Nope, not worrying about anyone. So who made the original, since you say it's a remake?

  • who said thats wot wins an argument? u fail b'coz u argue then ask after u been taken apart "who made original" attempting to appease the situation. U FAIL. dick. hahahahhahaha

  • You're avoiding my question. Using foul language doesn't make you win an argument either, BTW. You insist that this is a remake. If so, who sang it before Michael McDonald?

  • so why argue then ask questions later? i can do this forever.

  • So why can't you admit that the song is an original by Michael McDonald? Nothing wrong with saying you made a mistake after claiming initially it's a remake. You disrespect the original artist if you don't give him credit where credit is due him.

  • 1. Besides the fact that "cock hungry faggot" and "BIYATCH" are juvenile, contradictive and presumptive statements, it does not help your case even if it were true.

    3. QLTM @ "do ur research b4 openin ur piehole", that was my advice to you and it still stands, read one small biography about Michael, I have read about him extensively. When you deny the work of an artist, you are offending them, would you like some ignorant asshole to deny your artistry. . . if you had any?

  • for your info i have done more research and have met him. also how can "cock hungry faggot" be contradictive?? i think ur actually quite dumb, tryin to be clever. And case?? we are not in court. also u claim to have said exactly what i said!! thats conveniently stupid. If u have nothin productive then dont type at all..FAG. haha

  • case 'n': a statement of facts and reasons used to support an argument; "he stated his case clearly"

    "BIYATCH" and "cock hungry faggot" are two statements. One implies that I am a female dog and the other that I'm a male homosexual. Those are contradictory.

    I told you to do your research and you simply parroted me when you said "do ur research b4 openin ur piehole BIYATCH".

    You seem to be misunderstand even the simplest of discourse.

  • if u were half as clever as u think u wld know that a female dog is a "BITCH" u are a "BIYATCH" which is also the beta male in the homesexual relationship, which u are. Therefore ur boyfriend plays the man (alpha) and u take up the ass. hope that schooling was adequate. adios.

  • To finish this argument: The music was written by Mr. McDonald

    No you have never met him, this is a common last resort when you have been proven completely and utterly wrong.

  • haha wow now ur a psychologist. if i have not met him then no u have not researched him. And no u have not proven anything except that ur a pathetic bitch. pls dont cry. now its finished.THE END.

  • Yeah, obviously this tech4156 guy just made a big fool out of himself after being owned and is desperately trying to redeem himself. Sad.

  • booring all u can do is repeat me.

  • Boring, yet you still haven't answered my questions, though. If this is a remake and you said you've done your research, who's the original artist then?

  • I understand what you're saying. But it is similar to an earlier version by artists in my above post. It's only similiarity is the songwriting itself, not the music. But it's still a great song and Michael McDonald made it popular.

  • Exactly, inaneframe.

  • For being 15, and a complete metalhead, this is a big change from what I listen to, but I like it <3

  • I heart Michael McDonald... Warren G and Nate Dogg used this beat for Regulate

  • Brings back so many memories

  • one cool ass white cat

  • I am sure I will keep loving, never forget, and keep this video close to my heart, Til Tuesday at the earliest.

  • Fantastic vibe...!

  • good song!! thnx for posting this.

  • What's the Hip-Hop song that sampled this?

    Snoop? I can't think of it now. Nate sings the hook, I remember that much

  • Warren G - Regulate

  • i had NO idea that this was mcdonald's song first - so weird lol

  • That's right!

    Thanx!

  • it was a clear black night a clear white moon....

  • THAT BASS GUITAR KICKS BUTT...man oh man..wish I could learn from that guy...

  • You got that right...the great Louis Johnson!!!

  • One of the best songs ever.

  • that's what I say to all my ex-girlfriends peace to Jesus Christ he will send my wife for me....

  • KICK ASS!!

  • What a voice!!!!

  • I keep forgetting the name of this song.. lol :D

  • I love all of Michael McDonald's songs. Most of the music that came out in the 90s and even now are sampled from these original artists. There is nothing like the original though!

  • it waz a clear bak nighttt LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  • Haha look at that hairdo at 3:05.. those kind of locks should require a permit to handle.

  • This song should have at least reached #2!

  • This song was released in 1982."If That's What It Takes" album 1982

  • This melody is the original and written by Mike McDonald and used way back in 1984 by Warren G in the track Regulate on the album G-Funk by Warren G and the Twinnz

  • :/ actually, this song was released on the Sweet Freedom album that came out in 1986. I don't know who Warren G is but this isn't his song.

  • It's called trolling.

  • Warren G is a popular 90's rapper who sampled this song for his single "Regulate". JaredJammer needs to Jammer something in his mouth next time before he speaks.

  • Haha, Warren G? Ain't he a crapper? Now, there is a bunch of no-talents.

  • Oh, Warren Griffin aint got no talent?

    Now that made my day :D

  • this song came out in 1982 u fucktard, warren g used the music from this guy, michael mcdonald, man you need to be slapped, don't watch the video if you don't know what you are talking about boy, where the hell you get that this song came out in 98, its from 1982

  • dont u hate it when people dont know what the heck they are talking about lmao and then they post things in there that u wonder why why why !!!!!

  • o yea i hate that, o don't usually say anything mean to people on here, but when you don't know what you are talking about and you are trying to put down a good musician that you don't even know then it pisses me off lol, i mean come on, at least get the year right lol

  • haah warren g has this same beat

  • mike mcdonald has the bast blues voice ever. nvm elvis this man can bring it

  • He has the voice and rhythem of a black soul R&B singer!

  • This is a beautiful song by Micheal, why all the hostility? Music is suppose to bring people together, not chump each other off. Man grow up and show some respect for someone who's been around for years and is still doing it. What are you doing? You know who you are. Anyone can sing a song, what difference does it make? It's perfect to me, you disagree, fine, but don't be putting the man down because you like someone else. MM will always be here.

  • Michael f**cking rocks.......

  • Ahh the wonders of the internet age... people can't take a joke. Lighten up, ffs.

  • This guy is NO TALENTLESS TURD as you have made so clear freelantern, he is a talented artist of HIS OWN MAKING douche bag!!!!

  • you caaaaaauuuuunts!

  • i love michaels early stuff

  • It was a clear black night, a clear white moon.

    Warren G was on the streets, trying to consume.

  • Some skirts for the eve, so I can get some funk

    Just rollin in my ride, chillin all alone

  • MOUNT  U P

  • for the record, NO I WASNT SERIOUS.

    lol, but this guy's still a turd!

  • haha this sounds so wierd if you have heard the instrumental in regulate by warren g haha. ive never heard this origional version thanks 4 tha post.

  • hahahaha what a comment wow that´s michael´s song man hahahahahahah

  • haha, are you serious?

  • ARE YOU FUCKIN' SERIUOS?!?!?! Nigga, this shit came out back in 1982!!!!!!!!!! Warren G's Regulate came out in 1994 for christ sake!!!!

  • haha r u serious. i hope ur being sarcastic. warren g "ripped off" this track haha the arragence and niavity of todays youth haha.

  • YEAH MICHAEL MCDONALD PROBABLY JUST SUNG OVER THE MUSIC WHICH SOMEONE ELSE WROTE SO SHUT UP BOUT WARREN G

    warren g is a bad man so shut up

  • all u idiots just need too mind your own business!!!! dont worry about someone eles's reason for sampling his instrumental!!! ok idiots!

  • Why can't these guys write their OWN music instead of smapling someone elses COPYRIGHTED creation and using it oft times not paying royalties. It doesn't take a artist to use a tape recorder. And if they don't have instruments sing accapella, but that;s right they aren't singing they are rapping so it's different.

  • you have no idea what real rap is

    if u tried to make a rap album it would suck dick so shut the fuck up and become a professional rapper if its so easy

  • i'm aight with people sampling.. i love kanye ... lol. but i wish that people knew or that dj's kinda pointed out that man.. they were inspired by so-and-so. giving credit a little more

  • This is Brilliant. Michael got some real talent.

    When Warren G and Nate Dogg sampled this song i think it was to prove a point, and the punchline of that point was The'G-Funk'Music style.

    Sampling in my opinion is a form of expressing yourself in a real good classic. Makes u realise how good the music really is.

    They sampled many classics like this, because this is just simply good music. Thats good shit. Do u agree?

  • As far as I know, Michael Mc Donald didn´t even compose the song... and "regulate" song sounds completly diferent!

    BIG RESPECT FOR HIP HOP ARTIST SUCH WARREN G AND NATE DOGG!!

  • the basic track of "i keep forgeting" is there(time, bars and sound)nate and warren just added drum and synths for "production" reasons

    like other samples, just a rip on a classic by a certified "soul brotha" for a quick buck.

  • Much as I love this guy, it's all about Bobby Caldwell baby!

  • hey dickerlicker101 get a fucking life u retard and quit being such a prude

  • The late great Jeff Porcaro is so on the money in this!

  • I heard Michael McDonald and his gang did a drive by and killed Nate Dogg and Warren G for stealing this song.....

    Michael McDonald is from the streets, dude doesnt fuck around

  • LOL!

  • can't believe this guy rippde off warren g.

  • the other way round I'm sorry.

  • this "guy" did this in 1983! not 1998...

  • freelantern

    wtf are you talking about

  • It's not ripping it off it's called sampling. lots of hip hop/ R & B artist employ this

  • No it's ripping them off you cum swallowing cock licking mother fucker. The reason they "sample" is because they have no talent and no creativity. That is why rap is dying. Fucking Cunt.

  • no dumbass, the reason people started sampling is because they didnt have instruments but wanted to make music. If you had a tape recorder and a record collection you could make music. It turned into part of the culture of the music, so fuck off you stupid insensitive little bitch.

  • Ya cant be any Geek off the Street!!!

  • Nate Dogg & Warren G ripped this whole riff off.

  • OMGZ YOU'RE A DETECTIVE.

  • Was really commenting on the originality of the song to have come out in 1982. I am pretty much aware the world knew who did the re-make. You would have to be dead to not know that. So therefor, that lil comment wasn't amusing at all.

  • neither was yours

  • Wasn't trying to be. Just speaking the truth Nate Dogg and Warren G totally used the song. If you read my first answer and read the one after mine, the one after mine was pure sarcasm.

  • Im born in 1897, And this kind a music, i grew up with, I love it:)

  • So your telling me your 111?

  • Wow, 1897 huh? Thats preety amazing that a 112 year old person knows how to use youtube.

  • Flippy you don't know who Michael McDonald is? What rock have you been under? He's won 5 Grammys over his 33 year career and he is a former member of the legendary Doobie Brothers and Steely Dan. He has also lent his name and support to various charities causes. My you lead a sheltered life, lol.
