  • It rally makes me feel relax every time I hear this song...

  • i remember hearing this as a kid...brings back so much memories...it was a classic then..and still is a classic..

  • great music is timeless,and should be shared.You come away healed after hearing this.

  • I was in my gradwschool when this song hit the air

  • WOW. One of my faves from the 80s . . . there's a melody and lyrics you can UNDERSTAND!!

  • I'm glad to see there are no dislikes on this song.. It is just a great song by a great group!! Love it!!

  • wow!!!! sure miss this era....

  • I love this song. I was a little girl when this song came out I think 80's music is the best kind of music they don't make love songs like this anymore.

  • This song makes me feel so warm in such so cold winter. May everyone also feel warm and happy for the coming christmas.

  • I remember getting the Debarge album as a gift during Christmas '85! Those were the days!

  • I was a young adult in that era. Now I'm a middle aged guy. :-(

  • AWESOME THANKS FOR SHARING

  • because we have "artists" like lady kaka, rihana, beyonce, jayz, niki minaj, kanye east, trey

  • I love the synth solo on this song.

  • Magic can definitely be found in The DeBarge Family

  • smh.. tht i even know about this song lol im 12

  • fantastico, me gusta desde que gane un concurso de radio,donde preguntaban el nombre de la cancion y yo conteste correctamente, eso fue en el año de 1989 en una emisora de nombre latina 99.1 F.M valencia venezuela.

  • great sound for sure I wish more bands in the industry would release songs of this caliber.

  • and i keep wondering whos fucking donna now..

  • @novacane8 and I keep wondering who's dick she's slapping around....

  • All the 80s songs have something special that really connects with my heart....Wish I could go back to those simpler times

  • Great song allways remember since i was a kid

  • bago matulog...nyt! zzzzzz

  • this song always makes me wanna cry. I'm wondering who's holding her right now.

  • This song gets me straight into my heart!

    Very sad, very beautiful and perfect for the broken heart!

  • My freakin problem is I know who's holdin Donna now, and it isnt me! She once told me if she was ever stranded on a deserted island and could choose one person to be w her it would be me. I keep waiting for that day to come! Any one who says its better to have loved and lost never had to bare the pain!!

  • it's ironic. The adults of the 60's were saying the same thing about the 80's music what you all are saying about todays music. when todays kids are older in the 2030's, they will say that 2030 music isn't as good as their music was.

  • My name is Donna n besides this song I also had Oh Donna sang to me alot, I always loved the songs

  • This track is SAD. This song makes me think about my x of 9 years. Real talk! I thought she was my future wife. Also makes me think about my last girl who I also thought for sure was THE ONE. Love def isnt easy. being a single guy at 31 yrs old , getting older every day, is a HARD thought to process.

  • man this song brings back some memories. I forgot how much I love this song and Debarge

  • thank u 4 uploading! ive had this song in my head for days!!

  • I guess the Debarges never made an official vid for this 1. They hit #6 in Billboard, 8-10-85. God bless ya, Debarges!

  • Anybody ever figure out who was holding Donna? I didn't. I figure she was banging a lot of guys though. That is why we couldn't figure it out!

  • Everytime i hear this song I think of Donna from "All My  Children"

  • that el debarge curl is so cool

  • 70's and 80's are truly the best of the best era of just plain old great songs. I'm afraid that this era will never ever come back anymore. I'm so lucky to have lived those times. I'm rewinding back the time by listening to these kind of songs. Music nowadays is dead. No meaning to the lyrics at all.

  • @MrGthang I most certainly concur. 21 years from now nobody is goin' 2 be checkn 4 Gay oops Trey songs, kelly rowland, rianna and chris brown they r all weak artist, 2days hip hop don't even get me started.

  • this music is so good!

  • this song turn my mood....i have to play this every morning .....

  • This song gives me the sense of nostalgia.. remember some of things i spent in the old days.. Nice song.. Todays song does not give me the same type of feeling.. Its missing that element of nostalgia if you know what i mean..Old songs are way better than todays songs imo..

  • @IBTMorimoto Nostalgia? More than that, it's missing feeling. All songs nowadays are just redundant minimalist notes stuck on top of static beats with some attractive auto-tuned singer.

  • WISH THIS DUDE COULD GET IT BACK TOGETHER!!!!

  • 1985 el año que nacio mi hermana, en que me enamore varias veces de compañeritas de colegio, año en que solo veia el futuro y no existia pasado, como me transporto a ese año cada vez que escucho esta cancion

  • this was good music, i miss it, i love this group//////

  • everytime i hear this song,it reminds me of someone, i dunno why its just i imagine so many things that is impossible to happen..oh my..what have you done to me..

  • I "Really Miss" this very talented group!

  • Best voice of the 80's.

  • Comment removed

  • This song reminds me one my first love "Kimball Jay Bobbitt" rest in peace

  • Oh man my Donna was called Claire Ruth Charles where is she now?

  • @james080871 and mine was Patricia Ortiz in 1985.it makes you kinda wonder where are they?

  • I wish I was born in the 80's the music was so much better then...

  • Esta es la canción de mi esposa....TQM...disculpa mis errores...

    Te amo y grácias por estos hijos tan hermosos....

  • man i was 6 when this came out; i LOVE everything 80's the music, sound, cartoons, tv was better back then bc there still a since of purity and character in it; now its all about money...no skill no talent no effort

  • born in the 80s so i glad i was,this song is very nice! and other debarge songs and atlantic star, kool and the gang too!

  • I heard this song play on the intercom at the Fred Meyer's where I worked, it hadn't played on the intercom for weeks, and finally I asked a coworker the name of the song, she told me, and another eight weeks later I had the CD, a gift from Anne, the sweetest, most beautiful, most wonderful electronics manager, as soon as I could I put the CD on my computer, I have listened to this song everyday since then! God bless DeBarge, and every Donna, and all of you, thanks for posting.

  • the 80's aaaaaaaaaw sure miss'em

  • 邦題「ドナは今」で日本でもヒットしたデバージの名曲。

    美しいメロディとコーラス…ミディアムテンポなバラードが、

    心の琴線に触れて切なくなる。

  • Beautiful Song !

  • Another great song from the 80's. Why does today's music suck soooooo much?

  • its just gonna get worse unfortunately

  • @OnePsychoPuppy I agree! Were you brought up in that era, or is that your parents' influence? I'm an 80's era teen!

  • @OnePsychoPuppy Because back then they sang from the heart. Today "artists" sing for money... nothing beats the heart.

  • I used to have a classmate named Donna way back in my elementary days. She's so intelligent that almost all of our classmates adored her and i"m one them. Yet she's also cute and smart! Dunno whose holding her right now...:)

  • 1985!

  • 7 men who lost their woman named Donna lol

  • i wish i was born in the 80's, and i'am just 16 years old. music today is just trash.

  • @zsharpdotnet I couldn't agree more. I'm 18 and I love 80s music. <3

  • @XxBabyGurlLovexX yeah, its just sad, real music is gone nowadays.

  • @zsharpdotnet you got that right. I'm so hooked on DeBarge music and other oldies from other artists that had TALENT AND SOUL. Where is all that now?? SMH

  • @XxBabyGurlLovexX yeah, its not that i dont respect musicians these days, but, all of they're songs are just about sex, getting drunk, getting wasted, getting busted, getting money and booty. but for me thats not music. sounds more like a gimmick. i wish the oldies can make a comeback, like babyface, he is my all time favorite musician.

  • @zsharpdotnet same here Im 16 too and I HATE MUSICS NOWADAYS!

  • @Karyn50 couldn't agree more. iam disgusted by the music of today.

  • ESTE GRUPO MUSICAL É DEZ, AQUI NO BRASIL NO AMAMOS VCS!

  • Memories..memories..dayum I miss the 80's!!!

  • good song

  • This brings back memories. I had a friend dedicate this to a guy that broke up with me (long time ago), because that is my name. Thanks for the memory, I miss those times.

    @perpetual61 if you build the machine and offer to sell tickets let me know I would love to return to the 80's

  • I bet this song was a REALLY popular slow jam for a lot of high school junior proms back in 1985. :-)

  • yes..its the yamaha cs-80

  • Mantap! ini baru yang namanya lagu hehe :)

  • I always said this was another side to richie valens' donna after he died in that horrible plane crash. Makes sense. Who's holding donna now?

  • @1970SuperBird100

    You must be confusing this with another song - this was a 1985 release.

  • the 80s rock!

  • the first time i heard this song i thought it was a woman singing and i was a child and thought why is she in love with donna?.... and i grew up believing that the singer was a girl till i realized some men have a particular and soft voice and I always loved this song, just loved it, all my life, now i know it's a man singing though i wouldn't mind if it was a girl because the song is awesome and love it

  • i was born in 1992 but i totally love 1980's music......

  • This song make me laugh a little bit.I was 10 when it came out,and my parents were divorcing.My Dad till this day is still kicking himself,kind of ironic how my Mom's name is Donna.Guess Dad is still wondering who's holding Donna now.

  • Clippers, you're correct.

  • That damn Bunny was FINE boy!!!!!!

  • badd song

  • Those good old days are forever gone. Only thing we have left is their song that we all keep in ourselves. Dam life was so much easier, happy, less hectic, care free, don't need alot of money and people are just much more happier compared to today where everyone is in each other's throat trying to come up in life.

  • @clippers4me

    the 80's were no picnic. Threat of nuclear war from Russia, AIDS, crack, poverty. Reagan sucked but the music was good

  • @gl0bal74 Reagan was a God send compared to Carter....lets look at your list....Threat of Nuclear war?......this threat still exists....Russia? Actually there was no Russia it was known as the USSR or Soviet Union.....Russia exists now....AIDS....no cure yet....crack...still around.....Poverty?......there are more poor people under Obama than any other president ever....yeah.....things have got so much better......LOL

  • @Jacobrester

    You're a fool if oyu think things were better in the 80's than now. Reagan was a horrible president (Iran Contra, incompetant, senile) He raised taxes and increased spending. please get your facts straight. LOL

  • @gl0bal74 I think you need to do some research.....Reagan is famous for lowering taxes......democrats are your tax and spend party.......Odumba is letting the economy get in the sad shape that Carter let it get in in the late 1970's....Reagan is already rated as on of the top presidents of all time

  • @Jacobrester

    you have fallen for a myth. Reagun cut taxes in 1982; then he raised taxes in 1982, 1983, and 1984
