Rick Springfield - Love Somebody 1984 hard to hold

[josemour100]

You could dance while sleeping if someone plays this song in your room.

[it234561]

80´s...the gold age

[TheMondaka]

un gran tema

[TheMondaka]

gran tema

[TheMondaka]

un temaso.....te recuerdo cuando te lo cantaba con esa roñosa guitarra y me mirabas...te recuerdo con gran amor...para ti...

[ruivarvo]

God, how i love that solo at 2:19 , with that reverb it's simply breathless.

[oolly2009]

Is the petite girl who wears white t-shirt in this MTV his wife Barbara?

[67jackyrick]

My mom made my brother take me to this...I loved it..he hid in his seat hoping not to be seen !!! Great video !!

[piechicky]

Gotta listen to this one up loud.... He rocks!!

[brennieb64]

Wow! What a rush!! Man, what happened to the great music of the 70's and and 80's like Rick? Music these days just has no soul. This sounds just as great now as it did the first time I heard it....and makes me wanna rock just as hard.

[dolphyns2000]

My first rock star crush and he's still hot as hell! Watched this movie so many times when I was a kid I broke the tape.

[Canadiana71]

Isn't he gorgeous?

[blasters4life1]

[Daehawk]

Long live Rick

[rocknrollrobinson]

Rick, women want be with him and guys would like to be him! He has got to be THEE ultimate ladies man!

[musicmann1967]

My favorite RS song! Too bad it coincided with that God awful movie!!! I think the song would have been a bigger hit if it wasn't attached to the movie.

[denhartle63]

a great all around guy...actor and musician....

[RayenMalal]

¡¡Uno de mis amores platónicos... buffff que guapo Rick, guaperas total y me pone totalmente, saludos y gracias por colgarlo, besitos!!

[curvy71]

[123456789jklmn]

Number one favorite song in my book.....Love this song when it first came.

Great memories comes with this fantastic video. Thanks for sharing.

[Dashland13]

Rick Springfield's book is pretty good! Has anyone read it?

[curvy71]

@Dashland13 what book?whats the name of it?

[Dashland13]

@curvy71 The name is his book is Late, Late At Night.

[curvy71]

@Dashland13 ok thanks i would like to read it.

[MrPinting]

yes we better love somsbody..................

[taesharobinson]

truly love him and this movie.. great talent.. he still rocks to this day...

[lejjamie]

Love this song- it has truly withstood the test of time. Talent is there -maybe if I buy his new book Late Late at Night he'll talk about the making of this video and the writing of the song. it rocks.

[LadyLisa513]

I went to see this movie when it came out, i just love rick had a big crush on him and still do. hard to think i was just in the 10th grade back then lol, i dont know about anyone else who was a teen or old enough to remember the 80's but it was a blast to be young then. some people make fun of the 80's but some of the best music came from then, that was when mtv was good.

[2crokerbenton]

@LadyLisa513

I agree, I was from the 80's and graduated in 85. It was the best of times!

[darlene331]

I was only 12 when this movie came out and I am well into my thirties now and I STILL have this movie in my collection... Did you girls know that he's doing Carnival Cruises now?! OOOOHHHHH YES... I know what vacation I'm taking next year... But I don't think my husband and son will like it... Oh well..

[rodgus02]

I´M STILL IN LOVE WITH YOU RICK YOU ARE WONDERFUL YOU ARE THE REASON I´M STOCK IN THE 80´S , I REMEMBER YOU BACK IN GENERAL HOSPITAL

[fstwrtr]

I miss the 80's

[Liamsmom617]

This song is my ringtone when my husband calls me. :)

[kyteddy1]

Exxxxxxxxcellent song from a Fannnntastic movie!!!!!If you have never seen this movie.....FIND it.......it is one of the most uplifting movies with a fabulous soundtrack i have ever seen:)I have it on video and it shows that love is something worth going after and fighting for with age making NO difference...Love HAS NO age and that is one of the things this movie learns to you!!!!!!Rock ON Rick*******************

[dolphyns2000]

I totally forgot about this movie! I had in on VHS and watched it so many times it finally broke. Amazon, here I come!!!!

[1967JesusFreak]

I've always thought he would make a good Vampire ;-)~

[bonjovilover941]

this is my favorite song of his :]

[Rockzilla67]

God this song brings back memories. I know a lot of women who loved Rick back then and as a guy and a musician I did as well. Solid songs that will live on forever. Rock On Rick!

[marth231]

You can be a fan of a variety of styles of music, kinks or otherwise...that should be a no-brainer.

[retroguy1976]

Good song one of the best songs of the summer of 84

[MultiPasofino]

[BradleyExpress]

[madaiko49]

the 4 ppl were so happy listening to rick that they pressed the wrong button

[nonabliss]

Happy Birthday Rick!! UR STILL HOT!!!!!!

[jnadle1]

A portion of this video was actually used in NBC's 1984-1985 Saturday morning Campaign.

[augustofg71]

ES MUY BUENO EL VIDEO CON SU MUSICA

[MaxieBear17]

Oh, and I caught a guitar pick when he tossed it out into the audience. I keep it in my wallet, a nice little momento of a GREAT show.

[MaxieBear17]

Rick Springfield is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy :-)

[junegloom2006]

one of my alltime fave 80s songs!!!

[deeyankeeintexas]

I <3 Rick Springfield :)

[AnnabelleR100]

Yes , it's true the movie was awful, jejejeje ... but I saw that movie one-hundred times,... years later I still love his music !!! I wish can go to the concerts across the country in these days !!

[nicksmom02]

@AnnabelleR100 ME 2!! OMG I was just thinking how this made me want to see Hard To Hold again!! Takes me back

[MaxieBear17]

@AnnabelleR100

His concerts are pure MAGIC. I saw him a couple summers back and he is STILL gorgeous. The positive energy Rick omits is SO major you're on a high for days. Oh, and the best part was being THISCLOSE to the stage and when he came off, he was letting women just reach out and touch him. I touched his hair. It was an UNreal moment for sure...sigghhh..great memories.

[Slaughter70]

61 old years and still rockin'!!!!!! Watch:"What's Victoria's secret?"

[Tomasina1616]

The movie was AWFUL---yet Rick was still IS HOT!!

[starringuandi]

Great song! He went on to star in some soap opera didnt he?

[GialloHorror]

@starringuandi He was actually a soap star before he made it big in rock.

He was on General Hospital (I think, I was just a kid when he was on that show)

[starringuandi]

@GialloHorror Ooops, i thought he did the music first...thanx for the info..good stuff..

[1965Marge]

Oh watching Rick Springfielf brings back so many memories of life in the 80's !! Rock on Rick!!

[BradleyExpress]

OMG! Rick is THEE man...................... looks, talent and all around cool dude! Rick, throw me some 2nds!

[GialloHorror]

Rick Springfield was the man! My favorite song by him.

I'll say I thought the movie sucked, but the soundtrack kicked ass!

[will295000]

I was going to say something about the video but I am a product of the 1980's so I will say ROCK ON RICK...!!!

[MissNicholeC]

My song!!! I just love this movie & song! Go Rick, sexy azz!

[PecanSandees23]

I'm sure I saw this video before, but I totally forgot about it. What fun it was to see Rick again. And he's STILL smoking hot!!! Yummmmmmmmm!!!!!!

[electrodominicus]

Isn't Rick Springfield great? Gosh, he was so hot, I used to lust over him even before what that word meant!!! LMAO!

[Webdragon220]

If I remember correctly I think Sammy Hagar wrote this and presented it or rather let Rick use it. Can anyone confirm that?

[hevyonez97]

@Webdragon220 the song you may be thinking of is "i've done everything for you" which sammy wrote and did himself also...

[gagegirl51]

@Webdragon220 Sammy Hagar wrote "I've Done Everything For You" I believe Rick wrote "Love Somebody" himself.

[Pinkyjezabel]

I want this movieeeeeeeee! Where i can download it????????

[stonerbychoice]

I wore this album out..thanks man!!

[1219shopk]

I Love this video

[texadonkey34]

[MrTony20102012]

[KellyInMaryland]

[jazzmanEE]

Childhood memories..

classic tune!

hats off to Springfield

[evad2010]

RS on Californication was the best!

[8bitownsyou]

If you want to hear Rick singing this while "enjoying" a stripper, watch this seasons episode "The Apartment" of the show Californication

No, I am not kidding, He's been in the last few episodes and he plays himself!

[cami0526]

This is truly a blast from the past, wow you got to love Rick, he was amazing back then and he is still very much amazing now. Who would have thought Rick Springfield still going strong at the age of 60. Ricks first song that hit the charts here in the US was "Speak to the Sky" I was about three years old. Wow, Rick Springfield has and still l rocks my world!!!!

[HDangerism]

Lol, I loved "Jock Rock", in the 80's...where's my parachute pants and Chess King shirt, that was black, and turquiose , with the sleeves cut off

[pkrieter]

Man he understands love ! I love his music  ! I wish we didn't get old. I still feel 21 when I hear this song. !!!!!

[solilady1]

sexy...

[kab803]

I totally got my hair cut just like his in this video!!!

[jenjen786]

RICK ROCKS!!!!!!! The best songs...coolest guiar riffs....best hooks.....and the most AMAZING performer...when u see him LIVE you will be addicted for Life!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nobody can hold a candle to him..... and he STILL ROCKS TODAY and looks yummy at 60!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rick understands about the HUMAN TOUCH and knows how to connect with his fans in a way like no other performer can....hes a gift!

[odiemodie1]

Rick Springfield is one of the best reasons we celebrate and see the 80's as the coolest decade of all time. A time when music videos were mostly cheesy, but the songs were standouts and just plain fun. Livin' in the 80's was indeed like livin' in Oz. Thank you, Rick, and keep Rocking on!

[blazinforeva]

@odiemodie1 and in their 80s their hair was massive...

(im just sayin) and i agree with you on how we celebrate and see 80s as the coolest decade :P

[mtlsixshooter]

@odiemodie1 -Well said, well said, Here here.

[we3goats]

@odiemodie1 best way to put it, living in OZ. those were the days!

[kurtace244]

@odiemodie1 Can't add a word well said 80's rule!!!!

[dlhouse18]

Are you kidding?! He wasn't even half as big as the Kinks, let alone the Rolling Stones!! What are you smokin'?

[jenjen786]

If youre a KINKS fan... then how come you're listening to RICK??

The only thing thats SMOKING here is RICK!! SMOKING HOT!!

[abig31fan]

Ummmm and what are the Kinks doing today??? Rick is still rocking at 60 and yes, Still SMOKIN' HOT!!!! And oh yeah, I bet he's not 'half as big---ummmm fat' as the kinks today. You'r right!!!

[johannmichael]

he is always great.

timeless

[peiklk]

He's got some of the best songs and some of the worst videos :) Perfect for the 80s, but oh so very cheesy now.

[TheSquishybutt]

lmao!!! My very same thoughts!

[pearlman76]

great song... my fav of his

[HankLandMan]

Sorry but it's not as funny as the other claim. Almost.

[danell001]

i searched for this song, and wala..thank goodness its here.

bullshit imeem, u sucks why post songs which run only at 30 seconds.

[danell001]

man...i miss the 80's...

[racewurx1]

cool vid

[HankLandMan]

"Rick belong to the best artist ever (at least of 20th and 21th century)"

LMAO

[karlalae]

*SQUEALS* WOW.. i haven't thought about this song in YEARS!! It's so nice to see all the other rick springfield videos on here besides friggin jesse's girl, which i'm STILL sick of lol.

Thanks for posting!! SUCH an 80's vid!! =D

[FooVera]

It's on Amazon but Region 1 only.

[Kikyogirl]

he's mineeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!­!!!!

[flacka40]

I absolutely love this man. His soooo crazy sexy. I still have this movie on VHS, I can't find it on DVD. He is still crazy sexy and I try to catch him in concert when I can. MMMMMM Baby!!!!!!

[b01594]

Ohhh man..I wish I had this movie...I cant find it anywhere........

[RAWWRIMAPIRATE]

great song

[peluchitas]

Oh my God he was soooooo handsome guy!!!

[lakl05]

he is still gorgeous!!!! check it out :)

[Biggestisland]

Great Song & Vid. Thanks for posting

[thelegendkiller115]

rick is the man

[Ariamaluum]

American record companies have a tendency to screw and exploit with their foreign imports. Rick Springfield is no exception. If he was born in America, he would have been Glen Campbell of rock.

[twilightgrrl669]

I saw him in 1999 in concert in my state! He rocked then.

[cheapcape]

I like the movie and this hit song!

[ladyparrotluvr]

This guy is 60, & he is still sooooo hot!

[Babosmom]

Amen, sister!

[Hairmetallurgist]

Rick had a winner with this song...an almost PERFECT pop song...great chorus, good guitar riffs, decent lyrics, amazing melody...gotta love it...plus, it takes ya back...it's all good, here

[123456789jklmn]

LOve this song....He's so sexy when he swings his leg when he sings. Loved him when I was a teenager. Now I'm 45 and he's still fab.

[LanceRocker]

Yes you do, Jennifer !! Infact that I'm not gay....

He' s a cool man !!!! And my favorite !

[jeniferans1974]

Rick Springfield was and still is great.Still hot too!

[hz11287]

He'll be performing in our town in late September 2009 and My sisters and my neice will be going to his concert. Of course I was the one who had the huge crush on him and I always remind myself that he's untouchable cause he is very much married. Darn it!

[1myteri]

Tim Pierce is the best

[skolarlee]

Finally someone else who recognizes Tim Pierce's guitar talent.

[DestroyerofSouls666]

Saw him this past Friday (4/3/09) at Nokia Theater in NYC. The guy puts on a great show and actually came off the stage and walked through the audience. Man, the ladies were going nuts!!!! I'd be lucky to look like him at 59! LOL!! If he comes through your town, check him out and Hall & Oates who put on a great show as well.

MTV and VH1 are controlled by pieces of garbage who just want kids to behave like spoiled sluts or crackheads. I feel sorry for teens today. The 80s and 90s ruled!

[noelpm]

Seen him 4 times. He is bad ass. Love his shows and all his songs sound just like he did 20+ years ago.

[hz11287]

I always check out Rick's website and in late 2007 Ace Frehley went to see him perform in New York. Now, what does that tell you about Rick as a musician. Rock God Guitarist Ace went to see Rick perform.

[DestroyerofSouls666]

That's awesome! I agree, after seeing him live, I realized that he is a much more talented musician than people realize. He also has an engaging stage presence. Eat your heart out Jon Mayer, you overrated hipster doofus!

[SYNDICADO]

"What do you mean MTv didn't have any commercials?"--The young people at my job

[acuna20]

I was 14  years old, what a great time, i still remember the movie.

[celinebritgirl]

The movie flopped because the female lead wasn't' up to snuff! A terrible actress and way too old to be playing Ricks love interest not to mention not a nice looking girl either.Everybody that's that I know that's seen the movie thinks the same thing. It's unfortunate because it wasn't a bad story at all. I don't know where they got this actress and have never seen her in anything since. Maybe she was the directors girlfriend? Anyone know?

[userbeckyfanricks]

i love at movie show is butt

[walliegirl2]

I am straight, but I would kill to look like him.  Saw three times - AWESOME.

[emmeenchanted]

You have to admit the part where he drops his towel is your fave!!

[userbeckyfanricks]

rick so hot in 80s

[gabers32]

I'm a closet Rick Springfield fan. This song was great!

[Swiftcraft880]

this song is so freaking gd!, love it.

who said that old music is bad?

5/5

[Swiftcraft880]

this video deserves more views

[XTheSoulTakerX]

not my type...but it is good, i will not say it's bad.

[lonewarriorfit]

Great tune!

Takes me back to a better time...

[micmouse12001]

Thanx 4 posting...This guy was / is good at just about everything he did / does...

[paleon1701]

El mejor artista musical de los ochentas!!!! Excelente cantante, compositor, eximio guitarrista y además actor!!! Springfield las tenia todas! Si hasta actuó en el primer episodio de Battlestar Galactica (bueno, los cylones lo matan a los 10 minutos, pero no importa). Si hasta tenía su propia serie de dubujos animados!!! Es una lástima que haya terminado detenido por violencia intrafamiliar y actuando en una serie de detectives playeros... mal.... Pero igual, queda lo hecho hacia atrás.

[GodChristLord]

One of the besting sounding vocalists on a rock song. This clip doesn't do justice to the original recording. I could care less whether you like the 80's or his appearance.

[Andrewkeh]

Rick still rocks!!! I love the 80's.......

[curt2004100]

MTV is not MTV anymore I remember when all it showed was music videos 24/7. Now all they show is crap. Where did we go wrong?

[lonewarriorfit]

You know that's right.

I remember as a kid the first day MTV went on the air and it was awesome...I tuned it on not long ago and all it had was stupid so called 'reality' shows and crap videos...

[phojodave]

You got that right. I remember when the M in MTV stood for Music and not Mundane. Even VH1 sucks now. the VH stood for Video Hits not Very Horrible.

[jvick87]

You must've stayed up all night thinking of that one.

[JBTHREAT]

Don't Hate, phojodave acutually nailed it about the former lives of MTV & VH1. I guess progress sucks, but i'm thankfull for VH1 Classic, at least they play vids.

[Moviefan1823]

I love, love, love this song/video. I had such a crush on Rick back then (80's). Watching this video brings back so many good memories. Thanks! :)

[Kelski1998]

All these comments kick ass 80's music was 2nd to none. Proud to say I was a child of the 80's

[jjwclink]

Long live the 80's. MTV died a long time ago.

[hz11287]

Yep, it makes me cry sometimes cause MTV went to the garbage. I hate the music today, thank god Ricky Springfield keeps touring.

[IsawaMitaka]

Mediocre moving, but an awesome soundtrack!

[steelersfan8651]

OMG, I'm sooo proud to have been an 80's child. I was 11 when this song came out. God, I remember him when he was on General Hospital. The most amazing decade of music ever!! It had a little bit of something for everyone. Music today doesn't even compare.

[klsqconhjl]

80's music are much better!

Thanks!!

[misterjoshi]

I watched this video almost everyday in the summer of 1984 until my brother taped over it...Thanks for posting it...

[amazingdany]

80s music = a decade where music was written from the heart first, paycheck second aka the absolute best music.

[phojodave]

Is it possible to go back to the decade where everyday you had fun? So many great memories bring about sad times today

[rsjjjdcaalex]

this is probably one of my favorite movies ever no actually it is tied for first with this other 80's movie

[indianwhite]

One of the BEST songs of the 80's, which happens to be the best DECADE in music.

[RonaldReaganSuccesor]

I agree
