My advice to the young is always tie off lose ends especially with regards to affairs of the heart....

  • Lifting My Spirit!

  • DAMN, HER TEETH ARE WHITER THAN WHITE-----PRICELESS!!!

  • ONE OF THE BEST MOST SINCERE SONGS IN THE HISTORY OF HUMAN KIND. ROSE ROYCE IS THE BEST...............THE ENTIRE GROUP AND THEIR PRODUCER.

    WE WANT CONCERTS WITH THE REAL BAND WITH MY GIRL.

  • A Timeless Classic!

  • As a DJ for over 35 years and of all

    the countless number of songs I have played

    and collected, If I had to pick my favorite songs

    of all time... this would be one of them!

  • What most of of timeless classics need is a proper music video or, at least, completely restored original footage. Original song is better than any semi recent cover, as always. Fashion sense isn't worse than of any pop star today. Conclusion: perfect!

  • Man everytime I see her sing she has that big smile on her face I can never tell if its a happy smile or a "cover up the hurt" smile but either way its beautiful and I love watching her sing MmmmMmmm Wish I was born back in these day so I coulda been there live. O well Ima 80s baby

  • i was in my last year of college when this great song came out-what a great group-thank you soso much for posting!!!!!!

  • @dogcat126

  • @dogcat126 CHECK OUT MY SAMPLE TO DIS, ITS HEAT!!!

  • Masterpiece! I've seen them twice in London.

  • a true classic from the 70.s brilliant.xxx

  • Baby Boy brought me here

  • I heard this on the X Factor last night. I like the original better.

  • oh, wot a classic and it took me age 2 find it!! :) x

  • Why havent something like, 20 million people seen this vid and given it a thumbs up..?

  • Takes me back...why oh why can't they write songs like this anymore???

  • I use to hear this song every saturday at noontime on Kiss108fm Boston . Vinnie Peruzzi show...I love those days!

  • this was the music to remember an actress assassiated in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 1992 in a satanic ritual with 19 stabs.

  • @TheMrAlexrj

    Sad...verry sad...but THIS experience

    does not make the song bader...

    It´s only the use of a "heavenly" song for a satanic ritual. 

  • @Raindropser3 it was this one.

    cover girl singing.

    /watch?v=KqJimrdvHWc&NR=1

  • @Raindropser3 satanic ritual? how bizarre

  • @moparcarsonly

    WHY did YOU reply to ME, mopar...???

    It was a comment from popstardarkstar to TheMrAlexrj

    2 weeks ago.....

  • @Raindropser3 my apologies dude it was mean't for the author of the words i highlighted

  • @TheMrAlexrj did yu heard about it?

    no. at all. the music was played to

    celebrate the actress.

  • @TheMrAlexrj

    I am brazilian, really was tragic moment to Brazil.

  • @eltonsantosA  yes it was, and the economic problems also killing the brazilians.

    as today. some says that she was killed to cover up what was happing in the

    power.

  • @TheMrAlexrj ahem! this song came out in 1977, 15 years before your 1992 satanic ritual. This song is just a happy memory of its time for me. :)

  • @Chief122 Perhaps she was the same nurse!! haha. Cheers

  • i recently went to see a showcase of Sister Sledge, Rose Royce and Jackie Graham and to be quite frank it was a bit of a joke. Not a very good production, backing track and a half baked performance from Sister Sledge made sure that this was not a good gig to be hold. THEN.... Qwen Dickie came on and sang this, and made me weep with her vocals. A stunning piece of music!!!

  • just love it!!! the old music was just amazing!!! Nothing like it now, gutted i missed it all 1st time round! :(

  • I was in hospital getting my appendix out when this came out. I fell in love with a nurse. I was 12. ( boyish giggle ) A beautiful memory. Thanks Raindropser3. A true timeless classic.

  • @nijinsky1000

    ;-) <3

    Rainy.

  • @nijinsky1000 Same here, I was 11, also fancied my nurse!

  • Incredible vocals. Incredible music...Helltowne Soundz

  • fantastic music,tks

  • i remember when The Cover Girls did this, they really did the cover justice and i used to play it all the time. this version was before my time but i'd heard it cause of my parents, original really is the best but i think Cover girls is a close 2nd. all the other covers come after that.

  • 2 people had a lobotomy before watching this video.

  • Beautiful song. Too bad she ruined the video with that Patti LaBelle Cherokee headdress shit.

  • 1977 !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This is the greatest music ever made original and fro m the heart. Not like the remix the so called stars put out today.

  • Classic song never gets old lurve it.....

  • This version and the one by The Cover Girls are the two best versions.

  • excuse my english because iam french boys, this song is very very great, thinks rose

  • this is the shit.

  • This is a truly great song, and made the no.3 position in the UK in early 1978. Not seen this clip for many a year. Thanks for posting.

  • I saw her live in the 90's. She was supporting Bernard Manning of all people - who turned up almost 2 hours late. She was patently only booked for two songs but she came on and off and did her best in the meantime and was more than a star. Her voice was amazing live.

  • 2 people are fans of the shite music we have got today.

  • Beautiful!....

    

  • This is when Good Music had no color, Everyone was jamming to the same thing. Black, white, brown & Yellow. Everyone was laughing and crying together. Miss when Radio use to play good music.

  • one of my fav songs ever! ;D

  • Wow - so beautiful!

  • this song represents the perfect blend of vocal and instruments :)

  • there's something hypnotic about this song....real music!

  • Nice hat too!!

  • this is a bad motha i dedicate this to ronnie c.

  • this song always has tears to my eyes

  • Yes i know this is the Original , i remember when it hit the charts..............but i was saying that Beyonce messed up the essence of the song for me shes too hard core to sing a song such as this.with a smooth flow and her band is too choppy not smooth, i mean it sounds alright but can't even come close to RR. If im not mistaken , this songs was originally written for Barbara Strisand.

  • @Raindropser3 Anytime... i know quality when i see it, hear it, touch it, smell it and/or taste it.

  • Yeah this is that song Beyonce fFFFFFFFFF up!

  • @wreepeet

    THIS IS THE ORIGINAL!!!

    You may also look for Paul Weller´s version of this song...ELEFANTASTIC:-)))

  • when i get that Rolls Royce (Black Edition) i want a little statue of Rose to replace the spirit of ecstasy emblem; and every time my car start it will automatically start playing "wishing on a star" and instead of the word 'Rolls'' it will have a red rose beside Royce!!!!

  • @FyazMoe

    THANK YOU:-) <3<3<3<3<3

    RAINY♥.•:*¨¨*:•.♥

  • Heavenly...

  • That's a big-ass headpiece. Wow.

  • when black song was so great !!! I miss these days !!

  • @camafrik

    I don´t think "black or white song"...

    I only can think in "good or bad song"...

    but THIS ONE is an EVERLASTING SONG:-))))

    Weather black nor white...but EVERLASTING:-))))

  • @Raindropser3 ....The We have is people Taken over our Flats and houses NOT born here claiming Money....And Our own kids get pushed to the back of the behind the Dustbin...But Mr Africa Moves right in....

  • @Raindropser3 Thank you so much for posting this video and song. I don't even turn on the radio in my car anymore, but at least I can go to YouTube so I don't forget what actual good music sounds like. Thank you very much again. :)

  • @LaughingMan0960 DITTO !

  • @LaughingMan0960 You won"t find this on the radio because people

    don't know how to appreciate wonderful music when they hear it!!! This

    music defined a generation and changed the way we live FOREVER!!!

    And people need to learn to get back to basics and learn where they

    came from and WHY!!! Their roots are in this music and they need to

    learn how to listen and appreciate where they came from! And It's people

    like you and me who need to teach these people the finer things in life

  • @Raindropser3 So true, your answer hits the nail: it's simply a great song.

  • @camafrik icko, wats the colour of sound? Never mix the unmixable human color and music dont mix. AKA BLcka

  • @camafrik me too. this pretty song & the 1970's. ****

  • I love dis song it reminds me of all the good timez!

  • Love this song... first heard it on The 10th Kingdom.

  • classic!

  • I have always said it, this song is one my favorites, a nice song to listen to many times and relax, think of a lost love, a forgotten one or maybe a present one, with this song you can dream of, fall in love with or cry with it, I love this song, and I know this kinda music will never be again, the kinda music we hear today in the radio it's a disaster, a shame, just C-rap,and a bunch of trash pretending singing or just making money out some noise called music, yesterday was good and better...

  • It's a beautiful song!!!

  • BACK WHEN LYRICS AND VOICE MATTERS.......TAKE NOTES BEYONCE

  • @negokap85 LOL She did. She covered the song.

  • This song never sounds old to me...we need more music like this that spoke about love and peace. Thanks for posting.

  • Such a powerful song. I wish upon a star for the most important love in my life now gone.

  • @Fecious1

    If You have real LOVE for the creator of the stars,

    You´ll get her back in a short while...

    or You´ll get a much better one....:-)<3

  • Is there anymore stars to on for true love.......I wonder? If so I can't find...... * (

  • Love the video, and the song is mad good. Were has the music gone
