  • I agree with MrRayge82...and I was born in '60! I'm a fan of mostly hard rock, but the songs that haunt you don't know a genre

  • LLW1?

  • I think the dude killed her...

  • musica 100% 1000.

  • A great talent. He did a good number of wonderful songs. I love the music it is just beautifully done. He has a great voice - a tremendous gift. Great, great song. I love(d) it from the first time I ever heard it. Thanks for the post.

  • AmoooO !!!! essa música de paixão mermo.

  • Porra, esse som é muito bom....

  • Information technology in the classroom, the teacher will not let anyone to listen songs, I let this song (my responsibility) and he told me to step up to the strongest:)

  • Una de las mejores canciones de Richard, para mi la mejor

  • Who looked for this song, and then disliked it? Honestly, sort your life out

  • great song

    

  • this song have a very good memeory back in the 80s when i jsut had a brand new bmw 320i and i was driving fast and hearing this song loud out of my car JBL speakers and NAKAMICHI car stereo at that time

  • kocham tę pieśń ! wspaniałe wspomnienia , uczucia , miłości !!!

    pozdrawiam fanów R.Marxa

  • I could play this song over and over again

  • BEAUTIFUL!!!!

    

  • simply great!

  • I've heard Marx before, but it was not only untill I was 20 I firts heard this song. I was captivated by its lyric. As somebody commented previously, it is magic and its Rhythm is the beatiful and typical beat from the 80's. JUst Great.

  • 1991

    

  • I left my heart in San Francisco when I first heard this track. I went into a bar, and heard it playing on FM. I was then hooked! Magical, different, and disturbing?!! Robert, Blackpool, FY4 South Shore. Let me know.

  • there r some good songs in the 00s but i agree with u ppl the 80s and 90s has a whole lot more

  • i love this song! there's something so beautiful and haunting about it, the lyrics, the rhythm, the atmosphere, everything. xD

  • uhhhhhh what a lovely voice

  • this song is going down in history as one of the latter rock year greats a heart felt ballad wich will carry you into the story hes telling, a masterpeice with that spanish solo . NICE!!!

  • nice art has nothing to do with age. actually, it gets even more valuable. why do some people connect age with art?!

  • I've heard Mr. Marx describe himself as the 'last of the rockers'; don't know about that, but the boy sure can put a good tune together. I also heard this tune was written about a real occurrence in a huge county in NE, the largest town of which is named Valentine (north central). Dunno 'bout that, either.

  • @Imallears1958 It is my understanding he wrote the song sitting on an airplane next to his wife. He didn't initially like it but his wife loved it so he put it to the tune we hear now and it is widely considered one of his best. I am not aware of any real-life connection for the song.

  • Ahhh...forbidden love 

  • super pisma iz 80 ih

  • Awesome... Murder Mystery in song Format.....I think the sheriff did it :D

  • long live the 80s

  • quizas estoy hablando tonteras, pero creo que es el mejor tema de Richard ...

  • this song  is so timeless

  • @MrTraveller49

    I agree 100% !!1 I LOVE THIS SONG-and i'm 15 ;D

  • @DropDeadDardy if you like that try Brothers in arms by Dire straits... thats real emotion and superbly performed

  • @MrTraveller49

    OH MIY GOSH ARE YOU SERIOUS? I have that song on my ipod! I LOVE IT! I listen to it before I go to bed if I can't sleep! I like So Far Away by Dire Straits aswell (:

  • goosebumps :)

  • my God.... whattta piece of a diamond this tune....insane !!

  • This is one of those songs that tells a story. I can almost see a movie being made based on this song. I agree with others here in saying that this song is very haunting...

  • @wildturkey1960

    I know what you mean. It's one of those songs that actually have meaning therefore never get old. It's hauntinly beautiful and such a calming tune. I love it soo much! (: It's funny how this song is older than my mum and its one of my favourites xD

  • @DropDeadDardy I agree 100% on that. I have some very good memories whenever I hear this song. Better times back then...

  • Hauntingly beautiful. I am so glad I was born in the 80's and my teens were in the 90's. Richard is needed in this day and age.

  • @MrRayge82 Well said. This song is a perfect example of what is wrong with today's music: It has a story, conveys emotion, and invokes feeling in the listener. We never know what happened to Mary, and that is one of the most compelling parts of this song. Today's music has so little life to it, so little story, it is shallow and honestly has no soul to me. No wonder I am stuck in the 80's and 90's.

  • @intelligentignorance lovely comment :)

  • @MrRayge82

    sounds like we're close in age and the same idea about pop/rock music

  • @MrRayge82 so wore mine, i miss the 80's

  • worth listening <3

  • Killed her or not, either way, I'd let him escape from his beautiful voice <3

  • cred din suflet ca e printre primele 10 melodii de dragoste din toate timpurile!!

  • @simplu43 sunt de acord cu tine

  • This song is so beautiful,..I feel like crying every time I hear it.

  • amazing picture

  • That feeling when you look into someone's eyes that means everything to you, they look away and you realize you're nothing to them.

  • i love it ,i heard in the pub in the other and took the name of this song ,love it!!!<3

    

  • adoro me faz lembrar do passado feliz

  • i am a teenager and i really love this song .....its from 80's but i really love this....but todays teenagers arent into these old songs......but am loloking forward for it...

  • It's arguable that Marx may not be considered the most typically good looking guy. But how many studs can sing like this? I'd fall in love with a voice like this over and over, regardless of looks. Nothing beats raw talent.

  • WHERE IS MARK TODAY? WE NEED YOU MAN!

  • Sounds a bit like the game on amiga called lost patrol... :)

  • @nyx779 YES! I've been thinking that since 1992 and never knew what this song was called.

  • @Hoffe77

    almost 20 years later... haha nice. The game was great but pretty hard. Never managed to reach the end. :)

  • TRIVIA FOR YOU; The inspiration for this track was that of Harold Jones child killer. Didn't know that, did ya?!

  • @emtasy And what cracker did you get that from?

  • @plenfestey hahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!! how long did it take you to think that one up?! hahahaha.

  • murder by cop, greatest song...grow up.and stop using sterioyypes.

  • The Best Ever Written Song !!! The WordsThe Meaning The Voice!! IT JUST CAN'T BE BEATEN!!

  • great song!!!!

  • WONDERFUL MAN.

  • wonderful I liket this song

  • Perhaps the greatest voice I've ever heard.

  • song is about a chance, that kid didn't get...

    some poor bastard that got accused of murder, btw I imagine him in his cell waiting death penalty, or something....

  • Great sond (with a possible blooper in the lyrics though)... If Mary went for a walk at night and dind't come home, how could the officers be investigating the next morning? I don't know about Nebraska laws regarding missing people, but i doubt they would take any action before within 24 hours. She could just as well be late or something.

  • @humbertojimmy

    If her body happened to be discovered by someone just walking along the river, the police would act immediately.

  • 2:50 BLowz me away forever !

  • To like a good song doesn't means to be "GAY"... but as the song says, the "prejudiced eyes" are all around!

    Happy Easter... :)

  • GAY

    

  • Absolutely ♥ this song!!

  • i heard this song when i was a teenager and i really loved it and it is all about a true story Mary was killed and Richard is singing it when the man suspect of killing her in jail

  • @hassanelhabeb1979 .... not true. I just saw Richard Marx and it was a song he wrote in the back of his tour bus just to be different. Didn't even want to record it but his wife talked him into it!

  • @hassanelhabeb1979 .... not true. I just saw Richard Marx and he told the story.....it was a song he wrote in the back of his tour bus just to be different. Didn't even want to record it but his wife talked him into it!

  • @hassanelhabeb1979 - tried to reply to you but didn't work! showed up in the regular postings :(

  • "Hazard" tells the story of an implied relationship of some kind between Marx's character (usually considered the protagonist) and a woman named Mary. Mary is presumably murdered and Marx, shunned by many in the small town since his childhood, is immediately considered the main suspect. Marx, however, maintains his innocence throughout the song, and the question of such is left open to the listener's interpretation.

  • remember my young age and big big big and great souvenir for someone i'll never forget even she's no more :(((((

  • 2:50 FTW

  • This song always creeped me out, which is exactly why I bought it and listened to it numerous times. Marx is awesome, this song and Should've Known Better are two of his best songs. :)

  • LOVE TH MUSIC!!!

  • I remember when I bought this single: I had just moved to a USA rural town, middle of nowhere. I was playing this in the beat up car that was my wheels at the time. Some sheriff started following me around. Probably because he didn't like my outsider garb, leather jacket/ripped jeans. He followed me all the way into a mom & pop store where I had previously done business;he finally stopped tailing me when the ladies recognized me&smiled. Guess he expected me to hold up the joint or shoplift LOL!

  • i wonder this actuley happend to him

  • @436543 no it didn't

  • Alen Slavica - S tobom nasao sam srecu

  • that was released on my birthday =)

  • This song should be played on all those missing person shows

  • This clip sends a strong message. "Just because someone a Police Officer or a Security Guard does not mean they can be trusted".

    Be wary and always take caution. Listen to you "gut instinct".

  • One person, one song makes your life. This in so mainy ways calms me down so much. And im not an angry man.

  • melodie care imi aduce aminte de anii de liceu......de prima dragoste.....de primul sarut....

  • listening to this wonderful song !!!!!! remembered my times ))))))))))))))))) and that is about 18 or 20 yrs and still love this emotional song iwas 17 or 18 yrs old

  • ein Hammer Lied ich liebe es, habe es sicher schon tausende mal gehört so schön zum träumen und gut bei Liebeskummer

  • Hammer Musik so richtig zum träumen hab lang nichts so schönes gehört

  • Excellent song. Richard was interviewed on BBC Breakfast News a couple of months back. Talented singer-songwriter. He was looking well (if a bit on the thin side) and his hair's calmed down since the late80's/early 90's, ha ha. Seems like an all round decent bloke. Cheers for posting.

  • Have always loved this song! What a voice! Very emotional, very smooth-listening since it came out so many years ago!!

  • They should make a movie based on this song.

    Bridge to Terabithia was close.

  • There's a home video of me singing this song when i was 4 years old, mispronouncing 70% of all the words. Hearing this song now when i'm 23 feels so wierd. I actually remember some of the lyrics!

  • Great lyrics, great arrangement, just a fabulous song from a great songwriter & performer. Would love to see him live but he does'nt seem to know we exist way down here in NZ. Maybe someday he will do a show here but meantime I'm "right here waiting"

  • Essa sim será sempre lembrada por todos os casais apaixonados, que viveram por muito tempo ouvindo essa canção. Linda música desse grande interprete da música romântica internacional. Essa faz qualquer um viajar.

  • Jahrelang hab ich diesen Titel gesucht, weil ich damals noch kein Englisch konnte und die Lyrics nicht verstanden habe. Ich wusste nach ganz intensivem Nachdenken nur noch etwas mit "to the river", hätte aber auch anders sein können. Endlich, eben gerade hab ich diesen wunderbaren Titel wieder gefunden. Ich hör ihn mir jetzt erstmal ein paarmal genüsslich an. Ahja und Richard Marx sah ja gar nicht mal schlecht aus... ;-)

  • Good psycho song!!! LOL

  • i love this song... when i remember my time in iraq and all the freinds i lost there...my two best freinds where two of them, i sor them both die.... when i need to cry out and get it out of my head i listens to this song.. its like clearing my mind,

  • It's so saddening the last comment made here was a whole year a ago :(

  • I love how this has a little story to it. Great tune.

  • nice song great voice!

  • thank you.

  • awesome lyrics awesome song.

  • amazing song and voice ! still catches me !

  • AMAZING XXBABS

  • Amazing voice, great song. Sadly, we lack such voices and lyrics in todays music.

  • @KazuyaaMishima We still have music and lyrics like this in today's music, it just never makes it to the radio. The radio plays what sells, which is typically songs about money, sex, drugs, love, and hate. And the majority of radio listeners are between the ages of 13-18, who don't know the difference. Dig a little deeper and you'll find artists like Andy Mckee, Ronald Jenkees, Gorillaz, and deadmau5. Amazingly talented artists who always push the envelope. Just stay away from the radio :)

  • @KazuyaaMishima Yea, i miss this kind of sincere, unpretentious music!

  • Comment removed

  • I think he means she went out alone to drown herself in the river, then he says he needs to make it to the river, which I think means he finds out about her planned suicide and trys to stop her, He gets there too late finds her drowned and leaves her safe and sound, dead but perfectly safe.

  • Great voice! Great song...

  • ah hah.. that is the BEAUTY of it... it will always remain a mystery! we will always have to wonder, did Mary drown herself to get away from that old Nebraska town where nobody understood? Or did he help her because she couldn't do it herself? Ahhh, the twists and turns. He said he needed to get back to the river, to leave that old Nebraska town. Mystery.

  • I heard this song years ago. I never got the artist..only the phrase."I left her by the river". I've had that in my head for years. Maybe that's why I'm like I am...nuts. Finally...I found it!!

  • You swear you left her by the river? In your earlier statement you declared that she went walking all alone and never came home. Which was it?

    Mr Marx I am charging you with the murder of Mary. Anything you sing may be used against you in a court of law.

  • was it him? or am i just not getting it?

  • so who killed her?

  • @3nvoy

    probably the corrupted sheriff of this town

  • AmooOOOoooOOOoo

  • Great Tune! :)

  • wicked tune i love it :-)

  • ROBBY ..you never forget your one frist true love as always you love her in your heart forever.i.m sorry that you lost her and things didnt work for you ,,but i know how you fell ..i lost some one just as specail at the river ..but this song robby is true ..it did happen to me ..in a very young age ..and i know the price of life as go on every day please my friend ..never give up on the some ones love ..RICHARD MARX
