  • One of my favorite song by far

  • This song says everything. Listening while I write this. I wish I knew what I was fighting back then. I wish I knew then what I know now. Tracy, I loved you then. I love you now. I always will. You have my heart - even though we're not together - please remember all the good times.

    I love you my angel, even now.

    Chris x

  • holly i cant break the spell , even now , the first day of 2012 i awake thinking of you. Despite everything and every word of this song i am still totally under your spell. But i know you are in a better place , but even now . ¥

  • ¥ thinking of you in phuket (christmas 2012) yes - even now!

  • This says it all...I still feel the same after 30 years so I guess I'll feel like this till I die....

  • The greatest musician ever, no dispute.

  • @kyler, thanks buddy. One day at a time, one step at a time............

  • Saw Barry sing this live in Las Vegas in 2007 with my wife. She left me in 2008........"And how I wish you knew, even now". Still love you P. xxxxxxxxxx

  • @Marc3ism I'm sorry man....... :/

  • This song came out the year I graduated from college. It reminds me of a love that tore out my heart 2 years prior. Oh Betty P, how I loved you and have thought of you through the years. My heart was never really been the same so I thought. You had been my inspiration. I still have the memories. I made something out of my life without you and found some else. 35 yrs later you contact me and asked me how I am. All I can say is I'm fine. Yeah even now says it all.

  • It's so hard for me to believe, I still feel the same way about a long lost love- it's incredible-when we found each other again and will meet someday. She even ask me about this song.

  • thank you holly, from harvey. ¥

  • anybody that has ever loved anybody has just one person come to mind when they hear this song...im 20 years old and with my generation of music i dont think anything has ever hit me so hard like this song did...its as if my exact memories of someone was put into perfect melody and expressed beyond correction

  • my god, what a beautiful song!!!

  • been a long time...i still miss him and love him very much. This song makes me miss him even more. I cant believe it still could hurt so bad either.....

  • My fiance died nearly ten years ago and it still makes me so so sad, even tho someone else still cares for me i still cannot believe it hurts this much after this much time

  • I've always loved this song, I guess we've all got a lost love from our past and it reminds us that we still think of them and wonder how they're doing

  • sme fuck you movin on now

  • @sapphirebloo2001 - Thanks for the good wishes. Yes - we are blissfully happy thanks. A lot has come to light about the time we parted all those years ago - mainly that her (soon to be ex) husband lied his way into her life and spoiled the chance we had all those years ago. She has been waiting for me to "come home" for over 25 years and I had no idea how unhappy she was. We are older and have lost the chance at OUR family but - who cares? We still love each other and that's what matters.

  • It's been 35+ years and I still think of you and what might have been.

  • Got to share this with a being that touched my heart like some posts on this vid. it is fantastic. I do not remember this tune of Barry's and he was one of my fave's. Of course being organized-religion being we had to turn that radio station to a christian one when we saw mom coming home. Sad how conditioned we were. Huh?? Well this is a most delightful son. Barry has a most delicious voice. <3 to all Here.:-) <3

  • thanks for the song!u are my only one forever,you"ll live in my heart to eternity,God knows!

  • even now,,,i still rememeber....you know who u r...pooh

  • Why does every song...make me think of him? I'm better off here; I'm safe. I'm happy. I'm loved.

    Then why does he cross my mind?

  • That's id for you David Strong.you know how I love you. But its not gonna be together.

  • I'm a heterosexual male teenage Barry fan. Wat.

  • @castrochris94 , sounds like your a romantic..nothing wrong with that. You have good taste in music!

  • @castrochris94

    "Castro chris?" and you're straight? LMAO

  • If you like Barry Manilow songs, check out my channel. I play a few on piano and more coming. I don't want to be famous, it's just for those who like music.

    -Thanks

  • Love is the best feeling ever...but also the worse if things go wrong :(

  • certain love lives on forever it doesn't mean we want to go back in time but we will never forget LOVE is the best feeling in the world

  • There are soul mates out there. There is that 'right person'. Not every person is right for everybody, because God made people specifically for a person. I don't know if everyone has a soul mate, but I know I do. No one else has ever been able to satisfy me emotionally, physically, and in every way, the way he does. My husband, God, my daughter, and me are a family, and I am so blessed to have them in my life =)

  • Thumbs up if you're a hetero teen boy :o

  • @castrochris94 I can thumbs up to that!

  • I still remember you always... Srh.. if only I knew and saw you. Im glad your happy.

  • a song that takes me back to when my love was still with us

  • still going crazty about her now, hope she opk.

  • I believe that this song refers to your first TRUE love, you may love others in different degrees, but there will never be another one like the first one, and no matter how much you may love someone else, it will never be the same. There are exceptions, but most of us share this fate. Why else would we have a 50% divorce rate?

  • This takes me back years to a lost love . Things i wish i had said and yes things i wish i had'nt . She was the love of my life but i was young and dumb . I wish her the best

  • This is a beautiful song. I have always loved it ever since the album first came out so many years ago. It's interesting how a great song seems to be timeless. Each time I hear it, it seems new again.

  • I understand completely I have loved two women and it hurts

  • i really love this song..it proves that you can love two people at the same time..i think all of us, men and women, have gone through this at one time in our lives...so, so true....

  • even now I still love you....

  • I still lov

    e you..

  • There are really kind and sincere people here and this is very comforting for someone like me, I thank all of you so much!.

  • There are really sincere and kind people here and this is very comforting for someone like me, I thank all of you so much!.

  • A song that has meant so very much to me for more years than I care to remember.

    How lucky can you get - I have found her again and the feeling is STILL the same for both of us!!

    Still makes me regret the wasted years though.

  • Such a beautiful song. It's about his grandad.Thanks Bazza.

  • This is my all time favorite song by barry....I can honestly say that he has the best and most unique voice on the planet. it doesn't matter where you are or what's going on, when his songs come on the radio, you KNOW immediately who it is...that's the power of God given talent! Sadly, I've never seen him in concert. I'm 43 and it's too late, but I do so appreciate his music!

  • You're not ugly, everything is in your mind. Be positive. Thank God 'cause you're here and now.

    Be grateful. I'm sure somebody loves you :)

  • So true......will always hurt so bad!

  • I've been reading many of the comments and everyone seems to have their own personal story of unrequieted love, lovelorn and lovelost. Consider yourselves lucky everyone,I was born ugly, no matter how my mother dressed me, even with pretty little dresses it didn't change my hideous face.I was a funny looking little girl and now i'm a funny looking old lady, who never married.Through Barry, i've been able to find a glimmer of hope and inspiration, otherwise I would have no reason to live.

  • @mistressofaminer You're not ugly.Beauty comes within. Be posotive and always think that people like you for just being you.

  • @mistressofaminer You're probably not ugly all those men who never were interested in you were Blind and Stupid to not see a beautiful and nice girl in you.

  • 21 years ago... And the world has changed so much since you've been gone. You're married and I'm married, but ... Even now I still remember and the feeling's still the same. I swear I think of you every day... Why it's still so hard without you?.

    Different people and different countries y

    Todavia te AMO!!! I can't believe it!

  • Still one of my all time favs - never get tired of seeing him in front of me singing this one - sigh!

  • @Stroppyblonde73

    You crazy blonde fool. This is horrible music. But I will always love you. My Shriley, QE, Aussie

  • Part of the reason i lost the only real chance at love i'll ever have was not being able to open up and show her how much i loved her. I said it in words at times but not in deed. Let this be a lesson for other men not to make the same mistake i did. Once it's over you can't go back so if you already have a good woman don't take her affection for you for granted. SHOW her that you love her before you lose her forever.....

  • This is for Linda (Lynn) Marie Gobbo from the Montgomeryville area in PA. I tried to tell you back at Thanksgiving on facebook after 30 years apart how i felt about you but we shared a few memories then parted again for a (final) second time. I had hoped we could just be friends but maybe you're right, it's better for all this way. I'll always love you anyway Lynn.....i'm married for years now and yet I'll always think of you whenever i hear this song.....Good luck(even now)to you.....Michael

  • For Paul:

    "In the weeks we'd been thrown together that summer, our lives had scarcely touched, but we had crossed to the other bank, where time stops and heaven reaches down to earth and gives us that ration of what is from birth divinely ours.

    We looked the other way. We spoke about everything but. But we've always known, and not saying anything now confirmed it all the more. We had found the stars, you and I. And that is given only once."--Call me by Your Name, Andre Aciman.

  • To the one I let go long long ago (in 92)...I hope you're doing great where ever u r.....I still think of you.. even now...

  • Barry's Very Best! :) 

  • I married somebody else but loved another and 30+ years on its still the same. I still love the other. My tears are for what I ahve missed and so want, Even Now .

  • I was driving somewhere, years ago, I was alone and this song came on, I think I might have heard it before but that day I listened and started crying, I actually pulled over to the side of the road. I thought about Richard and was so sad that I didn't marry him. I broke up with him, and I still love him 28 years later. Pathetic, sad and yes a lot of people feel this way. You are not alone.

  • I YOU LOVE SOMETHING SET IT FREE IF IT COMES BACK KILL IT COVER YOUR TRACKS PS ITS A JOKE THE PS ITS A JOKE PART

  • Gale, when I hear this song I think about you. The lyrics are forever etched in my mind as are your brown eyes and devilment smile. I just couldn't handle love at that stage of my life and I tried in vain to hold on to you until I could be ready. The break-up was the most painful experience I ever had. I later tried to hate you, but realized later that I knew all along something wasn't right. Be well, and know that you're loved.

  • GOD THIS SONG REMINDS ME OF MY HIGH SCHOOL FIRST LOVE. I CAN NOT HELP IT . I LOVE MY HUSBAND AND THANK GOD I HAVE HIM BUT ONCE IN A WHILE I THINK OF MY FIRST LOVE . HE HAS NEVER LEFT MY HEART. HE BROKE IT REAL BAD.ANYONE OUT THERE FEEL THE SAME? I DO LOVE AND ADORE MY HUSBAND HELP I HOPE I AM NOT ALONE IN MY THOUGHTS THEIR HAS TO BE BE MORE PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT FEEL THIS WAY. I AM NOT A BAD PERSON JUST AN EMOTIONAL ONE WHO MOVES ON BUT DOES NOT FORGET HER FIRST MAN THE ONE WHO FIRST MADE YOU 1

  • @boredinhialeah Oh no, you're not alone - I have these feelings all the time about my first girlfriend even though we broke up nearly 30 years ago ... 3 or 4 times a year I drive to the village she lived in (a 60 mile round trip) just to look at the house she lived in, it hasn't changed at all! Why is it so hard to let go?

  • @boredinhialeah It's my experience that, once we've loved someone, that love never dies. Though contact may end, either involuntarily or by choice, that person still has a place in our hearts. That doesn't mean you can't love another, nor that you're unfaithful if new love comes and the older love still lives in your heart; that's just how love is. In the end, love in the broadest sense is meant to bind us all; what you're experiencing is just love evolving in a somewhat imperfect world.

  • @Tigerpaws9097826 I disagree.........I would find it impossible to love two ppl that is if you're not referring to love for family etc

  • @Tigerpaws9097826 I could not have said it any better myself, bravo :)

  • @boredinhialeah No you are not bad you are like me. Apart from I dont love my husband and I do love my old flame

  • GOD THIS SONG REMINDS ME OF MY HIGH SCHOOL FIRST LOVE. I CAN NOT HELP IT . I LOVE MY HUSBAND AND THANK GOD I HAVE HIM BUT ONCE IN A WHILE I THINK OF MY FIRST LOVE . HE HAS NEVER LEFT MY HEART. HE BROKE IT REAL BAD.ANYONE OUT THERE FEEL THE SAME? I DO LOVE AND ADORE MY HUSBAND HELP

  • Where did I go?

    That person I was. The person who sat and sang along with this song and was so in love I just knew the world would never be the same again?

    Where did that love go, that heart that kept beating just to hear him call my name?

    ...

    yes, yes and yes.................. I wonder WHO Barry wrote it for????

  • @scaaty79 he wrote the music, but not the lyrics

  • kem, still love you.. miss you and think of you a lot. you showed me real love - never been like us ever again.. how did i get to be almost 50 and never love again??

  • @nuttycabbie wow....Im kinda confused who was my first love but I had my first relationship when I was 14, we dated for almost 4 years until I went to college and my world became wider for me I had a change of heart and I left him. My husband was my second boyfriend then the third one was my last and i think my first love bec I just didnt feel the same to the first and second relationship I had. Now married with my husband but still thinking about him even after 5 years.

  • I use to Date Barry I used to call Him BaaBaa

  • @mattdaddyful I clearly married to the wrong man!! I hope you enjoy every minute of it. I have been many times (without the aid of a sparkly top or big banner!) and even the ex who took me under duress enjoyed it. However new husband new times and he doesn't get it!

  • @Mumsieish your so funny...lol...I actually grew up with BARRY,Neil Diamond,and BARBARA...GOD BLESS YOU..MY MOM IS STILL MY BEST FRIEND

  • Hey kid its been 30 years, I never forget you, hope you are still alive, wow the time flys..

  • this song, like alot of others by Barry Manilow, reminds me of my best friend, my mom who i lost 7 yrs ago but feels like yesterday..She got me to love Barry Manilows music. Thanks! I listen to this CD every sunday because it was a sunday that my mom passed away. She saw him in concert once and it was the best time of her life///

  • Glenn I wonder where you are and if you think of me.....my only regret in life is never having the courage to say "I love you"

  • Doona Lee kingery or if someone knows her, please e-mail me at tinsoldier@live.com.

    I just want to tell her that even though it has been a long time scince we saw each other, I stiil care very much for her, and how sorry I have been for hurting her.

  • Amazing song and amazing lyrics..It reminds of what i had nad threw it all away. I miss you and i love you both forever (bex n holly)xx

  • Donna Lee Kingery, you are the only woman, I will ever love with all my heart, know matter what you think of me, my love for you will remain very true and very strong.

    I would give my life to tell you how badly I feel everyday, and that the hurt I caused you eats away at my own heart everyday.

    GOD PLEASE BELIEVE ME WHEN I SAY, I STILL LOVE YOU

  • @MultiTinsoldier I feel your pain brother but just remember one thing. People that are in our past for whatever reason belong there no matter what you did to possibly cause it.. There is a bigger power here & Don't question it at all.. The fact that we love someone doesn't mean we belong with them much as it hurts.. Hurt goes away. ALL this means is that a different better door will open for you in the near future...

  • This song reminds me of a very special woman, that only god and the angels could create.

    Her name is Donna Lee Kingery of Blue Island, Illinois.

    She was the love of a lifetime, but I severely broke her heart, broke her trust, and all in all hurt her badly.

    I pay for that hurt everyday of my life and I would like nothing more to say I am very sorry, and that I still love her.

    If someone knows her please relay this to her.

  • theres a "joke your so white you make barry manilow look like a brother" lol.

  • The story is cool. Barry Manilow's friend wrote the lyrics. He said was really about his ex. Sad song.

  • Very sad song!

  • I think of my best friend in HS...Pam B. We used to sing this stuff to the tops of our lungs....great memories.....hope all is well with you Pam!

  • Lyrics of the song speaks my heart... very PAINFUL... 

  • YES IT HURTS!! but it's the kind that you just can't forget because the feelings was so, so good before the tragic event happened.. So you just have to treasure the memories of you together - JUST YOU TOGETHER!!!

  • Hey G - 20+ years after we were forced to part every word of this song cuts like a knife because it could be about us. You were the love of my life and you still are. Mostly I can smile at the memories but when I hear this song I mostly just cry at what we had and what could have been.

  • Ahhhhhhhh i miss my ex soooo much. I can't stop balling. I will never find anyone like her again. At least you will always love me Barry.

  • When you know you have found your soulmate in life hang on to him/her and know that it really is that good, and that you really do deserve it! Don't throw it away to fear, or family or peer pressure. Only the two of you know what you feel together and what amazing chemistry you have. Soul-mates are rare. Embrace your soul-mate and never ever let them down. Protect them with all of your heart. I lost my soul-mate to stupidity and fear. I'm fighting like mad to earn their trust. When your heart o

  • Barry Manilow,

    Why is this so true in life..

    You wrote some profound lyrics.

  • This song reminds me of my lost love. He married someone while we were going out. He was my best friend. We were inseparable. Due to his culture, he had a wife already picked for him. I did not know he was married for a month when he returned home. I don't know if I will ever recover from that. I have a great new man, but my heart belongs to him. This song says it all. Best song ever !

  • to my husband, i dedicate this song for you..."even now"

  • I'm sorry things didn't work out between us, even though it was mostly your fault...

    I still think of you. It still hurts even though I don't want to be anywhere near you. Fuck!

  • 35 yrs later and it still hurts. Every word of this song is so true. But we go forward as we must, but can't help but return to that first love.

  • @greenjello74 you are so right !!

  • Even now 35 yrs later, you never forget and the hurt is still there.

  • What a great song. Even though I'm fairly young I feel I know exactly wht hes talking about.

  • love this song and yes it s so very true anne, I love him as my friend now though which is great for me because somepeople move on and never talk again and talking to him has been the time of my life Jennifer

  • Where did I go?

    That person I was. The person who sat and sang along with this song and was so in love I just knew the world would never be the same again?

    Where did that love go, that heart that kept beating just to hear him call my name?

    ...
