  • Always have loved this song by Grayson. At times he sounds a bit like Sam Cooke to me while singing this tune. Cheers..

    Wayne..

  • I hope she didn't fly with that luggage ... she probably got hit with overweight bag fees.

  • who cares when you were born good music is great music no matter what era

  • This is the greatest video clip of all time

  • Incidently, the album "Blind to Reason" to which this song comes off, is a gem! This talented chap deserved more than just this hit. -daz in oz

  • WOW I LOVE IT !!

  • Olivia Newton-John sang this too.

  • Is that Mr. Echo from LOST singing from the suitcase???

  • Fuck Yea! This song is so pimpin'..

  • Awesome.......................­................

  • Grayson Hugh reminds me of Sam Cooke. :)

  • This is REAL MUSIC!

  • i was just about to change the channel but i dropped the remote, im so glad i dropped it and didnt change the channel or else i would never have found this song

  • i was born in the 80s so fuck you tenaki8

    it was so rad

  • @juggaloleech what a dick lol

  • Amazing Voice.. I'm 33. old enough to remember this. Love it.

  • What a classy piece of R&B! Love the vid too.

    Loved this back in tha day; found bits of the lyrics coming to mind while working today, pieced a few phrases together, searched tha 'tube and voila! A little trip down memory lane! Now to work the chords and grab the guit!

  • I first heard Grayson Hugh when I was pregnant with my 2nd son in 1989. Guess what I named him? Yup, I not only loved Grayson Hugh's voice and music but I loved his name. Now I hear it all over the place. Oddly...my son is 22 now and kind of looks like GH. Hmm. ;)

  • great song! great vocals! video is a little strange though...

  • When I was trying to remember the name of this track my brain went to a christian artist Bryan Duncan's song Mercy Me for some reason. 

  • Brings back so many memories...

  • 3:39 SURPRISE BLOWJORB

  • Is that adabesi from oz?

  • hugh,

    FANTASTIC !!!!

    billywilliams

  • God, I LOVE this song! Close your eyes and you'd swear you were hearing Sam Cooke. Grayson rocks! Time for a comeback tour methinks, lets start a petition!!!

  • Is that Tony Todd from the "Final Destination" films as the backup singer on the right of the screen?

  • This track deserves 2,610,000 views not 261,000

  • what is the name of the redhead?

  • dis da bomb!

  • Grayson hit #19 in Billboard, 9-9-89. God bless ya, for postin' it.Thanx! Have a great weekend!

  • i love this song. it always fill me with so many emotions

  • I think he, like me, listened to a lot of Sam Cooke.  His vocal style, pitch, and tone are almost identical. Great stuff!

  • squiggles64's mrs loves this song yup i do....

  • Why is this guy not a major star???

  • Yes it is Mr Echo

  • Is the black background singer on the left Mr. Echo from Lost?

  • Is it just me, or does Grayson Hugh sound a lot like the great Sam Cooke?

  • HE'S HOT!!!!

  • I'm 18 years old..and this song is amazing. The artist is amazing.. wish i was born in the 80s!

  • @tenaki8 Good Taste...you should have been born in the 70s to appreciate the 80s

  • @mrpentium Yeah. I was born early 80's but i consider myself as growing up in the 80's and appreciating it since i did have an atari 2600, nes, and of course the music, like this song :0

    People still listened to the radio and watched tv back then(no mp3 or net), so it was kind of hard to not like some songs.

  • @mrpentium This is true.......<~ 77

  • @mrpentium  you don't need the 80's to appreciate them!

  • @tenaki8 I am 49, born January 09, 1962, on the same day of the year that former U.S. President Richard M. Nixon, former rock singer Joan Baez and the same day of the year that Bob Denver, the guy who played "Gilligan" on "Gilligan's Island", was born. Point being, you were born just RIGHT, sweetie! Despite our age difference, you recognize GOO MUSIC! BRAVO! I first heard this song on MOR Music TV and I became a FAN! Good music is just good and age has NOTHING to do with it! ;) ... God bless!

  • @tenaki8 I am soon to be 50! Just shows you have TASTE! LOL ... Be glad for when you were born. You are TOPS with me! ... God bless and HUGS!

  • Take the slash out. lol

  • You should have been born in the 50's to appreciate the 60's 70's 80's and 90's

  • Great tune by a special talent. Had put out a few cd's in years past. All are very good.

  • Why isn't Grayson Hugh mentioned with the best ever? This guy just flat out killed this song.

  • This must have been before Simon Adebisi (OZ) went to prison. The guy in the left suitcase!

  • why is grayson dressed like a black panther?

  • @mokiprop cos he sounds like a black man singing lol

  • @mokiprop Sorry, but he looks GOOD dressed this way!

  • @LonzaLJohnsonFarkas The man is FINE!

  • Love this one!

  • Spoke with Grayson via email about a year ago........glad the record company finally released this.

  • as an old headbanger i have to say from the 1st time i heard this song i fucking loved it

  • @DragonTattooGirlxx Makes sense. You're about the same age as my oldest daughter, and I caught her listening to the Smiths one day. I was never more proud !

  • @DragonTattooGirlxx Grayson Hugh actually monitors this channel and has a new CD. BTW, how did you get into The Smiths? They disbanded before you were even born.

  • @mrpentium Those backup singers are the smiths? I looked for stuff on here by them and only found stuff from a 80's band that did the original song from the theme to the tv show charmed. I still have in perfect working condition the cassette of this album! Love Grayson, or for that matter almost all music. Grayson is one of the few artists people mistake for something he isn't, much like rick astley was.

  • Awesome song man!!!!!!

  • Fixin' to get some head at 3:38

  • From back in the day on VH1's Top 30 countdown!! I remember this!! It should of been a bigger hit than this!!

  • Comment removed

  • Love it

  • where can I download this?!?!?? It's nowhere to be found in sweden :(

  • I though he was black O__O

  • @ASBELanime Me 2!!! HAHAHAHA

  • @mikaelaserholt He has such a deep voice,Its so nice(:

  • @ASBELanime I know!!! I Love it! So much soul!!!

  • YESSSSSSSSSS!!!! LOVE IT MAN LOOOOOVVVVVEEEEEE IT!!!!! MISS THIS SONG GLAD TO HAVE FOUND IT ON HERE.

  • Wow. Blast from the past. Loved this track. Great voice. Very soulful. Shame didn't hear more from such a talented man.

  • What a handsome man you are and what a fantastic voice!!

  • what ever happened to harmonizing?

  • I love this song; I hate when copyrights or whatever cause a song you already had be found again. This is is such a great song - late 70s or early 80s I believe. When you have love you have to take care of it - just like anything else you value. Love is best when it grows because the alternative is no love at all. Thanks for a great post.

  • whoever gave negative votes to this song must have been born without blood

  • I have alway's loved this song

  • This guys the man

  • I was so in love with the girl in this clip when I was a kid lol

  • I adore this song. What a great freaking groove. And a cute video too.

  • This song and video are absolutely awesome.

  • @graysonhugh1 hey, grayson, how about some motown covers? just askin, take care, man

  • @RonyMexico hey rony...he and I juz became facebook friends...look up Grayson Hugh...he's there and a new album!!

  • blast from the past! Love this track. Reminds me of da good ol days!! Nice harmonies and a sweet vid..

  • HA! the girl in the background, on the left, with the short hair and big earrings is the finest woman in this video, much better than the redhead! She is the one he should be singing to!

  • Wow...it's been so long since I last heard this song.....still good...

  • that guy was enjoying himself until he got stuffed back into his suit case lol look at how he expresses himself on the word door 1:55

  • Amazing song even though i'm almost 34 years and never been in love, hell, I never even had a girlfriend. Still love this song though.

    Peace

  • Wow, cant believe this is a white guy singing this, great voice

  • I like this song. However, the back up is the best part of this song

  • wow. i always thought this guy was black...great voice...

  • he sounds a bit like sam cooke

  • @soulkiss68 Now I know why you're sorry

  • @mrpentium LOL!

  • @soulkiss68 Get the wax ouuta your ears laddie, she doesn't hold a candle to Grayson's version, it aint even sorta close. 

  • @soulkiss68, ouch. Just ouch.

  • @soulkiss68 sorry, but not even on the same playing field, can't choke down any newt john shit

  • Lovely video — funny, poignant.

    Olivia Newton-John originally sang this as Can't we talk it over in bed.

    I find Grayson's lighter and more catchy; Olivia's more richly feminine.

  • omg that red head women is smokin hot!!!

    I'll tap her any day!!!!!!!!

  • Rachel Fury !! Was one of Pink Floyds back up gals in the 80`s ! 

  • @alcowboy1  I dont think so. I believe they're all actors....one of which was on LOST

  • @mrpentium I dont know about the 2nd chick. But I can assure you the backup singer on the left, is in fact Rachel Fury !!

  • @mrpentium which girl from lost was it?

  • @jacobnz2 one of the guys was in LOST. Not the girls. The guy on the left. The other guy is an actor as well (British), who has written to this page. Check the comments

  • @mrpentium U state Rachel Fury is on the Right 10 mos. ago & on the Left 2 weeks ago...which is it u mean? Left or Right at what point in the vid?

    I do not think either actress in the G-Hu vid looks like the pics of Rachel Fury in the Pink Floyd GGITS vid. Can u cite yor source for it definitively being Rachel F?

    The G-Hu girl on the right at 1:26 looks cheerfully cute w/no gaps between her teeth. R-Fur in the Floyd vid looks tougher, more intense & has a big gap between her 2 front teeth.

  • @verselove69 I never said that.  Someone who wrote here did. I dont think it is her.

  • @mrpentium U R correct, my apologies, Mr. P. My comment was meant for alcowby1.

  • best memories...thanx artie.....

  • GREAT song..

    sam cook feel to it..

  • Just saw him playing live tonight in a restaurant. He plays every month or 2 at the same restaurant near where I live and he doesn't seem to perform anywhere else. But he's still pretty tight. Jose Feliciano was there too tonight.

  • @krazjazzfan  where and what restaurant? that would be awesome to be there

  • @sirtedd Smokin' with chris in southington, connecticut

  • Nice tune....

  • @aben7559 ikr

  • What Year Is This Cause I Remember This And I Never Knew He Was White Until Now What Happened 2 These Days Makes You Think Back Way Back Dont It

  • @kingquadrider79 This song came out in 1989.

  • I absolutely love this song.

    One thing that makes this clip so amazing is the facial expressions they all use.. they just add a sense of character to the entire song that just brings it to life.. that cheeky grin on her face when shes lying on the bed just makes my day lol.

  • @NismoPower69 mine is at 2:07 :)

  • I used to sing to this to my ex partner, yet im still asking myself why it didnt work out, im still trying to find answers.....

  • Hit #9 AC, #19 pop in Billboard. God bless!

  • why isn't this song available as an mp3? Itunes..walmart..anywhere. Love it but i'm tired of going to youtube to be able to hear it.

  • @roofhelp Here's a tip......'Ask & Record'.

  • We saw Grayson and his wife sing at a local venue last night and I was blown away-if you getthe opportunity to see them play I strongly recommend you do so. I guarantee you will not be disapointed-

  • We had almost forgot about this song. Digging through some old cassette tapes this evening and found one of the few single cassettes we ever bought. It was a favorite of ours back when our sweet kids were young. It still brings a smile to us. Thank you very much for sharing.

  • I LOVE THIS..................sorry, I do.

  • that guy was enjoying himself until he got stuffed back into his suit case lol look at how he expresses himself on the word door 1:55
