[TheSopranosMusic]

16 year old girl. addicted to this :)

[tommyjk99]

Heard this song in the film sea of love, with al pacino, this has to be the best movie song ever!!!!!

[Godzilla52]

thumbs up if you heard this in the movie sea of love

[BOMBOVA]

i meet " fiery " temperamental Edith Lemus 3 years ago on the Internet, A very Beautiful young Woman. Smart in her way, She can slice a man with her words, Flashing eyes, Big smile, hella fine girl. Lost my heart to her, and it seems my mind. Mi corazón es para TI siempre Edith Lemus. Yo he sido expuesto a pensamientos ardientes Latina, una aventura, me gustaría no quería faltar, le doy las gracias,

[StefanR10]

I hear the song by The Simpsons

[twisterfreak23]

im a metal person... yet i just cant stop listening to this song :)

[grayearmuffs0o]

@twisterfreak23 nothing wrong with that music is for everybody. Music is probably the best lover, great music accepts and will never reject you. It makes heartbreak or any kind of pain seem like a waste of precious living time.

[jlcates42]

@grayearmuffs0o amen to that.

[TheStamplover]

Clsssic song!

[nomerrobeslostomates]

thumbs up if you're here because of the simpsons

[cinderella7baby]

I just like this kind of songs..and i can tell you this song is really AMAZING!!!!!!i'm only 13

[YetAnotherUrMomJoke]

Im still in my mother's womb and I think this song is AWESOME!

[BJane58]

I guess if you are gonna write just one hit, it's nice that it is probably one of the greatest songs ever written. It always makes me cry.

[JocelynCastillo818]

im 11 and think this song is great!

[kgrace14]

Im only 99 and 3/4 and I love this song

[g0elephant]

im 15, and i think this song is so beautiful. why wasnt i born in this era? so so beautiful

[snowangel090]

Im only 41 and love this song!

[dedevonne]

@snowangel090 41?

[blume704]

great song...lovely song..

[turbogrammy]

one of my all time faves

[chronicfc2]

This should've been the ending song of Bioshock

[xxxleydi13xxx]

there's a music video for this song! I saw it in TheMissmusicvids channel.

[jabrown45100]

No one can sing a hit better than the original artists-its not just fact, but a sad reality. Sad because other followers that admire his song just falter, try, try, try, but it never comes out right. Phil-you are the pioneer of music.

[Zipgunn1]

@jabrown45100 That's often the case, but what's better is always relative and a matter of personal opinion, but I would like to say:-

Hurt by Johnny Cash blows the original version off the planet, what do you say?

[jabrown45100]

@Zipgunn1

right, or maybe just used to it from the beginning artist. To make your point even bono fide more and fact, Johnny Cash's hits were legend and sounded only excellent from him. And I liked him as a person. But sorry to say, his style of music was lightyears from my taste. My parents loved J. Cash, friends, relatives,etc., except me. I just don't like his style of music.

[xraeddie]

@Zipgunn1 couldn't agree more..no huge Cash fan here but damn if his version doesn't put a tear in my ear every time I hear it.

[jabrown45100]

God Bless your Heart Phil Phillips, your voice will live forever--THANKS FOR YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS TO MUSIC WITH AWESOME ARTISTIC TALENT

[jabrown45100]

Phil Phillips was and always a great singer! It was an outright INJUSTICE that even after his Top of the Charts Hit --Sea Of Love that smashed all other songs for the top 40, when the rights to his song was robbed from Phil. He only received $6,800 for the royalties. Of course he was furious as anyone would be, after all the heart and hard work put into the making of it. Im not sure of the details, just know Phil, got the short end of the deal-unduly unfair.

[resqume853]

is phil Phillips still alive

[first391]

@resqume853 yes, hes 85 (according to Wikipedia lol)

[branksome10]

A family cherished song on a Sunday afternoon after meal time.

[radeangelis2007]

Gracias a todos los que pueden compartir esta música recordando con nostalgia y amor tantos momentos felices.....

[trichomepanther]

thanks, ive heard this song done by 3 different people, finally the original awesome

[dcajun123]

anyone out there has a way to reach Phil Phillips, I'm trying to see if he can perfom a 7 day east caribbean cruise. Want to feature him! Please contact me at dcajun123@yahoo.com Thanks

[bettieboutique]

[katerina4o]

[apeshitdig]

Awesome song. Did they smoke reefer? Of course they did, silly me! Let's all light up right now.

[BBINGHAM032352]

One of my favorite tunes of the 1950s

[MarkArandjus]

Here's an idea - before you give people thumbsup because of how old they are try checking their channel first to see if they're lying :/

Anyway, oldie goldie no doubt about it!

[BEATLE909GRM]

SUPER

[maximilien22]

[TenBlackPandas]

@maximilien22 Dream Lover- Bobby Darin^^

[DeepSoul1960s]

#1 in the R&B charts, #2 in Billboard, #1 in the UK...and then only $6800 earning on this classic song....

This is in my personal Top-100 of all time favourites! Great!

[VashFanboy1]

I'm only 21, but I really love a lot of older music.

[VashFanboy1]

I'm only 21, but I really love a lot of old music.

[tancho321]

Best generation to live!

[dropdeadxhorizon]

this was at the end of a simpsons episode... sooo good.

[avegyrl08]

sounds pretty creepy... cat power made this song sound waaay more beautiful. no offense.. just my opinion [which i am entitled to ♥]

[citizenlen]

@avegyrl08 sorry you're not entitled.

[x3mexicanllamas]

@avegyrl08 - without this song, cat power would not have been able to make it "waaay more" beautiful. Have some respect. creepy?....pft.

[DecemberFallsSeries]

Good song and theme in one of my favorite early Al paccino movie.

[mattbastardsen]

@VIRIATO1942 and Ellen Barkin, YOWSA!



[890slay]

I"d heard this song from the movie "Sea of Love" with Al Pacino.

[dellgriff82]

@890slay same here.It scared the shit out of me!!!

[katehoolahan]

pet

[mkl62]

A Top 5 hit for Phil Phillips in August/September 1959. Well, school has started and a new group of freshmen are entering high school. They were in junior high when the Rock Era began. What would the next four years bring? Only time would tell.

[louieboto]

what a golden oldie! They dont make music like this anymore thats for certain! good choice stacey frazer! xxx

[escobedo13]

you were my pet.

[tlages]

Great song.

[bruno640]

Made MY ol' dry-eyes kinda moisten-up---an' it ain't rainin', either....!!!

[2doom]

Wow!!!!

[TheRuneVideoz]

bad sound quality

[Obeijin]

@TheRuneVideoz They didn't have Bose speakers back then. Some songs were even released in mono.

[TheDittyBags]

@TheRuneVideoz 1931 Quality you mean.

[maggieluvslulu]

not gonna lie, i'm probably going to end playing this song at my wedding. i love this song!

[MrJessika123]

Love this song. Especially when Burton cummings sings it.

[pthompson2005]

so pure and powerful

[imthefrogman]

wow i was just 11 years old when this song came out. and i sang this song to my first wife in 1969. at my mom and dads house she loved it. this song has never left me all these years. but who care.

[Pertesblanches]

@imthefrogman right, i totally don't care dickbrain.

[ILoveLugoff]

A classic of all times. Love this song. Love this version of Sea of Love. Can't, can't be beat. One of my favorites of all times.

[nastypop]

THANKS MY LOVE MARTHAVB

[UmbrellaSex]

This is an amazing song, i love it.

[iLoVeBaNd242]

I was at a concert in Penscola,Florida in 1959 when Phil sang this song. I was 17 years old. Wow how time flys by. Am aimost 68 now.

[timmhg]

@iLoVeBaNd242, You are the same age as my parents. Very nice generation, In 1942 and 1943 born a lot of fantastic artists.

[ducttapekidd]

@iLoVeBaNd242 My dad just turned 57 on Tuesday, he LOVES this kind of music, and he made me grow up on it, haha,, so, I do too to be honest.

[inktable]

@iLoVeBaNd242 wow, that's actually amazing.

[MrElvisGuitar]

@iLoVeBaNd242 You are liar, you don't have 68 years! You are GREATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Buut, you didn't nice for people have 68 years old.

[Darksunshinerain87]

@iLoVeBaNd242 You were lucky to have been 17 at that time. Best music ever.

[deadforsakenn]

@iLoVeBaNd242 You are 68 and you are using internet?

Either you are 12 years old kid lying ..or you are really 68 using internet-then you need to place a bullet to your head...

Anyway..nolife in both ways

[iLoVeBaNd242]

@deadforsakenn Um my dad posted that and yes he is 68 and he knows how to use the internet. Is there a problem with that because I don't see one. :)

[deadforsakenn]

@iLoVeBaNd242 Nah ,there are no problems at all..Its just sad...

I mean you are from USA,right? Then its useless to explain you.

[deadforsakenn]

@DQDarwin Yeah child ..and now jump off the bridge and do world a favor ...

[jkvinyl1]

@deadforsakenn --You are sad

[DQDarwin]

@deadforsakenn Here take this candy and go play in the corner. Never realize the internet got to its point we now see because of the present 68 year olds. Have someone subtract 25 from 68 then subtract that from the current year and tell you about the state of the internet back then. (I know math it is hard but it can be done).

Still watch for mirrors, you might not like what you see.

[deadforsakenn]

@DQDarwin I just clicked your name and when i saw Canada i knew this post will be short.

Kid ...i know that you were victim of fathers incest and i know other kids were stealing you money in school but thats not the reason to whine over internet ....

I mean ..I know you trip in ur head that you are Tony Montana...But please...jump off the bridge and do world a favour you stinky little scum.

Typical sociopath. Morons like you usually end on americasmostwanted ...fuck off psycho traumized defect

[DQDarwin]

@deadforsakenn that took you 3 weeks to come up with.Your a waste of time enough said:)

[deadforsakenn]

@DQDarwin Yeah child ...it took me 3 weeks...I am not 20 hours infront of monitor like you are...Pathethic nolifer trying to cover his anger with fake smiles....

So weak...

I mean..i am thinking now..and i really don't know what to say....because ..theres no hope 4 ur sad life for sure...and..i tried to teach you ,son,but no hope 4 you..

Go go please reply again..just to show me and other people how i was right about you.Right about you that you cannot take truth so u must whine and spam

[deadforsakenn]

@DQDarwin Internet top guys..I love this sort of morons.

You lived ,you live and you will die in imaginary world...

Theres no hope for your sad and pathethic life.

Please ,give us more drama :)

[DQDarwin]

@deadforsakenn looks notices bad smell, smiles and leaves, lol

[13eddiie13]

@iLoVeBaNd242 hope youve had a great life so far, you have so much more to go (:

[MadkittenzK]

[Bulldogtastic]

My grandma loves this song :D

[arayofsunshine]

this is the stupidest song ever the lyricals dont take any talent to write an 8 year old retarded kid could write this

[RIXTMP]

stupit? that´s our opinion, even if it is, so what?.........I´d rather be stupid,childish,inocent and happy than an intelectual and intelligent jerk. We´ll all die together anyway regardless our stupidity or our lack of it. I´d rather be a kid all my life and never knowing how stupid I am.

[guyNbluejeans]

Very nice!!

[chickenfruithead]

ive nver heard the original version but i LOVE the one from the movie Juno.!!

[blakbobspacepirate13]

it's a cover by Cat Power

[TheRedMike]

I dig Cat Power but nothing beats the original version by the man who wrote it.

[Dannyboy855]

u said it motherfucker!!!

[moomay11649]

AWSUM!

MOOZ

[ilovejackblack4444]

Cat powers version is better

[emywiscious]

@ilovejackblack4444 dumbass

[CodexAlimentarius1]

Sick of their wars, sick of their economic collapses, sick of their pornography, sick of their usury, sick of their lies, sick of their deceitfulness. God please help us all from these evil scum running the world. God bless all human beings. Our leaders or should I say dictators aren't human.

[SOUPN4ZI]

someones emotional.

[TheFalconracer]

Thank for Posting this Classic Swamp-Pop song. Someone mentions the emotion of the singer. This is all part of the Swamp-Pop music, perhaps that is one of the reason swamp-pop is still doing well in Louisiana and East Texas. Thanks again for the Post!

[grayearmuffs0o]

oh man, I just cried. I liked the Cat Power cover a lot but the original definitely takes the cake. Gotta love the classics.

[finnwesjohn]

I like this version better because it has more emotion

[mobiliti25]

Love Song!(L)_(L)

[19thcentury]

This was the song of the prom of 1959. We were so innocent!

[fntime]

@19thcentury No you weren't, the biggest carnard, that the 60's brought on the sex revolution, actually, anyone who looks at the 50's objectivily, will realize, particularily in the second half of the 50's, new ideas exploded in every field. "Church, kitchen and kids" were big for the WW2 and depression generation, but bubbling underneath, was a tidal wave of change, that was planted in 50's flowered in the 60's. Back then, people did it, didn't talk so much about it!

[dbpgh]

@19thcentury not by choice!

[frogsoda]

Actually, Robert Plant's version is really far from this one.

[MichelleTheHollie]

I like cat power's version better for it's modernity, but this one has definitely earned some major respect from me. Great song!

[bowdownandobey]

my girlfriend(soon to be wife) dedicated cat power's cover of this song to me.

when i listened to it it sounded extremely familiar and remembered i had THIS one in my "old shit" music folder, which is filled with music from the 20's-60's time period.

i listened to it and feel like singing it to her.. aha..

i love her so much,

i miss her so much..

fuck

[crazyhorz]

Sounds spooky!

[moomay11649]

This song brings back so many good memories.

Mooz

[younganthony1]

watch the film same name as song al pahcino classic

[carlosb1]

youll be suprise how much chick dig these songs! try it youll see play them on your car they love it!

[YATES001]

yes i agree with you dude :-D

[MeggieMiami]

wow i love this song :D and the movie is great, too

thanks for posting

[naughtynea13]

I sing this song to my one-year-old every night when I put him to bed. Of all the versions this is the one I like the best and this is the way I always sing it to him. :) My Aunt shared it with me when we went on a road trip together and I have a lot of fond memories associated with it. I was singing it to my baby long before I ever saw Juno....

[7mla]

I Originally listened to Cat Powers Version and i thought that was really good because i like that style more but this original one is great, better than Cat Powers cover

[EnokiSkai]

I thought the Cat Power version would be better, but this is really good.

[987654321boum]

i like this song but you gotta admit that the background humming is really off key

[Melloout69]

cat power

[Melloout69]

cat power

[ADELECG85]

I love this song and it came out nearly 30 years before I was born!!

[PandaLoLzZ]

@ADELECG85 me toooooo

[gnomedomesyndrome]

Gives me the warm fuzzies - in nearly every form. Original, "original," or its numerous reincarnations... Beautiful AND timeless (which is why a lot of people like this cover or that cover better; what one hears first is often one's favorite version).

Certain people need to learn to respect others' tastes and opinions. And other people need to cease trolling just to spew facts and tell others how wrong they are. Maybe she's right, maybe he's right. Either way, stop bickering. Listen. And let go.

[leecolvin79]

cat power and the honeydrippers defo do this tune justice but this is the winner for me everytime. absolute classic!!!

[metalheadoj666]

Unfortuneatley mate...the day that happens is the day i grow wings.

[WhatsGoinOnSon]

HONEYDRIPPERS

[skateboarderlucc]

who gives a fuck, its a beautiful song and you should leave it at that.

[ASHLEYANNExVANDEVEN]

Here, This is a promise. I will look for the original 45 in my boyfriends house... And the day I find it, I will take a picture of it post it on here and be done with it, until then this pointless argument is through.

[ASHLEYANNExVANDEVEN]

I never said it was recorded in the '30's... >_> It was Cookie and the Berry Cups, I'm not around my boyfriends grandfather so I can't ask him but, you were just a musician in the song you obviously don't know where he got the song from, you got ripped off being paid only $55. I know my info's correct and I apologize that you don't know where the song cam from. Im done with your bs.

[AngelaRed]

I love this song!!! since I was a teen in the 90's!!

[meems102393]

This is my wedding song. Ahhhhhhh....

[ASHLEYANNExVANDEVEN]

This song was recorded in the '50's. Not the 30's... My boyfriends grandfather has the original 45 that he sang in. His producer sold the song to Phil Phillips while the band mates were away for [approx.] $500. and from their Phil Phillips made it a hit.

[frankb8355]

Sea of Love was recorded in 1959. John Phillip Baptiste (aka Phil Phillips was born in 1931. Phil wrote the song, he did not buy it for $500. Phil never had $5 much less $500. He was a share cropper..Someone told you a BS story. You did not even get the damn date of the recording session right..I was there, you , your boyfriend,and his grandfather as well as the "producer" were not.

[ASHLEYANNExVANDEVEN]

Tell that to the people who own the original 45 with my boyfriends grandfather in it BEFORE Phil Phillips even knew the song existed. Please because Ill continue to laugh at you. YOU were not there sorry. You showed up AFTER the song had been recorded with the ORIGINAL owners.

[frankb8355]

Please tell us the record label and date of what you claim is the original recording, as well as the "artist" who made the recording. Also tell us about the law suit which came about because of the "producers" sale of someone elses song.The 1931 date you whined about is Phil's birth date not the recording date.

[ASHLEYANNExVANDEVEN]

Oh and just by the way... "You did not even get the damn date of the recording session right"

I never put a date. Fail.

[smr6281]

I love this song.10 years ago I watched my grandparents dance to this song. Since then, they've both passed, but when I hear this song it brings back my favorite memory of them

[mickeyg57]

Just Great... A little better than Bobby Darrins ....

[june18th1988]

a lot better!
