[kemetstry]

This song made me her fan

[joeeregulah]

A classic anthem, about real world situations...loved it...LOVE IT :0)!

Blessings to you, Oleta, for singing my heart's poem back in the good '95...

[irvinbean]

this was one of my favorite song when this album gfirst came out and I still do presently love just as much right noe as well. God bless you Ms. Oleta. irvinbean

[micljnes]

Rich silky vocals, and a great backing track with background vocals with a banging bass, recipe for success.

Don't the words just say it all.... The Rythym of life goes on, OMG mesmeric.

[sheba031]

washington dc summer '95'!

[dr3vgn2]

Anything she sings sounds so good a great talent.

[stargirldazzle88]

I LOVE OLETA ADAMS! Now that was incredible both song and video! Keep it up!

[shantelh]

luv this one of many hope is another my fav out of all is get here

[1ezbuy]

...A real artist making real art! ...and in her own special way she is unsurpassed! ...Oleta is God Given, to man!

[freshmusic1]

I think Oleta is one of the best singers in the business. Her voice is pure and she is always in control of it. She is also a fine pianist. Better than just about anything out here now. She is atleast in the top 10 all-time as far as talent goes. A cross between Anita baker and Gladys Knight.

[GriotLori]

I would add Sarah vaughan. ;-)

[musicfromthedeep1]

very elegant.

[classy1973]

Oleta Adams song speaks to the heart---Rhythm of Life......yea......go .....head girl sing that song......all  pppraise to Our Almight GOD!!!

[99830459]

...makes me cry, too!!!!!!

[Doobie1975]

Great song, I hear this song on the Satellite Feed at my job and I sometimes wonder why this song wasn't released as a major hit in America?

[cjonyx]

isn't there a version of this vid with Roland actually singing along with her?.....i do remember that there was part when he was in it.

[victornewman06]

Spring '90 classic!!!!!

[timothy394]

nice

[nightflight83]

1990 was bad year for me, but this song was one of a few touches of grace that got me through.

[daveandcliff]

for the record, Roland and Curt didn't find her, artist on her own and they were fortunate enough to have her do vocals on their recordings!!!!!!

[daveandcliff]

Oleta is smooth as silk and a genuine person!

[ivedigga]

This song got me through the Military and its one of my favorites. Oleta Adams your voice is Smooth as Silk. You are one of the best thanks for the memories. Tears for Fears Roland and Curt discovered her for all those of U who didn't know.

[Machelle3200]

That's right baby..i'm a dragon, my son's a dragon, my daughter isn't, but she may as well be cause they will have a better luck than me...

[andrejacksun]

this shit make me cry ,,,,obama save us lol lol lol ,,,,,,,,;;we r hancock'' 2012

[ride80]

What a powerful song! I remember this song coming out in 1990 and I could not stand it at all.

Until, something in your life hits you that suddenly this song makes so much sense because you can relate to the lyrics.

You can clearly see the lyrics have Orzabal written all over them.

[webwezal]

Roland is such a great songwriter, he is also a deep person too. this song is nice

[MszRTJacobs]

Climbin' every mountain, always killing time Count the cost as days go by

Monday I've got Friday on my mind

Why don't we make love Instead of making plans. Mother Nature, Father Time Maybe it's the family of man Angels cry when they hear that tune It's sleepless nights for the man in the moon. and its the rhythm of life my minds made up the rhythm of life is the force of habit-hey hey the rhythm of life

[MszRTJacobs]

Give the girl a future

Give her what she needs

Teach her life's a Iong flat road

Maybe she'll have better luck than me

Works so hard like he's still in school

His pockets are jammed, but this man's a fool. Within the rhythm of life

My mind's made up Lucy's sign is a Chinese dragon

[pepperpod1]

Luv this Song thanx 4 the post! :)

[meepala]

crappy audio and it's not even a rip

[chippyminto]

Oleta your voice is fantasic,one of my favourite songs of the 90's.Thank Roland and Curt for finding you

[hapsheput]

Absolutely adore this tune

[68shamoa]

GREAT!!!!!!BACK IN THE PAST

[meikosma]

A theme song for everyday people in everyday live.

[chitownragdoll]

This song brings about some very fond memories and some sad ones as well, but over all the song is beautiful and has so much meaning. I play it all the time.

[hankaaron1961]

This album was my favorite of 1990.  And probably my favorite of the '90's.

[LadyVenom75]

Beautiful voice

[resater2050]

my favorite artist ever.love OLETA ADAMS.

[shuttlemasterbkg]

My favorite Oleta song; nice rhythm...

[purpleaudkoala]

yep

[purpleaudkoala]

yes irs roland

[burbonboy]

Is that Roland Orzabal singing backround vocals?

[webwezal]

yes, tht is Roland Orzabal on backgroud vocals and he produced her 1st album. till this day, TFF that is curt & roland still work/sing with eachother now and then. i think that is great. during one of their concerts she did songs & i think 1 of them was called "my song" i love how TFF presented her with such grace. love love al three of them. if u have not heard some TFF songs with her man, u shold. just pure magic. TFF said tht some of their music changed 4 the better after they met her.

[webwezal]

oops!!

sorry might have mispoke bout roland being on background vocals. TFF and oleta has been know for singing and or working on eachother songs from time to time.

[davalos8000]

No worries on misspeaking.. this song is also written by Roland Orzabal... and Nicky Holland, another TFF alum... Its gorgeous.. wish it would go on for like 20 minutes.. Actually.. does anyone know if there was ever a 12" single of this song with a longer remix???

[KolbjornM]

There are several 12" versions of this song, this version witch is called "Roland Orzibal Remix" is the single edit version. There's aso an "Reverend Jefferson's Deeper Rhythm Mix" and an "Reverend Jefferson's Choo Choo Dub" version. The two later remixes are sort of early 90's house remixes (in other words; really really bad)

As far as I can remember there wasn't much more 2 the Extended Remix than some hi-hats in the beginning, the opening instumental theme played twice, and soforth...

[PhuckHue2]
