Princess - "After The Love Has Gone" (1985)

[sscarzz]

I really like this song..... She's pretty too!

[coverdale20]

I always thought all she had was "Say I'm your Number One". I'm surprised that this didn't do better, but I can imagine that some people mixed this up with the SOS Band. Mary Davis from that group has a similarly powerful sound. Take a listen to "Just the Way You Like It" and you will see what I mean.

[garyboylec]

Funny thing is 80s singers would never of won X-factor as the show has no idea what talent is. What a shame we are losing talanted singers and Bands becuase of Slimon Fuckwit Cowal. YOU killed pop music for your own gain!!

[ALECOELHA]

I love this music!!! :)

[howardtheman]

Wow she's a forgotten one hit wonder but she had a few hits.

[cioupty]

great singer and voice! WHY DO we have to endure all this X factor rubbish?? None of them could hold a candle to this singer!

[neihouleng]

見つけた！・・・浪人してたなぁ、この頃。今はお母ちゃんだい。­

[stev2083]

tunnneee!

[CapricornMartinez]

An underrated PWL talent.

[TheNouveauxdecadence]

@CapricornMartinez

Absolutely!>.. Kylie who??? Princess was THE best artist PWL EVER had!!! SHe brings tears to my eyes when she sings +

[darkaz69]

SHIDDD YALL NEVA HEARD WE GOT MARRIED, 1 YEAR LATER 10 KIDS 5 PRINCESS & 5 PRINCES, AH HA.............. LMAO

[AfroBlaxion]

Damn, I used to love this...me and my girlfriends would attempt to sing it in harmony. W'happen to Princess?

[MrBenelx]

fulling sandbags on the DMZ in the ROK with AFKN!!!!!!!

[mike2004blow]

Awesome ! Good Tune ! Good Groud Beat !

At that time , i listened this from MT(cassete tape) !

Include that tape , SOS band "the finest" , nu shooz "i can't wait" ... and so on...

i like that tape , i like this , now too !

[Fidius1967]

everything that the 80's dance scene was about ........great tune :P

[kirby9604]

awesome....top tune!!!!

[warminator]

Bitter sweet teenage broken love memories.

Kids remember: 2:25 "life must go on..."

[LoleattaGirl]

Oh I just said that very same thing.. haaha I <3 the 80s!

[Gluchyon]

"After the love has gone" is untouchable, Princess you delivered a astounding musical archive. Your beautiful as the song!

[nabillaoulach]

love this song. oh the memoriessss

[nabillaoulach]

love this song. oh the memoriessss

[marcianno3]

[marcianno3]

this is the voice at that time woooooooooooooooooooooooow iam 41 and il like still and love this song remeber at my first love this song is for marsha at that time in 85 ,,,,,,,,,,

[MrTurchese]

This song is better than SAY I'M YOUR NUMBER ONE

[TheMrdazdizzie]

i luv dis shit.brings bac memories that were awesome

[nazreyes]

I remember this song better than 90 percent of the biggest hit songs of the 80s. It's a true classic in my book ;-)

[SuperKippensoep]

Beautiful voice, beautiful lady, expressive face. Simple clip, script nothing to speak of, but even then she manages to keep my focus on her the whole clip long.

[sampmanful]

This is serious old school with more than a touch of classic. I heard this song from a friend that was in Germany back in 1985. Back then, there was Jody Whatley, Vesta Williams and Chauka Kahn but this lady set it off with a charming voice and spectacular eys. I have been searching off and on for this song since 1988. what an amazing classic.

[jhdennis1]

I have looked for this song for about ten years. I remember hearing this on the radio as an elementary school student. Great track - I forgot how melancholy the lyrics were.

[ian4kylieandlego]

I like Princess she is stunning and has a nice voice, PWL churned out many beaty songs.

[phillysalsoul]

Ah...!! ~ Such a steady flow here! PWL soul:o)

[yorkie6687]

Her dickhead brother destroyed her career by demanding more and more

money in advance from Pete Waterman, fucking greedy bastard, she could have been so big!!!

[alexanderj1987]

i will always love princess. she is quality.

[shili12000]

Princess ain't a looker

[nkwari]

@shili12000  Do you look better?? I think she is cute.

[jimboedwardlee]

Princess sounds a lot like the lead singer of the SOS band on this cut. Another great act of the 1980's

[blowfelt1000]

love this song, I was on the way to KOREA when this broke!!!!!!!

[Ultrazable]

Desiree Heslop, last single in 2010

[Cover80s]

black girls were so lovely at that time, now many of them take this stupid street attitude (at least here in Europe) and have lost their charm. If I could find one like the Princess in this video, I would marry her at once... anyone there? ;)))

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

@Cover80s Well said you hit the nail on the head there. Now the so called singers of today are so fake its all one big horrible act . If you aint a gangster or gay now a days you aint got much hope of selling your music. Back in the 80's the music was the key, life was so much more relaxed, people were happier and women had sexy figures and were not a size zero stick like they are now.. A great video of a lovely talented woman. I miss the 80's so so much.

[nkwari]

@Cover80s - don't stereotype an entire group of people

[Cover80s]

Aaaahhh the Old good time...

[yorkie6687]

Such a shame her dickhead brother fucked up

her career, according to Pete Waterman!

[lordoid]

Damn...she looks great!

[Pfunk758]

This is my jam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bernard7667]

mars-avril 1986

[Dadoo1123]

When it came to music, the 80s were so AMAZING. So many hits.

[TheKevalos]

Why don't the artist's now make song's like this anymore?

[darlaa91]

O' Boy what memories!!!

[dickhedad66]

i just love this video

[miller4th502nd]

love it, reminds me my first girlfriend. :)

but damned, there is no way to buy it today as a mp3. :( no mp3 issue at amazon, only 2ndhand 7"singles

[Bluenile38]

@miller4th502nd

You can buy the CD album quite cheaply from Amazon.

[miller4th502nd]

@Bluenile38 not in the german amazon! There only 2ndhand 7" vinyl issues. :( But I have it now, a friend gave me the entire album. ^^

[dokterandi]

i lalways love this song.. looks like i am back to the eighties when i went to high school and after school we listen to the music together in my house. welcome back to eighties, friends....

[mfuji02]

@dokterandi cruzing around in my iroc-z with my girl god where is she now...

[starshiptrouper]

I miss the 80's so much too, hoping to go back there one day!

[elenam75]

this was her second hit in the 80s. what a great song! love it!!! :-)

[INSIDERUK]

shag her and make up you dolts!!!!!!!!!!

[makoroww]

I love it!

[keefybaby2007]

DAAAAAAMN! i love this tuuuuune!

[GradyBaby13]

Hey, wait a minute, that cars steering wheel on the wrong side man!

[nazreyes]

I just realized that this song sounds like "Just Be Good To Me" by the S.O.S. Band Oh well, I love BOTH songs!!!

[JEIWILBER]

A perfect win from the 80s ! ! !

[mike210476]

After the love has gone! Scholuld have been "Say i am your number one!

It is a number one piece of music :-)

[angien1971]

Love it!

[fitzslipper]

OMG! Another favourite song by Princess! Gosh, I feel like I'm 13 again! I am so thankful that I got to grow up in England back in the 80s. The pop and R&B music of that time was fantastic; British and American. Reggae was good too, loved UB40 too! Bring back the 80s music and replace it with the codswollop we have to listen to today!!

[iluvmikidz]

Love the big ear rings. Brings bak memories. The 80's rocked. cheers from NZ :)

[donhyman]

@iluvmikidz NZ was big for Princess #1 I believe. Watch out for the new music follow her on her label's twitter page ODG_Music..Mew Music on the waaaay!!!!

[jkingi161168]

I remember this song and Princess. Didn't realize how pretty she was. What a voice.

[happik]

Wow this is old!! Or is it me that's getting old?!?! How is miss the 80's!

[srs68]

SONHUN76

YOU ARE BANG ON THERE AINT NO MUSIC LIKE IT & NEVER WILL BE.

Big up the 80's

[foriamonlyahorse2]

@srs68 thank Christ! lol

[markglover88]

im a metalhead but i loved this song!!! yeah the 80s were the bollocks

[babylicious72]

Bring back the 80's

[lonelysymphony]

Preferred this to "Say I'm Your Number One" but the video post production is terrible.

[alphahanen]

its bad, but i love it, fuck im getting old

[disway71]

Love the song, but the video is...so lame 80's :D I think she is British, maybe that's why the song didn't do well in the US?

[dot4design]

I love the music so much from princess, so awesome.....MORE fantastic ´80´s music on my channel!!!!

[angyclio]

Che pezzo GRANDE STILE di musica anni 80...

[mauriciotmr]

Amazing 80's...

[Biscom]

Great song.

[piankhy123]

Thanks for placing this onto Youtube

[musesong]

been a longtime, but still sounds great, thanks for posting this!

[oceanbelow]

women had thicker eye brows in the 80's. Anyone else notice?

[vyrgo84]

@oceanbelow lol i did notice! lol my mom wore thick eyebrows until 1989 lol!

the 80'S RULE!!!!!

[norazhar67]

Yup the best ever times for good quality music will always be the 80s... and Princess you rock!!

[kpitt1204]

I used to wear the grooves out on this 45. It sounds very 80s, but I still love it so much.

[Hibbos]

Great lyrics, vocal, music, takes me back to the 80's, best time ever.Please post more of her songs.

[kac1962]

A great song from a great period of music.

[biskutkering]

LOLOL my disco days

[siliconehuni]

this song is just amazing,,, beautiful and a good reminder of the amazing sound of that time,, i love this song ,, one of my alltime favs x

[RealKampongBoy11]

This is a beautiful song, sang with a beautiful voice, by a very beautiful lady.

Wonder where she is right now.

luv Princess

[trvwatson]

Black female singers in the 80's always used better makeup than they do now, purple lipstick and red eyeshadow always looked dynamic and different, unlike what we see today with boring shades.

[greenisland75]

This is a most excellent song. It didn't do that well in the charts suprisingly. Princess has a great voice.

[ninaian]

@greenisland75 Yep, it'a a great track but only managed to reach no. 28 in the UK chart at the end of December 1985!! :-(

[dicksr4chicksss]

haha king song holy shit I remember this cut

[kronjhe]

The best track ever,i love princess

[best1forward]

there was a faster version that was great too.

[Soulbeat1]

I will go back into the 80's

[shanesdb1]

love this track,a beautiful song.....

shanex

[imaghost67]

Toute la marque d'une époque. génial !!!

[freedomstate79]

this song is kickass,the instrumentation is awesome.

[sonhun76]

i miss the 80s so much, u neva hear songs like this no more. awesome track, luv princess

[NIKIMBO]

@sonhun76 RETRO

[louluvscats]

Memories of late 1985 Ahhh,when this song was out.Such a quality Artist and track! Also such powerful Lyric's.Really Loved Princess and her song's.Unfortunately,the last i heard from her, was back in1987 with her hit song Red Hot. Shame! Nice post though!! Benja :-)

[AlexSunDar]

Amazing....Listen Bad Remix you will be more astonished how good is this song.

[gelkell]

the cod and the ROSE were great pubs back in the 80s i was from camberwell then...good old days

[DJAJREMIXX]

Her best track

[Glitterbladejester]

Fab makeup!

[Rionasweet]

she has a great voice ..very beautiful woman..

[nekabah09]

Right on brother, hear you loud and clear........

[1NativeNewyorker]

Ok... Onecharmingbastard, you've done it again ! This is ur 2nd post of a song and artist that I was crazy about back in the day! Cut it out. : )  Thanks for the post!

[lillabethsmum]

I used to love those purple hair extensions! Great track!

[yenrodtheoriginal]

Beautifull voice !

[johnnygorgeous]

got to number 1 on my chart !

[vlaovik]

Love this song! I thought her first LP (CD) was amazing. i didn't pick up the second (and last) - Red Hot, but the title track was excellent - a lot like 'Just a Teaze' from her first - very rock oriented. Underrated but definitely not forgotten! And early PWL!

[N145PM]

my god, she's amazing. i love this song

[wonderdaylove]

Fuck I love this song!!!!

[2nd2nun1]

Omggggg. I have been trying to find this for AGES after hearing this on L.A. radio (old Magic 106 FM) back in the day in high school. Thanks for posting this!!

[skorpiana68]

La mejor canción para bailar americano de esa época =)

[edinburghmarc]

I have read all the comments and I totally agree with most of them. When you think of then and what we live in now it is a totally different world. In the 80's we had trust, no racism, no tube bombings and no 9/11. These things would never have been heard of. Its sad when we have to reminisce but happy though! The 80's was an era we will never re-capture. Cheers for posting this song. x

[dext68]

To re-literate what beyond and 3Dhave said the 80`s was exceptional and how I miss it so much. No responsibilitys,No Stress, it was the best and shall always be.......How times have changed.

[beyondtheoceans]

3DPeter i totaly agree with you as a person who had chance to live in those years i should say evertyhing was more different love,friendship,family.People were living with their hearts but now they became more like robots all you hear is 'me me me me me' and everybody wants to be star and have fans all around,people want to take not give...

[3DPeter]

@ falcon0351

The clip might be junk, but it gives a good impression about how the 80's looked like. And man, i wish i had a time machine, because then i would go back to those great 80's were life was much more beautyfull and way more simple

as these horrible present days we live in.

and when i could go back, i woud destroy the timemachine, because i would not come back, not even for a million bucks.

[falcon0351]

Video clip is junk,but beautiful Princess sings like no other...classic...love it!

[TheMonolith75]

I miss her...She was so great!! Beautiful music and woman!! Does anyone know what happen to her?? Her music brings back alot of memories of my childhood...

[skankibounca]

Im a brother... My wife is white but daaam id bang this sister senseless... Shes a Hottie!!!

[TheMonolith75]

LOL!!

[skankibounca]

WTF??? The gay dude has a Friar Tuck hairdo??? Sooooo NOT!

Thought they wouldve got a more manly-er dude like Bill Murray or Rob Schneider? Even Steve Erkel wouldve played a better part in this vid than the cheesy gay as Friar Tuck brother!

[lillabethsmum]

He looks like Danny John Jules but I didn't know he had a comb over!

[WesseltonPure]

Great song but oh boy - that guy in the clip - how he moves and acts - what a pussy... pathetic.

[MsMelzy]

Yeah he is kinda weak...she's driving...he's walking....sad

[WesseltonPure]

Indeed. But today's society is too much loaded with weak, soft men. Too much so called adult men act tough but are in fact little kids that can't protect their beloved ones. It's remarkable and striking to conclude that.

[daddyMACist]

bloody fantastic has anyone got her album pleaseeeee

[mrssleaze]

The Princess album is finally available to buy on i-Tunes worldwide

[MsMelzy]

This brings back high school memories, of high school sweetheart, the clothes i'd wear...the way the air felt and smelt during that time....Just Great!

[DaintyDeema]

You're so right, I can even remember my emotions back then! Oh the days back then!

[jared1971]

Early Stock Aitken Waterman production. Very well put together, well produced. No wonder they did so well.

[limbo10000]

Sure, this is a waterman production??? Sounds more like produced by L.A. Reid & Babyface ....

[GR8WHITEC5]

Awesome song...hey, was that Arsenio Halls first appearance? Hahahaha

[PRETTYtsKELLY]

i just had a recent breakup and this made me cry .."i must be strong when ther's nothing anyone can do ..im still in love with you"

[mfuji02]

@PRETTYtsKELLY life must go on... after the love has gone...

[PRETTYtsKELLY]

@mfuji02 its sure does and it has!

[lemonproject]

Princess cd available in shops now, just got my copy. Fantastic.

A must for all princess fans.

[mackobudapest]

perfect song & music !!! love it !!! I miss the 80's :(

[GradyBaby13]

She has a very amazing/strange resume of accomplishments:

-she was known as a very good impersonator of famous singers.

-she wanted to be a lawyer instead of a singer.

-one of her albums was produced by: Michael Jackson, Christina Aguilera and a few other famous artists.

irst time multiple artists produced together.

-she received some kind of an honor/award for doing work in Africa....

The more things I read about her, the more amazed I am about her

[NorgenNeelie]

I truly enjoyed her songs and I am glad I finally found them again!

[CatchingFeelings]

though she came with only a few, she came hard; she came correct!

go head babydoll!

[adka71]

I love the time and the music

[marmamuffle]

love this song from back in the day... The music arrangement and hooks in this are just class :)

[IVYISTHENAME]

sounds like s.o.s. band's just be good to me..love this song, tho!!

[URSINHOdePELUCHE]

Those Simmons drums looked and sounded so different from the rest ...

I wonder what has become of her, never heard anything from her since back then. She was quite cute :)

[GradyBaby13]

What is PWL?

[URSINHOdePELUCHE]

W stands for Waterman, one of the producers behind Princess and several other artists back then. PWL is or was his record company I guess.

[starstorm55522]

PWL is Pete Waterman Ltd.

[SeaBassTian]

"Forgotten PWL diva." You aren't kidding. The poor thing doesn't even have her own Wiki page. I have much love for this groove, which I wore out back in the day. Before SAW started to go wobbly.

[lynottfan4]

Awesome.

Thanks for posting.

[KingAzzD]

isn,t the boyfriend in this video the cat out of red dwarf..?

[artymekjd]

Yes! Danny John Jules I think his name is... good spotting!

[hardkicka]

he is and he was also in Blade 2 as one of the blood pack

[lemonproject]

I was so in love with this woman and her voice back in the day, cant find any music to buy from her nowadays.

Fantastic vocalist, hope shes doing ok nowadays.

[artistandy77]

one of my very favorite cassette tapes from 88. i always wondered what happened to this chick. youtube is amazing.

[padillagene]

I agree, but I dont no what I loved more about 1988 Princess or Pontiacs Fire Bird Formula..lol

[m44ngo]

after the love has gone!!! come see me!!!!

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

A timeless classic that sounds as good now as it did back in the day. Such happy feel good music which was about love and not drugs guns or violence like a lot of modern songs seem to be about today. Great video thanks for posting this.

[jewells051]

i bought the 12" version of this song xxx

[kongouhada]

懐かしくて泣きそう。。。

大好きな曲。長年探してるけどアルバムが手に入らない。

[stillhigh2008]

最近、再発されたみたいですよ。

[kongouhada]

ありがとう！さっそくポチってきました！感激！

[bellomarcello]

i hate all the commercial SAW productions, but the PRINCESS material is great!!!!

[david1956x]

my daughter was born when this came out - good times great song

[loviedovie222]

It's funny how time flies. Your daughter must now be about 25 or 26, just guessing.

[Hirsute63]

I'm still in love with her too...!!

[DiscoVinyl]

It's a bit S.O.S. Band inspired too. WICKED!

[jossbayduke]

great song, bit of an anthem to my old uni days. Bit of laura branigan, bit of dire straits and some princess that was good music.

[QANTAS330]

brilliant song and am i correct in saying her greatest hits is coming out soon??

always loved this song shame it never made number 1

[ThoughtCriminal911]

80s ruled
