Was cleaning my car and found my Simply Red Greatest Hits stuck in the chair. Its been 5-6 years since I have listened to it. Listened to it for a good 2 hours and this song over and over again. Emotions ran through me from happiness to tears. Thank god I found this CD and bringing back some amazing memories.
What a great remake of the 1973 Aretha Franklin classic! Simply Red's dance version of "Angel" also kicks it, kicks it - thank you for posting this video - DAVEDJ
I was a senior in high school when "Holding Back the Years" came out. Magnificent, timeless. Since then, so much good stuff...be sure to check out Never, Never Love, Your Mirror, and Home among others. Awesome and rare talent these days. When the latest flash-in-the-pans have faded from memory, such talent as Mick's will remain.
Mr. Mick hucknall's voice is absolutely outstanding!! His music puts a smile on my face, and cleanses my soul... I wish there were more artists out there with such an angelic, pure voice.. Simply Red..Simply Mick...Simply Brilliant!!!!
one of my all time RED favorites - "too long have I love unattached within... so long I have I known ..." his voice on that line gives me chills - who doesn't want to find that angel...lolz :D
BEAUTIFUL SONG. PAUL PRAYS , I PRAY THAT HE WILL USE HIS GLORIOUS RICHES TO MAKE YOU STRONG. MAY HIS HOLY SPIRIT GIVE YOU HIS POWER DEEP DOWN INSIDE YOU. THEN CHRIST WILL LIVE IN INSIDE YOU.
MAY YOU HAVE POWER WITH ALL GOD'S PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND CHRIST'S LOVE. MAY YOU KNOW HOW HIGH AND WIDE AND DEEP HIS LOVE TRULEY IS.
a contradiction in the words. i had an angel, the relationship was a prison, as many relationships become. now i'm free. maybe she was the devil in desguise?
i first ran into simply red when he first started right after the movie "the committments" which i really recommend for those who want to understand the irish R&B music scene from which he comes.
He is one of the most naturally gifted singers ever - imo. When I first heard him, I totally thought he was black, as well. He has the Golden-Age-of-R&B sound like Aretha Franklin and Harold Melvin & Blue Note fame. It totally gets under my skin. And he's a red-head like me! Whoodathunkit? Gorgeous, gorgeous, GORGEOUS! But I don't think this is one of his best songs.
found the angel..... Just trying to figure out how to get him.... :)
