  • Can ANYONE think of a more beautiful love song? Van Morrison sings so effortlessly and beautifully. Tears a piece out of your soul and bathes you in sweet emotion, a truly gifted artist. Too touching and sweet for words... just listen and cry...

  • someone like laura ann

  • This is "exactly" the type of song I'd like to have on while entertaining a certain lovely and talented lady in a dreamy penthouse flat situated high on a bluff overlooking the eerie and mighty North Sea of Scotland.

    With rain pouring from a grey autumn sky, we'd snuggle together in a plush leather couch next to a window eating cream cakes and imbibing splendid wine in candle-lit darkness, and in the midsts of endless sheets of rain and howling wind, we'd laugh and relish unspoken mysteries....

  • @guyNbluejeans man of my dreams...

  • @nhenson1984 Lol. Thanks!;-)

  • One of the great songs of all time sung by the master of lyrics! No one will ever come close the mastery and majesty that IS Van Morrison!

  • This song is in Bridget Jones :')

  • I am 19 years old and today is the first day I have ever listen to Van Morrison, i am ashamed of this, a musical genius and now a life long fan

  • how much attention and passion in just four minutes!

  • Beautiful...

  • I like his song thumb up

  • I dedicated this song to the love of my life, or at least that's what I thought, and as soon as I posted on his wall... He took it off. That's how I found that he wasn't into me. I love this song its such a beautiful melody BUT it brings bad memories now :(

  • this song is at the end of almost every single romantic comedy in the early 2000s :)

  • man i love van morrison, he has a voice that melts hearts. what an amazing guy. has anyone heard this sung by cara dillon? irish folk singer, she sings it beautifully. obviously not as good as van the man but pretty good. this is so going to be my first dance song when i get married.

  • @2783sarah i couldnt have said it better :) marry me and ill ask van the man to sing it for us,its worth a try :)

  • Van is the Man... Great artist and song writer..... great song.. 

  • Beautiful. Thanks!;-)

  • thank God for Van M

  • Лепа песма нема шта да се дода...

  • @lidijadrazic78 neizreciva :)

  • Simply beautiful..... Nothing fancy, says it all. Someone like you xx

  • Beautiful........i love this song

  • Was trying to find the meaning of life and..... the same shit day after day! Finally I found someone like you!

  • I played this for my wife celebrate her doctor's declaration that was clear of breast cancer. Took her to dinner and had them bring out balloons and a cake that said, "The best is yet to come."

    That was 15 years ago. She's still here. And the best is still yet to come.

  • I was just watching Bridget Jone's Diary had to come and listen to this song. Beautiful!!!

  • @MegaLflynn I did exactly the same thing JUST NOW. Had to come hear the song! It's wonderful!

  • He is the best of the best around

  • Hey, just enjoy..........Van Morrison brings the best of us together

  • beautiful song .

  • Thank you for posting this....

  • Dont even think of comparing Adele.s song to Van.s. She is not in his league and won.t ever be. Will be she here in forty years time DONT think so. End of

  • i played this song right before i asked her to marry me and we have been happy together for almost 20 years and every day is better than the dy before

  • great song,also love when the leaves come falling down and high summer.

  • Yes, many are turning into moralising little vigilantes - sickening isn't it

  • Smiles at the end of the day. Sooo glad Van is here.

  • What a fine musician..... One of the greatest...

  • how can ppls be so stupid- money? lol I give no shitabout money- I want thr REAL tunes---Van-going

  • Van Morrison - Please call your old one and only little girl - madam George 604 756 3271 or end of Jan. at 604 763 6713

  • "When I grow up, i want to find Someone Exactly Like You Van(George)!" ...yours truly, your original blue eyed brown eyed girl, madam george/boffyflow(still here in the lost & found)

  • rich people have terrible taste in music

  • Sorry 3TNT3.... I think you will be blocked, because your comments are absolutely unnecessary

  • Who gives a shit. Just listen to the music

  • Van Morrrison --- I know You are trying to find me again, but i don't know how to get through to You, so I'm hoping somehow through this site, someone who can reach you will pass on this message that Your long lost little child girl now middle-aged woman madam George is trying to reconnect, and i am in poor health, and sure wish and pray He finds me again soon! 100% truth ...im Van's missing child madam george (my nickname when i was 3, about 50+ years ago.

  • Love this!!!

  • @3TNT3 yes, I posted the Van Morrison song accompanied by his pictures, and because I'm not selling anything it can't be the commercial. And certainly it is not because the money is not involved. Btw, I'm sure Van's legal team regularly check youtube posts, and I don't think they need a little helper.

  • @thaichi2010 I wish you spoke English well enough to make more sense. You say "IT can't be the commercial." WHAT is this 'IT' you are referring to? And then you say, "And certainly it is not because the money is not involved." Huh?!? You use 'not' twice, which doesn't make ANY sense, and again you say 'it' without any clear indication of what this 'it' is that you are referring to. What grade were you in when you dropped out of school? Fourth?

  • @3TNT3 If you're so mad about having to watch an add before a youtube video of a Van Morrison song (which didn't come up for me btw) why don't you just buy his music?

  • @TheJediNinja Ever hear of something called principle??? If the $ for playing those ads went to Van, I would accept it without ANY complaint, whatsoever. BUT, when it is some regular ol' douche bag who is posting a video that is merely pictures, accompanying the studio cut, a& THEY are the one profiting from it, I have a big problem. I may have been a lot more understanding if they had AT LEAST provided a rare live cut, that was an exceptionally good 1, at that. But no, instead it's just this.

  • @3TNT3 How do you know it doesn't? The music in the video has been identified and claimed as Van's, hence the little link in the description where you can buy the song. Ads can be put on videos without users control you know.

    And it must just be your country, because I still am ad free. :)

  • @TheJediNinja P.S. I already have the album. I have all of Van's albums. And, the advertisement came up, yet again, when I visited the page just to reply to your comment.

  • @3TNT3 for ads you should contact youtube, in my version this video is absolutely ads-free.... and have you ever heard that English is not mother tongue or first language? However, thanks for FREE lesson!!

  • @3TNT3 You see the information below the view count? That's the artist's name and song title, indicating that the record label Morrison is signed to have placed ads on it, the uploaded, you pretentious tool. The uploader's not making a DIME off of this, the record label connected to Morrison is.

  • Forgot, simply forgot, how great this song really is. Thank you for Posting>

    ...and THANK YOU Exile Music for allowing it to be posted.

  • eSSA MÚSICA É BELÍSSIMA... VAN MORRISON É UM CANTOR EXTREMAMENTE SENSUAL... A VOZ DELE NOS EMBALA PARA MUITAS EMOÇÕES.

  • this was our first dance at our wedding and it still gives me butterflies 5 yrs later x

  • Nobody can sing it better than him, every single time I listen to this song it is as if I am hearing it for the first time. It is a classic..........

  • musica de gran clase.....mgm

  • MMMMMmmmm

  • Mark walberg.... In.... His new movie...

  • I don't know how ANYONE could honestly dislike this song. It's just pure beauty. People are either playing a joke or have no soul. How sad for them. :(

  • This is such a beautiful song. This is for my gorgeous boyfriend xxx

  • im confused..why do everyone refers this song as Adele?? i love her but i mean..why they only call thief justin bieber for somebody to love..its practically the same

  • @JennifeGarle because most folks are going solely on the fact that both van morrison's and adele's songs have the same title; adele's song speaks of the love she feels for an ex who's since moved on and married whereas van's version speaks of finding the love of his life. both songs are outstanding in their own right.

  • play this song every sunday morning - reminds me of all the loves i've lost i'm 62 now so may be the best is yet come . great song makes one reflect but ultimately optomistic. - ThanxVan

  • I've been searching a long time for someone exactly like you.......

  • this is going to be my wedding song

  • Van wrote this. It's from his wonderful album Poetic Champions Compose, and he is clearly a Poetic Champion.

  • thing is.. there's nobody exactly like him.. just him. I want just him. He knows who he is.

  • @txscooterchick1

    Agree 

  • still searching

  • Adele's cover is better

  • @Marawanasmok not the same song

  • @Marawanasmok that wont work i thought you were serious at first:P

  • @Marawanasmok  You are kidding ,right ? Google him .

  • MsKitton

    Your fiance has great taste and a good heart and soul

  • im 15 and must say, the shit they play on the radio isnt music, this is music.

  • @rachl8400

    you're lucky you discovered him at such a young age...i thought I was musically challenged because the music that I was normally exposed to never satisfied me and hence never stuck...until I was introduced to Van Morrison :)

  • @rachl8400 good man ureself

  • @rachl8400 You should be the voice of your generation.

  • this song is older than HER...lol

  • This song is older than Adele's, and I like this one a lot more

  • @bum291, Adele's "someone like you" is a totally different song, the only thing they share is the title.

  • @stuartw12345612 I knew that.

  • Beautiful if somebody gives you such honest words !  Happy!

  • Someone like U Van Morrison,exactly like you :-) LOVIN IT UP

  • love THIS song

  • This man is Pure Irish CLASS !!!!

  • that is "young bride"

  • THIS SONG WAS FEATURED IN THE MOVIE "PRELUDE TO A KISS". Alec Baldwin married Meg Ryan. At the wedding reception, an old man "kissed" the bride and stole her soul. Alec Baldwin went on his honey moon with an old man instead of his yound bridge. This song played because he was looking for ....."someone like - her". The Adele song should be re-named "someone like you-2"

  • Romantic..I love this song.

  • mickeymousebiker I will pray from this day forth that your wish comes true! Your own prayer is so heartfelt and poignant!

  • @panayiotis33 A million thanks! Sorry it too so long for me to reply. Each night, I try to pray that My Barbra returns for me, and to take me back to Heaven with her. Barbra is my Alpha and Omega True Love. Heaven brought us together as soul-mates/life partners. I KNOW this is true. I've had others try to "fix me up" with other gals, but, I KNOW they will never love me like My Barbra did (and still does). I want to spend Eternity in Heaven with My Barbra Rose. Please, pray!

  • Yep!! 2 entirely different songs!! Love them both, but they are NOT the same!!

  • This is Van's greatest works

    

  • Comment removed

  • MY FIANCE HAS CHOSE THIS FOR OUR 1ST DANCE AT OUR WEDDIN , ITS A BEAUTIFULL TUNE AND SO TRUE FOR US X

  • @MsKitton, you are blessed, this is special song. all the best

  • this song has the coolest bass line....love it!

  • i m in awe...i have no words...so beautiful it hurts...London in the 60s/70s...miss it.

  • Grat artist one of the best............in the same league as Leonard Cohen only Van plays small venues.

  • "Van the Man" it can't be done better!

  • I want this played for me when I am very, very old and feeling blue.  It always makes me happy!

  • fugetabawdit

  • best version

  • What a song - what a singer

    I'm in heaven

  • @sophieugalde ~ Have faith, there's someone out there for all of us ,,,, sometimes we just have to be a little more patient than we would like to be... I'm still waiting too :o)

    Fabulous song x

  • @LezleeZedlee yeah...be patient...but you know there so many siuations in which you just need a hug so you can't wait so long for that perfect person so you decide to be with the first you think is the right one

  • Every time I heard this, I remember that wonderful love that I will never met...

  • @sophieugalde Awwwww! I hope you meet someone you love

  • I've been working on Adele and Van Morrison songs. Love em both.

  • This is so beautiful, thanks for this Mr. Morrison.

  • Okay so i dont really understand... People are referring this to Adele's someone like you when they are actually absolutely nothing alike! Dont get me wrong adele has an amazing voice but these songs only have the same name... Stop comparing them...

  • @XxzombieslovemexX  i agree with you!!

  • @XxzombieslovemexX Amen !

  • Thank you, Van Morrison and thaichi2010! This song is in very loving memory of My Darling, True, and Eternal Love, Barbra. I love you beyond Space/Time, My Resplendent Wife -- My Heavenly Rose -- My Western Star -- Barbra! I miss you beyond words! Today (Nov. 22, 2011) marks one year since you left me for Heaven. I pray you can watch over me and hear this music when ever I play it for us. When my life is over, I pray and hope it is you, and no mere angel, who comes for me to take me to Heaven!

  • @mickeymousebiker1 -- This post warmed my heart...<3 sending you love and healing your way.. i know for sure that it will be her hand outstretched to take you home.. her arms.. <3

  • @StarlightCharisma Starlight -- MANY thanks for your heartwarming thoughts and words. I need that. I also pray and hope that My Barbra is the one who takes me to Heaven when my life is over. I miss Barbra more each day. I miss Barbra more than words can convey. Van Morrison was a favorite of Barbra's (and mine). My Barbra liked Van Morrison's Tupelo Honey. My Barbra is definitely sweeter than Tupelo Honey! My Barbra is My Eternal Rose -- My Western Star -- The Lighthouse of My Soul.

  • @mickeymousebiker1 sir that was beautiful beyond words....brought tears to my eyes. may you and your beloved be reunited in Glory when your time draws near and may God grant you His strength to endure.

  • @darchylde612 My Barbra Rose was an answer to a prayer which I uttered back in 1966. Sometimes, God answers our prayers expediently. Sometimes, it takes nearly a life-time for God to answer us. I had to wait a lifetime to meet My Barbra Rose. Barbra and I had only two years together before she died in Nov. 2010. I pray and hope I don't have to wait long to be with Barbra in Heaven. All of Heaven's Love, Glory, and Hope to you and to yours in 2012 and beyond.

  • @mickeymousebiker1

    she will be there to take you home....

  • @rumours11 A million thanks for your words of Hope and Encouragement! I need them! Heaven's Love and Hope to you in 2012 (and always)!

  • It took me thirty years to find you, Barbra. We had only two years together until cancer stole you away from me. Someday, there will be some kind of cosmic justice -- you and I will be together again (forever). The Christ has already seen to that. You are sweeter than Tupelo Honey (one of our favorite songs by Van Morrison). My Darling and Eternal Love Barbra, if there is honey in Heaven, you are definitely sweeter! Barbra Jean "Rose" Ragan (June 23, 1967 -- Nov. 21/22, 2010). I LOVE YOU BARB!

  • lots of people sing this song but this guy does it the best.

  • My all time faovrite artist! Nobody will ever come close.

  • my wedding song :)love this 

  • i can't describe this.....I listen to his music every night in bed, and everytime He takes me to another world. For me this is what music is all about. It is the best of the best.

  • Vann LIked him in the 70s. love him in the 2011s timeless.........gpro

  • I Like Rock But this man is Grate

  • GOOD SONG BUT A NEG FOR THE AD

  • I thought adele re-released this as her own but it isnt like her version at all i don't get it do they just have the same name or what :L

  • @terrieg333 Yes. Same name, different songs.

  • hey papeetetp, try real hard to Grow Up, Ya van is the man & he would slap U upside the head for slamming Adele, U have no other words to convey your thoughts then shut up

  • i'm crying in my E&J VS right now... and i never cry.....

  • Brilliant !!!!

  • ขอเสียงคนไทยหน่อยคร้า  อิอิอิ

  • Van Morrison Is the absolute BEST!!!!! Great songs!!!!! Great Man!!!!

  • Fell back in love with this song and the ending of "Bridget Jones's Diary". It doesn't get much more romantic than this song, and Renee Zellweger (Bridget) standing on her toes to kiss Colin Firth (Mark) in the snow.

  • This is my first dance at my wedding on 21st July 2012 :) Just wish I had Van to sing it for me, what a voice

  • i cant find someone exactly like you ♥
