  • I love this song...... kahit na oldie... :))

  • They played this in "General Hospital" for those who used to watch. The words are touching. I saw "Arthur" yesterday and since Chris Cross is the one who sings the theme to that movie I had to look this one too.

  • This isn't the official video.

  • This song was popular when I was in high school, and I got embarrassed by the daily serenades. But it also reminds me of all the fun I had, too! Great song, thanks for posting!

  • awww...so pretty.i lost my first love many years ago...remember with a smile and know that all is good now.plenty of hugs for you where you are.

  • My name is Laura and I would love if people played this song at my funeral.

  • This song has a sad yet also wonderful meaning to me as I lost my beautiful Arleen to cancer some 33yrs ago she was 21 and I was 18 and I loved her very much.

  • If my name was Laura I would probably want this song played at my funeral.

  • @metrogirl626 I played this at my sisters funeral last year as her name was Laura and the song fitted her so well.

  • @victoriaannegrace I'm sorry for your loss. This is a beautiful song and I'm sure Laura would be very happy to know you played this song. I'm Laura too and would love if my friends/family played this song when I die.

  • sad, but beautiful- can't stop listening to it....

  • After seeing this video, I want a French girl now :-)

  • i really love this song..

  • I remember when this was a hit!! it still is to me!!

  • YES,THE BEST

    SINGER INDEED!!!

  • This video was just added to a music playlist at JustPlay.fm

  • Just a sensational balladeer...

  • i love this song...!

  • Cross did not write this for the show. Laura was the best friend of a lady he was dating at the time in the early '80s. She was killed by a stray bullet while driving in a car one night, and Cross wrote this for her. About a year after the song was released on Another Page, General Hospital requested permission to use the song on their show, and it became a hit.

  • He had the voice of an angel.

  • Great ballad, makes you think of past loved ones. Have to understand empathy though, so if you don't like, then your heartless.

  • You can put a sexy woman in her underwear in this video if you want but this is still one of the gayest song ever!!

  • 9,666 views! It's A SIGN!!!

  • Is the girl in the vid, actually named Laura? Billboard's #83 song of '84. Chris hit #1 AC, #9 pop, in Billboard. God bless!

  • He didn't make an official video for this? Foolish!

  • it was written for a soap opera......

  • @jgraz42 it was actually written for friend who lost a friend that was killed by a stray bullet. Her name was Laura.

  • @kurbster26 yes, it was Cristopher sister's best friend

  • @jgraz42 No, this was not written for that stupid Luke and Laura soap-It was written for his sister's best friend who was shot in the head walking down the stray by a stray bullit.

  • @cooltooth112 Cross did not write this for the show. Laura was the best friend of a lady he was dating at the time in the early '80s.

  • @chuckghutch I just said it wasn't written for the soap show. Only thing I had wrong was it was not his sister's friend but a friend of Cross's girlfriend. I remember the song on the radio before the soap used it.

  • The only person I think of when I hear this song is Laura Szendrei. She was only 15 and passed away from a brutal attack in a park in my town recently :( RIP Laura <3

  • Beautiful song, but lost my high school girlfriend "Laura" when this song came out. It hurt so much way back now, but now it is so good to look at the great memories we did share together.

  • A beautiful romantic song that I love. It brings back a lot of memories. Love the video. It is very sexy!

  • When you think of Laura, but,

    Laugh! Don't cry. I know she'd want it that way.

    A friend of a friend, a friend till the end.

    That's the kind of girl she was.....

    Taken away so young. Taken away, without a warning.

  • makes me wanna cry na... sana ako si Laura huhuhuhuh tas may Christopher Cross na kkanta nito sa kin... :P

  • Beautiful song and vid, great upload!:)

  • One of the best singers of all time, for me.Christopher Cross has a wonderful voice indeed.Thanks for posting CS, my idol!!!

  • @mayvel95

    That's true. He has that distinct voice. Thanks for watching. Anong oras na ba diyan at relax ka yata ngayon : )

  • ha I used to love this song and I did watch General Hospital during the Luke and Laura love story, for many yrs... wow memories of "after school" lol... thanks... Oh and btw, thanks to you but in a GOOD WAY< I still have LeBlanc & Carr's "Falling" STUCK on my brain the last two weeks, but hey I LOVE that song, an OLD FAV of mine for sure, but dammit I wanted the ringtone for my cell and can't find it: go figure, ugh :/
