Holly Johnson - The Power of Love - Later with Jools Holland - Part 2 of 2

[MattPopOfficial]

Pretty damn impressive version. And yes - this song is an undisputed classic.

[stzzla]

When todays mongs in the charts have stopped fucking around with samplers and making songs about clubs and how much their ho's booty shakes or how much they've got "it" going on, maybe, just maybe, when they've grown up enough and achieved musical maturity, they will make songs like this. Maybe. But probably not. Probably not because half of todays charters have already disapeared up their own arses never to see the real world again.

IVE GOT TO ADMIT IT I MISS PEOPLE LIKE HOLLY FROM THE CHARTS TODAY. THEY MADE THE 80S WHAT IT WAS. GREAT GREAT DAYS, ICE CREAM DAYS AND AS FOR THIS SONG CLASSIC.

[hot1550]

This song gives me goosebumps when I hear it, holly is amazin, and the song to me means christmas all over x

[mrlemmos]

Frankie and in particular that song are sooooo under appreciated. The pure art and theatrics are on par with Freddy Mercury I would argue. Pitty they couldn't get the traction and appreciation of their timeless music greatness. Who cares if their fags, their music and Art to me are modern day symphony Aline to Beethoven and Bach. The best of the best No doubt!!!!!

[TheFormby1970]

holly still rocks

[1walkgirl]

Gigantic! :-)

[MrBirchmoor33]

Totally and completely outstanding performance .Im still reeling.Ultimate thanks to PlanetFrankieHD for posting.Sorry,absolutely sensational

Rewind Holly Johnson 2011

[claire30061]

I saw him at rewind aug 2011 - in vip area he seemed a bit frail lbut more than happy to meet us plebs! but on stage he was strong and brill- he sang power of love as encore and told 40K audience this is THE song he wants to be remembered for!!Was he trying to tell us something? He is brill and talented!! am so happy I saw him live - it was fab!!!

[Deetroiter]

best live version i've seen of this song yet. Unreal performance...still has a great voice after all the years

[billstar01]

hi folks put in americanos 2010 and you will see holly with silver hair and still dancing

[paully1969]

too awe inspired to comment... this song with Jools on piano and Holly in his finest voice... breathtaking, simply breathtaking... Thanks for posting xxx

[TheBlewie]

Pure, unsullied and beautiful. I want it to be played at my wedding and my funeral.

[KeeganBrooks]

Fantastic , very talented lad, be great to see a homecoming show/reunion at the Echo Arena. FGTH were awesome back then! They should show today's kids what it's about.

[yutoki64]

I really love this song. It brings me back old memories of 84... I used to listen to this song on my way to work everyday. beautiful xx

[Gazza7]

Form is temporary, class is permanent.

Holly, you will always have that class, and that amazing voice. Thanks for the tunes over the years. Any chance of a few live shows please?

[kirlkirl]

Still as artful and as touching as it used to be.

[shopgirl511]

hi, thanks for sharing this beautiful video with us. a few days ago i heard a version of this song on the radio, holly was singing with a woman but they didn't say her name and i haven't found anything yet, so i was wondering if maybe you know who she is..i'd love to have that version, it was soooo beautiful. thanks again :)

[paully1969]

just beautiful ... thank you xxx

[jheathish]

Used to love Frankie in the 80s! lovely to see Holly Johnson here still looking good and still has a great voice...

[saybootopikachu]

wasnt this the 2004 show? ... what an untouchable song. I cant imagine anyone else attempting this classic

[ahannanismail]

Splendid. What an artist

[RichardPears]

What a beautiful performance. My favourite Frankie song; in fact, my favourite love song of all! 'I'm so in love with you' gets me every time. X

[mcgigglish]

Odd that he wrote it to 'conjure love into his life'. Such a romantic song.

I remember leaving work one day and walking out into a parking area. This song (FGTH version) was echoing beautifully round an area bigger than a football pitch. I stood still, spellbound listening to it. My heart briefly came alive

[thom2805]

as far as I know he' s HIV positiv....for many years, but he's healthy.....and he is a very good inger!

and I' m not gay! :-)

[HappiGermani]

Holly is still sexyyyyyy and his voice full of feeling! Look at his amazing eyes when he sings" I´m so in love with you". I´m flashed. Never before listened to anything that is so beautiful. I wish him all the best.

[FurryFenNick]

He is unbreakable!

[budgethemusicsponge]

One of the greatest songs of all time in my book. Never fails to connect and Holly's a fine singer. Have to say though that Blast solo album was total shite. How can you go from a track as good as this to "Love Train" and "Americanos"?

[Agrati1]

I saw this video sometime last year on YouTube before it was removed. Holly Johnson himself responded on the comments saying that he's very much alive and well! Great song and I like this calmer version better than the original. Thanks for uploading.

[ReplaceYourself]

Great job, Holly. Legendary song!

[kevrs2]

he sings this remarkably well in this video ,considering hes a lot older and his health problems usually when you see singers performing years later a lot of them sound awful ,but this is very good indeed always liked FGTHW:)

[nuttiestmo0]

one of THE BEST power ballads EVER...holly at his best!

[incubus60]

needs to be in HQ there was one on here but has been deleted, still the best verison

[dreamzcatchers]

absolutely beautiful. mesmerising

[chipsandegg]

Always a pleasureHolly.. Your A Work of Art

Andy x

[doh1959]

beautiful

[35sixer]

This was truly one of their best tunes..never got much airplay in the states. Glad HJ is back..

[ruddlgamble]

Is back?

[beowulven]

He's back!

[tommykopite]

This has got to be one of the most beautifully written songs that i have heard in my life time......Dreams are like angels

They keep bad at bay-bad at bay

Love is the light

Scaring darkness away.

[hopelesslypassive]

fantastic song..fantastic voice...fantastic performance I've seen him performe "the power of love" just a few days ago on some (kind of rubbish) christmas song chart show thing in germany..but his performance was just outstanding, made me remember why this is one of my fav. songs ever

[mitiu73]

Jeez. What a voice, after so many years...

[beowulven]

Chills...

[bombe0177]

endlich ma wieder nen lebens zeichen vom meister

[Rosinenkind]

Ja ein Glück.... :-D

[wlochacz1980]

what was exact date it aired?

[ruddlgamble]

Good question! Want to know this too!

[RPete100]

WOW. I am blown away by this performance. I feel short changed with Frankie goes to Hollywood. They should have made 10 more albums.

Bravo Mr. Johnson.

[gxd4b1]

I didnt realise the dude had AIDS. How hard core is that???

[PlanetFrankieHD]

He hasn't got AIDS. He's HIV positive and while I wouldn't recommend it to anyone it is now containable through combination therapy. He's healthy and looking great.

[KorteMr]

@gxd4b1 All of my respect his!!!

[senseigee]

Awesome Fucking brilliant ! Guy can sing no doubt ! Takes me right back, used to get woman on there knees lol !

[alorki1947]

Where is this version of "relax" as seen in the video? I saw it once and I can no longer find it. I made all of YouTube. Nothing! Thank you in advance.

[alorki1947]

Je rêve ou c'est vrai. Il me semble que c'est le journaliste Jools qui joue du piano. Voyez-vous la même chose ?

[moonstonematrix]

@alorki1947 Il n'est pas journaliste, il est musicien, et oui bien sur c'est lui qui joue du piano. Il est tres bien connu, il s'appelle Jools Holland.

[alorki1947]

@moonstonematrix Oui, effectivement, j'ai su qui il était. De plus, j'ai vu ses émissions TV. Merci quand même de votre réponse.

[billstar01]

just brilliant ,i saw this on the night and forgot about it till now thanks for the post + just read hes back with frankie how good is my night getting. take care all

[peterpetersnbg]

[ykmsp]

[ohmixmaster]

Does anyone know when this show aired?

Its nice to hear Holly after all these years....the guy can still sing. Now, is it just me or does this song sound as current now as it did in '84?

[PlanetFrankieHD]

Hi mate, it was 9 years ago now I think. He still looks the same though and I've just uploaded Frankie's new re-release relax video which was filmed 4 days ago which has Holly in it.

[ohmixmaster]

Hi PFHD!! Thanks for the reply. My goodness, Holly's back with Frankie....glad to FINALLY see it. Much appreciate the update.

[leeloodallas31]

@ohmixmaster yes,i agree. his voice still sounds chilling for our senses

[barkingbasher]

Flawless Thank you.

[nitramgnal]

[YoDrFrank]

the memories just came rushing back. Dancing with my first love alone in the dark basement with my parents upstairs not knowing what was going to happen...
