    A Love Like That LYRICS
    Love like that
    How'd you find a love like that
    How'd you find a love like that
    I've been running around
    Drunk with my friends
    In Southern California
    Fools looking for you
    I can't find you anywhere
    Sure it's somebody new
    And I should know by now that we're through
    Imagine that
    How'd you find a love like that
    Swore that I could steal you back
    But now you say I can't
    Because you found a love
    I saw that you were making a toast
    'Cause I feel your ghost
    From coast to coast
    You're making love with somebody new, yeah
    And I should know damn well that we're through
    Imagine that
    You went and found a love like that, yeah
    I swore that I would steal you back
    But now he says I can't, oh
    Because you found a love like
    I don't want no one
    If I can't have you
    A world of illusions
    But baby you're true
    I know I deceived you
    I once told you lies
    If you don't believe me
    Just look in my eyes
    Like that, yeah
    How'd you find a love like that, oh
    You swore that you would be right back
    And baby that's a fact, yeah
    But now you found a love like that, yeah
    Why'd you find a love a-like a-that, babe
    We swore that we were
    All that, yeah
    God, I lost a love like that
    Now babe, why you gotta look like a-that
    When I'm trying to find a love like ours
    Ours, ours
    Wooaahh
    Na na na na na
    Na na na na na na

    I was the assistant engineer at a London studio around 2002 and Gregg used the studio to record "Lovin each day" with Ronan Keating and to listen the mixing of "I can't deny it" by Rod Stewart over ISDN (it was being mixed in New York). He had all his own engineers and didn't need us often. He had been to see Madonna perform and came back to the studio late that night and he kept calling me to bring him more Heineken to the studio, I had been burnt in a accident a couple of years before and he asked what happened and told me about some stuff that he had been through. We sat for hours chatting about life and music, he is a real genuine and unique character, not many like him in the music industry and I think he hated to be around those types. Would love to sit down for another beer with him.

    Gregg Alexander’s demo from 20+ years ago is better than anything I’ve heard on the radio in the last 10 years 😂.
    Unbelievable talent. I love great songwriters, what a talent to have.

    The "na na na na naaa" in the outro is used in the song "Life Is A Roller Coaster" he wrote for Ronan Keating.. THATS how much of a Gregg Alexander fan I am.. :)

    • @randyberthiaume6455
      @randyberthiaume6455 3 года назад +4

      That's true. A fellow fan actually merged the two songs into one at that point in each song, so that the na na na na naaa's overlap.

    New Radicals music is timeless. If they released any of their music in any decade it would stand the test of time. Everyone keeps asking for a new album. You make it and the fans will do the marketing for you. It's not 90's music, it's music for all times.

    • @cruptbside
      @cruptbside 9 лет назад +8

      FindVegan i hope greag an the boys are listening. This is a perfect album, like: Rumors, Electric lady land, aja, eagles greatest hist 2, MF Horns, stand by sly and the stones, i could go on.
      Greg could have been one of america's greatest song writers. New radicals could have been one of america's greatest groups.
      sad what happened to cause their break up.

      Like the rest of you I can not understand having so much talent and walking away.
      Every one of these songs are brilliant. The one about the OD could be a god damn miniseries.
      It's the most richly layered song I have ever heard. You don't have to write anything more if the
      system is killing you greg. Just come back and play for the faithful.

    I bought this CD way back when it was released in 1998. I was 16 years old. And I bought a bucket hat like that which I wore throughout the Summer of 1999 because I thought Gregg was so cool. ❤️

    hey dipstick/ 'new googoo' - this is clearly a DEMO, and contains more heart and soul in it then 99% of the crap out there for real at the moment...Gregg is a genius and even this rough sketch rips my heart to pieces. Gregg- soldier on my friend!!! we need your beautiful songs BAD.

  • @rebeccageffert7384

    Perhaps the most genuine, raw song I have heard. I can't believe this has not been used or released.

  • @NovaChew
    @NovaChew 14 лет назад +16

    This guy is a fucking genius, it makes me sad that he has chosen not to give out any more music, although that is probably the reason why he hasn't gone bad.
    I'm fucking in love with his voice! He makes his music with so much soul and presiscion! And the fact that his tones are sometimes a little off only adds a little life to his songs. todays artists are too scared to miss a note

    I have been on this planet for 48 years and I am very passionate about ALL music. I bought this CD when it first came out before it hit kind of big with: You get what you give. What is funny is that i bought the CD because to be honest, I bought so much music back in the day that this was one that i did not have. I remember paying for it and thinking: Well, this was a waste, but at least i bought something.
    20 some odd years later this is still one of my top 5 singers, and go to music of all time. His music is like fine wine and gets better, and better with age. So glad that i found the CD that i would replace every other year because i wore it from playing it so much.
    I am not sure if, MR. Alexander ever reads comments but if you do: Thank you sir! Thanks for over 20 years of being one of my favorite "go to" feel good music of all time, my time.

    "if you don't believe me just look in my eyes like that" at 1:44
    .... is where I basically start getting weepy... the emotion is real. I share the same sadness he exudes in this gem... listened to it over 200 times in the past 5 years...

    They should release a deluxe edition of Maybe You've Been Brainwashed Too, with bonus tracks such as this, and the B-sides from their singles. Also a few of Alexander's unreleased demos

    • @misterninetyseven2898
      @misterninetyseven2898 8 лет назад +9

      He could also make a new album, that'd be awesome. Doesn't even have to be a New Radicals reformation, it could be a solo album. (wouldn't be much different anyway)

    • @joshdea7

      wish they would. I bet it would be near impossible though considering he sold the rights to some of his songs to different artists I think.

    This will forever be the best album I've ever heard. I saw him perform on Conan when he promoted the album. I still have the performance on VHS somewhere. I watched it over and over again because I didn't have the cd. I saved my allowance for 2 weeks (CDs cost $20 back then) and rushed to the store to buy it. It wasn't long after I heard they were disbanded. This band, this album, this guy's talent will stay with me forever. I still get a kick out of watching people react to hearing New Radicals for the first time. Still finding new fans, almost 20 years after they broke up.
