I got all his CDs off my brother back in 1986 and have just loved this man ever since, how can a voice stay so perfect over all these years, we are truly blessed to still have John touring in 2023, without doubt one of the best most enduring rock voices ever.
Walter Mirren I don't understand why classic rockers hire "wet behind the ears" nameless children to appear in their videos. John Waite is WAY WAY WAY above these emo children.
I do not think it is the artists who make the decision in most cases. John Waite is a solo artist - his albums are full of brilliant musicians who might just be butt ugly. The studios hire pretty boys to appear in the videos. I could be wrong - I usually am - but that has been my experience.
+Walter Mirren Excuse me! You are ageist, but in the reverse! Luis Maldonado and Tim Hogan are both fine and experienced musicians! Luis even co-wrote "Rough and Tumble." Tim has been playing professionally since he was 15! I think both are at least in their thirties. In case you hadn't noticed, rock music was invented by young people, and so why SHOULDN'T they be included?! If these younger men help Mr. Waite bring in new, young fans, more power to him!
I do hospitality at an Illinois venue he has played several times,attended to his needs and yes,John is like a soul mate to me as wel.I met him even before I worked hospitality.As a fellow musician he has been a top five influence for me. I have had conversations him several times and yes,he is a kind and gentle soul......Waite's stuff is unparalleled in my opinion partly because it's from the heart and his vocal style makes it discernible which is not typical in Western pop or rock music.
John Waite is back on his feet again and his latest cd/album Rough and is a classic John Waite Master piece. I'm going to see him in Tiffin OH tonight lookin forward to the show.
That song is just genius! The lyrics are so heart felt and I get chills every time that I hear it! John Waite is truly blessed with the ability to touch souls!
So Versatile and talented is John Waite - I totally obsessed with how much Musical Talent I have discovered there is from the U.K.!!!!!!! Music has to be one of the most sacred things of the Human Experience!!!!!
Looking forward to going back out on the road with John and the guys for the next leg of the tour. I have been performing with Raquel Aurilia opening up for John, and every night has been a blast. A great guy an a amazing artist to watch every night. See you soon my brother, B
Classic John. As good as it gets! If you can't relate to this you are either dead or never lived! Thanks John, See you next time you pass through Texas!
The WOMAN WHO HAS HIS HEART IS EXTREMELY LUCKY HE HAS SO MUCH HEART HE SEEMS LIKE HES A REBEL AT HEART BUT HEHAS S SOFT SIDE TO HIM......LOVE THAT MAN AND HIS MUSIC
Can't imagine John's life But I can relate to growing up with the radio. Writing music & reading and a small circle of friends is all too familiar. Love to learn more about John's life.
Awe, thank you always for being there for me and believing in me. I want you to know how much I appreciate all of your good deeds and the positive influence you've had on my life. Thank you for your concern and valuable comments. You are loved,Kimmy Big hugs John
@@johnwaite6747 You are so welcome, John! I love you! You have been the voice of sanity and comfort this past year. Any time I was overwhelmed or confused about everything that was happening, you always put it in perspective with your words of wisdom and advice. Thank you for being there for me and for your love. It means so much to me. I will always be there for you, John. ❤
Love the way your body , hair, & hands move with the music; it is an art form of its own. Live the song & John Waite.A sad song but filled with love & longing...just like life.
Awe, thank you always for being there for me and believing in me. I want you to know how much I appreciate all of your good deeds and the positive influence you've had on my life. Thank you for your concern and valuable comments. You are loved,Val Big hugs John

Only someone that has experienced a real broken heart, will understand that love is not just for young adults. The incredible amount of love it takes to wish someone well in a new life without you; is another dimension beyond "sex, drugs, & rock' n roll." Devastating.
I'm very sorry for your loss my dear I lost my dad a little over 4 and a half years ago he and I mom got divorced when I was a kid but I'm very glad to report that my mom found love again with my stepdad I'm very happy for her
If I had to narrow it down he’s my favorite male rock vocalist. There are more power voices out there but he has plenty of that too., and nobody can match his sense of melody and nuance and his vocal timbre is unique. No other singer sounds like him, he was born with this magical gift.
My absolute favorite! For some reason this song resonates deeply and I get a little emotional every time. I can't explain the power it has. I guess you just have to feel it. ❤️ you, John! My husband and I caught your show in Lodi, CA last June (2022). Don't know who was responsible for the PR, but they should be fired! The Grand Theater in Tracy, CA has been VERY successful for Y&T and 38 Special. I hope more bands/ artists come around. Best wishes, God bless! ✝️❤️
Not just an amazing singer, but an amazing songwriter, as well. Beautiful song! I always loved 'Missing You' (who didn't?), then I heard, 'How Did I Get By Without You' and this song. Such a soulful person; feels as if he puts his whole heart into everything. That is rare.
Long time fan here.....Love R&T. This is my favorite track. Everytime I listen to it I get butterflies in my tummy. ;) This is a great example of why John is my all time favorite vocalist. Just..........AWESOME!!! ♥
Around the 1:42 mark the backing guitar fingering is just magical. The fact that John arranges his music so perfectly that you can detect these intricacies without headphones further exemplifies what an astounding artist he is and has been.
I have never had the opportunity to see him live. He was at Bethel Woods in 2018, but was unable to go- some one close to me died unexpectedly. Hope I get a chance to see him multiple times. Hey, maybe they need a Bowen practitioner on their tour?
It may have been out awhile, but this song is still as lovely as ever. I think we all need to hear the 'sound of someone's voice who loves you' from time to time. Reminds me of a good friend of mine who was there for me when I was going through a rough time. He hugged me and was letting me cry on his shoulder. Then, he said 'See that tree, you are like that tree.' Just what every woman wants...to be compared to a tree! I had to stop crying and laughing, until I heard the rest of his words that comforted me. Hope that 'sound of someone's voice' does not start comparing you to a tree. Then again, maybe being compared to a tree is a good thing. For tree bark on the outside of a tree may be weak. On the inside, oak trees have especially strong hearts. Thus, they weather the elements. They weather the elements like each of us must from time to time. Thus, perhaps we are all trees..at some time, in some ways. That 'sound of someone's voice who loves you' may be giving the best advice you have ever gotten. :-) Thus, this song is lovely.
This us one of my all time favourite musicians: the amazing John Waite. He is a very unique and special character on the rock scene, singer, songwriter, painter. Love your music, John...
Amazing. John's voice sounds just like it did 20 years ago! I'm very much looking forward to seeing him in concert for this new album. Like the new material as well as any of his old stuff, still great.
What in the hell do you mean? You are wrong!! John is not at all "underrated! He is indeed worldwide recognized (in Europe, Japan and the States). Has been for decades!
Hey John, was für ein toller Song, aber Du bist auch ein ganz besonderer Musiker❤!❤! Mein besonder Respekt 😘👏👏👏❣👏👏👏
I got all his CDs off my brother back in 1986 and have just loved this man ever since, how can a voice stay so perfect over all these years, we are truly blessed to still have John touring in 2023, without doubt one of the best most enduring rock voices ever.
Neglecting us here in the UK, would love to see John live, been a fan for many years!
😅
You have a great brother. 😊 I'm seeing him this summer. 🤘✌
This man has been making stellar music for well over 40 years.
He is one of the greatest voices in music history.
Definitely agree!
Absolutely true 👍🤝💐⚘🌷❣
And songwriter.
yap i love his voice too,one of my favorite from his songs is time alone with you
The man gets older (as we all do) but the voice never ages.

Still, what a f*cking voice.
+Walter Mirren - I believe these guys were his touring band... They were in several live performances that I saw..
+Walter Mirren Excuse me! You are ageist, but in the reverse! Luis Maldonado and Tim Hogan are both fine and experienced musicians! Luis even co-wrote "Rough and Tumble."

John Waite is truly one of the best ! I had the pleasure of seeing him this year at a small venue and he was amazing ! I can’t wait to see him again .
I've known JOHN WAITE for many many many years .
He is an incredibly sweet man .
I've never grown tired of him .
He has the lovely voice of an angel .
I do hospitality at an Illinois venue he has played several times,attended to his needs and yes,John is like a soul mate to me as wel.I met him even before I worked hospitality.As a fellow musician he has been a top five influence for me.

@@ernestdigioia8524 ur so lucky u met him,im jealous
Tell him how much we all adore him
Awe
Nice
Love it! John, you rock!!!
Love John Waite an Amazing voice so talented Love him then and now
Hi Dorina 💐💐
One of the best - and most under appreciated - voices in music.
totally true dude
I agree
I agree, too
You got that right!!
Yes definitely!!!
John Waite/ Excellent songwriter, frontman, bandleader, and genuine person! A true Rock Star🤩
John Waite: Unique and heavenly voice.
Listened to Waite for 30+ years. It finally hit me, Goo Goo Dolls!! Right?
Uh, no!
Never understand why this song was not a hit!
John Waite is back on his feet again and his latest cd/album Rough and is a classic John Waite Master piece. I'm going to see him in Tiffin OH tonight lookin forward to the show.
Very amazing voice of JOHN WAITE of the band BAD ENGLISH!
And the Babys
never understood why he never got more recognition,one of the best songwriter-musicians in our generation
deflep007 Im a def leppard fan too!!!!
Susan Szabo ..Nice..I definitely think the late 70's & 80 's brought us some of the best music of our generation
Yes it did. We will never hear music like that ever again!!!!
After 5 years you wrote it, your comment still so valid.
What do you mean? He is indeed worldwide recognized. Has been for decades, although he is a very private person.
John is just a beautiful soul & singer. I never get tired of listening to his music. He is just handsome.
WOWWWW. He has aged gracefully😊
John's love songs are melancholy & tear jerkers...only because they are real emotions.
Exactly Steph
One of the best songs by Jhon that I heard very good memory
John Waite is a hidden treasure. Each song is like a Romanov-off Faberge Easter egg.
im goin throw the word genius out there. sorry. hes got a way with the dictionary. he turns a good phrase. love this guy. been in since 77
That song is just genius! The lyrics are so heart felt and I get chills every time that I hear it! John Waite is truly blessed with the ability to touch souls!
Just saw John Waite tonight and this was in the set list. What a phenomenal song. Fantastic! He’s so amazing live. Go see him if you can!
I saw John at a 200 seat venue last weekend,it was awesome!He sounded great and put on a terrific show
I just love John Waite always have. Whats wrong with radio this day that we don't hear great songs like this one.
John ❤ you're beautiful....thanks for all these years since i've heard you 👍
John has always known how to make a song sounds like sweet rock and roll. Why can't more music today follow his recipe for what music is all about...
Another, non-love song that is so endearing. Simple lyrics sometimes can't put the best inflections into complex feelings
Just hearing John Waite's voice brings happiness & hope to me.
What about a bad english reunion..!!! We love your work John..!!!
his voice hasn't lost it's clarity,still sounds the same!!
This could be a country song easily. ❤
😘💋. Yessssssssss. No new love. No new life. And I do miss you.
This man has put integrity first , along with genuine responsibility in everything he does .
this is some good medicine!
So Versatile and talented is John Waite - I totally obsessed with how much Musical Talent I have discovered there is from the U.K.!!!!!!! Music has to be one of the most sacred things of the Human Experience!!!!!
Happy birthday Mister Waite
I Never Get Tired of This Song.
Beautiful song.
What a beautiful video I love this song with nice memories... How are you Janel ?
Even if it's only the sound of someone's voice who loves you that you need to hear~....Welcome back John Waite~~Welcome back!!!!!
Every time I think of you I always think of The Babys and John Waite and the music I have so appreciated thru the years. John Waite, 'One of a Kind'.
Brilliant song !!! it's like a continuation of Missing You.
Exactly my point darling
Looking forward to going back out on the road with John and the guys for the next leg of the tour. I have been performing with Raquel Aurilia opening up for John, and every night has been a blast. A great guy an a amazing artist to watch every night. See you soon my brother, B
**LONG LIVE THE POWER BALLAD!!!!*** Much love JC!
Classic John. As good as it gets! If you can't relate to this you are either dead or never lived! Thanks John, See you next time you pass through Texas!
Saw John last night (July 22, 2012) in Rushville, IN. His live take on this tune is phenominal!! His entire performance was simply great!!
Very heartening. John continues to do what he does best. If you can do it, you should never stop. There is simply no reason to stop.
John Waite is an excellent musician and song writer! Keep it up!
This is my favorite John Waite song. I love them all...but this is gorgeous
His voice is still great!!
It is!!!! Just saw him last night ;-)
Good singer, and writer...
When John sings you listen, rare these days :)
I can listen to this song over and over again
The WOMAN WHO HAS HIS HEART IS EXTREMELY LUCKY HE HAS SO MUCH HEART HE SEEMS LIKE HES A REBEL AT HEART BUT HEHAS S SOFT SIDE TO HIM......LOVE THAT MAN AND HIS MUSIC
Great comeback of John Waite. Looking aged but with the same fresh voice
I saw bad engish i had back stage passes and i got a picture of him and I, he's a great soul and a great singer....KEEP ON ROCKIN JOHN.....

One of the best artist live. I was lucky enough to see him a week ago. Dream come true.
Very nice song. It should of charted high. John Waite still ranks as one of my favorite artists.
Once again John...Great song, wonderful lyrics. Can't Waite to hear it in person!
I am in love with John Waite. I hear my life n every song & feel every one of the emotions in every lyric.
I cannot believe John is still as good as he was when he first opened his mouth so many many decades ago!!!!
Love this song & love John.

For his age, that hair is amazing. He was blessed.
JW’s the most underrated artist ever.
Guy’s a STAR ⭐️
What in the hell do you mean? You are wrong!! John is not at all "underrated! He is indeed worldwide recognized (in Europe, Japan and the States). Has been for decades!
