I watch this video almost every single day. No one as talented as Mr Maurice White. Hope he is enjoying Heaven to it's fullest as he certainly deserves it. Thank you Mr White for all you gave to so many of us.❤❤❤
1.44 That moment when you start gettin into the groove, even when you're taping playback to your own song. Damn, I miss the times when truly great musicians like Maurice filled the radio and charts.
I wish the RUclips police hadn't taken down the original video for this song, it really made the song. I miss the 1980's, what a fun decade, we were trying to find ourselves, and be cool.
I have been searching the internet for that original video, which is such a great fun video. I was even beginning to think it was my imagination. But I don't understand what you mean about the Facebook police removing it. Whatever for? That video may be dated, but it is burnt in my memory. I really don't understand.
I prefer that other video with the woman in the sequined dress dancing with him in an alley. I think this Jane Fonda style dancer video is awful. Does anyone know the name of the woman in the sequined dress version? I believe she was a Playboy model.
When the night has come And the land is dark And the moon is the only light we see No I won't be afraid I won't be afraid Just as long as you stand, stand by me Oh, on stand by me Stand by me, stand by me If the sea that we look upon Should tumble and and fall And the mountains should crumble in the sea You know that I won't, I won't cry Oh, I won't she'd a tear Just as long as you stand, stand by me And darling, darling Stand by me, stand by me You are the light that shines in my life I reach out my hands to be with you Let's keep on believing You give me a reason, a reason to smile If the sky and the mountains tumble to the sea I'll be there as long as you stand by me All the world come together, live in harmony I can feel your love long as you stand by me Like the moon feeds the ocean Let me be your life Baby, won't you stand by me If the sky and the mountains tumble to the sea Oh baby, won't you stand by me All the world come together live in harmony Baby, won't you stand by me
I apologize for taking anything away from the master Mr. White but I never a fan of this video. I wish the original music video was uploaded. Simply can't find one. It's sooooo much better. The dancer from the original music video puts this one to shame. As far the music Maurice is a master whether it's an original or his take on a classic.
She was probably chosen by the producers of that italian television program ... Did Maurice even have his word to say ? He was in Italy to do that performance to promote his song, not sure if he had any artistic control over it the day he did it
Quality jazz drummer Premier player of the electric kalimba Astounding voice, but not quite up to the standard set by Philip Bailey, Luther Vandross and George Benson. HOWEVER When it comes to being THE world class producer Reece has NO PEERS Only one other producer is worthy of being mentioned in the same sentence That would be the magnificent Quincy Jones But even QJ can't quite match The Genius Of Mr. Maurice White And Incidentally, to quote QJ himself _[P]roclaimed himself to be the "biggest fan of Earth, Wind & Fire since day one."_
Maurice White it's one of the baddest ass performers on the planet no one can really mimic a sound! Plus Philip Bailey in the rest of the band straight-up badass!
A playback video obviously. Still searching of a real live version. The genious of this track is the arrangement and, the performances of Abraham Laboriel (bass) and Greg Phillinganes (keys). Without those this would´ve been forgotten. Now it still lives on. :-)
I like Sam Cook Lawd knows I do but Maurice put that wail on that song.. and you Earth Wind and Fire got the music.. Rest in peace Maurice you took music to another level.. LB February 8, 2023 Wednesday am
He looked better when he shaved his beard and when he sported only a moustache, from late 1983 onwards ... It probably made him look "younger" (plus he obviously had hair implants done around that time, for : when you look photos of him even in the inner photo of album "Electric Universe" from 1983 [with Earth Wind & Fire], he was almost totally bald in the front part of his head)
Do you know Miles Davis? I will not argue, but state as FACT He is THE most important musician in American History He created (or co-created) 5 different genres of music And is one of the foundational innovators of the ONLY music that has purely American origins - JAZZ What did Miles have to say about EW&F? _Miles Davis described Earth Wind & Fire as his "all time favorite band", saying, "they have everything (horns, electric guitar, singers and more) in one band"._
Only the late Andrew Woolfolk played saxophone in the group ... the Phoenix Horns were the horn section who worked with the group until 1982 but were never a part of Earth Wind & Fire
What a great musician producer and leader. RIP Mr. Maurice White EWF Eternally
I really love this version, one of the best
I ALWAYS loved 💖Maurice White's version of this song! It's so refreshing to hear his voice. It makes the song better!
It's a happy version!! Ben E. King's version is classic, but it's sad
Love him miss him what a voice😢
As only Maurice can do, his vocals are great, adding the EWF punch to the mix. Great band leader, musician, singer/songwriter/ producer!
I watch this video almost every single day. No one as talented as Mr Maurice White. Hope he is enjoying Heaven to it's fullest as he certainly deserves it. Thank you Mr White for all you gave to so many of us.❤❤❤
You are so right my fellow Maurice White fan. There is no better. RIP.Mr White. Your never gone from me. ❤
🔥 love this rendition!!! I remember when I heard the intro on the radio for the first time ..!!!! The best!!
This video is SO 80s!! AND I LOVE IT!
He is my favorite singer song writter in the world. I grew up on James Taylor, Prince, and EWF. This is how everyone should be introduced to music.

@@TheTrinizuela Me too! I remember that vid and I was looking for it just now too! I agree with everything you guys said though..👍
Why did, I think you mean RUclips, take it down?
That's the one I was searching for and landed on this one, which is nice too, but I like the original one better. 💖
I prefer that other video with the woman in the sequined dress dancing with him in an alley. I think this Jane Fonda style dancer video is awful. Does anyone know the name of the woman in the sequined dress version? I believe she was a Playboy model.
My fav song by Maurice. RIP
His voice , all day 🔁
When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we see
No I won't be afraid
I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
Oh, on stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me
If the sea that we look upon
Should tumble and and fall
And the mountains should crumble in the sea
You know that I won't, I won't cry
Oh, I won't she'd a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darling, darling
Stand by me, stand by me
You are the light that shines in my life
I reach out my hands to be with you
Let's keep on believing
You give me a reason, a reason to smile
If the sky and the mountains tumble to the sea
I'll be there as long as you stand by me
All the world come together, live in harmony
I can feel your love long as you stand by me
Like the moon feeds the ocean
Let me be your life
Baby, won't you stand by me
If the sky and the mountains tumble to the sea
Oh baby, won't you stand by me
All the world come together live in harmony
Baby, won't you stand by me
Love his voice. He sounds good 👍
I apologize for taking anything away from the master Mr. White but I never a fan of this video. I wish the original music video was uploaded. Simply can't find one. It's sooooo much better.

良いねー！
在りし日を偲んで。
I wish I could the original video. It seemed his vocals were better. This is a beautiful woman btw
I like Maurice's version much better than the original. May he RIP 💖
Maurice and the song are putting on a performance. I don’t know what the lady is doing.
🤩🤩I say the same as you he should have chosen much better!!!
Absolutely. She's not sexy in that pathetic outfit and she can't dance. He should've done this video alone.
She was probably chosen by the producers of that italian television program ... Did Maurice even have his word to say ? He was in Italy to do that performance to promote his song, not sure if he had any artistic control over it the day he did it
Disappointing as I was a great fan of EWF. Sound like stand by me standard song
I love his falsetto.
Quality jazz drummer
Premier player of the electric kalimba
Astounding voice, but not quite up to the standard set by Philip Bailey, Luther Vandross and George Benson.
HOWEVER
When it comes to being THE world class producer
Reece has NO PEERS
Only one other producer is worthy of being mentioned in the same sentence
That would be the magnificent Quincy Jones
But even QJ can't quite match
The Genius Of Mr. Maurice White
And Incidentally, to quote QJ himself
_[P]roclaimed himself to be the "biggest fan of Earth, Wind & Fire since day one."_
A nice classic cover of a classic song.
R.I.P Maurice, my fav version of this song.
Maurice White it's one of the baddest ass performers on the planet no one can really mimic a sound! Plus Philip Bailey in the rest of the band straight-up badass!
What is this dancer name? Wasnt she from Solid Gold
MAURICE WHITE INMORTAL SIEMPRE¡ R.I.P
No one could match this legand .
This sounds like Earth Wind And Fire doing Stand By Me
Why would it not?
Maurice was the genius, leader, founder, writer, ,producer, arranger and soul of EW&F
CLASSIC
Talent unmatched. 🐅
Thanks for uploading this masterpiece! It was taken down some years ago
❤
Better than the rest.
Classic
What a loss:(
Cool song, I miss the 80s
MAURICE IS THE MAN! but benny king nailed it!
Extraordinario cantante .Maurice white .un Genio de la música .
Song is dope!
dug the cover and the video was cool.. Maurice white one of the most important musical artists ever, rip, respect and appreciate
Love this
Pretty young lady with him !
A playback video obviously. Still searching of a real live version. The genious of this track is the arrangement and, the performances of Abraham Laboriel (bass) and Greg Phillinganes (keys). Without those this would´ve been forgotten. Now it still lives on. :-)
What is this, Solid Gold dancers?
Nope !
It was a performance Maurice White did on Italian television, back in 1985 (so that was in Italy)
That Fine lady !
maurice white nous manque ! c'etait un sacrè artiste!
That girl isn't much of a dancer
I agree. I got sick of seeing her puny behind in the camera. Maurice should've done this video alone. She did NOTHING to enhance it.
Well ... 1980s italian stuff, you know
I thought it was Maurice's song.Cool to sing.
Who is the young lady?
Probably just an italian dancer for working for television (this was in Italy, indeed ...)
I like Sam Cook Lawd knows I do but Maurice put that wail on that song.. and you Earth Wind and Fire got the music.. Rest in peace Maurice you took music to another level.. LB February 8, 2023 Wednesday am
But F.Y.I it was Ben E King that did this song.
the Soul days, sometimes is the best... I wish everyone good misses this...
10000000000000............
Me,jezza and our uso Frank….1986
天国でもダンスしてるでしょう、最高！❤🎉
I wish I had an ounce of Marices charisma
Maurice ❤
Semper Fi!!!!!
Maurice 💜🖤💜
R.I.P 😥❤️
アレンジも最高ですね。
R.I.P.
The Best!
彼の素晴らしい歌声をフルに使った素晴らしい曲です！もっと売れても良かった。
j'adore cette reprise!!!
Cold classic
Monumental.
Wow! Who's that cute girl?
Probably just a dancer who worked for italian television (yes : Maurice did that performance in Italy, back in 1985)
He looked good for 44 at the time.
He looked better when he shaved his beard and when he sported only a moustache, from late 1983 onwards ... It probably made him look "younger" (plus he obviously had hair implants done around that time, for : when you look photos of him even in the inner photo of album "Electric Universe" from 1983 [with Earth Wind & Fire], he was almost totally bald in the front part of his head)
Do you know Miles Davis?
I will not argue, but state as FACT
He is THE most important musician in American History
He created (or co-created) 5 different genres of music
And is one of the foundational innovators of the ONLY music that has purely American origins - JAZZ
What did Miles have to say about EW&F?
_Miles Davis described Earth Wind & Fire as his "all time favorite band", saying, "they have everything (horns, electric guitar, singers and more) in one band"._
Only the late Andrew Woolfolk played saxophone in the group ... the Phoenix Horns were the horn section who worked with the group until 1982 but were never a part of Earth Wind & Fire
