- Опубликовано: 7 июн 2009
- "On My Own" was a hit duet by singers Patti LaBelle and Michael McDonald when it was released as a single in 1986. It was released from LaBelle's first platinum album, Winner in You and was written and produced by Burt Bacharach and his former wife Carole Bayer Sager. The song was based on a relationship that had reached its end with both parties going their separate ways in a melancholy state with the occasional option of coming back together again one dayThe song became the biggest single ever for both singers, both of whom were members of respective funk/R&B groups in the 1970s: LaBelle and The Doobie Brothers - as it hit number one on the Billboard magazine pop, for 3 weeks, the R&B and Adult Contemporary charts, as well as number two in the UK singles chart, going gold - (it was the 22nd best-selling single of 1986 in the UK). The song was initially not intended to be a duet at all, but LaBelle decided to invite McDonald to help her turn the song into a duet, as she stated: "The song was sent to me and I did a version of it but somehow it just didn't quite work. We were going over things I'd done and we talked about turning it into a duet. Someone asked, 'If you could do it with anyone, who would you sing it with,' and Michael was my first choice..."

Hear, hear. When times were good. Unlike today.

@@Getrealpeeps grammar police not aloud! Everyone is guilty of it. No need to call someone out on it!
@@Getrealpeeps The internet has more to offer than a chance to throw shade toward strangers

See, this is the music that NEVER, EVER, EVER gets old or feels old! You can play the song, and it feels new every time❤
I hear you! Same☮️✌️
@@tomkohlman8110 Hard to believe this timeless classic ballad will be turning 40 in 2026! This song certainly is aging better than I am 😂

Wish they would do some more music together. They are both absolutely amazing. Still listening in 2024 .
💯❤️
Me too.
The 80s. When music was about talent and meant something.
Amen to that
Well said there we the best years
Word
💯
I can't agree more. The more years pass by the more we see trash and call it music. It goes beyond lack of talent. It also involves lack of appreciation and sense of good music.
Here in 2023 and I still listen to this song and I still enjoy it music is what keeps me going
God it really shows how shite music is in 2023
7/30/23, still LOVE this song

Michael and Patti chemistry loaded with class top top song 😊😊😊
yep
80’s and 90’s the last best decades ever. We come back to these classics because there are no more being made.
Those first few beautiful notes instantly transported me back to 1986! How has 37 years gone by so fast! I miss those years more every day the older I get!😢
To all those amazing memories and days we thought would last forever!❤
I know were you are coming from 1986 was when I met my first love we used to dance to this 💕
@@samanthagorman2433
To be able to go back for only a moment!♥️
I did go back in 2016 (after 30yrs apart) sent him a Facebook message as we lived two islands apart met up and it felt like I was in heaven we even slow danced to all our favourite songs again but he passed away in July 💔every day I wish I was in his world 🙏🏽 He certainly was My First My Last My Everything 🦋💔💙🦋
Times were easier back than. Being a kid in the 80s was a great time. MTV actually played music videos.
This was real music make you want to get a glass of wine and just chill
The harmony is perfect. Patti ends a the song by blowing us all away with that crescendo.
This was pure talent! It wasn't about the money. It was about putting good music out there for the world to hear.
Absolute CLASSIC song 🎵 ❤
ON MY OWN .....NOW THAT MY MOTHER IS UP N HEAVEN
MISS HER EACH AND EVERY DAY 😢LOVE ALWAYS

LIFE ISNT THE SAME MY MOMMA IS GONE
This Duo Is Untouchable!
Legendary Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell - they were untouchable.
i am 43yrs this month, music has been a big part of my life. Thank God for giving me parents (RIP) who were music lovers, because of them i have a library of songs my mates havent heard. Truly the 80s & 90s were the best years not just for music, but for humanity.
My husband passed away in April of this year, this song expresses my grief better than any words I can express
So sorry for your loss ❤
Music is comforting to the soul. Sorry for your loss and hope you're doing better.
So sorry for the lost of your loving husband. Please, take heart and may the almighty ALLAH pacify your heart
Blessings 💛💛💛
Sorry for your loss ❤️amen 🙏
Classy woman! Class is a lost art today
This is talent beyond belief these were great times love it
Singing about something that really matters,love and devotion
Best generation of music we ever had
This is when music was music from the 60s to the 80s how I want to go back and stay.
I hear ya! ☮️✌️
Fine Art period

Still is a classic love his voice in this ❤
This song can out when my beloved parents divorced and I cried like the little I was because I thought they'd be together forever, I WAS ON MY OWN🥺😔!!
According to you. It was really a "Great" time to be growing up in The 70's and 80's. We can relate to this Music.NOT what we are Listening to NOW. OUR Times were,and still is The BEST.
RIP Bert Bacharach
This song is nostalgic, I love it then and still love it today
Oh my what a team
Came out of High School in 87...the feeling of listening to them in 2023....just too much
Saw Michael McDonald in concert with Doobie Bros and again when he went solo. I always was attracted to him, his voice, and his commitment to family. Can we clone him?
How beautiful was/is Patti LaBelle? Michael McDonald has the most recognizable voice in music. I LOVE this duet and especially the video!!
Sad sad song.....ending a relationship 💔🥺but so so beautiful
😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤
Yes it had lots of love ❤❤❤❤
Best duet I can remember
2024 and still awesome

Que calidad de artistas, que música más linda, vivan los 80
Beautiful reminds me of my marriage and divorce after almost 40 years but life goes on I guess.
This song needed more recognition. The words, the harmony easily puts you in that sad place.

💙😔
Love this song
Great song and yes still listening 11/30/23 5:47am😊
The time when music music was❤
I loved that they made this song without being in the same studio! Michael on the West coast and Patti on the East coast and look what kind of magic happens when you have REAL talent and no AUTO TUNE or any of that cover up B.S. Two amazing and talented people.
1986 was a great year
When I was born January 1986
One of the most beautiful songs ever written and sang. The voices are so sensual.
Beautiful song...
Bella cancion con estos magnificos exponentes de esta musica tan maravillosa de los 80 maravillosa epoca
This duet is beautiful . Patti Labelle and Michael ❤
This song was my Mum's favourite, blasting outbox her boombox after losing Dad at 60y in 1984. So lonely, until d.2005. Such heartfelt memories in these voices, such lyrics (!) Inconsolable longing but ohh such solace. This is not how it was supposed to be... Happy Mother's Day in Renton, WA. Dancing, and your blue eyes❤
Beautiful music 🎶👏👏👏👏👏
still listing thank you
Do you know how much I love this music.
An Instant classic! One of the most beautiful love songs ever written!
The best
Tears in my eyes when I hear this beautiful song. The year we parted....
U can not beat the old music ❤
They are so talented.
No meds., no liar, no none embarrassed friends, ahhhhhh the gift of picking and choosing who is allowed in ur space! One thing you demand as one mature. Being around bullying is exhausting yet those who love to make people say there name 24/7. Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh listen no drama 👅😜🥲
