@@3mfilmstudios150 What a great suggestion/comparison - love both !!! Saw both live - both of them have that romantic/against the grain edge wicked sense of humor (Morrissey in particular)
💯 He’s also hilarious, he had a talk show briefly in the 90s and I was pleasantly surprised to find out he had such a great sense of humor-total package plus bonuses
I've taken the opportunity to learn a bit about Chris' character. 2 things that stand out: 1. He's never missed a show 2. He won't get married & have a family because a family deserves more attention than he can give them with his chosen profession. On top of being a really great guy, he OOZES sexuality, and I ❤️ his voice!
I’ve had the pleasure of seeing many live Chris Isaak shows and he is a wonderful showman and performer. Beautiful voice, exquisitely tailored suits and perfect hair. Legend 🤩👍🏼💖💖💖💖
I miss Jimmy Calvin... Nobody played like him. And I agree, that especially while he was in the band, they were THE rockin'est band on the West coast, y'all. They're still great and Chris is a truly wonderful guy.
Agree I was lucky enough to see Chris when James Calvin Wilsey was still in Silvertone. One of the best shows I ever saw. The latter albums have great songs but the first three Chris Isaak albums with Wilsey on guitar are perfect!
Love this song and the more laid back smoother version he did years later. Love the doo-wop girls in the background who don't doo-wop but are so effin essential in giving off a sexy 50's vibe! Chris is in my top 5 male vocalist in my book! 👍👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥
I taped this video on "Friday Night Videos" and was awestruck! His amazing voice and stage presence! Sultry back up singers that don't sing. Non-gated snare drum sound that defied the 80s! James Wilsey on slow guitar. Whew. I put away all my other records and couldn't wait for his next release.
Those early years were amazing! Things got a little tender and sappy over the years but he and the band have certainly maintained their integrity. How fortunate for you to have seen this from the start, 85 was the year I was born!
I remember U68,that was very cool.I remember also channel 59 and 63 where in the early 80s they had the first video starting at roughly 8am and the last one at midnight.They would have Cinemattractions at least 3 times a day.You would be shown a clip from a movie and asked a question. The person that called with the correct answer would win a prize.Example,they had one from "The Heavenly Kid".now the question was "How many cigarettes landed on the pizza?I was over anxious and said 4".Very close,but it was actually 3.Disappointed ,prize was camping equipment. Now,most,if not all would have singer or group name ,the song and record company.All info for each in the bottom left corner of the screen ,for instance,Sheena Easton,Sugar Walls, EMI.A video could be shown without the info e.g.PRince and the Revolution ,"Automatic ".
I keep on dancin', dancin'. Nothing left to say, nothing left to do. I find myself alone, I'm thinking just of you. You got me dancin', dancin'. Why don't you help me? Why don't you guide me?

This hit from Chris Isaak was heard on the Miami Vice episode, Payback, which aired on March 14, 1986. Miami Vice will always be one of my all-time favorite shows. It was the first to combine MTV with police action drama.
Every time I watch these old Chris Isaak videos, they make me need to find a man. But no man is that cool, that cute and that amazing character like he is. What a man!
Don't forget the wicked sense of humor! It makes him admirable, he doesn't take himself so seriously. Met him over 10 years ago, he was warm, courteous, and YAAS, way handsome!
his first album Silvertone was his best.....he impersonated real Rockabilly in a time when it was near death...like nowadays!!..thnx for this great tune & video!!
Wow, what a beautifully haunting sound! ❤ Would be great for a late night slow drive. I've always found Wicked Game an incredible song... I didn't realise there were more!
That's right *Love is not something you can command* ...and how I love, Chris Isaak... So Lucky to have interviewed you years ago for your HEART SHAPED WORLD album, in 1989. (I had a crush on you then, and still do now...😍🤗 Lol 😆) YOU go, Chris!😎🎸 Melody Fox (aka the Princess of Rock) LPeaceM
Yeah I was at that one too, been following him since 1991, and I named my son Isaak in 1996. I liked the name anyhow but added a K at the end so it wasn’t too Hebrew sounding and cos I of this angst driven crooner also.
@waspsnorter1714 I became interested in him around about the same time. Got most of his albums. When I was telling my friends about going to see him, unbelievably most had never heard of him........they don't know what they're missing!!!
What??? Why isn't Blue Spanish Sky on here? That's better than 3 of the 4 songs you listed... and maybe better than Wicked Games, but the video puts it on top!

Great. I have been looking for this tune for most of ...oh about 30 years...since hearing it in an episode of Miami Vice. Googling lyrics is tricky, you know?
If there's possibly 1 supreme Chris Isaak song - it would be: 'Dancing' !!! Nobody in Rock'n'Roll has ever put the lyrical and musical dark undertones in compositions like Chris - TheMan !!!
I've been reading some of these old comments and it dismays me that so many compared him to Elvis. Chris is one of a kind. In his own category. So why did I, in 2021, just discover him? I'm pretty sure I wasn't living under a rock. Wasn't he promoted (another word for worked to death) well when he first started? Regardless, he's got a fantastic voice and is talented beyond belief! I'm sorry I missed him "back in the day".
I know I'm in the minority here but Elvis never did a thing for me, in any aspect. Chris **is** one of a kind. The fact he *looks* like the clean-cut, All-American boy-next-door type, but just under the surface is all this dark, gritty underbelly - but also totally tongue-in-cheek - vibe is what makes him **wholly** original. 👍🏼
The problem is the marketing of popular music. Most will try to sell you a face before they sell you the actual product. Consequentially, many people who consume music only do so at face value (pun intended lol) It reminds me of when Oasis got big because people began to compare them to The Beatles. An utterly ridiculous comparison because they're nothing alike. Liam Gallagher simply had a mop top. Chris and Elvis are nothing alike.
Chris is just so hot!!! I just saw him and Silvertone a couple of weeks ago in Vegas. I wish he'd put "Lie to Me" back on their set list, as it, "Blue Hotel," and "Kings of the Highway" are my favorite three Chris songs. What a voice, what a man!
I first saw the band at a college bar in Virginia back in the 80's. I think the Silvertone album had not been out long. Obviously, the show was perfect. it was a small venue but the sound they made was incredible. Of all the comments I hear about the voice, the band, his looks and hair, one major thing is overlooked... his sense of humour! He said so much hilarious stuff between songs that you are convinced if his couldn't play music, he could easily have been a comedian. Also, take a look at his nose, the man was an accomplished boxer too! Point is he is a man's man, great guy, super talented and good hearted. Mondo props to him and the Silvertones.
I completely adore this song, today there is just no-thing sexier...and that is my favorite feeling in this life. I need Kinna Granis to cover this!!!!!!
All people ever talk about when he comes up is wicked game but this whole album was a million times better. Sadly overlooked.

Well Wicked Game is so haunting. It's just one of those songs that stays in your head when you hear it.
@@kaptainasskrak True, so true.
This man is Elvis of 80's and even more handsome🔥🔥🔥💗
The best pompadour since Elvis--and one hell of a debut single. Fantastic album, as well.
Yeah he has great style.
Kinda early Clint Eastwood ... ala Rowdy Yates.
Yeah in the 90s he was our 50s nostalgia and now he is still that but he is our 90s nostalgia too. What a dreamboat.
Don't forget Morrissey

What a great suggestion/comparison - love both !!!
Saw both live - both of them have that romantic/against the grain edge wicked sense of humor (Morrissey in particular)
I’ve never seen a more handsome man with such a beautiful voice...
It's almost criminal in the best way possible!😊
💯 He’s also hilarious, he had a talk show briefly in the 90s and I was pleasantly surprised to find out he had such a great sense of humor-total package plus bonuses
@@vdussaut9182 yeeessss! I discovered his sitcom a few months ago, so funny!
He's also an actor 😊

2. He won't get married & have a family because a family deserves more attention than he can give them with his chosen profession.

He's got a ring now. Saw him in San Jose. Guess he's been with his long time high school lover for years.
I’ve had the pleasure of seeing many live Chris Isaak shows and he is a wonderful showman and performer. Beautiful voice, exquisitely tailored suits and perfect hair. Legend 🤩👍🏼💖💖💖💖
nice
Shout-out to the absolutely stellar guitar work by James Calvin Wilsey on this track
YES! 100%
May he "Rest in Peace"
His imprint on the early Chris Isaak records is so huge...
Indeed
That Strat reverb!
One of the most underrated 🎸 guitarists of all time 😢! RIP
I miss Jimmy Calvin... Nobody played like him. And I agree, that especially while he was in the band, they were THE rockin'est band on the West coast, y'all. They're still great and Chris is a truly wonderful guy.
Chris is in a hibernation chamber, never ages and each time you play it, sounds better and better...
I love him. Has a beautiful voice and is so handsome. All songs make me feel happy. México loves you Chris Isaac thanks ! 😍😘
The voice, the looks, the production, the video... goodbye golden era of pop music.
James Calvin Wilsey gave that extra to many of Isaak's songs. Rest in peace James.
Agree I was lucky enough to see Chris when James Calvin Wilsey was still in Silvertone. One of the best shows I ever saw. The latter albums have great songs but the first three Chris Isaak albums with Wilsey on guitar are perfect!
Agree 100%! Must have seen Jimmy with Chris a dozen times - best shows ever!
RIP🎸😎
This man has a great voice and style not to mention he's drop dead gorgeous....
Love this song and the more laid back smoother version he did years later. Love the doo-wop girls in the background who don't doo-wop but are so effin essential in giving off a sexy 50's vibe! Chris is in my top 5 male vocalist in my book! 👍👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥
One of the best live concerts I’ve ever attended - what a show…..!!!
Check this Chris Isaak - Super Magic/Blue Hotel (Live) ruclips.net/video/ufOvNNfk--Y/видео.html
I taped this video on "Friday Night Videos" and was awestruck! His amazing voice and stage presence! Sultry back up singers that don't sing. Non-gated snare drum sound that defied the 80s! James Wilsey on slow guitar. Whew. I put away all my other records and couldn't wait for his next release.
I’ve loved Chris Isaak since I was 16 in the 90’s and now my daughters do too. The world’s sexiest man hands down
one of my favorite's from Chris Isaac, the vibe is amazing 1 chord song!! He moves Like Jim Carey in Ace Ventura 0:52
My first cassette tape was Chris Isaak back when I was a kid. Had no clue this song even existed. How it didn’t reach the charts is beyond me.
First saw this video on U68 in 1985. Been a hardcore fan ever since. Silvertone is a perfect album.
Those early years were amazing! Things got a little tender and sappy over the years but he and the band have certainly maintained their integrity. How fortunate for you to have seen this from the start, 85 was the year I was born!
I remember U68,that was very cool.I remember also channel 59 and 63 where in the early 80s they had the first video starting at roughly 8am and the last one at midnight.They would have Cinemattractions at least 3 times a day.You would be shown a clip from a movie and asked a question.

Damn he's sooooo talented soooooo handsome!!!! Love the pomp !!!! Saw him at a hootenanny yrs back !!!!!
Talented as hell! I saw him live in the late 90s, and it was a such a memorable show.
I keep on dancin', dancin'.
Nothing left to say, nothing left to do.
I find myself alone, I'm thinking just of you.
You got me dancin', dancin'.
Why don't you help me? Why don't you guide me?
Why don't you promise? To stand beside me.
There was a man in a foreign land, in love with a woman that didn't understand.
Love is not a thing you command, love is something that keeps you and keeps you.
Dancin', dancin'.
Why don't you help me? Why don't you guide me?
Why don't you promise? To stand beside me.
I keep on dancin', dancin'.

Dancin', dancin', dancin', you've got me, ohhhh, help me!
Guide me, why don't you promise, to stand beside me.
Help me, ohhhh!
He’s ‘ one of a kind’ 👌so much class!!
First saw this video on U68 in 1985. Been a hardcore fan ever since. Silvertone is a perfect album.
loved this since I was 17. Still brilliant.
Dovie,
Right you are:
Silverstone is a magical album; in my opinion the best "Rock-'n'-roll" album of all time!
This hit from Chris Isaak was heard on the Miami Vice episode, Payback, which aired on March 14, 1986. Miami Vice will always be one of my all-time favorite shows. It was the first to combine MTV with police action drama.
Precisely what brought me here brother
*He's bringing the Elvis vibes*
Elvis and Roy Orbison 💗💗💗
Tres belle voix. 👍J aime énormément ♥️♥️ Tres bel homme. Un charme fou 😍😍. Dans la même lignée qu Elvis. Love you 💕💕
oui
One of the last true rock'n'roll artists. Lots of love from Russia
still sounds badass after all these years , this
video puts the 😎 in cool.
loved this since I was 17. Still brilliant.
Every time I watch these old Chris Isaak videos, they make me need to find a man. But no man is that cool, that cute and that amazing character like he is. What a man!

And no man would go near you!
Tina H you are too judgemental
Shitloads exist, but they're out of your league, lets be honest.
HIS FIRST ALBUM! I still have it on vinyl thank God!
Good Vibes with this one! The sultry uplifting rhythm got me..Dancin'💗🥰💃
1:00 James Calvin Wilsey, the lead guitarist, hidden legend behind many Isaak's top songs!!!!
I agree! Jimmy was so underrated 😢. His guitar work was brilliant!
Simply the best.. .Chris Isaac
You made me Dancin' forever with your music. Awesome voice
his first album Silvertone was his best.....he impersonated real Rockabilly in a time when it was near death...like nowadays!!..thnx for this great tune & video!!
One of his best songs
We need this style back
old-time-favourite . . . just great!
You made me Dancin' forever with your music. Awesome voice
Saw Chris a few yrs ago at the South Shore Music Circus Cohasset, Mass. What a show. There was only him & his guitar and a beat boxer.
Wow. So young here! He had such a good sound even then.
How did I just find out that Chris Isaak is awesome? Great song.
Pure gold!!
Legend. That is the best way to describe this man.
Wow, what a beautifully haunting sound! ❤ Would be great for a late night slow drive. I've always found Wicked Game an incredible song... I didn't realise there were more!
This makes me want to slow dance barefooted in a dark moonlit room.
Very Tarantino ;)
This may be the THE best response I’ve ever heard to a fabulous song, by an outstanding artist. I wholeheartedly agree with you. 👍👍👍😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
If it was moonlit I don't think it would be that dark. But I feel what your saying
Love barefoot
hi, have you heard his BAJA version it's even more subtle and smooth and romantic

Je n'ose avouer combien de fois je suis capable d'écouter ce titre d'affilée.
Beaucoup.
Saw him in concert last night at Wolverhampton in England, bought the best tickets and had the best time
I was at that concert (30.06.2023). Last saw him at Manchester when he did the "Beyond the Sun" tour about 11 years ago. Both were fantastic.
Yeah I was at that one too, been following him since 1991, and I named my son Isaak in 1996. I liked the name anyhow but added a K at the end so it wasn’t too Hebrew sounding and cos I of this angst driven crooner also.

Now I can’t stop listening to him
Fascinating voice Great song 💫🎶🌹
As long as i keep loving Chris i'll never die.
Lovin' the love for Chris, but what about Cal? Those guitar tones are just as beauty as Chris' voice!
Yes indeed. James Calvin Wilsey the most underrated, brilliant guitarist of all time!
This is my favorite Chris Isaak song. And yes 2 things....that was Denise Crosby and he looks like Elvis.
Like *Denise Crosby* from Star Trek?
@@franciscodeighton3223 Exactly, it is her!
this man is unbelievably beautiful
He is maybe the last one of his type, i mean like Elvis type look alike singer with great songs!!!
He has son much talent!!!! Great!!!!!
1) Dancin',
2) Wicked Game,
3) You Owe Some Kind of Love,
4) Blue Hotel.
The most.
Even though I love Dancing the activity that is I would put Wicked Game easily first although this song is good too!
What??? Why isn't Blue Spanish Sky on here? That's better than 3 of the 4 songs you listed... and maybe better than Wicked Games, but the video puts it on top!
Life will go on.
Lie To Me.
