Lyrics:
By the look in your eye I can tell you're gonna cry.
Is it over me?
If it is, save your tears
For I'm not worth it, you see.
For I'm the type of boy who is always on the roam.
Wherever I lay my hat that's my home,
I'm telling you that's my home.
You had romance, did you break it by chance
Over me?
If it's so I'd like for you to know
That I'm not worth it, you see.
For I'm the type of boy who is always on the roam, mm.
Wherever I lay my hat that's my home,
Mm, that's my home.
Oh, you keep telling me, you keep telling me I'm your man.
What do I have to do... to make you understand?
For I'm the type of guy who gives the girl the eye,
Everybody knows.
But I love them and I leave them,
Break their hearts and deceive them everywhere I go.
Don't you know that, I'm the type of man who is always on the roam,
Wherever I lay my hat that's my home.
Wherever I lay my hat, oh oh, that's my home, mm yeh,
That's my home
And I like it that way.
You know I can't, make it on the phone.
Sometimes that's the way, that's the way...
I'm not saying,
I'm not saying I don't love you,
Just gotta do...
Music video by Paul Young performing Wherever I Lay My Hat (That's My Home). (C)1983 Sony Music Entertainment (UK)Ltd.
A truly iconic song of the 80s. ...takes me straight back to being an 8yr old kid ....riding my bmx... break dancing.. climbing trees and playing what would become classic 80s tracks on my ghetto blaster. ...miss those days big time.
Exactly. Listening to it now as a 39yr old. Awesome.
John Kehoe ....listening to it as a 51 year old, and still loving it every bit as much as in the 80s
yeah man i was 7
What a load of cringe.
Always wish i was a teenager in the 80s no iPhones, just a Raleigh burner and xr2 and some proper music
Between Pino’s incredible bass playing and Paul’s amazing soul voice, that’s what makes me listen to this track to this day.
Pino is an amazing bassist. I must admit I've been on a bit of a pino trip today.
I find this song because of Pino Palladino. Amazing fretless basslines.
Was Pino involved in the Commodores 'nightshift' because this song sounds super similar musically
🧀
@@chrishayworth282 paul also had an amazing guitar player as well
Paul Young's best song.
Paul Young - a fantastic smooth voice. This track, shows his voice to perfection. The 80's were full of great bands, and great emerging talents. Boy...........does time fly by!!!
Man.. how much i miss the old times. Real Music.
the boy pino palladino killin it on bass, so excellent
Nick Merrick all about the pino
Pino's Bass lines are always amazing!!!
Again in English please?
Awesome tune
The Who? :)
a true sound of the 80s that bass line and pauls vocals classic
+melody maker and the 808
+George Mcrogers Not forgetting Pino Palladino' amazing bass playing (fretless Musicman bass and Boss OC-2 Octaver pedal).
that's a CR-78, isn't it?
the 0c2 was on tear your playhouse down, and in a few others but just bit's
yes it was.
It was early 1984 and there was only one radio station back then, playing the music us kids liked. At 1am or so there was a show bringing new releases and I was - as so often then - lying on the floor in front of my Technics Stereo-Tower with my headphones on (my parents wouldn't approve of me being up that late and not getting enough sleep for the following school-day) - listening to what was new. The guy on the radio said something about an all new and unknown artist from GB and his new single "Wherever I Lay My Hat". I always recorded the show to be among the first ones to have a tape of the new songs. Damn, was I glad to having recorded this particular show!
Somewhere in some old box among all the crap that I left behind , somewhere in my parents' house, some 9,000 miles from here, there's still this tape that I've listened to over and over and over again..
Telling you that’s my home!
Summer 1983 no.1 hit in the UK! :)
Everyone who misses the 80's say "Aye"............
Nick W born in 87 but ayemen!
Aye
“Aye”............
Aye
Aye but only for the music 💕
Thanks Paul
There's no better years than the 80's , I missed it so much!
Music at its finest ,we was the lucky ones to witness this era .I'm so pleased I was born in 1973 😊
70 for me 1👍
I discovered this song today on Spotify. WOWWW!! I'm obsessed with it😭😭. It brought me to tears for some reason. Wow if this was the 80s what crap are we listening to now??
I found it on apotify at work as well and loved it so.. and here I am trying to find out about it listeneing to it over and over . Such a smooth soothing song.
Deep crap.
@@crystalfrye1707 litterally spotifyied it today at work, had on loop since iv got home
@@Kopite19877 cool 😎 I never heard it until the last post.
I know a lot of music ,but this one I guess it was hidden . I use to listen to more rock years ago. I don't so much anymore. God has changed my life and I live and serve the lord and sing in church and that is what I love and enjoy doing .
Years ago I sang Kareokee numerous places and loved to sing everything.
Enjoy the song 🎵 it is different for sure . It seems like a timeless (missed/ hidden ) classic . It should have been broadcasted more!
I still hear it at work sometimes!!😊
The 80s: when even straying douchebags would still serenade a love song 😂
Even today still super cool 😎 👌 😌
This is a magic song, the bass is incredible.
I played this at my brother s funeral. That was 36 years ago. Thank you for uploading.
I'm sorry about the loss of your brother. How old was he when he passed away?
@@bethhewitt6400 he was just 17, 6 weeks out from his 18th. This was 27 Oct 1983. It’s been a long 38 years coming up.
Sorry for you loss.
Takes me back to the 80’s when I thought I’d never find love. I’m 64 now, found myself a lovely wife, grandfather. Life turned out ok.
Newhamsteve
Wow, that really gave me hope. I hope you have an amazing rest of your life!
Bless u
Thanks. Same to you.
Cheers.
For anyone who has enjoyed a nomadic lifestyle, will truly appreciate this song. Wherever I lay my head that's my home, I'd say to people to folks that seem to think that living in just one place equates happiness. There's a world of beauty with a perfect anthem.
Totally get this!
sounds like its refering to sleeping with different women, with no commitment.
Yea, just singing about being a top shagger that’s all
@@travellingman8754 an that as well. 😉😉
1983 was a stupendous year musically, cannot believe that this rendition/ reinterpretation of the Marvin Gaye song is now FORTY ONE YEARS young
Indeed so too.
A classic from an English gentleman, thank you Mr Paul Young for all your great hits..
Indeed...I love this version of the song.
so underrated as a singer
1 of favourite songs
The 80s is the best decade, musically.
Every decade says that. Everyone's a king in their own house.
Not a patch on the 70s 70s had everything
Crap
That’s objectively true. Hence the sales of songs from that decade are higher than any other
Colin Smith That has more to do with expendable income than quality of music :)
Beautifully produced. The synths and keyboards are perfectly placed and executed. A fine Paul Young memory!
Such a simple arpeggio too, but it almost single handedly makes the song. It balances out the bass and vocals perfectly. I was surprised that this melody wasn’t part of the original
You people are mental. That's some of the best bass guitar playing ever, and everyone ignores it and points out everything else.
I agree. The bass playing is top notch. But different things stand out to different people. For myself and some people it's the keyboards and synths. And for others, it might be the bass, guitars or percussion. It depends on the individual and what they notice and tune into.
19 year old me sobbing over a man in my bedroom and this song comes on...every word spoke to me. Favourite song ever since. 40 now...
I loved seeing him sing this live.. The 80s are gone.. But in my heart I will cherish it forever.
He's coming on the 80s Cruise (out of Florida) in March.
Number q
Soul music
This song truly brings back the 80's. A time when we intelligently celebrated diversity and inclusion didn't even need to be mentioned as it just happened naturally. Hate and racism rarely reared their ugly heads. The future seemed powerfully optimistic. Forty years later and it's like we've returned to the bleakness of WWII - regressing 40 years.
80's music is a momentary escape into an optimistic past.
Such a beautiful song 🎵
The beauty and pain of loving someone who wants to roam free❤️🩹
Paul young one of the best singers in the world
There's something really magical about Paul Young's singing and the 80s; precious memories of my teen years! Thank you for these songs. 😘🥰😍
A true classic mastered by Paul Young. He made this song his own
that he did! He really did!
Love this, I agree with you, 👍🤓
Bluenose 47 Yep! I like it better than the original and that’s saying something because I’m a big Marvin Gaye fan.
still think paul young was the best of the 80s,great voice and songs, takes me back to a good time good place, most music now is rubbish except for a few artists,thank for the memories.
Thanks for your incredible support and love towards our music from long ago 💐💞 we made it to the top because of you our lovely fans and I hope you have enjoyed every bit of it. May God bless you 🌹🌹.
Great!! Paul Youngs Voice and the bass of pino palladino! It`s a song without time!!
One of the greatest songs ever cover or not, this is the elite of the 80s, a masterpiece
Can't believe I still listen to this song on new years eve, 2019
Same 😀happy new year to you 😀
just love Paul......did backup vocals with him...very underrated singer....a very,very special man miss you call soon ANNIELEE
A great singer and a great song bring on the 80s
Agree ,most underrated singer of the 80s ,cracking voice
You met Pino Palladio.
I lived this life through out Australia for 6 yrs broken many hearts, in the process I fathered 2 kids, this song best described my life back then, now I'm back home in New Zealand,, now I look back 🔙 I asked God to forgive me for my weakness.
I'm so happy you asked God🙏
I have not enough words to explain how I love your way to sing this song. I can't help singing with you, each time I heard it. 💗💗💗
I used to be a kid of the 80`s. This is my all time favourite. Thank you Paul! 👍
From first hearing this song on the radio, I knew it would go straight to Number One in the charts. I bought the record and then bought Paul's CD and I still play it to this day. This song never dates, always sounds great.
Another walk on the Memory Lane..
Miss the 80's...
Paul Young is the real deal.
He is a real deal Mshengu ❤
@@olwethutshabalala7604 ❤️❤️❤️
Truly essential 80s. Paul Young and No Parlez 24/7 in the record player
should have 1 billion views
Whoever is here in 2024 has good taste in music
Only degenerates don’t know this song
as do you my bro as do you.... 2 may 2024
Lol❤
One of my all time faves boys
I'm here hello peeps from uk 😅
Just hung a hat on a hook in my bedroom cupboard - my first ever home. This song came to mind. Paul sings it so beautifully - and he's still gigging! Thank you.
Aged 24 my self , however …. The 80s just hits differently to now a days music … just can’t beat the 80s. such Catchy music , makes me have the chills , goosebumps , gets my mind thinking , mixed emotions , just brilliant !!! ❤️🙏
Such a wonderful voice, perfectly teamed up with a song that shows it off so well. One of the best singer and song combinations of the 1980s or any era.
This song gives me goosebumps each time I hear it. Such a strong track even now 2018

Without a doubt Paul made some absolutely beautiful songs but this one is definitely at the very top and making number 1 in the summer of 1983 a great powerful love song with a strong message of love an romance great lyrics too Paul 😌💙🫶
His first solo hit and of course number one here in Britain in 1983-I remember it well too?! Great track of course and still is too. Thank you too!
Thank you for the highlight there too!
That bass tone... wow, Pino must have picked the real cream of the batch with that bass.
Danthehorse musicman all the way
+Danthehorse THE BASS sound of BRITISH POP music especially during the 80'S a golden era for music !!
He bought that musicman in nyc at Sam ash. He said it was the special one
Most definitely I've only come across 3 basses like that in 25 years of playing. With mass produced guitars you find a rare special one every once in a while. You instantly know it too.
Pino was in Jools Holland's band before joining the Royal Family.
I'm a 90's baby but I was brought up around this music and listening to this just shows me how much I miss those times and this type of music.
OldBatVodka I was born in 1983, the same year this record was released and I love listening to music from the 50's to today
I just about wept when I found an old cassette with this on it !! [yes boys and girls CASSSETTTES!!!] such an emblem of my youth ENJOY THE HOLIDAYS!
70’s child but grew up through the 80’s and boy do I miss music from those eras. Damn if it wasn’t the best music you’ve heard during those times...... Great Memories!
i was born 93 and raised on bands like pink floyd and many other 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's bands.
Wow! This guy used to make my day in the 90’ when I started listening to it as a young boy. I forgot the name of the guy at some point just stumbled on it at classic fm 99.3 here in Lagos, Nigeria and I was made to remember his beautiful name again which is Paul Young. I love the song 🎶 like nothing else. 😢😢❤❤
Another wonderful song music Paul Young always loved the song where ever l lay my hat thank you sharing it
All time classic , good music never gets old, if it's good it's good
His debut album that had this particular song on was a true 80s classic. The album was called "No parlez" in case anybody is wondering
Ohh, wow! What a beautiful song and I really miss those times 80’s, 90’s If anyone agrees with me on here, give a like. And Is any one else still able to make a song like this? Hmm! I don’t think so. I wished still someone could do it. 🏴🙏🏽🙏🏽🇵🇹🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👏
80s was the best decade for music ever
Unforgettable ❤ Thanks Paul Young for great music from Zimbabwe ❤
i come here from time to time...it takes me back.Thank you mister paul.Hope you are good wherever you are.
A golden classic
This is a song that has stuck in my head for almost 40 years but amazing how all the elements came together to create a bit of magic. Picking an original b side, slowing it downl adding the bass guitar and keyboard leading to a song for all time (at least in my opinion). As things move on with technology i can't help but feel a lot of the craftmanship in music and eleswhere is being lost at its expense.
Playing now for all of youz 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I played this at my Dad's funeral. Seem morbid. But totally wasn't. This song means the world to me.
Songs have different meaning for different people, it's what it means to you that matters. Sorry for your loss and God bless you for your future
It’s a great song with Paul Young’s distinct vocals.
Sorry for your loss of your father, teacher and friend.
This is a perfect song to play at a funeral... may your dad be resting in the highest of the heavens until you meet up again..God bless 💜
Such a great song sorry about your dad
♥️
Very rarely do I say a song sounds better live but this is one them. Was amazing hearing it live few years ago
My beautiful sisster loved this song we played it at her funeral 33 yes ago to day and my God I play this everyday and Paul is so georjuse looking not aged a bit xx he made my sister happy with this song thank u Paul xxx
Great voice in great times, Mr. Paul Young
Takes me back to the long hot summer of 1983 in the UK, listening to this classic on the radio, those joyous
carefree days, teenage memories that I will treasure forever.
So do I. Good luck 👍🍀
Omg! Paul Young was my pin up guy when younger. He was seriously 🔥 stuff. This song still gives me goosebumps even today. He’s sings this to perfection ❤️80’s nostalgia at its best 🎶🎶
I sure do miss the 70s, 80s and 90s. The music🎶 today is not even the same. Sometimes I wish I could find a time machine and go back in time. Life was much easier and everyone enjoyed life! Is this your favorite song?
@@derekkess267 come back and stay is my fav Paul Young song but this is up there
Paul is a lovely guy
Can't tell you how much of my heart is in your music.....Crazy! Age 43 now .......had your album on tape age 13.....still got it on tape and my walkman.....saw you at Torquay last year......i couldn't even talk!! 😂❤
My favourite song by Paul. No parlez has been brought so many times. Saw him at Northampton theatre two years ago. 😀😀
Beautiful, a real tearjerker.
ONE OF THE BEST SONGS OF THE 80'S. OCTOBER 2020!
The hat is a metaphor. The laying down of a hat represents settling down. He has no intention of doing so; "he's the type of boy who is ALWAYS on the road" - he's a wanderer with no fixed address & "he likes it that way" - according to the song.
GREAT SONG & EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE. Thanks PY.
Brilliant Brilliant song. Man Paul you did a FANTASTIC vocal on this classic track. Just awesomeness.👍
As a bass player I drool over Pino’s bass work on this track. As a singer I gush over Paul’s vocal delivery. Everything in this song comes together remarkably to create an unforgettable piece of art born of a relatively forgettable Marvin Gaye cut from the late 60’s.
Absolutely
Totally agree
I like how he made it more melancholy. Seems more fitting. Gorgeous voice. 💜
Very beautiful vocal song❤
To call Marvin Gaye's version - as the songwriter - unforgettable is insulting. The horns and drumming on the original are superb, and Marvin's louche, casual, throw away interpretation is more suited to the actual sentiment of the song. Paul Young is brilliant but he sounds like he cares about being a vagabond - why? - it's dissonant with the lyrics. They are two different songs.
As much as I like the Marvin Gaye version, the production on this one is so amazing. They took a twenty year old song and made it sound like an eighties power ballad. If you didn't know the song existed before, you'd never know it was a Motown rerecording.
I only just now listened to the original. I knew it was a Marvin Gaye song but had always assumed it to have been part of his more independent, reflective and mature 70s output, not something from the 60s Motown heyday. In that sense, I feel that this version not only updated the song for the 80s, but takes Gaye's musical development into account too.
I'm just finding out tonight that this is a remake. Young did a terrific job.
This is one of the rare cover versions that is actually better than the original.
I'm perfect
***** So sorry but "I think we're alone now" was Tommy James and the Shondells, who also did "Mony, Mony" and "Crimson and Clover"
For some reason... this song popped into my head and i was looking for it for over an hour.
Such a great song!
nice song
"guy singing about hats"
Listen to a cover of this song from a Jamaican singer .. Sanchez - where ever I lay my hat .
dan west is she on the 150 lol
Mumbo Jumbo De Runter same!!!
What A fking tune. Close my eyes just takes me back to days of fking much happiness.🙁
agreed. top of the pops lol
terance trent me too
True that bro..True that.

terance trent Did you name yourself after Mr. D’Arby? Love him too.
The Melodic vocals of this awesome singer. I so miss being a teenager in the 80's and all these magical songs being played on the radio or cassette and vinyl records. Paul Young thank you for your contribution as one of my all time favorites :-)
Phenomenal song and era for music.. God I miss the 1980s ♥️
God bless the 80's
the Bass player is named Pino Palladino and is such a magician with that instrument [THAT IS WHAT I MEANT TO SPELL ] and i agree this song with PAUL YOUNG'S vocal's is so beautiful and certainly conjures up images of myself as a struggling musician in the UK during my youth Cheers!
A genuine pop classic. Warm and sincere. Loved it then, love it now.
Sure does bring me to 1986! Had 2 wonderful sons with him but showed him the way out! Many thanks for living memories. 😊
I was 12 yrs old when I heard and saw the video of this song. I will always remember the impact it had on me! I had the biggest crush on Paul young
Just great to see Paul once more with this song. Just love it & him. xx

Thank you Paul young for such a amazing song
Wenn ich darüber nachdenke, was alles zu dieser Zeit, als dieses schöne Lied herauskam, um einen drumherum passierte und die vielen Wechselbäder der Eindrücke, Gefühle und Emotionen sich ergossen, da kann man nur sagen:
Das war eine sehr schöne Zeit!
Great song..great bass by Dino Paladino mixed with Paul Yong beautiful voice..best song ever..!
So intense and full of feelings long gone, but never forgotten.
Transports me right back to being 7 years old getting ready for school. Man, I miss the 80s so much it hurts.
Paul Young never ceases to amaze!!!
Fab song christine
My favourite of Pauls!
Thank you
Beautiful song❤
he make's this all his own, great voice and brilliant song!
Wonderful to hear this great song again
More than 25 years that I don't listen to this song. Ohhhh my gash.... that brings back memories. Broken hearts, great emotions, crocodile tears and all that stuff. And I am still in love with it.
This is one of my faveriout Paul Young songs, its unforgettable, its soulful tones of Paul's voice which has a unique sound to it, I like it because it tells a sad story and is a very soulful sounding track, I think Paul's singing voice is amazing, the unique quality of it and the beautiful tones, ever changing scales he show cases his voice so well with this song, Paul has the singing voice of an Iconic legend, one you carnt forget. The 80s was a special era of music I was a teenager then, I am now 54, but I still listen to some great singers from the 80s who are quality artists that I cherish, as well as some new R & B singers, I love. Thank you to Paul for all those wonderful music tracks he released, what a pleasure it was to just listen to and sing along with his music, back then, and now, today still a pleasure, every time I hear it.
