My husband suffered a stroke 15 years ago, was diagnosed with stage 4 kidney cancer 4 years ago. The part of the song, “Whenever you need someone/to lay your heart and head upon” particularly resonates with me as he’s been such a rock and inspiration in my life. We’ll have been married 9 years next month. I love you Steve.
You can both be with each other forever, nothing to buy, nothing to give, nothing to do, not be good enough just simply believe that Christ died, was buried then rose from the dead 3 days later JUST for those who SIMPLY believe and accept that free gift NO CONDITIONS, just believe it :)
No flash, no dancers, no autotune..just pure raw emotion and incredible vocals and haunting music...this is what real music use to be line before the soulless machine that churns out the noise of today...Glad I was born in the 80's and still.listening to this in 2022
She had great taste my friend.from england 51 in 88 this tune blew me away, to this day its one of my top 5 songs.whe at work all i have is 80s. My children love the 80s due to me.i met my wife at 27 in 88 and she lovedthis tune...sorry for your loss, im sure when this song is played shes watching over you🙏🙏
Beautiful song. However it always gives me the memory of my dad sitting on the coach crying because my mom had just abandoned us. My dad took on taking care of twins by himself. Thank you dad. 💜
Happened to me in 1986. My wife left me with 3 boys. I did well. They are now 46, 42 and 40. Have great grandkids. Things are met to be. Your dad was a great person
Hell yer, I'm 50s now and we grew up real men. Play fights. Falling out of trees, and blooded knees, and my dad would say.....just a flesh wound. You'll live.. If I could go back in time it would be to my childhood, and with what I know now, I d never of let my true love ever go,and told her that every day. I cant imagine growing up today, it must be hell on earth, always in the cool gear ect, where as we grew up in our families hand me down clothes, i did say no way to underwear though and not my sisters clothes either lol. 😂
In 1987 I met a girl and for a variety of reasons,on both our parts , we couldn't be together.14 yrs later we reconnect and Find out that whenever this song came on both of us dreamed of each other.We have a beautiful daughter and are living our dream life .We both still get goosebumps when we hear it.
Everyone has that "One". The one that they didn't tell how they felt, the one that they let go, the one that should have been. This is the Anthem for all those that never were.... Beautiful song, makes me cry every time I listen to it because I know she is still out there and always will be.
Oh wow. You nailed with that! I was 18. I didn't tell him how much I loved him. Big mistake! As he was about to walk out of my life forever, I called out to him and asked if we could still be friends. I couldn't bear the thought of never knowing what happened to him. I cried for him for 10 years. He would actually call me every so often. We stayed in touch. I always loved him. I never wanted to be his friend. I'm 64 now. After being friends on Facebook for 10 years with no contact (after the initial, Hi! You look great. How have you been?) I started going nuts and messaged him. I needed closure badly. We had a long talk, and we shared a lot of things we hadn't shared when we were young. It left me with a lot to think about. He was engaged at the time and he did get married. I told him I needed time to think about what he had told me. And believe me, I thought long and hard, for over a year. So, after 46 years I realized the only way I could move on was to let him go, completely. So, without warning, I unfriended him. I doubt he'll be too upset. Was there a little bit of revenge in there. Yes, but he moved on a long long time ago. Older and wiser but love still hurts. And I do take responsibility for the mistakes I made in our relationship.
Same here u qas 15 an lived him so much but uts complicated an I should have never let him go an ill never 4get him just what happens in life an I messed it up an I broke up an it was awful an certain sings bring it all nmback but this song brings back memories of a man I really messed up wit an was only 27 now im 60 an still regret both those mistakes always will I guess cant go back an fix it there both passed away now an hope to see em both in heaven, I hope all my ftmrienda r there an my mom an dad an sister an brothers that have passed away too..I miss them all so much 😢
Every. Single. Time. Stephanie, I choke back the tears and memories flood my head with pictures I never took. I think of my high school girlfriend, Jill... and wonder what she's doing 25 years later. Tears... beautifully painful.
I've seen Cheap trick twice and get to see them again next weekend. LOVE this group. They are my husband's favorite group, and The Flame is our song. Cannot wait to see them again! Robin Zander's voice is amazing.
I remember dancing with a girl at the prom to this song 34 years ago. She's sitting in the chair next to me watching TV. My biggest wish in life is that our son finds the same thing.
Laying here next to my wife of 8 years who I have been in love with since I was 15, and I just turned 48. Took awhile to catch her, but she was worth the chase. Never let that flame die, y’all.
When I've lost someone close to me, w heat I'll do is wait for the pain to ease a bit, and then I'll visit where they are. And then when the weather allows it, I'll take a trip to wherever I can get a good view of the night sky. And while I'm contemplating the vastness of the cosmos, I remember what many have said - that our spirits take a place amongst the stars. And at some point, I'll feel a cool breeze that I'm convinced is the spirit of the departed saying that I have not left you and never will. And then we will meet again on that distant shore in a better place. Hopefully you can find solace in this. Peace.
This song came out the year my stepfather died of bone cancer.That was 30 some years ago,and everytime I hear this song I am reminded that he will always be with me wherever I go. The song strikes a cord in the deepest part of those memories he gave to me,even the memories of his suffering and untimely death. I still think of him and cry over his death till this day. Thanks dad for taking care of me.
Nice words. I’m a stepdad too and love my step children like they’re my own. They all call me Dad and believe I’m better to them than their biological father.
I lost my beautiful wife after 32 years together 3 years ago. When he sang “you were the first, you’ll be the last” it really hit hard. I miss you Deb.
@@vaughangregory-hunt4094 same here. He was the hero I never had. I am only 58, who will be the hero now? Maybe he taught me all I needed to know except for one thing, how to live without him.
Ms Diane,so sorry to hear of ur loss I lost my own at 16 n my sister just lost hers within the last hour The Flame was third song as well..I wish u peace n Gods mercy n grace, bless u honey Donna
@@dianebaum91 this comment hit home. I lost my husband in 2004. We met when I was 15 and he was 16. We grew up together. Always together. He was 29 and I was 28 when he past away. I always thought life put us together so we and teach each other something. But it’s true.. the one thing we dnt learn is how to live without one another.
Just saw Cheap Trick in Cincinnati last night and this song was one of the big highlights. Such a beautiful tune. Cheap Trick may be one of the most underrated rock bands in US history. So damn good.
They just don't make great music like this anymore ! These 80 power ballad songs bring back so many awesome memories. I sometimes shed a tear of joy from the good memories these songs give me .
This song reminds me of my late Son,born in the 80's,it was a unexpected death.But he is my everything, he loved music.He has left a beautiful family.2 young children.He would text me songs all the time this is 1 he would of,great song!
Was my former boyfriend’s favourite slow song for us to dance to in 1988❤. Memories of puppy love, cruising around in his big Buick with the tunes blaring, good night kisses that were sweet & innocent. I think about you now & then, Stephan. Thank you for the love letters, slow dancing, making me laugh, and making me feel loved for the first time at the tender age of 20.
I feel this.. I still fight w/ my family everytime I see them.. I’m broken because of them but nothing w/ out them.. take care and May God bless you like he has done for me ;]
Nicky, you have that right! I love Cheap Trick, The Flame and just about anything 80's! What an eclectic variety of music produced in a 10 yr. span! I don't think we'll ever see it again! The artist's and music were just so good! And the personalities and charisma! Thank God for CD's and the internet!
I just Love love love this song ❤️❣️❤️ IT was Our wedding song on August 19th 1989 in Endwell NY ❤😊🎉❤. IT makes my heart SOO VERY HAPPY every time I hear it 💗 especially now 😢 cuz my husband Martin passed away 😇 in 2010 . God Bless You honey ❤❤❤❤ and God Bless Everyone 😇 Nancy from Las Vegas and Upstate NY and Boynton Beach ⛱️ FL ❣️❤️❣️
Cheap Trick - The Flame,One of the Greatest Love Songs of All Time."The Flame" is a ballad written by British songwriters Bob Mitchell and Nick Graham. The song was first offered to English singer Elkie Brooks, who turned it down, and was then released by Cheap Trick, for which it was a hit single in 1988.
I saw them in August of 1980 at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas tx. Found out i was pregnant with my baby girl that day. She was in a fatal car accident July 29th 1999. We use to ride around and play this a sing it among others. I play this song every day. Peace
Probably said in the comments on here already but, Robin Zander is one of the best vocalists from that era. Very underrated as well. Still sounds amazing live as well.
Watch The CT episode of Live at Darryl's House. Zander hasn't lost a thing. Great tracks with an amazing house band. "No Direction" is mind blowingly pulled off to perfection.
I love Robin Zanders voice. This song has been one of my favorites ever since it came out. It just pops up in my brain and then I gotta watch the video again because I gotta see Robin singing it. ❤
my Flame was and is Diane Marie Bartmann...long ago deceased (32 years ago now)...and I CAN'T believe she is gone...but the LOVE goes on forever! we were both from Rockford, Illinois, we graduated together from East High, class of 1970... Cheap Trick are hometown boys...Sleep gently my love...Jag Alskar Dig (she was of Swedish extraction, and taught me how to say this) i still hear her voice...Somewhere in Time
Beautiful song. Me and my husband were blessed to see Cheap Trick, Journey, Bryan Adams, Foreigner and Heart at a two day concert events. It was awesome. The music from the 80’s is the best. ❤️❤️❤️
A very Happy 71st Birthday Robin Wayne Zander. Born in Beloit, Wisconsin January 23, 1953. Robin joined Cheap Trick 50 years ago. 1974.. R & R Hall of Fame induction proves they are a great rock and roll band. Many, many more Robin Wayne..
The Flame by Cheap Trick was my husband and myself song. He rarely danced but this song was played he would dance slow to it. We definitely loved this song. Now that he has passed away I still listen to it. It brings so much joy and loved mermories
I turned 18 in 1980. I couldn't have asked to have been born at a better time! The 80's was one hell of a ride! Great music, loose women and President Reagan! Life was great! I honestly don't know how I managed to survive it! It's long gone but I have my memories and we'll always have the music!
In 1980, I turned 22...4 years older than you and my fiancee and i had broken up and i thought life was over. I still have the wedding rings he gave me in 1978. He turned out to be a drug addict on heroin...so he messed up the life of another girl and their kids. Glad it wasnt me....he just passed of a drug overdose...and we still loved each other. Love this song..
Hands down my very favorite Cheap Trick song. Saw you play it live on NAS Corpus Christi many years ago and was awesome! Thank you for remaining true to your music. I grew up in southern WI very near Rockford. I REALLY wanted to come to one of your concerts when I was in high school. My mother wouldn't let me go because you were playing with Supertramp and when I asked she got mad. "You are NOT going to see a cheap trick or a super tramp!" Never thought about the names before she said that. Every time we go back home to WI there is always a Cheap Trick song playing on the radio and it just makes my heart happy. Thank you for so many years of great music.
Wish I could go back and grow up in the 80s as a teen all over again. Met the love of my wife that I've been with 40 years. All the great concerts and music, simpler world. Just to do it again and discover songs like this all over again would be awesome
I'm 33 and refuse to listen to anything after 1989 unless it's something a classic band has put out! Mötley Crüe have been my heroes since I was 3 but I also love cheap trick
R.E.M. Losing My Religion was the song of the year in 91. Great song. Not much came after that to me. I was 14 in 1977 and the list of great albums that came out that year is long. The year before was a little album titled Hotel California. What a great decade to have been a kid. In 89 I was just getting out of the Navy.
This came out in June '88 when my newborn son's dad walked out on me. Now 33 years later my son died. This song literally breaks my heart now, the words hit different 😭💔 gregg33mom
My high school sweetheart who was my first and I still talk to each other to this day. 50 Years later and both of us are single. We had our 1st date in 48 years in 2022. It was GREAT. Both of us have been single for over 25 years. I still love her, but we live 1850 miles apart. Wish I knew what to do!!!
Kelly, be very careful what you wish for, Love and Pain are two sides of the same coin. the GREATER the LOVE, the deeper the Pain cuts when something happens...
This song came out shortly after my Mom died in 1988. For me it is her song now. Our mothers are always our first girl. You'll always be the one. You were the first you'll be the last. I still can't believe you're gone.
Legend had it Cheap Trick was offered this or "Look Away," which went to Chicago. They had to record one of them. Look Away was the bigger hit, but this was better song and Cheap Trick chose wisely.
An old boyfriend told me this was his song to me and to think of him when I heard it. At the time I had a newborn baby with a guy who had cheated on me after the baby was born and I wanted my child to have his father so even though I cared for the other guy very much, I chose to stay with the babies father. Ive thought about him alot over the years, but lost touch with him. I recently found out that he had passed away at only 50 yrs old. It completely broke my heart to know he is gone. Hearing this song again after all these years has a different meaning for me, more so now knowing he is gone.😭💔😥 Rest easy Chris McCabe, you were and always will be in my heart.
Some people who live in our memory are more valuable than anything thing the present day has on auction. There are beautiful women and eccentric characters I will never forget. And then there is garbage I forget before I even know it’s name
One of the best songs ever! ❤ I listen to it all the time! When me and hubby are going through rough times married since 1980 I have to listen to this song to cry to and cheer me up and get myself together! ❤❤❤❤😢😢😢😅😅😅😅😊
when you hear a song like this, you realize that they pour their heart and soul into it. the 80s was such an incredible time for music. like many of you, I also share the notion that there was something special about that time and music that sadly cannot be replicated today. too bad for this generation; it was such an incredible time!
Damn. The look he gives the camera at 2:31 makes my knees go weak. What a vocal range this man has - soft and smoky, to crystal and sweet, to raspy screams, just wow. As a whole, Cheap Trick ticks every single box for Best Rock Band ever. And my vote also goes to Best Lead Vocalist, in case that wasn't clear...
My first innocent true love on-and-off relationship from the beginning of third grade until the end of sixth grade (sixth graders went to junior high back then in my district; I’m 57 now) looked like this lead singer but with shorter feathered golden-blond hair and blue eyes. Every time I see this singer when he was younger like this, I always remember Andy. But he broke my heart over a lie told about me to him and ended our relationship at the last school dance that year. Shortly thereafter, I moved hundreds of miles away. I never saw him again. Life went on, and I ended up marrying a man, the love of my life, completely different from Andy years and years later and have been married to him for coming on 40 years now. Had Andy not broken my heart and I not have moved away, I never would have wound up with the right guy for me who has never believed a lie about me. Funny how things work out like that...by God’s Hand alone! But I still remember the sweet moments of yesteryear before the heartbreak when I watch this band play in their earlier days. ☺️
This song touches my soul. The love of my life died years ago, and this song captures the essence of our marriage. I'm forever grateful to Cheap Trick for this.
@@1stand2ndtimearound67 Just FYI: The Flame was written by two British song writers. A female singer was offered this song but turned it down. Lucky for Cheap Trick and the rest of us that she did.
I can’t imagine any other person singing this song. Steve Perry is my favorite singer. I served in the Air Force and heard his voice in a lot of countries where I was stationed. When walking down the streets of Songton City, you could here his voice/music on every corner. Rock on Mr. Perry and God Bless❤. Please come to South Carolina if you tour again.😊
Omg, I absolutely love this song!! I keep playing it over and over. It goes straight to your soul!!! These were the good Ole days!!! It won't ever be like that again and I'm so glad I grew up during these times!!! Great memories!!!
The 80s were truly special, and it's intriguing to consider that their uniqueness might be amplified by the fact that those times are gone - almost as if their special quality is eternal precisely because they are no more.
Yo he sido suertudo, pero sobre todo bendecido, tengo 58 años me tocó escuchar la Mejor Música de Todos los Tiempos: 60, 70, 80, 90, y la seguiré escuchando mientras Dios me lo Permita, El Arte, Ingenio, Sentimiento, interpretación y Sensibilidad con la que fueron hechas todas estas canciones es genial, soy rockero de corazón y toda esta música me transporta a los años vivídos con una Nostalgia Increíble, como anteriormente alguien puso, si pudiera regresar en el tiempo, con gusto lo haría!!! En estos tiempos difíciles que estamos viviendo es un remanso de paz y alegría escuchar esta maravillosa música para desestresarse y transportarte a una burbuja donde te sientes, seguro, en paz y alegre por lo vivido!!! Bendiciones para Todos🙏🏽❤️🍀
I'm 41 and my mom introduced me to cheap trick in the 80's. This has always been one of my favorite songs ever. I won tickets to see them in 93 from the local radio station. 101.5kgb. Thanks mom 😘
The Flame Cheap Trick Another night slowly closes in And I feel so lonely Touching heat freezing on my skin I pretend you still hold me I'm going crazy, I'm losing sleep I'm in too far, I'm in way too deep over you I can't believe you're gone You were the first, you'll be the last Wherever you go, I'll be with you Whatever you want, I'll give it to you Whenever you need someone To lay your heart and head upon Remember, after the fire, after all the rain I will be the flame I will be the flame Watching shadows move across the wall I feel so frightened I wanna run to you, I wanna call But I've been hit by lightning Just can't stand up for fallin' apart Can't see through this veil across my heart, over you You'll always be the one You were the first, you'll be the last Wherever you go, I'll be with you Whatever you want, I'll give it to you Whenever you need someone To lay your heart and head upon Remember, after the fire, after all the rain I will be the flame I will be the flame I'm going crazy, I'm losing sleep I'm in too far, I'm in way too deep over you You'll always be the one You were the first, you'll be the last Wherever you go, I'll be with you Whatever you want, I'll give it to you Whenever you need someone To lay your heart and head upon Remember, after the fire, after all the rain I will be the flame I will be the flame Whatever you want, I'll give it to you Wherever you go, I'll be with you And whatever you want, I'll give it to you
This used to play at my work when I was 15. Never thought much of it back then, but after finding it again many years later, I realise it's a great song.
Mr.Wade I am truly sorry for ur pain.I lost my brother in law recently that was his n my sisters song.I do feel ur pain n pray God gives u grace n peace..Take care of u..Michelle
I lost my kids' father and my partner of 7 years to brain cancer last March. This song hits extra hard now. "I can't believe you're gone..." "You'll always be the one..."
The Music of the 80's & 90's was the best, in terms of writings, delivery, feelings, & instrumental presentations. Today's Millennials have absolutely no clue about things in general. Those were times where artist; regardless of musical taste, had to play their instruments & perform @ the same time. I've built a "Time Ship" & I'm going back to the 80's on a one way trip! There's plenty of room, anyone wanna come along?
If you are just lovesick, or you are without the one you love and in real pain…this song hits the spot. It is one of the most powerful and passionate love songs out there. I’m in that situation now.
So underrated. I consider him to be one of the 10 best rock vocalists ever. If I had a mic, I’d drop it right now! If you’re not familiar with the Babys, get familiar, you’ll be glad. John Waite is amazing!
I was born in 1960 and I have to honestly say in my opinion that the music from the '50's, 60's, 70's, and 80's had a huge impact on my upbringing. Just for the fact it had such great talent. I honestly like a big diverse amount of talent from the 4 era's except for a choice few groups. I will leave it at that but I truly like Cheap Trick for the fact Robin has an amazing voice.
I was born in the 70’s and I’d prefer listening to the music of 50’s up to the 90’s ,and for me were far too good to listen to,and how lucky I was to grow up into these kind of music.🥰🥰🥰❤️🇵🇭🇦🇺
My mother Karen Dawn Eagle- Ball loved Robin Zander. So this song reminds me of her. This song though, makes me wish there was a love ( a human connection) ❤️ like this. Though I love ❤️ deeply and would be there for anyone in need. The love 💗 that this song speaks of is rare and requires both people to be willing. Damn what a beautiful love ❤️ song 😢 😂 though
It’s funny, I grew up in the 80’s-90’s. This ballad definitely sticks with me. A time when music was about relationships and true love, cut jeans, long hair, fast cars. Society definitely set the stage back then lol. It was a perfect time to grow up with love ballads in the air. So thankful I experienced, love, break-ups, and music as my personal Compass as young lad. Forever in my soul and memories. Cheers.
I agree Bryan. It was a lot simpler in every way. And it was more fun in every way. Technology is turning the human race into a bunch of freaks....... I wish I was wrong about that.
My husband suffered a stroke 15 years ago, was diagnosed with stage 4 kidney cancer 4 years ago. The part of the song, “Whenever you need someone/to lay your heart and head upon” particularly resonates with me as he’s been such a rock and inspiration in my life. We’ll have been married 9 years next month. I love you Steve.
You can both be with each other forever, nothing to buy, nothing to give, nothing to do, not be good enough just simply believe that Christ died, was buried then rose from the dead 3 days later JUST for those who SIMPLY believe and accept that free gift NO CONDITIONS, just believe it :)
God bless you and your husband with many more years of happiness!!😍
I wish your husband improved health and they you have many more years together..may his flame burn strong
May Allah grants your husband health and long live with you.
God bless 🙌 🙏 you guys!!!
There are certain 80’s songs that give me an overwhelmingly painful and bittersweet sense of nostalgia. This is definitely one of them.
Me too.
I remember this played at the base club every night 1988.
I just listened to this and yes, brings back alot of bittersweet memories. Brought tears on this time. So wish I could go back to those times.
Yeah, it cuts deep with this one.

Just saw them a few nights ago at a local casino. They still rocked hard.
true
Born in the 50’s and still listening. Music of our past creates a timeline for us. Every important moment in life is assigned a song.
We were the greatest generation ever
Ain’t that the truth
I never knew how lucky i was to live all these 80s music.. its the best and never replaced
My mom always played this song while I was growing up. She passed away last year out of no where. I cry every time I hear it. I miss you momma.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Please stay strong for her 🙏🏻. And be have no doubt she’s watching over you.
❤️ 🙏
I'm so sorry for your loss, hugs to you
She had great taste my friend.from england 51 in 88 this tune blew me away, to this day its one of my top 5 songs.whe at work all i have is 80s. My children love the 80s due to me.i met my wife at 27 in 88 and she lovedthis tune...sorry for your loss, im sure when this song is played shes watching over you🙏🙏
I'm so sorry for your loss
Beautiful song. However it always gives me the memory of my dad sitting on the coach crying because my mom had just abandoned us. My dad took on taking care of twins by himself. Thank you dad. 💜
What a touching memory I don't know your dad but the world is a better place because of people like him a true man God bless all of you🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hope you and your family are healing. Peace. ♥
Happened to me in 1986. My wife left me with 3 boys. I did well. They are now 46, 42 and 40. Have great grandkids. Things are met to be. Your dad was a great person
That was cruel of your mother to do that. But I'm glad your father was strong enough to get through it and loved you.
@@steady53 Yes, things are meant to be. It was good that you could see that, even though what your wife did was cruel.
Our Era is about gone, but the music lives on🙏🏻... bless you all!!!
I'm 63 and still listening and singing this song. Love it 🥰👍
I'm 56 now and love this song so much I listen to it most days.
Same here...just turned 63 and I am really remembering all of these old fantastic songs...What a blessing it was for us to have lived in that time...
Anyone else is going through their favorite jams thinking about life back in the days? Please tell me I'm not the only one?✌🏼️
@FunkMasterFish No you're not the only one!
thats why were here
Your not alone
Listening to classic songs from the 80s from Brisbane Australia at 4am.
I'm with ya....x
The outrageous 80's. Miss them everyday
Me too
Listening in 2024 and thinking about old friends, lost loved ones and simpler times. Who’s with me?
Most of mine are dead.
❤
So true
Hell yer, I'm 50s now and we grew up real men. Play fights. Falling out of trees, and blooded knees, and my dad would say.....just a flesh wound. You'll live..
If I could go back in time it would be to my childhood, and with what I know now, I d never of let my true love ever go,and told her that every day.
I cant imagine growing up today, it must be hell on earth, always in the cool gear ect, where as we grew up in our families hand me down clothes, i did say no way to underwear though and not my sisters clothes either lol. 😂
I'm with u

Absolutely 💯 💯 some of best love song: mid 80s to mid 90s..to be with you, love of a lifetime and many more ❤

In 1987 I met a girl and for a variety of reasons,on both our parts , we couldn't be together.14 yrs later we reconnect and Find out that whenever this song came on both of us dreamed of each other.We have a beautiful daughter and are living our dream life .We both still get goosebumps when we hear it.
I can relate. My husband and I dated at 17, broke up, and finally got back together and got married 16 years later. We have 3 boys now.

I hope the people from Kuwait appreciate your service.

Everyone has that "One". The one that they didn't tell how they felt, the one that they let go, the one that should have been. This is the Anthem for all those that never were.... Beautiful song, makes me cry every time I listen to it because I know she is still out there and always will be.
Oh wow. You nailed with that! I was 18. I didn't tell him how much I loved him. Big mistake! As he was about to walk out of my life forever, I called out to him and asked if we could still be friends. I couldn't bear the thought of never knowing what happened to him. I cried for him for 10 years. He would actually call me every so often. We stayed in touch. I always loved him. I never wanted to be his friend. I'm 64 now. After being friends on Facebook for 10 years with no contact (after the initial, Hi! You look great. How have you been?) I started going nuts and messaged him. I needed closure badly. We had a long talk, and we shared a lot of things we hadn't shared when we were young. It left me with a lot to think about. He was engaged at the time and he did get married. I told him I needed time to think about what he had told me. And believe me, I thought long and hard, for over a year. So, after 46 years I realized the only way I could move on was to let him go, completely. So, without warning, I unfriended him. I doubt he'll be too upset. Was there a little bit of revenge in there. Yes, but he moved on a long long time ago. Older and wiser but love still hurts. And I do take responsibility for the mistakes I made in our relationship.
spot on Mark. Or you told them how you felt and they didn't feel the same way when you knew you were perfect for each other.
Yep me too. I had one about 15 years ago.
You read my mind
Same here u qas 15 an lived him so much but uts complicated an I should have never let him go an ill never 4get him just what happens in life an I messed it up an I broke up an it was awful an certain sings bring it all nmback but this song brings back memories of a man I really messed up wit an was only 27 now im 60 an still regret both those mistakes always will I guess cant go back an fix it there both passed away now an hope to see em both in heaven, I hope all my ftmrienda r there an my mom an dad an sister an brothers that have passed away too..I miss them all so much 😢
Anyone else ball their eyes out to this? it's just so evocative. I miss the eighties so much.
80s was the best time for music for me as well
Now my eyes just watered up.
Yes I do the same 😭😭😭
they say never look back but i can't help but think of the 80's what a magical time we can never have back
Every. Single. Time. Stephanie, I choke back the tears and memories flood my head with pictures I never took. I think of my high school girlfriend, Jill... and wonder what she's doing 25 years later. Tears... beautifully painful.
I've seen Cheap trick twice and get to see them again next weekend. LOVE this group. They are my husband's favorite group, and The Flame is our song. Cannot wait to see them again! Robin Zander's voice is amazing.
🤘🏻🤘🏻🎸 😊
A song that breaks your heart, transcends time, and heals your pain. Incredible voice and music.
Pure heartbreaker.
Hermoso tema
I remember dancing with a girl at the prom to this song 34 years ago. She's sitting in the chair next to me watching TV. My biggest wish in life is that our son finds the same thing.
He will, love comes for you, you don't go looking for it.
@@mattstewart1637 How right you are
How sweet. ❤️
Badass story and great outlook for your kid man. Similar story myself.
That’s amazing…I’m 42 years old and still haven’t found that kind of love yet. I hang onto the hope and thought of…..one day.
Nothing like growing up in the 80’s. We had the best music! This was one of my absolute favs and I still love it!
Absloutely brings back memories of the gliry days
Greatest decade of music that will ever be hands down.
60s/70s
This type of music could’ve continued if these talentless rappers never made music
Memories of great times.... I played this over and over so many times....still love it.
Laying here next to my wife of 8 years who I have been in love with since I was 15, and I just turned 48. Took awhile to catch her, but she was worth the chase. Never let that flame die, y’all.
yeah after shes old beat she takes you , only after all other prospects dried up.
Nice story ❤❤❤
Wish I could go back to the 80's 😢
Me too
Me too
Keep wishing. But we can't 😂😂😂. Just kidding your right 🎉😂❤
Remember today's a new day. Forward.
I think most of us would like to go back to the 80's.
Greatest decade ever. No cell phones, people had to talk face to face, knew how to write, and most of all; it was real music with heart.
A much better day
Love you 🤟
Cell phones or Smart phones? Theres a big difference, one is a modern touch screen computer the other just takes basic calls and texts.
My husband loved this song, so do i, i played it at his funeral in November 😭. Means soo much to us both x
Sorry for your loss. It's good your love lasted a lifetime.
When I've lost someone close to me, w heat I'll do is wait for the pain to ease a bit, and then I'll visit where they are. And then when the weather allows it, I'll take a trip to wherever I can get a good view of the night sky. And while I'm contemplating the vastness of the cosmos, I remember what many have said - that our spirits take a place amongst the stars. And at some point, I'll feel a cool breeze that I'm convinced is the spirit of the departed saying that I have not left you and never will. And then we will meet again on that distant shore in a better place. Hopefully you can find solace in this. Peace.
I'm so sorry about your loss!
A widow 25 years now, hang in there... memories and great music will always make you smile. God Bless ❤️🔥
I am so sorry for the loss of your husband Stacey. May your memories with him comfort you and get you through the hard days. God bless you!🧡
Jenny
This song came out the year my stepfather died of bone cancer.That was 30 some years ago,and everytime I hear this song I am reminded that he will always be with me wherever I go. The song strikes a cord in the deepest part of those memories he gave to me,even the memories of his suffering and untimely death. I still think of him and cry over his death till this day. Thanks dad for taking care of me.
♥️
Lo vas a volver a ver OTRA VEZ, eso es garantizado!!
Nice words. I’m a stepdad too and love my step children like they’re my own. They all call me Dad and believe I’m better to them than their biological father.
That's why they're called Step Dad's because he step up to raise another person kid and may he R.I.P
Sorry..
one of the most beautiful songs ever written - this song is everything to me
Man, we may never hear a great era of music like the 80's again.
Then. RUclips should be the best invention in this century
Just lost my husband of 11 years...this was "our song" when we first met...it was true then, more so now. Love you, Robbie.
I am so sorry, I feel pain in your words
I lost my beautiful wife after 32 years together 3 years ago.
When he sang “you were the first, you’ll be the last” it really hit hard.
I miss you Deb.
@@vaughangregory-hunt4094 same here. He was the hero I never had. I am only 58, who will be the hero now? Maybe he taught me all I needed to know except for one thing, how to live without him.
Ms Diane,so sorry to hear of ur loss I lost my own at 16 n my sister just lost hers within the last hour The Flame was third song as well..I wish u peace n Gods mercy n grace, bless u honey Donna
@@dianebaum91 this comment hit home. I lost my husband in 2004. We met when I was 15 and he was 16. We grew up together. Always together. He was 29 and I was 28 when he past away. I always thought life put us together so we and teach each other something. But it’s true.. the one thing we dnt learn is how to live without one another.
Just saw Cheap Trick in Cincinnati last night and this song was one of the big highlights. Such a beautiful tune. Cheap Trick may be one of the most underrated rock bands in US history. So damn good.
I just seen them at blossom 2 weeks ago... unbelievable
I'm amazed that after all their hits, they only had 1 No.1 Hit, and this masterpiece was that one.
Maybe not a number one hit but I Want You to Want Me was a sensation when it was released.
Crazy little thing called love was great too
How bout Ghost Town it's a great song too I think
And they absolutely hate this song. Funny how that works
Aerosmith only ever had one #1 song, from the movie Armageddon!!!
One of the most hauntingly beautiful and heartbreaking songs ever written.
this song is the story of my life - every lyric i have lived it
Cheap Trick is nominated for the 2016 Rock n Roll of Fame, deservedly so. Good luck CT!
hello..
+Robin Long Easily!!
+Robin Long Congrats to Cheap Trick, Deep Purple and Chicago! Finally some great Rock is getting into the Hall!
+DBKetch Yeah right?! Those 3 were exactly my picks too! Chicago way long overdue! (I mean, Madonna got in before them? smh!) Yay CT!
Robin Long
Dont get me wrong but Madonna is good but better than CT....gag me LOL!
They just don't make great music like this anymore ! These 80 power ballad songs bring back so many awesome memories. I sometimes shed a tear of joy from the good memories these songs give me .
conditions unknown...Yes! those 'power ballads'. So many!!! Boomer Generation!!! The best music ever!
I know how you feel.
The 80s music is literally a healing tonic from the shithole the world is now and permanently.
Don't worry you are not the only one.
yes 👍
This song reminds me of my late Son,born in the 80's,it was a unexpected death.But he is my everything, he loved music.He has left a beautiful family.2 young children.He would text me songs all the time this is 1 he would of,great song!
🤘🏻🤘🏻🎸 😊
Was my former boyfriend’s favourite slow song for us to dance to in 1988❤. Memories of puppy love, cruising around in his big Buick with the tunes blaring, good night kisses that were sweet & innocent. I think about you now & then, Stephan. Thank you for the love letters, slow dancing, making me laugh, and making me feel loved for the first time at the tender age of 20.
One of the most beautiful songs of all time! Sometimes for whatever reasons we can’t be with our flames but the fire 🔥 still burns forever
Mis: Try High Enough( DAMN YANKEES).BIG 10 dealing vocals and the guitar touches the heart really.
I feel this.. I still fight w/ my family everytime I see them.. I’m broken because of them but nothing w/ out them..
take care and May God bless you like he has done for me ;]
Yes it was
Is because real love never dies 💕
Jean Marie Nadal thanks for the tip, definitely will check it out 😄
This just never gets old. 2020 or the 80’s. Never be music as good as this
You've got that right! Hail the 80's! I wanna go back! 😭
Definitely. I like many of their songs. I also like mighty wings
Nicky, you have that right! I love Cheap Trick, The Flame and just about anything 80's! What an eclectic variety of music produced in a 10 yr. span! I don't think we'll ever see it again! The artist's and music were just so good! And the personalities and charisma! Thank God for CD's and the internet!
Never gets old
This has always been my fav cheap trick song I remember when this was new
Forever this song will be locked in my heart ❤️ It kept me alive and dreaming.
I just Love love love this song ❤️❣️❤️ IT was Our wedding song on August 19th 1989 in Endwell NY ❤😊🎉❤. IT makes my heart SOO VERY HAPPY every time I hear it 💗 especially now 😢 cuz my husband Martin passed away 😇 in 2010 . God Bless You honey ❤❤❤❤ and God Bless Everyone 😇 Nancy from Las Vegas and Upstate NY and Boynton Beach ⛱️ FL ❣️❤️❣️
🤘🏻🤘🏻🎸 😊
I don't know how many hundreds of times I've heard this song... it NEVER gets old. What a classic.
There are lots of great Ballads in the 80s and this is definitely one of them 😍💋❤️🔥
100% Agree
This song gives me chills from head to toe!
Pure emotion, this song . Nothing wasted. Their best. Big respect for them. Hard working . Never saw it go to their heads.
my wife is my flame. we were together since 2nd year high school. thank God because I have her. can't imagine life without her. now we have 4 kids.
Cheap Trick - The Flame,One of the Greatest Love Songs of All Time."The Flame" is a ballad written by British songwriters Bob Mitchell and Nick Graham. The song was first offered to English singer Elkie Brooks, who turned it down, and was then released by Cheap Trick, for which it was a hit single in 1988.
Edward Wayne Wilkins Jr. your Love Playlist is freaking perfect!
Thanks Beautiful, Glad you Liked it, Friend me on Facebook It You Like.
Edward Wayne Wilkins Jr. that's exactly right
One of the best love songs ever written
I saw them in August of 1980 at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas tx. Found out i was pregnant with my baby girl that day. She was in a fatal car accident July 29th 1999. We use to ride around and play this a sing it among others. I play this song every day. Peace
Probably said in the comments on here already but, Robin Zander is one of the best vocalists from that era. Very underrated as well. Still sounds amazing live as well.
Watch The CT episode of Live at Darryl's House. Zander hasn't lost a thing. Great tracks with an amazing house band. "No Direction" is mind blowingly pulled off to perfection.
I love Robin Zanders voice. This song has been one of my favorites ever since it came out. It just pops up in my brain and then I gotta watch the video again because I gotta see Robin singing it. ❤
my Flame was and is Diane Marie Bartmann...long ago deceased (32 years ago now)...and I CAN'T believe she is gone...but the LOVE goes on forever! we were both from Rockford, Illinois, we graduated together from East High, class of 1970...
Cheap Trick are hometown boys...Sleep gently my love...Jag Alskar Dig
(she was of Swedish extraction, and taught me how to say this) i still hear her voice...Somewhere in Time
That was so beautiful.
❤❤
holding back tears. you are a man above men.
you almost make me shed tears old man :)...be strong :)
Some day Mr Steven, you are going to be very very happy again, to see your Flame coming back from that long sleep, once and ever...someday...
My dad died today due to cancer and this was his favorite song . R.I.P Dad, I love you!
Es lo unico
En su memoria❤❤❤
Emery Concha RIP to your dad ❤️
Oh gee I'm so sorry ,,God Bless You
Im so sorry for your loss.
Beautiful song. Me and my husband were blessed to see Cheap Trick, Journey, Bryan Adams, Foreigner and Heart at a two day concert events. It was awesome. The music from the 80’s is the best. ❤️❤️❤️
Wow what a lineup 😮❤
A very Happy 71st Birthday Robin Wayne Zander. Born in Beloit, Wisconsin January 23, 1953.
Robin joined Cheap Trick 50 years ago. 1974..
R & R Hall of Fame induction proves they are a great rock and roll band.
Many, many more Robin Wayne..
One of the all time great rock vocal performances. Incredible.
Who's still listening to this in quarantine 2020? Just the ones with a great taste in music!
Me
Jimmy Meas me!!!
Absolutely brilliant now and then
Me ✋
Jimmy Meas I am
No matter his love is tri, bi, homosexual, or anything else, this is the most beautiful love song I have ever heard.
I Agree 💯
The Flame by Cheap Trick was my husband and myself song. He rarely danced but this song was played he would dance slow to it. We definitely loved this song. Now that he has passed away I still listen to it. It brings so much joy and loved mermories
My favorite...☺
80s till I'm dead
Chills
Keep enjoying the song Marilyn. Don’t stop a good thing
@@nicoleranney3866 yes
I turned 18 in 1980. I couldn't have asked to have been born at a better time! The 80's was one hell of a ride! Great music, loose women and President Reagan! Life was great! I honestly don't know how I managed to survive it!
It's long gone but I have my memories and we'll always have the music!
Wish I was around in the 80s, I was Born in 88
Yup, same age.
In 1980, I turned 22...4 years older than you and my fiancee and i had broken up and i thought life was over. I still have the wedding rings he gave me in 1978. He turned out to be a drug addict on heroin...so he messed up the life of another girl and their kids. Glad it wasnt me....he just passed of a drug overdose...and we still loved each other. Love this song..
Hands down my very favorite Cheap Trick song. Saw you play it live on NAS Corpus Christi many years ago and was awesome! Thank you for remaining true to your music. I grew up in southern WI very near Rockford. I REALLY wanted to come to one of your concerts when I was in high school. My mother wouldn't let me go because you were playing with Supertramp and when I asked she got mad. "You are NOT going to see a cheap trick or a super tramp!" Never thought about the names before she said that. Every time we go back home to WI there is always a Cheap Trick song playing on the radio and it just makes my heart happy. Thank you for so many years of great music.
Wish I could go back and grow up in the 80s as a teen all over again. Met the love of my wife that I've been with 40 years. All the great concerts and music, simpler world. Just to do it again and discover songs like this all over again would be awesome
Awww I know how you feel
Music is life
At 28 years old, this is my all time favorite song. I love music from the 70's - 80's. The "musicians" nowadays need to take notes.
I'm 33 and refuse to listen to anything after 1989 unless it's something a classic band has put out! Mötley Crüe have been my heroes since I was 3 but I also love cheap trick
Saw Motley Crue in concert with Hinder. Great show! ☺
i get to see heart, chip trick and Joan jett live in one concert this August
R.E.M. Losing My Religion was the song of the year in 91. Great song. Not much came after that to me. I was 14 in 1977 and the list of great albums that came out that year is long. The year before was a little album titled Hotel California. What a great decade to have been a kid. In 89 I was just getting out of the Navy.
im used to 70s80s music, kids now paying $200.00 - 300.00 for concerts, i dont remember seeing 10 year olds at concerts
This song never gets old. I still chills
Me too!
My cassette tape TC. I do.
Omg me too abt once a year I look this up yup still rocking. The band slaughter grew up like 45 min from me in mn
This came out in June '88 when my newborn son's dad walked out on me. Now 33 years later my son died. This song literally breaks my heart now, the words hit different 😭💔 gregg33mom
Es igual que un buen vino,sabe mejor con los años.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written and performed perfectly 🥰
Every noand then I hear it and it reminds me not to give up on love!
Robin Zander, what a warm but crisp sounding timbre/tone to his vocals, unique vibrato too. And yep this song still hits me in the gut, always will
“ You were the first, you’ll be the last!” Love that line!
Thank you
Real talk
Jojo reference
My high school sweetheart who was my first and I still talk to each other to this day. 50 Years later and both of us are single. We had our 1st date in 48 years in 2022. It was GREAT. Both of us have been single for over 25 years. I still love her, but we live 1850 miles apart. Wish I knew what to do!!!
the flame.. I want one! My opinion is it's one of the greatest Love Songs... Ever...Ever..n ever!
Kelly, be very careful what you wish for, Love and Pain are two sides of the same coin. the GREATER the LOVE, the deeper the Pain cuts when something happens...
+steven wicks hi Steven..if wishes were fishes.. the seas would be full?
I agree.
rock and roll bands of the 80s wrote tthe best love songs of all time.
steven wickes: Very well said sir, I couldn't agree more.
This song came out shortly after my Mom died in 1988. For me it is her song now. Our mothers are always our first girl. You'll always be the one. You were the first you'll be the last. I still can't believe you're gone.
RIP
Legend had it Cheap Trick was offered this or "Look Away," which went to Chicago. They had to record one of them. Look Away was the bigger hit, but this was better song and Cheap Trick chose wisely.
Power ballad, nobody does these anymore. Good stuff.
Actually Bullet for my valentine does some decent ballads.
They suck.Couldn't hold a candle to Cheap Trick.
+sandra petrowski cheap trick all time greatest
sandra petrowski uig
gregkut1 I miss my life today it sucks
An old boyfriend told me this was his song to me and to think of him when I heard it. At the time I had a newborn baby with a guy who had cheated on me after the baby was born and I wanted my child to have his father so even though I cared for the other guy very much, I chose to stay with the babies father. Ive thought about him alot over the years, but lost touch with him. I recently found out that he had passed away at only 50 yrs old. It completely broke my heart to know he is gone. Hearing this song again after all these years has a different meaning for me, more so now knowing he is gone.😭💔😥 Rest easy Chris McCabe, you were and always will be in my heart.
Wow, well it's better to have loved and lost than.....no, it sucks all around.
Oh my God so sorry 😭😭😭😭
excelent post what a story i am sure he was a great guy nice post❤👏
Some people who live in our memory are more valuable than anything thing the present day has on auction. There are beautiful women and eccentric characters I will never forget. And then there is garbage I forget before I even know it’s name
@@edwardedwards6785 death is final tho. And its sad.
One of the best songs ever! ❤ I listen to it all the time! When me and hubby are going through rough times married since 1980 I have to listen to this song to cry to and cheer me up and get myself together! ❤❤❤❤😢😢😢😅😅😅😅😊
Underrated band with an exceptional lead singer, probably among the top 10 Rock lead singers that has been overlooked
when you hear a song like this, you realize that they pour their heart and soul into it. the 80s was such an incredible time for music. like many of you, I also share the notion that there was something special about that time and music that sadly cannot be replicated today. too bad for this generation; it was such an incredible time!
JC Valentin So so true❤️
Too bad they hate it so much it almost never gets played in concert. Which sucks cause I think its one of their best!
What's more amazing is that they were trashing this song on the set of the video for this song
So do true indeed!
JC or avi
Damn. The look he gives the camera at 2:31 makes my knees go weak.
What a vocal range this man has - soft and smoky, to crystal and sweet, to raspy screams, just wow.
As a whole, Cheap Trick ticks every single box for Best Rock Band ever. And my vote also goes to Best Lead Vocalist, in case that wasn't clear...
My first innocent true love on-and-off relationship from the beginning of third grade until the end of sixth grade (sixth graders went to junior high back then in my district; I’m 57 now) looked like this lead singer but with shorter feathered golden-blond hair and blue eyes. Every time I see this singer when he was younger like this, I always remember Andy. But he broke my heart over a lie told about me to him and ended our relationship at the last school dance that year. Shortly thereafter, I moved hundreds of miles away. I never saw him again. Life went on, and I ended up marrying a man, the love of my life, completely different from Andy years and years later and have been married to him for coming on 40 years now. Had Andy not broken my heart and I not have moved away, I never would have wound up with the right guy for me who has never believed a lie about me. Funny how things work out like that...by God’s Hand alone! But I still remember the sweet moments of yesteryear before the heartbreak when I watch this band play in their earlier days. ☺️
Just an incredible track , right up there with the greatest songs ever written
Hi I Recommend an indie song called 'the bond villain' By Robert Nix
This song touches my soul. The love of my life died years ago, and this song captures the essence of our marriage. I'm forever grateful to Cheap Trick for this.
I will never get tired of hearing this song. Long live the 80s.
One of the best ever from Cheap Trick.. "You were the first, you'll be the last" what a great line. from 1988 and still great in 2021...
One of the best ballads ever
@@stoneyj1a1 Yes, indeed..
@@1stand2ndtimearound67 Just FYI: The Flame was written by two British song writers. A female singer was offered this song but turned it down. Lucky for Cheap Trick and the rest of us that she did.
@@thomasluby1754 Thank you!
1988 was a truly great year. By then Tom Pererson was back in good standing withtn CT.
Eita, meu Deus! Obrigado por crescer nos anos 80! Anos 80 a era de ouro da música!
I can’t imagine any other person singing this song. Steve Perry is my favorite singer. I served in the Air Force and heard his voice in a lot of countries where I was stationed. When walking down the streets of Songton City, you could here his voice/music on every corner. Rock on Mr. Perry and God Bless❤. Please come to South Carolina if you tour again.😊
Omg, I absolutely love this song!! I keep playing it over and over. It goes straight to your soul!!! These were the good Ole days!!! It won't ever be like that again and I'm so glad I grew up during these times!!! Great memories!!!
The 80s were truly special, and it's intriguing to consider that their uniqueness might be amplified by the fact that those times are gone - almost as if their special quality is eternal precisely because they are no more.
Yo he sido suertudo, pero sobre todo bendecido, tengo 58 años me tocó escuchar la Mejor Música de Todos los Tiempos: 60, 70, 80, 90, y la seguiré escuchando mientras Dios me lo Permita, El Arte, Ingenio, Sentimiento, interpretación y Sensibilidad con la que fueron hechas todas estas canciones es genial, soy rockero de corazón y toda esta música me transporta a los años vivídos con una Nostalgia Increíble, como anteriormente alguien puso, si pudiera regresar en el tiempo, con gusto lo haría!!!
En estos tiempos difíciles que estamos viviendo es un remanso de paz y alegría escuchar esta maravillosa música para desestresarse y transportarte a una burbuja donde te sientes, seguro, en paz y alegre por lo vivido!!! Bendiciones para Todos🙏🏽❤️🍀
😂
👍
Si, de la mejor música de los '80....
I’m absolutely in love with this song and group! Forever grateful for them 😢
I'm 41 and my mom introduced me to cheap trick in the 80's. This has always been one of my favorite songs ever. I won tickets to see them in 93 from the local radio station. 101.5kgb. Thanks mom 😘
The Flame
Cheap Trick
Another night slowly closes in
And I feel so lonely
Touching heat freezing on my skin
I pretend you still hold me
I'm going crazy, I'm losing sleep
I'm in too far, I'm in way too deep over you
I can't believe you're gone
You were the first, you'll be the last
Wherever you go, I'll be with you
Whatever you want, I'll give it to you
Whenever you need someone
To lay your heart and head upon
Remember, after the fire, after all the rain
I will be the flame
I will be the flame
Watching shadows move across the wall
I feel so frightened
I wanna run to you, I wanna call
But I've been hit by lightning
Just can't stand up for fallin' apart
Can't see through this veil across my heart, over you
You'll always be the one
You were the first, you'll be the last
Wherever you go, I'll be with you
Whatever you want, I'll give it to you
Whenever you need someone
To lay your heart and head upon
Remember, after the fire, after all the rain
I will be the flame
I will be the flame
I'm going crazy, I'm losing sleep
I'm in too far, I'm in way too deep over you
You'll always be the one
You were the first, you'll be the last
Wherever you go, I'll be with you
Whatever you want, I'll give it to you
Whenever you need someone
To lay your heart and head upon
Remember, after the fire, after all the rain
I will be the flame
I will be the flame
Whatever you want, I'll give it to you
Wherever you go, I'll be with you
And whatever you want, I'll give it to you
Ada Matkiding juga ternyata
Thank you😀😀
J
lah ada matkiding, pak nuzrul seneng nih kayaknya lagu ini hahaha
Thank you
Oh the memories this song brings back 🎶 Thank you Cheap Trick 👍🏻😊🎸
This used to play at my work when I was 15. Never thought much of it back then, but after finding it again many years later, I realise it's a great song.
Especially when you had to hear it several times during the night shift
Lost my wife to lupus last week. This song takes on a new meaning.
So sorry for your loss brother. Cherish the memories. 💙
Mr.Wade I am truly sorry for ur pain.I lost my brother in law recently that was his n my sisters song.I do feel ur pain n pray God gives u grace n peace..Take care of u..Michelle
Peace and Prayers to you and your family
So sorry for your lost brother! I will pray for you.
sorry for your loss sir....
This is one of those songs I can listen to over & over it never gets old.
One of the most iconic songs of the unforgettable 80´s!!!!!
When I hear this song it takes me back to being when was the happiest. With my first wife who passed away almost 27 years ago
I lost my kids' father and my partner of 7 years to brain cancer last March. This song hits extra hard now.
"I can't believe you're gone..."
"You'll always be the one..."
The Music of the 80's & 90's was the best, in terms of writings, delivery, feelings, & instrumental presentations. Today's Millennials have absolutely no clue about things in general. Those were times where artist; regardless of musical taste, had to play their instruments & perform @ the same time. I've built a "Time Ship" & I'm going back to the 80's on a one way trip! There's plenty of room, anyone wanna come along?
Santiago Murillo I do
I hear You
Let's go!
Fuck yeah man I'm an '80's guy and I'll jump right aboard that '80's 'Time Ship'-just make sure I don't have to return to 2019.
This is the definition of a rock ballad
In addition these song undeniably a huge anthem to love.
For sure!!!
Definitely - no ifs or buts. Whenever I hear the term "Rock Ballad", I immediately think of this track.
If you are just lovesick, or you are without the one you love and in real pain…this song hits the spot. It is one of the most powerful and passionate love songs out there. I’m in that situation now.
So underrated. I consider him to be one of the 10 best rock vocalists ever. If I had a mic, I’d drop it right now! If you’re not familiar with the Babys, get familiar, you’ll be glad. John Waite is amazing!
who in the world and how in the world can this song get 6k thumbs down??????????this ballad is one of the best songs EVER recorded...period!!
Justin beaver fans most probably.
Just remember, some people ain't got no sense.
Some people have better taste in music.

@David Roberts no ones keeping you here. mind your head on the way out.
I was born in 1960 and I have to honestly say in my opinion that the music from the '50's, 60's, 70's, and 80's had a huge impact on my upbringing. Just for the fact it had such great talent. I honestly like a big diverse amount of talent from the 4 era's except for a choice few groups. I will leave it at that but I truly like Cheap Trick for the fact Robin has an amazing voice.
I was born in 64 we had it so good especially the music... Know it all n still listen to it daily
Well im jealous I was born in 2001 haha
Welcome aboard bro, 🤗🤗👍👍
aaaa was tererga TX ca q
I was born in the 70’s and I’d prefer listening to the music of 50’s up to the 90’s ,and for me were far too good to listen to,and how lucky I was to grow up into these kind of music.🥰🥰🥰❤️🇵🇭🇦🇺
My mother Karen Dawn Eagle- Ball loved Robin Zander. So this song reminds me of her. This song though, makes me wish there was a love ( a human connection) ❤️ like this. Though I love ❤️ deeply and would be there for anyone in need. The love 💗 that this song speaks of is rare and requires both people to be willing. Damn what a beautiful love ❤️ song 😢 😂 though
It’s funny, I grew up in the 80’s-90’s. This ballad definitely sticks with me. A time when music was about relationships and true love, cut jeans, long hair, fast cars. Society definitely set the stage back then lol. It was a perfect time to grow up with love ballads in the air. So thankful I experienced, love, break-ups, and music as my personal
Compass as young lad. Forever in my soul and memories. Cheers.
Brings back memories of the 80s. It was a simpler time and I miss it.
Ja też bym chciała,żeby te czasy wróciły.Były najlepsze pod względem wszystkiego chyba.nie tylko muzyki,ale wogóle.
@Sleeping ugh
Najlepsza muzyka pod słońcem i to się nie zmieni NIGDY.
I agree Bryan. It was a lot simpler in every way. And it was more fun in every way. Technology is turning the human race into a bunch of freaks....... I wish I was wrong about that.
I miss the 80's so much, it literally brings a tear to my eye sometimes....I'm glad I was around to experience that decade!
me too...in my early 20's too
I feel yi, Greatest time of my life, so powerfull the music was
I am child from 80s great song wow miss this classic songs
Amen to that!!!!
