My wife's and my favorite song. When she passed away in 2002 at 49. We had it all so no regrets, I have the memories I just found this song on the internet and it brings back all the memories, "WE HAD IT ALL". Married in 1981 (same year Bertie sang this song) till the end. This song still gets to me..RIP Karen, miss you !
In 1981 I lost my son in a Auto Accident . He was going on 19 years old. This was him and his girlfriend song. When I hear this beautiful song I still after all these years get a little tear in my eyes. I so miss my little boy RIP MY SON. BOBBY ~!~
Well That Story of Your Boy,,, Brough Tears To My Eyes... May God and Buddha Bless You, Your Family, and Your Son,,, Bless All Of You For The Love Your Had,,, and For The Love You HAVE Today,,, I Love That Boy,,,, Thru Tear Filled Eyes,,, and I Never Met Him,,, But I Love Him,,,, He Must of Been So Special,,, As Are You,,,,
Got married in 1976, in 1981 we had we had 2 children, my husband would say "wanna go to Key Largo", when things were in a flurry with the kids. I always laughed and said when do we leave? May he RIP, left this life we lived in 2019.
I had a horrific abusive childhood. So many songs trigger my ptsd but every once in a great while one will fill me with a bittersweet peace. A song that took me away from my self harm and suicidal ideation even if just for 3 minutes
Man! This song really brought tears to my eyes... It reminds me of the early 80's when I was in my early 20's and Very Carefree & Happy! I'm Still Happy, but it just sucks getting old!! Beautiful, Gorgeous, Song, Bertie!!! Kathy~Twinless Twin-😞
Kathleen Gallagher my mom god rest her introduced me to this back in the year 2000 she died n this song is now a part of me n I'm pushing 30...a tad younger I assume but after what I lost Bertie is still keeping me going...Thanks mom
Back when music was music brings back memories of being 9 years old in 81 not a care in the world no covid no 6 feet apart mask wearing .now I'm 48 missing the good days💔
@@garyhighley9022 I was way more poor than you all because I stole food to feed mom and sister and my self...Dad was a dead-beat jerk and never but two times maybe payed the child support
@@cowmoo007 why does it have to be a contest who was poorer? You dont know me, maybe I ate out of trash dumpsters because I was afraid to get caught stealing from the store again, and maybe i had 3 brothers and 3 sisters besides myself and my parents living off off dads min wage job in a 2 bedroom house in the projects where murders happened on the norm...and as a white minority in the wrong side of town in an already fucked up city. And maybe youre just a fucking troll.
If we did not have the music we have now we would not appreciate the beauty in the songs that were played in the 60s 70s and 80s that was truly a beautiful ERA in music.. Thankful that I was born in an era that had so many heartfelt songs that would paralyze the heart and leave you in love ..
I have loved this song ever since it first came out. Its a little sadder for me now because the man I love passed away about 4 1/2 years ago but the song still means a lot to me now.
A true one-hit wonder. This was a huge hit in the Spring of 1982. After "Key Largo", Bertie Higgins basically fell off the map, so to speak. He never had another major hit single. Thirty years old & still a classic! Bravo, Bertie Higgins!
My first instinct is to disagree. There was infidelity by both, but that may have drew them even closer. I just found out they co starred in the film "Key Largo." I plan to watch it for the first time very soon.
The first time I heard this song was in the early 80s. My grandmother worked in a bar and this song got played a lot on the jukebox. I've always liked it.
Reminds me of good times.. when my baby brother Michael was born ❤😍 mom n dad n all us sisters n our brother, the first boy was born ❤ good old days when life was good 😢 miss those times 💔😢
This reminds me when I lived my life as I wanted, I moved to Ocean Beach California and never will forget the memories I had. I was so happy being me and loved being at the beach and being a hippie even though life hasn't always been easy and time passes these memories i will always have. Thank you
I absolutely love this song. I remember it from when I was a little baby and I never forgot it because of how lovely and happy the melody of the song and the voice of the man singing it really blew me away so when I was able to I looked up this song and I was able to find out who it came from and everything and now I am so happy because I own the CD. I love Bertie Higgins! This is such a sweet romantic song. The woman who he dedicated this song to is so lucky!
I actually lived a good part of my life with my Bacall. I then stupidly left her for another and I have been broken hearted ever since. I loved her and still love her with every fiber of my being. This song was being played when were about 23 or 24. I love her so very much still but she has moved on.
I listened to Al Jarreau singing "Moonlighting, followed by Chris Cross singing, "The Best That You Can Do". This was what I needed to hear next. Some seriously romantic music... I love it so much.
21 years ago my mom bought this album of trop rock...I passed on it as I was 12 and didn't care for it but this song hit me a few months later...it hits me now as it does now...Key Largo seems like a good place! Thanks mom and Bertie...these songs helped!
I so love this song you guys, check this out though im not from back in the days, & im 20. Hey Fred i will sing this at my wedding with my wife because this is a song that signifies love to me. I see an 80 year old couple sing this to each other on karaoke night and itll never get old. Love this song so much.
Many years ago, while driving to work, this song would come on the radio in the same place on this street 4 days in a row! I love this song. It takes me back to a better time in my life, and to that place in the road on my way to work!
"We always have Paris, If we thought we lost it, last night we got it back again" At least we were there for a while once , just yesterday. Thank you God for giving me that experience
"Casablanca" had so many great lines, didn't it? And that one was huge! Not as big as "Here's lookin' at you, kid," though! And it wasn't Bacall with him in that one, of course, but it was a great move to get that great line into this great song!
Oh the wonderful memories this song brings back!! I have been married to my Jimbo for 42 years,he is still my hero,and I am still his leading lady! Thank you Bertie for such a wonderful song.
Wow, did you keep in contact with her all these years orb was she from your town? How did you hear of her passing? I dont have any contact with my former girlfriends. Maybe I can get a little off the internet but not much. How did you learn of her passing? And why did she break off your engagement?
I was flipping through the channels and found myself watching Dark Passage (1947) with Bogart and Bacall...and just had to look this song up! Thanks for posting!
What a masterful song that captures so much... RIP Lauren and thanks for the memories. Here's looking at you kid...please say you will, play it again... How sad that the recent news of a thug and rioting upstaged the life and greatness of a good person.
Love this song. I heard this song before I even watched the film Key Largo. Very good movie, but this song just takes me back to a decade full of good times and great music. Here's lookin at you kid........;)
One may have passed over, but "Key Largo" will come again. Nothing stops a special love like this. SOME are very , very fortunate to have lived it, once, and because of that STRENGTH of their love, they WILL be there again. Key Largo.... again!!!!!
I lived this song and it's a rare thing to find. He died 18 years ago and I still look at his picture every day and talk to him. We were together once before and we'll be again.
It is actually, starring in "our own" late, late show, but a great song and a great video, thanks for putting it on here, it is now on my favorites list
I used to hear this song come on the radio almost every morning when my mom was listening to it as she got ready to take me to school. A simpler time and a time when I really had it all - I just didn't realize it at the time.
The melody and lyrics to this song are timeless; sounds as good today as it did over 30yrs ago.....you even get the feeling that Bogie and Bacall are residing in Key Largo, still. The magic that Bogie and Bacall found, still has an unexplainable influence today. Bogie, by the way, is my all-time favorite actor.....fine actor, gone too soon.
I so concur with your comment I saw a documentary on him and they talked about his humility ad his love for Bacall I only wish I could see that type of love today
25 years together and I took my eye the ball, we did have it all, then she made a friend, who made her laugh and showed her attention when I wasnt, I'll miss you Mary
@@ronyeahright9536 I do NOT know you from the man on the moon... You have no impact on my beautiful memories no matter what disrespectful things you say! 💯💯💯
Oddly I used to think it was Kenny Rogers who did this song, I was stunned to find out that it wasn't, I wish today's pop music was half as diverse as it was in the early 1980's
My wife's and my favorite song. When she passed away in 2002 at 49.

I wonder if this man is still around, says it was 8 years ago
"This cant be the end"
I just lost my wife tomorrow will be a month now and I play this just for her

Sorry Robert , i know that you miss to your little boy , im so sorry, im mother and understan your feelings, very force.
Omg- so sorry for your loss. That’s awful. Don’t worry- he’s watching you from heaven! 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻

Wow I cant even imagine
I cried 😭 readin this.sorry about that
Thank God for my dad playing all these old songs, not many 23 year olds can say they know this song
@Suicidal Pornstar lol
Top dad
Wish he was mine kiddo, sound like ( he was or is still ) one of a kind ☺️👍
Not many 12-year-olds can say they know this song, either.
One of the most beautiful love songs ever written.
Ten years later and I agree. Such a beautiful song
Ah, the supplicant line: "Baby, this can't be the end" summarizes the nostalgic flavor of the song.
THIS SONG IS IMPOSSIBLE TO EVER GETTING OLD WHEN REAL LOVE SONGS WERE FOR EVER 🙏
Got married in 1976, in 1981 we had we had 2 children, my husband would say "wanna go to Key Largo", when things were in a flurry with the kids. I always laughed and said when do we leave? May he RIP, left this life we lived in 2019.
Makes you think back to better times when songs made you think.
❤
I had a horrific abusive childhood. So many songs trigger my ptsd but every once in a great while one will fill me with a bittersweet peace. A song that took me away from my self harm and suicidal ideation even if just for 3 minutes
@ Rene' Schultz I pray you found peace and tranquility. You are a stronger person for living. Best of luck to you in all you do.
Give us a break
Sadly the same
Hope you don’t mind, I’m praying for you. ♥️
I really know what you mean it’s easy to blame everyone and it’s easy to do with out realizing your doing but everyone is not bad and not the blame
One of many songs that don't get old.
100%agree❤❤❤

Great Song
This song makes you get lost back in time when it was the ocean,sunsets,and having the best times of my life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, for sure!
Brings back many memories and emotions of times gone forever.....great song!!
Whiuch in turns brings the times back anew!
Stargem Timestar, agreed. Always loved this song. Good times back then.

Bravo, Bertie Higgins!
Wasn't Casablanca also a hit?
That's pretty good, considering that it made him rich, and most of us are no-hit wonders.
And now 40 yrs
ONE OF MOST BEAUTIFUL SONGS OF ALL TIME !!!! YOU CAN SEE YOURSELF SAILING AWAY TO KEY LARGO !!!!
Never been to that part of Florida
The time when real music existed...
AMEN!! And you could hear EVERY word....and the lyrics meant something....
Absolutely my friend music now has lost its flavor we were blessed to be born in the 60s 70s and 80s And to listen To some of the best music
Amen
" Here's lookin' at you, Kid "......Most beautiful song of all....Song playing in Delivery when my daughter was born .
Thank you melanienam !!!
I used to work at Montgomery Ward's about 20 yrs ago, and this song would play every night at closing time.
There will never be another pair like Bogart and Bacall. True perfection.
My first instinct is to disagree. There was infidelity by both, but that may have drew them even closer. I just found out they co starred in the film "Key Largo." I plan to watch it for the first time very soon.
Still like this song. These oldies are always nice to come back to.
Crying my eyes out... Such a beautiful song🌹
Lauren, you were an icon to many. You will be sorely missed, we love you!
The first time I heard this song was in the early 80s. My grandmother worked in a bar and this song got played a lot on the jukebox. I've always liked it.
I was 18 years old when i used to watch this video , i loved it.
'we' had it all back then in the 80's...real love songs and a world of people who were sweet on love!
Reminds me of good times.. when my baby brother Michael was born ❤😍 mom n dad n all us sisters n our brother, the first boy was born ❤ good old days when life was good 😢 miss those times 💔😢

Listen to it often. Thanks for sharing.

Loved listening to pillow talk love ballets 100.3 in detroit on the radio in the 80s as a teenager. Now at 51 these songs are forever with me.
I was living in Florida when I first listened to this song. one of my all-time favorites.
I love this 1982 Bertie Higgins hit, which peaked @ #8 on Billboard's Hot 100 singles chart!
Bravo, Bertie Higgins!
The Music & the Lyrics...absolutely beautiful.
Yes life was innocent then. What a life it was great...nice song ..brings back memories..
Was just a kid when this came out. I now pay closer attention to the lyrics and I just love It!
"We always have Paris,
If we thought we lost it, last night we got it back again"
At least we were there for a while once , just yesterday.
Thank you God for giving me that experience

Memories from early 1982, when my girlfriend broke off our engagement, our song .
Rest in Peace Mary Ann.
Wonderful song...bless you

@@thornyturtleranch4u bruh why so many questions
Why should such a great song bring back memories of bad times, nothing bad was going on with me in 1982
Here because I like a good song.
Fabulous memories, song and times.
He so representative oft hose times as John Travolta was. I'm 74, blessed to have lived those times.
Absolutely brings back memories, some with heartache.
Gotta love John Travolta!
I have this song stuck in my head and it wont go away.

Yeah those winters are brutal in key largo especially when it under 78 I hope there yacts don't freeze up

A VERY underrated song ! It was years ahead of all that borrowed from him ! It’s ALL GOOD !
Just beautiful, I always adored this song.....❤ 🎶❤ 🎶
Love this song. I heard this song before I even watched the film Key Largo. Very good movie, but this song just takes me back to a decade full of good times and great music. Here's lookin at you kid........;)
No memories of this, but it still gives me goosebumps and wet eye.
Thanks for the memory! We had it all! Rest in the heavens My Carol
The song is as beautiful as the memories that go with it.....My first love 😢
wonderful' still....
I grew up in the 80s listening to "easy listening" radio and this was one of the most popular songs on any station I listened to.
One may have passed over, but "Key Largo" will come again.
Nothing stops a special love like this. SOME are very , very fortunate to have lived it, once, and because of that STRENGTH of their love, they WILL be there again. Key Largo.... again!!!!!
Gives me such a " Coming Home " feeling. I do like it. Beautiful song ! The Little
Back in 1981 had a girlfriend named Debbie..sweetheart of a girl..this song makes me think of how sweet of a person she was..
We had it all
Debbie who ?
I lived this song and it's a rare thing to find. He died 18 years ago and I still look at his picture every day and talk to him. We were together once before and we'll be again.
