I remember the first on only time till today I saw this clip! In 1988, I and my family were living in Mexico. We were on a road trip to the nice region and city of Guanajuato ! In the fine hotel nicely located on the top of the hill and overlooking the city heart, the HBO TV channel was playing the "Love at the Greek" full concert and they terminated the show with this new clip "This Time". I felt in love immediatey with this wonderful song. One of the best love songs to my mind. I never forgot it as well as the white Jaguar XK 140 that Neil is driving in this clip.
this song has been one of my all time favorites for years and years. i am a cello player and music lover of all genres, this song is truly beautiful, and always evokes emotion from me no matter how many times i listen to it. Neil truly says it right for this song!!
My favorite singer and a song with such great meaning. I will include it in the Neil songs I love to sing..... Love with all your heart, give and ask for nothing in return, include the one you love in your dreams, don't let anyone tell you NO, SAY IT again and again till you say it right.
Thank you for responding to my comments. I particularly like what you written in your post. " A legend and a Diamond that is forever" I couldn't agree w/you more. He truly is Americas best Singer/Songwriter. Take care my friend. Florida USA..
Aloha Neil Diamond and adityakumardsv !!!! Thank you for posting your unique version of "This Time." I have followed your career as a teenager. I am now 7 8 years old and still hear you sing on RUclips every single day without fail !!!! Because you are the ultimate songwriter, golden singer, humanitarian, and a humble gentleman !!!!!! Your songs about love, life , and treating everyone with dignity !!!!! That's why I listen to your songs !!!! Grateful fan, Robert S.J. Hu August 16, 2020.
Back in 82 after the pain of a broken marriage MY FAULT I moved to my present home and opposite lived a lovely blond lady 5yrs older than me and I asked her out for dinner, she became my wife in 83 and we have been together since I had custody of my children and she loved and brought them up right, now I have a terminal illness but I know she made it right next time for me I will love her for eternity Fin Blue
I love the story of the video. It's more romantic than the song even. The man says goodbye to his lady, for whatever reason, and then regrets it so much that he drives all the way to her destination, seemingly trying to beat the train, so he can be standing there when she turns around. (This story would have made a great tv movie back in the day.) I like how Mr. Diamond's obvious discomfort in front of the camera adds to the sort of "Gee whiz. Please come back" factor.
One thing I always wished was to see Neil in concert. The problem was his concerts usually sold out within hours of going on sale so it never happened.
I remember the first time I watched this video, and the first thing I thought was" He's done it again!" His songs are so great, and he sings them with so much heart. But, after that, I found myself thinking, as I still do, "Who is that beautiful woman in the video?" I still find myself thinking the same thing, even after all of these years. Does anyone know?
My dad once possessed the VHS as well. I remember that he and I used to watch it together when I was a small kid before he and my mom got divorced when I was 5 years old. I own the DVD version now. Over time I loved this song and tried to memorize every lyric. A few times I tried mention it, every person acted like that no one had heard of it. I love this one and a few others like "I am...I said," "America," just to name a couple of examples.
Neil Diamond sings from the heart . He is the greatest ever . I never get tired of his voice or songs an American legend . I grew up with your music Neil !
Down through the years, his music has been powerful ... this is an incredibly powerful love song that cuts to the core ... probably my favorite... wow!
I first heard this song while expecting my first daughter and I not only thought it incredibly touching, but somehow knew it would have a special significance to me. My daughter was born, Valentine's Day 1989, and I heard the song in hospital. 2 days later, her fatal heart problems began to show. She lived through a 5 hour surgery and died the next evening - a total of 8 days. I bought the record, and "I close my eyes and I keep re-living it - over again". This song remains a touching reminder.
thank you for posting this video my mother had this on the tape it's off of but when i was little i watched it so much the film broke i was very sad when it happened that was my favorite tape & my mother used to play neil for me when i was little & couldnt get to sleep ... again thanks for posting
a david foster big ballad production! nice guitars by mike landau and steve lukather!with richard page steve george and bill champlin on backup vocals! tasty!!
@fireworkstoo Yes, he did go after her.... How beautiful was that. Now that is real Love! So romantic this video. Love it so!! Thanks for posting @adityakumardsv.
beautiful sad song--marvelous video--diving thru the night to find her in my Jaguar. mine was a silver/grey XK120. the XKs thru the 150 were the unique marque of luxury sports cars. Sad but sweet to remenisce - i too lost the lady and sold the car somewhere in the sixties.
Like DEEP INSIDE OF YOU, THE STORY OF MY LIFE, ALL I REALLY NEED IS YOU, etc, this lovely ballad is steeped with emotion, poignancy and meaning. Much UNLIKE the TRITE that passed as Neil Diamond's "HITS": Song Sung Blue, Cracklin' Rosie, Sweet Caroline, Cherry Cherry, etc. Thanks to Neil Diamond for recording these songs, and to You Tube viewers for posting them!!
WOW, JUST WOW,EVERY SONG HE SINGS IS SO TOUCHING,LOVE HIS MUSIC,LOVE HIS SONGS,THANK YOU MR DIAMOND XXX
Neil is brilliant. Forever.
3.47 ~ That look...! Magic. Thank you for the music, Neil, all these years.
Nail tu voz es tan dulce y hermosa que no me canso de escucharte todos los días ❤
I just love his music his voice is wonderful i have his concerts i seen people try to sing like Neil there's only ONE.
For the love of my life, Stacy Cawley Wilkins Mannon from Garland, TX. I waited 37 years for you.
Never fail to touch your heart ❤just love it

A heartbreaking 💔 song by Neil, so beautiful 😍
Awesome song and video. Love the interaction between Neil and his lady love. Don't know who she is but she is beautiful. God bless you Neil
this song has been one of my all time favorites for years and years. i am a cello player and music lover of all genres, this song is truly beautiful, and always evokes emotion from me no matter how many times i listen to it. Neil truly says it right for this song!!
Classic!!! I take my hat off to you Mr Diamond..... you truly are an inspiration!

Love you❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Such raw emotion...understood only by having lived a similar heartache.
Does anyone else sing from the heart the way he does? He is an amazing artist!
ladyjane3660 he's probably my favorite male artist after Luther Vandross.
well said sir
From the bottom of a shattered heart.
El es el unico❤

This is my favorite song by Neil Diamond as far as his slow songs. It's beautiful. I love his voice!!
Amy P Thanks Amy . One of Neil's big ballads . I'll be there this time for you
Me too
Mine is "The Story of my Life," but this song is very close.
It is a great song and a well made video. Too bad, we don't get to hear such great music and see a clean video these days.
I love the story of the video. It's more romantic than the song even. The man says goodbye to his lady, for whatever reason, and then regrets it so much that he drives all the way to her destination, seemingly trying to beat the train, so he can be standing there when she turns around. (This story would have made a great tv movie back in the day.)
I like how Mr. Diamond's obvious discomfort in front of the camera adds to the sort of "Gee whiz. Please come back" factor.
Simply Beautiful!!

Just WOW🎉 on his part

VERY HEART FELT XO

Does anyone know?
Does anyone know who 'the beautiful woman in the video' IS? No one seems to be able to land it! ??
@@blueskiesblue All I can say is, she looks an awful lot like Lee Remick
beautiful story & love song,,,a neil at his best
My 1988 VHS of Neil Diamond’s Greatest Hits Live! Had the music video at the end of the tape and it comes directly after the program.
My dad once possessed the VHS as well. I remember that he and I used to watch it together when I was a small kid before he and my mom got divorced when I was 5 years old. I own the DVD version now. Over time I loved this song and tried to memorize every lyric. A few times I tried mention it, every person acted like that no one had heard of it.

Great song,great voice,great video need I say more..100 stars****Mr Diamond..Thanks for sharing..All the best..Brendan

dont you just love to listen to that voice?
dont you just love to listen to that voice?
I always thought it sounded like Neil was subbing for Peter Cetera in a Chicago song...but it's still pretty good.
EL CANTOR DE JAZZ bonita película para mí la mejor ,siempre siempre
This is a great song and video. Did Neil make more Music Video's and where can I find them?
questa volta un addio per sempre
Hi to every body see myself I love you
Inspired by the film "A MAN AND A WOMAN ".
Do I get to keep my head? I only have one head and I need it.
I don't understand people doesn't like Neil's songs
They are Martians, and they just don't know any better :) !!!
Come to FB's Group page: "Real Fans of Neil Diamond" .. We ROCK his whole life of music and fun! (Concerts, interviews, you name it!) A great group!
Was this directed towards his then wife Marcia? Lovely. So sad.
Who is the beautiful lady?
I am not sure really, but if you do manage to view any of his videos online, please drop me a line...Would really appreciate it.
