Beatiful song,,came on the radio the night my daughter was born as i was driving home..had to pull over as the song seemed perfect for the love i felt after seeing her born..we danced together on her wedding day to this..always brings a tear to my eyes
Epic Aussie music. Love song of a bygone aussie era. Very nostalgic. Amazing is an understatement. These aussie dudes were the real deal. Talented true artists. Love old school romantic aussie ballads!!!!!!!!!
Public Announcement: Forget COVID, how the hell does this song only have 601k views. The world doesn't deserve to keep going if they haven't heard this.
Never dreamed this would be on youtube! Didn't bother to look for it before!! This and John Farnham's "Burn for You" have much in common musically and such touching love songs
That's cos Phil Buckle from Southern Sons wrote them both. He's the one here playing the guitar. He wrote and played Burn For You for John Farnham too.
This song is pure 'love song' brilliance. Jack sings it so effortlessly and gives the lyric such emotive weight. One of my all time faves. Anther one I sing to my daughters. They adore it.
Gee Jack yonkers ago remember you & the band playing at some Pub in Newcastle……… then looking over & seeing Rebecca there 😱 ❤ we had heard rumours that you two were an item. We were just happy to see her there watching you, smiling & we went over & just said ‘Hi’ & we left her alone x
This song and his voice ...amongst the most beautiful things ever. I enjoyed singing it also in cover bands, of course, not a patch on him but a pleasurable song to sing..
The morning sunlight, moves gently on our bed Sounds of distant traffic, float into my head Eyes slowly open and words won't be enough But what is left unspoken burns softly in your touch (Chorus) So hold me in your arms Hold me in your arms So my love, hold me in your arms Time moves without us, this room will be untouched We're safe beneath the truth now Both safe within this love (Repeat Chorus) And oh the heart in me Feels more than you can see I can't get close enough Every single day, is ours to feel this way I can't get close enough, never close enough ...
i miss southern sons a lot and Jack Jones..his angelic voice makes me believe in love again..thank for this kind of music..wanna see you perform and sing again❤
I'm looking forward to see Jack Jones live for the first time when he performs as a member of The Caprettos at Hamer Hall Melbourne on Friday 20th January 2023. It's a great sign that live music is slowly but surely returning to normal scheduling and frequency post-peak-Covid times of cancellations and postponements of such concerts.
@@snickersbud8799 No, they're not unfortunately. Jack Jones aka Irwin Thomas has played a couple of solo shows playing the old Southern Sons songs. He's got a couple of shows coming up in 2019 as well. Unfortunately Virgil and the rest of the gang live all over the place (Jack himself is now US based), so it's pretty hard for them to get the crew together.
Lots of hits... Always and ever. Hold me in your arms. Waiting for that train. You were there. Lead me to water. Heart in danger. Plus loads of others that weren't released as singles.
Always thought he was paid-off to go away cos he was as good as John Farnham! The excuse for his leaving the group was to concentrate on playing guitar - with that voice? I reckon it's sus. Soooo good. Moves me deeply.
Not sure about that conspiracy theory. Jack Jones had his 15 minutes of fame in an industry that is very fickle. I think he needed to find his own identity instead of being a Farnham clone, and that was his biggest flaw in my opinion. He was a great singer and still is. Don't be surprised if he makes it big again.
sehnaz1 sorry to say this he is no john farnham he was at john farnham guitariest I not to sure if it is truth or not that john interduct jack jones and his band at his concert at chain reactian tour don t forget he known as Rebecca Gibney husband
I can remember a time when I would wake up at the crack of dawn and see the light beginning to shine through my window and bounce off my angels face as she was sleeping.Id get up early pack all my stuff and walk 5-6 miles down this long industrial road to a shelter and eat breakfast.I was homeless at the time and my Girlfriend had a nice studio a good job and rescued me off the street.Id still get up and walk those 5-6 miles everyday just to eat breakfast and figure out my life and where I was going, we planned on marriage after a while because she was pregnant, when my daughter arrived it was the best feeling in the world, I had a steady job, she had a awesome job 4 months into having a kid I lost the two people I loved more then anything in the entire world so I packed up a suitcase and hit the road, left everything behind me hopped on a train and ran away from my life, to make the story short I met a woman the end of that year, she rescued me from being homeless and she's been my girlfriend for 8 yrs now.She's treated me like crap but also like an angel, theres been days she's beaten me up and days she caressed me and even times she cheated on me and other times she's been the sweetest person I know, she even lit the christmas tree on fire on christmas eve and smashed all the gifts then somehow we ended up kissing and making up,She's an alcoholic at times but I love her so much I stayed and stuck through it all, I love her more then anyone will ever imagine, I lost my first wife and daughter to a tragic event and feel like if I mess this one up I will have failed my wife and daughter theres more to it then just that but anyway everynight I pray that god will guide me through it all each and every step of the way.I know he carries me but sometimes I feel like picking up the wine bottle and pulling the trigger, Its been rough and Im too much of a gentlemen to leave her.I always dream of finding romance but at the end of the day all I find is a broken Gentlemen sipping wine and playing Michael Bolton and various romantic records till I pass out.Some nights I just lay in bed watching romantic movies on laser disc drinking wine and crying myself to sleep praying that my life will change.The last 7 yrs its been a mess and ive come to realize how blessed I really am.God has given me the gift of life and thats more then I could ever ask for.I love this song.
God helps those who help themselves. You can't drown your demons, they know how to swim. So, don't keep doing the same thing over and over and hoping for a different outcome. Make a good plan, stick to it and climb up and out of this dysfunctional toxic relationship and improve yourself. Only when you're happy and settled with yourself can it work with someone else ...
Hmm...half a lie though. Phil Buckle (lead guitarist) did helped write another John Farnham's "Burn For You". The two songs do share some similarities though.
Jack started out as John Farnham’s guitarist, I guess it’s true, the longer you hang out with someone the more you become like them, in this case sound like them 😂
I can't believe how much he sounds like John Farnham. I saw Farnham live late 80's with Jack Johnson. It sounded like 2 Farnhams. One doing lead vocals and one doing harmonies.
Still love this song in 2023. What a beautiful voice.
Forgot about southern sons until recommended by yt. Takes me back to the 90s, oh to be young again ❤❤
Mandella John Farnham

The bridge in the song is brilliant. Great example of early 90s Aussie dominance. The best period of Australian music.

It reminds me of the good old days , Im from Singapore
The good ol' days for sure. 🇦🇺
Yes, simpler times, great music & life was worth living.
Say goosbye indecent obssession lol
The time when rock bands use to composed heart touching music ........YOU HAVE TO STOP WHAT YOUR DOING & LISTEN.... THAT'S THE MAGIC....
This song, always makes me cry... it's a bittersweet feeling.
I love a man I cannot and must not love... 😢
#MyEuphoriaCSM
There has always been a 'Farnhamesque' tone to his voice. Awesome voice...and not bad on the eye either!!
He was also a backup singer for Johnny Farnham and on his record label.
Was about to write the same comment. Great voice.
Dont know why but this song just sends shivers down my spine. It's like a long hug I've been longing for all my life
Never know it was Southern Sons who sang this one until RUclips recommends this video to me. Such a sweet song.
I don’t understand your comment jack jones voice is distinctive and recognisable
I thought the one who sang this song is John Farnham hehe
A crushingly beautiful song
As a child my mum used to put me to sleep to this gentle song.
Epic Aussie music.
Love song of a bygone aussie era.
Very nostalgic.
Amazing is an understatement.
These aussie dudes were the real deal.
Talented true artists.
Love old school romantic aussie ballads!!!!!!!!!
Ain't bygone man. Just disrupted by America.

They seemed perfect for one another. I've been wondering why their marriage was short lived.
I'm glad you left her alone. That was thoughtful.

The morning sunlight, moves gently on our bed
Sounds of distant traffic, float into my head
Eyes slowly open and words won't be enough
But what is left unspoken burns softly in your touch
(Chorus)
So hold me in your arms
Hold me in your arms
So my love, hold me in your arms
Time moves without us, this room will be untouched
We're safe beneath the truth now
Both safe within this love
(Repeat Chorus)
And oh the heart in me
Feels more than you can see
I can't get close enough
Every single day, is ours to feel this way
I can't get close enough, never close enough ...
i miss southern sons a lot and Jack Jones..his angelic voice makes me believe in love again..thank for this kind of music..wanna see you perform and sing again❤
This is him recently singing again with Virgil Donati, under his real name, still amazing!

Another Southern Sons song that I absolutely love!!
The Most Amazing Voice!
This song is a masterpiece
I love Southern Sons during my high school years. It’s been ages but I still do love them and listen to thier songs every now and then.
It's 2023 and I still love listening to this beautiful song.
2024
Love this song!! Had it play at my wedding! Such an amazing Aussie vocalist!!
Actually, he was born in Manhattan,. He didn't move to Australia until he was 10.
Oh my god! Have not heard Southern Sons for ages!!!
An angels voice... more music please
Love this song. Brings back great memories of 1990 at high school in caloundra in Queensland

Beautiful voice, beautiful hair 💜🎵🎶
Having flash backs to the 80s miss that era seems so long ago now.
Perfect to lalo kapag nasa background ng show ni Papa Jackson kasabay ng napakalungkot na kwento ng caller :(
Would love to see this group reform.. Amazing talent and Phil Buckle great song writer. He wrote some of John Farnham songs as well

To Kayleigh,I know how much you loved this song;gone 12 years now
:[-(
love this song, gonna sing this to someone I love 😘
Mark Pooley MD @ LG73 in Vancouver broke this song in Canada in 1991, nobody followed suit, thank God for Marks Golden ears.
saw them live 30 odd years ago, how time flies.
He’s giving me a bit of Eric Martin (Mr. Big) vibe in his prime. And yes, John Farnham from prev comment :)
They weren't a one hit wonder if I remember back all those years lol hearts in danger was bigger than this one
Lots of hits...
Always and ever.
Hold me in your arms.
Waiting for that train.
You were there.
Lead me to water.
Heart in danger.
Plus loads of others that weren't released as singles.
Sure does sound like John Farnham. Beautiful song
