@@WithoutUHere the 80s were the best years of my life. Back then people didn't take life too seriously, non obsessing about their looks but life was for a living with plenty of innocent fun. Carlisle was truly beautiful and she sang so beautifully.
I loved this song back in the day and I love it even more in 2024!!im a huge Beatles fan and I was surprised to find out that it was a George Harrison guitar solo,I never knew,I would love to hear the story of how that came about!!!❤
Rick Nowels one of the songwriters thought it would be cool with some great guitar player to do a slide guitar solo on the song. Belinda had met George sometime before and asked him. He said he loved to come and play on the song. I have heard or read this somewhere.
Even a metalhead needs something easy to listening every now and then! _a voice whispering in your ear that tells you how beautiful life can be!_ I also was big into Metal at that time; Metallica, Manowar, Suicidal Tendencies, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Motörhead, Slayer, Megadeath, Mötley Crüe, Anthrax, Panthera, Kiss, Guns'n'Roses, Whitesnake But if you were looking for a girlfriend at the time or weren't _allergic_ to a relationship, it was helpful if you didn't just stay in the mosh pit musically. Still listening to Metal from time to time, but my taste in music has changed and now I'm more into Rockmusic in general.
When I first met my husband in march 2006, I used sing this to him all the time. In May 2006 he went down on one knee and asked me to grow old together with him, we got married and had our little boy in 2010, and 16 years later I still sing this to him. Seen Belinda Carlisle here in Ireland last week. She is a class act ❤️🫂
Die Musik der 80 und 90 sind zeitlos und immer gut anzuhören da fühlt man sich zurückversetzt in seine jugendzeit😊. Ob Belinda, Susanna, Shania, zeitlose Schönheiten deren Musik niemals vergeht. Ich bin froh in dieser Zeit groß geworden zu sein.
I’m a Japanese. This is one of my favorite tunes of Belinda. When I listen these tune, I can’t stop remembering days I was young. This song is still brighting despite of more than 30 years has passed.
Totally. Apparently it's music and smell that takes us to light bulb memories. I'm also amazed how music remains when the rest of the brain starts to fail. I've always thought, studying neuroscience, that music holds the key.
You know, when you look back on the major musical influences in the 80s, like Duran Duran, The Smiths, Queen, Blondie, Tears For Fears, Dire Straits, A-Ha, Roxette, The Police, and many more, I think Belinda is right up there with the best. Absolutely brilliant 💚
@@Minime163 Yes really seems like yesterday, time goes so quick!! I love the song and Amazing Belinda ❤️ so timeless..a masterpiece forever.. best 80's the best era ever In time..
it's not underrated at all! it's very famous. Belinda C. was my first foreign artist when I was a child. She's known worldwide. I found the cassette with her songs at my aunt's house one day and me and my sister fell in love with her songs right away. She's not underrated. To me she's a LEGEND and I'm 39 (from Poland) - also a legend :D 'cause of my age... ;)
My best singing star Belinda Carlisle, Leave a Light On Me is one of your best songs to me. I love watching this song of you so often, even in my childhood and my teenage. Your songs are leaving a light on me Belinda.
She was a huge part of my life back then,my girlfriend was the spitting image of her in this video...she was at her peak here and one of the most beautiful women ever to walk the earth at this point. Sadly my girlfriend has now passed away but Belindas music will always take me back to the happiest time of my life. She doesnt get the credit she deserves. A very very special lady and artist. X
She is not only a groundbreaking Go-GO, or a talented singer that gave us hits throughout the entire decade of the 80s, but she is the most beautiful rock star in Rock and Roll History!
It amazes me how many people still don't know it's former Beatle George Harrison on the guitar in this song. One of the greatest guitarists who ever lived
Now, relationships are too much about proving how you're a separate individual rather than meeting each other's needs. This is song about giving to each other. And that's the way it should be.
Baz Maz I think it's about two individuals that can take care of themselves in such a way that they can take care of each other. It's better to love each other more than you need each other but I catch your drift.
Saw Belinda in October 2019 at Manchester Academy for the Runaway Horses 30th Anniversary Tour. When she sang Leave A Light On the audience joined in from start to finish, word for word.
Like all the others, this Belinda Carlisle song has an awesome melody that anyone can rock to. Even my kitten gets close to the computer screen when it's playing. Belinda is an absolute treasure. The '80s went out with a real bang. This hit the charts in October, 1989 and ran for 18 weeks.
one of the best things about 50 years old,is the fact that i lived my teenage years in th 80's that is priceless and Iam grateful !!!
Yep I'm 50 this year, I feel so privileged to of grown up in the 80's 👌👌🙌
Only in my early 40's but loved the pop music from the mid to late 80's oh how much simpler life was back then!
Am 20 this year 😃😃😃😃😃😃
Yeah, I'm 47 this year, and this is all my childhood. 80's were the best years of my life

Not many female singers have anything on her period
I agree she is my favorite and childhood crush. Most 80s singers had huge talent.
You got that right 👍
De acuerdo. Una de las cantantes más hermosas que hubo en su época. Y aún sigue siendo bella..
Different target audience nowadays - Belinda is NOT where the money IS

Hi Mr Google
This video never gets old. Belinda Carlisle looks and sounds terrific, plus, a guitar solo from George Harrison! A true classic.
I really enjoyed the colorfulness of this video.
George Harrison..wow..never knew he played on this track..
George said it was the best slide solo he ever performed.
Ty for the Info!!😂
Wow! So so so contemporary.
I listen to this song, I close my eyes... and I am a child again, it's summer, I am happy, it's wonderful. That's a wonderful feeling
One of the soundtracks of my youth!!!!!! 80’s❤❤❤❤❤
Those were the times my friend....

The 80´s wasn't a decade, it was an emotion. The iconic voices of some female singers are just... unforgettable.
Still 80s were the Best!

... And you know some deranged people these days will swear she was born male just because she has a square, strong jaw and chin 🙄
Why this song didn’t go #1 just baffles me, it’s an absolutely wonderful song, that I love it as much today as back when it was first released 🥰
I reckon this song and video by Belinda was inspired by the song by The Tripets - You don't have tp go home tonight.
@@yeahrightgraphics4621 Agreed 💯% 👍🏻
Holy crepe!
I forgot about this one!
I've always like HIAPOE, I Get Weak, and Mad About You.

i was a metalhead back in 1989..but this woman was rocking my world..her voice, her looks, everything clicked.
I know exactly what you mean
I was born in 89 and grew up loving this song 😂🤘🏻
Hottie and the tune is catchy too.
Even a metalhead needs something easy to listening every now and then! _a voice whispering in your ear that tells you how beautiful life can be!_
I also was big into Metal at that time;
Metallica, Manowar, Suicidal Tendencies, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Motörhead, Slayer, Megadeath, Mötley Crüe, Anthrax, Panthera, Kiss, Guns'n'Roses, Whitesnake
But if you were looking for a girlfriend at the time or weren't _allergic_ to a relationship, it was helpful if you didn't just stay in the mosh pit musically.
Still listening to Metal from time to time, but my taste in music has changed and now I'm more into Rockmusic in general.
Same! Bit of a guilty pleasure amongst all the Pantera, Machine Head and Metallica!

YOUR NOT THE ONLY ONE.
Forgot about this one; great song.
Saw Belinda sing this live tonight. Such a great performer and voice as strong as ever at 64 years old.
Were you at Cambridge as well? Awesome gig.
I saw her in Nottingham and Sheffield. Two fantastic shows
So cool. Never saw her live, but always felt she was a true talent, who would sound wonderful in person.
Very cool!!!
Would you still?, you know. 😄
This song never gets old.
we do though.

Music never gets old. Just a little dusty!
For me it's brand new. Never heard of it before.
Perfect track i love
Beautiful Belinda. Great song!
I've had a raging crush on this insanely gorgeous lady since 1987 and I don't think that will ever change. She's so 😍😍😍😍
I just heard this song yesterday for the first time at 46 years old.
I've only played it 100 times since. ❤️
Me like Bolinda😍🥰🤩
Happy you found it!
I’m sure you know lots wonderful songs that I don’t know!

Blimey!! All her songs are brilliant
Lol, where were you hiding back in the day 😮
Did you live in a underworld bunker because this song was played over and over back in the late 80s early 90s?? Anyways glad you found it😊
Amazing song by Belinda.. I'm so glad because she invited George Harrison for this unique solo part.

Certainly was a good 80s song like some of the best artists that have passed from the 80s.
Mine too❤
Same !
This song only works on romantic people. That's why I like it, then when it was released, now all these years later; romance never dies.
I agree. Beautiful tune and timeless melody.
We did not know how good she was then, but today she eclipses most of the singer's that came after her.
Beautiful woman, beautiful song, beautiful car from a beautiful decade. Sadly, we will never have this again.

I also thought that they should have featured George in the video. This was his final guest appearance in a song.

Now, relationships are too much about proving how you're a separate individual rather than meeting each other's needs. This is song about giving to each other. And that's the way it should be.
