@classicalretroback INNOCENT? I remember how controversial the 80s songs were. Many churches called rock music devil-inspired, even if it was Christian .
@sonyafox3271 INCORRECT. Her first crossover hits came in 1985 from Unguarded. “Love will Find A Way” became her highest charting song that year (Top 20 on Billboards secular chart) and held that record until 1991 .
@Amy Grant Amy l remember your baby baby that was wicked tune back when l was a teenager in the early 90s you should make a come back there sometimes play your music on uk England radio 2 on sounds of the 90s
One of the first Christian tapes I was given. I remember this song and album fondly. Listening to these old songs actually makes my heart hurt wishing for simpler days when life was less complicated.
She was/is the most exquisite beauty. I was 17 years old in 1987--recently moved across country by my parents and desperately alone. This song resonated. When I saw her in Milwaukee in 2023, this was the opening song as she came onto stage...I broke down in tears.
I grew up listening to Amy's music. She was a good role model at the time, and probably a big reason why I chose to make the right choices while all my friends weren't.
Robin Turner, I think you missed 4skins’ point. I think he meant songs that were sentimental, meaningful, and innocent. Today’s singers lack the emotion in their songs. At least I think that’s what he meant. 🤷🏻♂️
satan has buggered up most of our young ones with toxins in the brain of all kinds, shapes, ways and forms. We must fix things or tap into the music from parallel universes. Imagine more Amy Grant songs out there?
@@SuperPutzPutz I had to read your comment twice because I thought you were replying to someone's screen name of "Satan Has Buggered Up" - I might have to file that away for an alternate identity! Anyway, Amy (Ms. Grant) has several christian/pop songs that are worth a listen that'll drive Satan's buggery out of your world for at least 3:30 per song! Try "I Love You" and work your way around to "Next Time I Fall" with Peter Cetera... all or most are great tunes!
this is a tune man l remember amy grant stuff and music flipping back in the early and mid 90s that baby baby song and stuff l dint even here this tune stay till about 2 years ago
@sebastianwelcome2080 STAY For Awhile was released 1986. It didn’t get any play outside the Christian radio stations & some adult contemporary stations. Top 40 radio ignored it
Amy Grant is without a doubt one of the most beautiful, genuine people on earth. I have seen her in concert twice and adored every moment. She pours her soul into everything she performs. This song is one of my favorites that doesn't get enough recognition. Her music is so cleanly produced. It gets inside you. Amy, you're the best!
I don't think many people understand how remarkable the music production on this track is! Many think her voice (which is exceptional*) is the main-stay...but the production, downmixing, compression, and composition is a beast!!!! Dang!!!
One of those absolute writing-and-production classics of the mid-80s that didn't make it onto the supermarket playlists - you won't hear this today unless you seek it out. I had never seen the video before now, but it's absolutely brilliant artistic work as well. The main part of the song is so cheery, but the beginning and the end are so dark, and the videography really captures that... intense stuff. Written by Michael W. Smith & Wayne Kirkpatrick, with a spellbinding performance by Amy.
This and several other songs of hers brought me a lot of peace during desert storm. And yes, the backup vocals are Richard Page: the lead singer for Mr. Mister.
I’m sitting on my couch with my precious 16-year-old longhair dachshund named Edie (Eee-Dee, not Eddie). She is dying from heart disease and renal failure. We’ve made the incredibly painful decision to end her misery tomorrow afternoon. Until then, we are spending as much time as possible with her, doing her favorite things. She loves sitting in our laps, and as she sat with me just now, the lyrics to this song came to me and I knew I had to share them with her. I thank God for all the beauty and joy she has brought into the life of my family. She’s a beloved member of our family, and she’s a better soul than most humans I know. I am the most flawed and backsliding Christian ever, but I believe my Edie will go to Heaven as she crosses the Rainbow Bridge tomorrow afternoon. Thank you, Amy Grant, for creating this little gem of a song that has helped me smile through my tears. God bless.❤️
I just absolutely love this song!!!!! It just shows how precious time is and we should cherish good moments w the people we have in our lives....she is so pretty and I love her voice....The ending of the song hits me in the gut....As the teenager in the 80s... her songs have always touched me and encouraged me to be strong in my darkest times...
❤ Makes me cry if honest. 😢Takes me back to the 80s were life yes had it's issues and problems but it was a much simpler times and family ❤and great song's like this ❤ Michael w. Smith as well ❤😊
i know this song is considered 'old', and im not a major amy grant fan, but i love this song. My mom listened to her all the time when i was little, so she seems like a part of me.
it is unique how this song and many of Amy Grant's songs seem to reach out to the moments in our life like a snapshot. For me, Amy was the true first Christian Contemporary Artist singer I heard...and I was moved by the song I heard. And after all these years, though I didn't listen to much of her "Pop" stuff...(yet how could you not hear it being played everywhere)...the words to her songs are moving, uniquely hers, artfully portrayed through her talent and wonderful voice. A beautiful voice from the past: The 80's and 90's.
I used to hear this song at night when I was a kid on the christian station . Reminded me of an older girl I had a crush on . Could only listen to gospel and christian music as a kid , nice memories .
This is so weird how much I cant stop listening to this old song!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAHHHAHH! oh lord whats happening to me? Naw I have always loved AG I just forgot about you! Its been like probley over 20 years since I listend to ya! And Im only 34 years old so that was like when I was 12 whoa I love this song. My parents made me go to the castle in Charlevoix MI to see you on yer lead me on tour I am so glad I did now Cause I realized your one of the best musicians ever. Peace out Amy.
This song never fails to give me chills.....the lyrics are just so true and somewhat sad......we all should really relish the moment we r in....,.Ive always been a fan of Amy Grant.....she’s naturally beautiful, true singer w a lovely emotional voice and her songs have helped me through my sad and happy times of my life.... this song is always on replay
Wow the times gone bye! I've always loved this song!!! Blessings to all her fans. She helped me be a better Christian with her wonderful God loving music.
"Just the way it used to be..." Truer words never spoken in this day and age to those of us who remember how it was. A beautiful and haunting song indeed.
I saw her on Good Morning America recently after she had emergency heart surgery. She even showed the foot-long scar on her chest where doctors had to cut her open. That's some major surgery ! Thank God she made it.
I had the extremely delightful pleasure of meeting Amy around this time and had seen her a few times in concert- as well as a few times since- and she was genuinely such a wonderful person. So friendly and so strikingly beautiful! This song just oozes happiness and warmth just like she does!
Won't you, won't you? Long time since I've seen you smile But when I close my eyes I remember, hmm You were no more than a child But then so was I, young and tender Time carries on I guess it always will Deep inside my heart time stands still Stay for a while Well, it's good to see your smile And I love the company Stay for a while And remember the days gone by For a moment it can seem Just the way it used to be Snowfalls, phone calls, broken hearts Clear summer days, warm and lazy, yeah Long walks, long talks after dark We felt we'd never forget, now it's hazy Time takes its toll And time alters our youth But it would be nice to spend some time with you Oh, stay for a while Well, it's good to see your smile And I love the company (Whoa) stay for a while And remember the days gone by For a moment it can seem Just the way it used to be Stay (stay) Stay, stay, stay Won't you, won't you? Stay for a while Well, it's good to see your smile And I love the company (Whoa) stay for a while And remember the days gone by Just the way it used to be Stay for a while Oh, it's good to see your smile And I love the company Won't you stay with me for a while And remember the days gone by Just the way it used to be Won't you, won't you?
I'm a metal/hard rocker for life, but I honestly can't think of any rock/metal songs that give me nostalgic chills like this song does. An amazing song through and through till the end of time.
Brilliant and uplifting song. Brilliant and beautiful artist. What a blessing she was back then and what a blessing she is today. Thank you Amy for seeing me through some tough times. How many lost souls has she guided to God? Amy is an angel here on Earth.
I got to work on this video and several others with Amy...she was a class act all the way. She would ask about our families and kids every time we worked together.
Amy G. such a warrior and pioneer of breaking the religious status quo in music and because of no fear and a real heart for music and God she has blessed so many heart that would have never set foot in a church and God has blessed her for it. Thanks A.G.
This song has always reminded me of my 1st boyfriend. So much happened when we were just 16 and 17. Completely heartbreaking. He will always be in my heart even if I never see him. 1986 and 87. 💔CAS.
The harmony is very haunting! It's actually one of the reasons why I love it. Also, the melody in both vocals and the violin are dark. Which is strange but so beautiful. This was probably unintentional. But the song was too good to be let go!
Amy Grant ; I love you my friend... I love all of you’re music so much today , then 38 years ago when I first heard you. You are still as beautiful today !!! I love this song.
Wow -- she looks gorgeous here!! I read she experienced lots of emotional turmoil in the late 1980's after the breakup of her marriage, which the church pointed to her as abandoning her her husband. Amy was also suffering backlash from the church community for going "Pop" in 1991 with the breakout success of "Baby Baby". Oh well, can't have everything. Then of course when she met Vince Gill and got married -- well, more backlash!! But it's nice to see she's kinda come full circle again.
takes me back to my sophomore and junior years of high school... listening to it in 2012 does make think its 1987/1988 all over again... the people loved and lost...
bad ass song that broke the boundarys for the cross over for the next generation of Christian music in the. eightys...never will forget it because I was part of that in my earlier teens...my mom was so religious and so against it...now as an adult Iook back and I feel so glad that happen!
This brings back a lot of memories for me..and it means more to me now than ever. As we’ve all grown up and grown apart from people we loved in the past..
Beautiful song from a beautiful singer. The year 1986 was a memorable year, sophomore in college, Reagan was president, just a nice time. Missed those 1980’s moments.
Marcou muito minha adolescência, ouvíamos aqui na rádio Maranata era incrível até que meu amor mim deu de presente nos meus 18anos um LP lindo que guardo até hoje kkk todo mundo cantávamos mesmo sem saber inglês era uma mistura doida kkk que na minha cabeça era exatamente a canção correta enfim marcou muito minha vida uma época de muitos sonhos e projetos Deus abençoe sua vida Emy linda
While I was a DJ at an Akron Ohio Christian radio station back in the late 80's, this song was on the play list and I loved it as well as a lot of other Amy Grant songs...never knew there was a video..........thanks so much for the share! Godspeed!
Yes Richard Page who Chicago asked to replace Peter Cetera when he left in 1985. Of course, Peter and Amy sang the #1 hit "Next Time We Fall" written by the late Bobby Caldwell.
Amy is amazing. This is when she opened up the door to the world and connected with what was deep inherent with human nature. To need and be needed. God bless.
I’ve seen Amy Grant in concert 4 times and have thought of her as one of my favorites. Her music helped me through my young teenage years, through high school.
to serina dudley you seen her 4 times in concert no way l how long ago was that l thought she was in hiding in the 21st century she has done some good older songs from uk England
First heard "Stay for A While" back in winter 1988 (a young 16 year old) who'd just met my first love... it's funny how profound 2 teenagers thought the lyrics were back in 1988 as 16 year olds in puppy love... and thinking back to that time today in 2015... really drives the message home louder than ever... and just like the lyrics... remembering the days gone by... missing the smile... "for a moment it can seem just the way it used to be."
Who misses the innocent songs of the 80’s.
I missed the 80's so much which was a great part of my childhood.😪😇❤️
There is just something unique about that eighties’ sound
I do!!! Please take me back to the 80's!!!!! ❤
Me me me me. I want to go back.
@classicalretroback INNOCENT? I remember how controversial the 80s songs were. Many churches called rock music devil-inspired, even if it was Christian
.
Deep, spooky, mysterious, to the core, pure, innocent and longing love! One of the best, if not the best, Amy Grant song!
The first Amy Grant song I ever heard. Startling.
@@bostonseeker That’s because, it was her first cross over hit and, it got played on the pop radio stations!

You nailed it, much better times back in the day, mostly looney tunes you see today, unbelievable misfits 😊❤

yea she was in concert only last year this is one of my favourite classic of hers to a like the old syth keyboard in background
My sister favorite song and we played it at her funeral 😢. I miss you Diana ❤❤❤

Dios te bendiga, amigo
me too!!
I grew up listening to amy grant she had very music back then but talented singer 👩🎤 ❤❤❤
Who needs today's pop junk when you have Amy Grant?
Today's hip hop is awful .crime spreading .we can redo the past and call it present 😅
Where in God's good name did music like this ever go to?????
44skins every generation has their own music. It just gets reinvented with the same notes and scales.

It sounds better coming off the speakers of my HP Stream Notebook than it did off my cassette stereos.
Saw her twice as well. 1987 for the Lead Me On tour and 1989 or 1990 @ Pacific Amphitheatre & The Forum (had floor seats for the latter show).
@@SuperPutzPutz I couldn't agree more. I ended up getting the CD in 1987 because I wore my tape out.

Won't you, won't you?
Long time since I've seen you smile
But when I close my eyes I remember, hmm
You were no more than a child
But then so was I, young and tender
Time carries on
I guess it always will
Deep inside my heart time stands still
Stay for a while
Well, it's good to see your smile
And I love the company
Stay for a while
And remember the days gone by
For a moment it can seem
Just the way it used to be
Snowfalls, phone calls, broken hearts
Clear summer days, warm and lazy, yeah
Long walks, long talks after dark
We felt we'd never forget, now it's hazy
Time takes its toll
And time alters our youth
But it would be nice to spend some time with you
Oh, stay for a while
Well, it's good to see your smile
And I love the company

And remember the days gone by

Stay (stay)

Won't you, won't you?

Love this so much
OMG I’m five again!!! I was obsessed with Amy Grant.
She still ministers to me with every song, as she did 30 years ago.

bad ass song that broke the boundarys for the cross over for the next generation of Christian music in the. eightys...never will forget it because I was part of that in my earlier teens...my mom was so religious and so against it...now as an adult Iook back and I feel so glad that happen!
Anotha Classic By Amy Grant!!!! Love It.❤️❤️❤️❤️
Man, those words - ring true.
This brings back a lot of memories for me..and it means more to me now than ever. As we’ve all grown up and grown apart from people we loved in the past..
we were so young and tender.......!!! Oh, How the years go bye .....!
One of my favorite songs and videos, ever! Amy is such a genuine person...such a genuine artist...such a genuine soul.
Beautiful song from a beautiful singer. The year 1986 was a memorable year, sophomore in college, Reagan was president, just a nice time. Missed those 1980’s moments.
Marcou muito minha adolescência, ouvíamos aqui na rádio Maranata era incrível até que meu amor mim deu de presente nos meus 18anos um LP lindo que guardo até hoje kkk todo mundo cantávamos mesmo sem saber inglês era uma mistura doida kkk que na minha cabeça era exatamente a canção correta enfim marcou muito minha vida uma época de muitos sonhos e projetos Deus abençoe sua vida Emy linda
While I was a DJ at an Akron Ohio Christian radio station back in the late 80's, this song was on the play list and I loved it as well as a lot of other Amy Grant songs...never knew there was a video..........thanks so much for the share! Godspeed!
Lead singer from the group Mister Mister helped her produce this song. He sings background vocals and plays the erie lead guitar.
yea no way l dint know that no wonder it sounds so good
Yes Richard Page who Chicago asked to replace Peter Cetera when he left in 1985. Of course, Peter and Amy sang the #1 hit "Next Time We Fall" written by the late Bobby Caldwell.
Production by Brown Bannister (amazing talent, yet not well-known to fans in general).
Amy Grant awsome artists. beautiful songs that Minster my heart ,love you amy ...

A Timeless Masterpiece
1986...what a formative year for so many of us out there...anyway, you gotta love Richard Page on this tune helping out on BV's
I still feel the same way today
I Love This Amy Grant 1986 Music Video, "Stay For A While," Which Became The #1 Christian Hit In America.
Amy is amazing. This is when she opened up the door to the world and connected with what was deep inherent with human nature. To need and be needed. God bless.
Wow...all of a sudden I am back in my 20's again! I remember this video very well. Just love Amy. Peace be with all who watch this.
One of Amy's BEST!!!🙌❤
Hands down
Amy is the best
I’ve seen Amy Grant in concert 4 times and have thought of her as one of my favorites. Her music helped me through my young teenage years, through high school.
to serina dudley you seen her 4 times in concert no way l how long ago was that l thought she was in hiding in the 21st century she has done some good older songs from uk England
Richard Page of mr mister adds some magic as the background vocalist
yea you serious he is singing back background vocals is it that with him going woe e woe wo l dint know that
I'm in love with Amy Grant!
I always was.....
First heard "Stay for A While" back in winter 1988 (a young 16 year old) who'd just met my first love... it's funny how profound 2 teenagers thought the lyrics were back in 1988 as 16 year olds in puppy love... and thinking back to that time today in 2015... really drives the message home louder than ever... and just like the lyrics... remembering the days gone by... missing the smile... "for a moment it can seem just the way it used to be."
+ryanarcuri my friend you said a mouth full
same here same age Great memories
same her and i was 12. great song!
Hopefully Amy did not encourage you to fornicate. She was a spokeswoman for Satan. This whole song is saying to go out and godless sex.
@@erikjager4704 It worked. I fornicated over and over. Thanks Amy!
Magnific song and fantastic core, blessings for all.
This was a great track to open the 1986 collection album with. I love the production. The fat bass sound💯
