I'm a die hard country fan, 64 years old and a fan from age 7, but when I heard the Mavericks, I was blown away. I could not stop listening to them, got all of their CDs, and still want more. I love the mixture of country with the Latino sound. Hey, Johny Cash had horns on one of his records, and Bob Wills had a 16 piece band with lots of horns, so its not so unheard of.
I remember on Friday July 21, of 95 it was my 11 Birthday. I remember I was upstairs in my room at Mom and Dad's and that afternoon I saw this video on CMT.
They're still great, but I miss Nick Kane... Jesse is good but few players can rival Nick. Reason for him going away is pretty messed up. Google it. It's a short but good read!
I was laid-up in Frankfurt Germany nursing a self inflicted sore head when i first heard this on 'American Forces Radio'.Must be 25 years ago now and still love it
I also remember that Iowa's Best Country Kix 101 radio played this song back in the Summer of 95. The lead singer Raul Malo sings and sounds like Roy Obison. I miss The Mavericks. Whatever happened 2 them?
A melody that stays in your head. I only heard this a couple of times when it came out. Yet for years and years I’ve whistled it when the weather is changing at work. A delight to hear it again in it’s full glory.
Love this version. Guitarist makes such a difference. Don't get me wrong, today's, Eddie Perez is great and I love his playing, but to me, this guitarist made the song.
I love, love, love the Mavericks. Raul has a voice like none other. I loved Robert Reynolds but he was fired‐--- sad, they were a great group and the only one that is as great now is Midland, for me at least. I don't mind the change in the musicians as Raul has the voice and somehow, it always works if he's in it! 💕 💋 🌹 rosita
@@rositachadronet6187 I think there may still be legal stuff (i.e., rights, ownership, residuals, etc.) going on between the Mavericks and Robert Reynolds. I say this, as he has never been replaced and Ed Friedland has been listed as the "touring bassist" for the past 9 years.
@@michaelquillen2679 I think Robert Reynolds, (sadly) passed away. I don't remember the song, but Raul was singing and all of a sudden turned to Robert Reynolds and said, "Get your wife out here!" and out came a young Trisha Yearwood, kissed and hugged Robert and began to sing with Raul. I loved it when they had impromptu moments and I loved Trisha then--- not so much now. I don't think Robert was the same, even though he had a drug problem, when she divorced him and got with Garth Brooks. I am almost sure that he remarried but it wasn't like with Trisha.
This song was always a big part of my life! So much emotion and everything I have lived thru.. like so many others!! Yet we find the strength to move on!!
Still listening in 2024... I still have the cassette somewhere (I think) 😄 Yes, I'm old. Speaking of old, those twins remind me of The Shining. 😆 Hmmm, if this song came out in 1995, they're almost 40 now. Heck, I'm almost 50.😀
One of my favorite songs of theirs that brings back some great memories for me. I used to hear this on the radio a lot throughout the mid 90's. Miss the days when bands with this kind of sound could get on country radio.
Mavericks are what Country music should be, Dwight Yoakam would back it up. Real Mans country. And that turns Women on. Bakersfield forever. Buck Owens Forever.
This song reminds me of how I feel inside since my wife left me for a younger and richer guy. Perhaps The Mavericks felt my pain and this song is what they came up with.
This is the music business... the most evil business (argueably) that is, has been, and ever shall be. No one knows what truly ended the Mavericks run, but my guess is, it was all about popularity.
Fantastic. I've seen Mavericks , a couple of months ago in Vancouver. They are amazing and Raul Malo........I don't know how many of so called rock or pop stars can do what this guys does with his voice. Just amazing. I love you guys. Music for the soul.
I saw the Mavs in Glasgow, Scotland a couple of times in the late 90s: they were absolutely superb, highly entertaining, musical. These guys ought to be millionaires.
I'm really glad I found this vid. I haven't heard this song since I was probably still in middle school or elementary school and I never forgot it. I always liked it. Hmm...why didn't I search for this before? >.>
Here comes the night as dark as my soul One of the Raul and the Mavericks very best and that really is saying something.Raul's voice is made in heaven.Great band
Thanks for posting-- this goes straight into my playlists. Only got into him recently by accident -wished I had discovered him earlier- What can this guy NOT sing well?
@loverofcountry506070 I loved their mixture of old country and old rock. Raul's spannish flavored voice, Pete's cutting edge drumming, and the guitar work of Nick and Raul playing harmony. One thing that made the Mavericks sound was, since they did not have a steel guitar player, the use of horns, piano, and electric guitar two - part harmony in the place of the fiddle and steel guitar.
This song is so well written it's just amazing. The production and performance are right on the mark. And for pity's sake, the video has a Dano Longhorn doubleneck. What's not to love?
I remember buying my first Mavericks album back in... '91, maybe? And driving around, listening, thinking "This guy can sound like Orbison, like Dean Martin, like Elvis, like Dwight Yoakam, and still sound entirely like himself." I knew instantly he was one in a million. One in ten million. The best voice of his generation.
Your love's a heartache That's torn me apart You've watched my heart break Right from the start You took everything you wanted And now that you are gone (Chorus 1) Here comes the rain Falling down on me I'm showered in pain Nothing remains Of what used to be
@loverofcountry506070 I too have "fallen" for their style and talent, lovely. Only saw and heard of them the first time here on RUclips about a month ago...
Your love's a heartache That's torn me apart You've watched my heart break Right from the start You took everything you wanted And now that you are gone Here comes the rain Falling down on me I'm showered in pain Nothing remains Of what used to be Here comes the night Dark as my soul There's no end in sight No shining light No love to hold Here comes the rain I must have been dreaming I must have been blind But I never thought you Could be so unkind Tomorrow I'll forget you But I can't forget you now Here comes the rain Falling down on me I'm showered in pain Nothing remains Of what used to be Here comes the night Dark as my soul There's no end in sight No shining light No love to hold Here comes the rain Here comes the rain Falling down on me I'm showered in pain Nothing remains Of what used to be Here comes the night Dark as my soul There's no end in sight No shining light No love to hold Here comes the rain
(Chorus 2) Here comes the night Dark as my soul There's no end in sight No shining light No love to hold Here comes the rain I must have been dreaming I must have been blind But I never thought you Could be so unkind Tomorrow I'll forget you But I can't forget you now
This is terrific to do a rumba to, I've danced it many times to the record, next Sat28th Feb they are coming here to Glasgow- pity it won't be a dance hall!
+Jay Igaboo ... and they were terrific! They're a really tight band no stray notes AT ALL in the entire performance. I need to keep my ear to the ground for their next gig here.
Reminds me of Heartaches by The Numbers & Lonesome Me. Darkest souls ever to be night. Ever to be destitute on lonely street. Street nice lovely of ladies swaying to the music. love is like heaven to hold.
As a rule, country music labels, country music radio and country music fans fear change. Heck, a lot of them still haven't gotten over General Lee's surrender in 1865, so God forbid anybody breaks out a trumpet to interfere with their twang.
Dig the doubleneck Danelectro Longhorn being played by former Mavericks guitarist Nick Kane in this vid. Not to mentioned the Vox Wyman Bass that Robert Reynolds is rocking.
If you're still listening to this oldie but goodie today, you know good music.
Always listening to the Mavericks
Right back at cha!
I'm a die hard country fan, 64 years old and a fan from age 7, but when I heard the Mavericks, I was blown away. I could not stop listening to them, got all of their CDs, and still want more.

I remember hearing this song back in the Summer of 95 and this video was on CMT back in Summer of 95.
What summer was it btw ?
Very underrated band the Mavericks are. Great band from a great era.
I remember on Friday July 21, of 95 it was my 11 Birthday. I remember I was upstairs in my room at Mom and Dad's and that afternoon I saw this video on CMT.
Saw these cats live many moons ago. Hands down best, tightest band I've seen.
He has a distinct voice!! Everyone now sounds like everyone else!
90s country is still so much better than today's country.
Wenn ich Raul höre bin ich im 7.Himmel
One of their best songs, in my opinion.
Oh God I miss the Mavericks...and the 90's country.
They're good
Omg me too. ❤️
@Steve Cooper yes they are
They're still great, but I miss Nick Kane...
Jesse is good but few players can rival Nick. Reason for him going away is pretty messed up. Google it. It's a short but good read!
Such a tight, awesome band. Real musicians. Incredible lyrics in all their songs.
90s was the best decade in county
Raul Malo, beautiful voice & Mavericks as a band is great! One of my favorites!🎶🎼🎸❤️ Love all their songs!
I think Rayl Malo was simply thebest.
And I met him and told him so.
Raul...
Incredible voice!!!❤❤❤
I was laid-up in Frankfurt Germany nursing a self inflicted sore head when i first heard this on 'American Forces Radio'.Must be 25 years ago now and still love it

They are still touring!❤
Probably my all time favourite song from the Mavericks. Never tire of hearing it. Very haunting melody.

Hmmm, if this song came out in 1995, they're almost 40 now.
Heck, I'm almost 50.😀
love the Mavericks and I usually wake up listening to them. Eternal gratitude ❤️
The mavericks one of the best bands I was introduced to in the late 90's such a great band .
One of my favorite songs of theirs that brings back some great memories for me. I used to hear this on the radio a lot throughout the mid 90's. Miss the days when bands with this kind of sound could get on country radio.
If country had an official alternative genre. Itd be them. They stick out way above anythinf that came out at that time in the 90's. Amazing stuff.
This song helped me through a very difficult time in my life.
Mavericks are what Country music should be, Dwight Yoakam would back it up. Real Mans country. And that turns Women on. Bakersfield forever. Buck Owens Forever.
Credit to the drummer exstraordinary....A good drummer-a good band--
This song reminds me of how I feel inside since my wife left me for a younger and richer guy. Perhaps The Mavericks felt my pain and this song is what they came up with.
I wish you genuine peace of mind.
I love The Mavericks! So underrated!
Aron, I think The Mavericks are under-appreciated, not under rated. We love them.
Totally agree! 😀👍
Definitely!! Love to hear them. .they are addictive!! Love Raul Malo voice!
Aron Kelley omg agreed my favorite
This is the music business... the most evil business (argueably) that is, has been, and ever shall be. No one knows what truly ended the Mavericks run, but my guess is, it was all about popularity.
One of a Kind Song by a One of a Kind Band. They Rock!
Raul gives me goosebumps when he sings love him x
If I could have sex with a voice...
This song needed the 12 string. Sends it over the top
Fantastic. I've seen Mavericks , a couple of months ago in Vancouver. They are amazing and Raul Malo........I don't know how many of so called rock or pop stars can do what this guys does with his voice. Just amazing. I love you guys. Music for the soul.
My all time favorite. Raul wrote it and it is killer.
I saw the Mavs in Glasgow, Scotland a couple of times in the late 90s: they were absolutely superb, highly entertaining, musical. These guys ought to be millionaires.
I'm really glad I found this vid. I haven't heard this song since I was probably still in middle school or elementary school and I never forgot it. I always liked it. Hmm...why didn't I search for this before? >.>
Another great song from Kostas, who also (co)wrote Dream River for The Mavericks and Ain't that Lonely Yet for Dwight Yoakam
OMG. I remember listening to this at Bronko Bills in Philly They had such a good sound system..
Just came across this song on a random radio and I absolutely love it
Wow. This is the first time hearing this! Love it! I found it looking for another song from back years ago! Great song
Love for The mavericks from Indonesia southeast Asia
Great song by a great band. I saw them in Brighton some years ago and they just blew everyone away.
The chorus on this one just about says it all. Great song, well delivered.
Here comes the night as dark as my soul
One of the Raul and the Mavericks very best and that really is saying something.Raul's voice is made in heaven.Great band

the mavericks singer sounds a lot like Roy Orbison.....one of the only ppl..that come close.

This song is so well written it's just amazing. The production and performance are right on the mark. And for pity's sake, the video has a Dano Longhorn doubleneck.
What's not to love?
Just heard the song. Great melody
Greatest country band of my lifetime
I wish that the Marvericks would get back together again! What CD's, what songs! Raul Malo is a brilliant composer!
Oh, let me catch you up. The Mavericks have reunited and Raul Malo still sings with Latino finesse and grace. Check them out!
Bravo Raul, What a Voice.
Greatest band ever!
Mavericks are a super group. What lovely beautiful happy music.
Boy! If I didn't know who this was and just turned on the radio, I'd swear it was Roy Orbison!
+Michael Werbovetz (81GMC2500) I was thinking the very same thing. I have always thought that the sound that this band has was very Roy Orbison.
That's who my dad compared them to when I had him listen to them. And he's a big Orbison fan, so that's a good thing.
Malo's a huge Orbison fan.
I remember buying my first Mavericks album back in... '91, maybe? And driving around, listening, thinking "This guy can sound like Orbison, like Dean Martin, like Elvis, like Dwight Yoakam, and still sound entirely like himself." I knew instantly he was one in a million. One in ten million. The best voice of his generation.

Here comes the night dark as my soul …perfection
Helooo The mavericks ,I'm the big fans from Jakarta ❤️
What a voice!
Your love's a heartache
That's torn me apart
You've watched my heart break
Right from the start
You took everything you wanted
And now that you are gone
(Chorus 1)
Here comes the rain
Falling down on me
I'm showered in pain
Nothing remains
Of what used to be
What a journey I love where you went.
thanks to youtube i m now a fan of the mavericks and raul. they made great music..shame they have disbanded.
He is beautiful!!! It doesn't get any better!!! Wow!!!
Discovering songwriter, Kostas Lazarides; wonderful.
@loverofcountry506070 I too have "fallen" for their style and talent, lovely. Only saw and heard of them the first time here on RUclips about a month ago...
This song is just so damn good.
Your love's a heartache
That's torn me apart
You've watched my heart break
Right from the start
You took everything you wanted
And now that you are gone
Here comes the rain
Falling down on me
I'm showered in pain
Nothing remains
Of what used to be
Here comes the night
Dark as my soul
There's no end in sight
No shining light
No love to hold
Here comes the rain
I must have been dreaming
I must have been blind
But I never thought you
Could be so unkind
Tomorrow I'll forget you
But I can't forget you now
Here comes the rain
Falling down on me
I'm showered in pain
Nothing remains
Of what used to be
Here comes the night
Dark as my soul
There's no end in sight
No shining light
No love to hold
Here comes the rain
Here comes the rain
Falling down on me
I'm showered in pain
Nothing remains
Of what used to be
Here comes the night
Dark as my soul
There's no end in sight
No shining light
No love to hold
Here comes the rain
(Chorus 2)
Here comes the night
Dark as my soul
There's no end in sight
No shining light
No love to hold
Here comes the rain
I must have been dreaming
I must have been blind
But I never thought you
Could be so unkind
Tomorrow I'll forget you
But I can't forget you now
He was so cute without facial hair. Miss that look.
Powerful..singer,...very soulful....♓♓♓
This is terrific to do a rumba to, I've danced it many times to the record, next Sat28th Feb they are coming here to Glasgow- pity it won't be a dance hall!
+Jay Igaboo ... and they were terrific!
They're a really tight band no stray notes AT ALL in the entire performance. I need to keep my ear to the ground for their next gig here.
ce groupe est superbe.... je l'adore! bisous SOPHIE
MAVERICKS!!!!!! LOVE THEM!!
""here comes the night..dark as my soul"" just says it al
Kind of like Orbison with a British flavor, pretty darn good!
Probably safe to assume they had a lot of influence from Roy
We've all felt the rain at sometime in our love life !! Great song !
No, instead of rain, I feel only cold. That's much worse!
Raul and The Mavs , # 1 in my bucket list.
Reminds me of Heartaches by The Numbers & Lonesome Me.
Darkest souls ever to be
night.
Ever to be destitute on lonely street.
Street nice lovely of
ladies swaying to the music.
love is like heaven to hold.
Fantastic Group. Malo is one of the great ones, but so badly ignored.
People this isn’t country. This is 60’s Rock and Roll.
Done in the 80’s.
I meant 90’s.
absolutely incredible song! love it!
here comes the rain ...love this such dimple
still sounds so good
i love this song by the mavericks
awesome group! so sad that their period of success was so short!
Only seven hit singles, and no number ones.
Eddie Perez knows he can play. Wish they would show The Mavericks Live At Count Basie again on TV.
***** This isn't Eddie Perez. This is Nick Holt.
bucktoff1 It's Nick Kane :)
FantabulouslyCherry Oops. My bad... LOL
someone said raul malo could sing the phone book and make it sound good
2024 and I want to hear more!
Raul must have written this about my cold cruel wife. It's custom made for her empty, cold and dark heart. But it's a great song.
One of my favorite RUclips comments of all time.
Here's to you, Ace.
Great band All ways

Us Washingtonians know the meaning of this song all too well.
not many folks know this, but long before he joined CSI Las Vegas, Gil Grissom was a bonafide country/western artist
One of my fav thanks for sharing!!
love this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Roy Orbison singing lead for the Gin Blossoms in a Nashville studio.
Amen.
Only country song I love. This one and writing on the walls
who would dislike this? what the what?!!?!?
Holy shit, I haven't heard this song since I was a kid
Dig the doubleneck Danelectro Longhorn being played by former Mavericks guitarist Nick Kane in this vid. Not to mentioned the Vox Wyman Bass that Robert Reynolds is rocking.
I'm not a big country fan but this I like
They are the only country group that I like as well. I heard Crying Shame back in '94 and I was hooked. There isn't another band like them.
