David was as arrogant back then as he is today. I’m glad you listened to your inner voice and trusted your gut. I have always loved your music and thank you for sharing it with us. You are still as handsome as ever!!!
And we're SO glad you DID prove him wrong! You're AWESOME and are part of the "soundtrack of my life". Thank you for decades of great music and SINGING!
I hope you take the time to read these comments Richard. I’m 55 and you were a part of the summers of my youth. Endless summer nights. That song takes me to a place near and dear to my heart. A time I can’t get back,but will never forget.
You have one of the most beautiful voices i've heard in my lifetime.I've listened to your music since Hazard.I really enjoyed your appearance on This Morning earlier this year.Thank you for your music x
Thank you so much Richard great advice,Thank you for giving us that back bone of support and Iam happy that you followed your heart and you're music is priceless as well as your vocals bless you.
Nice to see you, " oceans apart day after day", wherever you go, whatever you do, I will be right here waiting for you", I can hear your voice, without listening to that song, beautiful
....I'm so LOVING this, "..Richard throws that lethal SHADE.." era of his life .....and, backing it up with Musical PROOF! ....I always knew he was a 'lil spitfire........ ; ) (1:10)
Well he must have NOT been hearing what we hear! Your voice and songs make me very emotional. I love Hazard, Dance with My Father, Ready to Fly to name a few. Thank you for sharing that beautiful voice with us all. ❤
I am a farm boy from Kentucky who grew up listening to your music richard. I just want to thank you for all your hard work and dedication to your craft and never giving up on your dreams and inspiring so many.Your music is such a big part of my life. Thank you, thank you sir. Jesus is real and he is coming back soon. Everyone needs to be ready. I am praying for you and your family good sir. May God bless. Peace out ❤
You have one of the best and most unique voices in music. Music and art is always in the eye/ear of the beholder. For one person that doesn’t like something, there’s a lot more who do. I’m glad you didn’t let that stop you.
📣 Thank you for believing in yourself Richard and all the hard work it took you to get to where you are at. If it wasn't for your hard work and believing, we would have never had the pleasure to listen to your timeless hits after hits again and again ‼️ BTW, my regards to your wife Daisy. Myself, i am Cuban/ American, name also Richard. juantime is a name i chose for utube. Again, thanks for all you do and have done. ❤️ From Pasadena, Ca.
I'm so glad that you didn't let his words discourage you, because your music has been so great over the years. The song.... Hold On To The Night.... is still a favorite of mine after all these years. Thanks Richard.
Hi Richard, do not believe that. I absolutely love your music and i have been listening to your music all my life. I have alot of your CDs . You have beautiful voice. Thanks for all the beautiful music. Hugs
I wish he could have seen your show in Wilkes-Barre, PA that I reviewed for the local newspaper back in 1988. The place went bananas for you! I still haven't seen that kind of excitement for an act at that venue all these years later. I interviewed the manager during all the cheering and he smiled and said, "This is nuts!" I'm glad things worked out.
Love your advice. You have a beautiful voice. Every time you visit Hawaii, my BFF & I go to your performances so we can watch you live and listen to your eloquent & smooth voice of meaningful lyrics. ~ Biggest fan from the Big Island. P.S. Your wife, Daisy, helped me get in shape with her famous Pilates workout.
Opps. He was wrong about u. U have a wonderful voice. Thanks for sharing that. Great message. Always believe in yourself n keep going no matter what. U r an inspiration Richard. ❤
I’m glad you didn’t let him stop you! I have enjoyed your music, and count myself fortunate that I was able to see you in concert once. That must have been a shock to you. Thank you for sharing this; I am sure you are helping others to continue to believe in themselves. ❤️
You’ve been my favorite since your first album and I followed your shows a lot when you released My Own Best Enemy. I flew all over to see you from CA to NY to Canada. I attended several benefit concerts as well. Thanks for all the great songs!
Thanks for trusting your gut and sharing your incredible talent with all of us! We love you, Richard! Warmest regards to your lovely wife, Daisy, as well. ❤
Hi Richard I know the feeling after playing Drums in many local Bands for Years. I felt a bit Trapped by people saying you cant play w/ Major Pro Label Artist.. Well Many Years Later I prayed for a Producer and was Blessed w/ Warren Huart. Today my Resume contains Musicians from THE WHO, TOTO, Taylor Swift, Luke Bryan, and so forth. I'm Thankful and feel that Years of hard work on the Drums payed Off. All of a sudden people treat me with respect and admire me. Thanks be to GOD.
Thank you Richard Marx for not listening to him and for not giving up and for not putting your dreams on the shelf. Your music has saved me every day of my life. I ❤ you Richard Marx.
NO ONE can stop what's meant to be ...not him, nor her, nor you, nor me . For nothing is greater than a Divine Will set free...to touch the Souls' of Humanity... sharing all that there is and ever will be ....Love ! Richard Marx the spot 🎯 ❤ , capturing emotions through Words and Sounds ...
About a year and a half ago, Dimash Qudaibergen had just completed his Ph.D. and moved to L.A. to attend the LA campus of the NY school of Fine Arts to study Film Directing. Foster found out Dimash was in town and pursued him like crazy. Dimash turned him down. A few weeks in and the grandfather of Dimah died and he returned to Kazakhstan. He has been quite busy with concerts and videos since that time. Like you, he had a vision foe himself and he is doing quite well without Foster.
I could never stand Foster! He has such an ego! I admit when I was a teen in the 80s I wasn’t a huge fan but I grew to appreciate your music and your voice. You are sooo talented!
Yes, you told Mr. Bones that a few years back and that David wanted you to just write and NOT sing or perform. Seems like old David Foster has given all kinds of performers who we know and love bad advice. You tell em Chi Boy !!!
Best way to handle the naysayer's is to ignore and prove them wrong. You certainly did that on every level Richard. I can't imagine the world without your great songs and incredible voice that will live on and be relevant forever. I just saw your gigs in Australia later this year with a heap of my other favourite artists, Tina Arena, Daryl Braithwaite, Kate Ceberano, Southern Sons, 1927. That will be incredible. Sadly no Perth on the tour. Bummer!
Dude, you would have more fans around the world than you would even know. We might all be over 50's, but I think that's the minimum age these age for true music appreciation. Cheers from Australia.
That was amazing! I love that!! He saw the Heart on your Sleeve, There’s a song title for you, that Heart on your Sleeve let the world know who you were and what you had to share with us! He saw it in you, and you knew what you had inside. I could hear it in your voice telling us that all these years later, it would hurt anyone, but you showed the world who you are!!! Like you said…it don’t mean nothing😎
He didn’t know what he was talking about. You are awesome, Richard.
Exactly
Don't mean nuthin
David was as arrogant back then as he is today. I’m glad you listened to your inner voice and trusted your gut. I have always loved your music and thank you for sharing it with us. You are still as handsome as ever!!!
Nice said Richard, always believe in yourself and follow your road. Thank you for your great songs 👍🏻
And we're SO glad you DID prove him wrong! You're AWESOME and are part of the "soundtrack of my life". Thank you for decades of great music and SINGING!
I hope you take the time to read these comments Richard. I’m 55 and you were a part of the summers of my youth. Endless summer nights. That song takes me to a place near and dear to my heart. A time I can’t get back,but will never forget.
Same
..I still have my casette😅
Tough lesson to learn... but thank God you rose above it. Thanks for sharing!
You have one of the most beautiful voices i've heard in my lifetime.I've listened to your music since Hazard.I really enjoyed your appearance on This Morning earlier this year.Thank you for your music x
He had no clue. You have a beautiful distinctive voice that I can recognize anywhere. Love to listen to you sing.
Thank you so much Richard great advice,Thank you for giving us that back bone of support and Iam happy that you followed your heart and you're music is priceless as well as your vocals bless you.
We love you Sir Richard Marx. Your music played a great role in my life, thank you and God bless you and your entire family Amen 🙏
Richard ,I love your voice and music, and I agree with you 100%.
And Richard was still a gentleman about it. Very classy! And yes, you proved him wrong.
Somewhere, David Foster is PIIIIIIIIISSED right now... Hahahahaha.... Thanks for telling that story, Richard!
He should've known better.
Nice to see you, " oceans apart day after day", wherever you go, whatever you do, I will be right here waiting for you", I
can hear your voice, without listening to that song, beautiful
Loved in then, still love it now. Your music is Timeless. Thank you sir.😀🇺🇸🇬🇧
Your music and voice are excellent. I'm 47 and I've liked you since the 80's. Keep up the good work Richard 👍😊😊😊😊
Thanks for all the beautiful music ❤❤
Bless you Richard because I think you are awesome…I love nearly all of your songs and play the ones I like over and over again…Don’t quit
....I'm so LOVING this, "..Richard throws that lethal SHADE.." era of his life .....and, backing it up with Musical PROOF! ....I always knew he was a 'lil spitfire........ ; ) (1:10)

I'm floored that Foster told him not to sing??!!! What!!! What a beautiful and distinct voice!!! Possibly Foster was jealous? 🤷♀️
Wow. And you are my favourite singer. I listen to “hold on to the night” every single day! ❤
Love you Richard!!❤❤
Always do your best. Prove them wrong!!!
You have one of the best and most unique voices in music. Music and art is always in the eye/ear of the beholder. For one person that doesn’t like something, there’s a lot more who do. I’m glad you didn’t let that stop you.
I love this....thank you for sharing this story. 😎🎶

📣 Thank you for believing in yourself Richard and all the hard work it took you to get to where you are at. If it wasn't for your hard work and believing, we would have never had the pleasure to listen to your timeless hits after hits again and again ‼️
BTW, my regards to your wife Daisy. Myself, i am Cuban/ American, name also Richard. juantime is a name i chose for utube. Again, thanks for all you do and have done. ❤️ From Pasadena, Ca.

I still haven't seen that kind of excitement for an act at that venue all these years later. I interviewed the manager during all the cheering and he smiled and said, "This is nuts!" I'm glad things worked out.

Your story about David Foster is helpful to many. So glad that you shared this.
And clearly, so glad that you ignored his prophecy.
You, sir, have been the soundtrack of my life. Thank you for proving him wrong.

Bastante equivocado estaba, Richard adoro tu música desde 35 años atrás saludos desde Chile!!
Glad you started singing because you helped me through some B's
Great story!

Luther sang Dance with my father again very well. Nice writing
Thank goodness you did sing ! You have the best smile 😍♥️
I could never stand Foster! He has such an ego! I admit when I was a teen in the 80s I wasn’t a huge fan but I grew to appreciate your music and your voice. You are sooo talented!
Hey, Richard saw you in Woonsocket! Great show! Thank you!
They told Willie Nelson that too❤
Richard!!!!!!❤ you since the 80s
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing. He was so wrong!!!!😮
Richard Marx David Foster was absolutely Full of SH* T ! You are extremely talented.❤️
Yes, you told Mr. Bones that a few years back and that David wanted you to just write and NOT sing or perform. Seems like old David Foster has given all kinds of performers who we know and love bad advice. You tell em Chi Boy !!!

You got the awesome career, do great work and got a talented, lovely and amazingly beautiful wife! YOU WIN! 💯
David Foster? Ouchy😮 proved his azz wrong😂
The best rock crooner ever! Way too many songs to list but
Breathless from Flesh and Bone album is truly one hell of a ballard.
I love your songs they're so awesome Richard 😘😍😃❤️❤️❤️
Dude, you would have more fans around the world than you would even know. We might all be over 50's, but I think that's the minimum age these age for true music appreciation. Cheers from Australia.
That was amazing! I love that!! He saw the Heart on your Sleeve, There’s a song title for you, that Heart on your Sleeve let the world know who you were and what you had to share with us! He saw it in you, and you knew what you had inside. I could hear it in your voice telling us that all these years later, it would hurt anyone, but you showed the world who you are!!! Like you said…it don’t mean nothing😎
I'm sure glad he didn't listen to him. I was a big fan of Richard Marx growing up in the '80's. He had so many hits during that era.
Hard to imagine what we all would've missed out on if Richard had taken those words as gospel.
