He is something!!! That baby smooth velvet voice, he was born in West Virginia ,then in his mid 20,s he moved to Colorado, for 16 years, then he moved to Seattle Washington, where he died of cancer in 2004, we really miss him a true earth angel 😥😥😥👼👼👼👼👏👏👏🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I'm from West Virginia so I had to go and check Randy up online and it says that he was born in Indian Hills, Co in 1955 and not West Virginia. He did move to Seattle, Washington and died at only 48 years old on January 12, 2004 is correct.
@@amparomarreros4456 Yep. The year I graduated from high school, 1979. I remember this song from way back then. I've always loved it. Actually, it's one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard and the most beautiful voice, too.
Ahhh the summer of 1978!. Remember it well. It debuted that year. Played in all of 1979. Those days months years will never be back again, a time era never to return again. Glad I lived it.
Released in February 1979, this was my song for about two months. My first ever girlfriend dumped me in April of that year. I thought my romantic life was over forever after Elizabeth.
@@JLopez-xv1pe I doubt if there's a human being on this planet who hasn't had at least one...."Just when I needed you most" ... person in their life. A sad, but very beautiful song.
Can honestly say I have lived this song more than once... who would've thought hearing it at 15 it would be a theme of my early relationships... quite ironic
There is a lightness, a deep and harmonious feeling in the song and in the singer... why are the songs of today (I write in August 2022) not like that anymore? What is happening to us humans? Does the world really turn around and will we have it all over again?
Nothing can connect with the soul deeper than a hauntingly beautiful melody, and this one has what it takes. Thank you Randy, for leaving this as your legacy. Sorry you could not have lived a full life. 😢
One of my favorite ballads. Randy had such a beautiful voice. So sad that he died at the young age of 48. RIP, Randy and thanks for this beautiful song.
@@tuxitalk4-tuxipolitixpage772 He passed in 2004 from Leukaemia. A tragic loss to the music industry. If you love this, check his performance at the Bluebird "I'm in a Hurry". AWESOME!
THIS SONG SO TAKES YOU DOWN MEMORY LANE! A VERY EMOTIONAL SONG BUT SO MANY OF US HAS LIVED THE PAIN FROM SOMEONE LEAVING US JUST WHEN WE NEEDED THEM MOST! RIP MY RANDY!💜🙏
Fact, Randy went to the top School In Looe Cornwall with his younger brother Ronnie. His Mum always had the front room full of young lads having fun. He was a genuinely funny and remarkable chap. We ate toast with cinnamon powder on it and I still do to this day. Thanks Randy...
GOD !!!!!!!!!!! "WHY" can't we live forever ? These kinds of writers/singers touch all of us in one way or another, and can you just imagine the songs Randy would have continued to write ? Gives me chills when I hear him and his songs and I play them often when I'm performing. RIP Randy hope they have the net in Heaven where you can read how much we "ALL" love and miss you
This, aspiring songwriting boys and girls, is how you write! You touch on emotions everyone has felt and tap into that. This is a perfectly written song. God blessed Randy with such talent! RIP, Randy!
Hey James.. You hit the nail on the head with your comment. I'm a long time singer/writer as well and I've always gravitated to this type of writer as well as Jim Croce ( Time in a bottle ) and the band Bread. Been a fan of Randy's since the beginning as I'm sure you have too cause you've got a great ear/mind to know perfection when you hear it. Cheers from British Columbia Canada. Tim
Since sharing this classic on You Tube my good mate Joe Palmer (playing the auto harp here) has moved back to the UK but we speak often, and I am in touch with Ron, Randys brother occasionally. I apologize for the raw quality but this was a rip from an old VHS tape that Joe found among his old collection in a store room.
Mick Masters Thanks so much for sharing this hauntingly beautiful piece. I vividly remember when I first heard it as a young girl . I think it was paired with the movie 'Watership Down' when it was released around 79-80 & although I didn't see the movie, I instead read the novel, written by Richard Adams. I was deeply moved by both the novel & this song then & am equally as moved when I hear the song now. Funny how some sensations attached to memories can be seared into our being, such that they affect us strongly even after many decades. Such a sweet, angelic voice, thankyou for the special gift you left us Randy.
Thanku for this video! it’s more realistic and more beautiful both of them breathing same time so perfect !!!,I treasure this video more than earlier ine, my heartfelt Thanku again !!! Love the way he sings and the voice to go wt it 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘💗💗💗💗💗💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
Underrated, he had other songs that were just as good...beautiful. .brings a tear to my eye when I hear this song, great memories growing up and crying over chicks...lol...
🎸WOW, 🎢I'd about forgotten this beautiful.minded musician, we all lost DO Young. Thank you Jesus for allowing me to recall this moment in time RIP Darling Randy V.🎸💜🎸
This song will live on forever in my heart and in those who hearts it touched. This song was a time and place for those of us, and most of all for Randy Vanwarmer.
Listening from Brazil in May 2023, reminds me my childhood! Never forgotten song and never forgotten era! Pauing attention to the lyrics, i can now realize it was composed not for a lover but for a father! Am I correct? Regards from Brazil 🇧🇷
The first time I heard this song was in the 1981 movie, "Private Lessons". I got the soundtrack just for this song. The song fits perfectly in this boy's coming-of-age drama/fantasy. BTW, Earth Wind & Fire's "Fantasy" is there too. ❤ When I was old enough I got a job as a chauffeur. Good times. 🤵🏻
I love this old classic song including the melody/music, even though it was about heartbreak... it reminds me of my first true love... "coz you, left me, Just When I Needed You Most"... powerful and heartfelt touching lyrics... worth, lesson learned...
Randy left us just when we needed him most! Such talent.
AMEN!
I just love his voice and this song so much. Really pulls at my heart every time I listen to it ❤️

You never can get bored with this song. Just so beautiful.
I was quite surprised to see how young he died, very sad he didn't even make it to 50
His voice, his sweet face when he sings this song it’s like he’s feeling the pain he’s singing about. ❤❤❤❤❤
It's one of those songs from the past, which you always like hearing again!
Very underrated. So sad he is gone.
The melody is great,the lyrics touches your heart and you can feel the sincerity of this guy.😅
This nice melody is 1,979

Randy just had the kindest looking face and owner of an angelic voice. This song will outlive us all.
This has a haunting melody and a story almost everyone can relate to sometime in their lives. Beautiful song. Thank you Randy. RIP

song by a beautiful hearted guy always makes me sad
Had forgotten this song until gold radio played it on Valentine’s Day one of the best ballads ever gives me shivers x
💗💗💗 hey 👋
Every word is so true 👍 💯
What a beautiful song, cant believe the guy is dead
I always play this song more than twice per day , I really love this song.
The most beautiful voice!
A voice of an Angel. RIP
Nice song, Randy you left us a beautiful song before you obeyed the summons...RIP.
One of the most beautiful heart touching song ever written .R.I.P. Randy
His voice was so unique,❤
...nice to hear song without auto-tune...
I read somewhere he wrote this song for his father because he passed away when Randy was fairly young. Such a beautiful song.
'I Guess It Never Hurts to Hurt Sometimes' is the one he wrote about his father. The Oak Ridge Boys took it to #1 in 1983.
Underrated, he had other songs that were just as good...beautiful. .brings a tear to my eye when I hear this song, great memories growing up and crying over chicks...lol...

The best of heartbreak songs
Such a beautiful voice to leave so soon. God rest your soul Randy.
💗💗💗 hey 👋
Beautiful song capturing real love !!!
This song will live on forever in my heart and in those who hearts it touched. This song was a time and place for those of us, and most of all for Randy Vanwarmer.
Wow: a countrified treatment of a pop classic tearjerker that recalls the late-great Gram Parsons; what’s NOT to LOVE?..
what a voice
One of the, if not THE, most beautiful song of my lifetime (to me, of course). I knew it the first time I heard it on the radio in 1978.
RIP Randy.
Randy's voice somehow got better with age and he sang arguably better in the 90s than he did in the 70s and 80s. More mature and deeper connecting.
I love this song, no mather what. It is something I can't explain
ONE OF THE ALL TIME BEST SINGERS AND SONG !
one of my all time favorite ballads.
