Back then TH-cam doesn't exist yet. All we gonna do was wait for the Top 10 or 20 countdown on MTV and other music channels. I've miss those moments in time.
This era was precious, boyzone, backstreet boys, Nsync, blue awsm yaar..90s kid will know the value of these songs...really wanna go back to that time..if u agree plz like.
No nudity...No vulgarity....only soft mind blowing romantic music. Only 90s kids understand these feelings. These type of musics won't never come back again on earth.
When 90s kids are adults commenting...I know I am old...I say the same thing about 1980s...but yes same with 90s too..well folks the age of innocence is gone...I cherish the moments too in 1998 I was 28 listening to this kool song too
hi we have a Boy Group that has the same vibe and music like Boyzone. you can check out their English Song " Alab" I assure you, that you will enjoy thier Music :) thank you in advance! stay Safe and Healthy!
Khadi Haramain trueee!!! I am so glad and happy that im i also grew up listening to all of these songs... they are the best! They are the true "song" compared to all the songs right now. Song right now are just trash 😷
one of the best hits of 1998! wow those were the years! Just can't imagine how I always love to listen and watch this video on MTV back that year.. always hoping that they will play it every hour!!
flightforge30 Yeah I remember I was 7 or 8 yr old when during 1998 my sister bought Boyzone cassette and would listen to this song a lot.Mtv was celebrating "Boyband month" that year...they used to show this song and Backstreet Boys songs a lot. I really miss those times!
I wish I could turn back time that wasn't.. Happy to be part of the great boy band era in which its melody is pleasantly to hear till today.. what an evergreen song..
I was lost and alone Trying to grow Making my way down that long winding road Had no reason, no rhyme Like a song out of time And there you were Standing in front of my eyes How could I be such a fool To let go of love and break all the rules Girl, when you walked out that door Left a hole in my heart And now I know for sure You're the air that I breathe Girl, you're all that I need And I wanna thank you, lady You're the words that I read You're the light that I see And your love is all that I need I was searching in vain Playing a game Had no-one else but myself left to blame You came into my world No diamonds or pearls Could ever replace what you gave to me, girl Just like a castle of sand Girl, I almost let love slip right out of my hands And just like a flower needs rain I will stand by your side through the joy and the pain You're the air that I breathe Girl, you're all that I need And I wanna thank you, lady You're the words that I read You're the light that I see And your love is all that I need You're the air that I breathe Girl, you're all that I need And I wanna thank you, lady You're the words that I read (words that I read) You're the light that I see (you're the light that I see) And your love is all that I need (all that I need) You're the song that I sing (song that I sing) Could you be my everything (could you be my everything) And I wanna thank you, lady You're all that I need, girl You're the air that I breathe, yeah And I want to thank you (And I want to thank you, lady) You're the words that I read, girl Your love is all I need, yeah And I want to thank you (And I want to thank you, lady) You're all that I need, girl You're the air that I breathe, yeah And I want to thank you
2022 and i still have my 90’s boybands playing over and over again.. whenever im sad, or happy or just wanted to relax in my room alone, lights off, headset on and max vol like I am escaping this time and going back to 90’s.. bring me back
Im so proud that i was born in 1997-January. I little remember some fragment of 1998-2000, it was some essence back then, that was fresh ethereal... i still remember those feels. Those who grew up in 1997 as a teenage, really lucky. Anyway good luck, and have a nice year anyone who read me :). Heh...
I can't stop watching this Music video and listening to this song.. It's now my 2nd most listened song on Spotify in all time. Safe to say that i'm obsessed with Boyzone. I wish many people my age nowadays listen to Boyzone, bcs they truly make such amazing and great music (i'm 15).
There was a time.. oh man what era of 90's.. Boyzone,Westlife, Backstreets, NSYNC,Blues,Ricky, Enrique,Maroons and many more.Songs are really unforgettable from people of 80's and 90's..Lucky that I am the one from it.
As a 1989 baby i get to hear the departure music of the 80s,the currency of the 90s, the futuristic of 2000s ..and the next level of 2010---and now I am enjoying them all, all of them r so uniquely made..

This is one of my favourite songs and videos in the world. Thank you for the music and making my childhood and my teens so much better. Rip Stephen you will always be missed ❤
In the of God, I am his treasure, precious and unique in the eyes of people ,I may be despised, but it will not detract from my beauty because to will be you. ❤Although I am dark, you see me beautiful, Although I am quity, you Sacrificed everything for me .I am not the work of mistake, I am the masterpiece of God in your love ,I can delight in myself, fearlessly and dream to love ❤
I cannot fathom why this song has very low views when this song is so beautiful. From the last time I watched this, it has very low views, and yet now I just come back, this song has still very low views.
You´re the air that I breath Girl you´re all that I need And I wanna thank you lady You´re the words that I read You´re the light that I see And your love is all that I need ♪
She is trying to convince me now is not the time for our love story to really begin or take its tall,she is my twin flame but if I let her go now I might not find her again is what scares me.she is all that I need and these is one of my favorite songs🫶🏽🙌🏽
What a soothing song growing up. Having Boyzone during highschool, needless to say - Yes!!! 😁 and by all means, I definitely enjoy every part of music era! I really do. The highest peak for me is particularly happens early 2000's..., since it is literally a wonderful continuity of what were 'developed' in late 90's. The 'worst era' (just in my humble opinion) basically occured somewhere between 2006 - 2015 (It is hard for me to pin pointing what songs I enjoys the most during these intervals😒. It was not that bad, just some songs here and there is still okay-ish... just not that special to 'heart'. Anybody is feeling the same, I wonder? Something that coming right from the bottom of my heart keeps reminding me that those years were annus horibilis; bad transitions in music industry occured. Something was 'just off - simply riddled with experimentations and out of directions. Frequently fluctuates back and forth till finally regain some exciting styles and genre around 2016
Back then TH-cam doesn't exist yet. All we gonna do was wait for the Top 10 or 20 countdown on MTV and other music channels. I've miss those moments in time.
We used to enjoy music more than we do today, because we were waiting so passionately on TV 😪

No nudity...No vulgarity....only soft mind blowing romantic music. Only 90s kids understand these feelings. These type of musics won't never come back again on earth.
Is the reason some still hold on to being loving. Caring and empathetic.

i was born way back 91, these songs molded my mind into music-loving one; which inspired me to become a musician now. 😁
Back when talent *meant* something.
Boyzone, Westlife, Backstreet Boys, NSYNC, such wow, much nostalgia.
Apurva Nataraj You Forgot about Blue
Burbath R marak i agree your opinion
What 'bout One Direction
100% right... me too lub them all
Apurva Nataraj I absolutely agree, they are my boyband faves 'til now😍😍😍
No boyband now will ever beat the boybands back in 90 and 2000 miss this bands now...
I agree 💯 boyzone was one of the best 90s bands ❤❤❤
Whoever wrote lyrics, he brought song to a whole different level, when he wrote thank you LADY and not a baby. So glad...
Great
i hate boybands, these are the only guys whose music i enjoy
Lokesh Thakur Westlife and BSB are good also!! :)
Lokesh Thakur These dickheads didn't even write their own songs.
That is true, but they did execute the songs well. That is why they were popular.
90s defines the best parts of my life. growing up to the best music ever.
Khadi Haramain agree
Khadi Haramain i second the motion
Khadi Haramain i wholeheartedly agree. I'm a total 90's kid
Khadi Haramain trueee!!! I am so glad and happy that im i also grew up listening to all of these songs... they are the best! They are the true "song" compared to all the songs right now. Song right now are just trash 😷
the best is yet to come
Very special song what a time to grow up in the world with music like this
80s and 90s songs are way better than some of the music today :D
well said
Of course
agree
Better than most of music nowadays ;)
Mary Jehner Dela Cruz yeah..i agree...for me too..
80's 90's is much better than now..
damn ronan is so handsome. i think hes the best looking band member in 90s
I like everything in this song:musiic,words,so as
Ronan's voice
I want to go back in 90's..i miss everything. Just a simple life,less stress,no pressure.
one of the best hits of 1998! wow those were the years! Just can't imagine how I always love to listen and watch this video on MTV back that year.. always hoping that they will play it every hour!!

Childhood ❤
I wish I could turn back time that wasn't.. Happy to be part of the great boy band era in which its melody is pleasantly to hear till today.. what an evergreen song..
Me too 🤣
90's definitely is healthy musics era ever..
80's were.. 90's were all parent advisory musics produced (mostly)
70s also have best music era in their life . Those times were Freddy Mercury time
no bullshit songs, no meaningless lyrics..
Yes you are 100% right then music is healthy & now music is unhealthy its bad for our heath 😆😆😆😆
Noong Leader singer ako ng Boyzone Band. Book Of Record. bilang si Ronan Keatting.
Ronan Keating's face is timeless.
and his Voice
Ahhah 98 and now almost same
Yes! Ageless and timeless ❤️❤️
Ronan is my idol
Ronan was so fit, still looks good now, had a huge crush on him back in the day ❤
I missed my childhood time.. Every Heard all boyband band song.. 😥
lyrically this is the best boyband song ever... no other song has this much depth and accuracy of lyrical balance in rhymes compared to this song
BSB songs do.
Thank You Boyzone for giving us this beautiful song.
Yes
Well, I’m here on 1st September 2024, 13:11 pm… remembering those days…. Memorable days…❤
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I was lost and alone
Trying to grow
Making my way down that long winding road
Had no reason, no rhyme
Like a song out of time
And there you were
Standing in front of my eyes
How could I be such a fool
To let go of love and break all the rules
Girl, when you walked out that door
Left a hole in my heart
And now I know for sure
You're the air that I breathe
Girl, you're all that I need
And I wanna thank you, lady
You're the words that I read
You're the light that I see
And your love is all that I need
I was searching in vain
Playing a game
Had no-one else but myself left to blame
You came into my world
No diamonds or pearls
Could ever replace what you gave to me, girl
Just like a castle of sand
Girl, I almost let love slip right out of my hands
And just like a flower needs rain
I will stand by your side through the joy and the pain
You're the air that I breathe
Girl, you're all that I need
And I wanna thank you, lady
You're the words that I read
You're the light that I see
And your love is all that I need
You're the air that I breathe
Girl, you're all that I need
And I wanna thank you, lady
You're the words that I read (words that I read)
You're the light that I see (you're the light that I see)
And your love is all that I need (all that I need)
You're the song that I sing (song that I sing)
Could you be my everything (could you be my everything)
And I wanna thank you, lady
You're all that I need, girl
You're the air that I breathe, yeah
And I want to thank you
(And I want to thank you, lady)
You're the words that I read, girl
Your love is all I need, yeah
And I want to thank you
(And I want to thank you, lady)
You're all that I need, girl
You're the air that I breathe, yeah
And I want to thank you
Beautiful!

This song is also very nice,
I like the instrumental in this song,so as the chorus,this song helps me to believe in love,again
nothing compares 90s songs of the boyband at that time...
I love how they keep to a specific "look"/"theme" for their outfits, but each member has a different style based on their personalities :)
I miss the '90s. I love Boyzone. The musics were great and the music videos were creative, no need anything sexual or vulgar.
