For all of those who thought he was just a singer...you now know the truth...he could do it all, wrote his own music, played his own music, and sang...no limit to his talent or to his big heart. cheers and keep on rocking Howard Jones!!
awesome, i have always love howard jones, having been a teen in the 1980's, him and nik kershaw, absolutely brilliant, i think its just a shame they never collaborated back then :(
Gen X guy here. In the 80s we loved more British hits than anyone could imagine. Europe in general. Being from US...we were so used to the music. The 80s was a decade where american and England songs were played side by side and the memories of my youth in the 80s. Never be another decade like it!
Howard Jones is a highly talented and underrated musician, composer and keyboard player. He created one of the best 80s music, and this something. Ageless classic.
Howord Jones is a person who touches millions of people with his heart and soul! And I am one of them....Thank you for all the beautiful moments!!! Be healthy and happy and tomorrow hopefully another long and happy life for you🤗🤍🙏
Sure he used the hardware version in the 80's. This review mentions it's his fav synth. www.pluginboutique.com/products/633-Jupiter-8V?gclid=CM-R84ar1cQCFWfmwgodZBkAww
i know, i already bought the synth at my nearest music store, i love it, it sounds like a jupiter-80 (the roland synth i've been recently drooling over)
Anyway..if you're doctor who..landing in my 80's emo soaked life..to nuke it with good music..thanks.....felt..like high schooll.. good stuff taht and hard rock...and black r&b motown.
how can anyone put a thumb down to this song....? boring, glyn robertson, as bowie said in labyrinth, you say that so often, I wonder what your basis for comparison is....this will fry your hair
Great Howard Jones, techno 80s!! Great emotions , great vibes! Great sound and producer!! Thanks so much , Howard jones best tracks sessions and Absolute radio for sharing!! Hug Rafael
Alex ..well.. just play the record then. If you want to hear it as it was recorded, then that's all you have to do. If you want to hear him do a cover of his own song then let him update it for the 21st century and add some delays on the vocals.. Why not?
Glyn Robertson he's in his 60s. He hasn't got the voice that he had 35 years ago, plus also he's playing it live rather than in a huge multitrack studio.. he's also singing it on a wrap around levalier (and I have a notoriously dry sound).. and he's not able to perform it in the way that he perhaps would like to because he's in a little radio studio. Just an observation. Plus it's not a music video.
For all of those who thought he was just a singer...you now know the truth...he could do it all, wrote his own music, played his own music, and sang...no limit to his talent or to his big heart. cheers and keep on rocking Howard Jones!!
I like the way he uses modern technology in his music he definitely keeps up with the times
awesome, i have always love howard jones, having been a teen in the 1980's, him and nik kershaw, absolutely brilliant, i think its just a shame they never collaborated back then :(
Same here! It was good to finally see them both together! 💕

I'm British and totally agree. We were so lucky to grow up with such a wide range of chart music. I'd go back ina heartbeat.
I love it when live performances are better than the studio tracks and this one of them. Epic.
Thanks! Glad you like it - Howard is a fantastic chap
Howard Jones is a Beast on the keyboards from all the way to Eternity

Awesome sound, I miss the 80's!

Awesome to see him rocking it years later sounding great and playing the synths with mastery.
He broke it down just like I remembered it from the early 1980s

Should have done some Miami Vice scores with Jan Hammer .. mind you Jan nailed it
Always admired Howard's keyboard skills
HOWARD JONES = AMAZING TALENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LEGEND
When I hear steel drums, I think 80s... always. I love it and the film Hot Pursuit with John Cusack.

Great to see my mate Robbie at the back, living the dream, even in sweatpants !! :)

Robbie is the keyboard player back right. Known him for over 30 years.

Great live version. He really hasn't lost his touch. Can still play those keyboards LOL
how can anyone put a thumb down to this song....?
boring, glyn robertson, as bowie said in labyrinth, you say that so often, I wonder what your basis for comparison is....this will fry your hair
Very talented and keeps his tracks modern and fresh.
This is awesome, I love this!!
well there is not much to it when you are a trained pianist :P
He has always had those KeyBoards dowm
Howard Jones is a Beast at the Keyboards and Synthesizers and I mean that in a Positive way

HOWARD JONES 1 - 0 MODERN CRAPPY ARTISTS
🖕off bumm
Great job Howard! Let me know if you ever come to Bend, Oregon!
Love this Absolute Radio HoJo's Live series ! Amazing show !
Love how he still has those original patches of the song.
Absolutely brilliant!!! Brings back so many memories of growing up as a teen in California in the 80s!
E' la sua canzone che mi piace di più. Grande Howard !!! Gran professionista
Bad ass after all this years Howard Jones is one bad man on the vocals n 🎹⌨💻🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎙the synth
Very impressed he was able to nail those high vocal parts on the bridge after all these years. Must have taken very good care of himself.... :-)
After🇬🇧so many Years & his still Kicking it like Def🇬🇧Leppard👌🏼.Like👍🏼 he knows☮️how☯️. Howard Jones from the Awesome 80's✌🏼.
The echo effect is unnecessary
Alex ..well.. just play the record then.
If you want to hear it as it was recorded, then that's all you have to do. If you want to hear him do a cover of his own song then let him update it for the 21st century and add some delays on the vocals..
Why not?
Still a great song and sounding really good live!
Great memories. What a great talent. Sort of thing that was played out on Radio 1 Roadshow in Torquay. Carefree simple days ..
That was very good 👍
Hey kids of today....THIS is How REAL MUSIC Sounds!!!!🤭☝️
the echo stuff is naff
Bravo Bravo Bravo
come to nY howard - please!
Cool
I really don't mid the song but this version is irritating, boring and repetetive. He shows no emotion, drive or love in this 'performance'.
Glyn Robertson he's in his 60s.
He hasn't got the voice that he had 35 years ago, plus also he's playing it live rather than in a huge multitrack studio.. he's also singing it on a wrap around levalier (and I have a notoriously dry sound).. and he's not able to perform it in the way that he perhaps would like to because he's in a little radio studio.
Just an observation.
Plus it's not a music video.
Great Jobs Howard Jones
grande
Best song ever!!! ❤️❤️
Ancora musica per noi vi auguro una buona e serena serata a tutti
Enzo ciao grazie dolcissimo mio
Sì certo
E grazie anche a te Enzo Laratta
Oohhh I like this version! Lol🌈
Very cool!
Howard is still technically advanced.
WOW remarkable sounds incredible
and hes a Southampton supporter. Go the Saints.
Is that Phil Jupitus at the back..?😂
Apple commercial?🤔
Shame he didn't do hide and seek in this series
I like Howard forever kayoko
Omg Howard is so gorgeous !!!
His done well, & never turned into a drama queen. Seems like a nice chap.
Great ❤Howard ! I love you and Nick Kershaw❤!!!! I miss the 80's and 90's I, m 49❤
Truly Outrageous!
He loves his Rolands
He loves his Rolands
Great song heard it on the radio. 80s song brought into the 20th century nice one
Greeeeeeat! 🥳💎
That's one hard working band. Great version. Deserves more views...algorithms eh?
very annoying
I sure do love extra extra long versions and remixes… I’ve been hunting them all down since the digital age began.
Sounds quite good, by why the invisible bass player?
