He got his break a tad late. He sung his heart out all over Indianapolis, then, Indiana.. by the time his break came, his proclivities got the best of him.
This is a forgotten gem. If this video were made today, people would say he was harassing these women. They don't have good songs like this anymore. Today's music BLOWS!

The music videos of the 80s were the absolute best! They all told a little story behind the song. Some were silly, some funny, some sad, etc. but they were all great! It's a shame that videos changed with just half naked back up dancers and the like, and then MTV gave up on music videos altogether and focused on shitty reality shows. I miss the 80s so much, and I was only a little girl back then.
This song is crazy good! I love it! Henry Lee Summer's voice is so indicative of the music of the 80s which I love! Wish there was more music like this today! Maybe today's youth would finally be able to get what made our music so special!
@user-lm6lu3lz5r yeah, it's pretty good. I like the song. I like in the video, at the end, when one of the women , the hot one, was waiting for him. I think , I heard that the singer got into trouble with the police or something.
Just a damn good feel good song. Some people say cheesy and corny but hey Some songs just make you feel good and remember when life was better. Bring back the 80's
We got to see Henry Lee and friends recently in Indianapolis. Brother has still got it going on. He was nice enough to talk with everybody and visit with each and every fan following the show. Good dude to support.
🖐 Since it came out. Sadly, seems not a whole lot remember it anymore. Shame. Tons of great 80s that fell into obscurity. Had to spent hours on Spotify making my own collection playlist. Everyone just puts the "hits" on everything and it's always the same stuff. Worked on here for one once but videos kept being pulled so gave up. Crazy today that some don't even know some of Tina Turner's songs that did well. Uncultured swine... lol The 80's had it all. I miss them. We need them back. Music today is largely crap.
✋️✌️❤ I have a pic of myself with Henry from a bar he played in (small town Indiana) I showed it to my mom. She said, "Please tell me, that isn't your boyfriend." A year later he was on MTV. Good ole 80"s. 😊
Sounds a lot like Fogerty. That being said I too thought he had a bright future til he appeared on Letterman. Quite spastic, Letterman telling him he need to switch to decaf. Oh well, great song.
He played in a band at my mom and dad's bar!!! We've known him nearly all our lives!!! So we went to all his concerts and bought his music - he went to the top of charts in the mid to late 80s . . .🎉I still like him and his music🎉 . . .
drewb anthony I still love Henry Lee Summer. I have "I Wish I Had A GIRL Like That" downloaded on my phone along with @ 1500 other 80s hits. The 80s was just a great laid-back fun era of music to ever come around in my opinion. I say it all the time and I'LL say it until I die...to really understand the 80s you had experience and live in the 80s. There will NEVER be another decade or era that will ever compare to the 80s.
I met Henry Lee summer last Saturday. He did a concert in Gaston Indiana and I worked security at his show (it wasn't a big show) we got him back to the room after the show and talked about politics. Cool guy.
My former band had the pleasure of being the opening act for Henry Lee a few years ago. Absolutely the nicest guy. Very cordial and complimentary. He kept mentioning our band and thanking us during his set. Heck, we were the ones thanking him for allowing us to open for him.
I'd completely forgotten this song and Summer. Popped up in my recommended and I clicked on it. I'm glad I did, so I could be reminded of this cool song
I played high school basketball against Henry in western Indiana back in the day. He was good. A lot better than I was. I know he struggled with demons later in life. Hope he is healthy and happy.
A few years ago, I used to run into Henry quite a bit. He has had a rough life. Last time I had seen him he had kicked his addictions again but he was just on the teetering edge and I haven't seen him in a while. I hope he is still on the the good side of his struggle.
indufan That's too bad, addictions can be life ruining. Henry Lee had a lot of talent. If you're familiar with Tommy Bolin he was another one that addiction to booze and drugs took his life too soon. You Tube is a world of music knowledge for those that are interested.
***** Henry Lee looked really bad. I have done a little more searching since then and looks like he has some stuff out there for the last couple of years and he is actually singing and somewhat decently again. When I saw him, he was playing second guitar on Tuesday nights in downtown Indy.
Saw Henry Lee Summer in the 90's opening for STARSHIP.... He blew STARSHIP off the Stage... Awesome Singer and Backing Band. Hope he makes a comeback soon.
Bama Moondog... I am also a retired truck driver of close to 30 yrs...owner/operator for over 10 yrs. Pull a chemical tank for over 20 years.. Much love from Mobile Alabama.
This song was all over MTV when I moved into my first apartment - what great times and I didn't even know it. What an upbeat song. Love the choir arrangement too. Where did the years go man ? Great to go back in time for awhile - thanks for posting
None on the men too. I'm so tired of tattoos. Did you know that the ink isn't regulated? Years from now, we'll find out it causes cancer or some such nonsense.
This song and video are just plain old FUN....... Music in the 80s was FUN. The packed stadiums with loud music and loud fans.... it was awesome!!!! I'm so glad I grew up in the 80's What a decade.
I agree, I was born in 1971, I LOVED the 80's. Never heard of this song till today! Now I can't stop playing it.. Lol if I don't stop playing it etc, My wife will put me in the basement! LOL she doesn't know that I have my older stereo and computer down there!
… I first saw HLS in 1986 when he was still a bar act in the Indy scene. He was doing free shows at colleges just to get noticed. He was in Ft Wayne the outside the dining hall. I sat right on the edge of the stage at one point. Even then, I saw the makings of a Star. We played this song at our wedding in ‘88.
I always ask the DJ to play this every time we hit the Door at Jackson st. He started announcing when we walked in here the Henry lee summers girls! Then played the song. #90s
@@brick1371 lol you can’t say shit today! I remember telling this girl her husband was gorgeous. She smiled and thanked me! I wouldn’t dare say that now!
OMG, that voice. Just heard this gem on my car radio then had alexa play it when I got home, then had to watch the video.....now it's added on my playlist of favs. I hadn't heard this in forever and had forgotten how much I liked it. I love a guy singer who can legit scream/sing so awesomely!
this song just popped into my head after 30 some years. i was a big fan of this song. i remember an interview with H.L.S. when this song was a big hit. he said the were in the (ahem) entertainment part of some major city, and some said that when one of the working girls strutted by, the guy turned to watch her walk away, and said "i wish i had a girl who walked like that!" and Henry Lee thought, "now thats a song! to me, Henry Lee Summers was like a john melloncamp with more range. they were both indiana boys.
Just heard this song on iHeart Radio today, for the first time in forever and a day. Forgot what a great tune it was. An unabashedly fun song. Oh, and that mullet!
Freshman year at college. Two Indiana Rock-n-Roll bands play back-2-back in a loading dock at sunset. Midwest girls shakin' what they got and the boys dancin' as best they can. Every hoot and holler multiplied by a thousand. One of the best nights EVER!!
Me and Henry went to High School together! There was a Rock, Pop, R&B, Soul, Country and Oldie Band called the "Main Thing" which Henry later joined. He was great along with the Band Leader Rick Jeffries. Keith Strong (R.I.P.) was the Original Lead Singer (he was something like a Sidney Poitier look alike). Henry (we called him Hank) was a comedian but, we called him the "White Earl the Pearl" because his Basketball Skills and Talent was 2nd to none!!!
Simpler times! So glad I lived and experienced the 8Os as a teen age American kid! Something about the drums/symbols in this song that just make me get overwhelmed with happiness and I even tear up! Thank you Henry Lee and band! A true American classic that will forever be one of my all time favorites!

Pushing everything but the good shit dig into 89s 90s u will fi d all kinds into early 2000s too country rock and alternative

Nailed it
The world has gone soft.
like a TV show or movie,this is all acting.
My all time favorites!!!
You got that right
Indiana represent !
I forgot about this one. This song got a ton of airplay when it came out in 1988.
yes a hidden gem
really? i figured it was some cheesy vanity project like jan terri's "losing you"
I clicked out of curiosity. And realized I'd heard this 248 times before. Guess I forgot.
Yup. Totally forgot about this tune as well. Gonna have to dig deeper into the archives.
Can't believe this is over 30 years old. Such a feel good song.
It was on our college party playlist.

Lmfao!! Its a long one for sure! Lmfao!

If you can dream it you can have it 😎
I had that MULLET. Lol
Had a mullet like that! Until 38! That was 28 years ago! Lol! Now I shave my head so everything is the same!!

you are SOOO right!!!
I miss the 1980s too, and I actually like how many 1980s songs had sax or guitar solos as well as choir parts like this song does
This song is crazy good! I love it! Henry Lee Summer's voice is so indicative of the music of the 80s which I love! Wish there was more music like this today! Maybe today's youth would finally be able to get what made our music so special!
He still comes around local sometimes, Whiteland INDIANA..
He hasn't changed much! Lol
Not that great
@user-lm6lu3lz5r yeah, it's pretty good. I like the song. I like in the video, at the end, when one of the women , the hot one, was waiting for him. I think , I heard that the singer got into trouble with the police or something.
@@brockthomas5347I lived in Southport. I thought it was cool to hear someone local on the radio at Fort Bragg.
Me too
God bless the 80s.
Just a damn good feel good song. Some people say cheesy and corny but hey Some songs just make you feel good and remember when life was better. Bring back the 80's
You got that right I remember those days loved the 80s ...miss those days ..
Bring it back. Hell yea.
I wish for that everyday
Loved it! you know what they say about opinons.
Cheezy and corny would be Justin beiber
How was this guy not a huge success. What a voice!! Wow
He was pretty big in the late 80's, early 90's
He never did a gig that kept him overnight from his wife and kids. That's why he didn't make it big. I liked him more because of that.
He also turned to drugs
Saw him last night. He ROCKED
@@1971nursenancyhe lives in a building behind my house now it’s really cool
We got to see Henry Lee and friends recently in Indianapolis. Brother has still got it going on. He was nice enough to talk with everybody and visit with each and every fan following the show. Good dude to support.
How long ago was that Andrew?
Got to see him in my home town of New Castle, IN - which is where his guitarist is from as well. Fellow Hoosier.
Very cool he's so human!
He’s Performing Tomorrow Night 01/14/2022 at 8Seconds, Indianapolis, In
Did he have the mullett? :)

Still a fan in 2024😊
Some people call this video cheesy. It’s hysterical! Very well acted. And the gospel choir was there for him through the whole ordeal. It was perfect!
All the best videos were kinda cheesy. It was part of their charm.

True. I don't see that energy or feel that positive vibe in today's music.
Not too many people have an open mouth bigger than their entire face. LOL!
if this song came out today there would be a sequel video because the woman he hooked up with at the end was actually a man😆😆😆😆😆
gota love the 80s it was a great time to be a teenager ! best years of my life !
How sad that you think it's been going down hill ever since.
masterkush420 absolutely. Xxx
10x on that
So true...
masterkush420 still love the 80' music... it was the best!!!
Best Record of 1988! I listened to Henry Lee Summer cassette all summer and it was gold. Every song is a hit.
I'm 64, love this song!!

Best times for sure!
It absolutely was 😉
Im 17 but man I love the classics
GOD YES
Cliche? More like a mission statement. 😉 Life is good, but it was better in the 80’s.
June 2022 and I am randomly rediscovering this song. I really liked it way back then. Excellent guitar riffs
Gotta love the side bar rabbit hole.
It came out back in Spring 1988! Were u around then?
What excellent guitar riffs?
I remember when this song came out! Will always be a fan of his ❤️🔥

Does Gaston have a concert venue? I've only driven thru. Maybe heard of an independent fair in Gaston.

No matter where he is at in his life now. A hit is a hit no matter who sings it.
He sang it tonight at a concert in New Castle Indiana and still sounded amazing at 69 yrs old.
I played high school basketball against Henry in western Indiana back in the day. He was good. A lot better than I was. I know he struggled with demons later in life. Hope he is healthy and happy.

this song just popped into my head after 30 some years. i was a big fan of this song. i remember an interview with H.L.S. when this song was a big hit. he said the were in the (ahem) entertainment part of some major city, and some said that when one of the working girls strutted by, the guy turned to watch her walk away, and said "i wish i had a girl who walked like that!" and Henry Lee thought, "now thats a song! to me, Henry Lee Summers was like a john melloncamp with more range. they were both indiana boys.
That's what I was thinkin
Moral of the story is anybody that has a choir following him around shouldn't worry about getting a girl
Love this song Henry was a good old Indiana guy very underrated should've been bigger than he was!!!!!
If he left Indiana moved out to LA and had a hate for drugs and a great manager ...he would still be on top
Just heard this song on iHeart Radio today, for the first time in forever and a day. Forgot what a great tune it was. An unabashedly fun song.
Oh, and that mullet!
Freshman year at college. Two Indiana Rock-n-Roll bands play back-2-back in a loading dock at sunset. Midwest girls shakin' what they got and the boys dancin' as best they can. Every hoot and holler multiplied by a thousand.
One of the best nights EVER!!
That sounds like the place where I saw him play near my hometown
In a comedic way expressed but true. Love is hard 2 find.
I love Henry Lee Summer ❤️ He is great. When I want to laugh I watch this video ❤️ stay safe everyone and have a good day 😘
Remember listening to this 35 years ago this week awaiting a parking slot to open up at Lee County Park in Ft Myers Beach FL for spring break!
Loved this song! Old school 80z. #still sounds good in 2020
80s and 90s was the years for music and nothing beats the 80s
all it takes,is for someone to care about him. and give him another push. and he would be back on top of his game.
Loved this song then, love it now.
Fun song, his scream near the end cracks me up every time.
JJ G gives me shivers down my neck every damn time but I love it
Me and Henry went to High School together! There was a Rock, Pop, R&B, Soul, Country and Oldie Band called the "Main Thing" which Henry later joined. He was great along with the Band Leader Rick Jeffries. Keith Strong (R.I.P.) was the Original Lead Singer (he was something like a Sidney Poitier look alike). Henry (we called him Hank) was a comedian but, we called him the "White Earl the Pearl" because his Basketball Skills and Talent was 2nd to none!!!
from one hoosier to another, henry you are the best!
Man, Henry Lee Summer had one of the best Mullets ever.
I opened for Henry Lee at Richmond Indiana Rose Festival in 1996. Great band!
Went to school with his keyboard player in the 90's.
one of my favorite of the 80's.
Simpler times! So glad I lived and experienced the 8Os as a teen age American kid! Something about the drums/symbols in this song that just make me get overwhelmed with happiness and I even tear up! Thank you Henry Lee and band! A true American classic that will forever be one of my all time favorites!
I'll never get tired of this song ever. This goofy redneck had a voice!
