I am, because I love to listen to Casey Kadem on Sundays and songs like this pop up and I have to go watch the video on TH-cam. Still love Rick Springfield.
what an amazing era. Life was so chilled out back then, , No Cell Phones, No laptops/ ipads, No internet, No Social media, No security threats, Only real fun. Growing up listening to such songs was the best time ever. Missing those days big time.
I'm 55 and actually saw Rick a few years ago. One of the best concerts ever! He can so rock with his newer music! I love that when he sang his old music he played videos from way back and even footage from General Hospital. We had awesome seats and I loved it. I don't usually buy T-shirts after but this was a no-brainer. This was one of the best experiences ever and I'm so glad he's going strong. I had such a crush on him when I was barely a teenager.
You are a hundred 💯 percent right. ❤❤❤❤.I love the 80's. My favorites; I listened to them all the time ❤❤❤❤. When my mood is off, I feel sad. Listen 80's.❤❤.
@@nargisrahman277 ALWAYS! I do the same! 😁 We are so incredibly fortunate to have these magnificent memories that take us back to the most magical time there ever was 🤩
Struck a cord that line. Was played for years, knew it and just coming back for more destroyed me for years and will never fully recover. Music then made sense and helped you cure.
As great as Jessie's Girl is, I would sure love to catch songs like this more on the radio today. You'd think that Rick only had one hit and NOTHING could be further from the truth. He had many Top 40 hits. "Love Somebody" went all the way to #5 on the charts.
Same can be said for Kansas. All they ever do is play is Carry on Wayward Son and act as if they had no other hit songs. Would love it if they played some of his other hit songs like Love Somebody, Souls, and Don't Talk to Strangers.
People who think "Jessie's Girl" is Rick's only song probably weren't around in the 80's. Rick had a lot of great songs. "State of the Heart" is my personal favorite, but this song, "Don't Talk to Strangers," "I've Done Everything for You," and "Affair of the Heart" are all great. And then there's "Bruce," which not only rocks, it's also really funny.
I agree. He is very famous and I hope I get to see him perform live on stage in Summer festival this year so I can get his autograph if he isn't very busy.
Nothing better than the 80s an amazing era of time to grow up In. the music, the fashion, the celebrities. back in time when women rocked the fashion and men were men never a question who was who. Just saying
Phoenix partied like it was 1985 yesterday. Loved him when I was 13…fast forward 38 years later, watching his high octane show here yesterday-a set list of 15+ hits- he entertained like no other! A rock solid performance and personality, Rick Springfield certainly does need to be in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame❤️
This song is almost 40 years old. I was 23 years old and in the US Air Force when this came out. Now I'm 62 after a wonderful, exciting and successful life that allowed me to retire at 48 years old. As I sit here smoking a cigar and sipping some fine single malt, I'm still rockin' and cherishing all those memories of 1984. It's been a heck of a ride!
@@Megan-1014 Thank you so much Megan! Yes true happiness these days comes in small doses for many. I wish you all the best in this holiday season and for an even better 2024! 🥰
I was 15 when this song came out. I listened to Ricks music all through high school. Just saw him in Feb. of 2016 in Harris Michigan. He never missed a lick on guitar or vocals. He sounded just as good as when I was in high school. Great show and music. Brought back lots of memories!
I met Rick Springfield in the early 1990s in Laughlin. I was there with friends and we sat at the bar for over an hour drinking with him and laughing til he had to go for a show in Vegas. Nice guy sign autographs and we bought he quite a few drinks. He appreciated we were all Veterans.
Though he'll never get much artistic "cred" from critics and peers, he's got one of the deepest and most underrated music catalogs of any artist from his era.
Last year...after 40 yrs of dreaming about it...I met this man. The best thing I could think of to say when I looked into his eyes was "I have been waiting for this since I was 9 yrs old". I felt so dumb but he was so nice. He said Oh sweetie, wrapped me in a hug and kissed the top of my head. Such a nice guy to be so nice as it was after his show and you could see ghe exhaustion in his face. I will always love you Rick ❤❤
I just have to thank Rick Springfield for making this song. When I am on the treadmill and am getting tired, this song comes on my playlist and all of a sudden my energy level goes through the roof!
The 80's were the best time of my life!!! The music, was fantastic!!!! Me and my girlfriends would be dancing all over the place, with the 80's songs.... We had the time of our lives!!! So much fun!!! Loved every bit of it!!!! ❤️❤️❤️.. 💃💃💃.. 🌹🌹..
Reminds me when I was in highschool : I was..... 14 and today I'm 54 and still love that song !!!.... By the way I'm French and I used to leave in Irving Texas when I was young !.....
Hey I'm french too and I lived in Boise Idaho from 1975 To 1986 then I came back To France ! And I love Rick Springfield ❤❤❤ bonjour de Bordeaux 😉😉😉🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷
I miss the States so much but most of my family lives in France I have cousins in Boise ID but haven't been there since 1992! Le bonjour au Cannois et Cannoises of course😉😉
@@corinnechevreux9304 got 1 brother living in Chicago and a syster in Florida ; So we go there at least once or twice a year . Have a good day in Bordeaux et belle balade sur les quais ensoleillés !👍👍☀️☀️
It's funny we both speak fluent French but we write in english( I think english is easier than french) have a great day on the French Riviera !😉😉🇺🇸🇺🇸🇫🇷🇫🇷
I grew up in the 1980s from age 9 to age 19. If I had known that the future would have been so lame I would've enjoyed the 80s a lot more than I did. It was truly the greatest decade.
It's strange how I haven't heard this song in almost 35 years but still remember the lyrics. Probably because I listened to this 1,000 times back in '84.
Me too... I remember the lyrics to every song from 80:s early 90's I love love love all the different genres from that era We were blessed great music with people that actually had talent and could play instruments awesome movies and no technology to interrupt our fun time if you didn't talk on the phone to your friends before you left the house there was no way to get in touch with you and I actually missed that. If I could go back in a time machine and be left there in a heartbeat I would do it
Same here. I was a 1985 high school grad so got in on the good music of the 80s. I remember lyrics better than I do faces and names lol Hell, I don't recall what I did last week, but play me an 80s song I'll sing along with it every time.
One of my favorite Rick Springfield songs; must've seen "Hard to Hold" a hundred times as a teenager! This man is still super sexy and sings like time has stood still-love you Rick!!
One of the greatest guitar riffs of all time. And the mandolin type background rhythm tracks are genius. Just another great song from an artist who had to earn his stripes the hard way.
The 80s can never will never and wont ever be touched when it comes to amazing songs that meant somthing the day of the anthem is gone the hpur of the power ballad has passed thank god we can still tune out the now and go back to the 80s whenever we want
Never given the credit he deserves for his killer Guitar playing! Love Rick Springfield, he never got the memo he was supposed to Marry me!! Definitely deserves to be in the RR Hall of Fame.
Rick Springfield tickets are on the way... Can't wait. First time seeing him live! ❤️❤️❤️ It's been so long since I've been to a Concert. 91 was my last one to see NKOTB. This one will be the best one ever. OMG. I think I'm more than ecstatic.
I agree with you.... I had to come here to think about those days when I was a teen, lol. Not young anymore, about to be 50 on May 11th, 2019. Love you Rick, from a 69' baby....... 80's rocked 🎸
This song is the reason my kids watched me freak when Vince Vicente showed up on Supernatural. Loved this song. Loved Rick just like anyone with eyes or ears did in the 80's. Watching him on the tv screen again made me so happy & very nostalgic.
I remember around 1983 when I used to get a magazine with current musicians and discovered what he looked like. Being from a very small Texas town we didn’t have a barbershop so I took the page with his picture on it to the local beauty shop and said that’s how I wanted to get my haircut. That was the beginning of my mullet stage and it still brings back great memories. Then around ‘85 I was lucky enough to see him live and Corey Hart opened up for him. Do y’all remember “I wear my sunglasses at night “? The 80’s was an awesome time to grow up in!
For too long... I looked for love in a man. And now, I recognize love in my mother and children. The one's who REALLY needed me to love them. Love songs are great, but send the wrong message. Love isn't just found between a man and a woman. Love is found in ourselves, our children, parents, neighbors, friends, strangers, pets, and in appreciation of life. LOVE is everywhere. The Holy Spirit is LOVE, and LOVE makes the world go around in ALL forms. 💜🌎
I actually saw this movie in the theater - 1983!! I was a freshman in college ,three hours from home. My GF and I saw RS in concert that year. She LOVED HIM - (what girl didn't, right?) First major concert I had ever attended. I was BLOWN AWAY! Incredibly enough, I STILL HAVE THE T-SHIRT!! ............. unbelievable.........
I started high school in 1979. I finished college in 1989. Yeah - the "six year" college plan. I was a slow learner. But I would have NEVER made it though school with out .... **MTV**!!! And it was right about the end of 1989 when the music videos started waning, taking back seat to the likes of "Road Rules" and the game show, "Remote Control". Remember that?? I remember like it was yesterday, and yet, it might as well be a million years ago. . . . . unreal. . . . . . .
Started listening to him in 1972 when I was 5. He was touring during the Vietnam war and we were stationed on a tiny island in the Pacific. Thank you Rick for a life time of music
I just love Rick! I started watching him on General Hospital as Dr. Noah Drake! I love him as an actor but I think I love him more as a rock star. He is definitely underrated.
If I could just go back to this time in the 80's when my mom and I would listen to this music every morning while I got ready for school...I don't listen to any music from today it all sucks!
Not all of it sucks there is still every now and again good singles or albums......But the 80's just had a whole load of good to very good singles and albums
There was no internet (not really), and no Sirius XM and all that. All we had was radio and 3 channels on TV :p (well, I guess by this time we had like 30 channels)...and no talk radio. Everyone listend to radio, music HAD to be good.
Ummm - we actually had MTV. You know - back when they actually played video music? And you'd sit in front of it all day long because it was absolutely the coolest thing you ever saw? EVER!!
I saw the movie in a little latin city ( in 1984 or 85.. maybe..) .. with other 30 persons,.. in the next day, the movie just, wasn't there.... Thanks for bring back those good memories today.
Rick Springfield was my first concert I was 15 years old. Loved him then and love him still today. Sad the teenagers now have no idea what good music is.
i’m probably the only teenager in 2019 who actually wishes modern music could be as good as 80’s music... everyone else of my generation is obsessed with music that i just don’t feel the same about

I was a kid in grade school in the 80s and there was a show on NBC called Friday Night Videos that my mom always watched and I got to stay up late and watch it with her so even though I was young, I knew a lot of the 80s music. Now that she's gone, I hear 80s music and it brings back great memories of her and watching that show and listening to records with her.
It’s 2023 who’s still listening to Rick Springfield Love Somebody
80’s music will forever live.
ほんとに80年代の名曲は永遠に色褪せないですよね✨

Me too. Miss the 70's and 80's so much(i m born 1965),everything was so freakin calm and easy back then. Good music by REAL musicans.!!
I agree with you. Best years of my life.
Life was so chill when all we had to worry about was lead paint and chemical sprays and mutually assured destruction.
And we are better for it!!!
I’m 21 wish I lived to see the 80s

He was the quintessential rock star
I bet you married a guy named Jesse too. Liked the story...
I miss the eighties everything was so different you felt like the world was at your feet
This song should've been a number 1 hit on the pop charts. It's a great song.
I think so, too
OH HELL YEAH.
Amen!!
I had thought it was. Even if “Hard to Hold” bombed, the soundtrack sold well.

MY FAVORITE RICK SPRINGFIELD SONG!!!
June 14,2024 ❤ who’s listening to this ? 🙌 I am
too🎉
🎉
Me too. In 2025 and forever...
😊❤love this man!
Nobody
This is Rick's best song if you ask me, extremely underrated singer, SONGWRITER and guitarist he was and still is.
Hello Laura!
Sounds like "Born To Run" by The Boss.
I THINK ITS HIS BEST.
Very underated.
No his best is zoot, he was a rock guitar god, this is just fluff candy and he was just writing to make his, his original work in zoot is way better
THE EIGHTIES WOULD OF NEVER SOUNDED SO GOOD IF IT WASNT FOR YOU RICK SPRINGFIELD....IT WAS ALL YOU😇❤
Hello Ronda!
I love Rick but there so many great artists in the 80's that made that decade the best just happy he was part of it one of my fav
When I listen Rick Springfield, I always feel 20 years younger :) His music and voice makes me always happy
Ditto ❤
After all these years, Rick is still the prototype for the 1980s rock star in my mind.
Mine too
Amen
You misspelled, John Cougar.
MUCH better than Bon Jovi, IMHO
Damn right!
The 80's will live on forever in our minds, our hearts and OUR SOULS! it can't be touched! It was a magical time

Keep fighting the depression, Rick. Don't surrender. Don't give up.
"I can see the path you're cutting, cost me a little piece of my heart." What an opening line ! One of the best.

I met Rick Springfield in the early 1990s in Laughlin. I was there with friends and we sat at the bar for over an hour drinking with him and laughing til he had to go for a show in Vegas. Nice guy sign autographs and we bought he quite a few drinks. He appreciated we were all Veterans.
Aaggh, I am so insanely jealous 😫!! Seriously though, I'm so glad you got to have that experience, it sounds so exciting!
💖🕊️
He did many tours in Vietnam in the early 70s

Thank God for the 80's and Thank God for Rick Springfield! Still Great to this day and will be forever!
For too long... I looked for love in a man. And now, I recognize love in my mother and children. The one's who REALLY needed me to love them. Love songs are great, but send the wrong message. Love isn't just found between a man and a woman. Love is found in ourselves, our children, parents, neighbors, friends, strangers, pets, and in appreciation of life. LOVE is everywhere. The Holy Spirit is LOVE, and LOVE makes the world go around in ALL forms. 💜🌎
I actually saw this movie in the theater - 1983!! I was a freshman in college ,three hours from home. My GF and I saw RS in concert that year. She LOVED HIM - (what girl didn't, right?) First major concert I had ever attended. I was BLOWN AWAY! Incredibly enough, I STILL HAVE THE T-SHIRT!! ............. unbelievable.........
I started high school in 1979. I finished college in 1989. Yeah - the "six year" college plan. I was a slow learner. But I would have NEVER made it though school with out .... **MTV**!!! And it was right about the end of 1989 when the music videos started waning, taking back seat to the likes of "Road Rules" and the game show, "Remote Control". Remember that?? I remember like it was yesterday, and yet, it might as well be a million years ago. . . . . unreal. . . . . . .
Rick is still the MAN. 😂 Lots of love for you to this day....40 years later ❤❤❤❤❤
Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support❤️❤️
I remember coming home from school and seeing him on my mom's soaps. As I did my homework. My uncle had a few of his albums.
One of his best songs.
a very true 80s hit!!!
Started listening to him in 1972 when I was 5. He was touring during the Vietnam war and we were stationed on a tiny island in the Pacific. Thank you Rick for a life time of music
Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support💖
The guys sure HARD TO HOLD❤
I just love Rick! I started watching him on General Hospital as Dr. Noah Drake! I love him as an actor but I think I love him more as a rock star. He is definitely underrated.
Hello Angie!
If I could just go back to this time in the 80's when my mom and I would listen to this music every morning while I got ready for school...I don't listen to any music from today it all sucks!
Not all of it sucks there is still every now and again good singles or albums......But the 80's just had a whole load of good to very good singles and albums
There was no internet (not really), and no Sirius XM and all that. All we had was radio and 3 channels on TV :p (well, I guess by this time we had like 30 channels)...and no talk radio. Everyone listend to radio, music HAD to be good.
Ummm - we actually had MTV. You know - back when they actually played video music? And you'd sit in front of it all day long because it was absolutely the coolest thing you ever saw? EVER!!
I agree with you today's music sucks. too much political involved n especially Rap music sucks. I love growing up in the 80 I wish I can go back
Same I totally agree I don't listen to any music from today. It's pure garbage!! I am truly an 80's girl trapped in the wrong decade.
This is such a great song ❤🥰👍 heavy drums, hungry guitars, soulfully lyrics and a great voice 😊 you've all done right! Love it 😊 👍 🥰
I saw the movie in a little latin city ( in 1984 or 85.. maybe..) .. with other 30 persons,.. in the next day, the movie just, wasn't there.... Thanks for bring back those good memories today.
I remember this video back on MTV in the 1980s (when they play music videos). One of the Rick Springfield songs that I still listen to occasionally.
Rick Springfield was my first concert I was 15 years old. Loved him then and love him still today. Sad the teenagers now have no idea what good music is.
What a great first concert!!! I would LOVE to see him even today 😍
i’m probably the only teenager in 2019 who actually wishes modern music could be as good as 80’s music... everyone else of my generation is obsessed with music that i just don’t feel the same about
You're not alone...80s were great, I know, I grew up then :)
Rock on! You have great taste!
infires.plus.bts there’s lots of us!!
Well, i'm a teenager too and i'd wish i could go back to those times
Just be yourself and have fun.... 80s was a great decade for fun and music and I am glad you appreciate it...
I saw this movie in theaters when it came out. I had a major crush on this gorgeous man. Still do!!

I miss the 80th so very much. .they had the most Amazing music songs! I Love that era, Best music Ever♥♥♥
I so agree..we were sooo lucky to grow up then ..high school and jr high days.
Ditto!
Yes the Best Ever - We are on the same page - great music
NOTHING comes close to the energy and optimism of this music! LONG LIVE MTV!!!!!!
Original too, not a cover/ stolen sample like everything now. Looks not important, the music was all that mattered.
This song has made me happy since the 80:s :-)
80s were the best
underrated singer
not an underrated singer at all
which really means nothing. lol
no hes not!!
Sanz80 he has been rated correctly
I agree Sanz80. I don't think Rick ever really got the credit he deserved. He was awesome in his prime!
20 more days and I'll get to see you Live for the first time. Can't wait. ❤❤❤
Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support❤️❤️
No other way to listen to his music but LOUD. That is how it was at the concert. Even being outside.
Rick was the best
Musicians have forgotten how to make good music , Rick was the man !
Timeless!!!
I remember seeing “Hard to Hold” at the drive in with my best friend and my sister ...I couldn’t stop drooling over Rick 🤤

HE KNOWS WHAT HE IS LOVE HIM AND WILL BE CONNECT WITH HIM
I was a kid in grade school in the 80s and there was a show on NBC called Friday Night Videos that my mom always watched and I got to stay up late and watch it with her so even though I was young, I knew a lot of the 80s music. Now that she's gone, I hear 80s music and it brings back great memories of her and watching that show and listening to records with her.
Hello Randall!
Please send me back to the 80s....get me outta of 2019.
