Look up the story behind this song and why he wrote it , It will make you wish there were more people like Benny Mardones in this world , He changed the girls life , she sent him a Christmas card every year till the year he die. React again after you here the story you will feel different maybe even cry
This song is NOT what it seems like. Look up the history of the song. Hint, he was telling a friend the girl that knocked on his door was 16 and to leave her alone. He's not talking talking about sex when he talks about love. The video did the song no favors and totally came off wrong and creepy.
To the DJ who is clutching his pearls! Its a young girls dream to be loved with a passion like the passion in Mr. Mardones song! Does that mean we went out looking for guys on flying carpets? Of course not! We looked at the guys in school, in the grocery store, even at church. I was 29 years old when this song came out! My husband and I had some *nights* listening to this play.I am 72 now and have never been happier about still having this song to listen to. My husband is gone, the memories are not! Thanks to Benny Mardones.
I love your unrehearsed reaction to the music in this song but I'd love to see your reaction after you learn of the history behind this beautiful song🎵 ❤🙏
The song is not about what you think it is. It was written after a friend of Benny's made a comment about a girl that he was taking care of for her mother after the father walked out. It was not about a relationship between Benny and this girl. So sad that people have to take things out of context. They need to think before they judge.
Do some research before you judge! Music companies will make videos to sell songs, even if they don't reflect the true meaning of a song. Benny Mardones has explained many, many times, about how this song was about the abandonment of a family by their father. The 16 yr old girl walked his dog every day and he paid her and her sister and brother for jobs they did for him, so they could buy food and survive! He is loved and revered by everyone in the music business, and died years ago from Parkinson's. You're a 'reverend'? You made a complete fool of yourself here, bro.
The song is great purely because of the vocal range, instrumentation and presentation. I remember when it came out, and I never judged this content of she's just 16 yrs old. So no, it doesn't encourage pedophilia, which could only be in the hearts and minds of the social weirdos. No it's only just a love song. If it encourages you to pedophilia then you need to cheek yourself. That is equivalent to saying, you saw a slicer move so you are going to go out and do the same things.
Me emociona 😢 su voz ademas que su papa era chileno y mama americana No alcanzo a dar un concierto en nuestro pais Chile 🇨🇱 lo que tanto queria, su papa vivia aca en 🇨🇱
One of the greatest love songs of all time.. Benny's voice is so rich and textured and was just one of a kind. I feel a personal loss and sadness at his passing. I hope and pray that he is singing to the angels every night with that voice. This song fills my soul with warmth and I hope that many more people get to experience this truly great hit.
It’s not what you think, look at the interview that “professor of rock” did with him before he passed away. It will change your mind about the meaning of the song.
Yes this video is controversial, but apparently they didn't think so back then. But he has a fantastic voice, could have changed a few lyrics here and there .
yeah if it was only the song amazing. the video made it literal. there are alot of songs that are questionable but than you see the video and they flipped the whole meaning.
Back then 16 was a LOT older... Or so it seemed then... I'm turning 60 this year, but I still remember being 16 and in love with a 22 year old... Didn't last, of course... Hence this song that reminds me of then. ❤
The song is not creepy the video yes the song no! People back then was not thinking about an old age man bc girls did not seek out sugar daddies like they do today she is 16 not 15 not 14 or 13 or 567 besides he may have wrote the song at an old age reminiscing about when he was 19 or 20. I love this song I was 16 my first love was 21 the song is not creepy the video yes but like I said he may have been playing it out reminiscing about his younger years get a grip
He has one of the most beautiful voices I ever heard

Please look up professor of rock Benny explains the back story of this song❤
Do your research the syory behind this beautiful song
You have to listen to the song that’s not what he’s saying
theres a backstory to this song… people say its innocent.
It’s not what you think, look at the interview that “professor of rock” did with him before he passed away. It will change your mind about the meaning of the song.

If they change the age, & a few lyrics. Would be a beautiful song..but I agree on, " pedophile anthem "
@preciousjojo7788 yeah it was
I think it's a beautiful song regardless of what anyone thinks. It's not what you think it's about. Watch the interview.
The lyrics here are PERFECT. And the history behind this song is even more beautiful ❤🙏
