I contacted Derek Holt and he recorded a short version of this song on video for my 40th wedding anniversary! My wife was floored. This like many people is our song. Thanks again Derek Holt youre the best!
That is awesome! He is a great man! One of my favorites songs of all time! Too bad the rest of the band hated it and never performed it live. It's all Derek on all of the vocals and studio musicians with his piano.
The bends on the solos alone can cut you, but the strings & harmonies just shred your heart. Being on the verge of 55 now, I can't imagine how much your heart was hurt by the loss. I'm sorry he's gone, but surely he'll never be forgotten... not as long as this song exists
I was 17 he was 19 and 43 years later, here we are. Reading the comments, isn't it amazing how many of us are still married to the loves of our lives, after all these years! When marriage and love meant something. ❣
Same here. This was the slow dance song at our reception, married the same year it was on the charts. I was 23, she was 21, and 43 amazing years later here we still are.
No reason to dog the new music ,I grew up in those times ,we took it all for granted.40 yrs ago, nobody gave two shits about these songs.If the kids dig our sounds now, its all good.
This song is beautifully written and composed. So heartfelt, brings such emotion. No music like this exists nowadays, seriously this is just a beautiful song
Who's out there listening to this classic. God I miss this song I'm 54 n I still remember where I was when I first heard this song. God I miss those days
My Soulmate in Heaven Jeffrey played me this song for me over and over for 17 years and had the cassette tape. He would light candles and have a bottle of wine, the way he looked into my eyes will forever stay in my heart until I hold.him again in beautiful Heaven ❤ I love you, I miss you, and I will always remember the true love we shared. One in a million. God I miss you 😢
@lesliedixon9225 I'm so sorry for your loss 💔🥺 I never thought the last time we talked would be the last time. I just think he is waiting for me in the next room and one beautiful day I will walk in there and he will be playing this song with his amazing smile saying, it's about time BABY DOLL! 🥰❤️ Sending you a big hug my friend! ❤️
👍♥😰, it's Love & Life...and meaning to Life I say (for no money or possessions or status captions this) I agree, even more so ---since my beautiful wife died unexpectedly 3yrs ago, from I song I knew of in my heart since the late 70s or when it came out.
I can 💯% understand & know exactly what u mean!! My husband played this always for me. Lost him Jan 2015 after 20yrs married 😢 can never unhear this song 🎼🎶💞
Just like my wife. We were married 39 years yesterday. This whole song reminds me of her. I remind her of this song ALL the time. Thank the good Lord for putting such an exceptional lady like her in my life ❤️
42 years and still going strong too. My then boyfriend, now husband, gave this song to me when we were dating and soon to be engaged..Live it still.. we both cry. He’s given me so many love songs over the years❤️❤️❤️
Let me tell you when I was 11 same thing as you I heard it when I was a boy and when I was a boy whenever I would see a cool student not my student this was the best I would sing at him
This song says it all. When I was 23 that's how my life was then I meet her and she changed my life. It would have been our 39th anniversary last month but unfortunately she pasted Dec 14 2017. Miss her so much love you sweetheart.
I can totally relate lost my husband nine months ago and this was one song he used to sing to me all the time I miss you my sweet Ron always and forever
I don't even remember hearing that term when this song was popular on the radio, that came along in the mid Eighties when hair metal unfortunately took over the airwaves. If you listen to music from the early eighties to the mid eighties there's a huge difference.
I'm thinking, Dan Fogelburg Phoenix, then Van Halen Hot For Teacher!! Man!! Some Excellent Tunage for each era if you get really into it..Classical, Boogie, Big Band, Blues and Bluegrass Hillbilly Stomp and Seger...Where are all the great NEW Tunz??????? 🤔🎶🎤🎧🎹🎸🕊🤗
This is music and tells a story about life and love. You don't see this anymore in music. Thank you to the the most underrated band the Climax Blues band
One of the most heart wrenching, emotion laden and iconic guitar solo riffs in rock ‘n’ roll history. You can almost feel your heart melt as the guitar riff starts at 1:56 and then 2:54
After 41 yrs.i can still vividly remembered this song.i was 17 yrs old 3 months older with my childhood sweetheart who became my wife,blessed with 2 children,sad to say she passed away year 2007.i can proudly say that this song is our ''love song'' thank you climax blues band..for touching our lives with your wonderful song.
Beautiful song that says what a lot of guys, like me, felt when that right woman entered our lives, at the right time. This song is very dear to me... Thanks for sharing
RIP keyboardist Arthur Wood, vocalist and harmonica player Colin Cooper, and guitarist and vocalist Pete Haycock all 3 taken from us waaay too soon : - (
To todays generation, this is what you call music. Listen closely, no cursing, no threats ,no calling women whores, no auto tune. Talented musicians, period.
Many of us women were caring and loving toward these situations back in the 1970's. The fond memories of genuine love was a big part of our generation.... This song is a prime example
it’s a whole new world since this song was playing… not a better world, just a new one. i miss the way america was then… the nostalgia from this song hits you like a truck…first kisses, love had, love lost, just growing up, and the girl you were crazy in love with, but we’re afraid to talk to her 😂
I was 16 and My Boyfriend was 18 he would always play this song to me through the years and now here we are 32 years later and we still play this song to each other ❤️💞❤️
LYRICS When I was younger, man, I hadn't a care Fooling around, hitting the town, growing my hair You came along, and stole my heart when you entered my life Ooh, babe, you got what it takes, so I made you my wife Since then, I never looked back It's almost like living a dream And, ooh, I love you You came along from far away, and found me here I was playing around, feeling down, and hitting the beer You picked me up from off the floor, and gave me a smile You said, "You're much too young, your life ain't begun, let's walk for a while" And as my head was spinning around I gazed into your eyes And thought, ooh, I want you Thank you, babe, for being a friend, and shining your light in my life 'Cause, ooh, I need you As my head was coming round, I gazed into your eyes And thought, ooh, I want you Thanks again for being my friend, and straightening out my life 'Cause, ooh, I need you Since then, I never looked back, it's almost like living a dream Ooh, I got you If ever a man had it all, it would have to be me And, ooh, I love you
I always thought this was LEO SAYER. Surprised to learn it is Climax Blues Band. The same band that sings "I kept on looking for the sign in the middle of the night".
This was before my time but I absolutely love finding gems like this song! So great ! Had me so emotional out of nowhere! Thinking of my wife and how much she means to me! I must have played this song 5 times having never heard it before! Epic story god I love music!
What an awesome song. I used to hear it on the radio all the time but I never really HEARD it til now! How is that possible? It's beautiful but I never saw that in it before
HERE YOU GO: Climax Blues Band - I love you 1981 When I was younger man I hadn't a care Foolin' around, hittin' the town, growing my hair You came along and stole my heart when you entered my life Ooh babe you got what it takes so I made you my wife Since then I never looked back It's almost like living a dream And ooh I love you You came along from far away and found me here I was playin' around, feeling down, hittin' the beer You picked me up from off the floor and gave me a smile You said you're much too young, your life ain't begun, let's walk for a while And as my head was spinnin' 'round I gazed into your eyes And thought ooh I want you Thank you babe for being a friend And shinin' your light in my life 'cause ooh I need you (Instrumental) As my head was comin' round I gazed into your eyes And thought ooh I want you Thanks again for being my friend And straightenin' out my life 'cause ooh I need you (Instrumental) Since then I never looked back It's almost like livin' a dream Ooh I got you If ever a man had it all It would have to be me And ooh I love you.
Beautiful song. 70s and early 80s songs were so great, clean cut,and this just tops them all. I was 11 at the time and would hear this ballad on the bus ride home on ckrc.
I’m surprised that no one really talks about this. This is the ONLY video that I’ve ever seen, spot-on vocals to the actual recording of this song. It’s amazing. Either this was the REAL RECORDING of this song.. or they perfected this live recording to match the studio recording. I’m not sure if that’s even possible. As I see it..these are live vocals coming out of their mics here. Amazing.. and Crazy.
Had this tune 82 on a Maxell C90 Cassette..... only this one song.... over and over me and my girlfriend listened to this magnificent Love Song. Still gives me goosebumps!
Just celebrated my 40th wedding anniversary with my love be and my head still spins and my eyes shine at him. Beautiful beautiful song. This is the best and my love does tell me "I got you" still. Remember we only have this day. Love and blessings to you all. ❤
Love of my life, father of our 2 beautiful kids & soulmate, destined other half, STILL SMH why u were taken away from me & r babies I'll never understand. But hearing this makes me know ur here when I need u xoxo 😘✌️😘

Super human😂🎉

Ain't many humans left, I can tell you that much...

Love your story.
You should share that on TH-cam! I’d watch it. ❤
Cute! Love it! Bless him for doin that. ❤❤
Derek Holt is an awesome and kind gentleman for sure!!! Bless him for doing that for you and your wife ♥
That is awesome! He is a great man! One of my favorites songs of all time! Too bad the rest of the band hated it and never performed it live. It's all Derek on all of the vocals and studio musicians with his piano.
This was our wedding song...still together 25 years!!! ❤
Mine too, but unfortunately ours didn't make it.

42 years ago when I first heard this I had no idea just how beautiful this song is. No one writes like this anymore...
Absolutely

But i heard During 90's only Radio Fm
🎉 One of my ALL-time Lifetime Favorite Songs 🎵 🎶
I’m 58, LOVE this song, been on my top 5 songs forever
Very true ! No one writes like this anymore!
My husband passed away last august at 55 and was a brilliant musician and he played this often for me.
The bends on the solos alone can cut you, but the strings & harmonies just shred your heart. Being on the verge of 55 now, I can't imagine how much your heart was hurt by the loss. I'm sorry he's gone, but surely he'll never be forgotten... not as long as this song exists
@@kurttimothy139 thank you. That was a beautiful reply.
Such a beautiful song! I lost my wife of 43 years 6 months ago and hearing this again brought me to me knees

So sorry to hear of your loss... Hope this song brings you "some" comfort
One ticket please to go back in this era.
One way ticket
Make that 3 one way ticket's please.

This is a truly beautiful song. We also, I feel, have great musicians and songs current day. No need to be negative about it.

I agree, even more so ---since my beautiful wife died unexpectedly 3yrs ago, from I song I knew of in my heart since the late 70s or when it came out.
My husband used to play this song for me when we first married ad still plays it for me 36 years later. Such a classic!
Those 70s guys were so Awsome!
Your husband's a keeper. So I guess you did ;O)
I can 💯% understand & know exactly what u mean!! My husband played this always for me. Lost him Jan 2015 after 20yrs married 😢 can never unhear this song 🎼🎶💞

Can't help tearing-up nearly every time listening to this lyric:
"If ever a man had it all, it would have to be me". What a feeling that must be.
It truly is!! I'm extremely fortunate to have lived this!
Beautiful song . They don't get any better than this love song.
I SAY IT EVERY DAY
Brings back old memories of a good old girl i missed all those years onto tomorrow's magic yesterday's long gone ...
Oh, it is! 42 years this August! ;)
Just like my wife. We were married 39 years yesterday. This whole song reminds me of her. I remind her of this song ALL the time. Thank the good Lord for putting such an exceptional lady like her in my life ❤️
Does her boyfriend like the song too?
One of the most under rated band, a very classic song. Timeless
Absolutely, but they got a whole bunch of air time here in new orleans
@@danonoveh8114 This song was played a lot here in Australia.
@@danonoveh8114 ABSOLUTELY AGREE!!!
I remember it lots as a young boy on radio in duluth mn
Who exactly "under rated" this band ??? Hilarious...
Makes me cry songs like this will never be made again no faith into 2023 music😢
Music has pretty much been “over” since like 2003. It sucks. 😢
70s and 80s was by far the best bands and songs we'll ever hear so fortunate to grow up in that time
This was and is our song. Thirty-eight years and still going strong.
That is awesome
Love is Strong!
42 years and still going strong too. My then boyfriend, now husband, gave this song to me when we were dating and soon to be engaged..Live it still.. we both cry. He’s given me so many love songs over the years❤️❤️❤️
todays music doesn't even come close
Same 38 years here too awesome song ooh the memories
The era where beautiful songs were written...this is one of the golden song.
Can you believe the band hated this song, would support it with a tour. WB loved it as did Derek, basically led to him leaving the band.
Listening in September 2024❤
Listening still
Lost my husband of 20 years ago.. 11 months ago. Think he wanted me to hear this song 🎵 tonight.❤️
I couldn't remember the name of the song or the band, so it's nothing short of a miracle that I found it 🙂
Let me tell you when I was 11 same thing as you I heard it when I was a boy and when I was a boy whenever I would see a cool student not my student this was the best I would sing at him
One of the best love songs of all time! ❤😊
The Best Love Song.
*"YES"*
*"Period!♡¡""*
It is my FAVOURITE love song of all time
My Carol. We had 10 years under our belt when this came out. God took you in 2002. My Own True Love, I'm still empty. Love Your Johnny ❤❤
No one puts their heart in to their music anymore . today's music just don't have it , like yesteryear music did .
I grew up in the 70 s and 80s. I feel i was blessed greatly with all the wonderful music. Such good memories!
This song says it all. When I was 23 that's how my life was then I meet her and she changed my life. It would have been our 39th anniversary last month but unfortunately she pasted Dec 14 2017. Miss her so much love you sweetheart.
So sorry for your loss 🌹
So very sorry for your loss and heartbreak 😞😥🌹🌹

I was 26 years old at this time when the sun came out now I’m gonna be 68 and I still love it
Now that's a great power ballad. 💝

How I still love this song after sooooo many years!! You never hear music like this anymore!!
I only hear music like this, or new Country. Whenever I hear Rap or Hip/Hop I want to ban sound
This is music and tells a story about life and love. You don't see this anymore in music. Thank you to the the most underrated band the Climax Blues band
One of the most heart wrenching, emotion laden and iconic guitar solo riffs in rock ‘n’ roll history. You can almost feel your heart melt as the guitar riff starts at 1:56 and then 2:54
yup
Love it....Mesmerized

Beautiful song that says what a lot of guys, like me, felt when that right woman entered our lives, at the right time.
This song is very dear to me...
Thanks for sharing
Until a decade passes and nothing you do makes her happy anymore
Hear hear!!!
Yea man........... 👍🎶
Exactly right Anthony.
Spot on!
RIP keyboardist Arthur Wood, vocalist and harmonica player Colin Cooper, and guitarist and vocalist Pete Haycock all 3 taken from us waaay too soon : - (
You tube. Has been a godsend
One of the best love ballads ever! Still sounds great!
To todays generation, this is what you call music. Listen closely, no cursing, no threats ,no calling women whores, no auto tune. Talented musicians, period.
Right on
So sad music is over for the new Generation
True
I think I read on here that this song basically destroyed the band, right?
Oh how True this is‼️🤟💯
This song reminds of my current girlfriend help me with so much in my life I’m very grateful for God in her in my life
Amen 🙏🏼❤
One of the best songs ever...a true masterpiece!
I agree 100%…ever.
Simply:
*"Beautifully EPIC!♡¡"*
Everrŕrrr❤
In 1981 i was 15 now im 58 enjoying it everytime
I'm so glad I grew in the 60, 70's and 80's simple the best of times!
Many of us women were caring and loving toward these situations back in the 1970's. The fond memories of genuine love was a big part of our generation.... This song is a prime example
That sustained end. "And, Oooooooooooooooooooh I love you." Cuts to the soul.
I like this song , i loveit
My favorite song growing up. I am playing it at my wedding.
This era of music was so pure and real. Wish it would come back...
Senior year in high school...what I would give to be there again.
I was awesome music
it’s a whole new world since this song was playing… not a better world, just a new one. i miss the way america was then… the nostalgia from this song hits you like a truck…first kisses, love had, love lost, just growing up, and the girl you were crazy in love with, but we’re afraid to talk to her 😂
The greatest love song ever. 30 years ago this was sung at my wedding. It was the first song we heard on our first date and remains our song.
I think I might have to agree with you!
This was our wedding song too - 40 years in July!!
It would sure be nice if we could go back to these times 2023
I used to sing this to my first wife, God rest her saintly soul. It's still one of the most magnificent declarations of love in a song ever written!
Great music period..if only new artists could do the same
One of the top 10 or 5 best ballads of all time. This song is simply beautiful... very moving.
I was 16 and My Boyfriend was 18 he would always play this song to me through the years and now here we are 32 years later and we still play this song to each other ❤️💞❤️
This is almost certainly the best love song in rock/pop history.
I was fortunate enough to reconnect with my first love from the age of 15 after my husband of 25 years passed. This is the first song he played me.
The guitar bends and tone are fantastic..
For every man that has had a good woman... a theme song, you DESERVED us. ❤😊
If they took all these great songs away and said I can only listen to todays music…I’d say “Is silence an option?”.
That song reminds me of happier times!
LYRICS
When I was younger, man, I hadn't a care
Fooling around, hitting the town, growing my hair
You came along, and stole my heart when you entered my life
Ooh, babe, you got what it takes, so I made you my wife
Since then, I never looked back
It's almost like living a dream
And, ooh, I love you
You came along from far away, and found me here
I was playing around, feeling down, and hitting the beer
You picked me up from off the floor, and gave me a smile
You said, "You're much too young, your life ain't begun, let's walk for a while"
And as my head was spinning around
I gazed into your eyes
And thought, ooh, I want you
Thank you, babe, for being a friend, and shining your light in my life
'Cause, ooh, I need you
As my head was coming round, I gazed into your eyes
And thought, ooh, I want you
Thanks again for being my friend, and straightening out my life
'Cause, ooh, I need you
Since then, I never looked back, it's almost like living a dream
Ooh, I got you
If ever a man had it all, it would have to be me
And, ooh, I love you
This is one of the greatest ballads ever made
One of the best romantic ballads written. Timeless
I always thought this was LEO SAYER. Surprised to learn it is Climax Blues Band. The same band that sings "I kept on looking for the sign in the middle of the night".
Of course, the name of that song is COULDN'T GET IT RIGHT.
This was before my time but I absolutely love finding gems like this song! So great ! Had me so emotional out of nowhere! Thinking of my wife and how much she means to me! I must have played this song 5 times having never heard it before! Epic story god I love music!
My opinion the two best decades of music was the 60's and the 80's. This song is pure magic ❤❤❤❤
This song was a big hit in the early 80s. The blues melody and the lyrics is perfect. Climax Blues Band music never fade. Cheers.
How is it you appreciate a song so much more 40 years later? One of the most beautiful love songs ever composed.
Story of my life. My wife truly changed my life. Every word of this song rings true. I deeply love my wife and best friend.
I LOVE this song. I’ve had it on repeat for a while ❤
What an awesome song. I used to hear it on the radio all the time but I never really HEARD it til now! How is that possible? It's beautiful but I never saw that in it before
ok, let's recap. it is indeed, a most perfect song. period
This was our song @ our wedding, 26 years later still have something special still going on...❤️
One of the most honest and romantic songs ever written
HERE YOU GO:
Climax Blues Band - I love you 1981 When I was younger man I hadn't a care Foolin' around, hittin' the town, growing my hair You came along and stole my heart when you entered my life Ooh babe you got what it takes so I made you my wife Since then I never looked back It's almost like living a dream And ooh I love you You came along from far away and found me here I was playin' around, feeling down, hittin' the beer You picked me up from off the floor and gave me a smile You said you're much too young, your life ain't begun, let's walk for a while And as my head was spinnin' 'round I gazed into your eyes And thought ooh I want you Thank you babe for being a friend And shinin' your light in my life 'cause ooh I need you (Instrumental) As my head was comin' round I gazed into your eyes And thought ooh I want you Thanks again for being my friend And straightenin' out my life 'cause ooh I need you (Instrumental) Since then I never looked back It's almost like livin' a dream Ooh I got you If ever a man had it all It would have to be me And ooh I love you.
awesome!!! never gets old a true national treasure!!!
This is just awesome!!! I remember when this song was on the radio like it was yesterday!!!
“If ever a man had it all, it would be me.” That line speaks volumes and it is timeless.” ♥️♥️

As I see it..these are live vocals coming out of their mics here. Amazing.. and Crazy.
Had this tune 82 on a Maxell C90 Cassette..... only this one song.... over and over me and my girlfriend listened to this magnificent Love Song. Still gives me goosebumps!
I love that!
What’s a cassette?
