Love Paul Carrick he is one of three British singers, on my list, that is on the top of the list along with Paul Rogers and Tom Jones. Best 3 possibly in the world! Respected globally. FAB
I had a dad. He died a month ago. He wasn't my biological dad but he was my dad. Never got a long with him him when i was a kid. Could never do anything right but i wanted to live up to his standards and make him proud of me. Now im a step dad and i want to be the kind of step dad to my step kids that my dad was to me. I love you dad
Unfortunately, you rarely get the credit you deserve for being a step-dad until your dead. Then they say the same thing you did. Hope it works out better for you. Didn't for me.
@aliensarereal7832, Granted, it is much more complex being a step-father than a father; however, fathers are typically not appreciated until they are gone either since a good father is a strong, "silent hand" that provides children order, emotional strength and confidence through discipline (the bad cop in the good cop/bad cop dynamic). A good father's contribution becomes obvious when his time is cut short raising his kids and the kids struggle mightily.
@@TheWealthOfNationz That was a beautiful comment. But in my case, in hindsight, I wish now that I would have invested all that time and sacrifice into myself. I need instant gratitude and I appear to be the only one that appreciates what I do. I now look out for me and let everyone do the same.
😥 Good for you Kevin, I am sorry your bio. father wasn't there to raise you, but your outlook on raising your own step-children is so inspiring & it will be a way to bless those children & yourself at the same time ! It can be a way of healing for you, as well :)
Paul Carrack.... Carrack... Carrick... Could be a variant of Carregg, gaelic for Rock. Paul Rock.... Paul rocks!! Been listening to you since 1975. Steady as a Rock.
I dont think enough people in the World realize what a terrific entertainer this guy is. Not only with Mike & Mechanics, but in various capacities, plays various instruments. Fabulous been a fan since decades
Incredible, he was holding back and keeping it dialed back for most of the song since he might not have the same vocal dexterity as when he was younger. But that final chorus at 5:00 he unleases and hits those absolute golden high notes. So much respect to this man for his God-given talent and incredible musicianship. We are lucky to share a world with him.
This song>>>>. ....The first week of September in 1980 my father died, and I wasn't there. Nine months later in the first month of June, and 8 years after being told I could never have children, my son was born.
I really admire Shawn for not wanting the spotlight and red carpet treatment. But at the same time most of the world never got to hear and experience the greatest voice to ever come along !!! But that’s the way he wanted to live his life and I’m sure he has had a much happier life than to have all the fame and fortune.
Felt so emotional watching this video. I always think of my late dad listening to this song. It was Mike & the mechanics that I had tuned in to. But to date, Thanks for the Live version. Sounded really beautiful. Regards from Bougainville Island, Buka, PNG.😂😅
I remember this song when it was number 1 in 1988 playing every morning on the school bus on way to my high school I didn’t understand the song then so didn’t care for it 30 years later and a lot of time gone and people passed I get it
Wow I love Paul Carrack, my 90 year old Mothet is now another huge fan after she asked me to take her to see him at the Lowery Theatre in Manchestet. What do you think of that Paul ❤ keep singing as we LOVE YOU
My dad was in hospice the last time I saw him alive. I was on a film crew headed to Nashville TN to film a segment of the TV show America's Castles. Tornadoes were everywhere as we drove into town. I remember the sirens going off as I said to my dad I love you dad. he had't spoken in a few years and had almost no emotion but that day a tear came out of his left eye and just hung on his cheek. he didn't have to speak for him to know my love was deep. I miss that man today. He died 3 days later and I'm in Monaco filming another TV s episode.
You can watch Paul do this, sitting at the piano or the guitar… What a magical, incredible voice, the lyrics, the meaning❤🎶 this song has been with me for a long time and means so much.
I had many differences with my Dad, it wasn't until my 30s that i resolved them,sadly at 49 i lost him.i wish he was still here, i have so much more i want to say. This song made me resolve those issues and difficult times we had when i was a child way back when this was released. Do it today, go see him, son or daughter go to him and sort it, then enjoy your time you both have left together. RIP DAD (John) Thanks BA Robertson (check the writers version) it was his experience in the lyrics he wrote. just copy and paste this (ba robertson living years above ) and also you will hear the name of the young babys real name from the song, and there is a surprize at the end of video(i wont tell you,it will spoil it), you think this version makes you cry watch this one the way it was meant to be.
Not Paul's best possible rendition but good on so many levels. I love the occasional Hammond organ flourishes and the bass player speaks up now and again. The energy among the backup singers is priceless.
Every generation Blames the one before And all of their frustrations Come beating on your door I know that I'm a prisoner To all my Father held so dear I know that I'm a hostage To all his hopes and fears I just wish I could have told him in the living years Oh, crumpled bits of paper Filled with imperfect thought Stilted conversations I'm afraid that's all we've got You say you just don't see it He says it's perfect sense You just can't get agreement In this present tense We all talk a different language Talking in defence Say it loud (say it loud), say it clear (oh say it clear) You can listen as well as you hear It's too late (it's too late) when we die (oh when we die) To admit we don't see eye to eye So we open up a quarrel Between the present and the past We only sacrifice the future It's the bitterness that lasts So don't yield to the fortunes You sometimes see as fate It may have a new perspective On a different day And if you don't give up, and don't give in You may just be okay So say it loud, say it clear (oh say it clear) You can listen as well as you hear Because it's too late, it's too late (it's too late) When we die (oh, when we die) To admit we don't see eye to eye I wasn't there that morning When my Father passed away I didn't get to tell him All the things I had to say I think I caught his spirit Later that same year I'm sure I heard his echo In my baby's new born tears I just wish I could have told him in the living years Say it loud, say it clear (oh say it clear) You can listen as well as you hear It's too late (it's too late) when we die (it's too late when we die) To admit we don't see eye to eye So say it, say it, say it loud (say it loud) Say it clear (come on say it clear) Say it loud (Don't give up, don't give in and don't look away 'til it's too late) Say it clear Say it loud (say it loud, say it loud)

Freddie??
Chris Thompson also
Completely agree. 3 of the absolute best!
@@mc-lb9dk Well, Freddie's dead ( nod to the late Curtis Mayfield ). Tom and the Pauls are still kickin'. Rest in power, Mr. Mercury.
Wow! You have impeccable musical taste John. I'm in total agreement with you. Bravo to you from here in the USA!❤💕🌹
I had a dad. He died a month ago. He wasn't my biological dad but he was my dad. Never got a long with him him when i was a kid.

I believe you’re off to a strong start!! And I believe you’re earning the respect of those kids!!

This brings back so many deep emotions…. Timeless..beautiful..music..
Paul Carrack.... Carrack... Carrick... Could be a variant of Carregg, gaelic for Rock.
Paul Rock.... Paul rocks!!
Been listening to you since 1975. Steady as a Rock.
Kids,this is what real music and talent sounds like,great songwriter and singer with a brilliant band,this will never get old,love it
No auto tune and no synthesized vocals. That is nearly unheard of anymore.
Don’t tell them. Keep it a secret.
Great singer, wonderful song, written by BA Robertson and Mike Rutherford. Paul wrote How Long.
I dont think enough people in the World realize what a terrific entertainer this guy is. Not only with Mike & Mechanics, but in various capacities, plays various instruments. Fabulous been a fan since decades
I have always thought that the lyrics has always been the best.
Oh we know! The guy was a huge part of the 80z.
And to think he primarily played keyboards.
His voice is still magnificent .
This man has a golden voice. He endures. Great musician.
I totally adore Paul Carrack. His musicianship is outstanding. And he’s also a lovely lovely man.
Incredible, he was holding back and keeping it dialed back for most of the song since he might not have the same vocal dexterity as when he was younger. But that final chorus at 5:00 he unleases and hits those absolute golden high notes. So much respect to this man for his God-given talent and incredible musicianship.

A singular talent among the talents in the world. What a voice.
I absolutely love Paul Carrack . What a voice and entertainer . He is so very talented .
This song>>>>. ....The first week of September in 1980 my father died, and I wasn't there. Nine months later in the first month of June, and 8 years after being told I could never have children, my son was born.
Beautiful voice of paul.,Carrack and his choir and musicians,what a song ,so brilliantly written ,
How long has this been SO good! Since the 80's!! What a couple of Classics!

😆😆😆😆😆
Saw him recently, absolutely fabulous.
You are so right. I totally agree.

"I'm living proof" -one of my all time favorite songs!!! ty for this SONG! Paul your voice is a favorite to my ears!
Absolutely superb ❤
I really admire Shawn for not wanting the spotlight and red carpet treatment. But at the same time most of the world never got to hear and experience the greatest voice to ever come along !!!

This song got me through somehard times, thanks Paul 💖
Inspiational - this is the standard and the bar for live performing. This is what its all about.
Just one word for this: CLASS! 👍
The music of 80'ssss travels On the present. 2022 and beyond.
What a voice!
What a voice!
Listened to How Long every morning before going to school in my senior year, that’s 50 years ago, 1974. Couldn’t start the day without out.
Grew up with this song and singer! Such talent
I remember this song when it was number 1 in 1988 playing every morning on the school bus on way to my high school I didn’t understand the song then so didn’t care for it 30 years later and a lot of time gone and people passed I get it
This should have won Grammys for Record and Song of the year ❤
Ditto 😢😮
WHAT A WONDERFUL SONG. ENJOY.
Wow I love Paul Carrack, my 90 year old Mothet is now another huge fan after she asked me to take her to see him at the Lowery Theatre in Manchestet. What do you think of that Paul ❤ keep singing as we LOVE YOU
Rod Stewart was once quoted as saying "How Long is the greatest song ever written." He was totally correct! Bravo Paul Carrack!!💕🌹❤
fantastic no matter how many times ive watched it...
THE GREATEST VERSION OF LIVING YEARS SO FAR
Fantastic song makes me think of my father!
Wonderful message
I wasn't around when my Dad died. It broke my heart. I don't think I'll ever get over it in this lifetime. I Missed my Dad.
My dad was in hospice the last time I saw him alive. I was on a film crew headed to Nashville TN to film a segment of the TV show America's Castles. Tornadoes were everywhere as we drove into town. I remember the sirens going off as I said to my dad I love you dad. he had't spoken in a few years and had almost no emotion but that day a tear came out of his left eye and just hung on his cheek. he didn't have to speak for him to know my love was deep. I miss that man today. He died 3 days later and I'm in Monaco filming another TV s episode.

This song made me resolve those issues and difficult times we had when i was a child way back when this was released.
Do it today, go see him, son or daughter go to him and sort it, then enjoy your time you both have left together.
RIP DAD (John)
Thanks BA Robertson (check the writers version) it was his experience in the lyrics he wrote. just copy and paste this (ba robertson living years above ) and also you will hear the name of the young babys real name from the song, and there is a surprize at the end of video(i wont tell you,it will spoil it), you think this version makes you cry watch this one the way it was meant to be.
Amazazing song
I love the black chick singing that shows such great emotion.

Love you Paul. What a great vocalist and musician! I feel you every time you sing!
Awesome song!
Sooo good…❤️
I wish that I could sing like that ✌
He sings with so much love showing his love of his dad.
Although this song was written by Mike Rutherford and Brian Robertson.
Absolutely beautiful
What a freaking party! How Long rocked even more than the other song which is my favorite.
Not Paul's best possible rendition but good on so many levels. I love the occasional Hammond organ flourishes and the bass player speaks up now and again. The energy among the backup singers is priceless.
Beautiful
Todo impecable todo!!!
Fabulous....
Just fabulous xx 😊❤️
I become warm heart and feed when I'm listening
Beautiful. Thanks!
Wonderful
Exactly That Was Music
Trust me do it in the Living Years revel your truth to those mean the most to you..
Oh if I could sing like that!!
Love my Mother...Rip!
Every generation Blames the one before And all of their frustrations Come beating on your door I know that I'm a prisoner To all my Father held so dear I know that I'm a hostage To all his hopes and fears I just wish I could have told him in the living years Oh, crumpled bits of paper Filled with imperfect thought Stilted conversations I'm afraid that's all we've got You say you just don't see it He says it's perfect sense You just can't get agreement In this present tense We all talk a different language Talking in defence Say it loud (say it loud), say it clear (oh say it clear) You can listen as well as you hear It's too late (it's too late) when we die (oh when we die) To admit we don't see eye to eye So we open up a quarrel Between the present and the past We only sacrifice the future It's the bitterness that lasts So don't yield to the fortunes You sometimes see as fate It may have a new perspective On a different day And if you don't give up, and don't give in You may just be okay
So say it loud, say it clear (oh say it clear) You can listen as well as you hear Because it's too late, it's too late (it's too late) When we die (oh, when we die) To admit we don't see eye to eye I wasn't there that morning When my Father passed away I didn't get to tell him All the things I had to say I think I caught his spirit Later that same year I'm sure I heard his echo In my baby's new born tears I just wish I could have told him in the living years Say it loud, say it clear (oh say it clear) You can listen as well as you hear It's too late (it's too late) when we die (it's too late when we die) To admit we don't see eye to eye So say it, say it, say it loud (say it loud) Say it clear (come on say it clear) Say it loud (Don't give up, don't give in and don't look away 'til it's too late) Say it clear Say it loud (say it loud, say it loud)
Abra os teus dois olhos, junto com a tua sensibilidade. Consciência e tudo.
Thank you.
Great tune by Mike and the Mechanics ] somehow Paul makes it more special.
There's talent...and then there's talent.
Wonderful man
Great Singer
Love Paul what I'd give to meet him.
