was 16 or 17 when this heavenly bomb dropped and have loved it ever since... we used to do the "bump" to it at high sch dances. Paul Carrack is a PHENOM in the music world and a stellar human. LOVE HIM
The guy has been around a long long time now , to an extent your correct, so widely respected by other artists, always the guy who could fit into band , very versatile. Iv always liked him , seen him several times and will again in a few weeks time , in short he is a musicians musician, Very nice guy too 👍
He is the musician’s musician. So many great musicians wanted to work with him, and he showed up on so many projects that he made better for being involved with them.
He got too much soul ( as if there's such a thing) But us Brothers and sisters LOOOVE THIS GUY. For years I used to brag he was black ... Serious compliment and HEAR THAT HARMONY.. THE BANDS BACK UP WAS BACK IN CHURCH. My dad preached so I was there with them haha. Thank you for posting this God-bless you.....
I’m 65, will be 66 in two weeks. I was in the Air Force stationed at Torrejon AB, just outside of Madrid Spain when this song was released by Ace. As most young GI’s, a nice stereo system was as vital as air. When I got this album, I wore it out playing it over and over. This song brought all of that back.
Still one of the best live performers I’ve ever seen. Do yourself a favour and make sure you get tickets next time he’s at venue near by. You will not be disappointed.
Thank you Paul. This one of the best songs ever written. It sounds as great today as it did in the 70s. You are still an awesome singer. Always loved this, and still do. Thanks again for bringing so much pleasure to our lives with your music. Love you man.
You bet it is. Man I'm so glad that guys like these are still around to let the younger folks no just how blessed we were in the seventies and eighties music Era. Enjoy young folks!
The guy in the background with the black shirt and white vest, black hair, well his smile is infectious. He makes me happy!!! Love this performance by all those involved!!
Paul you made it in the living room at the very best. Seeing so many people of different age being unite in happiness singing along this great song makes we wish to be there with you. I love this song since I heard the first time more than 45 years ago...simply amazing.
Paul Carrack has appeared on many other artists recordings over the years...his voice is so adaptable to just about any kind of music...multi talented on so many levels. I've always had the impression Paul never wanted to be pigeon holed musically and prefers intimate settings for his performances...what a gift he remains to all music lovers. I have his CD's programed into my IPod and blast the shit out of them while driving...my favorites "Sleep On It"..."Eyes of Blue"..."Let Me Love Again"...I could go on and on.... absolutely adore the sounds of Paul Carrack.
Discovered this songs accidentally when listening to rocks and classics. Now it's like a melody in mind when anything suspicious comes up, I sing out loud how long.😅
I love his version with Eric Clapton but this is much more intimate...wish I'd been there, I'd have been singing on the top of my really bad voice.. Paul is so talented
this is one of the greatest songs ever - and I was so fortunate to have a sing along with Paul and Paul Jones when they were both touring in Manfred Mann many year ago in Australia - I will never forget that night !
up to 236,205 views, and I must have contributed at least 50+ of these. I just love this version and Oh what a band. This single video clip got me seriously into Paul Carrack. What a talent. Live music at it's best. Love the little girls smile at 3.28. Watch a true artist at work with her Dad, just loving the moment.
When you see a band light up, smiles and enjoyment of the music all around and settle in the groove of a classic pop track, maybe one of the best ever.
I just listened to a bunch of versions of this song. I LOVE the use of organ in this one. And Paul Carrack sounds better than he did when younger. Real talent! And the sound is pretty good being played in someone's house. :-)
Back in 1987, i was working at WKZL, Winston-Salem....Paul Carrack dropped by as he was promoting his new song "dont shed a tear". I had a chance to spend a while with him....incredibly SUPER NICE guy!! What a stellar singer too.
Funny how, while the lyrics are sad, everybody is so happy to join in to the singing. It's the power of music and Paul Carrack just nailed it.
It’s about a former band member moonlighting with another band behind their backs with intent to leave. It’s not about infidelity like most believe.
@@RickStamler Ah, interesting. Didn't know that.
@RickStamler it's still an infidelity. Thre are many ways to e cheated on, lied to, and taken advantage of.
Take note kids this is what real music and musicians sound like 👌🏻
In 2022, still one of the best songs ever written.
Agree
Can't argue. It is a timeless, brilliant, melodic gem
Still sounds the same as when first recorded the man's voice just gets better with age
was 16 or 17 when this heavenly bomb dropped and have loved it ever since... we used to do the "bump" to it at high sch dances. Paul Carrack is a PHENOM in the music world and a stellar human. LOVE HIM
70's......How Long
80's......Tempted
90's......Over My Shoulder
Three timeless classics all sung by one man.
Don’t forget The Living Years.
Paul carrack one of the best kept secrets in music. He has never got the recognition he deserves FACT
ABSOLUTELY!

Agreed,Paul Carrack is great,”don’t shed a tear”was a great song.
He got too much soul ( as if there's such a thing)
But us Brothers and sisters LOOOVE THIS GUY.
For years I used to brag he was black ...
Serious compliment and HEAR THAT HARMONY..
THE BANDS BACK UP WAS BACK IN CHURCH. My dad preached so I was there with them haha. Thank you for posting this God-bless you.....
Awesome. I'm 63 and I feel it's been a part of my life forever.
I’m 65, will be 66 in two weeks. I was in the Air Force stationed at Torrejon AB, just outside of Madrid Spain when this song was released by Ace. As most young GI’s, a nice stereo system was as vital as air. When I got this album, I wore it out playing it over and over. This song brought all of that back.
72 and my song. It's my life story.
Thankyou god for making me born in 1960.
The music has been incredible........up to 1986.😅
Me too 😁 also born in 1960 Soo blessed!
Kenn den Song 30 Jahre und länger, hör ich immer mal wieder gerne,ne tolle Nummer halt!👍😊
Still one of the coolest songs ever. Forever relevant.
Stephen Carpenteri And now that Amazon Prime thinks so, everyone is hearing it! I hope Paul got a huge pay day!
Excelente
Still one of the best live performers I’ve ever seen. Do yourself a favour and make sure you get tickets next time he’s at venue near by. You will not be disappointed.

Thank you Paul. This one of the best songs ever written. It sounds as great today as it did in the 70s. You are still an awesome singer. Always loved this, and still do. Thanks again for bringing so much pleasure to our lives with your music. Love you man.

Too bad that he passed away a few years ago

I have heard a few versions of this song by Paul Carrack. All of them are excellent. Great song! Great singer!
When I win the lottery I want Paul to sing in my living room. WOW Fantastic.
He is a real Human > perhaps not SO expensiv!!
@@fpso3936 Just buy him a Sheffield Wednesday season ticket and he'll do it!
Lovely song Paul. Very honest, emotional. Love it 🖖😬
There are very few that can still do it...he is one
His voice is still amazing 😍

This is the best version ever, Paul has a great perfomance and this characteristic voice, simply amazing, for me world music heritage.
I love his version with Eric Clapton but this is much more intimate...wish I'd been there, I'd have been singing on the top of my really bad voice.. Paul is so talented

This was the song for ALL of the bands from Exeter to include in their set. What pure talent. We owe you so much Mr. Carrick.
One of my favourite tracks from Paul carrack 👍
When you see a band light up, smiles and enjoyment of the music all around and settle in the groove of a classic pop track, maybe one of the best ever.
so true!!
Esta versión de How Long es la que más me gusta, por ser en vivo y en un ambiente muy intimista. TREMENDA BANDA, TREMENDAS LAS CUATRO VOCES DEL CORO
One of the best singers around 😀👍
I just listened to a bunch of versions of this song. I LOVE the use of organ in this one. And Paul Carrack sounds better than he did when younger. Real talent! And the sound is pretty good being played in someone's house. :-)

The perfect song! Some songs are just perfection and this is one of them!!
What a talented man.......
this was real Paul Carrack! thank you!
One of my favorite songs.
Ever since I first heard this song in the seventies it has been one of my favourites!
He sounds good
I keep coming back to this live version! This song its nuts! and good to know Paul Carrack is still going!
Wow... What a treat!
I always thought this was done by a "soul" group here in the U.S. One thing is true: they got a lot of soul!
it was..this is a cover.
@@innis52carra didn't you hear him say it was the first song he wrote. It was a hit for Ace.. his band. Anything done in America was a cover
MASTERPIECE, can't stop singing it
Memories. A true classic. Tank you Paul.
Wow again absolutely superb say no more ❤
Klasse.!! Super Song !! Danke Paul.!!
THIS song rocks, an all timer, turn it up at your next gathering. see what happens !
One of my favourite songs sung by a brilliant musician. Good job that bass player did the dirty on you otherwise it would never have been written. ❤
This is a really nice break from all the virus hysteria.
Amem to that
yesssssss
Yes, you are totally right! Here in Brazil we have a doctor who called "fraudemic" this hysterical pandemic....
