Italy 1990 I was getting up early in the morning and this song was playing with this video while Mom was in the Kitchen R.I.P mom miss u and miss those time of the 90's when things was just simple..
This song is probably the one I listened to most of the times during the last 30 years. This is what I call a perfect music. This one, can not be found boring even after listening to many 1000 times. What else is a masterpiece if not this one? Eternal song from an era when the word "music" meant everything, when music was real, and people felt real joy by listening to it. Lovely!!!!!
Haaa I know the feeling 👌🏽 Same thing happened to me with Bonnie Raitt (make you love me) - I couldn’t remember any lyrics and just a whisper of a melody. ❤️
It makes me sad to listen to these songs from my life as a young kid. I miss those days I really do. My life wasn't even good but people were more real and experiences were more vivid. Time is so different now and people are so weird.
Couldn't agree more....especially about people. I strongly believe that technology such as social media has been a big factor in this. People are far more narcissistic, fake, petty, shallow, competitive, antagonistic and just plain toxic than they were before the internet and cell phone obsessed culture.
I second that. At the time, I was so kid too, and life had ups and downs. More downs though. I thought when I, "Grew up, " life would be better and easier. The world would be my oyster, as they say. Now I feel as though life is just a test. A test to see how many hurdles and disappointments one can take. If your still standing, well, I don't even know. I do know we are not robots and are not made of steel. I'm burnt out of all, "Life lessons." I want to feel more free like Maxi🥰. Dance around to this song and think only sbout a crush instead of watching the world fall apart. Everyone has an agenda. As years go by, become more selfish and vicious. Seeing Maui engulfed in flames and seeing our government hold back on assisting. The continued war with Ukraine. People at the border seeking refuge, scared to death. Trump continuing to cause a ruckus. Biden being an out of touch ghost figure who really just should of retired. The animals are dying. The planet has endeared so much neglect and abuse from us. Mother Nature is mad as hell and shows us now more then ever. I never thought so many tragic and serious things could go on around the world at one time. Well, maybe 2024 will be better?
I’m 31 years old. Just discovered this song in the midst of an extremely painful breakup….this song make me feel pain, joy, love and everything all at the same time. LOVE THIS
Сегодня 11 июля 2024 года . Мне 57 . Это песня уносит мои воспоминания в 1990 - ые годы , когда мне было 23 года . Чувствуешь себя в машине времени и снова моя душа переживает те эмоции и чувства , что переживала в то время в 1990 - ом . В то время , когда родители были живы и здоровы 😢
I thought this song was over played on the radio at the time, but listening to it now breaking down the lyrics it’s a powerful song of love for which I have newfound respect and admiration.
I was 24 that summer of '90, moved to Atlanta from Ohio to attend Morehouse College after 3 years in the Army. It was a great time, STILL is, just a few bumps and bruises now..........
It was overplayed but it’s a good song and now it’s not overplayed. On top of that….there is no good music in the last at least ten years…probably more.
I can't believe how incredible he was! I just watched him perform live at the Blue Note cafe in Honolulu, and his voice is absolutely amazing. No autotune, just pure talent.🎉❤🎵
October 6, 1990 - 29 Years Ago Today: Maxi Priest went to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart with his single, "Close To You." It also peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard R&B Chart and was certified Gold for sales of one million copies. It was written by Gary Benson, Winston Sela and Max Elliott. (OCTOBER 6, 2019)
Yay!! I was exactly 9 months old on that date lol...bet I was jamming in my diapers to this lol....I grew up listening to this kinda music thanks to my dad. He had this radio with casettes and thats where it all began for me.
I was 7 and a half years old when this was released... One of my grandpa's favorite songs.... He is the one who got me into Reggae music.... How I miss him.... He has been gone for almost 9 years now.... Seems like yesterday....
Feel sorry for the younger generation now they missed all the good times and music in the 80s and early 90s They’ve got nothing to remember and take them back in time like for us when music like this comes along. I’m so happy I grow up in the 80s - 90s
Agree. For me it was the best decade of nice music production. Naming people... Darryl Hall & John Oates, Huey Lewis, Steve Wonder, Boston, Billy Joel, go on and add others.
When I remember the 90s I remember how great the summer times were back then while listening to these kind of music. Even the weather - back then - gives nostalgia.
@ Mr Jones HAHA thanks for droppin' Knowledge and compliments on MY channel.... Farthest I been was Indiana and Missouri, I love Cali always wanted to live out West even Utah, Oregon whatever it take to get away from where I was born... Funny illustration about Taco Bell
Max, he is a legend since my childhood, and I listen to this song, it does not die, and there are beautiful memories of that time. I was born in 1980 and I still listen to it 😍✌🏼
It brings you back to the magical time of 90's and it will stimulate all the good memories of the best times we had in our lives. Sometimes we just have to listen to the 90"s masterpieces to keep us going.
You got no idea how long I’ve been looking for this. It’s from my childhood I remember this coming on and I remember feeling the sadness in the song as a kid it’s the tone I couldn’t tell what he was talking about I think was 5 years old he was talking about still wanting to be with someone who’s hurt him i can’t even tell you how I’ve felt that geez… Fast forward 30 years and for some reason my soul was calling for this song. I couldn’t figure out the name I didn’t know a word. I had it confused with another song in my head which made it even that much harder to find. I had it confused with I just wanna keep on loving you which made an entirely different song pop up. Today I’m laying here playing a phone game and the melody to his lyrics just pop in my head. And I turn down the sound to my tv and just followed what was in my head Ditit dit dit ditdit dit Ditit dit dit ditdit dit Then hit me I just wanna be close to you!!!! Omg it was like a ton of bricks I’ve had some really tough times I needed this song years ago years ago. I finally found it. Thank You.
Everyone.....we get lost in our own worlds and time just passes by. I can't believe this song is 33 yrs young... !!! And today...this year of 2023 it still sounds great & with energy. You go Maxi Priest.
Бессмертный хит! И девушка классно танцуют! Более 30 лет пролетело, а ещё жив и вновь слушаю и смотрю этот прекрасный клип! Спасибо ИИ или кто там за этим стоит!

Omg we was truly blessed to grow up in those times, this song came out my first year of high school!!
You got stuck in the last millennium ;)
When I remember the 90s I remember how great the summer times were back then while listening to these kind of music. Even the weather - back then - gives nostalgia.
Wasn’t the world less stressful then? Lower cost of living and freedom from the distractions of technology?

This track is a masterpiece that never gets old..never fails to take me back to early 90s
I once played this song on a jukebox 12 times in a row and was promptly kicked out when it finished! Good warm funny memories....
Just listened to this thirteen times in a row 😂 the good old days when life was carefree
I love it, I remember when I was a kid (9 years old)... Those feelings.

Early 90's..... when life was really simple. Shocking but true. Back when you had to do leg work to talk to women.
True so true
True so true
Lol 😆, back then
Square Biz I like how you said "simple" but it was actually during the time when the crime rate was at its peak.....So maybe simple for you lol😂
you ain't lie ....
Llevaba años tratando de acordarme de quien cantaba este tema y por fin lo encontre😅 me encanta esta cancion muchisimas gracias ❤❤❤❤
Maxi priest made this song back in the year 1990
"I feel luuuuuuuvvvvveee".... My grief... Everytime I listen to this gorgeous tune that bit is just so sensual. His voice is beautiful x
One of my favorite songs of all time!!! 😍
I would pay for a Maxi Priest show anywhere and anytime. 🇰🇪 With love from Kenya.
