After hearing this wonderful song I was on the phone with my brother highly recommending that he hear this. We were both Asia fans growing up and both truly loved this song. RIP Mr. Wetton. No one did it better!
Beautiful song sung by a beautiful complex passionate man. RIP John. Sam Coulson is amazing in the solo! What an honor to have been part of this terrific band with John, Geoff, and Carl.
His voice was like a fine wine, it got better and more mature with time. I saw them in 2007 & 2012, both concert in second row! This video doesn’t do justice at how powerful his voice was in concert. By the way, he sang all of the songs in their original key, and he even went higher on some of the songs to emphasize that particular part. Amazing!
One of the finest performances EVER of this incredible, timeless song, by the greatest voice ever to grace this planet, Mr. John Wetton. You are deeply missed here. God rest your beautiful soul John. R.I.P.
Oh this song makes me cry and get goosebumps EVERY TIME I hear it! The song itself is a masterpiece. Whether it's John W., John P., or Lake singing it, it affects me just the same. Why? Because the song is pure genius! And that there is what makes John Kenneth Wetton, the writer of this piece, so special. He nailed it with this one, in my opinion. I aspire to write like this. He was truly a gift to my music world.
I remember the first time I heard his voice ( the first Asia album) takes me back all those years , his vocal range was astonishing and from there first album I followed them intensely, his voice could be so haunting, this country infact the world will never see talent like his again, he was truly amazing, you left far to soon rest in peace John 😢
We used to do this in my old band.. I know this is song is extremely difficult to sing. It takes A LOT of lung power and here he is not only singing it but also playing with the melody in ways that improves over the original but makes it that much harder. John Wetton proved himself as one of the greats of all time.
RIP Mr. John - you are missed dearly by your family, your friends and the millions of music lovers across this small planet. Thank you very much for EVERYTHING you did and shared with us......................
I had no clue that John Wetton could be that! strong live! His performance here is outstanding. Marvelous and lyrically impressive! written. Brings me to my tears.
Just stumbled across this video and didnt realise that John Wetton had passed away. I grew up listening to Asia great music that will never die RIP JW x
Hands down the most beautiful love song ever written or sung. So glad I saw them live, I cried when they played it then, and every time I watch this. RIP JW, thank you for your talent and grace on earth.
