He's not 77. He's 34. This song never ages. He'll never age, this song brings me back to high school with my sweetheart that became my wife listening to this. He wrote the most beautiful song ever created and stopped time.
His best rendition in my opinion. His sound is lower, with more life lived, and that fabulous hall sound. I was a late teen when this song came out, so I experienced the whole era that lasted a few years in mainstream clubs. Boz Scaggs was a sensation.
I cry when I hear this man sing, Grew up listening to that beautiful voice and I am astonished of the passage of time,Went to see him perform and he is 77, may I please have those wonderful youthful days back.Don’t want the music that I love to end.
My wife always thought that the orgional version was by Rita Coulage until i introduced to the origional version by Boz. Ufortunatly now she is no longer with me and i cant get passed the first 2 lines of the song. It is still one of my favourite songs of all time and maybe one day i will be able to listen to it completley.... I love you Jane xxx
Hard to put into words what this song does for the soul. The feeling it leaves you with. The magic in this man’s voice. What a wonderful gift to the world. One of the few songs that makes me feel warm and safe yet want cry at the same time! Beautiful!
I have never enjoyed listening to a bass player as much as I have listening to the bass player in this song, he has the smoothest richest bass tone that I've ever heard of any bass player play in my entire life I would really like to know what he's playing through and that's saying a lot because I have spent hours upon hours upon hours in my life listening to music from a young person and I'm 71 years old.
If this song doesn't pull at your heart stings...check your pulse. You may be dead. Boz....you are the man. Love you. Thank you for all the years of your soulful voice that got me through.
I fell in love with this song the first time I heard it back in 1976. Today, nearly 45 years later, it has a depth and sensitivity that only time can bring. Just a beautiful song and sung by the one guy who can bring all that out. Well done, Slim.
Bought Silk Degrees when I was 15 and have played the same vinyl copy every week since. God did a great job giving the human race a voice. Perfection..sheer perfection.
I think how lucky I am at 65 to have grown up listening to some great, great music. Today’s music pales in comparison, especially rap crap. Boz will always be a fav.❤️
How right you are Patricia. Music today (two years after YOUR post,) hasn't just become "pale," it is now transparent. There is nothing to see...or hear.
The music was so much better back in the 60's and 70's! Rap and hip-hop are hideous and a terrible influence on kids and teens because they glorify gangs, criminality, and the abuse of women. If enough people, especially younger demographics, demand music of similar styles and quality, music companies will get the message and sell new songs of this type of music again.
Without fail, every time I hear this I darn near cry .... and I'm not thinking of another person, it doesn't remind me of anyone. It is simply because it is a beautiful song and a sign of human greatness that someone actually wrote this.
This is so refreshing and so good to read--someone who likes music without making it about himself, but for the sake of the music itself. This is someone who genuinely likes music. I wish that there were more of you!
I absolutely love this song. Listening to Boz Scaggs brings back so many memories. Thank you Boz. It was so fantastic to see you live a few years ago (at the Maryhill Winery in Goldendale, WA), and you sounded just as good as you did in the 1970's.
Saw Boz last night, live in Fort Lauderdale. It's insane...he's still on top of his game. Tight band, great compositions, mix of R & B, blues, rock, jazzy soul...plus Boz and his terrific vocal skills. Fabulous artist!! And, he's 77 years old. Big WOW!!
So jealous. My world is falling apart with all this pandemic madness. I thought I'd revisit the 70s. Sitting here crying about what used to be...what I took for granted. Hope it isn't gone forever. Glad life in Florida is still enjoying this unrestricted.
Heard the Rita Cooledge version the other day. It felt meaniingless Boz fills each note with his heart, in my opinion there is no other singer that hits the feels like he can.
For those who came of age with this song, I think we all have a special summer memory that lives with this incredible tune. .... smiles and thinks of you.
You were born in the right generation okay. Now you have youtube or spotify to access limitless kind of music for free and easy. but back in 70s? there weren't any of that
One of the most beautiful and unique voices in the music universe. This man carries so much emotion in his voice that, at times, it can be overwhelming. It makes me sad that there are almost no new singers/musicians, or songs, like this anymore. The world is a lesser place...
A very under recognized great singer. Many unique sounding voices back then. Now, they literally all sound the same, like buying generic instead of brand name.
Royce (Boz) and I grew up in and went to school in the same city, Dallas, back in the early 60's (although in neighboring schools). He has one of the greatest voices I've ever had the privilege to listen to, regardless of song, genre, whatever. We didn't know each other, he was a couple years older; yet I've followed his career all these many years. A true American treasure, he never over commercialized. With him it was always about the music, the poetry, the final product....the art. You know, that indefinable thing that touches our very souls.
Never gave Boz much attention, listening to Zep, Rundgren, Doobies, Fleetwood and the like through the 70's/80's, but man, as an old guy now....I'm appreciating his stuff Big Time. Man could lay down a groove with the best of them, turn around and croon like this? Hall of Famer in my book.
A very Happy 77th Birthday William Royce "Boz" Scaggs June 8, 1944. Your songs were inspirational for us when we were young. And now, more than ever. Being that we're older and wiser. Thanks William.
Hi , I am from Manila The Philippines….”We’re All Alone” was a favorite song when we were in our Junior Year in High School that we adopted it as our Class Song (Class of 1978)
His album Silk degrees is the best out there. Even now he would hold up against all others. I went through 3 records of it and 4cassettes and 2cd's...I wore them out. THAT is how good it is.
@Boz Scaggs ♪ you really sound like you ARE him. Very smart. I just don't know how to add whatsapp, and this is the best day of my life to be contacted by you. I have played Harbor Lights a million times...
Saw Boz Scaggs at Festival Hall in Brisbane back in '79/ '80. So professional. Sounded just like playing his albums with zero deviation but higher quality. Genius!
Thanks for this wonderful song Mr. Scaggs. We're all Alone was the first ballad I got the chance to dance, with my first High School girlfriend. I still have chills, just to remember that moment. 38 years later, I still wonder where this beautiful girl is, now ?...
I graduated in 1978 from Benjamin Franklin , in Los Angeles , these was our class song , great memories , when music was music , thanks for the memories
Beautiful version of a beautiful song. I had the studio version playing when I proposed to my girlfriend and it will be our first dance at our wedding next year ❤
This song has a huge, wonderful memory for me. A girl I had a huge crush on since my freshman year in high school - an "untouchable" that I thought I'd never, ever have a chance with.....she was so beautiful. I loved her from afar for 4 years. Never even asked her out. We got together after graduation in 76. Well, the first time I kissed her was during this song when she came to see me. The entire album. I thought had gone straight to heaven. We're still very good friends. At our 20 yr High School reunion, I wrote that I wanted to see and dance with her, which I did. So, this will always be beautiful Sarah's song to me. The whole Silk Degrees album. It just warms my heart when I think of that time. Thanks Boz.
I was so fortunate to see him live in 2020 here in Minnesota. What a show, what a voice and a great song writer! Love it .... been listening to him since the 70's

Hello Katherine,
How're you doing?
Thanks for all your love and support, also for being an amazing fan.
It's nice meeting you here
this was in fact my wedding music during in our reception..
He’s 78
Yours and mine both - This great music will never end!!!!Proof positive to have a reply to your message by Boz himself - what an honour!!!!!
@@jeffreyhetrick76
I can't see his reply anywhere
Such a beautiful voice from my youth of the 70’s. Love this song. Thank you, Boz!
I love that he bowed for the applause in the middle of the song. What a humble and talented man
He is humble and a true genius.
My wife always thought that the orgional version was by Rita Coulage until i introduced to the origional version by Boz. Ufortunatly now she is no longer with me and i cant get passed the first 2 lines of the song. It is still one of my favourite songs of all time and maybe one day i will be able to listen to it completley.... I love you Jane xxx
So sorry... 😪
Cherish the music and memories- one day in another life may you sing the song together again
It’s truly the most beautiful gift~ Mutual love. I’ve not had that blessing.
My friends paid for my entry when I had never heard of him.when I left the concert I was obsessed with this amazing man
Hard to put into words what this song does for the soul. The feeling it leaves you with. The magic in this man’s voice. What a wonderful gift to the world. One of the few songs that makes me feel warm and safe yet want cry at the same time! Beautiful!
Boz: not a bad note, not a bad song, ever. One of the true greats.😍
Just amazing singing, deliverance, writing, orchestration, performing...Beautiful ! A true great.
Fine wine, baby. This is how a voice should age.
I have never enjoyed listening to a bass player as much as I have listening to the bass player in this song, he has the smoothest richest bass tone that I've ever heard of any bass player play in my entire life I would really like to know what he's playing through and that's saying a lot because I have spent hours upon hours upon hours in my life listening to music from a young person and I'm 71 years old.

Im 74, this takes me right back in time 😢
He even SOUNDS like Boz!! Great stuff!! 👍👍❤️
My comment is to a cover group trying to BE Box!! 😂👍❤️❤️

SOMEBODY I RESPECT SENT ME THIS ON FACEBOOK I HAVE SAVED IT, BUT STILL COME ON HERETO COMMENT ON IT x
forgot cap's lock was on x
Such an incredible song sang by a long lasting talented artist. I love this song and the meaning behind it.
I so agree! ...... the same aging soul missing ..... this deep, mellow, soulish music! ...... 💓💗💞
Bought Silk Degrees when I was 15 and have played the same vinyl copy every week since. God did a great job giving the human race a voice. Perfection..sheer perfection.
One of the most beautiful songs in the industry. Thank you for this heartfelt song. Still listening 2023 💜💜💜💜
High school moments ❤️
I’m almost 60 years old. I’ve loved Boz Skaggs since I was 13 yeas old. ❤️❤️❤️
I am 69 and only found boz a couple of years ago. Damn that man can sing he has become a firm favourite
I absolutely love this song. It takes me to the epitome of calmness. Love you so much Boz!!!!
This was the song for our first dance at our wedding. I saw Boz in Kansas City in 1978. He was fantastic...so long ago!
I think how lucky I am at 65 to have grown up listening to some great, great music. Today’s music pales in comparison, especially rap crap. Boz will always be a fav.❤️
He is one of the greatest, reminds me of the big band leaders of days gone bye !
@@jkg2754 he melts my heart annd i am 71 but listening to him makes me yearn to be young again

Me too, and in 2021 I will be 68! These folks made great music!
Without fail, every time I hear this I darn near cry .... and I'm not thinking of another person, it doesn't remind me of anyone. It is simply because it is a beautiful song and a sign of human greatness that someone actually wrote this.
This is beautiful and exactly how I feel. It’s a reminder that life isn’t all bad.
This is so refreshing and so good to read--someone who likes music without making it about himself, but for the sake of the music itself. This is someone who genuinely likes music. I wish that there were more of you!
Know how you feel, bud
Rita Coolidge had the hit with it but I think Boz sings it better
Ppppppl pl lll
Very talented! That is the kind of evening I would Love with Boz.
The way he stands and the sound when he sings. Effortless release of exceptional talent . Just beautiful ❤️
One of the most beautiful songs ever written.
Agree totally.
I agree 100%, I absolutely love this song.
I can claim that I wrote it, its THAT old 😅
100% agree 😃
I absolutely love this song. Listening to Boz Scaggs brings back so many memories. Thank you Boz. It was so fantastic to see you live a few years ago (at the Maryhill Winery in Goldendale, WA), and you sounded just as good as you did in the 1970's.

I'll have to look for him... Did he have backup singers remotely comparable to the two here?
Where did he play? I am former Ft. Lauderdale resident. Thank you.
He is a true artist. As far as I am concerned, he is the best of the best.
@@thebordernow He always has strong vocalists as accompaniments but the women in this video were excellent and better than most.
Heard the Rita Cooledge version the other day. It felt meaniingless Boz fills each note with his heart, in my opinion there is no other singer that hits the feels like he can.
Agreed❤
I agree. I couldn’t understand how anyone could like her version if they’d heard his Silk Degrees album first.
This song is well too under appreciated.
For those who came of age with this song, I think we all have a special summer memory that lives with this incredible tune. .... smiles and thinks of you.
Dating my hubby.
I'm 23 years and i love old songs. I think was born in a wrong generation.
omg... old songs are the best
@@MyZillionaire Yaap .... Yesss ... !!! @
You were born in the right generation okay. Now you have youtube or spotify to access limitless kind of music for free and easy. but back in 70s? there weren't any of that
I tell my 24 year old son this all the time
I listen the gritty rock bottom of rap. And the p-funk. But when it comes to Boz. I'm in a better mood. What a musician!
I love this song and it really helped my marriage get back on track. He has always been one of my favorites.❤
Hello Dorothy,
How're you doing?
Thanks for all your love and support, also for being an amazing fan.
It's nice meeting you here
Yep,,tears,,and the older BOZ gets the better,, I totally love him,,his music,, everything,,
Effortlessly beautiful❤️
Happy Valentine Day Irene. 57 years together & ' hold me Dear' . I love you.
how did boz actually come up with this song. gosh. even in 2023/2024 ppl are still covering his composition
How many times do I have to listen to this before it doesn't touch me anymore? Don't bother to give an answer, it just ain't gonna happen.
Yvonne. I love this song, and have for 37 years.👍
Because it touches your soul
Agree. Cg
Maybe the same times I've sang along in my car? This man's voice is like warm butter on a toasted English muffin!
you are not alone.
Scaggs voice kept almost perfect although years passed by. Great musician
Paradise for the senses!!!!!Euphoria for the soul!!!!Boz has a special uniqueness that he owns and conveys flawlessly!!!!
One of the most beautiful and unique voices in the music universe. This man carries so much emotion in his voice that, at times, it can be overwhelming. It makes me sad that there are almost no new singers/musicians, or songs, like this anymore. The world is a lesser place...
Agree, and a few years ago I discovered the Rag n Bone Man, maybe not the class of Boz, but still amazing talent
A very under recognized great singer. Many unique sounding voices back then. Now, they literally all sound the same, like buying generic instead of brand name.

Listen to some of his early stuff - he played with Gregg Allman and if you listen to "Loan me a Dime" or TNT you will be shocked at the rock/blues.
One of the best albums of 1977
Totally agree...great voice and some damn fine memories. Well said
Man, I Couldn’t Have Said It Better Myself! I’m With You There Bruce,Bruce! Kudos!...
Boz was and still is the epitome of "cool"
He is INCREDIBLE!!
Not one dislike on this one !!!! :)
So beautiful. I think this guy has never been properly appreciated. This is some good stuff.
Why Did I Burst Into Tears When This Dong Started? Love ❤️ Love ❤️ Love This Song!!
It's something I've always admired 💗

ITS A SCAMMER!!!

Early 1980s..
Close and Slow..
I love his voice. I used to play the Silk Degrees album to death.
Same here. The whole album was amazing.
This song is a masterpiece of words, music and voice. Get lost in the melody, find your way out, and get lost again. Thank you, Boz.
I could listen to this man’s voice every day till I die and never get tired of it.
i do just that, magnificent melodic, romantic, pure ''BLISS''
Me too!
agreed
Me too.
What a beautiful song
This guy is a legend. Outstanding!
you can say that again
@matthew McKenzie well said sir! Well said
I got Silk Degrees for a birthday gift from my sister. Just another reason to adore my older sister. I love you Teresa!
One of the great artists of this generation.

One of the Legends great voice!!
Does he get better as time goes. Chills listening to him sing to me! Thank you Boz Scaggs
@Boz Scaggs ♪
*** SCAMMER ***
The chorus always gets me everytime ❤
For me, this mature and tender voicing is better than his original.
not only for you, but also for me
True, mate.
Agreed. He sounded like Kermit the Frog on the original recording
I love both.
@@Josherrificly I never realized that Kermit was one of the greatest singers of all time. Thank you for pointing that out...

Thanks for this wonderful song Mr. Scaggs. We're all Alone was the first ballad I got the chance to dance, with my first High School girlfriend. I still have chills, just to remember that moment. 38 years later, I still wonder where this beautiful girl is, now ?...
I'm a sucker for ballads. I'm an emotional kind of guy for sure. Thank you for this song Boz.

This melody must be made in heaven.
Remind me of my husband .Was his favorite singer.❤❤❤❤😊
Love Bozz Scaggs music...still play my "Silk Degrees Album" up loud...classy man..classy music ❤
This is a deeper song than I remember. Love Boz, he's something special.
This song has a huge, wonderful memory for me. A girl I had a huge crush on since my freshman year in high school - an "untouchable" that I thought I'd never, ever have a chance with.....she was so beautiful. I loved her from afar for 4 years. Never even asked her out. We got together after graduation in 76. Well, the first time I kissed her was during this song when she came to see me. The entire album. I thought had gone straight to heaven. We're still very good friends. At our 20 yr High School reunion, I wrote that I wanted to see and dance with her, which I did. So, this will always be beautiful Sarah's song to me. The whole Silk Degrees album. It just warms my heart when I think of that time. Thanks Boz.
one can picture God sitting on his cloud thinking what a great idea it was to give the human race a voice.
And possibly being just a LITTLE jealous.
Never heard his version. Very nice.
Love how he under plays it/stays within his voice.....it's the small stuff...
I’d sincerely like to thank you Boz Scaggs
Oh man. I never knew he wrote this. Jesus
I was so fortunate to see him live in 2020 here in Minnesota. What a show, what a voice and a great song writer! Love it .... been listening to him since the 70's
Brings me back to 1976 and very fond memories of the best times of my life. Thank you Boz.
He sounds even better years later and a live performance. That is talent. 😍
I love this song. One of the few artists who i can put a cd on repeat for hours! Thank ypu Boz!
Reminds me many 60’s nights when the dance was just this slow and easy. Lyrics made for this musical score!❤
My high school fav song from my fav singer Boz Scaggs,.
.never grows old...amazing voice..
This is one of the most beautiful love songs ever written! I play it almost every day.
Maybe the most stirring song I've ever encountered , and I have heard them all....
Listened to this song hundred of times when I was alone in the '70s thinking maybe we can be together soon.....
IMPECCABLE 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽🌹🌹🌹💥💥💥💕💕💕💯💯💯‼️‼️‼️🦋
