    This is a 70's classic by a great sounding band. Lead vocals, the harmonizing and the instruments combine for an experience in what music and song writing is all about. If you get a chance YOU'RE THE ONLY WOMAN and BIGGEST PART OF ME deserve a listen to. I agree on listening to the group FIREFALL.

    the BEST ambrosia song! i never tire of hearing it and the lyrics get me every time 💔 it's simply written but deeply complicated at the same time and that's part of it's beauty. the emotional vocal and gorgeous melody, structure, and arrangement make this one of my absolute favs! i will always stop to listen if and when it pops up on the radio ❤

    • @garyarnett1220
      @garyarnett1220 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Great great song. But some of their earlier prog stuff is a bit better. "Holding On To Yesterday", "Time Waits For No One" and just for fun The Jabberwock" ( produced by Alan Parsons I believe).

    • @raube396

    Yes, that last bit always throws everyone for a loop. Still beautiful song. Dauid Pack is the lead singer of Ambrosia whose voice is amazing. He has a song with Michael McDonald and the late, great James Ingram call I Just Can't Let Go. Quincy Jones called them the "other" holy trinity because of the angelic voices. Definitely worth a listen. Otherwise, Ambrosia has other great songs. Their song "You're The Only Woman" is the song I am guessing Dauid wrote to his wife after That's How Much I Feel (ha, ha). It is a great song too! Biggest Part Of Me is a good one too.

    Yes ! Ambrosia, "nectar or food of the Gods.". The David's vocals, the harmonies, the R&B influenced soft rock is definitely an eargasm. Their music was all over the radio stations in the 70s and their songs even today are popular, timeless classics.👍👍

    I think the song is about two people who are extremely passionate about one another but not good for one another so they need to part as friends but he always remembers and grieves that they couldn't work it out. That's what I think anyway. Kind of like "the one that got away"

    No it's not a make up song. This is a you broke up with me and I let you go because of how much I love and want you to be happy but DAMN I want you back and I need you to know but I'm moving on without you. There's a part in the song that he says that you realize that you're both better off as friends. You can love someone one so badly but realize that you CAN'T be together anymore and you're not going to lie about it.

    I have always loved their sound and feel of their music ever since they came out. If you listen to their top hits it sounds as though he is hung up on this woman. Its almost like these songs are a continued thought of this woman. Your the only woman, Biggest part of me, Holdin on to yesterday, and I just cant let go.. If you listen to them one right after the other in this order you get the feeling this guy is really got it bad for this woman. I love them so much. Their sound brings calm to my soul.

    The first line of the lyrics sets the stage: "I don't know how this whole business started of you thinking that I had been untrue. But if you think that we'd be better parted, it's gonna hurt me but I'll break away from you. Well, just give me the sign and I will be gone. That's how much I feel for your baby..."

    Great reaction but I do wish you'd reacted to the live version from the Midnight Special in 1978. It's INCREDIBLE! All the guys were so "70s cute" & they were as great live as they were in the studio! One of my MANY favorite groups of that time! Young people don't know what they missed so I'm glad reactors are introducing them to real music & real talent instead of technically produced junk! 😊

    7th grade school dance. Slow dancing with my gf Barbara. At 58, I'm surprised I remembered that. Amazing what memories can be tied to a song. And a cute, blue eyed, red head(1 of only 2, that I ever dated, lol) helps.

David Pack on Guitar / Lead Vocals, Burleigh Drummond / Drums / Vocals, Christopher North / Keyboards, Joe Puerta / Bass Guitar & Vocals, David Cutler Lewis / Rhodes, Piano,& Moog Synth, Royce jones / Vocals & Percussion. Ambrosia was initially a Progressive Rock Band that weren't afraid to Experiment in Search of their own Sound. Great Vocal Harmonys. You have to Love those Major7th Chords. I agree with Al, "You're the only Woman & The Biggest part of Me," deserve a listen. Thanks Asia and BJ.

  • @kevincaulder20
    @kevincaulder20 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    This song is much the Jermaine Jackson song DO WHAT YOU DO that you reviewed. Leaving behind someone you love is often harder than it sounds. And working through those memories and feelings can be devastating to those who truly give themselves over to someone. Sadness is the art that of expression that leaves its mark on people who truly feel and have a harder time letting go. Because the letting go takes a part of you with it. And leaves you alone. We write about, talk about it, drink and drug about it, scream and shout about it, but until you comes to terms about it, miserable is what you will be. But it often makes for the best poetry, love songs, dramatic stories, art and triumph when something can be salvaged from the ashes. But that takes time, growth and finally letting go to leave behind feelings that no longer serve you.
    Ambrosia scores these points with, YOU'RE THE ONLY WOMAN,
    BIGGEST PART OF ME,
    and a great live version of HOLDING ON TO YESTERDAY.
    You might also give Randy Van Warmer sing his heart out on JUST WHEN I NEEDED YOU MOST.
    Or Michael Johnson nursing his broken heart on BLUER THAN BLUE. Enjoy.

    My impression of this song has always been that she thought he had cheated on her, and he's making his feelings known that he feels and senses what's impending. The lyrics "take hold of my hand, and all will be forgiven" to me is him saying that it's alright that she thought that, and if she chooses (take hold of my hand) they can move forward. I also think he knows that it's futile. So, he tells her that he loves her that much that he'll let go if that's what she wants. The last verse where he says (he's musing I think) "Sometimes when we make love, I can still see your face. Just trying to recall when we were as one" says to me that while he has moved on and is happy, he still grieves what once was. Just my 2 cents. As a side note. I was around when that song came out. 19 years old, actually. That'll give you some perspective of hol old I AM! Lol! I love what you guys do and how you do it! ❤

    He's not trying to break his way off.
    The song is is like the old saying,,,, "if you love me then you will set me free".
    He is saying that his love is so strong that he is willing to set her free.

    I remember this song as a teenager.
    Lots of songs can you make you feel a certain way going forward as a teenager.
    I think they could do these beautiful songs again…but I am not optimistic.
    It depends on the current generation of listeners.
    However, we have the past.
    Blessings.

    I grew up, listening to ambrosia back in the day. We had a genre of music called yacht rock. And being from Miami yacht rock was a big deal not to say we were all hanging out on the yacht because trust me we were not! Anyway, ambrosia was a big deal back in the day and I love this band

    This is one of Ambrosia's biggest hits. The song is about still being hung up on a woman long after they broke up. Near the end of the song, the singer mentions that he's married and "we're still going strong," but "sometimes when we make love, I can still see your face." This marriage doesn't sound like a healthy one.

      I always felt that he was saying he's moved on, fell in love, made a new life with his wife. But the love that he felt for the other lady never really died, so that sometimes she still invades his thoughts.

    The way I interpret the lyrics is that she thinks he's been untrue, and so she wants to break up. He says it's not true; he loves her, and he doesn't want to split up. But if she insists, he will go without a lot of drama, because he loves her and doesn't want to cause her uneccesay pain by drawing out the breakup process. Then, years later, he confesses that he still thinks about her even though he is happily married.

    It's not a makeup song. She thinks he's cheating and doesn't want him because of it. He doesn't know where she got that idea because he wasn't. He never really got over her, but he had to move on, no choice, and he marries someone else down the road who loves him, and trusts him. But he still thinks of her. She scwewed up. He really loved her back then.

    Here's my two cents: It's the first two lines of the song,"I don't know how this whole business started, of you thinking that I have been untrue" that explains the meaning of the song. So the question is: Did he or did he not cheat on her? Throughout the song he never explicitly admits that he cheated; but there's hints in the lyrics that he did. For example, "all will be forgiven", "try to make amends", "I still can see your face". In the first verse he thinks and acts like it'll be easy to just cavalierly "break away from you"; but by the last verse he admits he hasn't forgotten and moved on. And he's still cheating (again) with his wife in his current relationship, thinking about that ex from long ago. So yeah, he's still messed up with how he can't admit he has problems being faithful and committed.
