Masterpiece that we all took for granted! In 1987 the year these guys packed it in and on my 18th birthday an old girlfriend walked back into my life and we have been married 33 years 3 kids and 2 grandchildren and this particular song reminds me of the time and i will forever link the song and its meaning with the memories of the time and the message it still delivers from that moment in our lives and everything we have been through since! The Power of Love! Thank you Frankie the 5 lads from Liverpool!
I would like to personally thank the man for writing and performing not just a Christmas classic, but an all year round song reminding us of God's love.
God is Love not by words on paper no in real works, he shows the incredible price he himself has to pay seeing his sona severe pain and suffering, and that for saving us insignificant humans, Abraham has to endure the pain God has to endure, but in Gods mercy Abraham dident have to go all the way, but God had to. Who if us would do the same
Stunning vocal, what a presence? Easily as good as the original, I prefer it and I thought the studio version was perfect, Wow! Thank you Holly, outrageous!
It’s quite difficult to describe just how big this band was in the 80’s. They had a similar effect to Adam and the ants. Blazed a trail like a comet through the sky. Their album was sold out everywhere on release, copies came in and vanished the same day. Truly brilliant for the time and still endures.
The most passionately perfect LOVE SONG ever written! ONLY HOLLY AKA FRANKIE could ever do this eloquently elegant song justice the way that he sings it!! 😍 Thank you for sharing this rare 💎 gem!$
Just looked at the latest comments on this posts. As a teenager in the 80s and loving 1970s music, this track stood out, at Christmas, as one of the best tracks ever. And I am a musician. Amateur but I play by ear. This song is just beautiful.
I cry everytime like a baby, when I listen to this song. I love my girfriend since one year more than anything and even when this song is played on the radio at work I have to fight against the tears, because she's the love of my life and I feel every word in this song only for her...
TheAustinTessaDutchie beat it, queen. This man did nothing wrong by expressing his feelings - if yall did the same maybe there wouldnt be as much "offended" and "triggered" people like yourself in the world. And seriously - whats up with the 1950s stereotypes?
This is lyrics, vocals, and musicians at their best!! Holly Johnson you really are a musical treasure!!! You brought your sexuality into the 80’s which was a hard time!! I’m a straight lady in her 50’s but good on you!! I was there to support gays coming out! Still do, about time the world did!!!
Holly Johnson is one of the best singers from the 80's, still sounds great! love the bit where he sings "when the chips are down, I'll be around". Alot of todays pop singers cant touch him
Ive loved this song since it was first released, i sing it to my 14 month old son, he loves it too. :D Holly is one of them true talents we will never forget, thanks for this song holly.
I'll protect you from the hooded claw Keep the vampires from your door Ay, ay, ay, ay Feels like fire I'm so in love with you Dreams are like angels They keep bad at bay, bad at bay Love is the light Scaring darkness away, yeah I'm so in love with you Purge the soul Make love your goal The power of love A force from above Cleaning my soul Flame on, burn desire Love with tongues of fire Purge the soul Make love your goal I'll protect you from the hooded claw Keep the vampires from your door When the chips are down I'll be around With my undying, death-defying love for you Envy will hurt itself Let yourself be beautiful Sparkling love, flowers And pearls and pretty girls Love is like an energy Rushin' an' rushin' inside of me, eh The power of love A force from above Cleaning my soul Flame on, burn desire Love with tongues of fire Purge the soul Make love your goal This time we go sublime Lovers entwine, divine, divine Love is danger, love is pleasure Love is pure, the only treasure I'm so in love with you Purge the soul Make love your goal The power of love A force from above Cleaning my soul The power of love A force from above A sky-scraping dove Flame on burn desire Love with tongues of fire Purge the soul Make love your goal I'll protect you from the hooded claw Keep the vampires from your door ❤️💖❣️
Fools, for those who comment against Jools his piano is spot on, tone deaf all you knockers! It pains me to respond, you wouldn't know a rift if it hit you between the eyes!
To All Liverpudlians who remember that cold, Snowy, Wintry December in 1984 I do Like it was yesterday, Making that long trek back home from Flintlocks Night Club in Wood Street, Liverpool City Centre, To Breck Road, Everton ;) In the days when most of us could not afford taxis home................... But all Liverpool Girls were proper fit (unless you were sober) Yes, I'm being sarcastic 🤫🤫🤫🤫
@@Zeebo-ig6ui I Was being sarcastic Buddy Of course, they are , married one myself have two Grown up Daughters, both are smashing it , in their chosen careers 👍👍

Sublime
I’m 52yrs old and I’m crying like a baby. I’ve loved this song and Hollys voice ever since I first heard it!
Great voice
I totally agree with you Gaz
Simply a gift i continue to enjoy. Astounding!!!
Just like me...😭😭😭
Same over here. I am 49 by the way.
9 Dislikes know nothing about music. Thats one of the greatest.
I can only think they are all wearing a stained nightgown muttering "barrr.. hum bug" as they sit huddled against a flickering candle .....
Focusing on 9 dislikes of c1300 ratings is poor.
this song is one of the most beautiful songs EVER... touches my heart every time
fantastic
One of the most defining voices of the 80s.
Amazing...music hasn't got better than this
A stunning delivery, just beautiful, top performance! class,
Holly Johnson is so talented
keep the vampires from your door ..lol ..
Seriously , one of the best lyrics i've ever read ..
what a fucking amazing perfomance ...
Masterpiece that we all took for granted!

We took everything for granted in 1987 😊
Just the most gorgeous song and what a beautiful performance. Holly’s voice just washes over me. This song means so much to me and always has ❤
Beautiful song, I've got chills everytime I hear it❤️
Superb performance all round... What a voice Holly has...
Beautiful, gorgeous, everything
Jules throwing in some jazz feels. Extraordinary
Potentially, simply the greatest pop ballad ever written.
Still as good today as ever. Beautiful classic .🤎😎
I would like to personally thank the man for writing and performing not just a Christmas classic, but an all year round song reminding us of God's love.
I agree, beautiful Truth never ages.. thanks
God is Love not by words on paper no in real works, he shows the incredible price he himself has to pay seeing his sona severe pain and suffering, and that for saving us insignificant humans, Abraham has to endure the pain God has to endure, but in Gods mercy Abraham dident have to go all the way, but God had to.
Who if us would do the same
No one. I understand the tremendous God we serve now. But I do think it's a good song, if inaccurate.@@thetruthnothingelse5033
One of their most underrated songs.
This is by far , the most beautiful lovesong which ever was written and performed.
Thank you Billy 🙏🏻♥️
Billy ?
Maybe the best song of 80s
Amazing.. the best song ever to see the light of day ...and Holly can still rock it !!
This is my absolute favorite song..forever.❤️
miss the 80s...
Outstanding. Holy has a gift, hes never lost it
I am just so relieved Holly can still sing! He sounds really good
Same sounds like in 80’s
Holly's still got it. Such a powerful and unique voice. Easy on the jazz noodling though, Jools..
One of the best songs ever written
Stunning vocal, what a presence? Easily as good as the original, I prefer it and I thought the studio version was perfect, Wow! Thank you Holly, outrageous!
Even in 2021, this is one of the GREATEST versions of The Power of Love I will ever hear.
I love this song, when it first came out, I had my arms wrapped around this lass named Tanya, 20 years later they are still there, love u Tan,x
Fair enough mate 👍🏻
20 years? The song came out in 1984, 34 years ago.
oh god..all the feels
Thats awesome. I wrapped my arms around a Tania to this song...unfortunatly, not right now
Have you let go yet?

Perfectly put, thanks!
Frankie WAS my teenage years. Beautiful music
The most passionately perfect LOVE SONG
ever written! ONLY
HOLLY AKA FRANKIE could ever do this eloquently elegant song justice the way that he sings it!! 😍 Thank you for sharing this rare 💎 gem!$

This was my wedding dance in 95.
This song always takes me on a journey in my imagination every time I hear it. What a talent he is Bravo!
80s had the best music. Best bands, best singers, best song writers
Best song ever.
I cry everytime like a baby, when I listen to this song. I love my girfriend since one year more than anything and even when this song is played on the radio at work I have to fight against the tears, because she's the love of my life and I feel every word in this song only for her...

Well said, I wonder if you are still with her
Beautiful song. I love his sound, unique and so much emotions.

Truly amazing perfect divine song sung by the only singer to it justice . So not a Christmas song and so so much more .
Great voice

I have loved FGTH since they first came out. This is one of the best romance songs ever. Love his voice and words
Holly's voice is just velvet...
Fantastic
It's a bit of a shame this gets sort of lumped in as a Xmas song as I think it's genuinely one of the greatest songs of all time
Très très très sentimental music inoubliable les années 80 top top
One of the all time greats!!!
RIP Guy it’s been a lot of years worked with you when this was a hit it reminds me of good times

I'll protect you from the hooded claw
Keep the vampires from your door
Ay, ay, ay, ay
Feels like fire
I'm so in love with you
Dreams are like angels
They keep bad at bay, bad at bay
Love is the light
Scaring darkness away, yeah
I'm so in love with you
Purge the soul
Make love your goal
The power of love
A force from above
Cleaning my soul
Flame on, burn desire
Love with tongues of fire
Purge the soul
Make love your goal
I'll protect you from the hooded claw
Keep the vampires from your door
When the chips are down I'll be around
With my undying, death-defying love for you
Envy will hurt itself
Let yourself be beautiful
Sparkling love, flowers
And pearls and pretty girls
Love is like an energy
Rushin' an' rushin' inside of me, eh
The power of love
A force from above
Cleaning my soul
Flame on, burn desire
Love with tongues of fire
Purge the soul
Make love your goal
This time we go sublime
Lovers entwine, divine, divine
Love is danger, love is pleasure
Love is pure, the only treasure
I'm so in love with you
Purge the soul
Make love your goal
The power of love
A force from above
Cleaning my soul
The power of love
A force from above
A sky-scraping dove
Flame on burn desire
Love with tongues of fire
Purge the soul
Make love your goal
I'll protect you from the hooded claw
Keep the vampires from your door
❤️💖❣️
1 of the best songs made , ever
Dokonalá pieseň a to mu závidim. Možno sa raz podarí Mne . Vám.
Fools, for those who comment against Jools his piano is spot on, tone deaf all you knockers! It pains me to respond, you wouldn't know a rift if it hit you between the eyes!
Such a beautiful song from the guy that sings relax, who would have ever thought. Il divo sings this live the Colosseum in Rome and it is as beautiful
This is wonderful ❤️
Stunningly emotional...... AMAZING
Superb ...🎤🎻💥💙
