Elkie Brooks used to be in a band called Vinegar Joe,she shared lead vocals with Robert Palmer.

Elkie Brooks has a rich,smoky, low alto voice which is ideal for easy listening pop music.

Wow, a teenager (then) with taste. Good man yourself, as my Irish mother would have said.

you should hear it when its just her singing this songs its hauntingly beutyfull

Raspy❤🎉

Love this song and how it’s performed is just amazing

Just one word beautiful

Between 1981 and 2002, she lived with her family in a mansion in a secluded area of North Devon. However, in 1998, after her accountant informed her that he had not been paying her taxes, Brooks found herself in severe debt and was reduced to living in a mobile home. After four years of increasing interest bills and loans, Brooks managed to sell her home (after being threatened with repossession) and cleared all of her debts. In 2000, Brooks' management and tour promotion was taken over by her son, Jermaine, and his wife, Joanna

I have just discovered Elkie Brooks today and she is awesome ❤️❤️👍👍🤸🤸

Co written and produced by Leiber and Stoller, they of Hound Dog and Jailhouse Rock fame. Great story tellers! And what a belter of a singer too, saw Elkie three times.

Wow!!! What a lady, what a singer.

*Too blind yo see my world falling* Muito cego pra ver meu mundo despedaçando. Essa frase me define hj.

What a voice wow ❤

Elkie Brooks , Robert Palmer , Vinegar Joe check it out

Still a classic song 💕

What a fantastic voice and meaningful song, love it, gonna search for more now.

Lekkere schorre stem en moliedieusvtegelijk heel te gek en prachtige vrouw

There’s just something about this song. It clings on to hope with the fingernails. She absolutely nails it!!!

I saw her in concert in Cardiff about 4 weeks ago. what a trooper. Her voice is still there. No compromises. She pinned the audience in their seats with its power. Catch her if you can. She is still on tour. The Long Goodbye Tour. The best gig I have been to in the past 5 years or more.

In the same class as the ballad of Lucy Jordan.So evocative and stirring 😢

Que música gostosa de ouvir!

Technically - I think this may be one of the greatest songs ever written/performed. Genius.

What a band 🎼🤘seen them (Glasgow Apollo few gigs legends 👏👏)🎸

I'm surprised she's a white singer. When I listened to this song on the radio always thought only an african american woman could sing in such a wonderful tone. Still a great song though:)

🙏💝

Beautiful song

Great song and Elkie is perfect to sing it

Lieber and stoller strike again

No backing dancers prancing about. Just 100% talent what a voice.

Ellkie Brookes was seriously under-rated never achieving global recognition ...

Love to know the meaning of this song how it wS intended. Over the years I've interpreted many meanings. Whats began? ... heartheart, sorrow, a crap life with a narcissist? Well good luck girls and guys there's a lot of liars in the world. Wolves dressed in sheeps clothing.

I saw Elkie Brooks at a night club in Ilford, she was singing with her band Vinegar joe some 60years ago

Bark Sparrow is the perilous singer of Jack's parlor.

Mines no more the fool .... but this is so second Loved her forever ❤

It just came into my head. I haven't heard it for years, and I realised how good it is in a musical sense. It's a clever arrangement.

Wow powerful voice.

Superb. Wow. Everything about this song is first class.

What English girl has the blues invher soul like elkie ?im struggling to think of anyone else who can do what she does vocally from our shores .Elaine Bookbinder and switched to Elkie Brooks what a great name change i love this girl ive booked tickets today for Elkie in London in September the farewell tour im gutted really ,shes the real deal and i still right on the money delivering a vocal

The super cool guy playing the piano is living his best moment...& this song , her voice absolute belter....👍👍

Brilliant combination of singing and instruments and rythym. I was in the airforce during the 70s when the best music was in abundance yet this song like midnight at the oasis had a special category of their own as well remembered and favourite songs. I will do my own version of this song love the beat

Hacker this 1'zzz 4 u

Beatiful sing

great voice

First comment and first like?? This never happens but girl I'm here for this moment

... Reminds me of Marti Webb.....both great singers..

I saw her live in Edinburgh circa 1999, a great show by all accounts

My Mum’s name was Pearl and as a child I used to sing Pearls a Swinger not knowing its meaning of course 😂
