I'm 32 and I already have a diarrhea attack because I notice how fast time passes but I knew that since I was little. I hope in the future I can put my brain in a VAT.
As much as I miss Robert Palmer I miss the time when this song was on the charts. It's hard to capture just how good it felt to have this feeling in the air. I know people go overboard with the 80's nostalgia, but really, songs like this make you understand why it's so prevalent. It was just a great time to grow up.
@@DrLoverLover I'm nostalgic for something real. This is something I think about a lot. The time period I grew up in was about the only good thing about my childhood. I'm sorry if it doesn't match your experience.
I agree. Was born in early 70's. So my teens entirely 80's. It was like living in a time capsule, never to be experienced again. The tale of the technology age.
A binary decade. Some of the all time best music, ever .... And mucho girl/boy band/mass production dross that ... well, shouldn't ever have happened! ;-) Still.... great Art wouldn't be great if it weren't niche?
I thank you Mr Robert Palmer. RIP. You were taken far too soon. You are leading the angels, in song,and voice. I discovered your unique voice very late. 😢😢😢.But i listen to you at every chance. Miss you, Mr Big. Your family would be so proud.
+SPECTERO FRANCHETTI actually, he was massively underrated in the UK, not the rest of the world. While his songs like this one became top 5 in the world, they hardly topped TOP 50 in the UK. Cant understand why, this is an unforgettable GEM from my youth...
+SPECTERO FRANCHETTi yes agreed the BRITISH press were pretty nasty towards him [when are they not really!?] the video always had special sentimental value for me and indeed much of the music of this era !!
I watched a French movie this afternoon - "Le Lycéen", or "Winter Boy" for the English-speaking market - and just HAD to sit and watch the yards of credits unroll when the action was over so I could get the name of the marvellous song that ended the film so suitably. Then I came over to UA-cam and here it is with all the words. So very well-worth waiting 43 years to find!!!!
I only came to really understand the true meaning of this song when my marriage was coming to an end. Such an underrated masterpiece. An epic voice and a talent who left us way too soon.
En allant sur UA-cam je suis tombée sur cette chanson. En lisant les commentaires j'apprends que Robert Palmer est décédé. Pour moi ce titre restera à jamais associé aux années 80 et à la publicité qui utilisait cette chanson et qui a permis de la faire connaître.
My favorite song, having crushes 😍 makes me feel like a teenager, and at my 40’s when I listen to this music 🎼 I get nostalgic ! Cause I can’t do dumb shit like when I was young, things like leaving all behind and go to chase the 2 girls I like the most between 7.3 billion people … one smile 😊 and one pair of eyes 👁️ put a light upon me … 🙏🏾🫶🏽 blessed 😇 the heavens for having you living here in these earth 🌍
Les puse a mi pareja de periquitos el nombre de esta canción, que tanto me gusta y me recuerda un tiempo maravilloso al que volvería sin dudar, con la gente que ya no está y la época en que fui tan feliz sin saberlo. Hoy mi Johnny se ha ido, a volar libre. Repentinamente, y Mary (su periquita) y yo nos hemos quedado desolados. Esta es mi canción y era la suya, la reconocían, de tantas veces que se la ponía en la tablet para que la vieran y oyeran. Un periquito es un avecilla pequeña, pero grande porque me llenaba el corazón. Y mi Johnny me llamaba con sus trinos... Vuela libre, y busca a mi mama, que hace poco se fue de mi lado también. Qué gran tristeza tengo 😥😭😭
Being just a couple of years younger than Robert Palmer (and a good Yorkshireman as well) I thought this man was the "coolest guy on the planet" during the seventies and eighties, so cruel he had to leave us at such a young age. RIP Robert and thank you for the music you have left behind for us.
I understand what you're saying, but wonder whether it *has* to be that way. What if Johnny wasn't constantly chasing certainty or acknowledgement? What if Mary said "enough of this shit marriage"? These lyrics in just three minutes portray two deeply unhappy characters who are stuck in their unhappy groove. Such mastery of words!
I know all generations have their vibe and sound but when I listen to stuff like this I realise that young people live in a cultural desert and my generation really had all the gems...God we were a blessed generation
Turn this around...the conclusion should be...this fells so bad because of the songs that are. Im 36 and early this year i discoverd joy division and i never even felt more than understanding and honest appreciation for finding true love and passion and to this day i sometimes start to cry out of pure joy and happiness.And im still not able to understand the reason why all this affection all the love and joy he gave us when he wasnt able to even feel by himself.Sry bad language and spelling.Thanks for sharing guys...take care!!!
Here we are 2022 finding ourselves listening to one of the greatest songs of the 80`s realizing how many indisputable great songs Robert Palmer offered to us! Thank you very much, Robert 🤫😍🥰🙏🏻😇!
Just when I thought I possibly couldn't be transported back 42 years again, this one shows up!💓 Robert Palmer was in a Class all in his own!😎 To the days we thought would last forever!!!💕
I was a teenager in the 80s, an era of the greatest music ever. And, yet, whenever this song came up on the radio, I would stop everything I was doing and just immerse myself in it.
I forgot this was a Robert Palmer song. And I was in Massachusetts at *Kolburne School* when it came out and used to blast it thru the dorms then on repeat .
I was 7 when this came out. I remember this like it was yesterday. I've always loved Robert ever since... this song is so unique sounding, calming melody, but kind of a sad meaning. I can't believe this is 43 years old! WHERE DOES TIME GO??!!
Johnny's always running around Trying to find certainty He needs all the world to confirm That he ain't lonely Mary counts the walls Knows he tires easily Johnny thinks the world would be right If it could buy truth from him Mary says he changes his mind More than a woman But she made her bet Even when the chance was slim Running around Running around Johnny says he's willing to learn When he decides he's a fool Johnny says he'd live anywhere When he earns the time Mary combs her hair Says she should be used to it Mary always hedges her bets She never knows what to think She says that he still acts like he's Being discovered Scared that he'll be caught Without a second thought Running around Running around Running around Running around Johnny feels he's wasting his breath Trying to talk sense to her Mary says he's lacking a Real sense of proportion So she combs her hair Knows he tires easily Johnny's always running around Trying to find certainty He needs all the world to confirm That he ain't lonely Mary counts the walls Says she should be used to it Running around Running around Running around Running around
1980: One of the best songs in the world!!! 2021: One of the best songs in the world!!! 2022: One of the best songs in the world!!! 9997: One of the best songs in the world!!!
In all seriousness, I do wonder what people in 9997 will know about us. Theoretically, since digital tech and the Internet, there could always be a perfect record of history. Videos, songs, as if they were made yesterday. We don't have that from 8000 years ago!
This song came up on Spotify, never heard it before. I knew his other work in the 90s. Never heard this gem. Probably because I wasn't alive when it came out. What a masterpiece.
51 and its all behind me now, but when I listen to this, I remember the times when it was all in front of me. Greatful to have listened to this man's music. God bless RIP
+MephProduction A LOT of what was produced in 1980 still sounds fresh in the 21st Century. That's one of the things that made/makes the 1980s so special and great.
This was the first song I ever heard from Robert Palmer. I love the texture of his voice on this song. So different from his later and more popular stuff. This is a gem.
"Johnny feels he's wasting his breath Trying to talk sense to her Mary says he's lacking a real Sense of proportion" best ever lyric and so profound. can't be arguing with someone who doesn't understand my troubles.
How tremendously beautiful this is. His voice, the pantomime, the story... Robert looking through the curtain...*sigh*...I'm growing more in love with him everyday. RIP.
Heard this on the radio today and I instantly thought Renault! Never heard the full version before. That heavy, deep electronic sound adds uncertainty.

19 then. 63 now, 44 years gone in a blink of a brilliant song. Merry Christmas.
And Merry Christmas to you..am listening to this through some good headphones 🎧.. Bluetooth time machine..ah nostalgia
Yup time flies. Enjoy it while you can.
Same
What an era to live in and congratulations on the long life and to many more!

I know people go overboard with the 80's nostalgia, but really, songs like this make you understand why it's so prevalent. It was just a great time to grow up.
........there's a reason mid aged adults express they're sorrow for the young. ........especially this batch.
No it wasnt. Youre just nostalgic. It does that
@@DrLoverLover .......looks like misery can be un-nostalgic too.
@@DrLoverLover I'm nostalgic for something real. This is something I think about a lot. The time period I grew up in was about the only good thing about my childhood. I'm sorry if it doesn't match your experience.
@@DrLoverLover Wow - not a clue, the 80's was an incredible decade. Try comparing it to the horror show we are living atm.
RIP Robert Bryan Ferry's rendition of this song is sublime, just unique and sublime, you'd be very proud!
Robert Palmer es Dios luego vino la versión de Bryan Ferry que aún sabiendo que es buena, ésta es sublime!
one of the best things about 50 years old,is the fact that i lived my teenage in the 80's that is priceless and Iam grateful !!!
I’m 98’s and I wanted feel what you lived in 80’s :( I wanted really born in that period
This is priceless,i was lucky,too!
Not born in the 80's. Its about you lived that period as a teenager, like me. ('68) I asure you, nowday's i appreciate it more then ever.
Amen to that. Kinda makes you feel blessed.
I agree. Was born in early 70's. So my teens entirely 80's. It was like living in a time capsule, never to be experienced again. The tale of the technology age.
The fact that he died at the age of 54 is criminal. RIP Robert Palmer. One of the greatest songs of all time.
if not mistaken he went through a pack a day or two? Yeah, wish he could of been around much longer for us. He was a cool cat for sure
Criminal by whom?
@@truthreignsforever9286 Yes, he smoked up to 60 cigarettes a day. That's never going to end well for anyone. An awful shame.
@@yesackram agree
no amount of talent can help you if you don't take care of your innards
The line "He needs all the world to confirm that he ain't lonely" sounds like most people on social media today.
Think you are right there.
It's not just people's opinions saying 80s music was incredible, it's a fact.
Affirmative
A binary decade. Some of the all time best music, ever ....
And mucho girl/boy band/mass production dross that ... well, shouldn't ever have happened! ;-)
Still.... great Art wouldn't be great if it weren't niche?
I think Robert Palmer is one of the uk’s best singers
After 20 years I finally found the song that I liked from my parents car.
you are speaking out of my soul... same here! But in my case after 30 years...
OMG me to
Sol Badguy maybe he didn't know the title of the song, you stupid fucker
Defo. This and a-ha take on me and you can call me al lol. Nostalgia.
My brother played this all the time, it was his birthday today and it came on the radio.
Great song.
Such s shame robert palmers gone now.all his songs were virtuoso but big hits like this one simply irrestable and addicted to love .
This is Robert's best song😀 R.I.P.😔
There are a lot of contenders for that title. But I think you may be right.
I thank you Mr Robert Palmer. RIP. You were taken far too soon. You are leading the angels, in song,and voice. I discovered your unique voice very late. 😢😢😢.But i listen to you at every chance. Miss you, Mr Big. Your family would be so proud.
WHO'S LISTENING IN 2020?
Robert Palmer Forever
On the same day 👌🇮🇪👋
Will never stop.
Great song even a wank video can't spoil !!!!👻👻👻
Always! From Mexico City.
Germany, Berlin 2020
He was massively underrated was Robert such a shame. When he died the British press didn't really give a shit. Love you man.
+SPECTERO FRANCHETTI actually, he was massively underrated in the UK, not the rest of the world. While his songs like this one became top 5 in the world, they hardly topped TOP 50 in the UK. Cant understand why, this is an unforgettable GEM from my youth...
+SPECTERO FRANCHETTI and in Latin America, this song peaked Nr 1 for several weeks...
+SPECTERO FRANCHETTi yes agreed the BRITISH press were pretty nasty towards him [when are they not really!?] the video always had special sentimental value for me and indeed much of the music of this era !!
+SPECTERO FRANCHETTI Exactly what I was thinking .The clip for this is elegant minimalist and mesmerizing
I imagine the British Press were too busy trying to get pictures of Princess Diana's nipples to care about anything else.
When I miss my dad I listen to this. I miss you dad!
Me too :)
I watched a French movie this afternoon - "Le Lycéen", or "Winter Boy" for the English-speaking market - and just HAD to sit and watch the yards of credits unroll when the action was over so I could get the name of the marvellous song that ended the film so suitably. Then I came over to UA-cam and here it is with all the words. So very well-worth waiting 43 years to find!!!!
Love this! From irrrland x
wow I found the song i was looking for 20 years by accident.
Forgotten under rated under played classic
Proud to call my self a Yorkshireman, after this Batley Lad 👍, top bloke ,
I've loved this tune since I was a child. I find Robert Palmers voice so relaxing.
Agreed.
❤️❤️❤️
Such a soothing voice. He provided certainty.
I only came to really understand the true meaning of this song when my marriage was coming to an end. Such an underrated masterpiece. An epic voice and a talent who left us way too soon.
Newly divorced here, this song has been on my playlist for a few months now.
This songs about being disillusioned with politicians
This song reminds me of my relationship at the time this came out
It, this song, always makes me feel like a sad hand is touching my heart. Hope you came out ok on the other side.

Cocaine. His love and his death.
He really was a Gem

It's beautiful

Like Golden Brown by the Stranglers
Merci Nota Bene pour ça !
what a legend, so underrated. rip main man.
I love this song. Could listen to it on repeat. Never get tired of.
Such an odd song.
Unsettling and welcoming to the child I was then and the child I remain.
Tragic and beautiful.
Life in other words.

The melancholy of never growing up.
? Bit of a paradox here.
Me the same. I must speak for Luke. Same feeling here...
@@Zerschmetterling-pg3ph you guys been together for long? I can sense that the love you have for Luke is genuine and that's a beautiful thing.
@@peripheralperception2267 See it on a platonic level...these songs from the 80´s trigger a lot in people from back then.
Gone 20 years ago today. Not a SINGLE day forgotten!
How to write a catchy song that people will remember 40+ years later. R.I.P. Robert Palmer. You left this world way too soon.
Les puse a mi pareja de periquitos el nombre de esta canción, que tanto me gusta y me recuerda un tiempo maravilloso al que volvería sin dudar, con la gente que ya no está y la época en que fui tan feliz sin saberlo.
Hoy mi Johnny se ha ido, a volar libre. Repentinamente, y Mary (su periquita) y yo nos hemos quedado desolados.
Esta es mi canción y era la suya, la reconocían, de tantas veces que se la ponía en la tablet para que la vieran y oyeran.
Un periquito es un avecilla pequeña, pero grande porque me llenaba el corazón. Y mi Johnny me llamaba con sus trinos... Vuela libre, y busca a mi mama, que hace poco se fue de mi lado también. Qué gran tristeza tengo 😥😭😭
Gee-nee-us ... so different, so good.
One of the most beautiful songs of early eighties.
Back when musicians had such incredible lyrics to go with their fantastic music.
And style.
And real vocals
1980-81.....grade 7....listening to it on the radio in the dark.
In France we had this song in each renault spot TV. It 's for me a real memorial sweet of my childhood in 80's.
That amazing synth line that runs through Johnny and Mary. I could never get enough. I wish more records had this.
Being just a couple of years younger than Robert Palmer (and a good Yorkshireman as well) I thought this man was the "coolest guy on the planet" during the seventies and eighties, so cruel he had to leave us at such a young age. RIP Robert and thank you for the music you have left behind for us.
Yeah!
So perfectly nails the sadness of the human condition. Brilliant 👏.... Robert Palmer. Those of us who know, KNOW...
True!
I understand what you're saying, but wonder whether it *has* to be that way.
What if Johnny wasn't constantly chasing certainty or acknowledgement? What if Mary said "enough of this shit marriage"?
These lyrics in just three minutes portray two deeply unhappy characters who are stuck in their unhappy groove. Such mastery of words!
@@whatshername656 perfect.
There are many covers of this song, but nobody can touch the man himself. Very unappreciated artist RIP Mr P
yes indeed
Renault, des voitures a vivre.....
Master piece from the 80'
Hahaha, you remember the Renault commercial? Here in Portugal they used the same song. :D
I’m desperately trying to find the saxophone instrumental version from one of the 90s Renault ads. It’s lovely
totally!
"Papa!"
"Nicole!"
I was asking about that commercial spot on 80s tv.
Played this at my wedding reception 1980 [still married!] LOL
Felicidades
This is very nice
noice
And still married ?
love u for that comment. hugs
Il me semblait bien que je l'avais entendu quelque part .... tu es toujours dans mes pensées mon z.
I know all generations have their vibe and sound but when I listen to stuff like this I realise that young people live in a cultural desert and my generation really had all the gems...God we were a blessed generation
I’m 27 and can’t get enough of this song✋ but my generation has our gems too, every generation does :)
One of the worst things in my musical life is the knowledge that there will never be a new Robert Palmer record.
So fair
Man, that hurts to accept
you made me cry.
Turn this around...the conclusion should be...this fells so bad because of the songs that are. Im 36 and early this year i discoverd joy division and i never even felt more than understanding and honest appreciation for finding true love and passion and to this day i sometimes start to cry out of pure joy and happiness.And im still not able to understand the reason why all this affection all the love and joy he gave us when he wasnt able to even feel by himself.Sry bad language and spelling.Thanks for sharing guys...take care!!!
@TealCircle he died😭
Here we are 2022 finding ourselves listening to one of the greatest songs of the 80`s realizing how many indisputable great songs Robert Palmer offered to us!
Thank you very much, Robert 🤫😍🥰🙏🏻😇!
Jan 5, 2023 i just Shazamed it from the radio 😅
Died too soon. His contrutions to the music business is underated. His contructions to the Power Station was aresome. His solo music was genisus.
Nach über 40 Jahren immer noch so verdammt gut.
Simple, looping, and timeless. We miss you, Robert. RIP.
*"he needs all the world to confirm that he ain't lonely"* 💔🎶
sidDkid87 isn’t that so poignant...❤️
@@DeidreL9 yes - speaks so eloquently about the human condition, insecurities
Bingo
I just love the ridiculously tight and clean sound. Great precision and great sound!
Just when I thought I possibly couldn't be transported back 42 years again, this one shows up!💓
Robert Palmer was in a Class all in his own!😎
To the days we thought would last forever!!!💕
I was a teenager in the 80s, an era of the greatest music ever.
And, yet, whenever this song came up on the radio, I would stop everything I was doing and just immerse myself in it.
The driving bass is magnificent
You'll like Fleetwood Mac's "the chain" then too I guess
If you get past 3min in on the chain there's a nice bass section that iirc was used by some sports racing car program on UK tv back in the day
I love it
Listened to this song for decades, but haven’t commented on it. This is an unmitigated classic song.
I think 1980 or 81, I was 18 in '81 this song and others were the best time of my life 43 years ago
I’ll miss this song when I’m sleeping eternally.
Parmy all ready up there..who knows
@@MrSomanon of us know what eternity holds for us.
Well I´m 15 now,my father showed me a lot of Oldie´s but this one ! Is just absolutly my favorite!
Wait till your 40 and lived it .....
Then youll have a very different opinion of it
Some songs take a life time to hit
@@rainblaze. at first your comment made me cringe, then I realized I'm another Johnny too... still a great song though.
Love this young man
Oh crap... brought tears to my eyes. How I miss the time I heard this song almost every weekend.
Me too.
...like seriously, if I had written this song, I would've just stopped after. Perfect... 😌
Beautiful song , Wen this came out , I had no idea 🚀❤❤
I think that his brilliance is the fact his voice works perfectly with the instruments. Perfectly.possibly only Prince had the same gift
I finally found it
Robert Palmer Rules!!! Jhonny and Mary too!
I forgot this was a Robert Palmer song. And I was in Massachusetts at *Kolburne School* when it came out and used to blast it thru the dorms then on repeat .
I was 7 when this came out. I remember this like it was yesterday. I've always loved Robert ever since... this song is so unique sounding, calming melody, but kind of a sad meaning. I can't believe this is 43 years old! WHERE DOES TIME GO??!!
running...
Robert Palmer is it good looking guy it's a shame he left the planet so soon 2:47 2:47
Discovered this yesterday, what a great song from 1980!
R.I.P.: Robert P. / Great Musican - Great Songs: I love this SONG
Johnny's always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Knows he tires easily
Johnny thinks the world would be right
If it could buy truth from him
Mary says he changes his mind
More than a woman
But she made her bet
Even when the chance was slim
Running around
Running around
Johnny says he's willing to learn
When he decides he's a fool
Johnny says he'd live anywhere
When he earns the time
Mary combs her hair
Says she should be used to it
Mary always hedges her bets
She never knows what to think
She says that he still acts like he's
Being discovered
Scared that he'll be caught
Without a second thought
Running around
Running around
Running around
Running around
Johnny feels he's wasting his breath
Trying to talk sense to her
Mary says he's lacking a
Real sense of proportion
So she combs her hair
Knows he tires easily
Johnny's always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Says she should be used to it
Running around
Running around
Running around
Running around
People today wouldn’t even know the meaning of the term to “hedge a bet.”
1980: One of the best songs in the world!!!
2021: One of the best songs in the world!!!
2022: One of the best songs in the world!!!
9997: One of the best songs in the world!!!
t'as oublié 5781
More than right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In all seriousness, I do wonder what people in 9997 will know about us. Theoretically, since digital tech and the Internet, there could always be a perfect record of history. Videos, songs, as if they were made yesterday.
We don't have that from 8000 years ago!
What an original comment ( not)
One of the greatest songs of the 80’s, I never tire of it.
This song came up on Spotify, never heard it before. I knew his other work in the 90s. Never heard this gem. Probably because I wasn't alive when it came out. What a masterpiece.
Love this song forever ❤️ Thank you Robert R. I. P the song will be forever ❤️
makes me feel so sad for something i can't even know
Johnny and Mary for ever.
Pura emozione questa musica 80❤️💯💯💯beautiful for ever.

+MephProduction A LOT of what was produced in 1980 still sounds fresh in the 21st Century. That's one of the things that made/makes the 1980s so special and great.

40yrs listening to this little gem .... a good tune never dies.
Hey I'm 22 lol
What a beautiful and heart wrenching song
This was the first song I ever heard from Robert Palmer. I love the texture of his voice on this song. So different from his later and more popular stuff. This is a gem.
I really wish we heard his earlier stuff on the radio more.
This was my intro to Robert Palmer also, such an original and engaging tune and sublime voice, forever a favourite.
"Johnny feels he's wasting his breath
Trying to talk sense to her
Mary says he's lacking a real
Sense of proportion"
best ever lyric and so profound. can't be arguing with someone who doesn't understand my troubles.
He was so classy. Died way too soon. His contribution to the the Power Station was unforgettable. Long live Robert Palmer!
Impossible to explain how good this is
How tremendously beautiful this is. His voice, the pantomime, the story... Robert looking through the curtain...*sigh*...I'm growing more in love with him everyday. RIP.
+Luciana Sol He truly was an underrated genius. I really miss his talents...
Luciana Sol sadly... our old Bob, has no more days to reflect on the caliente mulatas anymore.
The mimes are Shields and Yarnell.
The deep note on 1:16 that doesn’t show in the beginning, but remains for the rest of the song, makes it dramatic and nice.
Love this tune so much.
this song has something that no other song has
Its worth waiting for
Heard this on the radio today and I instantly thought Renault!
Never heard the full version before. That heavy, deep electronic sound adds uncertainty.
Beautiful song, classy music! Thank you, RIP Mr Robert Palmer for giving us this wonderful piece.
L'ascolto sempre e bellissima.e.d Amore.👍
Walmart played this while I was shopping for yogurt. I'd forgotten how much I liked it. God Bless Robert Palmer. And Walmart.
Rest in peace, Robert Palmer
My favorite Robert Palmer song. Wish he wrote more like it..rip Robert.
Ricordi d'infanzia...ho ancora il 45 giri...
