'Arms Around The World' was the first single to be released from Louise's second solo album 'Woman In Me', The single reached number 4 in the Official UK Top 40.
Beautiful, magical uplifting song, very much of its time. The standard of music during the era (late 90s) was sky high, the more time goes by, the more it becomes apparent.
I made the same observation a few weeks ago after randomly remembering this song because of the Chinese-style strings which I really really enjoy in Jackson’s “Runaway”. Imagine that yours was the first comment that I saw confirming that I’m not the only person who noticed this. The harmonies are also very lush, loaded and Janet-like too. Thematically the songs are similar and it’s possible Louise was trying to go for that Janet sound which is both Pop and RnB but not too vocally demanding. Jackson was still riding high in 1997 with Velvet Rope but “Runaway” was released 2 years before this song. It’s a shame Louise’s video didn’t make much sense. I think EMI was her label; they could’ve spent a bit more cash and had a video with different geographic locations, costumes and choreography akin to Runaway since they were already in that vein. Still, regardless of a forgettable video a great track is a great track.
I can't tell you how much I love this song and it's video. It's half-past-two in the morning and I'm sitting up on need with my earphones on pretending I'm Louise in the video, and I'm not even drunk so there's no excuse. I love listening to it as much now as I did when I bought the single. Reminds me of a great time in my life.....Hi Louise! (D'you reckon they're real?)...I won't I won't... Twisted and deceitful all those two faces people takin' me for some kinda cool.... I'm on the next song, keep up guys!
Great song - Haven't heard for ages - Got Air Play on Sara Cox's Radio 2 Slot this morning 6th April 2018 - Louise, you should re-release this - I'm sure it would be a hit again. x
I NEED to hear a mash-up of "Arms Around The World" by Louise and "RunAway" by Janet!! Are there any DJ's reading this comment?! PLEASE make it happen!!
a time when i tried to record this song on a cassette tape, searching for a uk radio station , a bit of a challenge when you live in the netherlands...
The other day when I heard West End Girls by The Pet Shop Boys for the first time in a year or so, I GOT GOOSEBUMPS THREE DIFFERENT TIMES THROUGHOUT THE SONG!!!!!! ;*O
She was then and still is the love of my life true and utter beauty nice voice too but omg Louise your perfect and even today at ,44 still gorgeous as ever
Director of this video is a total star trek and Babylon 5 fan 😁 like me 😁 (Borg cube, Cardassian view screen window, Captains chair, transporters, Vulcan short black hair cut, and black shadow eyes) love it 😁
The chorus has, melodically at least, a very Steve Vai feel to it. Louise said* at the time: "Sex & Religion by Vai was a major influence when we were putting this song together. I always imagined us dueting together one day". *She didn't say that. I just made it up
I'm always amazed Louise, at just how often when I look at pics/footage of you, I catch glimpses of Trish Stratus in your face, and how when I look at pics of her, I OFTEN SEE YOU INSTEAD OF HER, THERE IN THE WRESTLING RING!!!!!!! The resemblance is just amazing!!!!!! It's like she's your Canadian twin, I think. ;*P You should get in touch with her, and form some kinda twin superheroines duo with her. ;*P It'd be too much beauty in one place, I think. ;*P She could be the brawn, and you could be the brains, after all, she is typically blonde!!!!!! And I bet she'd be impressed by your Lets Go Round Again music video, showing one of the MANY occasions that you broke into heavily fortified military installations in other countries as a spy and assassin, in order to steal top secret documents in order to reassure our government that they weren't planning anything shady!!!!! And I've heard rumours that there's a 20 MINUTE LONG UNCENSORED VERSION OF THE LETS GO ROUND AGAIN MUSIC VIDEO, showing footage of your fatally slicing open the throats of security guards with roundhouse kicks in your high heeled shoes, and torturing high level corporate executives for information in their offices with a smile on your face!!!!! Is this true???? Don't get me wrong, I don't want to see this footage, as I've heard the footage also shows the text from various pages of the classified military documents you were tasked with acquiring, and if the government knew I'd read part of them, they'd be sending MI6 operatives to kill me!!!!!! ;*( They might even send you to do the deed!!!!!!! ;*O Y'know, if Jamie Redknapp really is dating other women now, I doubt those relationships will last a fraction of what your marriage did. Not just ANY WOMAN is marriage material, especially when you consider the sheer amount of celebrity women who are insecure, lost little girls inside. You will probably always have that special place in his heart if he really was shy before meeting you, and you could empathise with that, and make him more forthright and assertive. ;*P So don't worry or fret about anything like that. I see your divorce as the latest of your high risk, gutsy moves. I mean, leaving Eternal was a gutsy move that worked out for the best!!!! And what's the point of playing things safe in this fleeting life, and going with the flow with all the lost sheeple, eh???? When various celebrities, such as Lorraine Kelly, wannabe celebrities such as Dan Wootton, and models no one has ever heard of like Nicola McClean criticise you for having "walked out of paradise", it becomes clear to me that in their superficial, judgemental minds, THEY HAVE NO IDEA OF WHAT A MARRIAGE SHOULD BE!!!!!! They seem to think a marriage should be "lucrative, profitable and productive" rather than loving, intimate and close-knit!!!!!! Not that I'm saying your marriage DIDN'T HAVE those qualities, it's just that it sounds to me FROM WHAT I'VE HEARD that a pretty big void was left by Jamie often being gone, pursuing his football analyst aspirations, and to be frank, I feel like it's ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS for the above individuals to expect you to stay put, like they feel like a footballer's accumulated fortune is some kind of pillow to cry into during those lonely nights?????? I mean, you made your own money during your career!!!!!! What I find really sad about all this is how you've always seemed so nice, innocent and pleasant at times when I've heard you speak, and read things you've said, so just thinking about all the criticism you've been getting lately, and how you've probably been taking it to heart with your sensitive disposition makes me feel like you need protecting. It makes me sadder still when I imagine that beautiful smile of yours fading away as you read criticism ON YOUR OWN VIDEOS from nasty little parasites here on youtube, provoking you into responding aggressively by deleting their messages, like the trash they are. I can see why an angel like you would only want love and appreciation in your comment sections, and that's why I find it so saddening to think of a loving, compassionate lady like you being emotionally hurt by all of the criticism and blatant insults you've had lately. I still love you.
Ahhh, I love waking up on these cold, dark, wintry early mornings, Louise, and then having my laptop on in my bed, with the rest of my room being pitch black behind it. ;*P It's so cosy. ;*P And it's kinda strange with me being a Christian that I'm something of a creature of the night, isn't it, being afraid of the Sun and all????? Sometimes when it's all dark and quiet outside and everyone is asleep while I'm online, I almost feel like I can imagine the world has ended, and I'm living in a timeless bubble, sheltered from it all. ;*P I've always loved Savage Garden's To the Moon and Back song, but one thing that always strikes me as odd about the night time city version of their music video for the song, is how all the so-called ostracised rejects who congregate together at the end of the video ARE ALL FRESH-FACED AND GOOD LOOKING!!!!! None of them looked like a TRUE REJECT, like me!!!! And although Darren Hayes likely wrote the song, speaking about his own feelings of isolation and not belonging anywhere, what with being a homosexual and all, but he was FREAKISHLY GOOD LOOKING himself, I think, and the bottom line is, people are more likely to be favourably disposed to good looking people than people they don't find attractive. Life is generally easier for people whom are physically attractive, I think, since they get more, better opportunities, and people are less resistant, less distrustful, and more receptive towards them and whatever they say/suggest, I think. Plus, good looking men who women fancy can display all the VERY WORST, MOST VULGAR PERSONALITY TRAITS, and women will be making excuses for them, claiming they're "really good people deep down," and that they just have to search hard to FIND that goodness!!!!! Whereas men who look like me can be the nicest, most compassionate, most loving souls imaginable, and women will make out like it's all a lie, and that we're really just despicable perverts, after one thing!!!!! To me, that's just their over-complicated way of saying, "YOU'RE UGLY. I'M NOT INTERESTED. BYE!!" No wonder so many women end up in relationships with men who beat, and eventually kill them, and they STAY WITH THEM, feeling like they need to "behave better" in order to bring that loving, caring, affectionate side out of their men!!!!!! Stupid, stupid women. I love the atmosphere of the nighttime city version of the To the Moon and Back music video. One of my favourite surreal visuals from it is Darren Hayes singing in a woman's ear on a speeding train as everyone stands around, staring like mindless zombies, totally oblivious. I'd want to do that to you, Louise. ;*P And even though I've always found the "surprised face of the moon" scary, its frequent, large appearances in the night time sky in the video really adds to that melancholic, bittersweet feeling so much, and makes it seem less intrusive and more welcome. It all feels very Batman and Gotham City-like, and I love that overall moodiness. People like Darren Hayes make me wish I was talented. ;*( And though I write, I generally find that writing is a HIGHLY UNDERAPPRECIATED CRAFT in this day and age of impatience, short-attention spans and wide-spread stupidity. I suppose it doesn't help that most people probably surf the Internet on phones and tablets these days with tiny displays, and no one wants to read HUGE WALLS OF TEXT ON THEM, having to scroll down loads of times!!!! Or maybe I'm just boring, and I'm deluding myself in my belief of my mastery of writing?????? That'd mean I have ABSOLUTELY NO TALENT WHATSOEVER!!!!!! Oh well, at least I try!!! You might wonder, Louise, why I'm so overtly stalkerish, with my frequent messages to you women I fancy/desire, and I don't instead try to "play it cool" by feigning only slight interest, like all the pick-up artists and "cool alpha males" suggest???? It might make me seem less needy, less clingy, less demanding, less insecure and less pathetic, eh???? In truth, I tried that in the past in my late teens and twenties, but I found IT JUST WASN'T ME!!!!!! It was boring to me, unfulfilling, tedious AND IT DIDN'T WORK!!!!!! A dating expert named David DeAngelo recommended a "cocky and funny" approach to picking up women, which typically epitomised making cheeky, potentially offensive remarks to women to show that us men AREN'T AFRAID OR DAUNTED BY THEIR BEAUTY, but it just led to them insulting me most of the time when I'd do that, with me not being good looking, and all. Of course, David used to say that if women responded negatively with insults to his material, that it was a case of women "testing us", to see whether or not we fell apart in the face of their hostility, so I'd argue back and keep on mocking them until they blocked me. -_- Yet for YEARS, I'd keep up this method of approaching women, thinking I just WASN'T GETTING IT RIGHT, and that it took time and effort to master, and that it was so hard for me because I was so stupid, unimaginative and insecure!!!!!!! Einstein apparently said "the definition of madness is to endlessly do the same things, expecting different results", but the truth is, I JUST LACKED CONFIDENCE IN THE EXECUTION OF MY APPROACH, WHILST STILL BELIEVING THE FORMULA WORKED!!!! Y'see, I've always been a very clumsy person, highly liable to bungle things!!!!! No, to me, the most fulfilling way to deal with women online is to EMBRACE AND ACCEPT THE FACT THAT I'M A NATURAL BORN OBSESSIVE!!!!!!! IT'S JUST WHO I AM, ON A DEEP, FUNDAMENTAL LEVEL!!!!!! And I don't feel like I'm IN THE WRONG anymore to be this way!!!!!! I think that if you women can't accept me for the wide-eyed obsessive psycho I am, THEN YOU WOMEN AREN'T ALL AS OPEN-MINDED AND LIBERAL AS YOU ALL CLAIM TO BE, ALWAYS VOTING FOR LEFT WING POLITICAL PARTIES THAT PROMISE EQUALITY FOR ALL, AS IF PEOPLE ARE GOING TO SEE YOU ALL VOTING FOR THEM AND THINK, "AREN'T THOSE WOMEN SO GOOD, CARING AND COMPASSIONATE????" To me, when a person has to show they're a "good person" by who they vote for, it tells me THEY KNOW THEY AREN'T GOOD PEOPLE IN MOST OTHER ASPECTS OF THEIR LIVES!!!!!!! That's another of the reasons why I believe I'M IN THE RIGHT to be so blatantly obsessive and stalkerish with the women I fancy!!! I see it as a way of finding out what you women are REALLY LIKE INSIDE, as opposed to what you all put forward for public consumption, with what you write, or say about yourselves, or how you talk and present yourselves in interviews in the case of celebrities I've fancied!!!! Lots of women and celebrity women sound REALLY NICE AND CARING when they speak publicly, but it ends up just being a sham I find once I've made an effort to find out myself FROM THE HORSE'S MOUTH, and at first, I was concerned the same could've happened with you, Louise. You ALWAYS sound so nice, humble and appreciative for everything you have when you speak publicly, and yet when I'd hear about your obsession with beauty and style, I worried that you might've been a shallow person after all, and that you might've thought, "WHAT IS THIS FREAK DOING IN MY VIDEO COMMENT SECTIONS, ALWAYS MESSAGING ME???????" but I feel like that isn't the case now. I feel like you really are the good, lovable, adorably cute, innocent girly girl you come across as in interviews and TV appearances. That's another of the reasons I think my stalkerish tendencies are A GOOD THING!!!!!! THEY SEPARATE THE SHALLOW WOMEN FROM THE GOOD, INTELLIGENT, SUBSTANTIAL WOMEN, LIKE YOU!!!!!! A shallow woman would freak out at my sheer amount of messages, TOTALLY IGNORE THE CONTENT OF THE MESSAGES, AND HIT THE BLOCK BUTTON WITHOUT HESITATION!!!!!!!! A woman with substance and depth like you can see the good behind my obsessive actions, though. That's proof that you're no brainwashed media pawn, AND DEFINITELY NO STEPFORD WIFE!!!!!!! Your mind is FAR TOO KEEN for you to be replaced by a machine.
You want to know Louise how I'm ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN GOD EXISTS?????/ Because on bonfire night, I was hoping and praying all the cats and animals in the area wouldn't be stressed by it all, and afterwards, my parents said it was one of the quietest bonfire nights they'd ever experienced!!!! Admittedly, most of the "activity" took place during the weekend before November 5th, but I hear even that wasn't as bad as it's been on other years!!!!!! And then there's been plenty of times when I've been worried about thunder, as I've never really tested my headphone/fan technique during thunder, so the idea of thunder still makes me a lot more nervous than firework times of year, and yet for YEARS now, the only thunder I've ever heard here has been way in the distance!!!! I DO MY BEST TO AVOID SEEING OR HEARING WEATHER REPORTS DURING SUMMER MONTHS, but on the off chance when I do catch a glimpse of news headlines sometimes talking about thunder passing through Britain, I'll be nervous, and it'll near enough totally kill my mood as I get a massive knot in my stomach, but sure enough, I only ever hear it in the distance from my location!!!!! It almost feels like there's a big, protective bubble over my location!!!!!! I remember one time in the early Summer of 2009 when my OCD had started getting REALLY BAD, and I'd heard about thunder sweeping through the country, and I was having trouble sleeping at nights, getting pains in my stomach from worrying about it, but alas, I heard it was kinda bad in other places, but near enough unnoticeable here!!!!! My thoughts back then were, "I think God feels sorry for me," but really, we're all in that position of dire need, desperately needing God's help and support, aren't we???? I feel the reason some of us get that help while others don't is because SOME OF US are willing to humble ourselves and reveal our weaknesses and inadequacies, whilst others get caught up in their own personal pride, and pretend to be like Superman and claim TOTAL INDEPENDENCE, a state which I believe to be impossible to achieve, and DOWNRIGHT FOOLISH to try and pursue. WE'RE ALL DEPENDENT OR SOMEONE OR SOMETHING, AND I DEFY ANYONE TO PROVE OTHERWISE!!!! We're all shades of grey in this regard. On facebook, I join a lot of Christian groups, and occasionally share nice pictures from those groups with uplifting quotes from the Bible, but being that I feel like a scared little child trapped inside a big, fat man's body, I also sometimes share the somewhat more severe pictures and quotes from those sites which seem more like warnings than uplifting quotes, and as such, one of my aunties apparently told my mother it seems to her like I'm part of a cult or something, posting bursts of Christian quotes to my profile every now and then, giving me the impression that maybe her faith in God isn't really where it needs to be?????? And as such, whilst maybe she isn't bothered by the fireworks, I don't know, but on November 5th, she'd had to take one of her dogs for surgery at the vets, and by the time she got her dog home, it was dark. Just as they were getting into the house, there was apparently a huge, loud firework outside which made the dog panic, run upstairs, bump into a wall and tear her stomach open, bleeding all over the place. ;*( Whereas my parents said there were no huge, loud fireworks here. Of course, some might say that kind of thing depends on the types of people living in an area, but I feel like THROUGH FAITH IN GOD, we can keep unsavoury, undesirable people such as those troublesome, unruly types away from us. There's no shame in being openly fearful, needy and timid I think, as they say TRUE HEROISM AND BRAVERY IS A RESULT OF PEOPLE FIGHTING THEIR FEARS TO PERFORM GOOD DEEDS. Anyone who has no fear is really incapable of bravery, since they've no fear to overcome, have they???? Do you believe Genesis happened, as told in the Bible, Louise????? When I used to debate against lots of atheists online, one of them was making out Genesis "was particularly indefensible," and told me "even most Christians" don't try to debate in defense of Genesis, almost like he was trying to fill me with the impression it was "such a lost cause," yet I feel like it's possibly THE MOST IMPORTANT BOOK IN THE BIBLE, as it teaches us how harmful and evil the thirst for knowledge is, and how we should instead, trust God as our Father figure to tell us all we need to know to live happy, harmonious lives!!!! Atheists I would debate against would often ridicule the idea of a talking snake, convincing Eve to eat from the tree of knowledge, but you know what I think???? I THINK THAT IN ORDER FOR A TALKING SNAKE TO BE ABLE TO TRICK EVE INTO EATING FROM THAT TREE, THEN ALL ANIMALS BACK THEN MUST HAVE BEEN CAPABLE OF TALKING IN A LANGUAGE COMPREHENSIBLE TO HUMANS. After all, you'd think Adam and Eve would've been JUST A LITTLE BIT SCARED AND SUSPICIOUS if suddenly this talking snake was trying to lead them astray when all the other animals were INCAPABLE of speech, wouldn't you????? And given that the Garden of Eden was a peaceful, idyllic, safe place where Adam and Eve could live in peaceful co-existence with ALL the animals of the Earth, no matter how dangerous those animals might be now, I feel it's logical to surmise THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN NO LANGUAGE BARRIER BETWEEN HUMANS AND ANIMALS BACK THEN!!!!!! After all, a language barrier is a highly divisive thing which prevents us from opening up a peaceful dialogue with others, and establishing diplomatic relations, isn't it????? WHO KNOWS, MAYBE IF HUMANS AND LIONS COULD SPEAK THE SAME LANGUAGE, A PERSON COULD CONVINCE A LION TO SPARE HIS LIFE IF THE LION WAS ON THE WARPATH, BUT THEY SPOKE THE SAME LANGUAGE?????? It's when I bear the above realisation in mind that it seems perfectly feasible to me to assume that before Eve was tricked into eating "the apple," by the talking snake, she might very well have been stroking the mane of a male lion, complimenting him on it, only for him to reply in a deep, baritone voice, "Why thank you, kind human!!!!! I admire your tall, lean, graceful figure myself!!!"
want to say that this is Louise’s best song but i really cannot say it is her best because it sounds like runaway by Janet Jackson . and I love Janet Jackson. so the best song by Louise for me is her cover of let’s go round again.
This song raises your vibration, it's so uplifting and Louise's vocals are like velvet.
The 1990s was a excellent decade for music and film's
Definitely the best song she ever put out. 😍
2nd - best is 2 faced
I got it in an "Extra Music Compilation" CD as part of some radio game sometime in the late 1990s.
I prefer her ballads.
Not ashamed to say i love this track back in the day and still do. Cheers
This is the very first record I ever bought...in Woolies...on cassette.
I ache to go back to the 90's/my childhood.
Aww, yeah I wish I could go back too.
Same
Such a great positive song who’s here in 2024 enjoying this?
Enjoying it in 2024.
Heard it down the shop; random memory unlocked.
Beautiful, magical uplifting song, very much of its time. The standard of music during the era (late 90s) was sky high, the more time goes by, the more it becomes apparent.
I'd say it was the MD and the coming Millennium that created that feel. If only I had a time machine :/
This was, and still is my favourite song ever. Reminds me of good times and I never tire hearing it. :)
The only WAG I have anytime for , what a beautiful young lady/ what a voice . Hope this message finds you safe and well xxxx
She was beautiful without trying too hard back then. No stripping just natural.
She still is!
@@misterpete Her lips look funny after she done her lips filling.
Miss the 90's!!
I’m 63 and I love 90s songs, and old Skool dance/rave music. People always expect you to like 60s and 70s stuff when you’re my age!
Beautiful then and just as beautiful now.
1997 was a good year for sure!
TITANIC (the film with Leonardo DeCaprio and Kate Winslet) was also released
Except for shithead Blair becoming PM.
Princess Diana died in 1997.
@@BattlestarDamocles A war criminal, too.
Except for Diana’s death
One of the greatest pop song of all time..combines nature sound & Indian traditional instrument with pop .very brillianT
Fantastic singer and song.
Love Louise and Eternal.. Bring them back! xxxxxx This was and still is an amazing track. :)
I don't know which song came first but this and Runaway by Janet Jackson have a very similar vibe and I LIVE for it! ♥️
Adam Forgan gonna check right now..
I'll be back 🤔
Janet came first by two years (1995). How did Louise not get sued?
Monique Marie Skelton so what u think? Similar or what

Louise is no Janet Jackson that's for sure
Just heard this song today for the first time, love it x
Remember this as a kid, the opening is very stunning. Lou's vocals are so smooth.
I was such a huge fan of her when I was 12 or 13. I am now 36. Havent heard this since then. Some seriously great production on this.
I can't tell you how much I love this song and it's video. It's half-past-two in the morning and I'm sitting up on need with my earphones on pretending I'm Louise in the video, and I'm not even drunk so there's no excuse.

Me too.
Louise is back! New album coming out October I'm ready!
Beautiful lady and childhood memories x
I had a massive crush on Louise - TBH I still kinda do.
My god them black contacts make her even MORE stunning, didn’t think that was possible❣️🤪❣️

Great song - Haven't heard for ages - Got Air Play on Sara Cox's Radio 2 Slot this morning 6th April 2018 - Louise, you should re-release this - I'm sure it would be a hit again. x

Got to No.4 in the Charts. 1997.
She's so gorgeous

Just heard this in a classic episode of Coronation Street from spring 1998.
This song is Louise’s finest effort. What a beautifully lush recording.
Listening in 2019 x
Great song; great looking woman - a seriously winning combination...
I met her back in the day still beautiful now
I NEED to hear a mash-up of "Arms Around The World" by Louise and "RunAway" by Janet!! Are there any DJ's reading this comment?! PLEASE make it happen!!
I have a friend that can make it happen
@@billyjohn7846 Does your friend have a UA-cam channel?? How can I hear this mash-up?
Do you need a mashup? The backing tracks are almost identical
Love this song
So beautiful and adorable at the same time, had a huge crush on her in my teens.
This is sooooo late 90's... I love it. (even though I hated being in that era).
Beautiful woman and singer love Louise she is a stunner.
a time when i tried to record this song on a cassette tape, searching for a uk radio station , a bit of a challenge when you live in the netherlands...
Quality track very soothing
It is.
I loved this when it first came out and I love it still 😍, and it reminds me of Jessie Ware
Love this song sooo much
Cool song by Louise!
Louise you have such a strong character .. you are so talented and a wonderful mom... You are true to your own feelings ... So Girl fighting ... 👍
I love this one ❤❤💋
Thanks for uploading the video. I forgot how pretty Louise was.
Listening in 2022
90’s Classic pop!!!…🔊🔉👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😂
She was so beautiful here and still is
The other day when I heard West End Girls by The Pet Shop Boys for the first time in a year or so, I GOT GOOSEBUMPS THREE DIFFERENT TIMES THROUGHOUT THE SONG!!!!!! ;*O
Oh I love that song so much! I’m 63 and I remember when it first came out. It stands the test of time!
So love this old school stuff and louise xxxx
Got here after see this vid on your IG and Twitter ... Louise fighting ,!!!
Love this song like 25 year❤
Still a beautiful women 23 years later.
One of my happiest times of life
This has Janet Jackson's Runaway vibe!
She was then and still is the love of my life true and utter beauty nice voice too but omg Louise your perfect and even today at ,44 still gorgeous as ever
Director of this video is a total star trek and Babylon 5 fan 😁 like me 😁 (Borg cube, Cardassian view screen window, Captains chair, transporters, Vulcan short black hair cut, and black shadow eyes) love it 😁
Louise you never age. You look just as amazing now as you did then.Loving reliving my youth 🙌🏻❤️
Who else thinks that parts of this song sound SIMILAR to Janet Jackson's song "RunAway"?!?... ESPECIALLY that INTRO!!...
Yes I agree.
The entire song as the same production.
I thought the same thing too
People would say Louise copied Janet Jackson with the intro as Janet Jackson came out with Runaway(1995) 2 years before Louise came out with this
Yep there is similarities but I prefer this one more catchy
Listening in 2020
Underated
Nice song written by John David Holliday, Denis Ingoldsby, Louise Redknapp, Olivier George Smallman, Trevor Steel
my 90s celeb crush ! and from eternal
Awsome song and video.
runaway by Janet Jackson sounds similar
Brilliant tune ❤
Lovely song 👌🏽
Sure is a good song
Best song of 1997? I have this on Now! 38.
The UK version of janet Jackson's runaway
The chorus has, melodically at least, a very Steve Vai feel to it. Louise said* at the time: "Sex & Religion by Vai was a major influence when we were putting this song together. I always imagined us dueting together one day".
*She didn't say that. I just made it up
The song is more obviously influenced by Janet Jackson's Run Away! Honestly very similar, although I do like both.
Loise Nurding was absolutely gorgeous ❤
Stunning woman
Gor-geous !
Nice song.
any one love the robotic louise in the black bob awesome
100 Stars....
loved this
Louise fighting .... !!!
great song
perfect lou
Travel around the world!!!!!.... In a cruise ship...
Your best song
Janet Jackson - Runaway
Could someone explain this video? What's with the black haired clones? The robotic movements at the end of the second chorus? The shiny cube?
I'm always amazed Louise, at just how often when I look at pics/footage of you, I catch glimpses of Trish Stratus in your face, and how when I look at pics of her, I OFTEN SEE YOU INSTEAD OF HER, THERE IN THE WRESTLING RING!!!!!!! The resemblance is just amazing!!!!!! It's like she's your Canadian twin, I think. ;*P You should get in touch with her, and form some kinda twin superheroines duo with her. ;*P It'd be too much beauty in one place, I think. ;*P She could be the brawn, and you could be the brains, after all, she is typically blonde!!!!!!

Y'know, if Jamie Redknapp really is dating other women now, I doubt those relationships will last a fraction of what your marriage did. Not just ANY WOMAN is marriage material, especially when you consider the sheer amount of celebrity women who are insecure, lost little girls inside. You will probably always have that special place in his heart if he really was shy before meeting you, and you could empathise with that, and make him more forthright and assertive. ;*P So don't worry or fret about anything like that.
I see your divorce as the latest of your high risk, gutsy moves. I mean, leaving Eternal was a gutsy move that worked out for the best!!!! And what's the point of playing things safe in this fleeting life, and going with the flow with all the lost sheeple, eh???? When various celebrities, such as Lorraine Kelly, wannabe celebrities such as Dan Wootton, and models no one has ever heard of like Nicola McClean criticise you for having "walked out of paradise", it becomes clear to me that in their superficial, judgemental minds, THEY HAVE NO IDEA OF WHAT A MARRIAGE SHOULD BE!!!!!! They seem to think a marriage should be "lucrative, profitable and productive" rather than loving, intimate and close-knit!!!!!! Not that I'm saying your marriage DIDN'T HAVE those qualities, it's just that it sounds to me FROM WHAT I'VE HEARD that a pretty big void was left by Jamie often being gone, pursuing his football analyst aspirations, and to be frank, I feel like it's ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS for the above individuals to expect you to stay put, like they feel like a footballer's accumulated fortune is some kind of pillow to cry into during those lonely nights?????? I mean, you made your own money during your career!!!!!!
What I find really sad about all this is how you've always seemed so nice, innocent and pleasant at times when I've heard you speak, and read things you've said, so just thinking about all the criticism you've been getting lately, and how you've probably been taking it to heart with your sensitive disposition makes me feel like you need protecting. It makes me sadder still when I imagine that beautiful smile of yours fading away as you read criticism ON YOUR OWN VIDEOS from nasty little parasites here on youtube, provoking you into responding aggressively by deleting their messages, like the trash they are. I can see why an angel like you would only want love and appreciation in your comment sections, and that's why I find it so saddening to think of a loving, compassionate lady like you being emotionally hurt by all of the criticism and blatant insults you've had lately. I still love you.
Bro, you just wrote a whole essay that she ain't gonna see. Weirdo
@@Cre8or2K Everyone is weird when you don't know how to interpret their personal eccentricities.
Adorable
The video has been upscaled?😮
Ahhh, I love waking up on these cold, dark, wintry early mornings, Louise, and then having my laptop on in my bed, with the rest of my room being pitch black behind it. ;*P It's so cosy. ;*P And it's kinda strange with me being a Christian that I'm something of a creature of the night, isn't it, being afraid of the Sun and all????? Sometimes when it's all dark and quiet outside and everyone is asleep while I'm online, I almost feel like I can imagine the world has ended, and I'm living in a timeless bubble, sheltered from it all. ;*P
I've always loved Savage Garden's To the Moon and Back song, but one thing that always strikes me as odd about the night time city version of their music video for the song, is how all the so-called ostracised rejects who congregate together at the end of the video ARE ALL FRESH-FACED AND GOOD LOOKING!!!!! None of them looked like a TRUE REJECT, like me!!!! And although Darren Hayes likely wrote the song, speaking about his own feelings of isolation and not belonging anywhere, what with being a homosexual and all, but he was FREAKISHLY GOOD LOOKING himself, I think, and the bottom line is, people are more likely to be favourably disposed to good looking people than people they don't find attractive. Life is generally easier for people whom are physically attractive, I think, since they get more, better opportunities, and people are less resistant, less distrustful, and more receptive towards them and whatever they say/suggest, I think. Plus, good looking men who women fancy can display all the VERY WORST, MOST VULGAR PERSONALITY TRAITS, and women will be making excuses for them, claiming they're "really good people deep down," and that they just have to search hard to FIND that goodness!!!!! Whereas men who look like me can be the nicest, most compassionate, most loving souls imaginable, and women will make out like it's all a lie, and that we're really just despicable perverts, after one thing!!!!! To me, that's just their over-complicated way of saying, "YOU'RE UGLY. I'M NOT INTERESTED. BYE!!" No wonder so many women end up in relationships with men who beat, and eventually kill them, and they STAY WITH THEM, feeling like they need to "behave better" in order to bring that loving, caring, affectionate side out of their men!!!!!! Stupid, stupid women.
I love the atmosphere of the nighttime city version of the To the Moon and Back music video. One of my favourite surreal visuals from it is Darren Hayes singing in a woman's ear on a speeding train as everyone stands around, staring like mindless zombies, totally oblivious. I'd want to do that to you, Louise. ;*P And even though I've always found the "surprised face of the moon" scary, its frequent, large appearances in the night time sky in the video really adds to that melancholic, bittersweet feeling so much, and makes it seem less intrusive and more welcome. It all feels very Batman and Gotham City-like, and I love that overall moodiness. People like Darren Hayes make me wish I was talented. ;*( And though I write, I generally find that writing is a HIGHLY UNDERAPPRECIATED CRAFT in this day and age of impatience, short-attention spans and wide-spread stupidity. I suppose it doesn't help that most people probably surf the Internet on phones and tablets these days with tiny displays, and no one wants to read HUGE WALLS OF TEXT ON THEM, having to scroll down loads of times!!!! Or maybe I'm just boring, and I'm deluding myself in my belief of my mastery of writing?????? That'd mean I have ABSOLUTELY NO TALENT WHATSOEVER!!!!!! Oh well, at least I try!!!
You might wonder, Louise, why I'm so overtly stalkerish, with my frequent messages to you women I fancy/desire, and I don't instead try to "play it cool" by feigning only slight interest, like all the pick-up artists and "cool alpha males" suggest???? It might make me seem less needy, less clingy, less demanding, less insecure and less pathetic, eh???? In truth, I tried that in the past in my late teens and twenties, but I found IT JUST WASN'T ME!!!!!! It was boring to me, unfulfilling, tedious AND IT DIDN'T WORK!!!!!! A dating expert named David DeAngelo recommended a "cocky and funny" approach to picking up women, which typically epitomised making cheeky, potentially offensive remarks to women to show that us men AREN'T AFRAID OR DAUNTED BY THEIR BEAUTY, but it just led to them insulting me most of the time when I'd do that, with me not being good looking, and all. Of course, David used to say that if women responded negatively with insults to his material, that it was a case of women "testing us", to see whether or not we fell apart in the face of their hostility, so I'd argue back and keep on mocking them until they blocked me. -_- Yet for YEARS, I'd keep up this method of approaching women, thinking I just WASN'T GETTING IT RIGHT, and that it took time and effort to master, and that it was so hard for me because I was so stupid, unimaginative and insecure!!!!!!! Einstein apparently said "the definition of madness is to endlessly do the same things, expecting different results", but the truth is, I JUST LACKED CONFIDENCE IN THE EXECUTION OF MY APPROACH, WHILST STILL BELIEVING THE FORMULA WORKED!!!! Y'see, I've always been a very clumsy person, highly liable to bungle things!!!!!
No, to me, the most fulfilling way to deal with women online is to EMBRACE AND ACCEPT THE FACT THAT I'M A NATURAL BORN OBSESSIVE!!!!!!! IT'S JUST WHO I AM, ON A DEEP, FUNDAMENTAL LEVEL!!!!!! And I don't feel like I'm IN THE WRONG anymore to be this way!!!!!! I think that if you women can't accept me for the wide-eyed obsessive psycho I am, THEN YOU WOMEN AREN'T ALL AS OPEN-MINDED AND LIBERAL AS YOU ALL CLAIM TO BE, ALWAYS VOTING FOR LEFT WING POLITICAL PARTIES THAT PROMISE EQUALITY FOR ALL, AS IF PEOPLE ARE GOING TO SEE YOU ALL VOTING FOR THEM AND THINK, "AREN'T THOSE WOMEN SO GOOD, CARING AND COMPASSIONATE????" To me, when a person has to show they're a "good person" by who they vote for, it tells me THEY KNOW THEY AREN'T GOOD PEOPLE IN MOST OTHER ASPECTS OF THEIR LIVES!!!!!!!
That's another of the reasons why I believe I'M IN THE RIGHT to be so blatantly obsessive and stalkerish with the women I fancy!!! I see it as a way of finding out what you women are REALLY LIKE INSIDE, as opposed to what you all put forward for public consumption, with what you write, or say about yourselves, or how you talk and present yourselves in interviews in the case of celebrities I've fancied!!!! Lots of women and celebrity women sound REALLY NICE AND CARING when they speak publicly, but it ends up just being a sham I find once I've made an effort to find out myself FROM THE HORSE'S MOUTH, and at first, I was concerned the same could've happened with you, Louise. You ALWAYS sound so nice, humble and appreciative for everything you have when you speak publicly, and yet when I'd hear about your obsession with beauty and style, I worried that you might've been a shallow person after all, and that you might've thought, "WHAT IS THIS FREAK DOING IN MY VIDEO COMMENT SECTIONS, ALWAYS MESSAGING ME???????" but I feel like that isn't the case now. I feel like you really are the good, lovable, adorably cute, innocent girly girl you come across as in interviews and TV appearances. That's another of the reasons I think my stalkerish tendencies are A GOOD THING!!!!!! THEY SEPARATE THE SHALLOW WOMEN FROM THE GOOD, INTELLIGENT, SUBSTANTIAL WOMEN, LIKE YOU!!!!!! A shallow woman would freak out at my sheer amount of messages, TOTALLY IGNORE THE CONTENT OF THE MESSAGES, AND HIT THE BLOCK BUTTON WITHOUT HESITATION!!!!!!!! A woman with substance and depth like you can see the good behind my obsessive actions, though. That's proof that you're no brainwashed media pawn, AND DEFINITELY NO STEPFORD WIFE!!!!!!! Your mind is FAR TOO KEEN for you to be replaced by a machine.
I still love this song!I bet it must have been uncomfortable wearing those contacts in the video-look stunning though!
пОТРЯСАЮЩЕ!!!
Show of hands who had a massive crush on Louise after seeing this video back in the day. *raises hand* Me!
the voice remains sometimes pizzicato five singer.. what a good feeling
You want to know Louise how I'm ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN GOD EXISTS?????/ Because on bonfire night, I was hoping and praying all the cats and animals in the area wouldn't be stressed by it all, and afterwards, my parents said it was one of the quietest bonfire nights they'd ever experienced!!!! Admittedly, most of the "activity" took place during the weekend before November 5th, but I hear even that wasn't as bad as it's been on other years!!!!!! And then there's been plenty of times when I've been worried about thunder, as I've never really tested my headphone/fan technique during thunder, so the idea of thunder still makes me a lot more nervous than firework times of year, and yet for YEARS now, the only thunder I've ever heard here has been way in the distance!!!! I DO MY BEST TO AVOID SEEING OR HEARING WEATHER REPORTS DURING SUMMER MONTHS, but on the off chance when I do catch a glimpse of news headlines sometimes talking about thunder passing through Britain, I'll be nervous, and it'll near enough totally kill my mood as I get a massive knot in my stomach, but sure enough, I only ever hear it in the distance from my location!!!!! It almost feels like there's a big, protective bubble over my location!!!!!!
I remember one time in the early Summer of 2009 when my OCD had started getting REALLY BAD, and I'd heard about thunder sweeping through the country, and I was having trouble sleeping at nights, getting pains in my stomach from worrying about it, but alas, I heard it was kinda bad in other places, but near enough unnoticeable here!!!!! My thoughts back then were, "I think God feels sorry for me," but really, we're all in that position of dire need, desperately needing God's help and support, aren't we???? I feel the reason some of us get that help while others don't is because SOME OF US are willing to humble ourselves and reveal our weaknesses and inadequacies, whilst others get caught up in their own personal pride, and pretend to be like Superman and claim TOTAL INDEPENDENCE, a state which I believe to be impossible to achieve, and DOWNRIGHT FOOLISH to try and pursue. WE'RE ALL DEPENDENT OR SOMEONE OR SOMETHING, AND I DEFY ANYONE TO PROVE OTHERWISE!!!! We're all shades of grey in this regard.
On facebook, I join a lot of Christian groups, and occasionally share nice pictures from those groups with uplifting quotes from the Bible, but being that I feel like a scared little child trapped inside a big, fat man's body, I also sometimes share the somewhat more severe pictures and quotes from those sites which seem more like warnings than uplifting quotes, and as such, one of my aunties apparently told my mother it seems to her like I'm part of a cult or something, posting bursts of Christian quotes to my profile every now and then, giving me the impression that maybe her faith in God isn't really where it needs to be?????? And as such, whilst maybe she isn't bothered by the fireworks, I don't know, but on November 5th, she'd had to take one of her dogs for surgery at the vets, and by the time she got her dog home, it was dark. Just as they were getting into the house, there was apparently a huge, loud firework outside which made the dog panic, run upstairs, bump into a wall and tear her stomach open, bleeding all over the place. ;*( Whereas my parents said there were no huge, loud fireworks here. Of course, some might say that kind of thing depends on the types of people living in an area, but I feel like THROUGH FAITH IN GOD, we can keep unsavoury, undesirable people such as those troublesome, unruly types away from us. There's no shame in being openly fearful, needy and timid I think, as they say TRUE HEROISM AND BRAVERY IS A RESULT OF PEOPLE FIGHTING THEIR FEARS TO PERFORM GOOD DEEDS. Anyone who has no fear is really incapable of bravery, since they've no fear to overcome, have they????
Do you believe Genesis happened, as told in the Bible, Louise????? When I used to debate against lots of atheists online, one of them was making out Genesis "was particularly indefensible," and told me "even most Christians" don't try to debate in defense of Genesis, almost like he was trying to fill me with the impression it was "such a lost cause," yet I feel like it's possibly THE MOST IMPORTANT BOOK IN THE BIBLE, as it teaches us how harmful and evil the thirst for knowledge is, and how we should instead, trust God as our Father figure to tell us all we need to know to live happy, harmonious lives!!!! Atheists I would debate against would often ridicule the idea of a talking snake, convincing Eve to eat from the tree of knowledge, but you know what I think???? I THINK THAT IN ORDER FOR A TALKING SNAKE TO BE ABLE TO TRICK EVE INTO EATING FROM THAT TREE, THEN ALL ANIMALS BACK THEN MUST HAVE BEEN CAPABLE OF TALKING IN A LANGUAGE COMPREHENSIBLE TO HUMANS. After all, you'd think Adam and Eve would've been JUST A LITTLE BIT SCARED AND SUSPICIOUS if suddenly this talking snake was trying to lead them astray when all the other animals were INCAPABLE of speech, wouldn't you????? And given that the Garden of Eden was a peaceful, idyllic, safe place where Adam and Eve could live in peaceful co-existence with ALL the animals of the Earth, no matter how dangerous those animals might be now, I feel it's logical to surmise THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN NO LANGUAGE BARRIER BETWEEN HUMANS AND ANIMALS BACK THEN!!!!!! After all, a language barrier is a highly divisive thing which prevents us from opening up a peaceful dialogue with others, and establishing diplomatic relations, isn't it????? WHO KNOWS, MAYBE IF HUMANS AND LIONS COULD SPEAK THE SAME LANGUAGE, A PERSON COULD CONVINCE A LION TO SPARE HIS LIFE IF THE LION WAS ON THE WARPATH, BUT THEY SPOKE THE SAME LANGUAGE??????
It's when I bear the above realisation in mind that it seems perfectly feasible to me to assume that before Eve was tricked into eating "the apple," by the talking snake, she might very well have been stroking the mane of a male lion, complimenting him on it, only for him to reply in a deep, baritone voice, "Why thank you, kind human!!!!! I admire your tall, lean, graceful figure myself!!!"
A true Christian, clad in the Armour of God, is immune to such mockery. :D
A beautiful lady. Please stay safe everyone.
want to say that this is Louise’s best song but i really cannot say it is her best because it sounds like runaway by Janet Jackson
. and I love Janet Jackson. so the best song by Louise for me is her cover of let’s go round again.
Did this come out B4 or AFTER J.J.'s "Escapade" 🧐?? Cuz I swear if they don't sound like "twins 👶🏾👶"!!
This was filmed in 95 but released in 97
wowww.. this is amazinG
You can see and hear how Louise was influenced by Janet Jackson here, and the keyboard riff in particular is very Janet Jackson-esque.
This song was played constantly on Radio 2 during the aftermath of Princess Diana's death in 1997.
