Stunning music and lyrics, and vocals too. And to think she was just 19 when this was recorded...Incredible! They don't make 'em like this anymore. And more is the pity! The late 80's was a real music treasure trove.
Just as well, that lad looks a bit young, if she was 40, I'd be concerned for him 😜. But it's a truly beautiful song. Best UK soul singer in my view, her brother was also killed apparently in a street life type situation.
My girl you made my life meaningful through this song I survived the odds in my life but still love it big time with tears in my eyes ❣️ you strengthen ed me up
This song Awakens my childhood memories. Seeing her on tv, hearing this Goddess on the radio catalysed my musical passion. Years later meeting her, I regressed to a childlike state of awe. Me in her greenroom at Ronnie Scott's, eating quietly in her presence, watching her adoringly as she was graceful, humorous, kind with her band and me.... then she levitated to the stage. Her voice cracked open, infused life and cleansed my abused heart. She may never know her impact on a Lil black girl from Wolverhampton, who met her idol and was and still is healed and in awe. Thank you Goddess Mica. The God in me is revived by The God in you. Breathe life
Yes, awe is the word. That was my reaction when I met her in Southampton after a musical she was in with my husband. She was a goddess in the flesh and had such a commanding presence. But again, she was very gracious to me. :)
Arrrr my god ...sorry but this is exactly what happened to me and that’s why I found this tune 🙏❤️better not be the same girl ...no joking but it’s so uncanny ...amazing song
I know its impossible for me to get a reply from THE Mica Paris, but Mica if you ever read this. You were my music in 1988 to 1993 when it came to soul. I thank you for all those years of top notch music. Classic track.
I was lucky enough to be working a one off at a school ball (posh school) I have always sung as we all should.For this reason as well as absolutely loving her voice, I went up to the stage in the chef's uniform and watched her sing when I was supposed to be serving Probably had chilli stains on that attractive uniform, lol Perfect moment ❤
I was working over isle of dogs ,cross harbour doing nights we slipped of to the pub for a drink,,, on the way back onto site ,, we had to climb over a fence My pal fell into the dock ,, he drowned when the ambulance turned up ,, this song ,,my favourite at the time ,, was on their fkn radio ,,,
This girl has such an attitude, i met her on a flight, back from LA, after she had just attended the funeral of her then boyfriend, Ally Histon, in 2004, & all i wanted her to do, is to sing this song to my girlfriend, with me doing the backing, but she refused. I asked her 4-5 times, & she kept refusing, & then she even had the nerve to try to get me taken off the flight for harassment!!
I don't think if you had just burried your partner singing for someone on an aeroplane would be highest of your priorities.i would believe that she declined you politely initially being the soulful lady that she is. And fair play to her too.she wasn't having an attitude. She needed her own space to deal with her journey home and was badgered by you. May her partner rest in ✌😢

Her best song, in my opinion, still love it.
I think that Album is Underrated 😥..it Spawned a couple of Timeless classics 👏
Defiantly!
For me "it's can't seem to make up my mind"
I share your opinion. O
Personally I'd go for "whisper a Prayer"
This song has stayed with me since forever. Do not know the reason, and maybe I never will. Heart beat, breathing, rhythm, melody. It's enough.
Me too
Just love this song from when as young as 30.now im 64 ...wow!!
Mica was unique, tremendous singer and never got the recognition she so deserved. Shame.
Such a great voice and talent, takes me back to better times👍
Ya the year I was born
R Kelly you remind me
Beautiful woman & spirit.

You can now see her in Eastenders
Love that Belinda...
Mica has a great soulful voice mainly down to her being a Gospelsinger
I'm still here listening to this soul ❤
Still a top flight song imo, even today it still stands as one of the greats.! ✊♥️
I met a lady many years ago that gave me a copy of this album. Always think of her when I hear this. Hope she is okay, she was lovely.
Arrrr my god ...sorry but this is exactly what happened to me and that’s why I found this tune 🙏❤️better not be the same girl ...no joking but it’s so uncanny ...amazing song
Life won't be the same again 😪 😢
So beautiful
I honestly can't remember when this song was released, but I feel that it a totally beautiful song.
Beautiful sensual song ❤️👍
Mica paris was so-underrated
How is it possible that this amazing artist isn't in the billions of viewers!? I'm dumbfounded
the producer got an amazingly emotional performance from her - Great song made immense
goosebumps - breeeeeeeathe-life! The Voice since the 80s y'all
Reminds me autumn/winter 1988 and shopping in Hamleys and the two songs everywhere that day were this and Downtown 1988 by Petula Clark.
She is absolutely stunning

Russ Taff!
He released the song before mica

@@peterm2776 Is that you?
@@omargp777 No
Thiey dont know mica paris
'My One Temptation' was amazing, but its production did not capture the times as well as 'Breathe Life'
#balearic
Why u basically Ded or sumthing the old babe , #Mica
