Прекрасное утро с прекрасной мелодией 💞
"Hello, my name is Fernando Martinez, and this... is Emotion..."
I was around for this track when it was first released, but Vice City just somehow seemed to make the music even better. Another 1980s track which hangs on the brilliance of a young kid making music that just doesn't get old.
I genuinely used to jump into the game and drive around aimlessly listening to Emotion 😂
Thomas Dolby's synths on this are from another world. Gives the song such a surreal feel.
His surname is Dolby, I would expect great sound quality.
A surreal feel? Hmm… but I agree with Dolby‘s synths are from another world. He is one of what I call the father of synths. Cheers from Bavaria
The Музыка навсегда...Спасибо за качество и хороший вкус...
A beautiful song .. One of my most favorite songs .. Thank you very much Phil 💜80s 👏👏👏👏👏
I'm still waiting. 🥰😍
Those are some wise words from a wise guru! So many out there still waiting....many simply compromise and end up with the wrong person and for the wrong reasons
Foreigner - Waiting For A Girl Like You (1981 Vinyl LP) Sept 28, 2021
So long, I've been looking too hard, I've waiting too long
Sometimes I don't know what I will find
I only know it's a matter of time
When you love someone
When you love someone
It feels so right, so warm and true
I need to know if you feel it too
Maybe I'm wrong
Won't you tell me if I'm coming on too strong
This heart of mine has been hurt before
This time I want to be sure
I've been waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life
I've been waiting for a girl like you (Waiting for a girl)
A love that will survive
I've been waiting for someone new (I've been waiting)
To make me feel alive
Yeah, waiting for a girl like you (Waiting for a girl)
To come into my life
You're so good
When we make love it's understood
It's more than a touch or a word we say
Only in dreams could it be this way
When you love someone
Yeah, really love someone
Now, I know it's right
From the moment I wake up till deep in the night
There's no where on earth that I'd rather be
Than holding you, tenderly
I've been waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life
I've been waiting for a girl like you (Waiting for a girl)
A love that will survive
I've been waiting for someone new (I've been waiting)
To make me feel alive
Yeah, waiting for a girl like you (Waiting, waiting for a girl)
To come into my life
I've been waiting, waiting for you
I've been waiting, I've been waiting (Waiting)
(I've been waiting for a girl like you, I've been waiting)
Won't you come into my life, life?...

Phil is "Waiting For A Girl Like You".
After the name Thomas Dolby was also mentioned here in the comments.
Here are a few background facts about Thomas Dolby and this song.
"Waiting for a Girl Like You" is one of several power ballads by the British-American rock band Foreigner in 1981. The distinctive synthesizer theme was recorded by Thomas Dolby, who was little known at the time.
Thomas Dolby, best known for "She Blinded Me With Science" - Phil this is a request! - played the synth intro, which was very atypical for Foreigner at the time but helped the song become a big hit.
The associated album, simply titled "4", was produced by Mutt Lange, who called the 19-year-old Dolby after hearing his demo tape.
Thomas Dolby said in an interview: ""It was great to work with a top band and a top producer - I was very inexperienced in the studio. And I associated Foreigner with solid hard rock and AOR radio and things like that, but they said that they had a couple of really great ballads and that they wanted to take a different approach to them. I think to be listening to commercial radio in 1981 and to hear 15 seconds of ambient music coming out on the front of the song was very unusual. A journalist said, 'This is a radical approach for Foreigner, who's responsible for it?' They would see my name on the credits, and go, 'Well, who is this guy?' So I think that it actually contributed in large part to there being a receptive atmosphere for when I came out with my solo stuff."
Thomas Dolby was born Thomas Morgan Robertson.
At the age of 16, he began building his first synthesizers - during which time he was nicknamed "Dolby" by his school friends for his experiments with synthesizers and recording techniques, which was derived from the Dolby Laboratories noise reduction process and which he finally adopted as his artist name.
In the late 1970s, Dolby worked as a sound engineer for several bands, including The Fall, The Passions and The Members, using PA technology he developed himself. In 1979 he formed the Camera Club with Bruce Woolley, Trevor Horn - Yes, one of the greatest producer of the 1980s, Geoff(rey) Downes - later i.e. ASIA, Matthew Seligman and composer Hans Zimmer. And yes, the Hans Zimmer! The fantastic phenomenal film music composer.
After the end of Camera Club, Downes, Horn and Woolley formed the pop group The Bugs. Dolby was still actively involved as a studio engineer though. Based on a joke that the Bugs could never be as successful as the Beatles, the new band soon renamed itself "The Buggles". But that's another story in music history.
Thank you 🙏 dear Phil for the great high-sounding "Waiting For The Girl". I think it was worth it.
The synth definitely makes the song
@@justinfletcher1937 You are so right. It was groundbreaking.
Благодарю за шикарный комментарий! Не знала этой информации...
I am an extremely hard person to please when it comes to synthesiser (or plain keyboard) driven products in pop music. In this instance I am just blown away. The gentle,
subtle crackles and pops of the vinyl add even more magic. I have always wondered whether a remix featuring the addition of a rhythm electric guitar, (like the one in Lennon's "Woman") would take it to an even higher level.
Probably the best Foreigner song ever imo
temazooo todo un clasico de los 80's saludos desde Mexico ...
Greetings from Scotland!
I was thinking about this song earlier tonight. I forgot to listen too it and then Phil on the spot. Thanks Phil. Your a mind reader. Your system is awesome Brother. I love the sound.
Fabulous 👍😊
So long
너무나도 오랫동안
I've been looking too hard
참으로 열심히 찾고 있었어요
I've been waiting too long
너무 오랫동안 기다려 왔죠
Sometimes I don't know what I will find
가끔은 내가 어떤걸 찾게 될런지 모를 때조차 있어요
I only know it's a matter of time
그건 시간의 문제라는 것만 알 뿐이죠
When you love someone
누군가를 사랑하게 되면
It feels so right, so warm and true
너무나도 따뜻하고 진실하게 느껴져요
I need to know if you feel it too
당신도 똑같이 느끼는지 알고 싶네요
Maybe I'm wrong
어쩌면 내가 틀렸을지도 몰라요
Won't you tell me if I'm coming on too strong?
내가 너무 적극적이라면 말해주지 않겠어요?
This heart of mine has been hurt before
내 마음은 예전에 상처 입은 적이 있어서
This time I wanna be sure
이번에는 확실히 하고 싶어요
I've been waiting for a girl like you
난 당신 같은 여자가
To come into my life
내 삶 속으로 들어오기를 기다려왔어요
I've been waiting for a girl like you
난 당신 같은 여자를
A love that will survive
영원한 사랑을 기다려왔어요
I've been waiting for someone new
나를 살아있다고 느끼게 해 줄
To make me feel alive
그런 누군가를 기다려왔어요
Yeah, waiting for a girl like you
그래요, 당신 같은 여자가
To come into my life
내 삶 속으로 들어오기를 기다렸어요
You're so good...
당신은 굉장하죠
When we make love it's understood
우리가 사랑할 때면 이해할 수 있어요
It's more than a touch or a word we say
그저, 손길하나, 말 한마디, 그 이상의 것이니까요
Only in dreams could it be this way
꿈속에서나 가능한할 법한 일이죠
When you love someone
당신이 누군가를 사랑할 때면
Yeah, really love someone
당신이 누군가를 사랑할 때면
Now, I know it's right
난 이게 옳은 일이라는 걸 알고있어요
From the moment I wake up till deep in the night
이제 내가 눈 뜬 그 순간부터 한 밤중까지
There's nowhere on earth that I'd rather be
내가 있어 더 좋은 곳은 세상에 없죠
Than holding you, tenderly
당신을 이렇게 부드럽게 안고 있는 것보다
I've been waiting for a girl like you
난 당신 같은 여자가
To come into my life
내 삶 속으로 들어오기를 기다려왔어요
I've been waiting for a girl like you
난 당신 같은 여자를
A love that will survive
영원한 사랑을 기다려왔어요
I've been waiting for someone new
나를 살아있다고 느끼게 해 줄
To make me feel alive
그런 누군가를 기다려왔어요
Yeah, waiting for a girl like you
그래요, 당신 같은 여자가
To come into my life
내 삶 속으로 들어오기를 기다렸어요
I've been waiting, waiting for you, ooh
당신을, 당신을 기다려왔어요
I've been waiting for a girl like you
난 당신 같은 여자를 기다려왔어요
I've been waiting
난 기다려왔어요
Won't you come into my life?
당신, 내 삶 속으로 들어오지 않겠어요?

Тов. Чынгачгук и Вам Доброго утра и дня! 🤝
Thank you. Funny how a music track can transport you back to the time and place when you first heard it. You have a superb choice of music, if I were allowed to make a request could I suggest some tracks from the Alan Parsons Project or Gordon Lightfoot’s Daylight Katy from the Endless Wire album.
Nice Foreigner song and sound so smooth bass bro. Mr.Audiophil next song please upload "I Want to Know What Love Is" from album "Agent Provocateur" or "Extended Version" bro, thx.
Thanks Eddy - I'll do it soon - hopefully the dislikers will forgive me ;-)

Thanks 😁
Good morning everyone !
Esta es una anécdota de Lou Gramm cuando estaban grabando en el estudio el tema "Waiting for a girl like you"
"I can remember one thing that happened while Mick and Mutt were behind the control board and I was in the studio singing 'Waiting For A Girl Like You," says Gramm. "There was this very attractive red-haired woman who was very well-dressed. She came walking into the control room and sat down behind Mick and Mutt. I was singing away, and Mick and Mutt were busy get ting the best perform ance out of me and trying to get me to stretch. This woman was just grooving to the song, and just before my vocal take for the song ended, she got up and slowly walked be hind them and came out the same way she came in. When the song ended, I asked, 'Guys, who was that woman?' And they said, 'What woman?' They had never noticed her, and to this day no one knows who it was. Maybe it was my muse. I was certainly singing to her."
What is the gain setting on your phono preamp?
Please upload the remix versions of Right Next to Me by Whistle..Also include the instrumental and the flute versions of that song.Thank you so much.More power to your channel.
LOU GRAHAM IS REALLY THE BEST SINGER ON THIS TRACK,KELLY HANSON IS GOOD BUT THIS IS CLEARLY LOU GRAHAMS BEST
+ 1
Ну что, похоже сегодня я первый! 👍
Да! На две минуты 🤗🌹
Waiting for a Smiths song...
Aw man, 6th grade all over again :)
You doing a great job, but the music you feature here is getting cornier and cornier each time. :D
Haha, sorry you're not a fan of the current tunes. What would you like to hear more of?
@@AudioPhil1 Ha ha... no problem - it is your channel at the end!
But it is very kind, that you ask what i’d like to hear more. My taste would be, more New Order, The Cure, maybe Avalon by Roxy Music, which is really a perfectly produced album? I got a original UK pressing and its one of the best records i ever heard!
Thanks - some great suggestions there and you have good taste! I've put them on the list so will get to them soon enough - it's quite the challenge thinking of new tracks each day :-)
