His concert in Belgrade in 1985 was the first concert that my mom took me. I was 10 and already knew all of his songs by heart. I still remember him in white leather pants and vest playing the guitar with his teeth. He was magnificent! I carry that image through all of my life, and this song remains my all time favourite to this day.
Glasgow, 1980s working in my fathers garage as a kid, my uncles in the summer working outside with their shirts off and dancing while working !. Yes, we had sun then ! I can see it like it was yesterday! Brings tears to my eyes. I just turned 54 and been out of Scotland for 30+ years
Brilliant artist ,guitarist, song writer and singer from what was a brilliant decade of music. The 80s simply was the greatest and how blessed I was living in it then and still enjoying listening to it today. Eddie grant was the man.
If you want to get your mind blown. Search for The Equals. They started in the mid-60's. Eddy was the principal song writer and lead guitarist. They had a couple international hits as well as a UK #1. The clash song "Police on My Back" is an Eddy song from 1968 with the Equals.
@@jamesa.5830 hi pal. Thanks for the info pal . I will look into them. Eddie great song writer , guitarist and singer , so will look into the equals. Cheers again and respect 👍🏾👌
In meiner Jugend auf Disco,merkten wir nicht,dass wir im Osten Deutschlads lebten. Auch die tollen Raggy Hits🥰 haben wir wie wild getanzt. Die schönsten Jahre meines Lebens.😍
he's from british guyana. eddy grant is their national proud and you could say best known export product next to sugarcane. i travelled through guyana, came in from the south, brasil, travelled all the way up north to georgetown where he lives, i stayed there a while and than i moved on to suriname (dutch guyana) he recorded his albums in barbados. one love Guyana, big up Eddy
One of the most underrated reggae stars. Still a favorite star of many South Africans with his catchy songs and simple, eloquent lyrics...This is one of my all time fave love songs from Eddy G..at countless parties and karaoke sessions, his songs resonate and remember as popular as ever here in South Africa 🇿🇦 🎉🎉🎉
Wow. Would love to meet him one day. Many a party here in ZA in the old days. We loved Eddie Grant at house and garage parties. Even with all our 'issues' in the day.
un grande eddy grant.... esos sonidos que saco en los 80... aplasto las listas de Nr1 en todo el mundo.... aca en argentina.... quedo mucho su legado...
Amo ese tema me crié con este tema hoy tengo 50 años y lo adora me acuerdo a mi mamá y mi niñez ❤️❤️💋 Eddy con sus vinilos de colores hermoso 💋 desde Argentina 👋❤️

Agreed. Ridiculous 😢
Muy cierto esta canción no figura en Spotify

Everyday without the original versions of his songs on Spotify is another day wasted.
Agree. We need them urgently.
😌
Came to comment this. Pisses me off it should be on there
Can't believe this song isn't on Spotify?? I have it on 7" vinyl, bought in 1980
@@donnacoulson7173 Me too! Somehow sounds even better on vinyl.
perfect teeth lol !! I m 53 but speaking seriously.. Never gets old.... A great singer ...wonderful songs, enjoyable, fresh touch!
If you're watching this in 2021, I love you and you're not alone.
What about 2023?
68 years old now and still a massive fan... all the music written since and nothing to beat it.
It's an absolute belter 👏 I was 15 in 1980. Just discovering cider and "love". Great times. 👍
When I was 10 , in Primary School someone in my class used to sing this to a girl he had a crush on. Still makes me chuckle. What a great song

Love this man absolutely brilliant I was born in the 80s how is red up with this man❤
This song was inevitable in France during the early 80's, one of the rare heavy rotation songs that never got me bored.
Absolutely perfect.. This song is heaven n he's pure perfection too.
I'm listening to eddie grant great singer loving this
I'd forgotten about this tune but I remembered it for this year valentine's day .

Этого певца очень любили слушать музыканты группы Аквариум. Регги был тогда в моде, в начале 80-х, в Ленинграде.
Надо же..
This is some great shit,shame this period of music ended, but they all do. Probably had to.
Rest in peace Colin middlemass we played this in your car driving down to Brighton 😎love you man 🥂🍾🍸🍺🍻🍹🍷🥃

majestic voice and very energetic music. Love the 80s songs including Eddy.

Eddys talents bought him huge chunks of the carribean! Respect!

The tasty guitar solo is the icing on the cake .
