God I miss the Summer of '83. I was fresh out of high school, working in Texas, staring at MTV like it was the greatest thing to hit this planet, and yes, Rick Springfield's Living in Oz was a part of it!
I loved Rick Springfield back in the day. I bought several of his albums(33s) and played them often. He is very underrated. He is a great talent and made great music. I’m 53 now and still a fan of his.
He's a good guitar player as well. You must have grown up in the 1980s. Those were the days!! I wish I could go back to those days because people are so uptight now and I live in the southern USA and thankfully people here are more low-key..
Rick Springfield was and is My Favorite Rock Singer! Very underrated as a Songwriter. Great Guitar Player and Performer! I love all his albums. He progressed as a Songwriter and Musician on each one. I saw him in Concert with Till Tuesday in Portland, OR, August 1985. Great Show! His Songs were the Soundtrack of My Life in the 1980’s! Thank you Rick for all the Great Music!
He is a solid musician....and a very smart guy...I think in the 80's his musicianship and intellect was overlooked, because Rick Springfield had 'The look.'
yumha38 I agree, granted I was born in 91, they way my mother speaks of Mr. Springfield is that he was hot so it didn’t matter how he sang. As a man I can say he is quite the musical artist.
@@Dragonballdave363 check out his early stuff I grew up on look up zoot elenor Rigby. You'll see Rick in a whole other light lol. He has a hard side to him
Rick Springfield makes great "top down" music. The kind of music you play full volume on your car stereo while driving down the highway with the top down.
This is a lost GEM. Man, I had (still have) a MASSIVE crush on Rick Springfield! I thought I was gonna die from the pain (the crushing pain) all the way back then. But here I am, in 2024, and I re-discovered this absolute BANGER of a love song from my youth, back when I was crushing on Rick. And it's like I'm back there, not here. If only for one video 💗💓💕💞😘
I believe that Rick Springfield should be in the RRHOF for sure. Good songs throughout the 70`S, 80'S and up to now. Great singer and great guitar player.
I'm so pissed that the media labeled Rick Springfield as a one hit wonder (Jessie's Girl). That was a great song, but he is NOT a one hit wonder. This song, among his many great songs, is the case-in-point. Even his music videos are so unique, and it compliments his songs so well.
If I figure right, it probably is the same media that said that Star Wars (1977) sucked and was horrible!! Looks like the media of the day really sucked!!
Crazy that this guy at 70 still sounds good as he did back in the 80s. Ive gone down the rabbit hole of Springfield music videos due to his recent funny version of Human touch, " No Human Touch " a couple weeks ago. Souls is one of my favorites. I'm 32 and grew up in the 90s and early 2000s, I grew up in the wrong decade! Lol
I literally lived the lyrics of this song back in early 2000's. Beside that, this song is expertly written and the guitar solo is fantastic with that drum beat behind it. This is by far my favorite Rick Springfield song.
Living in Oz album was probably what got me into rock music as 12/13 year old (saved pocket money for weeks to buy it) got into other singers/bands and when old enough started going to concerts and some of my best memories of nights out around the country meeting great people hearing great tunes, thankyou Rick Springfield you're awesome
I've always liked Rick Springfield, I remember when he got his big break in the early 80"s it was no doubt he was gonna succeed! just look at all those Pop Hits Like this one here!!! Rick Springfield deserves more credit than he gets!!!
I love this song too. It talks about heaven everyone should believe in God i am ready to meet God. I hope i go to heaven but if i don't i hope i have good family with me. I want to save the world but i don't think people are listening too me. Some people probably think i am crazy but it starts with one person. Then people should gone you. It doesn't matter if you are a kid or adult. You kids go find you a good church and a lot of times your parents will gone you.
Souls by Rick Springfield was showing on the Facebook page of fellow author and friend John Tucker as the last song he listened to on Spotify before his death earlier this week. As I was scrolling through my favorites on UA-cam, there it was. This time, I'm playing it for John. R.I.P., my friend.
Rick was awesome... this was by far my favorite he ever wrote... classic. I don't know why some of you are saying he was a one hit wonder.... he never was and he's not even listed as a one hit wonder. Were any of you even alive in the 80's?? I was I was a teen then.
dtvguy ishere I absolutely loved him when I was a kid! I know all of his songs lol. I've seen him twice. My cousin has seen him multiple times and has met him many times. He even sat on her lap once lol 😂
Very cool, so then you like alot of us can appreciate him and all his hits.... My older sister was in love with him... LOL.... Living in Oz was my favorite album he wrote.

Fresh out of college here but same thing 82 83 84!
I still blast Rick's music from my car as much at 54 as I did when I was 17 - friggin awesome musician
I'm 54 too!!!! I love his voice.
I'm 59 and still listening To Rick on UA-cam and in my car too! Huge french fan ❤❤❤🎸🎸🎸
Amen sister
Me too. I miss the 80's.

The 80s definitely rocked, if I had a time machine, I'd go back and hit rewind everytime we hit 11:59 on new years 1989......
In the early 80s Prince was singing about 1999. For what it's worth.
Souls is one of my favorites...
Rick Springfield was so underrated. His songs were awesome.
I think Jonathan Jackson should return to GH and reprise the role of Lucky.
I wouldn't be surprised if Rick and Jonathan are helping with writing the music for Josslyn and Cameron. It's just a feeling I have
Agreed
I agree he was a great artist
*his songs ARE awesome!
懐かしい〜すぅ😭😭😭

Michael, I saw him on that same tour shortly before you, here in Michigan! The Tao tour and Til Tuesday sang Voices Carry. It was my first concert. :)
Rick is one of the best male rock artists of the 80's ...high power high class rock !!
The 80's and Beyond he is very Relevant and Bad A$% Today! Performing Sell out Tours & Shows throughout the Decades.
Love Rick ever since.
He is a solid musician....and a very smart guy...I think in the 80's his musicianship and intellect was overlooked, because Rick Springfield had 'The look.'

His guitar style is what I've always dug. He plays with a raw skill that keeps changing but always for the better

Christina Streicher will do thanks!!!!
I had his posters All over my walls. Tiger Beat ❤️

Funny, cuz today Obama’s blasting love somebody doing exactly that !
すげーわ。

見れるなんて！
Seriously? He is not in the rock and roll hall of fame? Incredible musician!!! And awesome person!!!
How are you doing today...?
Thanks for your love and support!
The 80's were the greatest Rick Springfield when I think of the 80's he's one of the best I still listen to him good music doesn't get old or boring
@Richard Lewis Springthorpe USA Ct
A great song from "Living in Oz" , his best album and it isn't close.

Pop Rock at the highest level in the 80s.
Awesome guy. Love him since the 70ties and I‘m so happy he is still with us. 😍😍😍
Awesome song and awesome musician!❤❤🎶
OMG I was hoping they'd end up together!!!! way to make the suspense last till the last second.
Her reaction at the 32 second mark just cracks me up; yes, I enjoyed this song from Rick....1983-84 was his pinnacle in my humble opinion
I believe that Rick Springfield should be in the RRHOF for sure. Good songs throughout the 70`S, 80'S and up to now. Great singer and great guitar player.
Living in Oz was the first record i ever bought great album
One of the best axe solo's ever, off the cuff delivery and an incredible tone. Tim Pearce is sadly so underrated as a rock/pop legend.
No question Tim was the secret sauce...a monster player...his sound is incredible throughout Living in Oz.
and an active UA-camr much later on :)
@GVike I knew Tim was something special on guitar. Even when I first heard LIO In 83..I was like 15
@@Roc-Righteous I was trying to find guitar tabs for this - they don't exist anywhere! :-O
One of his best songs hands down, never got the true attention it deserved. Kicks ass.
This man needs to be inducted into the rock n roll hall of fame.....people go vote...i did =)
How are you doing today...?
Thanks for your love and support!
I'm only 42 but love rick's music
Great lyrics...two souls, one spirit looking for the other. Two souls searching for Heaven. Rick must have been a deeply routed spiritual man.
Still a fantastic singer and musician
This tune really rocks
Forty years ago, Souls were sold when this song was released. Rick Springfield is truly an Australian genius.
Rick didn’t have any gimmickry, just good pure rock!
2:48 love this section of the solo👍
Happy 38th Birthday to Souls by Rick Springfield 🎂🎁🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤
:) Saw him in concert last night!!! Sooooo Worth it!
Musical god. A collection that blows my mind.
One of my favorite RS songs! And this song does rock!
I love all of Rick's songs. Digging since college.
Gotta chuckle at Tim Pierce and his acting chops and biker jacket. Mad respect for his GUITAR chops, YT channel, and amazing love of music.
The amazing Eels that played with Rick through the 80's.

My favorite Rock Album is "Living in Oz" by Rick Springfield....Souls, Motel Eyes, Living in Oz, Human Touch, Affair of the heart...i like them all
Johnnie Campbell If you are talking to me, I don't remember. When did we speak?
I love "Affair of the Heart", too. :))))
Johnnie Campbell You do have a singer's name. JOHNNIE CAMPBELL... IN CONCERT!!! :))) Are you a musician?
I love Rick Springfield ❤️🥰😎💕🎸
This album was heavier than most rock albums then and still is.Fact check that!!!!
I love this song. So touching. Thinking its about him when he came to America and met his wife who I read was from Wisconsin. I am in Green Bay.
Living in oz his best in my opinion
This song kicks. Great everything.
正に私の青春です
What a Beautiful Soul Rick Springfield & what a Beautiful Video!
It’s been along time. Very nice song 💋🔥🥰
I fell in love with this song the first time I heard it!

Listening in 2020 Rick Springfield Rocks 🤘💞
I wish he would do this one live more often. Great song/video!
Got to watch him do it live last night!
I just now realized he was in a few episodes of supernatural as the devil's vessel

1分34秒あたり、「そんなに○○咥えて...…」に聞こえて以前、鶴光のANNのこの歌はこんな風に聞こえるのコーナーのネタにもなってましたよね。笑

Rick Springfield is one of the cutest, kindest, gentlemen out there! He rocks!!!!!! :)
Damn, he is one the best looking guys in history to play the guitar!
When I saw him in concert, he played all the songs I was hoping he'd play except this one.
Harmony with a driving beat and a story to tell!!! Love this! Haven't heard this song in years!
