    Other great songs by him are; "Endless Summer nights", "Hold on to the Nights". He was also a great song writer. You recently reacted to "This I promise you" by Nsync. Richard Marx wrote that.

    Should've Known Better is a great 80s pop/rock song from him (his original, not his remake). But Hazard was #1 in Australia for about 8 weeks and tells a great story of a murder. Early 90s

    Richard Marx is amazingly talented - singer, songwriter & performer. His live shows are like listening to his cd’s.
    MANY hits. His 1st hits were “Don’t Mean Nothing” & “Endless Summer Nights”
    He’s written songs for the likes of *NSYNC, Barbra Streisand, Luther Vandross & Keith Urban

    Richard Marx is one of my favorite singers. He has many hits, including songs he wrote for other artists. He wrote or co-wrote some hit songs that Keith Urban had. If you want a rockin song of his, try “Satisfied.”
    At the time, he was married to Cynthia Rhodes, who is an actress, dancer, and singer. They were married for a long time, but divorced in 2014. He is remarried. He’s still singing, having released an album in 2020.

    So happy you include Richard Marx on your channel 🤗💕I absolutely love your reactions. Richard is anything but a one hit wonder. He's still active, actually on tour right now and worked with numerous great artists like Luther Vandross who he was friends with, Billy Joel, Nsync, Toni Braxton.... List goes on & on. Other great songs except for those of the 80s - silent scream, whatever we started, another one down, when you're gone, the way she loves me, now & forever, at the beginning, hazard. Thank you for everything you're doing, stay safe and healthy. Love you 💋

  • @frederickseltzerjr2170
    @frederickseltzerjr2170 2 роки тому +1

    One of his biggest hits of his career, it spent three weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart in 1989, finishing as the 11th biggest song of that year. At the time, he was married to Cynthia Rhodes, who was the female lead dancer from "Dirty Dancing" and this song was written for her as she was making a film in South Africa at that time. They have since divorced, he is now married to Daisy Fuentes

  • @senecaevans6156

    This has been one of my favourite songs since I was about 13, which by the way was like 25 years ago or something. My teenage self used to get goosebumps and cry hearing this 🤣🤣 Such an amazing, underrated song ❤

  • @kandicehalfacre2005
    @kandicehalfacre2005 2 роки тому +3

    I have been a huge Richard Marx fan since his first album. Of that 80s-90s time period I would recommend Don't Mean Nothing, Should've Known Better, and Now and Forever. He's written so so so many songs for other people as well. Vixen's Edge of a Broken Heart is a personal favorite.

  • @koalarm
    @koalarm 2 роки тому +8

    His albums are generally mostly rock but the ballads tend to be the bigger hits. Try Satisfied or Too late to say goodbye for something rockier from the 80s. He's still recording and touring. Try Hazard for something different, or Keep coming back.

  • @MrNitro071

  • @mcina001

    If you specifically want to hear Richard’s vocal prowess, I think his greatest power ballad showcase is “Chains Around My Heart.” It was a lesser-known single, but his vocals on that one are out of this world.

    1989 I believe. So just 80s. Remember it being in the UK charts for ages! Hazard was decent too. Now and forever is probably my fave though. Didn't know he was married to Cynthia Rhodes who was Penny in dirty dancing!

    He is one of my favorites. I actually saw him in concert last year. He was still amazing after 37 years! His first album came out in 88’ this song is about his first wife. He tells a story about it. “Hazard” is amazing! “Now and Forever” “ Endless Summer Nights” So many. He actually does Dance with my father because he wrote it.His wife was in Dirty Dancing ( the blonde that was pregnant) which is who the song was written about now he’s married to Daisy Fentez

    Right Here Waiting was literally the only slow-paced song on that particular album (Repeat Offender). He has no other, to my knowledge. He also has a duet with Donna Lewis for the animated film Anastasia. That's worth checking out.

  • @MarkyMarc89
    @MarkyMarc89 10 місяців тому

    This was the very first song I remember listening to as it was released the year I was born (1989). It was a hit and was also one of my mom’s favorite songs.

  • @Stoffinator
    @Stoffinator 2 роки тому

    He is still around today. Does his own albums and writes/produces for many artists. This song he wrote for his wife at the time he was touring and barely got to see here. Was a love letter to her. He however didn't want to publish it. But she told him he would be crazy if he did not. So he did on his next album; Repeat Offender. It became his signature song.

    14 top 10 hits....he wrote songs for almost everyone...including NSYNC (This I promise you)...Kenny Rodgers...John Farnham...Cliff Richard...list goes on. He was discovered by the great Lionel Ritchie and was a back up singer for him at 18 years old. He sang "All night...all night" on All night long Lionel Ritchie...lol. he had so many hits....incredible song writer and in his own right a star of the 80"s and 90's. He even gave Keith Urban a No 1 hit. Check out some of his other songs...he's amazing...🎉

    🙂❤ Sweet reaction. I was in high school when this song came out in June of 1989. So beautiful and simple. And very different from all the over the top '80s songs that were out there. Felt like this song was everywhere in 1989.

    @benmason9755 2 роки тому

    Richard marx is basically the KING of sappy 80s soft rock love songs, but I mean this in THE BEST WAY possible. You're right about his voice, of course, it is a magnificently distinctive powerhouse. Angelia is his very best, I think, and a FANTASTIC example of him letting rip a bit more, but there's also Children of the Night, Hazard, Hold Onto the Nights, Over My Head and Should've Known Better. He also did a PHENOMENAL cover of the Rolling Stones' Wild Horses.

    There are a bunch of great songs listed in the comments already, so I’m going to tell you one of my favourites that is not well known. It’s a collaboration with Fee Waybill, and shows a different side of him. It’s called “Remember Manhattan.”
    His wife’s name was Cynthia Rhodes. She was in his “Don’t Mean Nothing” video, and played Penny in the movie “Dirty Dancing.” She is a trained dancer. They’ve since divorced, and he’s now married to Daisy Fuentes.
    He’s written tons of hit songs for other artists.

    I heard Richard say he wrote this song for Barbra Streisand. He sent her the tape and she called back and said she loved the melody, but would need to change the lyrics. He asked why and she said "because I'm not going to be right here waiting on anybody."

    One hit wonder? I'm shocked and appalled for you. Lol. Richard Marx is one of the most prolific singer/song writer/composers of the 80s, 90s, and 2000s. He has released 12 studio albums, been nominated for 22 Grammy and Billboard awards and won a Grammy in 2004. He is still performing and writing songs today. Not just for himself but for so many other artists. For instance the song THIS I PROMISE YOU by N'Sync that you did on your channel...written by Richard Marx...SUDDENLY by Toni Braxton...Richard Marx...TO WHERE YOU ARE by Josh Groban...that's right...written by Richard Marx. He has written for so many artists. Richard Marx dominated pop radio during the late Eighties and early Nineties, sending his first seven singles including this song, the pinnacle of all love ballads, "Right Here Waiting”, to the Top 5 of the Billboard charts...the only male artist in history to have EVER done that. Years before he released his debut album, though, paid the bills as a songwriter for stars like Kenny Rogers, who took two of Marx’s songs to Number One in 1984. He was only 19 years old at the time. Between 87 and 94 he had 14 top 20 hits and 3 number ones and he's sold 30 million albums worldwide. And he's written 14 number one songs for himself and others over 4 decades. He holds a special place in my heart since me and my wife's song was this song, it was the first song we ever danced to, and we had our first kiss during a Richard Marx concert....so of course this was also our wedding song. Plus his music just epitomized the 80's for me. So...ONE HIT WONDER?....FOR SHAME ANTON!!! Definitely do more of his stuff. I put him and Hanson in the same category...genius musicians that don't get enough credit.

  • @GranpaMike
    @GranpaMike 2 роки тому +1

    Great pick, Marx had a bunch of gorgeous songs. Terrific vocalist. His song "HAZARD" is exceptional (as is the official video), but my favorite would have to be "ENDLESS SUMMER NIGHTS" ua-cam.com/video/1NvsMKYgCsM/v-deo.html . The first time I saw the video for it I did a double-take on the female actress in it. She's a dead ringer for a lady I almost married back in the mid-80s. Like the song and video, she was pretty special, too. If you ever check it out, Anton, pay attention to what's going on with the saxophone and bass. Beautiful stuff. The music is so rich that it's easy to lose focus on the lyrics, but try not to because the lyrics are amazing.
