@princex2702 That is so true. I was thinking about him this morning. I saw Sad Cafe (his first band) at Oxford Apollo many years ago. Paul Carrack was upset when he passed away, another amazing voice of pure silk.
I am a huge Paul Carrack fan. That's why when I tell you I keep coming back to listen to this song over and over, this particular live performance, it tells you how good Paul Young is. I thought the single was untouchable, but I think I like this live version even better. Just an incredible band and their first four albums are four of my favorite all-time.
Such a clean, crisp, clear vocal performance here by Paul Young. No enhancements, no post-production effects. Just a powerfully talented singer backed by supremely talented musicians. RIP Mr. Young.
The Mechanics were very blessed to have the vocal talents of both Paul Young and Paul Carrack on the same bill . Paul Young wss such an asset, so creative and able to fill in wherever the need presented. His work was such a blessing to all of us, starting with Sad Cafe and even before, with various musical endeavors.He is greatly missed. RIP !
I keep commenting, but this is so amazing , brilliant Paul Young vocals and fantastic performance from the band itself , just stunning , can't believe so few views .. ?
Fantastic Paul young there isn't anyone around now with his brilliant vocals nobody could match him when he was in his pomp and at the top and there sure isn't anyone around now to come any near to his talent stay safe youngy RIP
Mike Rutherford's 'Mechanics' has been a special pop band. Rutherford is genius in music. This Paul Young, for me one of the best pop-music singer ever.
I agree with you about MR. He produced such beautiful effects with Genesis and with his later associations, never sought to dazzle with showy technique, just thought of the listener first. A man for harmony.
He was a superstar singer in a band that also had the 2nd best singer around - carrack . There was apparently no jealousy between them , and thy were good friends , both superstars ..
Love this song such amazing vocals but also the musicianship here is incredible. The drum beat, bass and the female background vocals in particular are so damn good, and really complement Mr Young
Great song, great singer, great loss. :( Paul Young was a comet that blazed a trail across the musical sky through the late seventies, eighties and into 2000. We even had the chance to know his music ten years after he died. A light that bright was never going to burn for long. Sometimes I wish he had burned a little less brightly and a bit longer.
+Yvette Moore I like your words about paul .he was an inspiration to his generation ,as he was part of my generation .one of the finest singers we shall ever have seen .his heart still beats to me with his music ., though not here ,never forgotten
Hi Yvette, I notice what a big Paul Young and Sad Cafe fan you are. Me too! Our paths no doubt crossed at the cafe and the mechanics gigs over the years. I met Paul a few times after gigs at the Apollo around 1980. I was only 18 yet he always had time to talk to me and my friends. As good as he is on this vid I think you can see he wasn't well. I'm 54 now and still miss him. Gary.
Gary Cannon hi Gary , can you expand on that please , I thought he looked OK ? In the 1999 videos looked a bit ill , but he re I thought he looked grea t !!
From all those years ago... the words that set me on my path, and into the Live House of Blues. "Mea Culpa" is my destiny. Always, etc. with love through hell 🩸🔥
They all are and Paul Young was. Paul Carrick is still amazing and improved even more over the yrs. He needs to be in the Hall of Fame. He can sing and play and write just about anything. He also wrote for the Eagles and others. They all got better and better over the yrs .
This is when they where in there prime great musicians mike had the two best singers in the business both pauls where great great live band Paul young new how to get the crowd going all talented great vocals rip Paul sad loss always be remembered 👍
What's going on inside your heart ❤️ I'll never stop listening this song from Mike and the mechanics his voice and performance is from another world..RIP Paul young .
Love this , love what I've heard from chronicles , cN anyone advise where all the other brilliant up takes of m and m have disappeared to. Is It copyright ?
Yes, aren't they? And just because nobody mentioned him here (raving on others present on stage) - on the second guitar, looking like young James May, here comes fantastic guitarist Tim Renwick (he has also played with Al Stewart, Pink Floyd together and individual members, Bowie, Clapton, Alton John and more).
Paul Young was a extremely talented singer either a soft caressing voice , or a powerful clear voice, much charism, in my top 3 rock singers ever, Paul is missed !
DEP PAULO YOUNG , grande vocalista y grande músico , gracias por todo tu trabajo QUE nos diste a todo el mundo , PAULO , te quedaste para siempre en nuestros Corazones.
Man, this House of Blues concert was one to remember. This is among the best vocals I have heard from Mike etc. and I love Paul Carrack! Great lead from Mike!
Paul Youngs voice was magical
Роджер Хадсон ,я понимаю и надеюсь вы меня поймете
Mike and the Mechanics will never be the same without Pauls powerful, magical and unattainable voice 😢 now it‘s been nearly 24 years he passed away
Indeed
@princex2702 That is so true. I was thinking about him this morning. I saw Sad Cafe (his first band) at Oxford Apollo many years ago. Paul Carrack was upset when he passed away, another amazing voice of pure silk.
Paul is sadly missed 😢😢
Rutherford certainly had a knack of spotting talent . Young and carrick were stunning. Pauls voice here is on a different planet
Yes, you are so righ!!
Fantastic Paul young
Paul Young was a very under-rated vocalist. Died too soon.
You don’t know what you’ve lost until it’s gone
I agree 100% to have Paul You g & Paul Carrick what a combo.....sadly Paul Young passed away way too soon....
*Paul Carrack
Hairs on back of neck time!!, absolutely fantastic song, lyrics, and the the top front man of all time ....period!!
So true. What a voice.
Incredible performance all round. Paul's voice here is simply amazing.
The Mechanics ain't the same without the two Pauls.
Munich 1999 was pure magic. I will always remember this special evening.

Just gets better every time
I seriously could listen to this on an hour loop All FDAY LONG

Paul Young was the Power Voice of the Group, I wish he would have partied a bit less and was still here for us to see and hear live.
