- LYRICS:
Someone just like me - Runnin' into someone just like you
An accidental touch - Turned into a gentle kiss or two
Love has finally come - Somehow found my someone
Close to you - that's how I feel
When the world's asleep - and we're sharin' sweet
Solitude, almost gave up - Trying to find someone else to love
Long walks, soft talk - Still can't believe it, what were the odds of
Someone just like me - Runnin' into someone just like you
An accidental touch - Turned into a gentle kiss or two
Love has finally come - Somehow found my someone
Was that me? - Not long ago - No one here to care
No one's dreams to share You agree - nights can be rough
When you can't find someone else to love
Long walks, soft talk - Hard to believe it, what were the odds of
Someone just like me - Runnin' into someone just like you
An accidental touch - Turned into a gentle kiss or two
Love has finally come - Somehow found my someone
You and me - all alone - That's my favorite time of night
Nothing for us to do - But find new ways to hold each other tight
Imagine - Someone just like me - Runnin' into someone just like you
An accidental touch - Turned into a gentle kiss or two
Love has finally come - What were the odds of
Someone just like me - Runnin' into someone just like you
An accidental touch - Turned into a gentle kiss or two
Love has finally come - What were the odds of
Someone just like me - Runnin' into someone just like you
An accidental touch - Turned into a gentle kiss or two
Love has finally come - Somehow found my someone.........
Love him this song is my alarm I wake up to. Absolutely beautiful.
ANN KOVACS I've heard this song bak when I was like 10 in 1995 from an older head now I'm here in 2018 lol

You have good taste 🎉
2024 still going I'm obsessed ❤
Me
2024 and beyond. 🍁🧡🍁
If you weren't around in the 80's to experience this kind of music, you simply missed it
Amen
Im gen z and i love 80s music so much😢 music nowadays sucks for the most part. Wish i was a teenager in 1980s instead of 2010s and 2020s
110% agreed
I really miss the music of the 80's especially El DeBarge, Jacksons, Atlantic Star, Cherelle, and WAM.. Bring the groove music back, someone plz.
It’ll come back soon let the stupid new generation singer pass
Thank God for you tube!
Wish granted: Silk Sonic 💪🏽
I knooooowwwww🥲
@@ianvlnva And Lady Wray
This should have been a number one hit.
I always thought so. But somehow, people prefered Bananarama... A matter of taste and heart
Right!! I just don't understand
The DeBarge group was mostly never very popular with young white people who were the main record buyers. It was always either mostly black listeners and older white people that liked them, but never the main MTV audience, and that had continued into El’s solo career. “Rhythm Of The Night” was the DeBarge group’s only music video and that is a big part of why that demographic never really connected with the DeBarge group. Also, El was too tied to his siblings in the minds of most people and both of his previous singles “Who’s Johnny” and “Love Always” pretty much killed any chance of El reaching a broader audience solo from the start.
@@RocStarr913 Also latinos from the 80s
They never played this on our stations. I would have bought it!
El Debarge's life has been a hell of a rollercoaster. In this song he was touched by God. I've played it a million times. Thank you El. God bless you.
Ulul
Their father was a monster the way he treated them abused them n all kinds of ways
I think this has to be my favorite of his.
@@healing4yapets RIGHT!!! Blame the White father...The White father forced them ALL to do drugs, crimes and go to jail...What is YOUR excuse? White boss, White society, White raycizm, White privilege?
I just discovered this song about three weeks ago when someone was reminiscing about old school jams. I just heard a snippet and it was on. Oh my God! Tears…..In love all over again! @ 50 years old! Sang baby!💜💜🔥💜😍😍😍
This song never received the acclaim it should have gotten.
Totally agree I just heard song recently El Debarge voice is just unique and superb .
Such is the fate of many great songs that came out in the 1980s. If this song came out in the late 1990s - superhit 10 X over for sure !
That's a lie ,this song steady was playing on the radio
Agreed!!! All time favorite of mine
I agree.This has got to be one of the most beautiful love songs ever written! I can listen to this one constantly! What a shame that this wonderful singer and his family never got the recognition and staying power they deserved! Their music is REAL MUSIC,not the terrible crap thats out there today. I loved his voice,and its so sad that he just got arrested,again, for drug possession,and a slew of other things in his car. 60 years old and a life destroyed by drugs,and probably the loss of FAME! My heart breaks for him,another very talented lost soul.😪💔❤
One of the greatest musicians and songwriters of our time. Underrated AF. This man DESERVES his flowers. ❤💯
Underrated by who? People that were not around in the 80's or know nothing about him?
Brasil aqui fala comigo
@@roundtown1769Brasil aqui qual seu nome
I still listening this song ini 2024
Should have been a number 1 hit! His music just touches your soul, along with Love Always and Somebody Loves You. Never tire of listening to his voice.
R dry in 😅😮😢😮
i love his hair, his fresh looks, his innocence, the way he moves, the voice and the song
He's still so handsome at 60. Touring too!
A HIT IN 2024 ❤ 😊
Anyone else came looking for this song after hearing Keke Palmer singing it on her way home with her new bundle of joy?
😂
This was my favorite jam in the 80's-what a voice and talent-Makes me want to fall in love over again-sorry but the 80's was the best music decade ever.
Yes it was
Yes!!! I totally agree with you
@malusi ntsele The 90s don't have nothing on the 80s! Only thing the 90s had was good ass Talk Shows! And Good Black Sitcoms!
Wrong. The 60's through 80s were.
The 80s sound of music and singers are gone, but will never be forgotten.
Who’s sharing this lovely song with me in this difficult times 😍😍🤗🤗, thank you el debarge for this beautiful song 🙏🏻🙏🏻.
🙃👏🙏🎼🔥
@@Irina-oh6rs thank you!!
@@ramphissantana4311 from all my heart😍
@@Irina-oh6rs How do I find you in instagram or Facebook Irina? Well if You can of course 😅😅😄.
@@ramphissantana4311Excuse me, please..but i don't use facebook not instagram🙃🙏
Here in 2024
I don't know why he is not considered one of the greats.
Because a lot of what he and his family group were famous were for singles that were too of the moment.
Don’t know what community your from, what demograph but El has always been a musical genius over here. As a musician myself we’ve always recognized his talent of song, songwriting, composing and musicianship
@@I_be_eI’m white. Arguably my community was what El’s solo music was really aiming at the most during this time. Motown likely saw him as their Whitney Houston of sorts at the time. Was DeBarge talented, yes, but Motown made El so middle of the road during this time because of the crossover success of “Rhythm Of The Night” and “Who’s Johnny.” They had him record songs by songwriters-for-hire and unfortunately, the fickle younger audience just moved on to other performers that ended up being more popular.
2023 this song still touches the heart ❤️ ❤ thank you
Beautiful song, gosh he is pretty
Very
The result of the mix is really beautiful... but what’s happening right now is the clash of coloured and whites- it’s making the world ugly.
@@ylarakuh2702 El is mix on his dad side he's canadian german and french and irish and English and on his mom side he's black and natalie american indian so El is canadian german french irish and English and black and native american indian a beautiful mix👍
He sure is!!!!! Can't wait to see him in concert.
Yes he is, I use stay up plenty of night thinking if him, Prince, and Michael Jackson!! Pretty boy trilogy!!
🖤🖤🖤
I don't think I can ever get enough of this man!!!
Me neither ❤
💕💎
Same!!
I'm addicted to El.😍💗 I can't get enough of Him!!
Yes been in love with him since the 80's!!
😻💞
I love love him so much I pray those demon's stay away we have lost to many masters of good music. 😚😚😚😚😚😚
i feel the same way there entire family
Around the time of the recording of the self-titled solo debut album is actually when El said his drug addiction started. He said he just picked up a crack pipe around that time one day, tried it, and instantly became addicted.
Perfect song for meeting a person that has common interests. That's how El made his music the soundtrack of my life!
ESTA CANCION DEVOLVIO A MI VIDA.MUCHOS RECUERDOS DE LOS SERES QUE ME ACOMPAÑARON.MI VIDA EN ESTE PAIS ELDRA DEBARGE
TU ERES EL NUMERO.1 FOREVER.😎😍🤩🤗🙋♀️🙋♂️☝️👆👌🤘🕶🧢🎓
This is my life rn ❤️
9999
Love El's voice, it is heavenly.
I love you El! May the Lord Jesus Christ bless you to richly. 😍
This song brings tears to my eyes all the time and every time I play it. If I close my eyes, I can imagine him singing this song to me. It is good to feel love in that way, and it makes me feel so good. Love you El!💚💚
El Debarge is one of the nicest guy, next to Denzel Washington I've ever met
You should here me play it on sax!
How about that growl he put's in there! That's when you know how to deliver a song. It's funny how the 80s El was always behind a mic dancing, I never knew he was so accomplished on a keyboard until hus latest comeback. No wonder he was a great writer. Love this dude! 💕
Michelle Summer how did you slip by me beautiful eye candy you know you are so gorgeous to me your fine self 😍😍😍😍. What's your number gorgeous lol.
During 1986-'86, I was a freshman in college listening to this beautiful song on the radio.
Masterpiece. Jay Graydon behind the keys.... Absolutely perfect !! Never again have I heard this stuff
Armelle D. The fact that “Someone” underperformed on all the singles charts probably made Motown feel that Jay Graydon’s sound had become by then too out of style for all the contemporary radio formats. It’s a shame. I really liked this single and I still do to this day. It’s my favorite of El’s solo singles.
HE IS SO HANDSOME I LOVE HIS VOICE
Its amazing because he's still handsome even now that he's 60 yr old.
@@sucrose7483 And still touring. He'll be in my town next month. Yep... He's blowing up again!
This is my first time hearing this song I Love it ❤️❤️
Whaaaaaaat!!??
@@lavictorsermons6632 I'm in love with this song 😏
Keke Palmer bought me here. Never heard this before. Thanks Keke!! 3/23.
Wow very nice voice song👍👌🏽👌👍🥰
Ke Ke Palmer sent me here! Never heard this song until now. I love this flow!
Same! and I love me some El, I guess I missed this one. I knew I heard El's voice in background 😊
El and Bobby Debarge are my Top Singing Mentors.
David Hall So sad they both became drug addicts. They were both so ridiculously talented.
@@RocStarr913 That's true - so sad. People are a product of their surroundings/ environment. I wonder if God was trying to scourge them for being disobedient to Him. God scourges those whom He Loves. I guess I won't know until I go back to Heaven. Long story short- yes I've been there. Some people think I'm crazy- but they will think otherwise when they experience the 2nd death. They will say He was right- He didn't lie about being elect of the Most High God.
So true. The DeBarge family was really messed up. It was particularly sad to have that happen to El, because he seemed to try the hardest out of all of them to stay clean and responsible, even as the DeBarge group were at the peak of their popularity.
Sometimes its hard to tell the difference between Bobby's and El's voice. One thing for sure is that Bobby's singing voice is stronger- His vocal range is higher. I saw Bobby in concert- that's why I know.
That’s family genes for you. It’s been said that when El recorded “I Like It”, the producer of the song, Iris Gordy, had to really goad him into singing in a falsetto range in that last section of the song recording because El was actually too afraid he’d sound just like Bobby.
The debarge family's music is timeless the music is always on point
He is a beautiful genius!
Not bragging: I'm a reputed musical genius. Not self proclaimed. No lie- no ego here.
Yes- El Debarge is considered a musical genius in my book.
A genius is one who has Extraordinary Creative Ability.
He's gifted songwriting, producing creativity may God continue to bless you keep praising his name !
SO HANDSOME SO BEAUTIFUL.....THATS ALL I CAN SAY...I COULD WATCH EL ALL DAY..LOL.....

*Such A Sweet Lovely Magical Innocent Song This Was. Timeless.*
I was a teenager and I use to wonder when I was gonna have a boyfriend......this song would make me feel hopeful........his high high notes is just gorgeous and flawless!!!!!!!
He look SO GOOD standing up there singing about sincere, true love.
Someone just like me
Runnin' into someone just like you
An accidental touch
Turned into a gentle kiss or two
Love has finally come
Somehow found my someone
Close to you, that's how I feel
When the world's asleep and we're sharin' sweet
Solitude, almost gave up
Trying to find someone else in love
Long walk, soft talk
Still can't believe it, what were the odds of
Someone just like me
Runnin' into someone just like you
An accidental touch
Turned into a gentle kiss or two
Love has finally come
Somehow found my someone
Was that me? Not long ago
No one here to care
No one's dreams to share
You agree, nights can be rough
When you can't find someone else in love
Long walk, soft talk
Hard to believe it, what were the odds of
Someone just like me
Runnin' into someone just like you
An accidental touch
Turned into a gentle kiss or two
Love has finally come
Somehow found my someone
You and me, all alone
That's my favorite time of night
Nothing for us to do
But finding ways to hold each other tight
Imagine
Someone just like me
Runnin' into someone just like you
An accidental touch
Turned into a gentle kiss or two
Love has finally come
Somehow found my someone
Thanks for these beautiful lyrics
Great song from a great album... ahhh 1986!
Totally agree! Love it!
Yesss
How was this song not number one?? Smooth…as…silk.
I imagine people felt that it sounded too similar to El’s past singles, both solo and with his siblings, and that sound had become passé by the point of this single.
wonderful song. 30 years and still a magnificente song and performance.
Keke made me search for and listen to this song for the first time. Anyone else?
Nobody can sing slow jams like the Debarge’s!!!
This is the most wonderful song I've ever heard
Beautiful song
I love Eldra & that DeBarge sound is so classically soothing. It teleports me to a simpler time ......
Check out his song " The Other side". Makes my heart melt
I'm amazed that El has the same beautiful voice today as yesterday, love this song, although he didn't get the props for it he should have!!
🙏I hope he can make his way back to the top. He’s so talented. 🙏💖
This song makes me want to skip down the street ala Mary Tyler Moore during the opening to her old 70's sitcom!! I love El's voice and his style of delivery !!! XOXOXO
# 5 ? #1 in my book. El DeBarge, the best !!!!!
Great song, can never get enough of any song from El ,Bobby,Bunny or Debarge. Just love them!
You and me- all alone - That's my favorite time of night
Nothing for us to do- but find new ways to hold each other tight
Imagine- Someone just like me- Running into someone just like
you."...
:0)
thanks
El is soooooo Smooooooooth!!
This is my favorite part of this song as well
Mines too
His free spirit and the keyboards at 2:43. Nice.
It’s September 2020 and I still bump this jam !
Sounds great in the car !
I agree! I play it over and over in my car and NEVER GET TIRED OF IT! This kind of wonderful song will never die! Excellent song and El Debarge,he was a great singer and so perfect for this one! I wish him well and to get rid of the "demons" that plague him.❤
He is singing that song with authority wow
El is candy to the eyes.💖💖💖💖
Shannon Cunningham
I concur 😃❤😃❤

I'm a straight Man- He is very handsome. Agree.
Charm, talent, looks, the Lord laid it on THICK!!!!
He and Smokey Robinson have two of the smoothest, easy to listen to voices ever.
The way El composes music is the reason he is my favorite music composer ever. He lets the melodies he sings guide where the bass guitar lands. That's unusual because most songs do it the opposite way where the melody follows the bass line. My favorite El Debarge songs are
1. Time Will Reveal
2. Broken Dreams
3. Somebody Loves You
4. All This Love
5. Someone
el is everything I love and more.I hope to see him one day.😍😍💖💖💋💋😘😘💙
Hannah Mathis that man could blow 🎤🎤
You've got a crush on him. No lie.
This song..magical. I can not stop listening..
I can't lie don't remember him nor the group back in the day with all thoses beautiful songs.
Robbie Neville wrote this masterpiece...El brought took it to the stratosphere...
Unbeleivable...speechless STILL.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'll always be in love with this man. He's so beautiful ❤
Golden voice...
He should have been wayyy bigger.👍
His voice is pure genius and his vocals sail to the heavens..God Bless him!
Still Love this- Still a Beautiful and Talented man. Seen him not too long ago. Looks even better and his voice is still the same.😍
Glad to hear that El is doing well. I was concerned about Him maintaining the quality of His singing voice. I just might collaborate with El before We get too old. I'm a singer as well. I saw the late Bobby Debarge in the early eighties. Bobby was with Switch back then.

1986....The 80s had some incredible music...Such mass appeal here...Big talent behind this CD, as good as Whitney's first...
This 1986 performance looks like it was on "Solid Gold"...
I love his voice and rhe way he makes me feel every time I hear this wonderful song

This album was certified by RIAA as gold in September, 1986, selling over 500,000 copies.[2]
Such a romantic song.

Voz e categoria ao cantar,
Super afinado somado a linda
Música top 20.
What an artist.
I love this song and back then there was live singing....you couldn't skate by on back tracks. That's how you knew who could sing and who the studio was carrying.
Wow! What a beautiful voice!
What an awesome blessing and to share his gift with the world!!!!!
Someone just like me running into someone just like you!!!💝.
Esta canción solo la tenía en mi mente por casi 20 años, pero hoy se m ocurrió q era la voz de debarge, acerté, estoy muy feliz, hermosa canción!!!
greatest musician alive !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
