- I OWN NOTHING
Tempted
Squeeze
Album: East Side Story released 1982
I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste
A flannel for my face
Pyjamas, a hairbrush
New shoes and a case
I said to my reflection
Lets get out of this place
Past the church and the steeple
The laundry on the hill
Billboards and the buildings
Memories of it still
Keep calling and calling
But forget it all
I know I will
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
Whats been going on
Now that you have gone
Theres no other
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
Im at the car park, the airport
The baggage carousel
The people keep on crowding
Im wishing I was well
I said its no occasion
Its no story I could tell
At my bedside empty pocket
A foot without a sock
Your body gets much closer
I fumble for the clock
Alarmed by the seduction
I wish that it would stop
I bought a novel, some perfume
A fortune all for you
But its not my conscience
That hates to be untrue
I asked of my reflection
Tell me what is there to do

This song never ceases to cheer me up. Whenever I feel depressed I play this song and immediately feel loads better.
Thanks uploader
It’s about cheating 🤷♀️
@@arienrhod4166 😂😂😂 wow never knew that
sameand i didnt hear it until i was 16 in 1996 but it is just that type song . catchy as hella and damned good lyrics wise and well just everything about it.
@@arienrhod4166 Does not matter. hey My girl at the time and I would pick on each other about it. it was 1886 when we first heard it and as teens we went crazy over it. thanks to her i have very great tauste in music. lol RIP Aliezia, 1980-1999
@@arienrhod4166 Yes About cheating but such great musicality and harmonies. One of my all time favs.
I am Fernando Martinez, and this ... is Emotion!
LMAOOO
Gta vice city Tommy vercetti King hahaha
I am Jonny Granville and this is emotional.
You are Fernando Martinez!
Lol
Can't believe this wasn't a bigger hit.
Vice City baby. Responsible for half my music taste.
Ha same 😂😂
Peter Timowreef same
Peter Timowreef first-time I heard too cool though
Peter Timowreef same :D
Kinda sad actually if thats true
This was the only instance I've heard the word "flannel" used to describe a washcloth
That's what they call it in the UK. :)
That's what it is called in other countries, where they are really made out of flannel.
Proper Tory stuff that
'washcloth' sounds comedic.
@@geraldcollins7103 wtf are you talking about? Hahaha
How the heck does a song pop in your mind that you may have heard once or twice decades ago I suppose that means it's a special song. Music equals love and love equals peace let us love each other because we're not tempted other fruit of another.
😌
Yes!! I felt this too
@@RockStar_Love its a great feeling ✨
@@RockStar_Love your YT name. Just like the people responsible for me even knowing this song. thank you for GTA: Vice City, RockstarGames
This song has that rare quality
I'm here because I love these musicians! Paul Carrack's voice gives me visceral pleasure.
2024 and this is still a banger ❤❤
this song is about Adam and Eve. Tempted by the fruit of another. 🍎 just like the iPhone logo the Apple with the bite taken out of it.
Fantastic.. lovely chord changes.. fabulous variations in the arrangement..
Squeeze is an underrated band!
They weren't back in their day. FACTS.
I was a bit confused when I first listened to this...I noticed that there are some slight nuances compared to the original version, which this is not. Poked around a bit...found that this is actually NOT the version from 1982's East Side Story...rather this is technically Tempted (94)
Frankly, I like this version a lot better.
That was my thought too - guitar is much more vocal. This version is better I think
Agree, this is the edit my local station plays
@@johnmclaughlin3217 I think I know quite a lot about music but I honestly thought I was crazy when it came to this song. The CD I have features the original version and when I'd hear this version on the radio I'd think I was really crazy. No one mentioned it was a different version. Until I just saw your comments, I'd forgotten about it. Now, my family would still say I AM crazy but this explains a lot about the song. Thank you for mentioning it. I should have realized when I's see it called Tempted '94. Duh!
Same I was surprised, I love the other version but this version is soooo good!!!!
Pity Spotify hasn't got this re-release listed (or doesn't appear to).
So it's 1982. My good friend did the overnight at local FM station, we'd hang out all night, party, and make cassette tapes of the best and latest thru their system.
One night/morning I have to walk home a few miles and the last song I heard in my brandy new little Walkman was this song. Went inside my house to phone ringing from a tearful gf who admitted the night before she had seen and slept with an old friend. I hadda say it.
"Tempted?"
(sob) "...yes"
"Perfect" click!
Sorry, Pam. This event and the story of it have entertained many throughout my career. Thanks!
I'm not a singer really, but I have finished a bottle of vodka in my hotelroom in a small city in Portugal and the cleaning ladies let me be. They just laugh when I hit that high notes. This is perfect to shout in bed in the morning, with sunglasses on! I recommend everybody to do it.
I be hitting the high note too.
I play guitar but I’m definitely not a singer. Two very good reasons why I had to move to a place in the woods with no close neighbors 😆.
Songs like this, ya just gotta belt um out, even at 2 or 3am. Very therapeutic 🤗
You sound a right laugh! 😊
I Love These United States.
Paul Carrack is a multi talented brotha. Ty for posting
Vocals, Lyrics and Melody...pure pop bliss
Yep
Yep and no one overplays, either! It's all to serve the song and serve it well! That's how it should be.
I'm 84 and I love this music, son!
Well, 7 years have past and i hope you are still jamming out 😀
Oof. This hurts seeing 7 years later knowing that theres a big possibility he could be dead
@@bloodmaged fr
Guys he's dead now R.I.P.
I hope he’s still alive 🙁
Glad to know GTA brought all you GROMS here. All these tracks are classics we all grew up to . If it were not for a video game you would not appreciate this music. Pavlov explained it best with a description called a conditioned response. Every time you hear these tracks now, it brings back good times in your Hippocampus and frontal cortex. Basically nostagia for us regular folks. Now its your turn to bounce these tracks with beats and bring them back to LIFE> Turn up the radio GTA remix
GTA: Vice City was ( in my Opinion ) Tied for Best GTA game of all time, right alongside GTA: San Andreas. The Heavily 80's influenced soundtrack has 50% of the Reason why I Have such a high regard for that game. I was Born in the early 90's, therefore didn't get to hear them & Bask in the 80's lifestyle with them 😓. Glad to still be kinda young tho Hahaha..point is, us 90's Millennials had that masterpiece of a game. That's our Nostalgia. 😁😁😁
I agree I’m greatful for this Gem ! The lyrics are crucial 💙
when this song comes on, you know that 'keep on loving you' is next in line on emotion 98.3 in gta vice city. such good ol' times
"Catch Falling Peeps"
This is for sure my karaoke song !!! Anyone else is agree? :D
me
I SOOOO totally agree😀
My song since 2009
I agree, it will be mine too!
Me too!
It's agreed that if you are here it's not by mistake, you now belong to the collective group that enjoys this song. Congratulations on your good taste.
Great Song :)
A Classic for all time...a "Perfect Piece of Music" Paul Carrack, what a beautiful soulful vocal...Squeeze a forever fave!
2024 and this is still one of my favorite songs EVER!!! 🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤
I got to see them last night in Los Angeles for the first time!! They were so GREAT!! I LOVE THIS SONG!!
Paul Carrack has such an amazing voice.
STILL, too!
gta vice city :3
Lucky pyramid Ikr
Same here. I always liked this song though I never really knew what the meaning of it is. This is the first time I am actually seeing the lyrics, lol.
That "novel, perfume" verse is an AWESOME performance by Carrack.
My wife and I going to see squeeze - glen and Chris in november. We can,t wait. They are great.
Woo! This song brought back old buried memories when I was super young. This song was usually playing every time my Mom had to tend to the garden and I remember her humming this song while I held a whicker basket to help my Mom pick some radishes. That was about 30 years ago.
GTA Vice City !♡!♡!♡!♡ All time favorite GTA & amazing soundtrack; after all i am an 80's baby♡
Memories of 1981 Brought me here :)
It's always fascinated me, by how Every new decade, it's like a Lightswitch on how Music style is suddenly Changed.
50's, 60's, 70's, 80's and then the 90's Grunge but somehow the music has Faded away like an old pair of Jeans.
I wish we could go back to the 50's and Start ALL OVER Again!!!
God does work in mysterious ways 🌻🌻 K & R 2021
LOVE THIS VERSION!!!! Thank you for posting.
Crazy to see how people leave this earth, but their music lives on forever
This version is so damn good!
Sir Rodney I agree. Both versions are great tho
Yes
I'm here because Squeeze is/was a fantastic group of musicians and songwriters.
Paul Carrack has a amazing voice 😍
I like!!! y mucho mas cuando la cantaba Cerati en la van de la gira "Doble Vida" de Soda Stereo en Lima a finales de los 80s
Halina Conace seeee
2020 baby.🤞🏾💫
Brilliant group, brilliant song.
THANK YOU!!!! I have been searching for this version FOREVER!!! I love this version I've only ever heard it on the radio! thank u!!!
Who's covering this song then? I'm pretty sure this is squeeze doing a radio edit version.
I was wrong. I was sure this was someone doing karaoke to a Squeeze track---but Wikipedia says: "In 1993, Squeeze remixed and overdubbed the original recording to create a 'new' version of the song for the soundtrack to the film Reality Bites. This version received some radio airplay and was dubbed 'Tempted '94'." I prefer the original :)
I remember living my ex and falling in love with another lady who was married and this was all i could listen to or think of. I left that ex and she left her husband. 6 years and 2 kids later and i I couldn't be happier
Deep. This song has always screamed 80s for me. Despite not having the wompy basslines and heavy synth layers of typical 80s new wave, this song carries that ease of a much purer, easier time.
Yeah, thats not something to be proud of, you're a piece of crap, cheaters gonna cheat.
@@protogenius technically he didn't say he cheated. Human emotions are incredibly complex and intricated and it is not uncommon to be in a relationship with someone and notice that someone still sparks your heart a bit. It's just how you choose to act on those emotions that makes you a piece of shit or not
@@johnmclaughlin3217 You know exactly what he meant, and are crassly trying to pretend otherwise. To play ignorance when it's so obvious leaves you in the same boat as our cheating friend here, because now you're trying to downplay the infidelity, and gaslight anyone who would question it, shame on you.
@@protogenius You must have been cheated on... or left for another. 😔
This is a stone cold classic. I hear some Steely Dan in this one.
This is a cover. That is why you hear Steely Dan in it. It is horrible.
It's not a cover, just a different studio version than the one we're used to.
Its not a cover lol
@@limeginger your music knowledge is what's horrible.
Dan is marvelous.....so is squeeze and they're different......
The hold music from a potential employer brought me here. Didn’t get the job but DAMN this song is good enough to make up for it.
"I OWN NOTHING" damn man ... not even a carbord box? or cloths? what about your dignity?
This version blows my hair back. 5x better than the original. Listen to the difference in the snare.
I just did. I'm torn between the two but leaning toward this one. Everything is really better about this one. The guitar work; the drums; their voices - it's really the one I'm most familiar with - I just can't believe that at age 71, I'm just finding out that there really were two versions of it. I honestly thought I was a very confused lady. Of course, now that I know there are two versions, I'm still confused, just not about this song!
chef d oeuvre , this is their best song , paul have such a beautiful voice
Tom Petty & Heartbreakers opening Squeeze in 19-um-hum was a life changer. NY, NY hearts You!
i ❤ this version. TY uploader..
I found it Jarring that this is an alternate version. I wasn't even aware that such a thing existed. Thank you.

I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste
A flannel for my face
Pajamas, a hairbrush
New shoes and a case
I said to my reflection
"Let's get out of this place"
Passed the church and the steeple
The laundry on the hill
Billboards and the buildings
Memories of it still
Keep calling and calling
But forget it all, I know I will
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
What's been going on
Now that you have gone
There's no other
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
I'm at the car park, the airport
The baggage carousel
(The people keep on grindin')
Ain't wishing I was well
I said it's no occasion
(It's no story I could tell)
At my bedside empty pocket
A foot without a sock
Your body gets much closer
I fumble for the clock
Alarmed by the seduction
I wish that it would stop
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
What's been going on
Now that you have gone
There's no other
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
I bought a novel, some perfume
A fortune all for you
But it's not my conscience
That hates to be untrue
I asked of my reflection
Tell me what is there to do?
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered

Now that you have gone
There's no other
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered🎤🎶
Yay they're here in NYC. Concert on September 26th.
EXCELLENT SONG
I'm singing along to this tune loud whilst having a bath.. Thanks for uploading the lyrics 😁
2022 cheers for you and tears for you
Great song, though this is clearly an alternate take, it still sounds great.
Such a cool song. Heard it for first time, thought it was Bad Company.
I’m not crazy - there’s 2 versions of this song. And I like this version so much better, but it’s not on Spotify. You can tell because in the popular version, during the intro, the main singer says “I bought a toothbrush” around 0:06 - like he’s warming up or something. In my opinion, THIS is the better version.
It sounds like it might be live.

This isn't the "East Side Story" version. I think it's the remake from the "Spot the Difference" CD. Still good. Thanks for the upload!
I'm old remember watching this on MTV in 1981
No, it is Squeeze, with Paul Carrack on lead. Just a different recording than the one we're used to hearing on the radio.
Happy Birthday!! Have a good One!!
I'm here because I enjoy this song.
Sebastien Vieh Paul carrick on vocals, this and how long by ace, ideal free singing lessons

I've had this song on my mind all morning... I love Squeeze...

Glenn Tilbrook and Chris Difford, the Lennon and McCartney of New Wave!
Is this a cover? Or an edit? I’ve always noticed it’s a little different than the definitive version of “Tempted”
Vice City, best gta soundtrack all-time.
Good song to listen to when you wake up ....or anytime really.top song .
Having listened to the radio many years ago brought me here. 😒
I lived this song less than 2 years ago. She was so beautiful and still is
Squeeze write great lyrics man!
