I wish this was a full song. Jeffrey Osborne did a wonderful job. Along with the 1990s "Faces of the Heart" instrumental theme song for General Hospital, I think this Loving theme song is the best one made for television.
watched Loving growing. I was raised by abc soaps. This theme song popped into my and I couldn’t stop singing the last part. I just needed to hear it. Jeffrey Osborne.
I was 8 in 1995, so I didn't even hear about Loving until years later haha. My "home from school" guilty pleasure was the soap opera Passions! That being said, I'm having a blast watching episodes of Loving and clips from the show on UA-cam now! 😀
Find memories of hearing this theme song when I was in Kindergarten (1994-95) and during nap time the teacher used to turn “Loving” on and I’ll try my best to see what was going on. Of course I didn’t know a hill of beans on the show but I always liked the theme a lot!
I remember this theme debuted on Valentines Day 1992. I was in my dorm room at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale. Can't believe how a quarter century has come and gone!
One TV critic said this was the best opening for a soap at the time. I often thought the graphics were like watered-down soft porn. LOL Definitely in the top 10 of lyrical soap opera theme songs.
I have to give it to ABC for hiring talented musical celebrities to sing/record theme songs for their tv shows. My favorite being the theme song for Bruce Willis and Cybill Sheppard's "Moonlighting" by Al Jarreau. To this day it's still one of my favorite songs. The theme song from "Loving" sung by Jeffrey Osborne is of course another great theme song as well. The soap "Loving" was one of my favorite ABC daytime soaps. I miss it.
I remember going on a School field trip with Pauline Jones Elementary School and i saw the 1992 Loving closing credits at Sears at Cross Creek Mall (which was recently shut down in 2020 or 2021) and this is the 30th anniversary of the Osbourne Loving theme song today.
Love the theme song even though Loving did not aired in Hawaii!!! I watched episodes when I lived in the mainland and my favorite couple Ally and Casey!
I remember Jeffrey Osborne voice singing the opening theme to the ABC Soap LOVING his voice is so sexy Look into my eyes I need a little Loving I miss that show I started watching Loving in 1992 til it was cancelled 1995 then came The City and it didn't last long maybe two years then came Port Chales the spinoff from GeneraL HospitaL !!!
This was the best soap opening with vocals; nothing compares to this theme song for a soap where there are lyrics being sung (just check out "Guiding Lights" last theme song and you'll know what I mean!)
I didn’t know it was a them song for soap opera. I used to watch this with my mom everyday first time i saw the theme Intro I thought it was a commercial
@Cyclops236 i'm not sure what the mix-up is, but Johnny Mathis' theme was used from maybe mid-1989 until approx. 1991, at which time a new, competely instrumental, theme was introduced..it was either 1992 or 1993 when the Jeffrey Osborne theme came into play (pun intended)..if you are referring to this particular video, it is, indeed, Jeffrey Osborne (probably at the height of his popularity)
Never been real big on soap operas,but this is the last one that I really had any interest in.That one that succeeded it,The City,tried to get into that for a couple weeks,but it just didnt make it for me.
no one wants to pay royalties..starting some time in 1978, they stopped erasing videos and started preserving these shows..now, they're probably sitting in a vault somewhere collecting dust......
I think had ABC moved Loving in between One Life To Live and General Hospital, it probably would have gone better and it wouldn't have seen the disaster it became, when they renamed it The City
no, there isn't - to the best of my knowledge..if there was, the folks at UA-cam would have busted me a long time ago...and i don't think crooners like Jeffrey Osborne still exists..from the mid-80s into the early 90s, a lot of classy songs along this vein came out..no comment on today's fare...
That's not Jeffrey Osborne it's Johnny Mathis and that's according to ValentinoRomaUno who posted Loving 1989 Short Opening With Johnny Mathis I heard the end of this theme song when I watched that video.
Johnny Mathis did the theme from 89 to 91..." As long as winds will my blow, my Loving will protect you. No matter where we are I'll be right here to give you Loving through it all"
To recap, Dan, Mathis was 3/27/89-2/1/91. The Lowe/Shapiro instrumental was 2/4/91 to 2/13/92, and Osborne was 2/14/92 through 11/10/95 (end). It's amazing how people don't go beyond UA-cam to learn about popular artists who were probably before their time anyway! :) BTW, on the subject, did you have any success in piecing together a Loving Mathis instrumental close?
You are obviously unfamiliar with Mathis, a pop singer with a 50+ year career on the American charts. This was Jeffrey Osborne. Valentino was incorrect, and in fact, I correct that person myself long ago. Just look up Osborne songs, and then Mathis tracks on UA-cam, and try to prove us wrong,
I wish this was a full song. Jeffrey Osborne did a wonderful job. Along with the 1990s "Faces of the Heart" instrumental theme song for General Hospital, I think this Loving theme song is the best one made for television.

I think this is the best Loving opening. Love it. I remember this when I was young.
Me too I definitely remember this.
That song bumps hard Jeffery Osborne did he thang on that ! i wish the song was longer
watched Loving growing. I was raised by abc soaps. This theme song popped into my and I couldn’t stop singing the last part. I just needed to hear it. Jeffrey Osborne.
keep bumping this like it's a charting song!!
I believe it got radio airplay in early 93
I still love this! I would sing this everyday it came on while my brother yelled "shut it". 😂
L-O-V-I-N-G.... always my favorite opening song ❤️❤️
Sing it again lol
@@MrJeffreysChannel 😂🤣
I was looking for this song haha blast from the past
😂😂😂
I can't stop listening to this
Me neither.
antoinette glover can't stop listening to it myself
personally, i wish there was a full-length version of this song.......
Damn it try
@@dannyhill8797 Me too.
Maaan! This was and still is a bop! Definitely one of the best tv theme songs ever!
I loved this opening. Definitely my favorite, I would sing it around my house after Loving went off for the day
I can't believe I still know this damn song as soon as it started!
The one thing we treasure now & forever we should treasure!!!! Is L- o- v- i- n- g
Thank you! I never could understand that line. Now I know.
Remembered watching bits of this show when I was seven in 92. The intro was just fantastic & beautiful and it reminds me how beautiful love was then.
😴😐😂😃😐😐😴😑😃😮😯😐😑
I was a teenager,when this show came out,miss all the old shows
My "home from school" guilty pleasure!
heula1 lol mine too!

I have OCD and to this day I sing this in my head when washing my face and brushing my teeth for perfect timing. 🤣🥰
I was getting married in 1992 and I wanted this for my wedding song. Don’t judge me
Did you get it as your wedding song? A 38 second long wedding song would have moved things along nicely.
What a great idea.
That would have been nice, especially if Jeffrey could have sung it.
I remember this theme debuted on Valentines Day 1992. I was in my dorm room at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale. Can't believe how a quarter century has come and gone!
Jeffrey Osborne with the vocals!
this song!! i watched LOVING cus of this song
12:30, 6abc Philadelphia, then all my children are 1. my summers back then🥰🥰🥰🥰
“Look into my eyes, I could use a little Loving....” 🎶🎶🎶
OMG I was 6 years old and I remember watching this. Makes me feel sad about this soap too.
I had loved this theme song ever since I was 12.
One TV critic said this was the best opening for a soap at the time. I often thought the graphics were like watered-down soft porn. LOL Definitely in the top 10 of lyrical soap opera theme songs.
I love everything about this! The graphics...the song...the instrumental arrangement. It's perfect! I really do miss this show, wish it was still on.
Besides AMC, I wasn’t a huge fan of ABC soaps but I would record Loving on my vcr just for the theme😂😂…btw, is this Casey from the Chat???🤔
@@Enrique-cs8id Yes, I am LOL
@@caseyhutchison7812 wow I love you guys!! I listen every week!!!❤️
I have to give it to ABC for hiring talented musical celebrities to sing/record theme songs for their tv shows.

oh this is my favorite!!!! and Ava, was da shit!!!
I Love this opening the Best! Its interesting too because I was interning for the show in the Spring of 93! 🥰
I was born in 1992 December and I remember this theme song 😄... complete Nostalgia
I remember going on a School field trip with Pauline Jones Elementary School and i saw the 1992 Loving closing credits at Sears at Cross Creek Mall (which was recently shut down in 2020 or 2021) and this is the 30th anniversary of the Osbourne Loving theme song today.
Love the theme song even though Loving did not aired in Hawaii!!! I watched episodes when I lived in the mainland and my favorite couple Ally and Casey!
I love this song. I wish that I can listen to the whole thing.
Who sings this song
@@mariesierra8584 Jeffrey Osborne

this is my song!! jeffrey osborne is the man!
I had loved this song ever since my junior high days. I use to sing along with this song. Well. With my terrible voice that is.
Marlana sing because it makes you happy! Close the windows, or maybe do it in your car where nobody can hear: L. O. V. I. N. G. And LOL! Hugs!
@@Mister_Listener Thank you.
I loved this show
Another "Loving" theme song I love and grew up with!
That was the best one, ever!

I grew up watching abc soaps,the nostalgia
Happy memories from my childhood
Omg am I the only one that remembers this soap opera
No honey.
Love that.
Best soap opera theme EVER!!!
One of the best Theme songs.
Loving on ABC Daytime is brought to you by Kellogg's Frosted Flakes.... They're Grrrrrreat
I remember this theme in November 92 I was sick 😷 with the flu can’t barely head to school I was only 8 years old in fall 92
I love this soap opening!!!
moomookillaz so love it too!!!!
Loving The Daytime Soap Opera Of All Time Here On ABC
I love this song.
I love this theme song! :)
This was the best soap opening with vocals; nothing compares to this theme song for a soap where there are lyrics being sung (just check out "Guiding Lights" last theme song and you'll know what I mean!)
I didn’t know it was a them song for soap opera. I used to watch this with my mom everyday first time i saw the theme
Intro I thought it was a commercial
Yessss, hello 2024😂😂😂 Best show ever
I miss the soaps on ABC
@Cyclops236 i'm not sure what the mix-up is, but Johnny Mathis' theme was used from maybe mid-1989 until approx. 1991, at which time a new, competely instrumental, theme was introduced..it was either 1992 or 1993 when the Jeffrey Osborne theme came into play (pun intended)..if you are referring to this particular video, it is, indeed, Jeffrey Osborne (probably at the height of his popularity)
Nice opening
Soothing and sexy....great opening but nothing compares to the Loving Murders....FIGURE IT OUT! So creative!
This was a fucking BOP back in the day!!! Yassss!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Yasssss
Damn I wish there was reruns.......
BEST SOAP OPERA!!!
I still remember the words... 12 year old me just woke up in me. Lol
L♥️VING
Is there a full song of this? Or is it just this version? It seems this is the chorus or a longer song.
I remember this theme sung
Me too.
One of the many soaps my mom recorded when she was at work lol
It’s a good perfect song for Alexander O’Neal and janet jackson for loving theme
My favorite Loving Character of ALL time is GWEN !! XD
Never been real big on soap operas,but this is the last one that I really had any interest in.That one that succeeded it,The City,tried to get into that for a couple weeks,but it just didnt make it for me.
Is there a full version of this beautiful song?
Negative. It was written for the show. Secret Squadron, over and out.
don't think so; the opening had the words, with the closing partially sungby backup singers..doubt if there's a full-length version of this sone...
Help! I'm looking for the full version of this beautiful song. Do you have it?
this opening is the only version i'm aware that exists..this and a parts of the instrumental closing.....
@@dannyhill8797 Okay. Thanks anyway.
YAAAAAAAAAASS
Why isn't there a streaming service of some kind for old soaps like this? That would be amazing.
no one wants to pay royalties..starting some time in 1978, they stopped erasing videos and started preserving these shows..now, they're probably sitting in a vault somewhere collecting dust......
@@dannyhill8797 That's really unfortunate. I would rewatch all of these.
I think had ABC moved Loving in between One Life To Live and General Hospital, it probably would have gone better and it wouldn't have seen the disaster it became, when they renamed it The City
Or between the other two Agnes Nixon shows. Going up against Y&R was terrible. How could it win?

no, there isn't - to the best of my knowledge..if there was, the folks at UA-cam would have busted me a long time ago...and i don't think crooners like Jeffrey Osborne still exists..from the mid-80s into the early 90s, a lot of classy songs along this vein came out..no comment on today's fare...
Didn't they weave a storyline from Loving into GH or one of the others soaps? Something about some killings?
That's not Jeffrey Osborne it's Johnny Mathis and that's according to ValentinoRomaUno who posted Loving 1989 Short Opening With Johnny Mathis I heard the end of this theme song when I watched that video.
Johnny Mathis did the theme from 89 to 91..." As long as winds will my blow, my Loving will protect you. No matter where we are I'll be right here to give you Loving through it all"
12:35 on abc
wait I think ill go with the one with Johnny mathis too but Jeffrey osbourne is10 Johnny 9.6
This is no doubt Jeffrey Osborne, but who's the female vocalist? They sound great together whoever she is
you yet...Sir, you food's here. Did I order something? Yeah. A knuckle sandwich.
To recap, Dan, Mathis was 3/27/89-2/1/91. The Lowe/Shapiro instrumental was 2/4/91 to 2/13/92, and Osborne was 2/14/92 through 11/10/95 (end). It's amazing how people don't go beyond UA-cam to learn about popular artists who were probably before their time anyway! :)
BTW, on the subject, did you have any success in piecing together a Loving Mathis instrumental close?
Any idea what the credits at the very beginning of this clip are from? What show?
You are obviously unfamiliar with Mathis, a pop singer with a 50+ year career on the American charts. This was Jeffrey Osborne. Valentino was incorrect, and in fact, I correct that person myself long ago. Just look up Osborne songs, and then Mathis tracks on UA-cam, and try to prove us wrong,
Who is the woman singing with Jeffrey ?
👀😍
I know people will agree
I remember a woman character was killed off and my wife being so distraught she stopped watching soaps.
I remember back in the day thinking this theme was so racy, especially compared to the original. 😅
