This is the greatest version of the song I’ve ever heard. The voices and empathy of these performers can really hit home with your heart and emotions if you allow it to.
The music too. Emotions are like riding a rollercoaster
It’s the original if it’s not it is now
So true....and i have every version ;-)

This is literally the best song I have EVER heard. The instrumental solos are great and the vocals are even better. This is a true masterpiece that demonstrates how good music was back in the day.

Absolutely
Ça vieilli jamais !
Honestly so underrated, I love this song so much.
All the music made today is synthesized so all the drumming and beats all sound a like. The music back in 90’s and before that were all produced by real drums and Instruments. If you listen carefully each drum beat and instrument sounds different and unique. There’s a different type of thump that just hits different.
Still on my music at 62 ! Lol
@@Bnguyen276 Weren’t there countless amounts of people replaced by drum machines in the ‘80s?
This is more better than that surf mesa ver.
@@Bnguyen276 “ all the music today “ you sound like a miserable old man that doesn’t even look into the things he criticises, POP music nowadays all sound the same but pop is not the only genre that exists. Today there are arguably more variety in music than there was back then
This was our wedding 💑 song, and 37 years later, we still both listen to it. Thank you for the great music 🎶
Our wedding song in June 1980
Thats adorable! It’s amazing that you and your s/o still listen to this tune!
❤
Félicitations
♥️♥️♥️♥️
That is cute!
I love that they were still using strings and horns in 1982...those instruments seemed to have disappeared completely from disco music by 1980.
DJ Hutcherson This song sounds straight out 1979, the horns and strings stuck around until until around 1981 for the most part
@@MellowCorn-xs8bn I think DJ Hutcherson's comment was fairly accurate re: the timing. There were exceptions of course, but by and large, at least here in the US, there was a notable retraction away from orchestras, strings and horns in 1980. Europe was different. On Wikipedia, I read some excellent discussion (with sources cited and links for readers to follow) about that rather abrupt transition, along with the rise of the many subgenres of dance music that developed post-disco. It's an excellent read (link to follow). By 1981, projects like Boys Town Band were ignored by American radio and tended to be played only by DJ's in big city discos and gay clubs. There remained a gay audience, buying those records, but the numbers paled in comparison to 1978 or 1979. By contrast, audiences in the UK remained more receptive to disco's orchestration and four-on-the-floor well into the early-mid 80's, but I digress.
I think the popularity of the Village People provides a clear snapshot of the disco 'crash' of 1980. From Wikipedia: "The group's fame peaked in 1979 with a three-month North American tour, several appearances on The Merv Griffin Show and American Bandstand, and performing with Bob Hope to entertain U.S. troops. They were also featured on the cover of Rolling Stone, Vol. 289, April 19, 1979. Willis left the group in August 1979, during production of the upcoming musical movie tentatively titled Discoland: Where the Music Never Ends. He was replaced by Ray Simpson, the brother of Valerie Simpson (of Ashford & Simpson) who had previously sung background vocals with the group on their 1979 tour. The end of 1979 saw the release of Live and Sleazy, a double album featuring Victor Willis on lead vocals on the “Live” disc and Simpson's debut with the group on the "Sleazy" disc.
1980-1985
In June 1980 the feature film now retitled Can't Stop the Music was released. The film was directed by Nancy Walker, written by Allan Carr and Bronte Woodard, music and lyrics by Jacques Morali (except Willis who penned the lyrics to "Milkshake" and "Magic Night") and starring Steve Guttenberg, Valerie Perrine, Jean-Claude Billmaer, and Bruce (Caitlyn) Jenner. By the time it was released disco's popularity had waned. At the March 1981 Golden Raspberry Awards, the movie was named Worst Picture and Worst Screenplay, and was nominated in almost all the other categories. Although the title song became a club play chart success and moderate radio hit, it was nominated for Worst Original Song "Razzie" and did not live up to sales expectations, never obtaining gold status as a single or album.[11]
Here's a link to the Wikipedia page about disco. Folks who loved/still love that genre will likely enjoy reading through its evolution. They touch on issues such as "relabeling" (getting away from the word disco), the splintering into subgenres that tailored to specific scenes and audiences (early house, for example) and the few notable exceptions, where 1980's stars had 'disco' songs that were undeniably popular. I think it's a good read. Enjoy! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disco
Indeed. At least in the USA. I have some French Disco records from 1983 that use the horns and strings in them. I love it. It gives it that spacey, loung feel from the 50s over a dance beat.
Listen to “Kelly” by Kelly Groucutt. Recorded in ‘81, released in early ‘82. It has plenty of strings in it.
Silence on 8.20 to 8.47 was telling the end of disco music
This is the purest sound I've ever heard. Feel your mind enter into absolute bliss and peace. INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! UNBELIVABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree.I bask in music like this.
Exactly! ❤️ 🕊️
The lamp is low:😳
For me it's full of dread because its tone is perfect to be used ironically in a meme that shines light onto (for example) the truth about how Teflon is carcinogenic, but it's factory owning companies decided not to say anything about it for years.
:D everything the riff happens it makes me reminded of all this horrible shit our greed made some of us do :)
@@CATel_ i have never heard about this meme but yeah, it is a way to interpret it i guess XD
THIS is the best version. 100%. All other versions are canceled for me.
bruh nothing beats the original 😐
Litty Boi The Original is from 7000 years ago. A little enhancement was necessary.
Lol
Litty Boi this one sure did lol
frankie valli the best
when i was little i played just dance a lot and this song was on one of them, i loved it and still do now
sameeeee i liked being the woman in pink cause it she looked pretty to me when i was smaller lol
welcome, welcome to “can’t take my eyes off you.” it’s safer here. you’ve either been searching for this song or this song has been searching for you. now, you can rest listening to this song, in joy.
Great music
My crush is in a concert band and she plays trumpet, every time I hear the song and the trumpet part comes on I can't help but imagine her playing this and I get all flustered and just. I explode with joy and excitement thinking about it, I can't stop smiling like an idiot 😅
I hope you guys never get together. stalkerish 🤮
Definitely tell her!!! Because the worst that could happen is she says no but what if she says yes but you never told her?
omg i'm getting flustered just thinking about that
Alright, time for a 1 month update. Did you tell her yet? If not, do it.
@@Sailor_noir but what if she's your life coach
9 minutos con 29 segundos que trascurren sin sentir. La mejor versión de este clásico.
YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH
Si
I Kept looking for I love you baby
I couldn’t find it ANYWHERE
Totalmente de acuerdo. 👍🏼😊
Sin duda alguna
This song is… so confusing and beautiful… like it’s such a late disco piece of its type. It’s giving that ‘78-‘79 sound, it was delightfully dated even back then.
This is the more beautiful melody and song of the world
Agreed

This is for you wherever you are... I hope you still remember this song. Every time I listened to this song my heart beat pumping so fast...❤️

the best version of the song
Can't take My Eyes For You
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothing else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak
But if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that it's real
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
I love you baby and if it's quite all right
I need you baby to warm the lonely nights
I love you baby, trust in me when I say
Oh pretty baby, don't bring me down I pray
Oh pretty baby, now that I've found you stay
And let me love you baby, let me love you
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
I love you baby and if it's quite all right
I need you baby to warm the lonely nights
I love you baby, trust in me when I say
Oh pretty baby, don't bring me down I pray
Oh pretty baby, now that I've found you stay
And let me love you baby, let me love you.
No Puedo Deajr De verte
Eres demasiado buena para ser verdad
No puedo dejar de verte
Tocarte sería como tocar el cielo
Tengo tantos deseos de abrazarte
Por fin el amor ha llegado
Y le doy gracias a dios por estar vivo
Eres demasiado buena para ser verdad
No puedo dejar de verte
Disculpa la manera en la que te veo
No hay nada que se compare
A la visión de ti que me debilita
No hay más palabras que decir
Pero si te sientes como yo
Por favor déjame saber si es real
Eres demasiado buena para ser verdad
No pued
o dejar de verte
Te amo nena y si está bien
Te necesito nena para calentar las noches solitarias
Te amo nena, confía en mi cuando te digo
Oh nena hermosa, rezo por que no me abandones
Oh nena hermosa, ahora que te he encontrado, quédate
Y déjame amarte, déjame amarte
Eres demasiado buena para ser verdad
No puedo dejar de verte
Tocarte sería como tocar el cielo
Tengo tantos deseos de abrazarte
Por fin el amor ha llegado
Y le doy gracias a dios por estar vivo
Eres demasiado buena para ser verdad
No puedo dejar de verte
Te amo nena y si está bien
Te necesito nena para calentar las noches solitarias
Te amo nena, confía en mi cuando te digo
Oh nena hermosa, rezo por que no me abandones
Oh nena hermosa, ahora que te he encontrado, quédate
Y déjame amarte, déjame amarte.
Wow te tomaste el tiempo de escribirla en 2 idiomas! Felicidades! Es chingon ser al menos bilingue. I love this song also!
Thanks
This song takes you to a life that’s nonexistent, like the nostalgia..
This feels unlike anything else you’d hear today. I hope we get a resurgence of post-disco instrumentation
Best version of the song in my opinion
Other versions of this song are good, but this version is just flawless and beautiful, my absolute favorite, always brings you joy whenever you listen.
If I ever get a big enough audience on UA-cam were bringing back disco by a large force, this music era was truly something else
This is my favorite song, as long as I can remember. And I still remember the first time I heard this long version. I was expecting the next song or an ad on the radio, but it kept playing and playing forever, mind completely blown.
Y'ALL ITS CHRISTMAS EVE EVE IN 2020 FOR ME AND I'M S T I L L VIBING TO THIS SONG!! ABSOLUTE G E M

Take me back to the 80s. The time of my life with my youth, work, play and music. A good decade. Today stinks
I grew up with this version and I’m proud it was this one
im a 2000 baby and yes also ❤ my parents had good taste
Fantastic musical work from the early eighties! What I call the Greaties! Can't take my eyes off of you, Boys Town Gang! Well Done! You're just too good to be true! I remember this from 1982! They played it on a cassette player on the minibus that served as my school bus.Ah! Such nice memories! And I thank God I'm alive!

私はこの楽曲が大好きでした。男性2人、女性1人の3人のグループでした。ボーカルの女性の声がとても素敵でよくFMで聴いていました。この曲を聴いて毎日自分に喝を入れて会社に出勤します。今でも通用する名曲です。是非とも後世に聴いて欲しい楽曲です。

I woke up with this song in my head, the first time I woke up happy in a while!
1:00 this is such an awesome part!
I really love this version !!! It feels the energy they played it with, amazing

Existen muchas versiones de esta canción pero, de todas, la mejor es ésta de los Boys Town Gang...la voz maravillosa de Jackson Moore es inigualable...recuerdo muy bien su carita temblorosa por los nervios de estar ante el público mexicano en su visita al programa de Siempre en Domingo.....De eso tiene ya..huuuuuuy..muchos años.
tienes el vídeo??
Wooooow!!! Vaya recuerdo!!!
It seems like yesterday when we danced to this at the disco. One of the best dance tracks, without any club mixing. Got to think of routine to it now that I have heard it again. Thankyou Boys Town Gang. Reform please. Xx
Best version of the song
¡Que bellos recuerdos! Bailando con mi novia de 1982 esta canción en su fiesta de cumpleaños especial dos o tres veces porque no podía quitar los ojos de ella. Gracias por esta canción y bendita seas Concepción donde quiera que estés.
Gracias a todos por sus likes. Eso era por estar enamorado.
Another song made popular by Dixicana Radio based in Arnhem Gelderland, eastern part of the Netherlannds. This can't be denied. One of the best radio stations in East Netherlands.
I am here because of Sakai Izumi
She mentioned that she loves listening to this version whenever she is depressed, and she can always find energy in 'I love you baby'
Just wanna let she knows I am energized by her song too
Miss you so much, Izumi san

This song has the power of a million monsoons 🌊 💫
I can’t believe I’ve never heard this version, I always thought the Morton Harket version was superior but holy shit this has such good energy

Saludos ! por el buen gosto
since I was 10 I have loved this song. it has made me dance around all happy every time I hear it. thank you boys town gang!
Elle est tellement joyeuse cette chanson. Je l'ai toujours adoré. Elle donne envie de danser et d'oublier tous ses soucis.
Carrément ! Je la entendue étant tout petit puis je l’ai redécouverte hier en regardant le film génial « Le sens de la fête »
The 2 instrumental finales of this song are phenomenal!
🌈💯🪩 I was so thrilled to listen to this and play it as a DJ in the 1980s… Taking a super good song and pumping it up with the HiNRG disco sound of the 1980s.😘👍

Lyrics
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be like Heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last, love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothin' else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak
But if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that it's real
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
I love you, baby
And if it's quite alright
I need you, baby
To warm the lonely night
I love you, baby
Trust in me when I say
Oh, pretty baby
Don't bring me down, I pray
Oh, pretty baby
Now that I've found you, stay
And let me love you, baby
Let me love you
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be like Heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last, love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you
I love you, baby
And if it's quite alright
I need you, baby
To warm the lonely night
I love you, baby
Trust in me when I say
Oh, pretty baby
Don't bring me down, I pray
Oh, pretty baby
Now that I've found you, stay
Oh, pretty baby
Trust in me when I say
Oh, pretty baby
Thank youu!
Just got back from a party where they played that song. Feeling so thrilled to discover it all over again years after I first heard it 🥰 Have fun people !
This is a beautiful love song sung with so much feeling. One of my favorite songs of all time. I like the music played by classic instruments better than the electronic one being made nowadays. And it is great to hear whilst quarantined because of the COVID19 crisis.
Les patrons de cafés sont devenus riches rien qu'avec cette chanson. Quel souvenir.
This song is a feel good majestic song. Every single second sounds like a non stop 80’s heaven.
IF YOU ARE LISTENING TO THIS IN 2022 YOU ARE A LEGEND!!!!
What about 2023 ?
Got this song from funny dancing cat
Si, y aun asi no deja de sonar nostalgico, recuerdo en una fiesta ,ver bailar a los papas de un amigo, como lo hacian cuando se conocieron , sonriendo y con lagrimas !! Pues gracias a esta version se conocieron 😮
Esta canción es realmente BELLÍSIMA , la bailamos en la temporada de porristas en pieles rojas, fueron muchos equipos de fútbol americano, (comanches, perros negros, politos, entre otros ) NOSOTRAS GANAMOS EL PRIMER LUGAR , EN LA MAGDALENA MIXUCA. QUE TIEMPOS AQUELLOS, DONDE TODA LA GENTE SE RESPETABA Y LA MÚSICA ERA MUY DIFERENTE, ALMENOS TENÍA SENTIDO.
La escucho 8-Ene-22. La estas escuchando tu ????
La escucho en 03 Dic 22
Un clásico que no me perdia bailando en la Disco a finales de los 80's.
Qué tiempos!
Well said 😏
Ahorita la estoy escuchando y es una obra de arte
