Speaking only for myself, I much prefer the first version. It was far more creative and fun, both. I don't know why it's not still out here and available.
seriously one of my all time favorite songs.. words cannot express how amazing this entire album is.. it's autumnal.. it perfectly fits the cool weather months ☺️
This song makes me think of a really shity relationship I had with an a****** from Liverpool in 2005 but now makes me think I'm lucky to have a great relationship in 2019, let go of your heart let go of your head. Fucking right!!!
I'm 15 years young and I a'm listening to this kind of music. I hate all the modern R&B and Rap music and I love this kind of muic. I can't get enough of it
2019 February 11th You dam right!!! This song still remains A classic..I love David Gray..i got about 50 Songs on my phone.. That are all epic to me.. Babylon is when I first Discovered mr gray...
to ed m and others........................this an enlightened piece with a driving backbeat that keeps the song on-track and takes you with it...........if someone was born to do a song then David G, this was your moment and will continue to be as long as it's played...............different strokes for different folks..........this is goooood music!
This goes out to the young man with tomorrow in his eyes. You knew I fell for you the moment we met. and you took away all the pain of a life I was never meant to have. You might never have known that knowing you saved me-I now you will laugh, but I know I regret not one second I spent with you-I hope one day we can pick up where we left off. I love you so much Ethan.
David Gray's one of those artists that I loved to death and somehow neglected for a few years. Now I'm falling in love with his music all over again and it feels awesome!
I can't tell you how many times I've listened to this song - I still love it as much as the first time I heard it. I've seen David in concert twice now and the way he can switch from different instruments is amazing. A truely talented man.
Always loved this song. And it's one of those Memory Association songs for me, one of my greatest friends and I shared a parting moment... one the seperated us for over a decade until I returned from my first Tour in Iraq... sitting in her car while this song played!
I never realized this was filmed in North Beach/Little Italy in San Francisco! Jack Kerouac Street is two blocks from my job. Great song, still holds up, fantastic drumming and the line “The love that I was giving you was never in doubt” is such an earnest lyric anyone can relate to.
Friday night I'm going nowhere All the lights are changing green to red Turning over TV stations Situations running through my head Well looking back through time You know it's clear that I've been blind I've been a fool To ever open up my heart To all that jealousy, that bitterness, that ridicule Saturday I'm running wild And all the lights are changing red to green Moving through the crowd I'm pushing Chemicals all rushing through my bloodstream Only wish that you were here You know I'm seeing it so clear I've been afraid To tell you how I really feel Admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made If you want it Come and get it Crying out loud The love that I was Giving you was Never in doubt Let go your heart Let go your head And feel it now Babylon, Babylon Sunday all the lights of London Shining , Sky is fading red to blue I'm kicking through the Autumn leaves And wondering where it is you might be going to Turning back for home You know I'm feeling so alone I can't believe Climbing on the stair I turn around to see you smiling there In front of me If you want it Come and get it Crying out loud The love that I was Giving you was Never in doubt And feel it now Let go your heart Let go your head And feel it now Let go your heart Let go your head And feel it now Let go your heart Let go your head And feel it now Let go your heart Let go your head And feel it now Babylon, Babylon, Babylon
they use his music on ALOT of television shows.....for mood music. and no one ever can say who the artist is!!!! i love him! i wish he was more popular here but i discovered him while i was living in the UK
obwohl der song schon älter ist - immer wenn ich ihn höre (viel zu selten!!!), bekomm ich gänsehaut und liebe diesen song immer wieder aufs neue. es gibt viel zu wenige solcher klasse songs, die einem aus dem herzen sprechen!!!!
i can remember being in high school and I was on the basketball team... and even though i was pretty good for some reason i used to get really nervous about embarassing myself or something like that... anyways it was by far my biggest worry back then lol... anyways i can remember vividly listening to this song in the back of my dad's car and for some reason everything clicked... and i know its a love song but for some reason the let go of your head part really made feel like..who cares goodtune
Superb version - knocks the other into the middle of next week. That three-note repeated synth is legendary, and the drummer is on some kind of early 90s old skool SL2-esque trip (check DJs Take Control) the way he patterns the percussion - fantastic.
amazing. they used to play it at my work all the time but I was always too occupied with the grind to really hear it. now it's on a whole new level. that's all we gotta do; let go of our hearts, head, and just feel.
edmasterson - you are so right. I have a musician and songwriter in my family and it isn't as easy as this talented man appears to be. Not much in talent these days without digging deep. True talent writes, plays and can sing live without lipsync.
As a fellow 54 year old man I can tell you that I truly understand what you're saying. I think we don't always have to know why a song touches us; we just need to know that nit does.
My wedding song.....17 years later and the love is still never in doubt. x
Good choice sir!
I actually prefer this version to the other . I love this song.
Speaking only for myself, I much prefer the first version. It was far more creative and fun, both. I don't know why it's not still out here and available.
Babylon II is the better version.
Is this song in Spotify?@@FJC464

Black Calla Lily mine too! It’s soooo good!
This is still one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. It never, ever gets old.
I'm 15 years young and I a'm listening to this kind of music. I hate all the modern R&B and Rap music and I love this kind of muic. I can't get enough of it
One of my ALL-TIME favorites.
His drummer is a Madman !!!
Lindsay Thomas , pure musical talents are often seen as madmen! #McClune #genius
"Was"..he is not with him anymore
He looks like Kramer from Seinfeld
love him :)
2019 February 11th
You dam right!!!
This song still remains
A classic..I love David
Gray..i got about 50
Songs on my phone..
That are all epic to me..
Babylon is when I first
Discovered mr gray...
to ed m and others........................this an enlightened piece with a driving backbeat that keeps the song on-track and takes you with it...........if someone was born to do a song then David G, this was your moment and will continue to be as long as it's played...............different strokes for different folks..........this is goooood music!
Time Less Song..... IT REALLY Does Remind you of good old days no matter when it was..its just the song that does it.
This goes out to the young man with tomorrow in his eyes. You knew I fell for you the moment we met. and you took away all the pain of a life I was never meant to have. You might never have known that knowing you saved me-I now you will laugh, but I know I regret not one second I spent with you-I hope one day we can pick up where we left off. I love you so much Ethan.
As a drummer, I can appreciate the extra flare the drummer puts into it. He is wacked out, I mean he is absolutely sick. (it's a good thing).
David Gray's one of those artists that I loved to death and somehow neglected for a few years. Now I'm falling in love with his music all over again and it feels awesome!
I can't tell you how many times I've listened to this song - I still love it as much as the first time I heard it. I've seen David in concert twice now and the way he can switch from different instruments is amazing. A truely talented man.
If you're still looking...I think this is the Radio Mix 1 version on iTunes.
"Let go of your heart, let go of your head..." Brilliant gift. THX! :)
Ah Mr Gray, pure legend of a song, one of my favs - WithoutUHere
A soulful ballard. Ten years ago, times were so different, even then.
The synth background music makes this song so perfect.
It has that Phil Collins “Take Me Home” sound
I actually prefer this version to the other . I love this song.
Top tune
Ah Mr Gray, pure legend of a song, one of my favs - WithoutUHere
TREMENDOUS!!!!
His drummer is a Madman !!!
This song crosses over generations....I'm old enough to be his mother and I love the energy in this song and in Gray.
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!

Always loved this song. And it's one of those Memory Association songs for me, one of my greatest friends and I shared a parting moment... one the seperated us for over a decade until I returned from my first Tour in Iraq... sitting in her car while this song played!
This was originally released 99' but was remade 2000. Great 90's song!!
This Year's Love is one of my favourite songs, but I heard this on TV and realised how much I missed it. Can't believe how old these songs are.
One of the beast songs of all time! 5/5

My top ten of favourite songs has this as number 1
Friday night I'm going nowhere
All the lights are changing green to red
Turning over TV stations
Situations running through my head
Well looking back through time
You know it's clear that I've been blind
I've been a fool
To ever open up my heart
To all that jealousy, that bitterness, that ridicule
Saturday I'm running wild
And all the lights are changing red to green
Moving through the crowd I'm pushing
Chemicals all rushing through my bloodstream
Only wish that you were here
You know I'm seeing it so clear
I've been afraid
To tell you how I really feel
Admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made
If you want it
Come and get it
Crying out loud
The love that I was
Giving you was
Never in doubt
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now
Babylon, Babylon
Sunday all the lights of London
Shining , Sky is fading red to blue
I'm kicking through the Autumn leaves
And wondering where it is you might be going to
Turning back for home
You know I'm feeling so alone
I can't believe
Climbing on the stair
I turn around to see you smiling there
In front of me
If you want it
Come and get it
Crying out loud
The love that I was
Giving you was
Never in doubt
And feel it now
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now
Babylon, Babylon, Babylon
it's impossible to feel down when you hear this
they use his music on ALOT of television shows.....for mood music. and no one ever can say who the artist is!!!! i love him! i wish he was more popular here but i discovered him while i was living in the UK
just a classic...will live on and be reborn...redone...rediscovered....words are infinite..
EXCEPTIONAL song. Hard-hitting.
Saw him in concert a couple of years ago & can honestly say it was one of the best gigs I've ever seen. Fantastic!
It`s really touching music. I feel good, listening to this hope spreading song.
I love the honesty of this song...
rare song from the 90's i like.....kool tune!!!!
just a great tune that makes you happy to think about past relations the beauty of HANGING OUT IN LONDON JUST A TIME TO REFLECT Cheers!
obwohl der song schon älter ist - immer wenn ich ihn höre (viel zu selten!!!), bekomm ich gänsehaut und liebe diesen song immer wieder aufs neue. es gibt viel zu wenige solcher klasse songs, die einem aus dem herzen sprechen!!!!
Came out the same time I had my 1st truly healthy adult relationship. No wonder I had to stop, watch and listen anytime this video came on TV.
Classic song,brilliant !!!
when they shoot the audiencve that girl shows so much joy singing along its great
I loved the song when I was 13. I remember I bought the cd. My friends at school liked gangster rap. I was the oddball who loved this type of music
This is a great song. One of my all time favorites.
Once I saw this video, all i can say is KUDOS Mr Gray...Your song is the absolute best.

Superb version - knocks the other into the middle of next week.
That three-note repeated synth is legendary, and the drummer is on some kind of early 90s old skool SL2-esque trip (check DJs Take Control) the way he patterns the percussion - fantastic.
some great vid of San Francisco....comin' into Babylon over The Bay Bridge.....
amazing. they used to play it at my work all the time but I was always too occupied with the grind to really hear it.
now it's on a whole new level. that's all we gotta do; let go of our hearts, head, and just feel.
edmasterson - you are so right. I have a musician and songwriter in my family and it isn't as easy as this talented man appears to be. Not much in talent these days without digging deep. True talent writes, plays and can sing live without lipsync.
you are the biggest star in the world David fantastic song
i do love this song, david is a good songwriter and good singer too.thanks for this
NOVEMBER 2012 STILL LISTENING :)
As a fellow 54 year old man I can tell you that I truly understand what you're saying. I think we don't always have to know why a song touches us; we just need to know that nit does.
This song speaks to me so much, I've missed out on love so many times because I was afraid to tell someone how I felt. **SIGH**
"Let go of your heart-- let go of your head-- feel it now"
