2005 Live/Studio Version from UFO "Lights out" album/CD. Phil Mogg(Vocals) Vinnie Moore(Guitar) Pete Way(Bass) ( RIP ) Paul Raymond(Keyboards) ( RIP ) Jason Bonham(Drums)
The song has meant so much to me over the years it's hard to put it into words.. pure beautifully melodic rock from Masters at what they do..of the Greatest..
This is quite possibly the most beautiful song I’ve ever heard. The studio version is great, the Strangers in the Night live version even better, but this version takes it to another level. Much as I love Maiden, Purple, AC/DC, none can match UFO
I agree, I was there for Iron Maiden supporting Judas Priest, Ozzy leaving Sabbath and his Blizzard of Oz tour, I saw all the deep purple spin offs but UFO were and still are my favourite
Can't express how much I love UFO. How much they meant to me growing up, how many hard times they helped me through and especially this song. Tremendous version.
I was 18 when I first saw UFO, 1979 Sacramento. Judas Priest opened for them. I'm 64 and I listen to them almost every day. Three summers ago, I got the ice cream man to play Rock Bottom when driving down our street. I'm at that age where I don't give a s***.
the most underrated band ever. UFO kicks ass!!!. Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, led zepp, deep purple and ufo. The greatest bands in the world. According to me.
Strangers in the Night would have sounded very thin without Paul's fills and backup rhythm playing and keyboards...he truly was that inside glue you don't think about when you say, wow, that song was great. His duel leads with Schenker on SITN are magical.
In tears. Heartbroken about Pete Way's passing. A wonderful bass player and by all accounts a great guy. My heart and thoughts are with his family and friends.
UFO has always been a class act. I saw them live in Seattle for the Lights Out Tour... AWESOME...Michael Schenker had not yet left them to go solo and he was incredible.
@@everettbyromiii47 same tour Baltimore UFO stole the show Schenker was the reason I went out the next day and bought every UFO album that Schenker had a hand in !! Cheap Trick opened the show !!
Absolutely most underrated band ever. Why they weren't more popular is a mystery to me. Anytime you can add some classical instruments to a rock song speaks volumes as to the quality of the music (Scorpions live with the Berliner Philharmoniker comes to mind). Incredible version here.
the harmonics from Vinnie's Ibanez 🎸 along with Marshall Amps brings 😢 to my eye's in an AMAZING ballad is what it represents for me how about all the other listeners that have had the PLEASURE to 👀 it? the leads R epic man Vinnie nails the last solo that he shreds the neck & strings absolutely flawless.the drums R fantastic as well very clean version being recorded in a studio setting.
Holy Sh*%& T Phil Mogg's voice is dead on !! major underrated singer. I love how at 6:12 he shoulder shrugs like he is unsure of how he sounds... Well Phil you blew me away my friend :)
Yes ma ma mia he's blown me away till last time i saw UFO IT WAS THERE LAST SHOW IN ST.CHRALS ILL. A COUPLE YEARS AGO SO SAD AT THE END RIP TO ALL THIS AMAZING BAND MEMBERS WE LOST RIP PAUL PETE
Favorite song of all time! Tell me why they never have Michael Schenker on the list of top ten guitarists ever. UFO was right up there with any rock band and i would go anywhere in California to see them live and in the nineties went to see them at a small venue at the coach house that has about 500 seats and it was the highlight of my life being inches from the band as they played a 2 hour set of there classics on a Tuesday night. So good to have them in my era growing up in the seventies and thanks for the music UFO.
Schenker is on my top 10 for sure. I never for the life of me will understand how this band wasn't a bigger deal mainstream. I guess that just goes to show you...
One of the most beautiful and amazing songs I’ve ever heard. Put this on with your airpods or headphones whatever and just listen to every second of in the dark by yourself and it will change you forever…I love UFO and lots and lots of rock snd metal and I have to listen to this one over and over again. Perfection…
Simply outstanding. Whatever your taste in music, I do not consider you would dislike this for any reason. Thank you messrs Mogg, Way, Moore, Bonham, & of course, the venerable Mr. Paul Raymond - I hope you're entertaining the folks - wherever that may be :D
As BIG as AC/DC? They were much, much bigger. (at least to those of us who know good music). I'm a drummer and lead vocalist, so I know a bit of which I am speaking. WAY too underrated.
Incredible legendary musicians...from UFO, I miss Pete Way, Paul Raymond and Paul Chapman...may they all RIP...music like this will never be made again...
RIP Mr. Paul Raymond. The beautiful tones you created for your music, were not only captivating, but truly living notes that provided me with life, in a time when I should have left this earth. Thankfully, God had other plans for me. My. Phil Mogg - Your voice doesn't sound a day over 25 yrs young. God bless you all, and thank you for this remade version of this classic rock song.
Awesome! one of the best-crafted rock songs of all time. Never get tired of listening to this - strings section also works a treat. UFO have so many great songs and should have had more recognition - what a band!
This is one of UFOs masterpieces. Paul Raymond was an amazing musician and true artist. God speed Paul. You have joined the gems of Rock and Roll Heaven.
What an incredible version of one of the most beautiful songs ever. Love the strings, love the vocals and love the guitar playing. Awesome stuff all the way around. For anyone not already aware, this magical piece can be found on the 2005 Live DVD "Showtime". (There is a second disc which includes this song and few others in the same studio session with the strings, as well as a touching interview with Jason Bonham talking about his father).
I saw U.F.O. in a underground warehouse in the 80’s in Long Beach California!! They were amazing!! Was right next to the stage! I’ve never forgotten it!
What a classic and the musicianship is out of this world! My brother showed me this track sometime ago and ever since I first saw it I have listened to it often, in truth if this track doesn't get to you, nothing will.
Ditto this comment ..... It's a shame they never quite got ALL the recognition they deserved. The first time I saw them Live, they opened for "Rush" in a small theater venue somewhere in Oakland, CA ..... 1978 ..... WoW ~ I'm old as dirt... lol. They were Awesome!
I agree with you wholeheartedly n2tigers99. I was lucky enough to meet Phil Mogg a few months ago and I can assure you that not only is he such a good person to talk too but he is well modest and grounded and he gave me plenty of his time even thou we were in quite a busy street. I'm no young buck neither ... lol.
Beautiful, just beautiful. Thank you Paul for all the fantastic music you have given us over the years. So pleased that I got to see you perform twice on the final tour. You looked like you were really enjoying yourself.....may you rest in peace
One of my all time favorite bands. Always had that classic garage sound and live shows would blow your socks off. I have played their music at parties and turned many friends on to them. Strangers in the night double LP.
Damn, it feels like I've been hit by a fucking truck after hearing this song! How cool can a band be? There is more talent in that studio room than in some small countries! And this song is just magnificent - there is a seuqence of notes there that hypnotyzes me and makes me want to play it over and over and over...
Vocals sound just like in 1977 when album came out. I played the hell out of this one and saw them live when Schenker was lead guitarist, but this guitarist did a wonderful job on this beautiful classic!
This is a excellent song, they don't make them like they used to. Fuck music was better back in the 60s, 70s, 80s. A great era to grew up in. I'm glad I experienced it. Better then todays crap generation.
Sweeeeet :-) My first car was an old 1970 Chevelle and I put an 8 track player in it. I had this UFO tape on the front seat all the time. Great memories of a great time in my life. 19 years old and all was good in my world. Sometimes I wish I could go back for a while. Anyway, the saying that they don't make songs like this anymore is so true:-)
Phil Mogg is like no other singer. His voice is so individual and unique. You could never mistake someone else for him - or the opposite. I've loved UFO since I snatched my sister's Force It album.
Indeed! Phil one of the best, if not the best vocalist of his generation!! I always felt UFO were underrated, and never once did I hear them aired on any of our so called Rock stations in my area. What a shame!! Sad day as we have learned of Paul's passing. Peace be with all of his family, friends and fans!!!
I've always contended that UFO was one THE most underrated bands of all time!
Us cool kids knew.
yes
Great power.
@@sargentwaag1483 😏
Your contention is correct.
The song has meant so much to me over the years it's hard to put it into words.. pure beautifully melodic rock from Masters at what they do..of the Greatest..
I agree !
RIP Mr. Raymond.....you were an amazing musician & your music will never die
Mr.Way as well
@@AB-wv1bs Reaching a bit here, but Tonka, too!
This is quite possibly the most beautiful song I’ve ever heard. The studio version is great, the Strangers in the Night live version even better, but this version takes it to another level. Much as I love Maiden, Purple, AC/DC, none can match UFO
UFO, BY FAR. 🎶
It is a beautiful song. People do not realize that these gentlemen are true artists, educated in their craft. This video is exceptional.
Absolutely no one can touch them
I agree, I was there for Iron Maiden supporting Judas Priest, Ozzy leaving Sabbath and his Blizzard of Oz tour, I saw all the deep purple spin offs but UFO were and still are my favourite
There was some great music around d when this came out, just lime now, but UFO were genuine musicians
Can't express how much I love UFO. How much they meant to me growing up, how many hard times they helped me through and especially this song. Tremendous version.
I remember I had a wonderful gal. But chased this UFO, God I gotta rock 🎶⚔️🛡️🇺🇸🏴🇫🇮🇨🇦🎸🕊️🌎
Yes, good for you. I know it helps
I was 18 when I first saw UFO, 1979 Sacramento. Judas Priest opened for them. I'm 64 and I listen to them almost every day. Three summers ago, I got the ice cream man to play Rock Bottom when driving down our street. I'm at that age where I don't give a s***.
the most underrated band ever. UFO kicks ass!!!. Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, led zepp, deep purple and ufo. The greatest bands in the world. According to me.
accordez moi ça in french
You just nailed my list! All English too, hmmm!!
I saw that I had to get one more comment in on this iconic bad ass bunch UFO you're music lives forever for many to 💕 😘 love
Don’t forget Golden Earring
UFO belong in the RnR HOF like the rest of those Bands!!!
Paul Raymond was UFO's sound just as much as Schenker. His understated keyboards were amazing.
Strangers in the Night would have sounded very thin without Paul's fills and backup rhythm playing and keyboards...he truly was that inside glue you don't think about when you say, wow, that song was great. His duel leads with Schenker on SITN are magical.
Yep, but all nothing without Phil Mogg
Except on the early albums where they found great and there's no keys.
СЛУШАТЬ ВАС.РОДНЫЕ ЛЮДИ, ОДНО УДОВОЛЬСТВИЕ! БЫТЬ МИРУ! БЫТЬ ДОБРУ! ХУДОЙ Т.Е. ПЛОХОЙ МИР, ЛУЧШЕ, ЧЕМ ВОЙНА!!.! 😍🌏😍🌎😍🌍😍🐶🐱🇷🇺
I saw UFO in Chicago October 2017. Raymond and Mogg had an unmatched synergy and the music left me speechless. Such a great band.
R.I.P. Paul...thanks for the memories and music .
Probably one of the greatest melodic songs of all time 😀
ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНО! БРАВО! БРАВО! БРАВИССИМО! МУЗЫКАНТЫ !!! СОЛИСТ, ПЕВЕЦ!!!😍🌏😍🌎😍🌍😍🐶🐱🇷🇺
UFO, should be in the hall of fame
100% they should be
RIP Pete Way , Paul Raymond and Tonka Chapman...what a great band they were!🤘
Phil is so underrated as a vocalist in the wider world of rock. The guy is... just too good to be true, if you ask me. Love those vibratos
Just found out Paul Raymond passed away. So heartsick over this. This song will always bring a smile to my face.
Makes me smile and cry at the same time
In tears. Heartbroken about Pete Way's passing. A wonderful bass player and by all accounts a great guy. My heart and thoughts are with his family and friends.
Thank you Paul Raymond for a lifetime of amazing music and memories. Rest easy good man!
Got me in tears here 😢😭 Just a Beautiful, Soulful, Amazing song 💖💖
Everyone who is knocking this song only wishes they had written and played it. It is a classic so get over it. Awesome always.
I DONT SEE ANYBODY KNOCKING IT ?
@@joegarza3445 He must mean the 129 thumbs down. UFO are.incredible. 🤘🏻
This is a bad ass song! Just look at the fret work of the lead guitarist! Good God man, what do the naysayers like? It's a small world?
Fantastic song...fantastic Band
Rest easy Paul. Thank you for the music.
UFO has always been a class act. I saw them live in Seattle for the Lights Out Tour... AWESOME...Michael Schenker had not yet left them to go solo and he was incredible.
I saw the same tour in San Antonio. They opened for Rush and It was amaze-balls!
@@everettbyromiii47 same tour Baltimore UFO stole the show Schenker was the reason I went out the next day and bought every UFO album that Schenker had a hand in !! Cheap Trick opened the show !!
If I was stranded on a deserted island and had one song to listen to for the rest of my days this is the song!
Wow what an amazing performance of the classic UFO song Love to Love you🎸🎸
OMG...The best 9 minutes you will ever spend in your entire life...listening to this song!!!
Actually there is...listening to the original release is better
Paul Raymond, the Rick Wright of hardrock: minimalistic playing, delicate but oh so efficient accents, without turning a rock band into a cheesy act.
So much moving song and even much more moving version.
So beautiful.
Gotta love the combination of Guitar, keyboard and violin
One of my very favorite male singers. SO underrated! This is my favorite all time song.
BEAUTIFUL ~ BEAUTIFUL ~ BEAUTIFUL!!!
Same here❤
No one could ever sing with the Pain and feel that Phil Mogg sings this, one of their most progressive UFO Classic songs with !!.
Absolutely most underrated band ever. Why they weren't more popular is a mystery to me. Anytime you can add some classical instruments to a rock song speaks volumes as to the quality of the music (Scorpions live with the Berliner Philharmoniker comes to mind). Incredible version here.
The best rock song ever . Thank you UFO.
Beautiful, beautiful!! This band is amazing !!
Best version of this song. Vinnie really nailed it!
Great vocals and music by all. Congrats guys!
This song never gets old.
the harmonics from Vinnie's Ibanez 🎸 along with Marshall Amps brings 😢 to my eye's in an AMAZING ballad is what it represents for me how about all the other listeners that have had the PLEASURE to 👀 it? the leads R epic man Vinnie nails the last solo that he shreds the neck & strings absolutely flawless.the drums R fantastic as well very clean version being recorded in a studio setting.
Best melodic rock band ever. Stunning 😊
Saw these icons 7 times in the late 70's - early 80's. With Dr. Hook a few and Molly Hatchet a few. 👍💛
One of my all-time favorite rock power ballads. 🤘🤘🤘❤❤❤
My take, love to love. UFO's best, I would never settle for less. Powerful, excellent energy..... thanks for posting..... still sounds great 😃..,...
Holy Sh*%& T Phil Mogg's voice is dead on !! major underrated singer. I love how at 6:12 he shoulder shrugs like he is unsure of how he sounds... Well Phil you blew me away my friend :)
My friend phil was never an underated singer, very far from it........
Yes ma ma mia he's blown me away till last time i saw UFO IT WAS THERE LAST SHOW IN ST.CHRALS ILL. A COUPLE YEARS AGO SO SAD AT THE END RIP TO ALL THIS AMAZING BAND MEMBERS WE LOST RIP PAUL PETE
Mogg underrated? Jeez 🙄
@@stephengiffith1010 their last show
Phil moggs voice has always been one of best voices in rock seen ufo over 100 times he never sounds any different he is awesome
One of THE greatest songs of all time. Should be up there with all the rock classics that every one knows and loves.. A great performance of the song.
Favorite song of all time! Tell me why they never have Michael Schenker on the list of top ten guitarists ever. UFO was right up there with any rock band and i would go anywhere in California to see them live and in the nineties went to see them at a small venue at the coach house that has about 500 seats and it was the highlight of my life being inches from the band as they played a 2 hour set of there classics on a Tuesday night.

This is one bad ass song played by a great band that cared about their original sound.
We lost a great legend, Rest in peace Paul Raymond, you will be missed.😥❤🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Simply outstanding. Whatever your taste in music, I do not consider you would dislike this for any reason. Thank you messrs Mogg, Way, Moore, Bonham, & of course, the venerable Mr. Paul Raymond - I hope you're entertaining the folks - wherever that may be :D
This song is how you marry rock music with classical music , absolute perfection
Saw UFO for the first time in 79, thanks a million Paul for the amazing tunes.😍
This has always been my favourite UFO song....for me they should have been as big as AC/DC
johnnyM809 I've always liked Rock Bottom. And although I think AC/DC was great, UFO was better.
johnnyM809 UFO has a much wider range in their music than AC/DC. And this song is so strong. Phil's voice is just perfect for this!
johnnyM809 No doubt. UFO is the most underrated band there is. What a shame.
As BIG as AC/DC? They were much, much bigger. (at least to those of us who know good music). I'm a drummer and lead vocalist, so I know a bit of which I am speaking. WAY too underrated.
lol..yes indeed!
A beautiful version of a song for the ages! Thinking a lot about UFO these days, for obvious reasons. Love you all, God Bless.
What a timeless piece of music, UFO DEFINITELY ROCKS
Says a lot when the Philharmonic is more than happy to send the boys. No digital correction, just the boys, the instruments, the amps. LEGENDS.
Incredible legendary musicians...from UFO, I miss Pete Way, Paul Raymond and Paul Chapman...may they all RIP...music like this will never be made again...
Saw them live twice in the early 1980s and this was the stand out song on both occasions. Beautiful
This has got to be one of the best versions of one of their best songs, BRILLIANT !
RIP Mr. Paul Raymond. The beautiful tones you created for your music, were not only captivating, but truly living notes that provided me with life, in a time when I should have left this earth. Thankfully, God had other plans for me.
My. Phil Mogg - Your voice doesn't sound a day over 25 yrs young.

Awesome! one of the best-crafted rock songs of all time. Never get tired of listening to this - strings section also works a treat. UFO have so many great songs and should have had more recognition - what a band!
This song is one of the best parts about growing up
R.I.P. Pete Way, if ever there was a rock star, it was you.
There aren't many rock singers of Phil Mogg's age who could still do this....a much under-rated vocalist.
Phil still sounds brilliant all those years after Strangers in the Night. Criminally underrated singer and band.
❤ my kind of music, and I love the leadsinger, this song is master❤❤❤
I'm 22 years old and this is one of my all time favorite songs gives me nostalgia of a time that I never lived in
What a great version of this classic song!
This is one of UFOs masterpieces. Paul Raymond was an amazing musician and true artist. God speed Paul. You have joined the gems of Rock and Roll Heaven.
RIP Paul... thanks for these amazing songs!
Missing my daughter ....this song hits the spot!!!!

I played this song from a juke box
In a bar in nor California and
A 1 per-center biker shook my
Hand and thanked me.
Had good taste in music.
I saw U.F.O. in a underground warehouse in the 80’s in Long Beach California!! They were amazing!! Was right next to the stage! I’ve never forgotten it!
Nice, I turned so many people on to UFO in that manner..
R.I.P. Paul Raymond your Music is forever - Thanks
Love to, Love to Love you. We always have and always will.
God bless you Pete Way & Paul Chapman.
This is on Lights Out from 1977. The whole album is fantastic.
UFO is so underrated ! They rock hard and kick ass.Moog sings like an Angel. This video steals my heart.

Somebody had to blaze the trail. UFO were pioneers in the heavy metal wilderness.
trop cool. J'avais acheté l'album en 1981 et j'adore toujours autant cette chanson. Phil Mogg je t'aime. Catherine.
Thank you Dad for getting me into this band rip dad

add a fullness to the sound.

I sure miss the good old days.
So much emotion !!!! Tears

Brings a tear to my eye. So beautiful
Saw you on my 21st birthday in Santa Cruz, Ca. 1979!!! Love y’all
Absolutely Beautiful.. Out There! 🙏
Rest in peace Paul Raymond. Devastated for your sudden departure...

yeah same time frame

exelent song, ufo is from the greatest rock bands of the ages
This was awesome. Love to Love UFO!
