Saw him 96...my souk still aches...most beautiful voice I've ever felt..not heard. Gift straight from heaven. Still can't get through this song without crying..❤
I turned 40 in 1992 and this song came along to take me away to dream land. Why didn't Jon make more beautiful music? It's 2024 and this song still gives me goose bumps.
My God this is so good, I love everybody on that stage, they all gave so much passion into this performance, the drummers, the backing singers, the keyboard players, they guitatists and Jon, they were all perfect, I wish I was there.
Seriously amazing and I thought the exact same...just so much damn passion and feeling from everyone!!! The audience knew they witnessed something special that night
the bg vocalists and that dude in the center. I love them. you can see them all on youtube in different performances of these songs in 1992 / 1993 around the world
So I was looking for a live performance of this song because he give be goosebumps on the actual recording. But I was NOT expecting all this. I’m in tears due to his vocal perfection! When someone sings passionately and in perfect pitch and tone I get goosebumps or tears. Jon is TRULY a legend! Wow! Must also say the Emilio Estafan MURDERED the production! And Gloria Estafan was killing that background vocal in the recording!!
Yup! He started off as Gloria Estefan’s background singer and co-writer. She encouraged him to go solo, which he did. Gloria sang background on this track on the album version.
I mean this is just a flawless performance. You can see and feel that Jon Secada is at the absolute top of his game here. There is something very endearing about this youthful arrogance. You don't come to a late night show and put in such an incredible performance on an improvised stage if you are not somewhat full of yourself. Love it! ❤❤❤Background singers and band were also great here. Hope that somebody will someday upload a higher quality version of this performance.👃
Because he is Afrolatino. Do you realize the slaves ships had different stops throughout the continent? Also the slaves treaties were made by colonialists which include the Spaniards.
Stonehaven tht we all come from the background and as a creole woman most black people have great voices. I know him personally because he interpreted one of my mom’ relatives song which is titled “Por amor” (by Rafael Solano). He has a beautiful tone, vibratto.
George Michael, Elton John, Michael Jackson, Phil Collins... So many great pop singers on 80s and 90s. O believe that Bruno Mars is the only real male talent on pop music today.
Just remember that Jon would’ve remained as a backup singer for Gloria Estefan if she didn’t encourage him to step out on his own. She saw talent and wanted him to embark on his own stardom!
i think this is the epitome of good song writing. The entire fuckin band is actually enjoying their own song. As a guitarist i always wished to be able to be involved in such amazing music.
Hello from Folsom, CA in July 15, 2023...I was super young in 1992 and now a grandma and still loves this song. One of my faves back then with Gloria Estefan's "Don't Wanna Lose You".
Honest if it wasn't for the little ad-libbed extras here and there I'd have said this was an alternative studio version! He's got an absolutely sublime voice!
I heard this song when I was 11. I loved it then and I still love it now over 20 yrs later. Props to the lady drummer in the background too! I've never seen that kind of flash from any female drummer in the 90's. She may have been the first or at the very least ahead of her time 🏆🥁
I like all sorts of music but I miss music being mainstream like this. This is music and man can he sing. Hell of a bass player too. Incredible talent, all of them.
Wow... I found this song accidentally after about 20 years since I possibly heard it last time. Definitely didn't listen to it 10 times at least in a row. 😅 I am blown away . What a performance.. wish we could bring back real music
I don't know how I missed this VHS capture, but I sure do enjoy it. Jon looks and sounds fantastic, and its very rare to see Miguel Morejon on keyboards, the co-writer of this epic pop hit. I also see my sister-friend, Miriam Mandelkern-Sandler on background vocals. Thank you for uploading!
@@caiooliveira2338, the drummer is Tommy McWilliams, and I can't see the guitarist or bass player very well. I'll watch it a few more times and see if I can figure out who they are. Tommy is awesome, a writer, music director as well as an awesome drummer. Check him out on youtube, FB & Instagram.
@@caiooliveira2338 I'll check the CD credits from that album. His live band members might be listed. That you for the reply about Scott. I think Jon used to call him "Scott - don't be silly Shapiro."
Who’s listening in 2024? 32 years later.
I am!!!
Best believe I Am
Dropped this banger on works factory Spotify yesterday and walked off to rapturous applause from fully grown men.
This really was must see tv nbc huh secada on jay leno huh

This is a great singer. So many memories when I hear that song!
That dude had some serious pipes!!
Who's appreciating this still in 2021? This song just gives you that particular feeling you cannot describe.

Jesus, he killed this live.... Let's have no thumbs down for this one!!!!!
Jon's voice is absolutely incredible and on point. He's wonderful.
The bassist got his volume up higher than backing vocals - slap that!! What a song 👌🏼
If you ever think you're giving it 100%... check with Jon Secada first! LEGEND.
3:08 hear this high note, F#5, great tenor, thanks Jon!🎼🎶🎵
Great bass action
Out of this world :)
HAHAHAHA
It's quite high up in the mix, isn't it?!?!
Saw him 96...my souk still aches...most beautiful voice I've ever felt..not heard. Gift straight from heaven. Still can't get through this song without crying..❤
I turned 40 in 1992 and this song came along to take me away to dream land. Why didn't Jon make more beautiful music? It's 2024 and this song still gives me goose bumps.
Beautiful. I wish people still sounded like this
Gives me goosebumps
Now we have the weeknd, Charlie Puth and the Jonas Brothers... ugh 🤢
HE is really good live. His voice didn't skip a beat.
When someone knows how to sing...then he knows. Without playback,without other's helping. Amazing Jon!
Unbelievably hard song to sing and he performs it literally better than the original recording...wow...
My God this is so good, I love everybody on that stage, they all gave so much passion into this performance, the drummers, the backing singers, the keyboard players, they guitatists and Jon, they were all perfect, I wish I was there.

When you say "murdered"?? Because in British English we would consider that negative - even when used in slang!
It's nice to hear another grown man say exactly what you said in your comment.
@@DistantCousin
I guess they mean 'killed' it! 😂
Mr John Secada certainly did too, impeccable live performance!
@@DistantCousinwow. Clearly you’re a female
probably the best male vocal performance of all time
The Power Of God in his voice is so effortless. Blown away!!
NO MATTER WHAT LIVE I HEAR JON SING THIS SONG IT'S FLAWLESS AND BEAUTIFUL
That bass guy is killing it too 😊
He's a song writer for gloria estefan as well. 2023. fuckin amazing stuff.
Yup! He started off as Gloria Estefan’s background singer and co-writer. She encouraged him to go solo, which he did. Gloria sang background on this track on the album version.
@@roglo06 Thats really cool. So little covers on utube for this song. Only says how difficult it is to pull it off.
Can't argue with THAT voice! Dude killed it!
Instant hit. Immediately classic. It has a gospel feel to it even.
Such a great talent and he was so underrated. He started out with the Miami Sound Machine and went solo and I think he's got a amazing voice

Wow, he sounds incredible back when the song first came out. He gives it his all for sure. Definitely a hard song to sing!

Not for him we guessed 😄
@@AnGeLoUs07
Wha... what?
@@AnGeLoUs07 nobody cares bro just listen to the song
1st time i hear ds song way back 1st year HS 1994
That was unbelievable. Jon Secada has the voice of an angel. Absolutely wonderful.❤
Why don’t we have male singers like this anymore. You know that can actually sing
George Michael, Elton John, Michael Jackson, Phil Collins... So many great pop singers on 80s and 90s. O believe that Bruno Mars is the only real male talent on pop music today.

Omg that Damn Slap Bass 😱😱😱👍👍👍 😎 And What a Voice 🙂👏
Something about his gentle eyes while he sings! His voice never ages its amazing.
This guy can SING! He's one of the best. I love this song
Let’s bring it back all ohhhhhhh the golden days

Outstanding Performer and Song !!!!!❤️🐾🎼🎸
Gave me goosebumps in 1990's and still gives me goosebumps in 2021
Flawless!!!! What a voice, made it look easy.
Honest if it wasn't for the little ad-libbed extras here and there I'd have said this was an alternative studio version! He's got an absolutely sublime voice!
Listen to him just GIVE IT... when Music made YOU Dance & Singers SANG
What a powerhouse of a voice..dude makes you feel it in your core.
Back then, it didn’t matter how you looked, it was about the talent! Don’t get it twisted though, Jon Secada had the looks and talent! Just amazing!
Riiiiight, it didnt matter how good you looked???? Especially in pop😅😅😅
Amazing vocal skills
Jon is a legend!
Amazing. I feel all of those feelings. I know the pain of loss which makes him sing that way.
that middle backup singer is AWESOME!!!! he's SO into it!
What a fucking voice
I heard this song when I was 11. I loved it then and I still love it now over 20 yrs later. Props to the lady drummer in the background too! I've never seen that kind of flash from any female drummer in the 90's. She may have been the first or at the very least ahead of her time 🏆🥁
I couldn't agree more! That chick is deadly drummer! I wonder what other music she's done?!?! Anybody have a name for her???
@@sheldonkaduhr296 the drummer is a man
@@thomasluedke5635 do we know his name?
Underrated latino Artists.
2023 haven't heard this song in years. still amazing
The slap bass sounds amazing 🥰
Straight fire!
Amazing voice!! I was 10 years old when that song came out!!! Brings back memories from my childhood...
I was 14, I loved it then and somehow even more now! One of the all time great songs!
I was 10 as well and definitely have great memories of this song playing
He is really singing!!!!! BRAVO
Damn. What an insanely powerful voice.
2024! Timeless performance - amazing.
Killer performance... GREAT voice...

Me too. I can't stop listening to it over and over. I want to enjoy every single note Jon sings. His voice is absolutely beautiful.❤❤
One of my most favourite songs. Brings back great memories. What an amazing performance!
I always thought he had a very powerful commanding voice. An absolutely amazing singer. I love this song 🎶
Crazily powerful yet somehow soft of edge... amazing!
The most important thing any new artist can do is learn from the legends of our past. 🙏🏼💯
So glad I found a live performance of this song. Just a great vocalist
He rocked this song!!!!!
2022 and still mesmerizing.
Ahh the days when singers had naturally special voices and used them live to share their talent.
What a singer. Wish he had more hits..
Still loving this song and his voice many years later! Absolutely stunning!
Wow very high note great
This song is very of it’s time
A true Cuban American hero - he won two Grammys and is my girlfriends all time favorite recording artist 💁🏻♂️
The bass is going OFF!🔥🔥🔥
Slapping it like it owes him money 😉
And hats off to the bassist 💪👏
No auto tuning required.
Jon Secada is one of the best male vocalists ever! I can’t think of any guy out there now who can match his ability! Awesome thanks for posting
Trey Lorenz
Brian from Color me Badd
George Michael
then (John Secada), now (bruno mars)... both sexy, and great.
@@myapadie1251
John Secada is light-years ahead of that funny little Martian!
John Farnham is technically a better singer but Jon Farnham has a better tone and stronger voice. To me this 2 are the best male vocalist.
In music. We need to BRING back Jon and the real talent that was music. Amazing 🤩 performance. 2:17 giving no F. Went in for the kill.
Wow they lit that stage on fire!!!! Amazing 👏 !!!!I dont think anyone is the audience was prepared for that
Pure Talent
Breath taking performance !!!
2.33 when he hits that note that is fucking powerful were did real soul go in the world
I remember 1992 i was getting ready for work when this came on. I sat down and was glued to the set.
That man's voice ♥️
I love this clip so much.
Been watching a d rewatching this masterpiece.
Dude went so hard ok this at Leno 😍😍😍
Damn good. Even though recorded on VHS, best version by him. Still loving it in 2020! Thanks for posting!
One of my favorite songs ever!!! ❤️
Masterclass
2024 bring back this kind of music
Pipes of a legend
Wish there was a better copy of this performance. Really good.
What a great tune and performance.
A melhor performance desta música já vista!!!!
Sem dúvida!!!

Do you know the names of the guys in Bass, Guitar and the amazing drummer?

@@BeeFlannel thank you :D
@@BeeFlannel the guitar guy is Scott Shapiro. But i dont know yet who are de Bass guy.

Amazing song 👌
Gloria Estefan’s protégé. One of the very best male singers I have ever heard. Great songwriter, too.
Ive loved him since I was a kid in the 90's. He's so freaking beautiful... Gives me chills
