I called my local radio station and requested this song back in 1999 with an on air proposal to my high school sweetheart 22 years later we still dance in the kitchen to this song
I remember Amanda Marshall from Whitney Houstons concert in Helsinki Finland. The year was 2000. She was before the head artist and i really enjoyd Amandas music. The first time i heard her and it was amazing.
@@heidisantala7405We first heard her supporting Whitney in Birmingham, England, must have been the same tour. Can still remmeber hearing this for the first time live!
She made it big in Canada just before Britney Spears and the crop top teenagers singing bouncy pop music arrived. Rosie O’Donnell and Elton John tried to push her, but kids weren’t listening to people in their 40s and 50s. So much of the 90s were about the video and if you weren’t in a tiny outfit shaking your ass, you probably weren’t making it out of the 90s in America. Canada had a lot of great young female artists in the late 90s and very few made it outside of this country because they weren’t underage girls selling sex hard. Before she got screwed over by her label, Amanda dabbled in more hip hop/r&b in the very early 2000s with slightly more “edgy” videos, but I don’t think it worked for her. Unfortunately, having a great voice during that time wasn’t really arbitrary, but being young and showing your stomach mattered more if you were female. Amanda was already pushing 30 and more about the music, which wasn’t bubblegum pop, and that hurt her career. Then her record company screwed her. Game, set, match.
Absolutely love this song. Saw her in concert at the NAC a few months back. She got standing ovations after this song and Beautiful Goodbye. I have never been in the presence of a voice that powerful. I was moved to tears during both those songs.
I confess that it has been a long long time since I listened to this amazing singer songwriter. Suddenly, I began listening and I couldn't stop. I kept remembering every song and I would say, yeah that's my favorite one and then I would hear another one and I would say, no wait, that's my favorite. Hey, it's nearly impossible to choose just one from the many great songs. Couldn't wait to get home to see if she had a You Tube Channel. Thank you for the many pleasures, young lady!
It’s almost been 20 years since her the release of her last album Everybody’s Got A Story and I’m still in love with Amanda Marshall her voice is so powerful
Missed you Amanda! Your music was always a revelation but also a comfort. Your passion, talent and creativity are hardly matched by anyone, especially during these strange days we live in. I've always felt and saw your music as a soulful waystation, a refuge located among the different epochs we transit through in our lives. Bless you and yours! Be well always and I hope to hear much more from you. It's time!
O my - I've been a big fan of this artist since 1996. She's one of the best there is with songs that have meaning! If you ever read this - well done, thank you for inspiring me, so many notes to follow repeatedly with you. Laura - Namibia
Still after all those years a masterpiece I don't know what I was thinking 'Til I was thinking of you I don't remember a thing before I opened my eyes And you came into view I don't know what I was doing When there was nothing to do Must have been waiting for some one, baby Now I can see, I was waiting for you I'd give up my sight just to see you I'd beg I would borrow and steal I'd cut off my hands just to touch you And tear out my heart so you'd know how I feel There's nowhere I wouldn't follow There's nothing I wouldn't do 'Cause I wouldn't want to be me If I didn't have you Driving myself to distraction Until you got in my way I was just whistling Dixie 'til you struck up the band And they started to play I don't know how I was living Until you came into my life I always knew there was something wrong Then you came along Baby, you made it right I'd give up my sight just to see you I'd beg I would borrow and steal I'd cut off my hands just to touch you And tear out my heart so you'd know how I feel There's nowhere I wouldn't follow There's nothing I wouldn't do 'Cause I wouldn't want to be me If I didn't have you I was alone in the silence 'Til I was hearing your voice I couldn't see my way clear until you parted the clouds And you gave me a choice I couldn't pick up the pieces 'Til I was falling apart I didn't know I was bleeding 'Til your love fixed this hole baby, here in my heart I'd give up my sight just to see you I'd beg I would borrow and steal I'd cut off my hands just to feel you And tear out my heart so you'd know how I feel There's nowhere I wouldn't follow There's no place that I'd rather be This life without you would be hollow This love is a gift and you gave it to me All that I am, you have made me And baby, I know that's it's true I'd give it all up in a heartbeat Just to spend every moment with you There's no place I wouldn't follow There's nothing that I wouldn't do 'Cause I wouldn't want to be me If I didn't have you
This song says everything I can ever say about how i feel for my love...... Imho ( i might be a little biased lol being canadian) one of the most beautiful songs ever written 💑❤❤
When I hear the intro to this song (la de da de da da da da...) I am reminded how much I love what follows; a young woman expressing a true love connection 💕 So glad that Amanda is back on tour.
I was swept away by this Amazing Artist. There has been no one to even come close to capturing my heart as she did. Love you Amanda. Forever. Don’t forget the Red Rose. 🌹
For some reason this was song was in the back of my head (it was probably the whistling at the beginning lol) & I kept trying to find this song because I haven’t heard this on the radio for a while 😅
Loved her then ..can't wait to hear her new album 2024.... Love her story ..touring with. Whitney.Huston. and she came in stage whispered in warm. Damn I love that. Song!!!!
So underrated. I grew up listening to you all my life and now I’m 29 and this is my wedding song next year ❤️ come back to Toronto! I need to see you sing again 😊
So nice to hear a more thoughtful song of her. Both is cool from her: the rock-songs and the soft ballads. Like her very much! Greetings from Germany 💙🕉️
Oh Amanda, this song is a true masterpiece! (that one from Asia also!) 😉 So much emotions here, it tears me apart! The lyrics, the music, your voice! After all these years, i love your music SO SO MUCH! It never get‘s old or boring! Please made another pop/rock album like your first ones. 😉 The poster from „Tuesday‘s Child“ hangs right in my music room. (i was working at that time in a big record store) Your both first albums are true masterpieces! Big thanks for that songs - still the soundtrack of my life! Many greetings from Austria!
Amazing vocalist..she can sing to me anytime. Your voice makes me drift away to a place that everybody needs to go to. Beautiful..i have 2 cds of Amanda. My favorite female vocalist.
She had 3 cd's and just released a new album a few weeks ago. Well worth it to get the whole collection! We just drove 8 hrs from the US to go see her in Toronto; touring to support the new CD "Heavy Lifting". Great new songs!
Anyone here from Humans of New York? This has been a favourite of mine for years x
Me!!!
Yes. Listened to her music all through the 90’s. Love that this beautiful story brought me back to her. x
Me !!! 😂😂 I just finished reading the post and come to check this
Me. Came to check it out after reading the story.
sir yes sir
I don’t know why this woman is not a global superstar!
I called my local radio station and requested this song back in 1999 with an on air proposal to my high school sweetheart 22 years later we still dance in the kitchen to this song
Thanks for sharing such a special memory ... :-)
I hope you have many many more happy years together

One of the best voices ever!!! Why was she not huge in the US??!
Americans only like rap and hip hop.

This is my song to my wife.i was in a dark place in my life but she saved me as chessey as it sounds but its the thruth.❤
This lady......man she is so good, underrated for sure.
👍️ from JAPAN
She sang this last Friday in Toronto. I was bawling and singing my heart out.
It's easy to tell when someone is confronted by the love and power of God. You'll never be the same again.
😉🕯️🙏🕊️
Absolutely love this song. Saw her in concert at the NAC a few months back. She got standing ovations after this song and Beautiful Goodbye. I have never been in the presence of a voice that powerful. I was moved to tears during both those songs.
Beautiful music with profound lyrics! What a great woman!

Ich höre noch UA-cam radio da hört man solche musik die Kids von heute haben solche tolle musik verpasst
welcome back amanda 2024
Amanda Marshall is what a true music artist is. So good, so unseen.
SUCH an AMAZING song. And her vocals just bring it to life! Probably one of the most romantic, heart-felt songs I've ever heard.
Just bought tickets for her concert tour. Going to introduce my daughter to her music.
Your daughter has a great parent.
Une des plus belles chansons que j'ai jamais entendu. Un talent immense et cette voix, sublimissime. Amanda Marshall une vraie artiste
Missed you Amanda! Your music was always a revelation but also a comfort. Your passion, talent and creativity are hardly matched by anyone, especially during these strange days we live in. I've always felt and saw your music as a soulful waystation, a refuge located among the different epochs we transit through in our lives. Bless you and yours!

Saw her live in YVR 2023 with my beautiful friend 😍 we were blown away ! She rock's amazing concert!❤ 🎉
My wedding song.
Amanda is very Powerful
Where is she!!!?? I miss her voice in radio or anywhere. Please come back Amanda!
Yeah, Amanda where are you? Come back.... 💜
On the verge of tears through the whole song till you hit that note in the last chorus. Then the levee breaks.
Canadians always underrated but always the best.
Not all of them. Celine Dion for example.
What an amazing voice, that a lot of people have never heard.
This is the best love song ever written
Welcome Back Amanda We Missed You!

Still after all those years a masterpiece
I don't know what I was thinking
'Til I was thinking of you
I don't remember a thing before I opened my eyes
And you came into view
I don't know what I was doing
When there was nothing to do
Must have been waiting for some one, baby
Now I can see, I was waiting for you
I'd give up my sight just to see you
I'd beg I would borrow and steal
I'd cut off my hands just to touch you
And tear out my heart so you'd know how I feel
There's nowhere I wouldn't follow
There's nothing I wouldn't do
'Cause I wouldn't want to be me
If I didn't have you
Driving myself to distraction
Until you got in my way
I was just whistling Dixie 'til you struck up the band
And they started to play
I don't know how I was living
Until you came into my life
I always knew there was something wrong
Then you came along
Baby, you made it right
I'd give up my sight just to see you
I'd beg I would borrow and steal
I'd cut off my hands just to touch you
And tear out my heart so you'd know how I feel
There's nowhere I wouldn't follow
There's nothing I wouldn't do
'Cause I wouldn't want to be me
If I didn't have you
I was alone in the silence
'Til I was hearing your voice
I couldn't see my way clear until you parted the clouds
And you gave me a choice
I couldn't pick up the pieces
'Til I was falling apart
I didn't know I was bleeding
'Til your love fixed this hole baby, here in my heart
I'd give up my sight just to see you
I'd beg I would borrow and steal
I'd cut off my hands just to feel you
And tear out my heart so you'd know how I feel
There's nowhere I wouldn't follow
There's no place that I'd rather be
This life without you would be hollow
This love is a gift and you gave it to me
All that I am, you have made me
And baby, I know that's it's true
I'd give it all up in a heartbeat
Just to spend every moment with you
There's no place I wouldn't follow
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
'Cause I wouldn't want to be me
If I didn't have you
Beautiful song!
One of the greatest artist in my opinion
Amazing vocalist..you are my favorite female singer. When im feeling lost about loosing someone special, she is my saviour. Love you Amanda Marshall

For some reason this was song was in the back of my head (it was probably the whistling at the beginning lol) & I kept trying to find this song because I haven’t heard this on the radio for a while 😅
I absolutely love your vocal range. This is on my favourite songs list 😊.
This brings back a flood of memories that have never faded .....
