That song that brings me to tears....it reminds me of 1986 when i met my HS girlfriend, we we're 16. I met her in 18&under club. Who would later become my wife. The 80's i miss you.
Never heard this song until i started doing rideshare and turned to the 80's station.. im an r&b / rap girl but i get SO excited when this comes on...I love it so much I can't explain it😩
Level 42 is a funk-jazz band, and they blend it perfectly. Funk has it's roots in R&B and if you listen to Stevie Wonder from the 70s (think Superstition) the funk is right up front instead of the background. Then come back and listen to this masterpiece again and it makes plenty of sense.
How, how can it be that a love Carved out of caring, fashioned by fate Could suffer so hard From the games played much too often? But making mistakes is a part Of life's imperfections Born of the years Is it so wrong to be human after all? Oh, drawn into the stream Of undefined illusion Those diamond dreams They can't disguise the truth That there is something about you Baby, so right I wouldn't be without you Baby, tonight If ever our love was concealed No one can say that we didn't feel A million things And a perfect dream of life Gone, fragile, but free We remain tender together If not so in love, it's not so wrong We're only human after all Oh, these changing years They add to your confusion Oh, you need to hear The time that told the truth Because there's something about you, baby, so right (and now the way you are tonight) I couldn't live without you, baby, tonight (I couldn't live without you) And now there's something about you, yeah And I couldn't live without you, tonight…
I've watched this a dozen or hundred times. Anyone else notice how the video and audio are just slightly off? GREAT song form the 80s, long live the 80s!
Something About You is my favorite 80s song. I had this huge crush on a girl I never spoke to in high school that whenever I heard this song, I thought about her.
I remember this song in the 80's on MTV, but I made deliveries to the OBX back in the early to mid 90's and the local radio station would play this at least once on my days down there and that is the core memory for me and this song. It has become part of my summer soundtrack because of it. Brings memories of youth and sun! Great tune
Mark king an awesome singer and and prob the bassist in the world plus I played this song so many times timeless classic and the 80’s decade millions of good songs but something about this song
I do remember this video played a lot on MTV. When I read on Wikipedia that the same actress played both or 3 of their girlfriends, I had to see this again just now. Either she was a different character each time, she wore something different with each guy, or maybe it was in her perspective she went through heartbreaks with each guy and felt uncertain which guy was right for her.
I WAS IN MY 30'S WHEN THIS SONG AND VIDEO CAME OUT AND IT STILL SOUND'S GOOD 25 YEAR LATER. THERE AREN'T TO MANY SONG NOW DAY'S THAT YOU CAN SING ALONG WITH. GOOD SONGS WILL STAND THE TEST OF TIME ! ROCK..........
I have to admit back when this song came out I thought it was boring. But just recently in 2024 I changed my perspective as I was on a 80’s new wave boat cruise in NYC. I had taken some molly, just as it was taking effect, the boat began to leave the dock to start the cruise & the DJ put this song on. It was perfect, the lights of Manhattan, on a perfect summer night, with the Molly hitting & this song to start the evening!
In so many ways, the 80s were super bleak. The Cold War and nuclear threat, AIDS, the sh*tty economy… but such music we had, god this tune still makes me feel so good!
Cherie Lunghi, the great British actress, who representationally plays the girlfriend of all the band members, is the epitome of beauty, poise and aplomb...
Best song of the 80s That could be a good 80s song It might suddenly appear in Just Dance 2024 (for Nintendo Switch) if Ubisoft owns the licensing with Universal Music Group Same with the following songs Cyndi Lauper - Girls Just Want to Have Fun Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams (are made of this) Mariah Carey - Fantasy Green Day - When I Come Around Thompson Twins - Hold Me Now The Beach Boys - I Get Around Bill Medley & Jennifer Warnes - I’ve Had the Time of My Life Victorious Cast Featuring Victoria Justice - (Don’t You) Forget About Me David Byrne & Ashley Tisdale - I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)
i love how 80's songs can trigger your feelings you had during that time, it's like a time machine. 80's rocked
all music can do this for someone
@@Matthew1981 so true! Depends which decade they grew up in.
Wow I thought I was the only one that felt that way.
80s are a bookmark of your life which can never be relived. All good things must come to an end.
The songs are so good, but make me so sad that those times are past us now and long gone. Is there a word for that feeling?
Still listening September 2024.
Yesssssssss ❤
Maybe the most underrated group from the 80s!
I miss the 80s. It was the best decade ever.
If you're wondering why the actress looks familiar, it's because she was Guenevere in Excalibur.

Making mistakes is a part of life's imperfections. Great lyric
One of the most epic tunes of the 80's!!!! Love it!

@@thedarksideoftheforce6658 I do. But I can't remember what I had for dinner last nite....
One of my favorite 80's songs of all time
This song always reminds me of the good ol' days.
We..."children or young adults of the 80's" were the very LUCKIEST OF ALL to have the most powerful years of MEANINGFUL MUSIC!
This is one of my fave song of the 80's!!! So refreshing, even now in 2023!!!

This song is classic and timeless.... loved the 80's- wish I could go back....

Me! Great song, Mark King is a great singer
saw Level 42 live in Liverpool a couple of years ago and they still sound good 25 years on!!!!
I still have my battered up 45 single of this song. I was 14 when this came out, and played it to DEATH!. A true happy moment in music for me.
How, how can it be that a love
Carved out of caring, fashioned by fate
Could suffer so hard
From the games played much too often?
But making mistakes is a part
Of life's imperfections
Born of the years
Is it so wrong to be human after all?
Oh, drawn into the stream
Of undefined illusion
Those diamond dreams
They can't disguise the truth
That there is something about you
Baby, so right
I wouldn't be without you
Baby, tonight
If ever our love was concealed
No one can say that we didn't feel
A million things
And a perfect dream of life
Gone, fragile, but free
We remain tender together
If not so in love, it's not so wrong
We're only human after all
Oh, these changing years
They add to your confusion
Oh, you need to hear
The time that told the truth
Because there's something about you, baby, so right (and now the way you are tonight)
I couldn't live without you, baby, tonight (I couldn't live without you)
And now there's something about you, yeah
And I couldn't live without you, tonight…
3:16 What are the words The Joker is mouthing at 3:15?
This music will never gets old.
Great song & band. Mark King is one of my favorite bass players & singers. Brings back great memories of the summer of '86.
I've watched this a dozen or hundred times. Anyone else notice how the video and audio are just slightly off? GREAT song form the 80s, long live the 80s!
Let's go in a time machine, and go back to these times.
80’s music was some of the best I love Level 42🔥🔥🔥😍😍
one of my most favourite 80's records of all time.
Wow...
I'm glad I listened to this song 100 times before I saw this music video.
I. M. HERE. LOVE LEVEL. 42. FAVE. BAND. OF. THE 80 S. 😅🎉😂❤
Still to this date one of my fav songs ever.
I was lucky to have been a teen in the 80’s…class of 89,last of our kind
I was a little child. Class of '92. Fun times of youth.
I was a pre-teen. 🙂
@@rockhero2274 Class of 89 elementary school. Class of 93 high school. 🙂
Lo mejor 👍👍 gracias por estar siempre ahí 😇🙏❤️
Love this music....brings back such memories. Ready to make some more!
I agree such a great tune...really shouldve been No 1...interesting if they released it again just now to see where it would end up in charts :)
Timeless
One of the tightest Jazz Fusion bands ever!

I love being a brit...I grew up at the right time.....
I was born in 1985 and I wish I was way earlier so I could’ve seen the whole 1980’s decade for music, culture, and partying
At least you have an appreciation for this music, I was born in 74 and the 80s was my childhood, best decade in my
Life for sure ❤️
October 1985 born
Great song, very sad to hear that guitarist Boon Gould (the one driving the car) committed suicide back in 2019.
😢
Wow
Listened to this song about 30,000 times. 2nd best video ever, behind A-Ha.

Me and Mari playing cards in Port Huron Michigan I miss the kisses and laughs we had.
80s in the extreme
The dirty guitar harmonization is so lovely
This an Head over Heels by TFF are the epitome of 80s brit pop
I am amazed how this song has survived the test of time. It is a great song, though!
Great song...scary clown!!😆
One of the top ten videos of all time, not even counting the band's "Brazil" homage.
Takes me back to a good place ❤
Here I am in 2022 this classic came to mind and I had to hear it
So catchy.
Cherie Lunghi, the great British actress, who representationally plays the girlfriend of all the band members, is the epitome of beauty, poise and aplomb...
She was also Guinevere in the movie Excalibur.
I saw them at Wembley, and they sang There's Something About You Wembley, and so I always sing that version when I hear this track.
All of these comments are over 10 years old! Whose here in 2023?!
