back when singers actually sang. 100% pure voice, no electronics. big fan of basias'. still listening to your songs 30+ years later. cheers from the other side of the world, dominican republic ❤
;) Meanwhile, it's a song about two people in love with each other who can't be together.... Basia was surprised, in an interview, that it's such a hit at weddings, because it talks about unfulfilled, impossible love. (She is talking about a situation from her life). However, one must admit that it is a beautiful song. I enjoy listening to it very much because I love the timbre of Basia Trzetrzelewska's voice.
Nailed it! Simply angelic.. yes folks she did this LIVE no lip sync ! How many acts do you see put it all on the line by singing live? Loved her then and always will! She sings to my heart and soul!
One of the greatest live performances ever. Of all time. Can I just say, I’m in love with the bass player? Ok, that’s out of the way. Basia had a hit song and she sang it like she didn’t know it. But Johnny Carson knew it.
And hey, I was wowza. She woke me out of my half sleep. And I was like, huh? Who is this gorgeous singer? One of the most beautiful jazz singers ever. Poland or anywhere.
Beautiful performance. Basia. No doubt about it. I love a live performance and you are a sweetheart. And so is your band. And your back up singers. So sweet. You nailed it. You and your band. Basia, I love you, All these years later. And you are so amazing. Time and tide is so lovely.
I was 7 years old when this song came out. But I remember listening to it for the first time, and it brings memories of wonderful times being 7 years old, and being loved by my parents and family.🥹😢
How Basia makes music, with each of the elements, the instruments, but her vocals with the saxophone… good lord, “it so awesome”… as they say here in America…
More than 3 years of being single, still cynical, still traumatized from my previous relationship, still no plans of being in love again, and will probably never ever take a chance again. BUT THIS SONG, THIS WILL ALWAYS BE MY FAVORITE NO MATTER WHAT! THIS NEVER FAILS TO MAKE ME FEEL GOOD EVEN JUST FOR A FEW MINUTES. ❤️❤️❤️
how many who call themselves singers would be able to sing a song as difficult as melodious only BASIA, unique, inimitable! how not to love her? as soon as you hear her name you have to run and listen to a piece of her.
Fantastic as always! It's nice to see this in HD! One of my favs is her on Letterman singing Copernicus , but it's only in 480p... :^( I have cassette tapes of her from when I was in college , which was 1985-86. I recently converted them to digital, and burned them to CD's.
Is it live or is it Memorex? I can hardly tell the difference. Great quality recording to match the great performance by Basia. She seems to be right there before me. Johnny Carson had an appreciation of beauty and style. Basia fits that mold to a tee. The 80's were a time when elegance was ascendant. Since the 90's, elegance has virtually disappeared from popular culture.
I loved the Time and Tide album. I thought at the time that Basia needed more help transitioning from chest to head voice. Also her background singers are outsinging her and she has no stage presence here. None of these issues are dealbreakers, the record label isn't presenting her at her best is all.
To było 30 lat temu i ubierają ja Brytyjczycy ewentualnie Amerykanskie wpływy wiec nie oczekuj że styl ubioru i fryzury Basi będzie pasował komuś w Polsce 30 lat później 🙄😁
