My mom is the blonde in this video! She wasn't supposed to be in it, she was the make-up artist. The original idea for the vid was Jon Secada walking through South Beach alone but the director thought my mom and Jon had good chemistry so he put her in the video.
One of the greats.... This takes me back to being with my sweet wife of 38 years... She past and went on to be with the Lord... But this song takes me back to us... Thank you Jon.
Jon Secada celebrated his 62nd birthday on October 4, 2023. He is a Cuban-born American singer who has won two Grammy Awards and sold 15 million records, making him one of the best-selling Latin music artists. He has written songs for Gloria Estefan, Ricky Martin and Jennifer Lopez, has toured with Luciano Pavarotti and recorded duets with Olivia Newton-John and Frank Sinatra.
My parents used to play this in the car all the time. The only thing I remembered was the chorus. Today I turned on MTV and this song came on. I almost cried. After all these years I've finally found it!!!!
Wonderful memories! ;-( I am 38 now and I miss the 90s so much. In my loneliness the music of the 90s give me hope and sometimes I wish that everything would be like in those days. It's very painful and I realized that that's not possible, but nobody can take your memories away. Never forget the 90s! The best wishes from Germany Andreas
I agree Andreas. The 90s were great. Nothing like today's miserable world. I'm in Boston, Massachusetts USA and I miss the 80s and 90s so much. Y2k as well.
So much time has passed. Glad I listened to this song back in the day. It's one of the few songs that bring out all the emotions and nostalgia right till this day, decades later
It seemed like a cheesy top 40 song at the time, but looking back 30 years later, after countless listens, this is really one of the most beautiful songs ever written.That thing that’s so great about music - the “thing” that just grabs you and burns itself into your fondest memories, - it’s what makes it such a perfect work of art. It’s classy, timeless, universally relatable, and it captures a distinct, still hopeful but weary melancholia in that ascendant chorus and the unflinching mechanical beat. There’s a transcendence to this song that just reaches you on a different level that was seldom achieved amongst the 4 minute statement of an FM radio pop song.
My grandmother had a tape back in the 90s with this song on it. And it's amazing how I can listen to it and photographically remember how everything looked at her house.
I heard this today, April 23 2021, and it took me somewhere I hadn't been in a while and I damn near cried while grocery shopping. That's real music ❤️
I can definitely agree with you. Today have have been listening to this song in English as well as in Spanish . It really hit me hard. It has taken me to my teenage years. Love this song
@@imatter4619 Between the lot of the current crop of crap they couldn't come up with a song 1/16th as good as this. Stepdaughter was listening to 50Pence (50Cent) and declared it a classic oldie... Good effing lord.
Nasci em 92, não fui do tempo dessa música, mas minha nossa, como eu amo essa música. A vida é cíclica e o sentimento dela perdura e encontra outras pessoas em seus tempos certos ❤️
Dedicated to my late husband, This was "our" song. He sang it to me all the time before we were married, Now I have to make it through the day without him.,,I was so in love with my Puerto Rican husband
My wife of 28 years passed away 8 months ago today. This song came on the radio, haven't heard it 20 years, as it played I had to pull over and cry on the steering wheel. Song was always good, really hits close now.:(
This song can't be almost 30 yrs old. That means I'm 30 years older too. Listening to this back in '92 anything was possible. Things haven't turned out as I imagined💔
I had to look for this song after all these years and finding it here send chills down my spine. It’s going to be on repeat for a really long time ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I was born in 83,the 90s were awesome as hell. I found out things for the first time in the 80s and 90s. I loved watching movies like gremlins and the breakfast Club and back to the future. And the fresh prince of bel-air.
Jon did lots of back-up vocalizing for Gloria Estefan and what great performance she provided to complement his work on Just Another Day. Enjoying their songs so many times. I always take time to stop and appreciate
I was a young man when this song hit the charts and I fell in love with the spirit and passion I felt whenever I heard these words from jon Secada. The Spanish version is even more beautiful and powerful. Now thirty years later this song has so much more meaning to me on a spiritual level than I can describe in words. I play this song and feel his pain in his words because it describes my emotions and what I'm going through just as he did when he wrote these words and shared with us through his music. This connection we feel is what makes music so special and vital because it can be very difficult to describe how we feel with emotions so overwhelming and is what a good artist and songwriter can do for someone who is broken and might feel so alone because they can't find words to describe the pain they feel. The pain, Passion and connection I have with this artist, his words and his song is so very special to me and it let's me know I am not alone and helps me to get stronger to move past the pain I feel inside.
This is the first time I've ever heard this song and i already love it and it brings me back to a good time in my life when I was young and happy (the 90's) 🙏🏻❤️
Genau 30 Jahre ist es her... Omg wie die Zeit vergeht. Kann mit dem heutigen Einheitsbrei(bis auf ein paar Ausnahmen) nichts mehr anfangen! 80/90er forever
My brother gave me this cassette tape in 1992 for my birthday- he passed away the first day of 1993 - So many memories with Jon’s music - miss you my brother - I don’t want to find another way to make it through the day without you
Great great song Masterpiece....... And john is a very thoughtful man He supports with donations and scholarships ,children with aids Scholarships for poor kids, hospital Wards, etc etc Still working and over 20 million Album sales.... The measure of the man is the imprint he leaves .
Diese Stimme ,für mich eines der schönsten Songs aus den 90'ern. Wundervoll, kaum zu glauben das dieser schon 30 Jahre alt ist. Habe in den 90'ern als Teenager diesen Song beim schlimmsten Liebeskummer meines Lebens rauf und runter gehört.
I was born in 85 so I remember these song's being played in the house. It takes me back to a certain house we lived in & my Mum always had the radio on in the kitchen. My dear Dad is always on my mind when I hear music from the 90's as he's not here anymore.

This song was No.1 when I was dating my first ever girlfriend at the age of 18. We broke up because of me being a stupid young guy, who was convinced by his supposed "best friend" at the time, that there was plenty of more fish in the sea and that she wasn't the girl for me. 🙈 After I broke up with her, my supposed "best friend" asked her out the day afterwards... a major kick in the stones for me there!!! 😱😱😱 She turned him down, thank God. But I regretted breaking up with her, and she died as a pillion passenger in a motorcycle accident shortly afterwards. 😪 I never got to tell her how much I missed her, and of how foolish I was listening to my best friend. 😪 This beautiful song always reminds me of her, and of how naive I was at the time. I am in my 40s now and a lot wiser. Thank you Jon Secada for this love song!!!.... Both good and sad memories. 👍😊 The girl at 3:15 looks a lot like her, and she reminds me of her pretty face back then. 💘
Am a 80s kid and am glad I grew up in the 1990s in Belfast northern Ireland this song reminds me singing in a car on a summers day, Take me back to the 90s Fuck this decade nobody has any creativity anymore and nobody can make amazing songs like this that has meaning and feel good Factor
Shout out to the 90s, my era and everybody who grew up to this music. Man this song will always be a hit. Jon Secada.... your a legend for this, thank you.
