96-97 seemed like a peaceful time in my life. No bills to worry about (lol) , I just simply watched the Spice Girls, Mark Owen and Gary barlow on MTV, Taking a notebook and writing down songs in MTV countdowns.
She heard a voice from so far away It told her her mother had gone away In the next room down the corridor Her baby started to cry Her whole life had just fell apart There was nothing then the hurting started In her heavy head on her knees she prayed could somebody help her Clementine It was never meant to be this way It was never meant to be this way Clementine It was never meant to be this way it was never meant to be this way If only I'd told you yesterday Got in her car and she sped away Into the floodlit street down by your way As the sun rose by the morning dew Well she returned in such a state Her baby knew not what was going on But it could tell from her tears that something was wrong with mum Desperation let out its final scream But our clementine didn't hear a damn thing [REPEAT CHORUS] Into the mirror she stared at herself Asked is that my life is that what I'm here for Her reflection chose not to respond As she froze to the spot like a cold hard statue And bathed in her tears she said her time was through
I absolutely love this song! I recently saw Take That at Leeds Direct Arena (18/04/24) and Mark Owen sang "Clementine" solo during the show. I've never stopped playing it since. Mark was always my favourite ❤
It was my high school years, the golden years '95-'98. White and grey school uniform, basketball at school, MTV, night city car race, telephone, food and stuffs are cheaper then and off course my sweetheart girlfriend Miss that years
Fantastic song '97 when most of boys bands were already dismembered, Robbie, Gaz and Mark were doing their best to show their own talent. Beautiful song from Mark!
Take that были моей любимой группой в 90-х. Как здорово, что ребята до сих пор на сцене в такой отличной форме. Их альбомы были блестящими в 90-х и сейчас их трэки звучат супер классно! И Марк это просто чудо! Красивый и талантливый музыкант с прекрасным чувством юмора и кажется добрейший человек по жизни.

Nostalgic.....90's boyband era was the best. Take That was the first ever boyband I followed and loved. Especially this guy, just love his music. Well, I just simply love Markie then and till now. An avid fan here❤️
90's were so special to me. I was young and full of hopes to be the rock star, was writing my own songs. Unfortunately I've missed my chance, but the memories of the time will always be warming my heart.
wHY OH why he didnt made it as a solo singer???? He had so good and meaningfool songs thats why!!!!!!......I will always love him....... ;*** his solo songs it was so good and diferend.......like I am what I am......made me so strong in some point off my life....Thank You Mark ;****Love You ;***
Mark, I especially flew from Pakistan to Dubai in November 2017 to see you and the boys live. It was the best thing I could have ever done to see you just a few feet away performing. Please give me a shout out! I have grown up listening to you and Take That. Your album Green Man has always been very close to my heart. Much love from Pakistan.
No había oído esta canción en veinte años... No recordaba que era tan melódica en estilo gringo, no parece de un cantante inglés y él no era tan guapo como lo recordaba. Ajustando memoria.
This song still plays in my mind once in a while and i thought of checking this song now! Brings me back to my highschool days when MTV was everything!
I bought this CD while transferring through Heathrow on my way home to Los Angeles from Kuwait in December 1996. I also bought the Spice Girls' CD. People thought I was crazy when I told them the Spice Girls were going to be a "thing." HA! I won!
Moments ago (this song was a quiz answer) I was reminded of this TERRIFIC song. Why is it so underrated!! I wonder if Mark sings this song in concert with Take That? If not..he should. !!
Hi mowillis2828, I just saw Take That in concert at Leeds Direct Arena on Thursday evening (18th April 2024) and Mark gave a solo performance of Clementine during the show. It was as good as I remembered and now I can't stop playing it here on RU-vid. Greetings to a fellow Mark Owen fan 😊
Didn't realise this song was about a girl committing suicide until I saw Mark doing an interview and explaining it..what a brilliant pop record though..his solo career has been brilliant!
