www.cloud-jazz.com Uno de los maravillosos temas que interpreta Sting en Leaving Las Vegas... My One and Only Love, con fotografías de la película. Un pequeño homenaje a esta película y su banda sonora.
I lost my wife 2yrs ago. She loved me, I loved her unforgettable heart and beauty. We ran away at 16 from Alsace,France to marry& come to the USA.God I miss her.
I love this song but it’s tears me up. My ex was alcoholic, I did all I could. I was there in good times and bad. We saw this movie before I knew he had a worse drinking problem that I could have imagined. We met and as corny as it is, love at first sight. We didn’t live together before the wedding. I wish I had. He hid his drinking really well. He drank alone out of a bag, not home . I tried to support him and loved him but hated the disease. Before our marriage imploded- he played this song for me and we danced. He played it a lot for a few months. Then boom, dui- thankfully he didn’t hurt anyone- and boom- he was talking to a female coworker. She really went after him. I was scared humiliated angry. He ran from the law. Went to Florida- came back- I was done- he tried with music again- nope. I started divorce paperwork. He left again for Florida- living with his coworker in Florida! But wanted to come back to me and didn’t want to sign the divorce paperwork. I said let me go. The anger fueled me to get through the period. He signed the decree. It’s been 12 years and I keep hearing this song, and I feel like I’m being watched. I don’t have contact, I don’t look on Facebook. He married this thing to get health insurance. His cousin told me. His cousins are great- they told me to save myself years ago. They loved us but they didn’t want me getting hurt and they were upset by him. Ex was never a player or looked at other women. The question I wonder.., is he sober now. People who have been in my situation understand. I’m writing to no one. It helps to blurt this out to strangers or to a place where no one will read bc this post is like 8 years old. Thanks RU-vid for my therapy session ❤️. Lastly don’t stay with a person because you are afraid to be alone. You are alone with them and it’s awful right? You can miss the person and love the songs- alone and happy. Or try again for love ❤️
thank you for sharing. i went through a similar situation. at the end of the day, do you sacrifice your sanity and dignity and stay? or do you pack up what's left and leave? it's a tough decision but we know what must be done.
SO SORRY. I WENT THROUGH THE SAME EXPERIENCE. TEARS COME TO MY EYES WHEN I LISTEN TO THIS BEAUTIFUL SONG. I STILL LOVE MY HUSBAND, ALWAYS WILL LOVE HIM. HE IS IN HEAVEN IN PEACE! UNFORTUNATELY I CAN'T REPLACE HIM. TAKE CARE!! ❤
@@marianchacon5289 I’m so sorry, I hope you are feeling better but I know each day is different, some good some bad. D was my everything, but he also was a burden. I got very ill 2 years after married. I had major surgery and he showed up drunk. I did everything I could to help. But he couldn’t stop fully. He would be sober for weeks or I didn’t know he was drunk. I hid so much from everyone except my mom and 2 friends. But when he had 2 dui in 2 weeks and I found out he was talking to that thing, I was defeated. But anger and a man he met in rehab kept me going. It’s been 14 years and I will think of him but I don’t miss him. I miss the part of him when sober and caring. It’s hard to hear some of the songs but I still love the melody. I am at peace not being with anyone else and probably won’t. I work a lot and I help my family. I take care of myself and always look my best, I feel better when I am dressed up. It’s my mask lol. Thanks for anyone who shared. Music is such a strong resource and can help or heal.
This movie has managed to let me feel a certain new level of sadness I never thought I was capable of. I am grateful, as this made me feel more human. It makes me second guess my impressions when I see someone down with luck and a prayer. Makes me say a prayer for them.
yep. gives u a perspective u didn’t know u needed. the loneliness that so many may be feeling without ever letting it be shown on the surface. some can mask it nd keep it concealed, others wear it on their sleeve. this movie definitely helps you to remember to keep this in mind of all people. prayer n kindness goes such a long way. some don’t get either.
Leaving Las Vegas is definitely one of my top 10 favorite films of all time. It's not a movie I would want my kids to watch because it's dark and they didn't grow up in the 90's they wouldn't understand.
Probably Nic Cage's best movie, Shue was good in it as well, good movie over all, this song's the right cherry on the cake to it's tone, lost souls finding love in the most unlikely ways, sad, tragic but true
I listen to this song whenever I take the last train to my home after hard works at office. Though there's no warm and tender lips.. this piece soothes me from my ear to heart.
I lost my husband two years ago and I remember this film then I played this song and thought it was the right one for me as I’m missing my husband after marriage of 56 years so hard without him this is a great love song love it
Yeah, I was blown away by how great Sting covers this'n, and I think Sting is great, but not personally one of my favorites or go to when I listen to music, but he's gained some interest from me just from this song, also I know that I have nostalgic memories around the time of watching this movie, though I recognize the skill, range, and even most of the range of genres of music that he's capable of creating beauty in are extremely impressive, and I now have a new appreciation for him. 👍
I keep replaying scenes of this masterpiece of a movie weekly, daily at times..what a script ,what a cast, what an acting, what à sound track...emotion grabs me each time...
I send this beautiful rendition of "My one and only love" in Memoriam to my lovely wife who was taken from me recently.........she was such a beautiful, warm, wonderful woman........."there will never be another you"
I am so sorry for your loss. As a musician, this is the song for my wife. I hope..... no, I know you will find you will find future happiness, as will she when I am gone. Best wishes!
I think my favorite part about this soundtrack is that it sounds exactly like what I imagine Las Vegas in the 90s to sound like. I've seen some people say this is cheesy, but these vocals sound like a rundown singer stuck in Vegas. It's great.
You imagine this is what Vegas in the 90s sounded like? You're saying it as if it was some on-the-point retro stuff, like That 70s show, or something. Damn it, I feel old.
This is one of the best Love Songs I've ever heard. There is something very rare about this song. The Lyrics just take you away into a Trance. I can listen to this all night with a quiet drink with myself. I love that warm Bass and the crackling of fire in the background. I wish I had a lovely woman to share this song with, all I want is a cuddle and a snuggle. Simple things are hard to find unfortunately. What a lovely song this is. Leaving Las Vegas the Film just makes me cry. The Film and Songs compliment eachother.
yah bro. despite the fact that he’s literally dying, u almost find urself feeling jealous of him because you know he felt some of the purest form of love one could have the chance to feel in this life here on earth.. not a feeling all of us lads (n gals) are fortunate enough to feel. he knew she was his angel. he went out with a queen.. and he saved her to some degree too. stuff of dreams tbh
"The very thought makes my heart sing, like an April breeze, on the wings of Spring And you appear in all your splendor, my one and only Love." So f-ing beautiful :D
I remember playing this song countless of times after Karin left me on March 1. It rained for two months straight and rivers of regret flowed down my cheeks. I still love Karin and want to hold her heart. Just like the movie, these tragedies in love devour as all...
When we saw this movie, a delas things we fall in love was this song ... is to love again without being afraid of what people say ... Sting, for the lighting you got ... thanks from Chile.
It's been a year since she shattered my soul. The song is still great. But now I realize she doesnt care if I live or die. I wish everyone here to have happy love lives forever...
Funny how love can make your heart sing or ache with equal passion. But the very thought of my one and only love makes every moment together worth it. May you find that kind of love.
" My One And Only love was composer Guy Wood and Lyricist Robert Mellin in 1947. In loving Memory Of Sonia Francisca De La Cruz 1972 - 2020, she died of ovarian cancer at the age 46. I dedicate this song in her memory. My True One Only Love!!
Great great song and great rendition by a rock singer--but wait--great great piano accompaniment! Loved the movie, too, it being a classic self destruction movie, reminding me of "Barfly" with Mickey Rourke and Faye Dunaway. Thanks beaucoup!
One of the saddest, most moving love stories ever. It takes some people days to get over this film's tragic impact, especially those of us who've found ourselves in a similar situation at some point in our lives. Great Sting cover version and a beautifully panned and zoomed YT montage of some great stills.
Indescriptibles sentimientos me provoca esta melodía, parece que entendiera lo que siento, dulce voz, bello piano, demasiados recuerdos.... me veo en una silla mecedora con mis cabellos color plata, en la tranquilidad de la vejez, pensando que pase mi vida esperando al hombre de los zapatos brillantes, lo que podría decir es que siempre fui fiel en la espera y que en más de una vez saco sonrisas de momentos que no existieron, que hubieron bailes no bailados, sueños nunca realizados. Siempre espere por el amor .Esta melodía hace que escriba estas frases.
this is the song of the first dance with my husband on our wedding day. He is my one and only love! After three years being married we still dance to this song and we still look into each other's eyes with the same passion, desire and deep love than on our first date. so much in love with him!
...the lyrics and haunting melody are what touches my soul...because my precious husband (of 29 years) just sent this song to me...in an e-mail...thank you, my love...
Glad I searched for this one, AGAIN and RU-vid Never fails me, so I found this once more..... what a dreamy song, and Sting, glad he won the Oscar for this really fabulous Movie Soundtrack!! Thanks for Posting- Marcie B.
dennis ellzey My wife will always be my one and only love. God took. her at 45. Sinatras version was very special to us.We both had tears in our eyes watching Leaving LasVegas.
THis song is magic makes me smile then cry and feel hos special my true love my wife is in my life 26 years later the love is greater still love Sting's voice wow :)
I hope cage won an Oscar for this movie..it was the highlight of his career...hes never topped this.. You just know, he was an alcoholic in life...he knew this role intimately. Oh, and Sting is an international treasure.
My late father in law loved Sting and the movie leaving Las Vegas. He loved it so much that he aspired to be the nick cage character in real life. I think he achieved it, unfortunately.
My dad although prejudice as ever loved Sting never asked us to turn the volume down ....only the police records were shouted at lol. Dad's gone one thing I don't have to hear is turn it off!!!! I lied I do wish I can hear him say that for just one day
@@sspiegelv7318 Thank you bro. If Karin doesn't come back to me. I will stay single until death. I refuse to let anyone else devastate me. I am the most broken in my life right now. I know exactly how you feel. Fuck.
Another beautiful version is Green Vomit's 2018's version. I realize that the band's name might turn some people off but it really is a magnificent rendition.
I have heard many versions of this song. all of the greats. Sinatra, Hartman, Vaughan, Ella...., but this is the only version that breaks my heart and makes me cry. EVERY TIME. Cages' portrayal of the heroic alcoholic Ben is one of the greatest performances of all time. Ben's commitment to resisting THE WILL and the destruction of the self, with the full understanding of the worthlessness of life is heart rending. I've longed for that kind of courage all of my life. I'm still hopeful that one day I will find it.
