Survivor - The Search Is Over (Video) 

2024 anyone?

this is our love story. my husband was single until he was 59. i suffered trauma from a previous husband. he says he waited all those years for me. i am so blessed.

Had my son in '87, and because I wasn't in a place to be a hood father, his mother & I placed him for adoption. My girlfriend and i drifted apart, and lost track. Since October of 2020, our son has found both of us, brought us back together, and we're getting married soon ! LOVE WAS RIGHT BEFORE MY EYES!!

RIP Jimi Jamison. What an amazing artist.

Jimi Jameson had one of the most beautiful voices in all of Rock and Roll. Criminally underrated.

Just lost my wife of 33 years to Covid19 this was always my song to her. She stuck with me through the good times and the bad times. I feel truly lost without her. My search for love led me to her and to Jesus. She will live forever in my heart!

March 2024, this is my kinda playlist. who’s with me? 🙋🏻‍♀️

I still live in 80's. Never understand today's music. Thank God I grew up back then ..feel bad for kids today.

This takes me back to my high school days - I wanted to dance to this song with a girl I had a crush on... but she was dating someone else... Today, I'm married to that girl.

I genuinely think that 80s were the golden decade of human kind, because there was this perfect balance between arts, technology, humanity, freedom and all the other good things, but now technology has taken over most of those beautiful things!

Lost my girlfriend due to chronic illness a few days ago. This was our song and will forever will be. I miss her so much.

people don't make amazing songs like this anymore :(

This was the song played at my father's funeral. He died on February 09, 2020, because of gastric cancer. This was his favorite song and he really liked singing this on karaoke. This song plays in my mind every time I miss him. May he rest in peace. Love you, Dad.

I had a best friend named Ashley and she got me hooked on 80s and 90s songs. She died in a car accident our junior year. I never told her how much I loved her. This song reminds me of her. Dont take people for granted

I'd give anything to go back to the 80's. Without a doubt the greatest time of my life. 80's 4ever!!!!

How can I convince you What you see is real? Who am I to blame you For doubting what you feel? I was always reachin' You were just a girl I knew I took for granted The friend I had in you I was living for a dream Loving for a moment Taking on the world That was just my style Now I look into your eyes I can see forever The search is over You were with me all the while Can we last forever? Will we fall apart? At times, it's so confusing The questions of the heart You followed me through changes And patiently you'd wait 'Til I came to my senses Through some miracle of fate I was living for a dream Loving for a moment Taking on the world That was just my style Now I look into your eyes I can see forever The search is over You were with me all the while Now the miles stretch out behind me Loves that I have lost Broken hearts lie, victims of the game Then good luck, it finally struck Like lighting from the blue Every highway's leading me back to you Now at last, I hold you Now all is said and done The search has come full circle Our destinies are one So if you ever loved me Show me that you give a damn You'll know for certain The man I really am I was living for a dream Loving for a moment Taking on the world That was just my style Then I touched your hand I could hear you whisper The search is over Love was right before my eyes

I can't believe this man died in 2014 and I did not hear of his passing in the news. I guess it was not a big deal for many people, but this band is part of our memories. I was a teen in the 80s and this band like the rest of the 80s bands holds a special place in my heart. I just wished this man had been honored in a different way at the time of his passing. RIP jimi jamison

That's it. I'm going to build a time machine back to the 80's and take all of you with me.

We don't look for old songs, We look for the memories they carry🤩😘😘😘

Real music. Real talent. Real feels.

The 80's were the best time to grow up ❤️

The love of my life and I divorced in 2007. I moved to North Carolina, she stayed in California. I returned to California in 2010, after a year in New York. I couldn't shake her, and was able to express that every weekend, when she would get the kids. In 2016, after 9 years apart, we made a commitment to never let the small things tears us apart again and are now living this song. I think this song is what we all hope for....to no longer have to search for the love of our lives. Dude had an amazing voice, and I didnt realize he passed. I grew up in the 80's and it really hits home all the people that are no longer here. Puts it into perspective how short life is and how important it is hold on to the things that are irreplaceable in our lives. Love ya Andrea...more than you could ever know.

This is the only way I can be back in time,I just lay down ,turn off the lights and listen to my favorite 70s 80s music until I fall asleep, wishing to wake up back in those days

Survivor was criminally underrated....

80s back when music had real meaning & feelings.

Jimi Jamison and Survivor are my Number 1 of all time, this man has a passion like no other, he sang his heart out and sang since day 1 until he past in 2014 Jimi will always be KING and no one will ever replace him. Jimi will always and forever be apart of my family, a true voice of HEAVEN Jimi we all miss you so much keep on singing up there JUST BEYOND THE CLOUDS . LOTS OF LOVE. 💙💖🐅

The Search is Not Yet Over for those who are still searching. The Search is Over for those who don't search anymore because they are lucky enough to have the right one. One of my favorite songs, still one of the Top Hits until now.

Anyone out there listening this 2019? I don’t know why it made me cry, I miss so much this era of music. 😭

Rip Jamison. You had an amazing voice and sang with passion. Great song, great voice, great era.

I'm loving in 2023❤One, of the most Underrated Voices & Group, in Rock❤ R.I.P. Jamie Jamison❤

Jimi Jamison is one of the best singers ever.👍❤

80s was the best time being a kid..loved every minute

So underrated. His voice was phenomenal.

4/2024 and still listening to the great music of the 80's, nothing like it and most likely won't be.

Take me back to the 80s such happy memories I will never forget .

This might not be the best-known Survivor song but it's one hell of a love ballad, and when you find the one true love of your life you'll think of this song.

"The Search Is Over" How can I convince you What you see is real Who am I to blame you For doubting what you feel I was always reachin' You were just a girl I knew I took for granted The friend I had in you I was living for a dream Loving for a moment Taking on the world That was just my style Now I look into your eyes I can see forever The search is over You were with me all the while Can we last forever Will we fall apart At times it's so confusing The questions of the heart You followed me through changes And patiently you'd wait 'Till I came to my senses through Some miracle of fate I was living for a dream Loving for a moment Taking on the world That was just my style Now I look into your eyes I can see forever The search is over You were with me all the while Now the miles stretch out behind me Loves that I have lost Broken hearts lie, victims of the game Then good luck, it finally struck Like lighting from the blue Every highway's leading me back to you Now at last I hold you Now all is said and done The search has come full circle Our destinies are one So if you ever loved me Show me that you give a damn You'll know for certain The man I really am I was living for a dream Loving for a moment Taking on the world That was just my style Then I touched your hand I could hear you whisper The search is over Love was right before my eyes

I'm honored to have grown up in the 80's.

There is no such music that can replace 80’ and the early 90’ are all best of all times. RIP Jimi..

In 8th grade my girlfriend and I loved this song, we were going to be together forever. That Friday after school we gave each other a kiss and hug, and told each other we loved each other. She was going on a family vacation for a week, unfortunately her and 5 other family members lost their life in a horrible car accident. I'm 53 now and I think about her everyday of my life, this song was our song❤

The search is over! But he died after 3 years of our marriage.😭 Still the memories lingers on, everytime I heard this song it brings me back lots of memories in my past ❤️🌹

This song always takes me back to my high school days. There was a girl who I absolutely loved. But because of my shyness I didn't ask her out. Listening to this song makes me think maybe if I had asked her out then I wouldn't have gone through life as a loner.

2024 who’s still with me, listening to this, watching the sunset..?

Got back with my high school sweetheart. Sad I lost 25 years without her, but I’ll never let her go again. The search is FINALLY over...

Sad that this voice has left us. RIP jimi jamison

being 17 in 1985 was like winning the lottery in life. This song was climbing and dominating charts from spring through summer. What a killer year

This song just hit 40 years old January 1, 2024. It came out January 1, 1984. It's crazy to think it's that old, damn we Gen X'ers are getting old!

I love coming back to the comments here from time to time and reading all of the stories. It’s empowering and uplifting. I hope those who feel alone can find just one beacon on here to keep fighting and keep searching.

They don't make music like this anymore

I am Jimi's age so we grew up going through the 60's as teens, having lived through the 60',70' and 80's music I saw it all. He was a truly gifted artist and singer. This song says it all, met my wife in the 80's and we are still together. I am a guitarist but wish I had his voice.

This song is the greatest meet the woman of your dreams of all time! Who out there agrees with me in 2023?

It's 2023 and I'm still Inlove to this song😍 most of 70's,80's 90's song is heart touching.i always feel the pain in every memories of a song😭

RIP dear Jimi! This world is worse without you and your magical voice...

Definitely one of the underrated great songs of the 1980's

When I lost my husband 10 years ago, this was the song that kept me going those years, most times I think about him I listen to this music🌹❤️

This guy had some voice!! Wow!! I loved his voice!! So sad that he's gone. RIP Jimi Jamison 💖😥

Its a New Decade Everybody. This song still jamms in 2020. Well if anybody still listens to Survivor

Being a teenager in the 80s was great

I guess song & love have no boundaries. I was brought up in my country listening this song & when at age of 50 hear those again bring nothing but bitter sweet memories. Thank you Jimi for giving something which we can cherish now. RIP brother

Amazing voice,great song, great singer. They don't make songs like this anymore. Songs with meaning

This song made me a survivor fan for life! Jimi had such powerful range and perfect tone.

This man is so underrated, I just hope he wasn't underpaid. What a gift to all of us. It's 2020 and his voice popped in my head. RIP Jimi and thank you for sharing so many great songs not to mention all of the Baywatch stuff. You could sing in another language and it would sound beautiful as well.

I miss music where singers actually sing to a melody

Where have all the ballads gone?! 80's music still the best!

You are truly missed Jimi Jamison but your songs will be always in our minds... 💕 RIP Jimi 😭

JIMI JAMISON SINGS A SONG WITH SO MUCH HEART IN IT. IT REFLECTS WHAT HE WAS AS A MAN WHO LOVED PEOPLE AND SHOWED IT THROUGH ALL THE CHARITY PERFORMANCES HE DID. NO ONE HAS A VOICE THAT EVEN COMES CLOSE TO HIS.

This song helped my partner and I to better understand our journey. We were lovers in the past, broke up several times and our misfortunes elsewhere lead us back together. We have now finally realized were meant for each other. The separation made us better prepared. This song resonates because it tells our story

This was the first song my wife and I danced to at our wedding reception. I searched for external gratification all my life up until I met her. When I did, the search was truly over. I had met my soul mate. This seemed the ideal song to express that. I still remember it like it was yesterday, and it still brings a tear of joy to my eyes. That was truly my greatest day. This sing brings it all back.

Jimmi Jamison and Steve Perry are the masters of 80's ballads

Absolutely outstanding. The way he hits that A4 is phenomenal. Brings tears to my eyes. Jimi Jamison you were the best my friend! I'm sure you're making heaven sound all the more heavenly. See you soon. 🫂🙏🏼

This song makes me so sentimental. It makes me think of others feelings. It really makes me sad but makes me endearing towards them. I'm a empathetic.

When I look into your eyes, I can see forever... Astonishing. Simply genius. A kind of singer born only once in a lifetime. RIP Jimi. Thank you for the songs that shaped the 80's.

The three trumpets of the 80’s Jimi Jamison Steve Perry Peter Cetera

I finally got the confidence to sing a few years ago & Jimi is someone I always admired. I was shocked to find out he died many years ago! He has one of the greatest voices in rock music 🎶

I remember when I was a teen this song was playing its original run in the US in '85. The Goonies was also in its run at the same time. Great time to be alive to experience genuine innocence, passion, hope, and possibilities of that time.

R.I.P Jimi Jamison ...and thank you..❤

our wedding song in 1986 .. still a beautiful song and we have made it 33 years so far

A lonely song but sending a powerful meaning of TRUE LOVE...

I feel SO blessed to have grown up in the 80’s, graduating HS in 1985. It was BEST of times!!!

One of the greatest songs of the 80's by Survivor..R.I.P. Jimi Jamison you're voice was remarkable and you are deeply missed..

This is our song, played it for my wife at a crucial moment in our lives, and will forever remain in our heart and souls till our death. Today is our 28th anniversary, so it means a lot to us, all the lyrics seem to be written for us. Thank you guys... they don't do music like this anymore.

Here in 2024 😢

Im insanely Confused that how they write this kind of songs like all the songs in those Era are fucking Amazing👏.

Jimi Jamison and Steve Perry, the voices beautiful of the 80!!! ♥

This is definitely for my Mom, who I lost back in March of this year (2019), I hope to this day she knows how much I love & miss her.

RIP..... Jimmy what a voice !

Still here in 2024. Love this song.

Why the very best people go so soon? RIP Jimi Jamison. My god I can't believe he's gone. Really sad

Where have all the beauty of life gone? Genuine love. Genuine people. True love. 80's best times of my life. I love to close my eyes as I listen to these songs and take a walk down memory lane....

One of the greatest band of all time. Love all of their song. Long live Survivor 💖💖💖

Love this song. 80s were amazing. Only realize when you get older

Jimi Jamison was one of the greatest singers back then. Rip never forgotten

My God, but what a beautiful and moving song. You can't listen to it without feeling nostalgia and tenderness gushing out of every pore. Simply wonderful. I love the 80s

What a loss to those who loved his music. A man who had many more years left, died, sadly of a hemorrhagic stroke, as the result of methamphetamine intoxication. It's just never worth it............

Ritchie Blackmore (Deep Purple/Rainbow): "I had seen Jimi in Survivor and was very impressed. I remember going down to Tennessee to meet him and I really liked him as a person. He then came up to try out with Deep Purple. We did one song, I think it was 'Going Down' and he was so good I immediately stopped playing and just said, 'You're in!' He said, 'Don't you want to do more songs?' I said, 'No, you are so damn good, I know that you are perfect for the job.' We went out and celebrated at a restaurant. I was full of ideas due to his melodic, soulful voice, and he could improvise much better than a lot of singers I knew so he had every aspect I was looking for in a singer. Very, very nice guy. Very humble. Unfortunately, two weeks later, we were told he couldn't join the band. We never found out why. I think it had something to do with the management. I was surprised and saddened by what happened, and it was a mystery to me what had gone down. It was a bad moment for me. I rated him as one of the top singers in the country."

Everyone needs to watch this awesome powerhouse vocalist sing this live. I was truly shocked at how perfectly he performs this. Jimi Jamison was a very gifted artist,and taken way too soon. R.I.P.

One of the greatest voices ever.

He is so missed! Always R.I.P. JJ

What makes this song so awesome is the no BS Clarity in Jimmy Jamieson's vocals.

I rather still listen to this. Music today is worthless
