My wife and I were on a trip to Ireland to bring in the new year of 2016. We ended up staying an extra week, we were in a restaurant and I recognised Colin sitting with friends and sent the table a bottle of wine. He came over, shook our hands and was totally charming. When we asked for our bill, we were told Mr Vercombe had taken care of it. A short time later he was gone. RIP Colin and thank you.
One of the most beautiful songs of all time - yes, I am intensely aware of its irony, but this song (and album) kept me going during a horrible time and I will forever love it and the dulcet voice of Mr Vearnecombe, sadly missed but never forgotten
Here I go out to sea again The sunshine fills my hair And dreams hang in the air Gulls in the sky and in my blue eyes You know it feels unfair There's magic everywhere Look at me standing Here on my own again Up straight in the sunshine No need to run and hide It's a wonderful, wonderful life No need to laugh or cry It's a wonderful, wonderful life The sun's in your eyes, the heat is in your hair They seem to hate you Because you're there And I need a friend, oh, I need a friend To make me happy Not stand there on my own Look at me standing Here on my own again Up straight in the sunshine No need to run and hide It's a wonderful, wonderful life No need to laugh or cry It's a wonderful, wonderful life I need a friend, oh, I need a friend To make me happy Not so alone Look at me here Here on my own again Up straight in the sunshine No need to run and hide It's a wonderful, wonderful life No need to laugh or cry It's a wonderful, wonderful life It's a wonderful life It's a wonderful life It's a wonderful life
Что такое гений... Не рвал глотку, не выпрыгивал из штанов, не использовал бэк-вокал и подтанцовку, не набрасывал эффекты на голос, не одевался в блестки, не перекусывал на сцене пернатым шею. Просто, прекрасная мелодия и прекрасный текст. Вышла бессмертная песня.
@@decimal4334 а то ,что эта мышь была резиновая , тебе известно ? Ты пробовал хоть раз взять и бросить живую летучую мышь на сцену ,да чтоб она не взлетела ,как это обычно бывает,а упала к ногам великого Оззи , а потом лежала и ждала пока ей откусят голову ? Я даже в то время, когда узнал об этом, подумал ,что мышка вряд-ли была живой , или мертвая или игрушечная . А уж спустя столько лет , можно придумывать разные легенды . Оззи концерт продолжил , если что .
Collin Vearncombe alias Black. Now there is artist that I will never forget. Wonderful life is true brilliant song. It's a song with a very ironic meaning. This song stuck to me back then like it's sticking to my now. He sings this song and it is as if you are feeling that same loneliness. Feelings of utterly being left alone. A brilliant song. He was in a class of his own.
Где-то там остались молодость, грёзы и всё то что приносило счастье. Просто от того что были мы, были текто очень дорог. И всё было настоящим... Слушаю и ощущаю глубокую тоску по тому что уже никогда не вернётся.
Introverts don't run and hide. They don't mind being alone. They are the people who research, study, exercise, eat properly. Ultimately the very ones who take care of the sick, poor, and teach.
This holy song is coming directly from heaven and it is one of the most beautiful songs of the last 100 years, our lovely Black lives in our hearts forever...
Потрясающая композиция!!! Великолепное исполнение, которое берет за душу любого человека!!! Колин - это радуга жизни, любви и мира!!! Покойся с миром красавчик!!!
I was lonely and a new immigrant to a country which I had no friends or family but had to immigrate to at a young age for my life and other circumstances in 1986…. This song was my soulmate and kept me going! So sad and reminds me of those tough days in my life. He left us too early 😢
I am happy to hear you pulled through.😊 It is a melancholic song but at the same time it is uplifting. After the darkness comes the light. I think I have heard that Colin Verncombe wrote this when he was having a hard time earlier in his career. I was very sad to hear of his passing in 2016. So many singers and actors died that year. RIP Colin.
You are correct. David Bowie also died that year as did the actor Alan Rickman (who played Professor Snape). All English- Alan Rickman, David Bowie and Colin Vearncombe (aka Black). 2016 was a bad year. 😢@@karimaogden3875
I want more people to know the wonderfulness of this song. He wants you to receive every message from the lyrics of this song. He wants more people to notice the artist black. R.I.P Colin
The lyrics and melody are simply beautiful, but let's just spend a moment to appreciate the perfect arrangement, particularly the synthesised steel drum.
Tenía 14 años y me dormía escuchando en mi "personal stereo" esta hermosa cancion. Hoy con 47 me duermo escuchandola en mi celular. Hermosa voz y musica ♡
Me too 😊 I am 41 and I heard it on the radio in the middle of the night when I was putting my daughter to sleep six years ago. I was taken back instantly. It's such a peaceful song.
Удивительная музыка!Восхитительная и неповторимая.Мелодия которая навевает сладкие воспоминания о беззаботности в нашей юности.какой-то безбашенности.о первых дискотеках,первой влюбленности,первых свиданиях и поцелуях.о дружных компаниях и вечерних посиделок.почему-то вспоминаются близкие люди,ушедшие от нас
🥺Love this song. Singing how unfair life can be, but somehow this song uplifts me. Although the outside world looks black & white with grief🥺, I can still feel the beauty of this world.🥺💖RIP💖🙏
for me he passed away very young it is very strange and at the same time sad that good people, good thinkers, good parents, good personalities, good singers, in short, people who are good references die so soon. but Black us your work: your great musical work thank you!
So many years after, here I am, out to sea again ... I was 11 years old when this song camed out and just loved it on the first hearing. Although there are some people claiming that there some suicidal elements in this song, for me it's a glorification of life. Also this song helped me overcome some difficult moments during my adolescence ... more times. ... and later ... also more times. Thank you and rest in peace Colin. 🙏
Sometimes a song is made and is exceptional quality because it is simple and lovely and it speaks to people, all people. This is that rare jewel of a song. I didn't appreciate it when it was first playing on the radio back in the day. Now I find it precious and soothing.
Всегда настальгия по ушедшей юности. С музыкой связаны наши воспоминания и счастливые моменты жизни. От этого нам приятно и грустно.... Потрясающая композиция!!!
Man I remember this song. I was so lucky to find this gem again. Brings me back to the 80’s again when songs like these were obscure but it makes me appreciate them even more.
The song and the voice are purely heavenly. It ripped my heart every time I listened to. I hope he's having a " wonderful life " in another world. R.I. P. 💫🩵💫
Bellísima canción!!!! Transmite Paz y amor a la Vida♥️🎼♥️🎼♥️Desde Buenos Aires Argentina...a más de 120 días de cuarentena...La música es el bálsamo del Alma🎼🕊♥️
No hay nada de paz y amor ahí. El cantante habla de manera sarcástica sobre su vida sofrida. Em 85, Black perdió tudo: dinero, matrimónio, su casa y su auto. Su madre estva muy enferma. El entonces decidió hacer esta canción de en como un sarcasmo por su "maravillosa" vida.
Este tema y el tema de Brian ferry (esclavo del amor) son dos himnos para el alma y el corazón!!! Los escucho una y otra vez y cada vez me cala más profundo. ❤💖💝
