Charlie Sexton - Beat's So Lonely (Beat The Lonely Monster Mix)

[@michaelhyde9070]

My God iv bn searching for this song since I first herd faintly on some kind of wonderful, I always remember thinking wow what is that song. Then wen thay both look at each other and that music I was like omg. Now in 2022 iv finally found it and that music and the feeling I felt bk in 93 has come back. I'm literally in tears of joy and yessss at last. I know all of you will feel the same. If you're my age lol. Peace.

I am SO there with you! I'm blown away I finally found it too!

For newer and younger fans of Charlie's, it's worth picking up the entire record, "Pictures For Pleasure", that this song is featured on. Full of great songs. I've heard various remixes and dance mixes of this song over the decades. Take into account Charlie was only 17 yrs. old when he recorded this album. Wrote, co-wrote the songs, did lead and harmony vocals, played most of the guitars, bass, some drums, keyboards and piano. Doing solo shows, he's done one or two songs off this record. But, he distanced himself from "Beats So Lonely" a long time ago. He just got tired of people thinking this song alone defined him, when he was able to do so much more. Producer of multiple records by other artists, was Bob Dylan's right-hand man on guitar for a good 20 years. Lately, back doing the Arc Angels thing. I've told him he'll never escape this song, and he should own it and always be proud of it. You have the millennials and Gen Z old enough to find this song, or watch "Some Kind Of Wonderful", in which they find this song and love it. Who wouldn't?

I'd known him for about 5 years, he was 12 and filling in for Jesse Taylor on Joe Ely's tour.

[@tootster1]

One of the best remixes ever and one of my faves by Charlie Sexton! Yes it made a huge impact in Some Kind of Wonderful. The scene with Watts and Stolz. Love it xx

i started to have a cone when this come out, in the car going out for car mulls in the bush, and put this on.

1 of the best songs in the 80's

[@miknmas1301]

Amen to that, brother!

Einfach bloß geil ❤

[@MrSDI2975]

One of the very best from the 80's - first picked it up from Some Kind of Wonderful (which is my favourite John Hughes movie). Would be nice if it was on Spotify though... :(

[@deanm1681]

What killer pop song, timeless

[@soalivepop]

Great song 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🆒

[@LAKingsare1]

Always reminds me of the movie Some kind of wonderful

[@applerumours1007]

So under rated this song !!!

[@paulreilly2428]

Totally agree! Way underrated. The version of this song played in black in white back in the day was killer. That hair! Right?!?!

[@nortonkauref703]

I always listened to this song when I was 17 years old.

[@Nohandle1125]

Thanks for adding this. It’s impossible to find this version anywhere else.

It was then that Hardy new he'd made a mistake.

Beat's so lonely I bet it's lonely at the top She hesitates But the beat will never stop Wanting him only But the people never see Her heart burning That's the secret that she keeps Come on baby You know there's something missing Don't find nothing No more coincidences Pretty baby Look in his eyes and you will see Things will happen But only if they're meant to be Beat's so lonely I bet it's lonely at the top So lonely at the top So lonely She said Beat's so lonely If you let it be that way She can't tell the difference anyway She thinks hold me But she's scared to say She paid dearly for the answers of her days Answers of her Answers of her days Beat's so lonely As she waits so patiently Her heart's yearning How she'd love him to see He's not hurting But he wouldn't mind to be She still sees him She sees him interestingly Come on baby You know there's something missing Don't find nothing No more coincidences Pretty baby Before you give him all you got Got to come closer You got to give it one more shot Beat's so lonely I bet she's lonely at the top So lonely at the top So lonely She said Beat's so lonely If you let it be that way She can't tell the difference anyway She thinks hold me But she's scared to say She paid dearly for the answers of her days Answers of her days Answers of her days So lonely (x8) Come on baby You know there's something missing Don't find nothing No more coincidences Pretty baby Before you give him all you got You got to come closer You got to give it one more shot Beat's so lonely I bet she's lonely at the top So lonely at the top So lonely So lonely (x10)

Charlie Sexton was so awesome in the 1980's you ruled the air waves

[@The.Last.Guitar.Hero.]

Billy Idol could have sung this

[@geoffreytimmerman9424]

Great track, but yes Billy would have sounded much better. Charlie was only 16y.o when he sang this!?!?!

[@geoffreytimmerman9424]

Billy would have DESTROYED (in a good way!) this song...Charlie was only 16y.o when he recorded this....GO BILLY!!!!

[@42fontenator]

He probably wishes he did, LOL. Sexton is a talented dude in his own right. He's played with SRV and Bob Dylan, for Christ's sake.

[@scottbrown5539]

Keith Forsey.

[@robertpeck5488]

I got John Cafferty/ Eddie and the Cruisers vibes off this but Charlie Sexton is the best and and should have been the biggest act on the charts with his looks and sound.

[@ryandeffley7652]

It's a shame the guitar solo from this that was used in Some Kind of Wonderful wasn't part of the original release. It seems wrong this isn't the actual version.

[@douglaswilliamson1382]

It WAS in Some Kind of Wonderful. After the Flesh for Lulu song finishes, and He and his date walk from his limo up to the museum you can hear this song in the background.

Douglas Williamson it's playing during the party at the end and then he realizes he loves Watts.
