John Waite - How Did I Get By Without You - 1995

John Waite - How Did I Get By Without You - Official Remastered Video
Single taken from "Temple Bar" album in 1995.

[@jeffreykunzler862]

Beautiful song John Waite is the greatest. It’s really unbelievable that this song wasn’t a hit

[@timmywarren3996]

I don't understand how this song wasn't bigger and didn't go to number 1. What a gem of a song . Your the greatest John Waite.

[@danielc1978]

it's one thing if you're a John Waite fan and you like this song. But this should have been a mainstream top 40 hit. I guess it just had no promotion. It's up there with his other hit singles....

[@NapoleonDynobyte]

Awesome song !

[@Javier-es4jb]

I play & play & Replay this great one i love this song

[@Marctull66]

How many times I've listened to this song and to the whole Temple Bar album, hundreds of times. Often while driving, on holidays or ... not. John Waite has got this special texture in his voice that makes it so pleasant. He should have achieved much more success with this album and the two next.

I have found it to be a love song written to divine love after much of life is lived. Then it could also be divine love writing a love song when we discover it. Beautiful. Love John Waite!

[@scotthazlewood9123]

artistic, soulful gentleman......and gives great interviews...

[@eightiesmusic1984]

I agree re the music and thoughtful interviews. I have listened to a lot of John Waite interviews and no matter the questions or how skilled the interviewer is, he always answers with grace and intelligence. Not many artists would say they are back in the moment the songs were conceived when they perform them up to forty years later, or that performing with a band when it all clicks into place is close to a religious experience. A true artist who eschewed the corporate dollar for musical integrity ( and I still love Bad English and wish they'd released more music).

I don’t know why this song was not more successful

[@dmainfla]

I play this one on my keys, and my daughter and I just sang the hell out of this song last Tuesday.

[@mcgarrygirl7884]

One of the stations in my small college town played all the "cheesy" love songs and one night they played this. I was changed after hearing it and so many years later its still a favorite.

I believe that this is one of the greatest love songs ever written. Beautifully performed by the wonderful John Waite. Fantastic job on the video! Thank You.

[@unhooked25]

Eleanor Rigby You got that right hands down. You know, that John Waite has such a unique if I may say, or soulful sounding voice. I'm sure you agree.

[@eleanorrigby8751]

+unhooked25 , I do agree. Combined with these lyrics (and I'm a lyric person), this is so incredibly romantic.

Some time in 2005 I was in Las Vegas at a cafe/restaurant on the strip on a Sunday morning/early afternoon. It was 'bloody mary bar' time. As I'm sitting at my table, I had a view of the bar and its patrons. I noticed three ladies walked in and wanted to sit at the bar, but there wasn't 3 seats together. So, I watched them, as one leaned over to a patron and asked him if he'd be so kind to move over so they could all sit together. He obliged. That 'patron'? John Waite. Earlier, I had just gotten my photo taken with him. There he was; just sitting there, the day after his gig in Vegas - all alone, enjoying a beverage. There I am, my jaw almost hitting the floor. He left soon after the ladies got their drinks. I couldn't help myself, as I was leaving, I just had to go up to them and say 'Do you know who you were sitting next to?'. Yeah, they were floored.

[@HeRacesTheSun]

+Michael Good Thanks for the John Waite story, much enjoyed reading it. I met Tom Scholz of Boston once and it was amazing.

[@eightiesmusic1984]

This is a great story and of a piece with the other comments on You Tube and elsewhere by people who have met or seen him in person.

The video direction in this is great, fabulous images captured that make this video really stand out. I have to admire the coat, too. It is great. The buttons really make that coat unique. I love pieces of clothing that have small details that stand out. The smallest things catch my eye. Thanks for sharing this video. It is lovely.

John Waite spoke once on how he would unwind at the end of the day at the Temple Bar for a glass of wine.The old man at the bowery he spoke of on " Downtown ". I still believe the wrong songs got released but I did enjoy the Glittering Prize.

Unfortunately a very generic song. I much prefer “Missing You” and John Waite’s work with Bad English. This sounds flat and mass produced
