[@alexithymia_deb]

My sister loved this, May she rest in peace.

[@GaelicMagyar]

Lord rest your sister.

[@geetee4459]

Driving around in an unfamiliar part of Australia in 1995 and fell in love with this song on the roads from Broome to Derby and other towns in the Kimberley region after the plane I was supposed to be travelling on broke down.

[@sean2015]

The kind of song that makes you want to pop in to Macca’s and then have a beer or two 🥰

[@kane8763]

RIP Chris Wilson who preformed the backing vocals and played the harmonica to this great track.

[@shanearkinstall6567]

Kane Cruickshanks i has friends who were tutoring under him he was a teacher at braybrook high school west melbourne

[@pauljordan4452]

RIP indeed. It's performed. I was in a choir when this was released and liked his voice.

[@malligrub]

Ah nostalgia. When did I get old...

[@leewhite9029]

Timeless tune !

[@erflingnot]

Don’t get old…. Denied! Peter Pan soul in Dallas!….. i’m 65 a child of the hippies era! The new music will sustain you the old music is a strong foundation

[@PooDotStinkPants]

Hello future person, yes we are still listening in *[insert date here]* . You have great taste in music too. Have a lovely day!

[@MothmanBaddie]

This song has been with me for nearly all the seasons of my life 🌻

[@BenParker-gt4vt]

2024 and still one of my all time favs

[@CraigHumphries-q6y]

The bloke singing he's awesome 💯

[@ElectricSmurf]

The late Chris Wilson. He’s terrific here.

[@thedcmac]

This song has always touched my soul. Love it so much.

[@hwd71]

Was just perusing the top 100 of '95 and came across this song, what a gem.

[@questionblock8949]

What a great idea, i think i will do that too 👍 early to mid 90s

[@retroj25]

Much better song than the bigger hit ... Mouth

[@garyallan5710]

MUCH BETTER VIDEO THAN A DUDE WITH DRY LIPS AND SPIT

[@pauljordan4452]

The song could have been called Arse instead. 😊

[@Friendship1nmillion]

🤷🇦🇺 : Possibly { both are great } . #TeenageMemories 🙇💔

[@SteveLovejoy-t7c]

Remember this clip on Hey Hey it's Saturday...& John Blackman said 'alright' at the end. Yes Chris Wilson had a fantastic baritone voice.

[@witchkitty4825-ju2sh]

This lady should have been world wide , that voice is amazing

[@Yesyeshii]

Absolute ball tearer of a track ⚡️

[@truestindian5243]

Great, brought back my teenage memories of 1995 I had imported this cassette from Australia still have the cassette all songs are melodious sweet voice

[@jcsvlog5957]

Same

[@leewhite9029]

Can you record me a copy? I’ll pay for it!

[@cs512tr]

such a sweet voice

[@michaelwhyte8529]

I bought more items at the supermarket because of this song.

[@ingrid_inthesky]

I have not heard this since I was a daydreaming little girl in the 90s. I always will love in my heart in memories💘

[@apotheticallyautistic73]

One of my favourite artists growing up

[@OGMillwood]

Bro with the deep backing voice is my nineties spirit animal.

[@forestduffe9586]

Such a sad song , yet good song to listen to

[@viennapalace]

It doesn't seem fair that one person can be so pretty, so sweet & so talented...

[@jessriseley1532]

2022 still awesome

[@bekahhooper9852]

Omg this song brings me back to my highschool days sitting in my room playing this cassette thinking i was so cool lol

[@latenightlogic]

Mouth is forgettable - this is goosebump inducing. Stroke of genius to have that extended outro.

[@questionblock8949]

Yes i noticed the outro recently too! Heard it on the radio and was enjoying it

[@sutats]

Those lovely days.

[@dougcoxon5472]

My fav song of hers, now and back in the day. Xxx

[@megandevine2052]

Love this song

[@evilstuie82]

Where the hell is the musical equivalent of this nowadays? Merril, Wendy Matthews, Savage Garden, Southern Sons....

[@Alabaster335]

All tied up in talent-less electronic autotuned garbage.

[@longtallshorty5791]

You're not looking for it. You're lazy and just want to wah wah wah about how things aren't exactly the same.

[@bradcoulter1316]

Great song Merrill was brilliant so we're the backing vocals shame he's gone

[@chefbenardee1408]

God bless you my fantastic friend... may you recieve so much hope and joy and love constantly and forever

[@erflingnot]

A 65 year old Peter Pan soul in Dallas, don’t get old, this never does! OX

[@briankennedy1192]

Good man 57 here.

[@72aussie]

When the guy comes in with “ I’ll be your lover under the water “ “ I could be standing to make it easier “ Magic 🪄 song 🎶

[@davidadewitt6385]

This lady touches my heart...

[@RoughJustice2k18]

This is the second single of Merril's to make it to the top 10 on the Australian ARIA singles chart in 1995, but "Mouth" is her only significant hit, which spent 6 consecutive weeks at #1.

[@capitalist88]

Hmmm...am I the only one who wants to know who the backup vocalist is? She's beautiful!

[@Alabaster335]

Rememeber seeing Merril on Hey Hey in 1995.

[@CraigHumphries-d9v]

Chris is awesome

[@paulnorton2885]

RIP Chris Wilson.

[@BlackMamba0818]

What happened

[@paulnorton2885]

He passed away after a battle with cancer.

[@violettimes1057]

Your eyes are coloured STONE 🕊☮️🇦🇺⭐️❤️🚀🙏🦋

[@ElectricSmurf]

Merril was a looker and gets most of the attention but, darn, Suzannah Espie had it all back then too! I like the song but for me the highlight is Cris Wilson’s backing vocal!

[@meilingflesa8140]

This was a hit when l was in uni

[@davidadewitt6385]

Also, "The Power of One" gives me goosebumps

She was a pretty big influence on her career.

She was so cute

[@JavenarchX]

Classic

[@timothyunderwood5235]

Chris Wilson complimented this song so much. I think Everlast would be the next best backup!!!!

Are you still listening? 2023?❤

Absolutely

[@littlemissblackdress7587]

Chris Wilson's vocals is my favourite part of the song.

[@lindab424]

Was this seriously released in 1995? Man I am getting old because it doesn't seem that long ago that I first heard it. Merril has a beautiful voice.

[@ChatGPT1111]

Wow, forgot what a knockout she was. Amazing voice too.

[@bradcoulter1316]

Fuck he was good brilliant frontman great voice not to mention the whole band he'll always be black magic to me gift by name gift by nature brilliant 👍

[@bjscorpio4041]

Does anyone know the relationship between this song and the Tlot Tlot song with the same chorus?

[@FokkerTISM]

This IS a rewrite of the Tlot Tlot song. This is why it's credited to Stanley and Owen in the liner notes.

[@bjscorpio4041]

@@FokkerTISM Thanks

[@erflingnot]

I’ve just researched Tlot Tlot… because of your question…. Could you please name the particular song you have mentioned ;-) and I will still go look I like them and I never knew! 2021

Just listened to Taylor Swifts album Folklore and the track Betty has total Under the Water vibes... can anyone else hear that or is it just me?!

[@erflingnot]

I wish I could but I just can’t do Taylor Swift…. You give me the courage let me go try. I love new music but I can’t do pop music I’m spoiled give me strength

[@racquelritchie9783]

Such a good and funny song

[@Wout.vlmnck]

Funny? It's about a friend who died by drowning.

[@paulnorton2885]

This would have been a good song without the part vocal by the late Chris Wilson. The contribution by Chris turned it into a great song.

[@themanagement69]

The bass dude is random af, but great song

[@pauljordan4452]

The male singer, bluesman Chris Wilson, died recently. He was 62.

[@stupendous1068]

He looks and sounds similar to Fred Durst.

[@themanagement69]

@@pauljordan4452 RIP mate

[@philv2529]

It's hard to believe that this song is about a drowning victim.

[@yankeegirl5175]

Well this song doesn't really hold up now does it 😂😂 Seriously used to love it! She's a mermaid right??

[@JavenarchX]

There's not a heap of production on this

[@geeclatters6121]

Infinitely better song and performance than any shit released by Billy Eyelash and her fellow mumblers.

[@taylerjosef]

why can't we just appreciate great music without bringing dead people into it 😂

So he's drowning in the pool... she swims out and saves him.... and then she stands on the ladder to make it easier? Kinky.

Standing on a ladder to make what easier? This song makes no sense at all.

This came out in 1995.
