So glad I stumbled across this song last night. The cover art caught my eye, and I clicked on it. Now I found a new song to stay addicted to for a while

[@mariacoronel2547]

1:18 The cover is pure art + the music is great.

[@pt207]

Same feeling here

[@Martine1love]

Same happened to me. Found this totally by chance and am so glad I did. I love their version and their voices.

I just danced this entire song not entirely sober making circles around the half-lit living room with my girlfriend in our beautiful glass house, thank you guys for providing me this evening in my imaginary life

[@The.EatMe.BeatMe.Lady.920]

I'll imagine in dancing with you.

[@alexchavezau1338]

I love when I find gems like this all the time. So many genres and so many artists that I discover and am proud to listen to

[@acissejzerimar6345]

I walk in shadow through the city so still and the night gathers ‘round me low like a spirit distilled And I know she’ll be waiting I know just what we’d do I know exactly how she feels cause I feel it too I feel it too But I took my heart and I gave it to you, babe ( gave it to you ) and though I’m no stranger to temptation I walk on cause nothing, nothing, nothing compares to you The tears on my pillow well they dried long ago I lost myself a thousand times I turned my heart to stone And I know, she’ll be restless and she’ll want me to stay and I’d be liar if I said I didn’t feel just exactly the same just the same But I took my heart and I gave it to you, babe ( gave it to you ) and though I’m no stranger to temptation I walk on cause nothing, nothing, nothing compares to you Well I took my heart and I gave it to you, babe ( gave it to you ) and though I’m no stranger to temptation I walk on cause nothing, nothing, nothing compares to you nothing, nothing nothing in this world will do

Slow dancing to this song with your loved one in your arms....a glass of red wine in her hand and a dying cigarette in your hand....this is all i need right now :)

[@unwellcreature]

@@Sumir5254 oh god i'm so sorry....but u still can embrace the good memories of them yk :) i hope u feel that

[@ryandavid453]

The KZbin algorithm did a good thing here. You’ve got an old sound, with a modern feel. Just perfect!

[@J.S.4ever]

Immediately reminds me of my john. His taste in music was the best.. I imagine he would have been showing me this one. I love him and miss him so much 😭❤️

[@thehenchdon]

I don’t know you but I just wanted to say I can tell John whoever he was to you, 😊loved you very much, have a good day❤

[@ogday1330]

I found this song on my own and love it. It made me think of him, he’s moved on now.. I saw him , he was playing this song too I told myself “ain’t no dam way” The love of my life listening to a song of exactly how I feel about him. I was in the wrong and hurt my own heart and his too because I didn’t want to be ready and now that you moved on I know now not having you in my life being able to hear your old man laugh hurts my heart so much. Nothing truly compares to you

[@SirSwagNewton]

Hey Maybe you can find some Comfort in that He is maybe feeling this Song in a way to sympathize with you in some way or another much love from an austrian ❤

[@Jay-ms3on]

my best friend really likes this song. we used to listen to it all the time when we’d hang out at her place with her cat. she’s in another country now, we rarely talk because we’re both so busy but i think of her all the time. i love the way the people we meet in this life leave tracks of themselves in us. N if u see this, i miss u everyday.

[@Martine1love]

Came across this song and group by chance, and am so glad I did. Absolutely love this version and group. Great sound!!

[@LetoTheThird]

i was expecting a cover of the sinead o'connor song and i'm pleasantly surprised its not, this is spectacular, that steady guitar and the keyboard in the back is just sublime

[@Mare-k3s]

Damn. WTF. Where have I been. Who are these folks. Cool🎵🎶😎😉

[@michaelscott2292]

I love this song

[@thuggy67]

The protagonist walks through the quiet city shadows, feeling the night envelop them like a distilled spirit. They anticipate meeting someone special, understanding their emotions intimately as they share the same feelings. Despite being tempted elsewhere, they remain committed because nothing compares to their beloved. Memories of past heartbreaks linger, but they've hardened their heart. They acknowledge the restlessness of their beloved, but they both know the pull to stay. Despite the trials, they've dedicated their heart entirely to their love, knowing nothing else in the world can compare.

[@lilx4784]

what a masterpiece

[@tammiesimmons812]

Never heard this love it , he sounds like an angel , soul full of love!!!!! So glad you sent it to me MY SON!!!

[@jessicafaracca9768]

[@borteborte09]

[@maromunoz]

What a beautiful song 😢

[@Garden_Girl]

Finally! A musician has come along who rebirths the 60s/70s sound! 💥

[@waynedexter]

“Finally!”? There are 4 or 5 record labels that I can think of that are dedicated to this type of retro sound

[@christophersmith3005]

If you like this, you'll love the Monophonics, a band out of the Bay Area.

[@LoveOneAnotherHeSaid]

Those two decades were very different musically... were you even alive then?

[@Taru1blm]

The Black Keys got this vibe.

[@mrtibbz10]

​@@waynedexter Good for you, They're happy.

LYRICS: I walk in shadow Through the city so still And the night gathers ‘round me, Lord Like a spirit distilled And I know she’ll be waiting I know just what we’d do I know exactly how she feels ‘Cause I feel it too I feel it too But I took my heart And I gave it to you, baby (gave it to you) And though I’m no stranger To temptation I welcome ‘Cause nothing, nothing, nothing Compares to you The tears on my pillow Well, they dried long ago I lost myself a thousand times I turned my heart to stone And I know she’ll be restless And she’ll want me to stay And I’d be a liar if I said I didn’t feel just exactly the same Just the same But I took my heart And I gave it to you, baby (gave it to you) And though I’m no stranger To temptation I welcome ‘Cause nothing, nothing, nothing Compares to you Well I took my heart And I gave it to you, baby (gave it to you) And though I’m no stranger To temptation I welcome ‘Cause nothing, nothing, nothing Compares to you, baby Nothing, nothing Nothing in this world will do
