I am so sorry for your loss. I have met others who have told me that this song gave them solace and wonderful memories of their true loves. Hopefully hearing this song reminds you of the great love you both shared. I know that my Anna is looking down on me, and I am sure that your wife is with you each and every day. This song means so much to so many people, and we were both lucky to have been able to share this beautiful song with the people we love.

"Those captions were so off" Yeah, I was laughing at them it was so bad! Absolutely fantastic song though, the decision to have her lead off the tour playing "I believe" solo on the piano was spot on! Oleta has a powerful voice!

Went to high school with Oleta in Yakima, WA where everyone knew she was a one of a kind talent. The high school musical “Hello Dolly” where Oleta played the lead, sold out all three nights, 1,500 people each night. Her HS music teacher quit her job to become Oleta’s manager. Her three mid-90’s solo albums are amazing.

This song has a very sad background. Roland's mum worked in a night club and his dad was her manager. If his dad found out that his mum had flirted with the customers ( which she sometimes did to get tips) he would beat her when she got home. Roland said that he thought of his mum when writing this song

This song was so pogient back in the 70 s and 80 s. Many women and men as well, around society had to make hard choices that they never wanted in life only to survive. Who wants to be a stripper, or a sex trade worker. Who wants to be a bunching bag as a boxer. Who gets the worst end of the stick? A women in chains. A woman who has to make the most of what she has to survive in. Very sad when you think about it. Canadian Grandma Lori. C.

She shouldn't have broken up with him, just because he lost that "angel" look in his eyes. That seems shallow and immature. Clearly she had some growing up to do, but it was in the wrong direction. I don't know. I have mixed feelings about this. In the first place, he should have gotten pissed at her for that sort of conditional "love" or whatever it was she felt for him. It might have saved her ultimately. Who knows. And she should have looked closely at what he'd gone through. Instead she breaks it off. Like I said, mixed feelings. Excellent song tho. TFF are really one of the best the 80s had to offer.
