Rick Springfield - Noah Drake's First Day 3/25/81

[@michellegiardinobast6466]

Wow..his smile lights up the hospital....he was and still is adorable...

[@sandyrusso6917]

Totally agree 💯

[@kareyannefoster]

It's those Dimples and those twinkling eyes!,!

[@angelaplaster1371]

I couldn't wait to get home from school and watch him on GH; even if it was the last 25 minutes of the show!! Then I would rock out the rest of the night listening to his albums!

[@janeporter818]

Awesome!

[@tomeko0762]

IKR I would catch the last 30 minutes of General Hospital!!

[@sl4983]

Same here, loved this show and especially with him on it!!

[@raechelyndawn2580]

I feel really dumb but could never understand why my sister wouldn’t miss a single episode. 😂

[@sydneyc.6714]

I was glued to the tv at 2pm the summer of 81. I also had a lot sick days from school too...lol

[@robinbrl]

LOL. I bet you did.

[@michaelcrockette8694]

yes indeed. there were a lot of folks glued 2 GH that year.🙂

[@tinageraghty8083]

You and me both!! 😆

[@Marie-jh7vk]

Lol! I suffered the same. Running like an athlete from school to watch GH and recording it on VCR, forwarding GH episodes just to find Dr. Noah Drake!

[@kloebl10]

Same.

[@joannehines7806]

Rick will.be a gorgeous heartthrob until the day he drops dead!! Truly representative of The Fountain of Youth; the man is now in his '70's & still looks fantastic!! 🎸 💘 👨 😍

[@joannehines7806]

As I mentioned before, I've been a huge fan since " Jessie's Girl" was released & became a greater fan when you became a cast member of the ABC-TV daytime series " General Hospital!! I've never seen you live & in person, but I've seen you perform numerous times on tv, in videos & in KZbin recorded concerts; would love it if you came to the Northeast US tp perform again; I live in Newark, NJ ( two major concerts halls are located here: The Prudential Center & NJ Performing Arts Center). Do you have an official fan club? I would love to become a member!! 💘 🎶

[@rachybaby72]

Not with all that plastic surgery, he won't...

[@genericman6648]

Joanne, are you still here with us? Changed your number? Just wanted to say, I was disappointed to see Rick's plastic surgery. Women today, can't seem to grow old with dignity....now men too! Rick was blessed with many talents. Certainly, times have changed since '81. I hope all is well.

[@stacydetwiler1475]

Monica and Bobbie are so young. Geez this was over 40 years ago. I liked Rick as a singer but never really got to see him on GH so I really appreciate you sharing these

[@sl4983]

He was actually a REALLY good actor on this show!

[@patrickthomas8890]

Crazy coincidence that the charge nurse was named Jesse.

[@carolynepps3911]

Noah Drake was the very first McDreamy!

[@dragonmoonchild6851]

OMG!! YES HE WAS!!!

[@lupitagonzalez7949]

THE OG!! He definitely was the blueprint!

[@kareyannefoster]

Absolutely!!!! All the other so called Doctor McDreamies pale in comparison. Then again Rick Springfield as Dr. Noah Drake set the bar pretty high.

[@KingKull1971]

🏥🚑When General Hospital actually took place in a Hospital 👨‍🔬👩‍🔬 🤣

[@khaligrl69]

He was the reason I started watching GM.

[@tammyammons195]

Still watching. 😊

[@sothiachhoeum87]

Handsome Rick Springfield ❤️🥰😘😍

[@robinbrl]

Rick can be my doctor any day.

[@coleencunningham404]

Amen❤ had a crush on Rick in the 80’s and still do in 2023

[@drummingdanny84]

Millions of young gals and women said between March 1981 to May 1983.

[@lorireece1970]

Mine, too!

[@michellegiardinobast6466]

I am so glad you posted this..I was so very young but remember this episode so well..

[@6828Lu]

That horndog Alan Quartermaine .... !

[@lisakanaska7687]

Where it all started I’ve been hooked since❤️

[@7789rc]

Just saw him in concert tonite he was amazing. Birchmere in DC area

[@frankieaponte7329]

I RAN HOME FROM SCHOOL TO SEE HIM WITH MY ICE CREAM 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@genericman6648]

Do you mean the "Big O" warm vanilla ice cream?

[@lorireece1970]

Bobbie and Noah were so cute together!

[@manekakapoor1612]

Yes, but I wish he had treated her with more respect.

[@dawndavis4238]

15 yrs old I would rush home from school to watch GH. Oh Dr Noah Drake was the most handsome! 🔥

[@Superchick2]

What a "hunk-on-a-stick" Spingfield was! LOL!

[@psykmeistr]

"I'LL SEE YOU AT THE CAMPUS DISCO!" HAHA 👌😂😅

[@Vesper_Songs]

No matter which doctor's office I visit, I can never find any docs as cute as Rick

[@rachybaby72]

I has a drop dead gorgeous doctor for a short while. It was hard to undress in front of him. 😄

[@Vesper_Songs]

@@rachybaby72 I would think it would be easy to undress for him, LOL

[@twistedviewlabs]

He still looks good btw.

[@tieKenanga]

When I was at junior high school. It was the first time I liked Rick Springfield. He was very handsome and looked nice.

[@tieKenanga]

@RickSpringfield651 thank you on you reply,it makes me happy, I just wanna tell you I like your songs. Rick is so cool with your work in music. I keep videos Nick night, Human Target and High Tide 😄😄 you together with sexy women. I liked your energic performance with your band in live in Nurburg. I have your pictures on my bedroom's wall your young picture and elder picture. I cried remembered to my late beloved mother when I listened to your old song " mother can you carry me ". I think we have the same feeling that we really love our mother very much. I hope you are always healthy, fine and happy with your family. Iam sorry if you find some mistakes in this writing because Iam from Indonesia.❤❤❤❤❤.

[@tieKenanga]

@RickSpringfield651 sure

[@angelacamlin4901]

Such a ham...my mother got me started on this show as a kid. I made it a point to stop whatever I was doing to watch Rick in action. Not many singers can act. He is one if very few. I loved his role on Human Target and the pilot movie Nick At Night. Wished he had continued on the tv show. He made a great vampire. Chris Sarandon in Fright Night did as well.

[@twistedviewlabs]

He did great on Hard To Hold even if it was a crap movie. Being a huge fan of his music, I still watch it if it pops on the 📺

[@malrosee9450]

The Quartermains and the others. This was a great show.

[@sarahswomley2580]

Back when the nurses wore caps and dresses and stockings instead to scrubs or suits like everyone else

[@jad8123]

And, then came along Jessie’s Girl. He had quite entry with GH. Too bad that Bobbie & Noah never had the big soap wedding. Rick Springfield left after his first contract ended.

[@Maranatha936]

So, the guy who sang one of my all time favourite songs, Jessie's Girl, looked like this ?? 😦😍❤️

[@laurietijerina3816]

Bobbies expression looked as if she was in High School all over again. 😃

[@manekakapoor1612]

Saying this as a third generation actress on both sides, Rick is an excellent actor. He took his study seriously.

[@Yesica1993]

So many memories!

[@williamslashanda9267]

Everyone want to meet every soap opera in Springfield and different state cities and Country a capital face to face and get to know them very well

[@MariaLima-vi8vg]

RIP Jackie Zeman

[@sothiachhoeum87]

Very handsome Rick ❤️🥰😘😍

[@sothiachhoeum87]

Beautiful sweet smile ❤️🥰😘😍

[@vinaymulukutla358]

I've never actually heard him speaking in his native Australian accent. I don't know whether he switches effortlessly between both or if his accent has become Americanised after becoming naturalized in America after over 40 years of residence there. He's indeed an incredibly talented singer-songwriter and actor.

[@sarahswomley2580]

When he was playing Eli Love he got to use his real accent

[@Mitzi73]

When he came back to GH in 2006 to play Noah Drake I used to hear his Australian accent all the time. It was on and off.

[@LG-ly7pw]

He had a voice coach to get the American accent

[@darleneshe3263]

I never even knew he was Australian!😮In both his acting & singing, I’ve only heard him speak in only American accent

[@vinaymulukutla358]

@@darleneshe3263 Yup...he's from Sydney. The man also never seems to age.

[@suzzane.notsusan.1078]

Didnt miss it 2pm summertime Luke and Laura wedding OMG

[@monicajones5943]

I’m so glad that some people hadn’t made it to Port Charles: Lucy Coe, I can see Lucy trying to steal Noah from Bobbie.

[@helloyall4355]

Haha monica had her eyes set out on him right away

[@rhondabienes1329]

Bambam Boo and who would not since the first time they both saw each other at a medical convention -if I am correct about this 😏RhondaBienes

[@aljanet1514]

Really who can forget Rick Springfield after his first appearance ❤

[@nickstrapko7549]

I think Bobbi Was on his staff

[@anumrabadam9678]

I think he is gonna fit right in! je je

[@creating1_c1999]

March '81, 6th Grade. Lived mostly on the cliff notes from Loree. Monica was the biggest bed hopper before Carly and had the nerve to care where Alan was dipping his paint brush.

[@dvh3113]

This did not age well did it? lol Rick is still a gorgeous man though.

[@sl4983]

Wow, I forgot about Monica Quartermain!

[@sothiachhoeum87]

Noah Drake ❤️🥰😍😘

[@mr.orwell5680]

Jesus Christ he looks like that just like the picture on the dogs coat on that 80s album with some guy who is desperate for another man’s woman

[@TheNyteScrybe]

Jesse's Girl.. That was Rick's own dog, Ronnie. He had that album and this show at about the same time.

[@mikejones-qk2ou]

I loved Bobbi and Amy!

[@DeeGarner-sy4cd]

I got a kick out of how every, and I mean EVERY other doctor at the hospital wore white thigh length coats with the cinch in the back, and Noah was the ONLY Dr. whose Dr. coats were blazer cut, and in eggshell, ecru or light salmon.

[@tracydudley2559]

I just saw him in concert 2 nights ago

[@jenniecosio3654]

I remember when he came on 😅😅😅😅😅😅

[@jakebeauchamp3com]

5:33 that dragged out ringing noise from the register 😂😂😂

I think every rick springfield fan would pay anything to have him look at her like he did at bobby! I know I did ❤❤😊😊

[@kimberlybrown9350]

He sounds much more American here, than he did in the cartoon show Mission: Magic! (7 years before this) where he had a pronounced Paul Hogan-ish Australian brogue.

[@RosieHWeinstein-vl1nm]

Absolutely gorgeous

[@cynthiasmith4130]

So hot!!!!! Fine as wine!!! 🔥🔥🔥.. ❤❤❤.... 💃💃💃..... His music is great!!!!

[@tammymartinez7488]

Was Patrick born when Noah first came to gh?

[@sarahswomley2580]

According to his age he was born in 1978, but he could have been SORAS prior to arriving on GH. He was born in Atlanta, GA Mattie was never mentioned or appeared in GH, so it's safe to assume Patrick was born after Noah left GH since Mattie didn't die until Patrick was in HS

[@sl4983]

OMG!!!!! 345th like! He's a CUTIE!!!!

[@golden8972]

Let's play "doctor"!❤

[@snoozeking7497]

He should not have left this show.

[@habyss]

He had big plans and flopped as a movie lead in Hard to Hold.

[@snoozeking7497]

@@habyss He certainly did. He’s still out there, taking gigs whenever they become available.
