He said “just get yourself together or we might as well say goodbye..what good is a love affair when you can’t see eye to eye”? 🔥 💯

[@valpal5051]

My dad loved this song.... RIP Dad love you

[@robertsargeant890]

This is one of the best written love songs of all time. Also Mic Mucknel has one of the smoothest voices I've ever heard . A clssic that will forever live on.

[@nathanjones4039]

I’m 41 and remember this song on the radio as a kid, damn the passion in his voice still echos in my heart today! Damn this was/is great music!

[@Chibihalo2]

This is one of those rare covers that can stand up to the original and stand on its own as well. I've always loved this version of the song.

[@theresap.3305]

I agree with you.

[@lindseybsmith]

Well said...I feel the same.

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Dup1414]

Fritz McIntyre is the tenor voice playing the piano - his contribution to this song is definitely outstanding and more than noteworthy! Love the harmony of their voices ...

[@giorgiocajati4675]

Un viaggio costruito con echi e contaminazioni linguistiche che trasmutano le mie emozioni, pulsioni e memorie..!

[@RTSMedia1]

The girl i loved liked this song so much. It was her favorite. So sad, she passed away so young... When i hear this song, I'm full of emotions and memories of her.

[@foxymoxy69]

I grew up with Simply Red forced upon me during car journeys but now, Im turning 30, willingly listen and love it, and now forcing Simply Red upon my children!

[@Eliskoopa]

+natalie moore I liked some of their songs even as a kid, but the older I get the more I like them...

[@rodkali2863]

that's the way good music passes on. of a song can carry through generations, then that's an impressive work.

[@rebeccabossard9186]

Lol same here! I'm 32 and I'm playing simply red for my 2 month old baby girl 😊👌🏽👍🏽 can't beat those classics

[@5012810]

oh yeah! at the beginning of the 90's i used to watch video 'Fairground' on MTV quite often. Although I was young I didn't really like those years nor i didn't appreciate this song at the time but now decades later Simply Red became my lifestyle! This is the music I live with!! All the best! Moscow, Russia.

[@youreaphotographerharry6552]

Who says gingers don't have souls...cause this ginger has soul brotha.

[@georgewilson1893]

Beautiful song...great rendition. A song for the ages. Pulls it out of your soul !

[@xxVJxx]

How I view each version of this song. Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes - Face to face expressing what once was no longer is, holding back none of the pain. Simply Red - Thinking to self pre or post admittance, the missing pieces, broken inside.

[@toddstackhouse1314]

Sometimes music needs to travel through the ages to find the right time to touch your soul. thanks for catching up to me.

[@tonishinn3110]

" if you don't know me by now..." ... "what good is a love affair when you can't see eye to eye?"... such strong truthful words. such an iconic voice

[@11989matthew]

Simply red = a fine wine 🍷

[@maryjanemiles3525]

Simply Red was Simply Awesome. So much power and soul in his voice. Great Song...

[@barbarabuonincontro1990]

[@jo08an09na]

I suddenly have the urge to listen to this song. Dad, thanks for the music influnce.

[@benvasilinda9729]

3 decades later and this man’s voice is still as vibrant as it was back then.

[@timirvine8925]

One of the most under-rated vocalists.

[@lucyanne958]

Fantástica essa música! Só um super cara para nós presentear com essa linda canção... Gerson Santos muito obrigada amigo.

[@רוברטובאגיו-נ9ר]

This is what music all about : passion and great lyrics . No naked girls, only one man with all his heart .

[@ghassemTHEpossem]

The kind of song that makes your stomach turn for a second when it first hits ... the rush of memories and feelings ♥️

[@jeansales9090]

Música de verdade toca no coração te faz viajar em pensamento. Amores perdidos, amores conquistados

"If You Don't Know Me by Now" é uma canção escrita por Kenny Gamble e Leon Huff e gravada pelo grupo de soul soul Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes, que se tornou seu primeiro hit após ser lançado como single em 1972, no topo do gráfico de R & B e pico no número três no gráfico Pop. Foi coberto pelo Simply Red em 1988, e tornou-se um sucesso mundial atingindo o número um nos EUA 100 Hot em 15 de julho de 1989 e chegando ao número dois na UK Singles Chart. Ele também liderou o Canadian Singles Chart.

[@gardnerbell6071]

This song will forever be on my playlist

[@JorgeGonzalez-ut3pm]

This is music to my ears !! Nothing like good old classic music.

[@BJRaef]

I remember the first time I heard "if you don't know me by now ", Me and my husband and our two little girls were driving around and my daughters were about three and two year old and all the sudden they got so quiet and moved around their heads with the song and radio stations in Amarillo -Texas were playing Simply Red songs all the time and before we know It my daughters were hocked to your songs. They are 27 and 26 years old now and still all of us enjoys all your music. I am 58 years now and just love, love your music . Yesterday I finished my school and graduated in Radiography and as soon as I passed my final exam I came home and for good solid two hours listened to Fair ground , something got me started and come to my aid and danced around with your songs with joy . During past 4 years that I was in school, your music, your energy and great great talent keep me up way pass midnight for study.(do you know how hard was go back to school in my age). God blessed you with gift of great voice. I am looking forward to come to your concert and hopefully meet you in person, May God bless you and your family . B.J-Raef

O cotidiano de um relacionamento..... Passional..intensa,...na versão do simply red ficou sensacional!👏👏

[@patrickgallimore6896]

This soulful, sentimental and sultry song is sublime...lyrically, vocally and rhythmically.

[@tamarathompkins7906]

[@Kemyetta2]

I wish you could see my face! I just KNEW this was an original and that this guy was black!!!! Still a beautiful soulful song.....but WOW!!!!

[@blondwiththewind]

+Tanya Powell The original was by a black guy...Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes....This version is a cover by Simply Red.

[@anwjuice]

Tanya L Amir well the backup singer is black fwiw

[@celine7home]

How catching are the lyrics. it says about what two lovers will always go through: doubts, fights, cracks, disbelieves. But the guy still sing to her and make her mind clear. that this relationship needs both of their efforts. He is trying the best to understand and trust the girl, so the girl should do the same to him too.

[@barbpence8784]

Céline Getaire definitely feel the same way ❤️

[@kevinharsley8105]

Great song and so close to Harold Melvin and the Blue notes - (original Artist)

well it aint "Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes" but I've still LIKED this tune by these guys forever...from the first time... but ol' Harold and the boys sure stirred my soul back in the early 70s !!! This song still does it for me !

[@Eliskoopa]

+Jerry Sullivan Have you heard Stevie Nicks' "Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You"? If not, do yourself a favor and listen to it :)

[@RCdada609]

+Jerry Sullivan Whos Harold Melvin and the bluenotes?

[@jerrysullivan113]

ask KZbin ... :-)

[@ryanfarewell189]

I still believe that harold melvin and the bluenotes had the best version, they really sang that song from their soul!

[@jerrysullivan113]

I agree ! can't imagine ANYBODY ever doing it better.

[@lucywilhelm3419]

It's very rare to find a white artist that can sing with soul and Simply Red is definitely one of them. Love his songs.

[@TheodoreLHill]

Now 2018. Simply Red. Always keep me going. I enjoy listening to the group. My late brother. Mr. Gerald J. Hill Sr. This song is for remembering all the time we had together. You will be missed. Missed. R. I. P. for life. Your brother.

[@nathanielclass2774]

Back when you didn't have to have good looks & a knowledge of auto tune make it as an artist, THIS is truly good music, by TRULY good TALENT, not a good looking guy, just a guy that has the soul in his voice to make it, before times were so superficial like they are now.

[@Eliskoopa]

+Nathan Dearman exactly, seems like these days you need to have looks before talent. And if you don't have the talent we'll still get you a dozen producers and songwriters who will do the job for you

[@pillsareyummy]

I hate to say it, however the 80s was the beginning of the end, as far as good music is concerned. The 80s was the first decade to usher in the new mantra of the music business: 'looks over substance'.

[@toddb272]

[@monvette6009]
