the baby's - everytime i think of you (live midnight special 79)

[@fivestring65ify]

This band was so underrated.

[@briankeith1147]

100% CONCUR...

[@AlTavers]

He's another one who had a unique, EXCELLENT rock voice... I was fortunate enough to have seen him twice - once with The Babys, opening for Foreigner and Ted Nugent in the mid 70s, and once as a solo artist, opening for Peter Frampton and Journey, in the early 2000s. Both times, he was flawless, live.

[@dongtingwong]

No lip syncing..no auto tune..just pure, real talent.

[@krisschedler3947]

nope, this is lip synced, at least most of it... it seems Waite's vocals may be the real deal... but I still loved the Babys

[@composerdave68]

It's ALL the original recording except for John who is singing live. Everything else...Memorex (or more likely Ampex)

[@leeroykincaid2172]

This one of the most underrated bands of the 70 / 80 era. What a tear jerking song.... Met him.. Nicest down to earth guy you would ever meet

[@derekschoenike5685]

It's a shame this song is practically nonexistent on the radio nowadays.

[@usmc-veteran73-77]

Wish us Baby Boomers could back to 1979. Loved my long hair. Would love to be 24 yrs old. Miss the 70s.

[@traceyjackson3474]

I rocked the 70's and 80's and they were completely different vibes going on baby boomers vs baby making burn outs?

[@sunlitweb]

His voice is so pure. Never a questionable note. They are all spot on.

[@75vancleave]

Oh wow this takes me back to the good old days love the midnight special with Wolfman jack and the music was freaking awesome.

[@sams220guy3]

never missed Midnight Special always had the great musical groups of the day... miss all those great times ....

[@karinradburnd9723]

God... this brings back some wicked memories!!!!

[@1irishanml]

Saw these guys warm up REO Speed Wagon at Grand Valley State in Mi. The Babys were incredible. One of the best drum solos I've ever seen. Reo rocked too.

[@pamelahunter987]

Addicted to this video. One of my favorites.

[@hifiguy9]

Seen em in the 70's with Alice Cooper. Awesome show. All general admission. $6.00 per ticket. Gone are the good days.

[@barbschneider4308]

Must have been a great show

[@lutton20]

Saw the same tour in 1979 in Denver. Alice on "From The Inside" and The Baby's on "Head First". Such a great show!

[@11UncleBooker22]

Melanie Chartoff on B.U. vocals and tambourine.

[@StrangeBrew001]

79 I was a sophomore in high school living in Hawaii. OMG, such the day and night! Thank God for memories and good times.

[@allegory7638]

Every time I think of 70's and 80's music, it always turns out good.

[@martha3kids]

Take me back to hanging on a street corner as a teenager in queens, no cell phone, no computers, but we always seemed to meet up and hang out. Rock and roll, fast car, cold beer and no drama.

[@eauhomme]

Back when a televised live appearance actually had a chance to be live.

[@markflem]

Great feel good music that unfortunately is not around any more!! But thank God for You Tube so we can revisit and keep these classics alive, because there aint too much around today that inspires this sort of feeling.

[@LesP56]

Superb. Great vocals. Catchy tune. Even the background singers are fabulous. Very nice performance. Not many people have the talent to put together something like this today. Thanks for posting that up for us.

[@markfedderson2534]

Love these performances, actually performed. John W is one of most underrated rock voices ever.

[@imxploring]

John was live but the background vocals were tracks.

[@erinkayeozga9947]

Rare clip! Brings back memories of yesteryear ... "Midnight special" and of course... "The Baby's"!

[@slmetcalf]

Have not heard this song in ages. What a blast from the past.

[@debby631]

John rocks and he was/is such a gorgeous man💙💙💙

[@atomflyer44]

No "AutoTune" back then, just pure awesome music straight from the heart.

[@GregorySmithProductions]

Man I love'd this song! I remember my 1979 pinto hatch and bad speakers:)

[@KellyGiftShop]

I always love to see LIVE Videos..This is SPECTACULAR!!!

[@purselady2]

OH MY;; i was only 17 and loved this music then;; and still DO those were the days;;;;;;; those days and music will ;NEVER be the SAME

[@oliviabell5145]

Its the song, the back up singers, the disco couple, and its HIM!!!!! So charismatic charming and cool as fuck...I likey!!!

[@bigwest7004]

Freakin' awesome song and performance. This is gold! thanks for posting.

[@plutoleaf]

One of the most underrated bands ever...

[@bobby7771117]

The Baby's were an awesome group, both musically, and on the vocals--excellent vocals! This band should have been much bigger than it was! Sincerely, BobbyK

[@Fireworxs2012]

Iowa Jam June 1980, The Baby's Journey, Molly Hatchet & Sammy Hagar...

[@Hootiebird61]

Waite is so good on stage with his cool charisma.

[@tomterahedrob]

Cosmically great tune.Its eternal,a forever tune.Man I love this!

[@Trashfished]

The great Annie Bertucci NEVER has to lip sync. Ever.

[@sandyhenk7978]

Got to see him tonight and he still sounds awesome !!!! Fantastic show !!!

[@20carrocks]

Timeless band and classic tune.

[@whydoiwant1]

full of emotion, just fantastic!!

[@joeherald7319]

Like this song, like this guy...He's hung in there pretty well. Around 2006 he did a "Missing You" duet w/Allison Krauss that did well on country top 40. IMHO this "Midnight Special" performance was really "Special" because of the backup singers...they were great. Annie Bertucci (the redhead) is an accomplished and talented performer on her own, she kicked butt on this song, a big plus for this performance.

[@daviddanser7801]

The Babys were awesome!

[@marinemom77]

timeless....God I love this!

[@JoviMoon]

OMGosh!!! One of my all time favorite songs! Great memories!!! John was sooo freakin adorable! This band put out some of the greatest music!

[@Pabst62]

LIVE music, not lip synced... Awesome.

[@BotoxBlues]

MIchael Corby..You founded a GREAT band!! You put this band together...You WERE the Babys..Too bad other can't face the truth!!! I really wish everyone could put things aside and let the band ( GROUP) re-unite!! You guys were really phenominal!!

[@happynowism]

Love love it THANK YOU

[@KellyGiftShop]

I miss the seventies . I know I'm older . It was the best time of my life!

[@lisamariepagliei3945]

I know how you feel. I was 14 when this song came out and only 11 when Isn't It Time came out. I honestly didn't believe things world change so much, and for the worse!

[@darrinros1177]

1979 through 87 I can't remember a damn thing about it. But, OMG this brings back alot. I need a shower now. What fucking carnage. Great times. Too many drugs, booze, chicks and everything I could get my hands on. Cool shit here.

[@ssilvana4]

I love this song & also Baby's it's you. Thank u I've never been seen the clip to either but always heard on the radio.

[@Michael-gy8rb]

What a sweet, sweet guitar solo!

[@radioheadkids2]

Beautiful. Live perfomances. Good days.

[@davidmcmillan9043]

I love how the one girl looks at her in amazement when she sings her part.

[@marksum1]

She's Awesome !

[@deacon072007]

WOW GREAT Video!! Loves This Classic Song !!!!

[@emmabluecaboose6898]

I’m so glad I was a kid the 70s. Remember when you first heard this? Blew my mind and body. Still does.

[@allisonpayne2097]

Excellent romantic seventies tune,that I remember well😎

[@Pdoolesct]

Wally Stocker, reallly underappreciated as a guitarist! Great rockin' band!

[@PAULMILLERPRODUCTION]

you got it brother !!!! just like the old movies..

[@TheCordeliachase81]

agree with the top comments on this page. great song.....loved the Midnight Special. ....great live music.

[@cricketlee5937]

Of coarse I love ❤️ John Waite but That backup singer is Amazing. 🎤

[@jewelsluv67]

That she is ...👍✨

[@cricketlee5937]

***** Thanks...I definitely will. I adore them!!!

[@kdbadk]

she is a great singer - she's a looker, too, it's too bad she only has one nipple

[@douglasmclean9407]

Absolutely She sounds fantastic.

[@davidmarcum8026]

The backup singer wearing Pink?

[@triskellian]

Love it!

[@BeautifulSpirit-kf5ld]

Absolutely brilliant soul vocalist. Charisma . Gorgeous. He was the biggest star of 1984. But he took a step back and let the superstar thing go. Smart man, he knows fame can kill. Bless ya John+++

[@flyersong]

Damn that is good!

[@justlilolme03103]

ahhhhhhhh the memories.... :)

[@Sparky7036]

Yes they are!

[@Zoltan3939]

i loved this band

[@vinnybking]

Great Band!!

[@Dropsy517]

What a great band....I always considered them HIGHLY underrated.

[@vizzioify]

Saw these in Chatham not long after I had my first child in 76. Been a fan ever since.Beatlebabyforever its great to hear John's still performing. Thanks redmancfan for uploading

[@NicBunnymen]

she gave that extra touch to the song.

[@DjJtown]

I remember this from my high school days. Why the hell did they break up? This was; no, still is; great music.

[@TheHoolahoof]

"Seasons come and seasons go, but our love will never die... let me hold you darling, so you wont cry.." Still chokes me up after all these years, it's impossible for me to play or even listen to this song without my eyes welling up just a bit. One of the best love songs ever written, a true masterpiece. Thanks for posting!

[@bimaging]

Just shaw a great show at the canyon club of the baby's and shot some cool pics. They have a new album coming out. Can't wait to buy it!

[@MitchGrooms]

INCREDIBLE..

[@DenPay]

GUILTY!! There is something about this song that gives me goosebumps. I use to roller skate to this when I was a kid.

[@rudchowbell]

JUST ENJOY THE GREAT SONG AND FANTASTIC SINGING

[@KPDigitalTravel]

why does everybody keep calling this the 80s? Oh, and I love this song!

[@TheTodd74]

Saw him last night in Mizner Park, Boca Raton, FL. Still a great voice! Did a great version of All Along the Watchtower!

[@TheMilagros59]

i love this

[@EVHguitarz]

I was 18...this dude had the voice..great memories

[@ACERAMGAD]

Awesomeness!

[@ClaudeDiamond]

great music

[@TheRockinryan]

I saw the Babys in 1979 or 1980. I don't think they had any female vocalists at all touring with them at that time, and they were missed. This was a great record. The extra production sold the song. When it was stripped down for live performance, it lost something.

[@i2designer]

Now we know what Peggy Bundy did before Married w/ Children ... backing vocals for the Babys!! Great song, great memories!! Thanks.

[@conan1982]

That blond backup singer is HOT ... and her voice is amazing! What a great tune!

[@cherrysunburst1959]

Incredible, Amazing, This band Rocks!!

[@Peoria3165]

Thank you, Kelly King, see what you started! Ha Ha! Have been singing this in my head all day! "Maybe I was wrong not knowing how our love should go, but I wasn't wrong not knowin' how our love would grow!" Great piano and guitar solos.

[@davidneff4213]

Love this band wish they would have last longer

[@nickos98]

great song classic.

[@Trashfished]

What a great song! What a great rockin ending to it!

[@robbo010558]

Love it, so many memories - thanks

[@jlhaxton]

So awesome. Man, I love John's voice. I miss true talent.

[@sherrybozicevich9410]

wow the memories!! love it!

[@80sVidLover]

Tru dat! In fact, almost all the vids on here from those mid/late-70's Midnight Special episodes are just awesome :)

[@lowfuellevel]

love john and the babys from the class of 1979

[@joeherald7319]

Good song. This version is especially so because of Annie Bertucci and the other backup singer, Melanie Chartoff or Mrs Demore or Patti Scialfa or whoever she is. Also, the delightfully classic 70's dancing couple, love the metallic-ball-cap-suspenders-with-no-shirt look.

[@homebuiltindoorplane]

+Joe Herald Thats Chrissie Faith. Melanie started on Fridays Tv show.

[@joeherald7319]

homebuiltindoorplane Thanks. I knew Melanie was on "Fridays" Some have said this was her. I've been trying to ID this singer. Did Ms Faith sing with Annie regularly?

[@LeftCoastBias44]

+homebuiltindoorplane... Once again, I respectfully disagree. Chrissie Faith has sung backup for many acts, but this isn't her. Still trying to verify that it really IS Melanie Chartoff...

[@homebuiltindoorplane]

+LeftCoastBias44 No, I checked, and its common knowledge. Melanie Chartoff never played with the Babies, never. And you can CLEARLY see that this is Chrissie Faith. But hey man, lots of people are still looking for Elvis too. So knock yourself out dude:) Thanks

[@YoniFogelmanMusic]

No no!! It's Christine demore she's my choir teacher!!!

[@lyric520]

GREAT...JOB..HAVEN'T HEARD THIS SONG IN A LONG TIME..THANK YOU FOR THE POST......AWESOME....

[@marccresta5660]

Saw The Baby's at The Tower Theater back in the late 70s with a one hit wonder band called , " New England..It was a great show..They brought down the house with " Head First" and "Midnight Rendezvous "...

[@luisfran04]

hermoso tema,

[@CynthiaJoyP]

Thanks for posting this.. Brings back great memories
