Willy deVille - Across the borderline

[@Scottieguru]

Saw Mink deVille live in a little upstairs club above Yonge street, near the gay ghetto in downtown Toronto in 1984. That show gave me the music for the rest of my life.

[@ingley5220]

Das kann ich voll verstehen, man entkommt ihm nicht mehr...

[@IngridBenesch]

In bin 77 jahre, eine Frau und kenne Willi und Mink de DeVille ihre Songs sehr gut und höre sie regelmäßig.. ich liebe gute Musik❤❤😢

[@ingley5220]

Bin bald 72 und werde Willy immer hören❤

[@patenttypen]

Das ist nicht einfach nur Musik, das ist ein Gebet, ein Gebet an Gott, ein Gebet an das Leben, an den Sieg, an die Niederlage, an Freude oder Trauer, an alles was uns Menschen bedeutungsvoll erscheinen mag. Ich liebe Willy, schlafe in Frieden, ich danke Dir...

[@utakramer139]

Das hast du schön formuliert. Ich finde ihn total überirdisch. So singt nur willy. Das macht ihm niemand nach !

[@ullig.3766]

Boooh.1000x gehört ,geträumt, geliebt,usw....soetwas gibt es nieeee wieder...Musik,die von allen Sinnen aufgenommen wird...✌️

[@EllaElsner-iy7sf]

The best version of this song I've ever heard. Willy DeVille is one of the most soulful singers ever!!

[@julieadam7425]

The Best!!! I love everything about this song!! The beautiful lyrics, his amazing soulful voice, and the rhythm of the melody!! I could listen none stop! Very touching! ❤️🎵🎼🎧

Werde in einigen Tagen 70 und höre Willy fast jeden Tag, muss einfach sein

Unforgettable

[@kneapoe51]

Willy DeVille: America's best-kept musical "secret" for FAR too long. Sadly, the world knew the unique genius of this once in a lifetime artist,long before his own Country. It truly was only after his passing that "WE" finally began to realize our profound loss. May you find the Rest & Peace that eluded you so often here.... Willy D. You are deeply missed & may we meet at some point, "Across the Borderline".

[@jamesrafferty9048]

Willy DaVille was a comet blazing across our sky. He knew exactly who he was and what his talents were and where they could take him. He lived an extraordinary life and then flamed out far too soon but never forgotten

[@kriiigern777]

He was no secret in the world. I listened to him when I was 16 (Norway). Scandinavians love country-music. It has melted into our musical culture. I think most people feel that American music is really Norwegian :D

[@maredaneva7738]

Bin im Moment sehr traurig. Muss mich mal ausweinen.😣

[@annalanzotti-venrick3989]

💔😭🙏🏼

[@sebatianalvarado7171]

im 60 down under in New Zealand ... my age hes no secret .. spanish stroll .. 70s.. mixed up shook up around same time ... here huge ... always had a following in here .. even my 33 yr old girl been brought up with him .. .. RIP

[@susangreifer2320]

It's not just the wonderful voice but the feeling in the voice--this cannot be faked.

[@elseMa5194]

Right, there is just one voice like this ❤

[@manfredmeingast]

One of the most amazing voices the world has been blessed with!!! RIP Willy

[@ingley5220]

Ich kenne niemanden mit solch besonderer, einmaliger, berührender Stimme wie Willy DeVille❤

[@EllaElsner-iy7sf]

​@@ingley5220 sehr gut gesagt, ich kenne auch keinen, wird wohl auch kaum werden !

[@kurtregotz3421]

Haben wie diesen grossartigen Musiker schon vergessen? Ein sehr kultivierter Amerikaner.

[@manfredsievers4005]

Ein oft verkanntest Genie, welches sehr gute Musik gemacht hat ! RIP

[@maredaneva7738]

Ich höre dieses Lied immer wenn ich mir soviel traurige Gedanken und sorgen mache. Danke dafür.

[@ingley5220]

Ja ich auch, er ist einfach ein Wunder.

[@EllaElsner-iy7sf]

​@@ingley5220ich hör nicht nur wenn ich traurig bin, gehört bei mir zum Alltag !Alle seine Songs sind Sooo Schööön !❤

He was a great singer, with wonderful songs I love. I'm glad to his songs. They are a wonderful legacy. Thank you Willy🙏🏻

[@ingley5220]

Yes, thank you Willy❤ Vous restez dans nos cœurs á tout jamais ❤

Just beautiful! There's no one like Willy DeVille! No one!

Willy du bist und bleibst das beste

[@vera-vt9lv]

ein wundervoller song.. willy... wir vergesen dich nicht

[@GunnarJokszies]

So viel Schmerz in der Stimme. RIP Willy.

[@errolfellows409]

Bloody Hell! This is excellent! I stumbled upon Will DeVille about an hour ago. I am blown away! I'll be 74 in a few weeks, and I've listened to MUCH music in my years - I play bass in blues and rock cover bands, and, with a buddy, have written some songs - but have never, to my utter mortification, heard of Willy, nor, obviously, listened to him. I'm in South Africa, so that can explain much! I don't know anybody who is familiar with Willy DeVille / Mink DeVille. I'm going to change that!

[@Maria-er6yz]

That was your lucky day!

[@errolfellows409]

@@Maria-er6yz Yes, Maria, it certainly was. I stroll through KZbin daily for a dose of Willy. I'm besotted!

Willy's own songs are unbelieivable but even when he sang songs written by others he made them sound even better than the originals. Willy you are my hero, sing on in heaven. I hope I find you when I cross the borderline.

A lotta people didn't know but he was living next door to Johnny Thunder when he was found dead. Saying out of respect for him, he told the press that Thunders was found lying on the floor with a guitar in his hand.

Willy DeVille was a genius, but this track (especially) also shows the benefit of having a great sideman. So often they are underrated. I saw Robin Bullock acting as sideman to Tom Paxton on his farewell tour and he was another example of their importance.
